Chen Jiajia pulled Zeng Jie and swam towards the direction of the island. 's consciousness had already started to blur. Sensing that someone was approaching, he grabbed onto Chen Jiajia tightly as if she was holding onto the last straw.
After all, he was carrying the weight of a grown man.
Chen Jiajia's physical strength gradually disappeared as sshe swam slower and slower. No, he couldn't be trapped in the sea. Why was he still waiting for her? Chen Jiajia thought as she clenched her teeth and continued forward.
Fortunately, they managed to find a floating wooden board nearby that saved them a lot of energy. With great effort, Chen Jiajia and Zeng Jie finally reached the island.
”Hey, Zeng Jie, wake up.” Zeng Jie was already completely unconscious, he patted Zeng Jie's face in an attempt to wake him up.
Chen Jiajia tried to test Zeng Jie's breath and determined that he was only choking on water. She pressed down on Zeng Jie and sure enough, Zeng Jie spat out a few mouthfuls of water and started coughing.
Chen Jiajia heaved a sigh of relief and went forward to ask: ”Zeng Jie, how do you feel?”
Zeng Jie could only vaguely see that the person in front of him was Chen Jiajia. He wanted to say something but in the next second, he fainted.
After that, no matter how Chen Jiajia called out to him, there was no response. Chen Jiajia tested his forehead, probably because her upper mouth had become inflamed in the ocean, and now she had a high fever.
Chen Jiajia facepalmed, and couldn't help but let out a sigh. ”I must have owed you in my previous life.”
She looked around, but didn't see anyone. She was not only worried, but also felt that she had guessed wrongly. Why didn't they go to the island at all?
As all the communication equipment had fallen into the water, Chen Jiajia was unable to check the time and contact the others. She reckoned that after a while, the sun would set, so the most important thing for her now was to find something to eat and treat Zeng Jie's wounds.
Chen Jiajia's luck was not bad. After entering the forest and searching once, she found a cave. Inside the cave, there were some items to keep the fire warm.
She quickly bandaged Zeng Jie up and spent some effort to bring him to the cave. By the time everything was settled, the sky had already darkened.
The situation on the other side wasn't too good either. It had already been two days and he had already searched the entire area, yet he couldn't even find Chen Jiajia's figure.
”Brother, they have already tried to contact the outside world. From today onwards, you have not rested for two days. Do you want to sleep for a while?” Jianng Cheng arranged the affairs neatly and carefully asked what happened.
”I don't even know if Jiajia is still alive. How can I be at ease?” What was this called vexation? He rubbed his forehead and said.
”No, I have to enter the mountain.” What did it mean to be unable to sit still? Every second was like sitting on pins and needles to the current him.
”No, bro, this is too dangerous. None of us know what's happening in this mountain. What if something happens to you?” Jianng Cheng anxiously stopped them.
”If Jiajia comes to the island, I will definitely think of a way to find me. I need to check inside.” Why can't I give up any possibility now?
Jianng Cheng felt helpless and could only say, ”Then I'll go with you.”
When Zeng Jie slowly woke up, the only sounds around him were the dripping sound of water and crackling flames. He looked in the direction of the light source and saw that Chen Jiajia was sitting next to a bonfire, dozing off.
Zeng Jie tried to move but felt pain all over his body. Chen Jiajia did not dare to sleep in the first place, so when she heard Zeng Jie's noise, he woke up.
