C267 He Was Hungry Every Day
..." So much nonsense... "
"[No way...] My back hurts. It hurts every time I move. Ouch... Ouch... Ouch... It hurts! "
Linyuan had already taken off his long robe. He was wearing a light purple undergarment and his pants were tied as he stood by the pond.
He gave Bai Yi a very impatient look.
"It hurts. Don't move." He gritted his teeth word by word, "Don't even move your mouth!"
"Tch..." Bai Yi sat on a rock by the pond and muttered softly, "I'm stupid. I'm not allowed to say it... If I'm not allowed to say it, then I won't say it..."
But not long after, he was really hungry and started to bark again.
"Is it okay?! It's so hard to catch fish! These two fruits have long been digested! "
...
" Linyuan! Do you know how to catch fish?!"
...
" I'm so hungry! I'm starving to death!"
"If you keep talking nonsense, I'll roast you and fill your stomach!" Linyuan was also starving and said in a low voice.
Bai Yi curled her lips.
Fortunately, when it was almost dark, Linyuan finally caught the first fish.
The two of them returned to the spring water at the top of the mountain and shared the two frogs and a thin fish beside the fire.
There were all kinds of fruits, big and small, around them.
... "Sigh, using tools is a way to distinguish between humans and animals! We don't have tools... so the efficiency is definitely low." Bai Yi analyzed as she talked about the frog legs.
"Then you can make tools, harpoons, bows and arrows tomorrow!" Linyuan retorted unhappily.
"How could I do that!? Besides, how could I have the materials..."
"What, the tools brought by the human ancestors? You don't know how to learn?"
"Aiya... take it slow! Our main task is to get out of this predicament! And not really survive here! I don't want to die of old age with you here..." Bai Yi didn't care as she nibbled on half a fish.
Linyuan took a deep breath. "You still have the nerve to say that? You walked two steps and shouted that you were tired. The entire island was not explored yet. What a drag." As he spoke, he threw away the half fish bone in his hand.
"Then I'm a wounded person! I need to rest! You also said that you will get sick here and die because of your physical body. Right? The bone frame that I met today still hasn't made you raise your guard? We have to take care of our bodies! The body is the capital of revolution!"
" Hmph... " Linyuan coldly snorted, not wanting to respond to him at all.
"Eh? Do you think... those skeletons... Who are they? "
Linyuan shook his head. "I don't know who they are, but they should be Second Layer warriors."
"How can you be so sure?"
"I have checked, there are no bones of that density in the First Layer."
"Then it's over... Those who are at the second level will be trapped here and die... When will we have the chance to get out? "
"Not necessarily. This at least shows that our initial guess was correct. This place might not have anything to do with cultivation. "
"Nothing to do with it? Then... we can only rely on logic to break out of this predicament? "
"That's right. Hell Layer... I've heard of it from my teacher, but... I can't remember it clearly."
"Wah! Your teacher even told you this? Why don't you listen carefully! "
Linyuan impatiently waved his hand." He was drunk at that time, and all he said were drunk words. He said something like Hell Layer, a Second Layer divine artifact, but it wasn't that great... He could have come out so easily. "
" And then? How could he come out?"
"He didn't make it clear and fell asleep. He only said something about going against the trend."
" Going against the trend? You are? Mud wet? What! You only heard two words?"
" What do you mean fall and go against the trend... Let me think... "
"Go against the flow?"
"[It's possible... it's been too long, I can't remember it.]"
The two of them began to eat the fruit, and then the flames, thinking about the meaning of these words.
However, no matter what, they couldn't figure out the secret behind it.
No matter how they split the fruit into two parts, or how they changed the sound, there was nothing they could do.
There was too little information. Even if he managed to figure it out, he wouldn't be able to tell if it was true or not.
They might as well just give up on this clue. Sometimes incomplete information would only interfere with one's thoughts. It was better to not have it.
After five days of unfruitful rest and with the help of the medicinal herbs Linyuan found, Bai Yi's injuries were already much better.
She could basically walk around without any burdens and could even help Linyuan to fish.
"Have you learned physics? The physics teacher was so angry that he wanted to flip open the book..." Linyuan said with a venomous tongue, "Water! It can produce refraction of light! So the fish you see is actually at a slightly lower position! Here!"

"Really, you're really stupid! Run! You practice by yourself! I'll catch them myself today and eat them myself."
" That won't do! It's only been a few days, and I've already lost weight from hunger!"
"I'll let you starve to death!"
...
Sure enough, after catching the fish for half a day, Linyuan carried two fish, but Bai Yi did not have a single one. There were only three pitiful little frogs.
The fat fish sizzled on the flame and emitted a tempting fragrance.
Bai Yi's saliva was about to flow out... Her stomach made a disappointing gurgling sound.
He smacked his lips and looked at Linyuan pitifully.
"You want to eat?"
“ Yes, yes!"
"Call me dad."
"Dad!"
"Hmph hmph, I'll give it to you, my little boy! " Linyuan smiled evilly and passed the big fish to Bai Yi.
It smelled good... It was really fragrant!
After wolfing down the fish, he muttered, "He's so old. I'll catch two more fish for Dad tomorrow!"
Linyuan's face darkened. "If you call me dad every day, I can really raise you every day!"
"Tch... No need! I will definitely catch a big fish tomorrow! I already have a lot of experience today... Just wait and see!"
Including the fruits that she plucked, Bai Yi finally managed to barely fill her stomach.
Days passed by.
In the morning, they explored the island's topography, looking for all the ways and details to leave the predicament.
Occasionally, they would meet seniors who were also trapped here, and they would bury them. They hoped to be buried and safe.
In the afternoon, they started to worry about food and clothing, catch prey, and make straw mats...
Even though Linyuan looked like a pampered young master, he was very skilled when it came to these matters.
"I suspect that you were an artiste when you were on Earth. Yes, and you definitely have a good wife."
"It has nothing to do with that... I've lived for almost a thousand years, so naturally I know more than you. But there is one more thing, my teacher... is very lazy and let me do everything. So I know a bit about everything. "
Linyuan said and threw a woven straw mat to Bai Yi.
"You can make some soft grass on it and sleep better."
Bai Yi nodded and smiled.
Time flew by quickly. The two of them were so busy that their feet hit the back of their heads every day.
Although eating and drinking had basically been settled, they could not possibly be stuck here for the rest of their lives!
After two months, when Bai Yi's beard grew longer...
Finally, there was a turning point.
