Stranded on a Deserted Island and Entangled by a Green Snake 31p2

Chapter 31p2: Ship

It was a rare cloudy day. Not being exposed to the scorching sun, and without the danger of the waves, Yu Chujin became very comfortable.

Besides praising the snake from time to time, she had nothing else to do, so she focused on admiring the beautiful scenery.

Seagulls circled overhead, and fish would occasionally leap out of the sea. Everything was just right. The sea, sprinkled with silver diamonds, was even more beautiful.

She opened her arms and closed her eyes to feel the sea breeze.

Comfortable! Exhilarating!

At first, she was excited, surrounded by freedom. The sound of the waves was pleasant, the air was sweet, and everything was wonderful.

But as time passed, the excitement gradually faded.

Yu Chujin lay on the snake’s back, a little listless. The smooth and cool touch was like lying on a waterbed, but the touch was even better than a bed.

She kept moving forward, and she didn’t know how much time had passed. She had completely lost the concept of time.

How much longer would it take to swim to a place with people?

The sea view was beautiful and stunning, but after looking at it for a long time, she became numb and her eyes hurt.

Lying on her stomach for a long time also made her feel uncomfortable. Her back ached.

Although she would lie on her back from time to time, and then lie on her stomach again, constantly changing her posture, no matter how she changed, she was still uncomfortable everywhere.

The part of her body below her knees had been soaked in seawater for a long time, and she slowly began to feel a slight stinging pain.

“It’s so uncomfortable,” Yu Chujin no longer had the excitement she had before setting off. She was in pain.

“Hiss hiss,” the large snake stopped moving and turned its head to look at it.

Yu Chujin pushed its head back, “Don’t stop. Keep going. If you swim faster, I can end this torture sooner.”

She cheered herself up and seriously praised the snake.

She had to give it some encouragement. Otherwise, if it was only consuming energy without replenishing it, the large snake would be unwilling to continue its hard labor. Fortunately, the way to replenish the large snake’s energy was very simple.

She was a little hungry. Yu Chujin took out the food from the bag.

She bit the smoked meat jerky from time to time.

The meat jerky was very hard, and she couldn’t bite it off for a long time. It also made her teeth sore. The dried nectarines were a little softer, but not much better.

Yu Chujin ate a few pieces, then drank some water. After having something in her stomach and not being so hungry, she stopped eating.

She crawled forward and offered the meat jerky to the large snake’s mouth, “You have some too.”

The large snake sniffed it, uninterested.

Yu Chujin: “Aren’t you hungry? You’ve been swimming for so long. Don’t you need to replenish some food?”

The large snake’s small ears were pricked up, and it responded to it, “Bad snake.”

Yu Chujin: “?”

“How am I a bad snake? I’m a bad snake for sharing food with you?” After saying that, she slowly reacted.

The snake was not saying that she was a bad snake, but that the meat jerky she had made was a bad snake.

It couldn’t say “unpalatable,” so it could only say that the meat jerky was a bad snake.

Yu Chujin looked at the dry meat jerky, “It is indeed a bad snake. Not to mention you think it’s unpalatable, even I think it’s unpalatable.”

But there was nothing she could do about it. The only dry food she could bring out was this.

“If you don’t want to eat the meat jerky, do you want to drink some water?”

Yu Chujin took out a bottle of water from the bag and offered it to its mouth.

“Don’t eat the plastic water bottle. Just drink the water inside…”

Before she could finish, the entire plastic water bottle was swallowed by the large snake.

Yu Chujin was anxious and went to pry open its mouth, “You stupid snake! I told you not to eat the water bottle, and you swallowed it in one gulp. Although you’re a monster, a monster can’t digest a plastic water bottle, right? Spit it out quickly.”

The large snake shook its head, not letting her pry its mouth open.

Yu Chujin stopped moving and calmed down, her face showing suspicion, “Are you teasing me again? Just like the last time you ate the iron can. You definitely didn’t eat it, right? Did you just hold the bottle in your mouth?”

The large snake’s eyes darted around, not speaking.

After a while, while she was not paying attention, it secretly spat out the bottle.

Yu Chujin: “…”

Yu Chujin grumbled inwardly. It really was teasing her. And it even secretly spat it out. She had seen it, okay?

This snake was a little cunning, but really only a little.

Before long, it started to pretend to be uncomfortable, as if it were in pain from not being able to digest the plastic water bottle, and it was whimpering non-stop.

Yu Chujin quietly watched its performance.

The large snake performed for a long time. Seeing that she was ignoring it, it secretly turned its head to look at her.

Yu Chujin patted its large head, “Aren’t you bored? So childish.”

It was quite boring, but during the long time of drifting at sea, if it weren’t for the large snake’s boring antics, she might have really died of boredom.

The sun peeked out from under the clouds. The originally comfortable environment became uncomfortable.

Yu Chujin’s pig feed bag came in handy. She wrapped her whole body in the bag, leaving only one eye exposed.

Despite being tightly covered, it didn’t stop the sun from making her scalp tingle.

How much longer would it take? Would there be an end? Was their direction of travel correct? Yu Chujin became anxious.

In front, behind, left, and right, there was only the sea. There was nothing, not even another island to be seen.

She was in the middle of it, as if she had been abandoned by the world.

The sky turned red, and the sun set in the west. It was already evening.

The large snake had been carrying her forward in the sea for a whole day.

