GOR Chapter 29: A Man and a Woman Alone on a Deserted Island
When the sun was about to set, Du Wei's search finally yielded results.
He found a small puddle deep in the forest on the west side of the island. This was probably a puddle left after the rainy season. There were no beasts on the island, and the place where the puddle was located was relatively backlit. Duwei carefully checked the surroundings of the water source, but he didn't find any traces of beasts.
After tasting it and confirming that the puddle was fresh water, Du Wei felt relieved. The two boys and girls who had been thirsty for most of the day immediately threw themselves at the edge of the puddle and started to gulp down the water. Duwei couldn't help but let out a satisfied sigh as the cool water with a slightly strange taste poured into their parched throats. When the cool feeling slid down their throat, their whole body felt so comfortable that they shivered.
After drinking enough water, Du Wei immediately took off his sheepskin boots and washed them in the puddle.
"You, what are you doing?" Vivian blinked her eyes at Du Wei's movements.
"Washing shoes." Du Wei said, his hands did not stop moving. "Then use it to hold water."
"Hold water? Use shoes? "Vivian showed a strange expression.
"Of course." Du Wei curled his lips. "Besides shoes, can you find any other containers to hold water? Do you have bottles or jars? Since you don't have any, then we can only use shoes. My shoes are made of sheepskin and are very waterproof. " After saying that, Du Wei looked at the silly girl. "Don't frown, this is our only way. We don't know how long we will have to stay in this damn place. We can't stay here and guard this puddle. We have to go to the coast! If you think my shoes are too smelly, you can take off your own shoes to hold the water. "
Vivian was still in a daze. Du Wei urged her. "Hurry up. Unless you want to drink the water from my shoes tomorrow. "
Poor Vivian was probably irritated by the last sentence. She hurriedly took off her shoes in a flurry.
The female magician's shoes were also made of leather, and it seemed that the leather was better than Du Wei's sheepskin boots. After taking off her shoes, the female magician seemed to be at a loss. She was wearing white socks, but they were stained with blood. It seemed that after walking for half a day, the girl's feet had blisters, and the blisters had already burst.
Soon, the female Magus followed Du Wei's example and quickly washed her shoes at the edge of the puddle. She washed it countless times. In the end, Du Wei was a little impatient. "Washing it twice is enough. Why are you washing it so many times?"
"Shoes … shoes, dirty …"
Du Wei smiled and looked at the innocent little girl. "Hey, look, this puddle isn't big. There's only so much water. You wash and wash. Although the shoes are clean, the water is dirty. And in the end, what you drink is still the same water. "
"…" Vivian was stunned. Then, she pursed her lips and filled her boots with water. She stood up and said, "Keke, do we really have to drink this?"
"Wait until tomorrow, when you are so thirsty that you are smoking, even if the water is ten times dirtier than this, you will drink it without hesitation." Du Wei lightly said: "Okay, let's go back now."
On the way back, Du Wei was still holding the long wooden stick in front, but after walking for a while, he found that the female magician was lagging behind. Du Wei stopped and looked at her with a frown. "You'd better hurry up. It's getting late. If the sun completely sets, it will be dark here, and it'll be even more difficult for us to walk. It's hard to find our way in the forest at night. "
Vivian quickly nodded and quickened her pace to catch up. But after taking a few steps, she couldn't help but cry. "My … my feet, my feet hurt."
Du Wei frowned and walked to her side. Looking down, the girl's small feet had been pierced by thorns in several places. The originally delicate and round ankles and a few small toes were covered with mud and blood.
Du Wei sighed and felt helpless. It was indeed difficult for such a delicate girl to walk barefoot in the forest.
Du Wei's face was cold. He hung the two shoes around his neck, then turned around and bent slightly.
"Come up!"
"… Hmm?"
"I said come up!" Du Wei's back was facing the female magician. His voice was still very cold. "Hurry up. Don't waste time, I'll carry you back. "
"Keke, but …"
"No buts. Listen, little girl, we have to hurry up and get back to the Megalosaurus before it gets dark. We're not familiar with this island. God knows what's on this island. Right now, you and I don't have any ability to protect ourselves. We have to hurry up! Hurry up! Now, don't talk nonsense, come up! "
Du Wei's strict voice made the poor little Vivian not dare to refute. She immediately followed Du Wei's example and hung the shoes around her neck. Then, she obediently leaned on Du Wei's back.
