Dozens of natives pushed the canoe into the sea. There were about 20 people on the canoe. As soon as the canoe was out of the sea, a dozen or so oars rowed together, and the going was very fast. An hour later, the canoe came to the edge of the huge waves. Before disappearing, the huge waves one after another stagnated for a moment, looking like one mountain after another standing in the center of the sea. When the canoe arrived at this time, it was no longer necessary to paddle. Those huge waves caused a huge rotational force in the sea water, making the canoe spin as if being pulled by someone, while facing the huge waves, quickly He rushed over, and finally, crashed into a huge wave!

From the time the canoe crashed into the big waves, everything was like a nightmare, the same as when I came, and I was still struggling at first, I believe that if there were not a few natives on top of me, I would be killed thrown into the sea. However, after a while, I became dizzy again. When I woke up, I had escaped from the ring-shaped belt of huge waves and was already on the surface of the calm sea. My friend had begun unloading the other two smaller canoes, and he was evidently preparing to bid me farewell.I stood up, and he pointed to several bamboo tubes and told me that there was clear water in them.

He pointed to the south again and told me that if I go all the way south, I can reach land.The rest of the natives, on my canoe, hoisted a mast and lowered the sail. These natives are all talented navigators, because their sails are all made of a kind of thinner wild vine.But the effect was very good, and at once they set the canoe on a southerly course, aided by the wind. My friend and I held hands, and all the natives, jumped into the two smaller canoes, and rowed on, so far away that I soon lost sight of them. I opened a bamboo tube, took a sip of clear water by myself, and poured a little clear water on my head. The taste of salt flowers gathering on my face was really not pleasant.

But of course Luo Zhiqian never received such treatment, I just poured a sip of the elixir into his mouth to prevent him from becoming an idiot when the anti-aging hormones are not continuously replenished. I lay down in the canoe, and the canoe continued south, splashing and slapping the bows.I fell asleep first, but in my deep sleep, I was woken up by Luo Zhiqian. When I first heard Luo Zhiqian's strange cry, I was really taken aback, and sat up quickly. I didn't feel relieved until I saw that Luo Zhiqian was still tied up like a rice dumpling. Luo Zhiqian's voice was very high-pitched, and he shouted: "How long are we going to drift, you are so stupid, Po Jin and I came here with a small submarine, why don't you use this submarine?"

I sneered: Why didn't you remind me when we left? Luo Zhiqian said: I remind you, are you willing to listen? I immediately said: "Of course I don't listen. There may be other people in the submarine. Am I adding trouble to myself?"I'd rather spend a few more days at sea I just said this, and I couldn't help but screamed in my heart.I didn't use that submarine to escape because I was afraid of accidents.But if there were other people in the submarine, they would definitely go to the island to see what happened if they waited for Pokin not to return. Wouldn't that bring disaster to the natives on the island?

As soon as I thought of this, I immediately wanted to raise my voice and tell my friend, but I opened my mouth wide, but no sound came out.It was too late at this time, those natives were either struggling with the huge waves, or they had already returned to their island, even if I broke their throats, they would not be able to hear me! In an instant, I could adjust the sails and sail back in the opposite direction, but I couldn't make the canoe pass through the huge wave belt. I hesitated for a moment before asking: Is there anyone else in the submarine? A cunning expression began to appear on Luo Zhiqian's face: there was another person, he was the deputy commander of a Japanese submarine during World War II.

I looked at him for a while: You have a way to contact him, don't you?You have a walkie-talkie on you, don't you? Luo Zhiqian nodded and said: Yes, but if I want to contact him, you must first loosen the wild vines tied to my body. I looked at him again for a moment. At this time, I didn't have a gun. I was thinking about what would happen to me if he attacked me after I let go of the tie. I only thought about it for a very short time, because I believed that although I There is no gun, but I want to subdue him, it is still possible. So, I didn't say anything, and started to untie him. The knots tied by the natives are very special, and the wild vines are extremely tough. I tried my best, but I couldn't break them.

It took me a lot of effort to untie a few of the knots, making the wild rattan loose. Luo Zhiqian slowly stood up straight, and reached into his right trouser pocket. At that moment, my heart skipped a beat, Luo Zhiqian may have another weapon! As soon as I thought of this, I shrugged and rushed forward, but it was too late, before I could make the leap, Luo Zhiqian had already taken his hand out of his trouser pocket, and there was a pistol in his hand.I was stunned suddenly, of course I couldn't fight against him, and on the canoe, I absolutely had no possibility of dodging! I froze, and for a moment, I really didn't know what to do.But Luo Zhiqian obviously knew what he should do. He raised his pistol and shot me three times in a row!