At this speed, after a whole day, there was still no end in sight. How could that be? Was this world only the sea and no land?

In common movies and TV shows, the protagonist would be floating on the sea, without food, without water, without spiritual sustenance, without anything, yet he could survive on his tenacious willpower and be rescued.

In comparison, she was well-prepared, not lacking water or food, and had the large snake for company, giving her, a novice, sufficient resources.

But despite this, she was still on the verge of collapse in an environment where there was no other sound but the wind and the waves.

Collapse, despair.

The sun had completely set in the west, and it was dark. The dark environment bred a lot of fear.

Whenever Yu Chujin heard a sound on the sea, she would become nervous.

There were many creatures in the sea that were even larger than the large snake. The large snake might not be able to defeat them. As for the creatures that the large snake could not defeat, she didn’t even need to be mentioned. She could only close her eyes and wait for death.

Who knows if it was because her emotions were gradually collapsing, but Yu Chujin began to overthink, and all kinds of negative emotions emerged.

Was it the right decision to have the large snake take her away from the deserted island? If they really encountered danger, wouldn’t she be the death of the large snake?

The snake was such a good snake. It lived happily on its own island. Why did she have to bring it into a dangerous place?

She was a little regretful, but she was also unwilling to regret it.

All kinds of messy thoughts filled her mind.

It wasn’t that she hadn’t thought about dying at sea, but her desire to go home made her desperately hold on to a glimmer of hope.

A glimmer of hope that, what if? What if it was possible?

She lay on the large snake’s back, feeling drowsy, her eyes half-open, half-closed, as if she were asleep and not asleep at the same time.

For a moment, she didn’t know where she was.

Was she a savage on a deserted island? Or was this a strange dream after she had eaten a spicy hot pot for supper and fallen asleep on a soft sofa?

Would everything return to normal after she woke up from the dream?

She had countless times hoped that everything she had experienced on the deserted island was fake, all a dream.

A nightmare. It would be fine after she woke up.

“Buzz buzz.”

What was that sound?

Yu Chujin abruptly woke up and sat up.

In the distance, a ship appeared!

A huge ship, its engine making a “buzzing” sound, and its bottom creating waves.

Yu Chujin was stunned for a moment. After she came to her senses, she frantically waved her hands and shouted.

“Here! There’s someone here! Help!”

On the ship’s deck, someone saw her.

The ship was approaching her.

Everything was so smooth, so smooth that it was a little unreal.

The ship was clearly right in front of her, but Yu Chujin couldn’t see the faces of the people on the ship clearly. She couldn’t tell whether they were male or female, tall or short, fat or thin.

She couldn’t even see their faces clearly, but she could clearly hear their voices.

“Is that a snake? Is that person sitting on a snake’s back?”

“It’s not a snake, right? It looks a bit like a dragon. Or is it a jiao?”

“Catch it! Catch this animal we’ve never seen before. It will definitely be worth a lot of money.”

“We’re rich! Quick, quick, catch that snake!”

Yu Chujin was trembling all over. She anxiously patted the snake’s body.

“Snake, let’s run! We can’t let them catch us. If you’re caught by them, you’re done for.”

“Run, run!”

She abruptly opened her eyes, her eyes bloodshot.

She had woken up from a nightmare.

A cold sweat broke out on her back. She couldn’t breathe properly. She had no choice but to take large gasps of air.

The large snake, which was swimming forward, sensed the abnormality of the person on its back, stopped moving, and looked back.

It licked her cheek worriedly.

Yu Chujin did not stop it from licking her. Not only did she not stop it, but her whole person was in a daze.

She was dazed, trembling all over, and didn’t know what she was thinking.

She suddenly broke down, or perhaps she had already broken down. She buried her face in the large snake’s body and began to sob softly.

The large snake was frantic. It nudged her with its head and let out an anxious “hissing” and “whimpering” sound.

Yu Chujin was in great pain, not physical pain, not the pain of being scared by a nightmare, but…

But she had suddenly realized something, something she had to admit.

She had never considered the large snake.

If a ship really passed by, it would mean that the large snake would definitely be discovered.

If the large snake was discovered by people, what kind of situation would it fall into?

It was obvious what would happen to the large snake. Was it that she hadn’t considered it at the beginning? No, it wasn’t that she hadn’t considered it, but that she had subconsciously avoided thinking about these things.

She just wanted to leave that broken place. She just wanted to go back. She didn’t want to be a savage anymore.

As for whether the large snake would be captured after being discovered, whether it would lose its freedom forever, whether it would be dissected for research, whether it would die.

That had nothing to do with her!

But did it really have nothing to do with her…

People, they were too selfish.

The large snake kept nuzzling her with its head and stuttered in human language, “You’re great, amazing, good snake, amazing, silly snake…”

It kept repeating these words, repeating all the phrases it knew that were used to praise people.

It was clumsily comforting her.

But the person it was comforting had a black heart, was selfish, and did not deserve to receive such pure emotions.

Yu Chujin raised her head. Through her teary eyes, she saw a large snake with only her in its eyes.

The large snake licked away her tears, “Good snake, good snake…”

Yu Chujin hugged it and nuzzled its cheek, “I’m not a good snake. I’ve never been. I’m a bad snake, a very, very bad snake.”

The large snake anxiously retorted, “Not bad, not a bad snake, not a bad snake. Good snake, silly snake. You’re great, you’re amazing…”
