It was very hidden and fleeting, giving a feeling that it was gone in an instant!
"Did you see that?"
"See what!"
"That thing seemed to flash for a second!"
"I didn't notice!" Ning Shu tiptoed to look over there: "Nothing there, could it be that you're seeing things?"
Lu Zhe looked at the rising moon in the distance and said lightly: "Maybe so!"
An hour later, the two returned to the camp, but did not see anyone by the campfire.
"Where are the people? Were they taken away by the rescue team?"
"No way!"
Upon taking a closer look, they realized that the three girls had all hidden inside the shelter.
Too scared to come out, shivering in fear!
Lu Zhe asked: "What's going on with you guys?"
Tang Xiaoguo's voice came from inside: "There's a ghost...the ghost is screaming..."
"Ghost screams? What ghost screams! I just heard you three scaredy cats screaming!"
Jiang Yao said: "No, there really is a ghost!"
Lin Qianqian said: "That's right, that's right, listen, it's still screaming now!"
Auditory hallucinations?
Obviously there was nothing there!
Just then, rustling sounds came from not far away, followed by a shrieking "eee-yaa" scream.
Ning Shu felt her scalp explode as she immediately hugged Lu Zhe: "There really is something!"
Lu Zhe finally heard it too, the sound wasn't very loud, but it was shrill and ghastly!
Hearing it out of the blue like that, it really did sound like a ghost screaming!
But soon, Lu Zhe knew what was going on.
He was not scared, on the contrary, he was very excited!
"Haha, that's no ghost! Just you wait and see!"
The three girls poked their heads out at this: "It looks like Lu Zhe seems to know what's going on here!"
"Then why doesn't he tell us?"
"He's not deliberately trying to scare us, is he!"
"Scaring girls is very ungentlemanly behavior. Although Lu Zhe is a bit strange, he wouldn't be so bored as to do that!"
As the girls were talking, Lu Zhe had already grabbed a torch and dove into the woods!
Soon he dragged out a large rat!
Still making that weird sound!
The girls turned pale at the sight!
Lu Zhe swung it around: "Look, it's just a rat! The little guy stepped into the trap I set!"
"I get the logic! But why would a rat make human sounds?" Tang Xiaoguo cried out!
Jiang Yao speculated: "Could it be that the rat has turned into a demon?"
Hearing this, the girls screamed again in fright as they hugged each other!
"Many rodents will emit such weird sounds in emergency situations, it's actually an unconscious attempt to protect their kind! To keep others away from danger!"
Lin Qianqian marveled: "Life really is magical!"
Ning Shu lamented: "Incredible, rodents can even speak foreign languages now!"
"The magnificence of life is sometimes manifested in how the survival of the species is ensured. This kind of sacrificing the self to protect the whole spirit is enough to command respect. So I decided..."
As he spoke, Lu Zhe grabbed it by the tail and swung it against a rock!
With a "smack", it immediately stopped squeaking.
"To eat it!"
Then he used a small circular knife to cut open its skin, gave it a hard tug!
And the entire rat fur coat was torn off!
Then, Lu Zhe cut off its head, tail and claws, then stuck his fingers into its bloody body to scoop out the internal organs and flung them aside, then washed the body clean with seawater!
The rat quickly turned into a rat steak!
Then, he propped open its body with sticks and tied it to a tree branch!
Next, Lu Zhe pried open a sea star and scooped out the egg yolks into a hot sauce packet. He squeezed and shook it!
Letting the leftover hot oil and sea star yolks mix thoroughly together, then he spread it on the rat meat!
Finally, he grilled the rat meat over the fire!
Jiang Yao said: "Just a few minutes ago it looked so disgusting, why does it look kind of tempting now that I want to drool?"
Lin Qianqian said: "I pride myself on my cooking skills, but I don't think I could make a rat look like this!"
Tang Xiaoguo said: "Anyway, there's no way I'm eating that stuff!"
Ning Shu nodded: "I hate rats the most!"
Lu Zhe just smiled: "Even if everyone doesn't eat, that's fine, I can eat it myself!"
Ning Shu sighed: "Let me go cook up something else!"
Tang Xiaoguo said: "Class monitor, what else did you find?"
Ning Shu poured out all the things in the plastic bag!
When the girls saw the hooked mussels, they were all surprised!
"How did Lu Zhe manage to catch these things? While we could only pick up hermit crabs and sea snails?"
Ning Shu smiled and patted Lu Zhe on the shoulder: "I can teach you guys the special method he used!"
The girls started preparing food together!
Grilled scallops, then put hooked mussels, kelp and sea snail meat into an iron pot, poured in water to make soup.
Grilled coconut shreds around the fire to eat as a staple.
Compared to the first night, tonight's meal quality had significantly improved again!
Soon, the rat meat started emitting a tantalizing aroma! This kind of protein fragrance was different from seafood, it was somewhat like chicken.
It made everyone start salivating!
Lu Zhe tore off a calf and stuffed it into his mouth, chewing heartily: "So delicious, want to try some?"
The four girls looked at each other!
But it was Lin Qianqian who spoke first: "Give me a little bit!"
So Lu Zhe tore off a big rat leg and handed it to Lin Qianqian!
Although it couldn't compare to a chicken leg, it was still the meatiest part of the rat.
Lin Qianqian tore off a piece of meat and put it in her mouth: "Mmm, very tasty! Just like chicken!"
Seeing Lin Qianqian eat it, Tang Xiaoguo swallowed and said: "Well...give me some too!"
Lu Zhe ripped off another leg and passed it to Tang Xiaoguo. Tang Xiaoguo took a bite, oil dripping from her lips: "Wow, so delicious!"
Lu Zhe proudly said: "See, I told you it'd be a waste not to eat it!"
Ning Shu and Jiang Yao looked at each other, then said in unison:
"Give me a little bit too?"
After one rat split among them, although everyone only ate a bite or two, the taste of the rat meat brought everyone unprecedented comfort!
After eating the rat meat, Ning Shu used the knife to cut open some bottles, using the bottle bottoms as bowls and shells as spoons to serve everyone seafood soup and grilled coconut shreds!
The seafood soup was delicious and tasty. Everyone completely forgot that the water used to cook the soup was distilled from Lin Qianqian's socks.
Everyone ate the grilled coconut shreds while drinking the seafood soup, once again feeling happy and cozy!
Lin Qianqian marveled: "Wilderness life isn't as bad as I imagined!"
Ning Shu smiled and patted Lu Zhe on the shoulder: "Actually, we really owe it to our sports committee member!"
Jiang Yao laughed: "Of course, little Zhe would never let me down!"
Tang Xiaoguo frowned: "Hey! Little Zhe belongs to all of us, why are you talking like he's your family?"
Ning Shu said: "Don't say that, after being stranded on this deserted island, I really feel like we're all family!"
Lin Qianqian nodded: "The monitor is right! Lu Zhe has given me a new perspective on boys!"
Lu Zhe was a little curious: "What kind of perspective?"
Lin Qianqian smiled slyly: "That boys can be cute sometimes too!"
Jiang Yao looked suspicious: "Qianqian, don't tell me you're interested in little Zhe!"
Tang Xiaoguo said: "Oh yeah, aren't you into girls, Qianqian?"
