Chapter 811: Hope of Leaving this Island
When he woke up again, the dense jungle was already pitch black. He could only see threads of moonlight shining through the trees.
The moment he opened his eyes, Shi Yuting slowly sat up and the first thing he thought of was Xiangyi.
He stood up and used his sense of direction to search for Xiangyi.
Shi Yuting’s heart finally settled down when he saw Xiangyi’s body lit under the moonlight.
It had been seven or eight years since Xiangyi had followed him. Although they weren’t really brothers, they had gone through thick and thin together. The bond that had developed between them over the years would not allow Yuting to just abandon Xiangyi.
He caressed Xiangyi’s forehead. There was no fever, which meant that his wound had not worsened.
Exhausted, he sat down next to Xiangyi and leaned against the big tree. But he couldn’t relax, not even a little, due to the previous appearance of the black bear.
He did not know if there was a second or third black bear on this island, or if there were other ferocious beasts in the forest.
He glanced at the watch that had been bitten by the black bear on his wrist. This was his only hope of leaving this island, and it had already been destroyed.
Last night, he had tried calling Weiyi via her ruby, but it seemed that she had not brought the watch with her as no one had picked up the call.
Now that he thought about it, ever since she had returned to Z Country, she had not brought the watch that he had specially made for her with her. And based on how much time had passed, she should still be in the hospital.
Grandfather must have been looking for him everywhere, and Mother and Nuannuan must be taking care of Weiyi in the hospital. Other than the maids and the housekeeper, there should not be anyone else in Shi Mansion.
Thinking of Weiyi’s heartbroken look once she found out that he might have died, Shi Yuting’s heart felt a tight twist, and it was almost painful.
The night was gradually deepened. Even though he did not dare to relax, he was not physically strong. Plus, he had not eaten or drank for a day, so he gradually became sleepy. Feeling tired, he slowly closed his eyes again.
…
In the early morning, a ray of bright sunshine shone on his tattered suit jacket.
When he opened his eyes, it was so quiet that only the sound of waves and birds could be heard.
Shi Yuting’s lips were chapped and he struggled to get up. Fortunately, there were only some superficial wounds on his body and he was fine.
He turned around and found that Xiangyi was still unconscious.
He walked to the enemies who had been killed yesterday and searched them, but they had no water or food.
Although he could still tolerate not eating or drinking for a day, he needed physical strength to find a way out of the island.
His looked at the dead black bear, and he smiled sarcastically. Was this a sliver of God’s favor for him?
Exhausted, he was in no condition to catch other food, so he walked over and used a dagger to cut off a piece of meat from the black bear. Then, he found some wood to burn and roasted the bear meat to eat. Only then did he manage to maintain his strength.
His body was extremely dehydrated, but at this moment, all he could see was seawater.
Xiangyi was still unconscious, but there was nothing Yuting could do except wait. He did not dare to leave Xiangyi alone to find Tengtang Li’s transport. What if a few more beasts appeared? Wouldn’t Xiangyi become their food?
And even if he tried to carry him out, he would only give up halfway through with his current physical state. If he gave into his exhaustion, they would truly be hopeless.