After walking a few steps with the female magician on his back, Du Wei felt a little tired. After all, although his mind was that of an adult, his body was still that of a teenager … Moreover, he was a guy who was born with a weak body and was born with a congenital deficiency.
"Thank … Thank you."
After walking for a while, the female magician on his back suddenly whispered these words. Her voice was very low, so low that Du Wei almost couldn't hear it clearly. But he only snorted and didn't say anything.
And so, on this deserted island, under the cover of night, poor little Vivian leaned on the back of an unfamiliar young man. She looked up and saw the black sky peeking through the gaps between the dense branches and leaves. Looking down, she could see the young man under her moving forward with difficulty. She could also hear Du Wei's labored breathing.
Vivian suddenly felt that this little noble who bullied her and spoke so fiercely didn't seem so scary …
•
Back at the place where the two "crashed", the Megalosaurus was still sleeping. According to Vivian's stuttering explanation, after a Megalosaurus was injured, it would slowly recover after falling into a deep sleep. During this period, it didn't even need to eat or drink.
This made Du Wei relieved … Fortunately, otherwise, this amount of fresh water wouldn't even be enough for a person to drink, let alone enough to feed a dragon.
Walking with difficulty back to the temporary camp, Du Wei threw down the female magician on his back and fell to the ground, gasping for breath.
"I can't do it … … I can't do it … …" Du Wei was gasping for air like a dying man. His whole body was sore and powerless as he complained, "If it was before, let alone carrying a little girl, even if I carried her, I could still run a kilometer in one breath. But now, my body is too weak … …"
Vivian was thrown to the ground by Du Wei, but this time she didn't cry out in pain. Instead, she sat up. Looking at Du Wei gasping for breath, the silly girl suddenly jumped up. In a flurry, she plucked a big leaf from a tree and then quietly sat beside Du Wei. She raised her small hand and tried hard to fan Du Wei.
Du Wei gasped for a while and looked up at Vivian: "What are you doing?"
"I … I … I think you look very tired. I … I … I … I … I'm fanning you." Vivian opened her big eyes and said very seriously.
Du Wei couldn't help but laugh. This girl is a little silly, but she is really silly to the point of being cute: "Thank you … But, don't you know that it's early spring now and the weather is still quite cold?"
Du Wei gently took the big leaf from the female magician's hand. With a smile, he looked at the female magician's red face and said: "Well, we have to make a fire now. Otherwise, we won't be able to stand the cold at night. We don't have anything now. If we get sick from the cold, then we will be in big trouble. "
In fact, the problem of cold at night was not difficult to solve. As long as the two of them slept next to the Megalosaurus, it would be fine.
After all, that dragon was a fire dragon … But, sleeping next to such a huge monster, if the Megalosaurus casually turned over in its sleep, then the two of them would be crushed to death.
Moreover, Vivian would probably become the first magician in history to be crushed to death by her own magic pet.
Du Wei picked up enough branches and leaves to let the female magician cast a fire magic … A small fireball spell (Vivian's magic ability was now only a little bit left.)
After lighting the branches and letting Vivian hold the torch, Du Wei carried enough branches and the two of them went to the side of the beach. Du Wei made a fire. He piled the branches as high as possible and the bonfire burned very fiercely.
In the darkness, the eye-catching fire could be seen even from far away!
Du Wei sighed. This was their only hope. He only hoped that there would be some passing ship that saw the bonfire here and sent people over. Then, the two of them might be saved.
After doing all this, Du Wei was already exhausted. He sprawled on the beach and let out a long sigh.
At this moment … Gulp!
Du Wei was stunned for a moment, then heard another sound …
Gulp!
He sat up and looked at Vivian with a hint of a smile.
"I'm sorry, I have my stomach." The bonfire next to them made the female magician's face red. Vivian was a little embarrassed and held her stomach. "I-I'm hungry."
"Me too." Du Wei sighed. "It's a pity that we haven't found any small animals on this island. Otherwise, it would be good to catch two and have an outdoor barbecue here."
"Then … Then, where are the wild fruits?" Hunger probably made the female magician's mind a little smarter.
