Purifying Mantra Chapter 120: Keeping Pets
"Gudong, Gudong, Gudong." There is something under the pot!
Fatty and the others had already searched the entire island and made sure there was no life-threatening thing before they left me here with confidence. But after they left, the whole island was so quiet that it still made me timid.
I squatted down and put my ear close to the bottom of the pot and listened for a while. The gurgling sound was accompanied by the sound of wet sand stirring. I felt that it would not pose a threat to me, so I dug out the wet sand and held the edge of the pot to remove it. Turn to the side.
A clump of fiery red hair stained with sand emerged from the wet sand. Its body was completely covered by the sand, with only its fins flapping feebly. It's a shark! There is actually one alive.
I took a step back nervously, what should I do? Just as he was thinking about it, the shark struggled to twist his body and raised his face buried in hair.
I finally saw the legendary shark at close range under sufficient light. Its so-called face is covered with scales, the scales on its forehead are larger, and the scales in the middle of its nose are fine and pale. The bridge of the nose is slightly raised, the mouth is large and split into the cheeks, and there are no scales around the mouth, which looks like lips. It has no eyelids, bulging white eyeballs, no pupils, and only a black seed-sized sesame seed in the center.
It was dark when I was hunting, and I couldn't see the shark's eyes, so... is it normal? Or have an eye disease? Can it see me?
Soon, I got the answer from its movements. After its white eyeballs emerged from its hair, it froze in my direction and its whole body froze motionless. Thirty seconds later, it struggled hard, and a pair of arms as thin as dry wood stretched out from the sand. Its sharp and webbed claws stretched out towards me, and it made a popping sound from its mouth.
I hurriedly ran away, my heart beating fast. I could feel its anger and despair, but what really scared me was its face. It would be too traumatic for my childhood to equate a mermaid with a mermaid. It only jumped once and then collapsed in the shallow water, its tail fin splashing in the water.
I waited for a while and looked closer at it. The shutter-like gills on both sides of its cheeks hidden in the hair were opening and closing violently. Its body, which had been completely exposed to the sand, was slightly floating on the water. The scales on its silver-white and gray body and arms were falling off. The fall was severe, with mesh-like burns.
"Why are you trying to get into the aperture with your life?" I couldn't help but ask.
Of course, it won't answer me. Forget it, let's put it back into the sea. I grabbed its tail and tried to move it deeper into the water, but it didn't know what to do, so it struggled and slapped me hard with its tail, knocking me into the water.
"You are fucking sick! It's none of my business that you are seeking death yourself!" I got up from the water and yelled at the shark.
The blow just now seemed to have exhausted its strength, and it collapsed there again and struggled desperately. If I just left it stranded, it would die soon. What does that have to do with me? I brushed the water flowing from my hair and thought, walking towards the shore, it was the cat that refused my help. But how long can a stranded fish live?
I turned around and took another look at the dying shark. It died in the sea and would soon rot. There were no seabirds here to eat the corpse. I had to find a way to bury it. It would smell so bad by then. It might bring a virus plague or something.
I thought for a while, stepped into the water again, grabbed the shark's tail, and slowly dragged it towards the deep water. This time it didn't struggle, maybe it just ran out of energy. I guided it until it was chest deep in the water before letting go, but it kept lying belly up on its back, refusing to submerge into the sea.
Its tail fin was swinging, unable to move forward in the water. I didn't dare to go into the deep water without a life jacket and lifebuoy, so I had to let go and return to the shore to observe quietly.
Is it a water resistance problem? Impossible, they can come here to prove that resistance cannot be an obstacle to them. I remember that the goldfish was like this when it was about to die, with its belly facing up and feeling weak. Is it dying?
The feeling of dryness in my throat reminded me that I had delayed for too long and even forgot to replenish myself. I glanced at the shark floating on the sea again, then turned around to find my hiking bag.
Not only did Fatty and the others keep my bag, they also buried two large storage boxes next to it. They were afraid that I would not be able to find the two boxes by accident, so they deliberately sandwiched the straps of the mountaineering bag between the lids of the boxes. One box contained canned food and a tent, and the other contained every conceivable emergency item. Everything was down to detail, it seemed like it had been planned early in the morning.
I really don't understand why they went to all the trouble to exile me alone on the island. Am I in their way? If I really get in the way, wouldn't it be easier to just kill me? The old lady who bewitched me tried to stop me again and again, but she didn't harm my life. Why?
Oops, it’s such a mess. Thinking about it makes my head hurt. It’s important to save yourself quickly. I walked into the woods carrying the folding bucket I found in the storage box and the knife I took out of my bag. In order to commemorate the tornado's past, the peaceful woods left many leaves with broken roots on the ground. The strange thing is that no matter how many leaves fall, there are no fruits blown down by the wind.
Yesterday, Huang Xiao and I wandered around the woods for a long time, but we didn't see a single fruit fall on the ground. It was really strange. Did the fruit disappear into the ground after it fell to the ground? However, with these trees, I don't have to worry about fuel, food and water. Many trees were squeezed to the ground due to unplanned growth, so I could easily get the fruits.
While thinking wildly, the bucket was already half filled with water. In order to avoid waste, I sharpened a branch and plugged the hole in the tree pole. Although I repeatedly reassured myself that Fatty and the others would come back to pick me up, the feeling of being abandoned and cheated could never go away. So I was full after drinking water, but I had no appetite.
Carrying the remaining water back to the shore, I had to quickly find something to do in order to stop being depressed. First, I had to find a place to stay. I had never set up a tent, so it took a lot of time to fiddle with the pile of poles. . Then I found enough branches to last the whole night and piled them beside the tent. After doing this, it was still early and Hongxia had no intention of ending.
I huddled next to the tent and looked at the calm red sea, no! It's not completely calm now. The shark floating on the sea stirs up ripples with its tail fin from time to time.
To save it? Just think of it as passing time. I rummaged through my first aid kit, becoming more and more confused. Every line was like a mountain. I had listened to a few aquatic products classes in school, but the shark didn’t seem to belong to raising seafood, nor did it belong to the category of ornamental fish. Is it a mammal? ? Can any of the medicines I bring be used on it?
Forget it, let’s find a place for it to recuperate first! A folding shovel is an indispensable item in my backpack, and I also have all the tools for stapling a tent, so I picked a few handy ones and dug a big hole in the shallows. Then I picked up some reef blocks and used a hammer to inlay them into a shallow well. After the water in the shallow well slowly settled and became clear, I went to catch the shark.
It was already dying. When I pulled its tail fin and dragged it to the shore, its body only twitched a few times reflexively without resisting. I hope it survives, because silence makes time longer, loneliness scares me, and I need companionship.