In the vast sea, the sound of gunshots didn’t seem very loud, but three bullets shot into my body at the same time. I only felt several sharp pains in my shoulder and left leg. Unable to stand any longer, he fell on one side and fell on the boat. But my arm fell overboard, splashing the sea water, and the sea water splashed on my wound, which made me feel unbearable pain. I gritted my teeth and shouted: Beast, you beast, I should have left you on the island! Despite the three gunshot wounds on my body, I still struggled to stand up. However, the gun in Luo Zhiqian's hand was still aimed at my chest, making me unable to move.

Luo Zhiqian said coldly: Wesley, you will bleed to death! The three wounds on my shoulders and thighs are continuously bleeding out. Luo Zhiqian's words are not wrong at all. If my condition does not improve at this time, I will lose blood in at least another 30 minutes. Too much and you lose your life! And there was really nothing I could do to improve my situation. Even if I subdue him at this time, risking him beating me to death, what's the use?I will never be able to stop the bleeding of my three severe wounds immediately. And at this time, my wound was so painful, and my heart suddenly gave birth to that feeling of extreme fatigue that was unique before dying. I really didn't have the strength to fight him anymore!

I just lay there in the canoe with my eyes wide open, gasping for air. Luo Zhiqian laughed, his laughter was very treacherous: There is a way to keep you alive. I asked weakly: what way? I have come to the end of my life, I just feel extremely, indescribably tired, I just want to sleep, I am not even afraid of death anymore, I just want to die quickly, of course, I want more strongly Avoid death! That's why I asked him so feebly. Luo Zhiqian didn't answer me, he just opened a bamboo tube of elixir and poured half of the tube into the tube. He pushed the bamboo tube towards me, straight to my face: drink it! I froze abruptly. Luo Zhiqian said again: After drinking it, your wounds can heal miraculously, and the bullets trapped in the body will be squeezed out by the regenerated muscles. Don't forget, this is a super anti-aging essence and an elixir that enhances cell vitality! I held the bamboo tube abruptly with both hands, and put it near my mouth, I was almost stained with that white juice! However, at this moment, I thought of something: I started drinking this white juice, and I must keep drinking it! And if I don't get that white juice for a while, I will become an idiot and a living dead! This terrible consequence made me hesitate, but it didn't make me hesitate for long! Because in the current situation, I don't have much room for consideration! If I don't drink this elixir, I will be unconscious in less than ten minutes, and death will follow naturally. And I drank the elixir, even though it will cause a series of bad consequences, at least I can survive first. I opened my mouth wide and swallowed the elixir one after another.The elixir is cold, but after swallowing it, it causes a burning sensation, just like strong wine. I swallowed half of the elixir completely, and I felt very dizzy, and my vision was obviously affected. I was completely like a drunk person. I can see that the sea and the sky seem to be completely confused, and I can't tell them apart at all, and I can't see anything else in front of me except me. My body seems to be light and soft. He was floating upwards and flew up. Gradually, I felt that my body seemed to no longer exist, and my body seemed to have turned into a breath, mixed with the blue sea and the blue sky! I wanted to see how my wound changed after taking the elixir, but when I turned around, I couldn't see my body! I can't see my own body. This is only the case with extremely severe schizophrenia. Will they blame my hands?Where are my feet?In fact, his hands and feet were right on top of them, but they couldn't see them. So, have I become an incurable lunatic because of the damaged brain nerves? However, I myself know that it is not correct, I will not become a lunatic, although I cannot see my body temporarily, but my mind is still very clear, and I am still very clear about the ins and outs of everything! I simply closed my eyes, and after an unknown period of time (during that period of time, I can say that even time disappeared), I felt that my body was gradually descending. That feeling was as if he had slowly floated down from above the clouds. Finally, I felt something hard on my back again. I opened my eyes again, and I saw Luo Zhiqian first, he was throwing the gun in his hand, it seemed that he had no hostility towards me. I quickly looked at myself again, the wounds on my body were completely gone, as if I had never been shot before. However, I did get shot. Not only my memory is like this, but the blood on my body is still there, proving that I have indeed been shot. I managed to stand up, still feeling a little dizzy, but I quickly stabilized my body.Luo Zhiqian looked at me: how is it?I shook my head vigorously, trying to figure out if I was dreaming.I am very awake, I am not dreaming. But after drinking the elixir, I really can't remember the feeling of being in a daze. I smiled wryly and didn't answer. Luo Zhiqian laughed haha: Feeling very good?Yes or no?Honestly, it's the same feeling you get from taking heroin, isn't it? He asked twice if it was right, and I had no choice but to nod. Because what he said was indeed true. Luo Zhiqian was very proud, gesticulating: I believe