Chapter 0835 – King Kong (III)
Zhuang Rui didn’t think that King Kong was so big, but actually afraid of water, when Zhuang Rui went down to the waterhole to tie up the fish, King Kong just hid on the side and slapped the fish that Zhuang Rui tied up.
“Fragrant, really fragrant!”
Zhuang Rui scraped some coarse salt grains from the place where the salt was sunbathing, although the flavor wasn’t good, it always had a salty taste, which made Zhuang Rui, who hadn’t eaten salt for a long time, almost didn’t bite his tongue off in excitement.
“This dude wouldn’t be lacking salt causing his body to be full of hair, right?”
Zhuang Rui looked at the side of the King Kong who was learning from him to eat, thought wistfully, this gorilla’s learning ability is really strong, as long as he has done the action once, it can learn a lot.
“Ow hoo hoo …… hoo hoo ……”
After eating the fish in his hand, King Kong looked at Zhuang Rui again, honestly and nonchalantly took the three or four fish that were baked by Zhuang Rui’s side.
King Kong is not eating for nothing, in Zhuang Rui baked fish, it does not know where to hold a bundle of sugar cane, very flirtatious to give half of Zhuang Rui, and also gave Zhuang Rui a demonstration of how to eat sugar cane.
“Pffff ……”
Looked at the King Kong open mouth, very exaggerated outward spitting sugar cane bagasse, Zhuang Rui can not help but laugh, and King Kong stayed together for a long time, feel King Kong is like a five or six year old child general, very cute, if you praise it a few words, will let this big guy happy for a good half a day.
“Puh-puh!”
Zhuang Rui also followed King Kong’s example, spitting out bagasse, which made King Kong exceptionally happy, grinning broadly and nervously, from time to time using his fist to pound his chest.
After the excitement, King Kong looked at the sugarcane around him, hesitated a little, and then separated out several more and gently placed them next to Zhuang Rui.
King Kong’s this action, let Zhuang Rui heart some touched, in the natural world, animals for their own food, has always been very tight protection, the higher the wisdom of the animal is more so.
The more intelligent the animal is, the more so. For King Kong to behave like this, he is already not treating himself as a kindred spirit, but as his closest companion.
But when it came to eating fish, King Kong was excited enough, perhaps it was the fear of water that made him never eat fish, Zhuang Rui zapped seven or eight sea fish weighing more than ten pounds, but a large portion of them fell into King Kong’s stomach.
“King Kong, come down and take a bath.”
These two days and King Kong get along, Zhuang Rui really can’t get used to that stench on its body, I guess this dude hasn’t had a bath since birth! Zhuang Rui stood in the shallow part of the water pool and waved to King Kong.
“Oooh ……”
King Kong’s big head swung straight, its two long arms waved haphazardly, and its body kept backing up, seemingly expressing its fear of water.
“Don’t be afraid! Look, it’s okay.”
Zhuang Rui cupped up the water and splashed it towards King Kong, causing the big guy’s head and face to be covered in water stains, scaring King Kong’s hands and feet, and running out a dozen meters away in a jolt.
Probably feeling that the water did not hurt him, King Kong ran back lightly as if he was a thief, looking at a pool of clear water and Zhuang Rui swimming in the water, a little hesitant.
I don’t know if it’s the reason for holding his breath in that dive, Zhuang Rui found that he can now easily hold his breath in the water for seven or eight minutes, seeing that King Kong didn’t come over, Zhuang Rui jumped to the bottom of the water and never showed his face again.
A minute passed, King Kong just probed and looked, not much reaction.
Three minutes passed, King Kong was a little anxious, took a stick in the water to pluck around, but still do not dare to go into the water.
After five minutes, King Kong started to “ooh and aah” and tried to stretch a leg in the water.
Gorilla is the most like to learn a kind of animal, King Kong nature is no exception, see Zhuang Rui long time from the water, King Kong finally put a leg into the pool of water, and then electrocuted and raised up.
Perhaps it was the cold pool of water just now that made King Kong feel comfortable, the big guy carefully put his foot in again, slowly his whole body slid into the water, following Zhuang Rui’s movements, tossing around in the water.
“King Kong, good job!”
Zhuang Rui saw it in the water, surfaced to catch his breath and gave a thumbs up to King Kong.
The shallow part of the water pool was only more than a meter deep, King Kong had learned to swim after most of the day’s flopping in the water, and due to the nature of the animal, it was much more flexible in the water than Zhuang Rui.
This kind of instinct makes Zhuang Rui envious, he has been swimming since he was a child, but now he has only mastered the dog paddle and backstroke, look at other people’s King Kong, two arms spread, actually will be butterfly swimming, or uneducated.
Just so, the fish in the water pool suffered, gluttony of King Kong almost all the slightly larger fish, are captured clean, good in this water pool and the sea is connected, there will be fish swim in.
The next two days, King Kong simply do not want to go back, pulling Zhuang Rui live in the water pool, of course, it is responsible for catching fish, Zhuang Rui is responsible for barbecue, all day and night are cooking smoke rises.