"Look around, where are the fruit trees? There aren't even any berry bushes. There are only leaves and weeds. "Du Wei sighed." Otherwise, why would I need you to remind me? "
"Then, then, where are the fish?" The female magician looked at Du Wei pitifully. "There are fish in the sea, right?"
Du Wei shrugged and looked at Vivian. "Can you swim?"
The female magician shook her head.
"I can't either." Du Wei smiled bitterly. "I'm the same as you, a non-swimmer. I don't have the ability to catch fish in the water. Moreover, during the day, I've already searched the coast. I only found some empty shellfish and conches. Unless your stomach can digest hard shells? "
"But … But I'm so hungry." Vivian pouted pitifully and blinked at Du Wei.
"I can't help it. Let's sleep for the night. Tomorrow morning, I'll find a way to get a long branch and see if I can find fish in the sea … Now is not the time. It's dark now and we can't swim. If we drown, we'll be done for."
Vivian sighed. She could only obediently sit down … Inadvertently, she sat beside Du Wei.
"Let's talk. Talking can make you forget about your hunger." Du Wei smiled. "We haven't formally understood each other yet. Speaking of which, we can be considered friends in times of trouble. "
"How can we forget about it? Understand?"
"For example …" Du Wei thought for a moment. He hugged his knees and looked at the stars in the sky. "For example, you're so young. You don't seem to be older than me, right? How did you become a great magician? This is a very amazing thing. "
"I, I don't know." Vivian copied Du Wei and hugged her knees. She sighed softly. "I, I have been with teacher since I was young. I, I have never left the house. This is the second time."
Du Wei turned his head and looked at the silly girl. He suddenly smiled. "Actually, your voice is very nice. It's sweet and soft. If you don't stutter, it would be even nicer."
"I, I'm sorry. I, I didn't mean it." Vivian blushed. "I, I haven't been good with words since I was young."
"Actually, the more you stutter, the more you need to talk. Anything, if you do it more, it will naturally be better." Du Wei smiled. "Okay, tell me about you. How did you become an eighth level magician? You're so young, but you have such achievements. I'm afraid you're the only one in the entire empire. "
"Huh?" Vivian looked at Du Wei blankly.
Du Wei sighed and smiled bitterly. "Hey, I'm praising you. You should at least give me a reaction."
"Ah … … I'm sorry. I, I … …" Vivian was a little flustered.
"Silly girl." Du Wei shook his head. "You don't seem to know anything other than magic."
Afterwards, Du Wei patiently chatted with Vivian for a while. Vivian struggled to tell Du Wei about her situation.
She, Vivian Yang, had been learning magic with her teacher since she could remember.
Only, no matter how Du Wei asked, the silly girl clenched her teeth and refused to reveal half a word about her teacher. Even Du Wei couldn't get any information out of her.
Let's just assume that her teacher was an otherworldly expert.
Vivian and her teacher lived in a secret place. According to her, it was also deep in the mountains. In more than ten years, Vivian only went out twice. Other than that, she spent most of her time at home studying magic.
All her work every day was to learn all kinds of magic knowledge, memorize all kinds of strange and difficult magic, and … … wash clothes for her teacher.
"Wash clothes?" Du Wei smiled. "You know how to wash clothes too?"
He took Vivian's little hand and looked at it. "Such soft little hands, you don't look like you know how to do chores."
"I know how to do it!" Vivian's face turned red. It wasn't clear if it was because Du Wei didn't believe her, or because she was shy because Du Wei was holding her hand. "I, I can use magic to wash … … I just need to cast a spell and the clothes will wash themselves."
"Oh … … Isn't that the same as a washing machine … …" Du Wei's heart skipped a beat.
The first time Vivian went out was when her teacher brought her to the headquarters of the Magician's Guild in the capital. There, she participated in a secret, undisclosed magic level assessment.
Before that assessment, her teacher once said, "Make those idiots in the Magician's Guild stare so hard that their eyeballs will pop out! Let them know that I have cultivated such an amazing genius!! "
And the result was … … The few magicians in the Magician's Guild who were in charge of that assessment stared so hard that their eyeballs almost popped out.
Because, from the perspective of magic, Vivian was indeed a genius! And a genius among geniuses!
A fourteen year old eighth level magician! Even if you searched through the history of magicians, there was no one like her!!