that the natives on that island, when they first drank this juice, used it as a narcotic. Instantly love this stuff! At that moment, I only felt chills all over my body! I drank the elixir! I won't be able to leave the elixir anymore, if I don't drink it, the anti-aging effect will turn me into an idiot! I stood blankly, motionless, while Luo Zhiqian kept looking at me and smiling, after a while, he said: You don't have to be depressed, come on, let's hold hands, we can become the best partners! I saw his hand stretched out, and I could have easily grabbed his hand and thrown him overboard.But I didn't do this, because what if I threw him into the sea at this time? I have drank the elixir, and I have become a prisoner of the elixir. From now on, I can say that I have no freedom! And Luo Zhiqian was so happy that he actually thought that I would cooperate with him, that's why he knew this.Of course, I didn't throw him overboard, but I didn't shake his hand either. I was just thinking in my heart, in my strange adventure life in the past few years, I have encountered countless enemies, some are dangerous, some are cunning, and some are simply indescribable! However, among all the enemies I have encountered, none is as powerful as Luo Zhiqian. I have been defeated by him time and time again, until now, it seems that I have no possibility of turning defeat into victory! Seeing that I refused to shake hands with him, Luo Zhiqian withdrew his hand and shrugged: Whether you want to or not, I don't see that you still have a second way to go. My sanity gradually regained my composure: I can still send you back to accept the electric chair first. Luo Zhiqian kept smiling: No, you won't, you've already taken the elixir of death, and it's completely contrary to what most people imagine, a person who will never die is definitely not happy, his heart is very depressed, empty and lonely , When I think that I will never die, I even shudder, I am not wrong, what I said hit your heart, didn't I? My body vibrated again involuntarily. Luo Zhiqian was right again! Indeed, in the past, if I thought that I would never die, I might have found it very interesting and considered it a very happy thing, because in the past, thinking like this was just a fantasy, and almost everything was beautiful, but It's different now! Now, as long as I keep drinking the elixir of immortality, I can indeed become a person who will never die, but whenever I think of this, I can't help but feel chills! You don't feel so when you grow old with your dearest ones, but think about it, now I will see people around me, including my dearest ones, growing old and dying, But I am still the same, can this be called happiness?This is disgusting! Luo Zhiqian looked at me, and said slowly, "Isn't it! Does it seem to be his mantra, I just looked at him listlessly. Luo Zhiqian continued: Spiritually, we are by no means a happy person.A person with this kind of mood always hopes that there is someone who has experienced the same situation as him, who can sympathize with each other and comfort each other.I am like this, and you are like this! At this point, he paused again before concluding: So, you will not send me back to accept the electric chair! I still have nothing to say. The reason why I have nothing to say is because he is right. If I were alone, the feeling of emptiness in my heart would be even worse. It would be much better to have someone for company. However, I am a very resistant person, when I think that Luo Zhiqian is using this to control me, I naturally want to counter his words. I paused for a while, then sneered, and said: You are thinking a bit wrong, of course, I need someone who has the same experience as me, but why must I choose you? I thought Luo Zhiqian would turn pale with fright after hearing my words, but unexpectedly, he laughed out loud as if nothing had happened, and because he laughed so hard that even the canoe almost turned over. I shouted loudly: What are you laughing at? Luo Zhiqian said: You are very thoughtful, but you have not paid attention to two things. First, if I cannot avoid the fate of sitting in the electric chair, I must tell everything before I sit in the electric chair. Think about it, what will happen? What kind of result? I couldn't help but shiver. Indeed, if Luo Zhiqian tells everything, then I will definitely become a completely different person from everyone else, everyone will definitely regard me as a monster, and I will be more sad than a prisoner on death row! Luo Zhiqian sneered: Why do you think I pushed my elder brother off the cliff?When I told him everything about me, he said that he was going to announce it all. Maybe he didn't mean it maliciously, but I was already feeling extremely scared, so I pushed him down! Luo Zhiqian's few words finally solved a doubt in my heart, that is why Luo Zhiqian wanted to kill Luo Zhixun.But of course I still have many other questions in my mind, such as his identity being misidentified after the incident, or Bai Xiuqiong's attitude, etc., are all questions.It's just that under the current situation, I'm not in the mood to ask him. And Luo Zhiqian sneered twice before saying: Second, you have neglected, you have no choice! I was startled, not understanding what he meant by that, but his hand was already pointing towards the sea surface. I looked in the direction he was pointing and saw a small submarine floating out of the sea. come up. Only then did I know that Luo Zhiqian had indeed contacted by radio and notified the submarine.