Zhuang Rui now has nothing else, the most is time, see this new partner happy, also accompanied King Kong play up.
A few days down, the relationship between Zhuang Rui and King Kong is getting closer and closer, although the big guy looks fierce, but very careful, in order to let Zhuang Rui sleep comfortably, it actually carried a bundle of dried sugar cane branches, to Zhuang Rui as a cushion.
And both sides of the cooperation is also more and more tacit understanding, for Zhuang Rui some simple language, King Kong has been completely able to understand, unfortunately, King Kong can not speak, even so, also relieved Zhuang Rui a lot of loneliness.
In these days, in addition to baking fish for King Kong to eat, Zhuang Rui also accelerated the cleanup of the wooden house.
Big-bellied man also has the benefits of big-bellied man, in the next few days, Zhuang Rui’s archaeological work on the wooden house, there is a great progress, the reason is that there is more a demolition worker around.
Five or six days of work, the entire village was cleaned up only one wooden house left, the rest all became ruins, but the wood Zhuang Rui did not waste, all became barbecue materials.
From a dozen pieces of wooden house inside, cleaned out a large number of living utensils and weapons and armor, there are rusty spears, exquisite short axe and various styles of knight’s sword, these things are with foreign medieval style, not the local natives can be made.
The few wooden bowls inside also solved Zhuang Rui’s practical problems, holding a wooden bowl and drinking fish soup made Zhuang Rui feel that he was still living in the modern society and had not degraded to the age of apes.
The most useful should be the saw that can be used except for a little rust, this thing makes Zhuang Rui see the hope of leaving the isolated island, when the excavation of these huts is finished, Zhuang Rui is ready to make a one-wood raft.
In the excavation of these cabins, Zhuang Rui found eight more bodies, are armed and died, it seems that it should be an internal fire, is not all the people on the island at that time died together? Zhuang Rui also do not know.
However, these clues, enough to let Zhuang Rui further proof out, this is indeed a place where the pirates have survived, but why the pirates will be the lair chosen on this island, let Zhuang Rui puzzled.
Because this isolated island reefs are densely populated, in and out of extremely difficult, a careless is a shipwrecked people, just from the remains of the cleanup, Zhuang Rui did not find the answer.
For hundreds of years ago exactly what happened, Zhuang Rui did not dwell on it for a long time, but unearthed a lot of things he can use, let Zhuang Rui happy.
The clothes …… were naturally gone, and even if there were they had long since rotted.
But Zhuang Rui actually turned out a pair of calfskin boots, and in addition to some fading after the preservation of a very good, Zhuang Rui put his feet into the test, although there is a little bit tight, but more than they do that shoes to be comfortable a hundred times.
Zhuang Rui can not care that this is a few hundred years ago, directly on the feet, now Zhuang Rui head cowboy hat, waist around a piece of nitrogen dried goatskin, pedal leather boots, the body was tanned by the sun, if the face and then apply some color, the whole is like an Indian indigenous people in general.
In addition in the ruins, but also Zhuang Rui also found a pair of gold gloves in a wooden box, extremely exquisite workmanship, although after hundreds of years, still like new, this thing Zhuang Rui can not afford to wear, carefully put into the cave.
“King Kong …… is a little lighter, a little lighter ……”
There is still the last wooden house, the whole village is even cleaned up, King Kong’s demolition action is very rough, directly with the bushel-like palm, it will be pushed to the wooden house, anyway, it is not afraid of those wood hit on the body of the meat and thick skin.
The first day of King Kong’s violent demolition let Zhuang Rui look dumbfounded, this if the King Kong whole to the domestic demolition, absolutely one for a hundred ah! And also does not come with people blocking.
“Ow ……”
After pushing to the cabin, King Kong excitedly bent his right arm and posed a pose, amusing Zhuang Rui straight laugh, this is Zhuang Rui taught King Kong, now King Kong in the excitement, has been pounding the chest and styling in turn.
“Alright, go gather firewood! I’ll roast meat for you at night.”
Zhuang Rui smiled and rubbed King Kong’s neck, in the morning, a little tired of eating fish King Kong, caught another goat, King Kong’s food is very mixed, plants and animals are eaten, but in the past few days was raised by Zhuang Rui mouth tricky, in addition to baked cooked things, no longer willing to eat raw meat.
It’s just that although King Kong is smart, he still can’t learn how to grill with fire, after the fur on his body has been grilled by fire a few times, this dude will never do grilling again.
“Oooh oooh ……” King Kong, who understood Zhuang Rui’s words, happily turned around and went to pack up the dry firewood, and this was how the labor was divided in the past few days.
Zhuang Rui, on the other hand, rummaged around in the last wooden house. He had a feeling that these people came to this deserted island and seemed to have some secret, only after rummaging through the entire village, Zhuang Rui didn’t find the pirate’s treasure except for the pair of gold silk gloves.
“Huh?”
Zhuang Rui picked up a piece of folded up leather from the ground, and after opening it, he found that there seemed to be some lines drawn on it.