"That, that was a year ago." Vivian was a little embarrassed. "Those magicians originally wanted me to stay in the capital, but my teacher said that there was no one to wash the clothes at home, so he brought me back."
"Hmph, your teacher didn't want you to be roped in by the Magician's Guild." Du Wei of course wouldn't be as naive as Vivian. "An eighth level magician is an important figure in any place! Even in the Magician's Guild, how many magicians above the eighth level are there? Hmph … … And you are still so young. "
"Yes." Vivian blinked her eyes. She didn't quite understand Du Wei's words, but she quickly became happy. "Then that assessment, I, I passed. My teacher was very happy. He, he gave me a present, which was a blazing … … blazing sun!"
"That dragon?"
"Yes!" Vivian talked about her magic pet and immediately became excited. "That's it!"
Du Wei sighed … … What kind of person was her teacher? He actually gave a dragon as a present!!
This wasn't some cat or dog! It was a dragon!!
And Vivian stayed in her teacher's seclusion place for a full year … … Every day, she still studied magic and washed clothes.
After that, this was the second time she had come to the outside world. It was to catch the Terror Illusion Goblin that escaped … … That was her teacher's pet.
"Wait!" Du Wei suddenly jumped up. His face was filled with excitement as he looked at Vivian. "What about that Illusion Goblin? Is it still with you? "
Vivian nodded her head. She untied her robe and the small Illusion Goblin was locked in a small cage, hanging on Vivian's waist.
"Belly, oh belly, you can be saved now!" Du Wei's eyes were filled with a hungry green light as he swallowed his saliva. "Hey, silly girl! We don't have to starve anymore. Hmm, this little thing, it's so meaty, it looks very plump! Although there isn't any seasoning here, after peeling its skin and roasting it, the taste should be pretty good. "
"… …" Vivian blinked her eyes. After a while, she finally understood Du Wei's words and suddenly screamed. "Ah!! No, no, no!! You, you, you can't eat my Chirp Chirp! It, it is teacher's pet, if you eat it, I, I, I … … "
"We can't care so much … …" Du Wei said loudly. "We have been hungry for an entire day. If we continue to be hungry, we won't have any strength tomorrow. Moreover, we don't even know if we can catch any fish!"
"No, no, no, no … … don't eat my Chirp Chirp." Vivian hugged the small cage with all her might, refusing to let Du Wei snatch it away. "Don't eat my Chirp Chirp."
"Hmph! Then I'll eat your dragon! " Du Wei said loudly. "It's so big, cutting off a piece of meat to eat, it won't die, right?"
Vivian felt as though she was about to faint.
She had just thought that this little aristocrat was a pretty good person, but in the blink of an eye, he had turned into a demon!
Eat dragon? Almighty God! Just take poor little Vivian as an example! In my entire life, I have never heard of anyone who dared to have any ideas about a dragon … … and to think of it as food!
"No, no, don't eat my Scorching Sun! No, don't eat my Chirp Chirp … … Wah … … Father, Mother … … "Seeing Du Wei's fierce look, Vivian started to cry again.
Du Wei was helpless. Looking at the crying little silly girl, he could only shake his head. "This won't do, that won't do … … Hmph, fine! Tonight, I'll leave it to you. Tomorrow, I'll try to catch some fish. If I can't catch any fish tomorrow, then we can't starve to death! If we don't even have our own lives, then there's nothing to talk about! If there's really no other way, then no matter what, we can only start with this illusory demon! "
At this moment, it wasn't only Vivian who was crying. Even the fat little illusory demon that was like a meatball in the cage, this kind of high level magical beast that could understand human language, couldn't help but tremble in fear after hearing Du Wei's "declaration". A pair of bean-sized eyes stared blankly at Du Wei, its fat body curled into a ball and trembled.
Hearing Du Wei's words, Vivian was slightly relieved, but she quickly prayed in her heart … …
Almighty God! Bless poor little Vivian … … Let this demon be able to catch some fish tomorrow … … Oh no no no, it's not that poor little Vivian is greedy, it's just to save Chirp Chirp's life … … Uh, if it's possible, little Vivian can not eat fish, uh … … Or, just eat one fish a little … … I beg Almighty God … … Wuwuwuwu … … But, I'm also hungry, Vivian also wants to eat fish ah … …
