Others try to survive on an island, I try to survive on a raft?

Chapter 85 Lack of Martial Morality

Su Jin never expected that people could be so shameless.

He originally thought he had long been accustomed to the lowest levels of human nature and that his heart had hardened considerably.

But listening to Wang Qingmei's words—first throwing a tantrum and acting tough, then immediately changing her attitude to be obsequious when pointed at with a crossbow, and even trying to take advantage of him—his temples still throbbed, and a surge of anger rushed to his head.

Saying even a single extra word to this thing is an insult to your own ears.

He was tired of listening to the dog barking, so he pulled the trigger on his plate armor, and the harpoon bolts once again hurtled towards Wang Qingmei.

Wang Qingmei was still eagerly waiting for Su Jin's response, dreaming of exchanging rotten vegetable leaves for benefits, but she never expected that the other party would not buy it at all and would take action without warning!

She watched helplessly as the harpoon bolts flew towards her, terrified out of her wits, and let out a scream:

"My God!"

Her survival instinct made her instinctively roll to the left, narrowly escaping death once again.

There was already a harpoon bolt stuck where she had been standing; if she had run any slower, she would have been the one to be impaled.

Wang Qingmei felt a chill run down her back. She then scrambled and crawled deeper into the forest, not caring about getting covered in mud and dead leaves. She ran as fast as she could, looking utterly disheveled.

As she desperately fled, she couldn't help but turn back, shouting and cursing in a shrill, distorted voice:

"You heartless bastard! You ungrateful scoundrel! You actually dared to attack me! You have no sportsmanship at all, sneaking up on an old man like me who's over fifty!"

"You just wait! I'm not finished with you! You'll die a horrible death! May your son be born without an anus, and may you be swallowed by sea monsters the moment you step outside! May your ship sink and you drown, you despicable bastard..."

Her curses echoed intermittently through the woods, and she herself did not go far, but remained at the edge of the woods.

With a cold expression, Su Jin quickly turned the winch to retrieve the crossbow bolt, preparing to give her another shot and completely eliminate this scourge of humanity.

But Wang Qingmei seemed to know this forest much better than he had imagined, wandering around as if it were her own home, making it difficult for Su Jin to aim at her.

However, the obese figure did not run deeper into the island. Instead, it used the trees as cover, circled around, and rushed towards the other side of the island.

Su Jin frowned, adjusted the bow of the boat, and tried to chase after them from the sea to block them.

When he sailed around a reef that had protruded due to the receding tide and arrived at the other side of the island, he discovered a small, hidden beach there.

Wang Qingmei, with her body half-bent over, ignored the seawater soaking her trousers and trudged towards another island not far away!

It turns out that the waters between the two islands are unusually shallow in this area, and in some places, the reefs are even exposed at low tide!

This old shrew somehow figured out this shortcut; clearly, she came to Sweet Dew Island through this route as well.

Lin Xuan recognized the scene immediately; it was the place where she had seen her uncle being devoured by sea monsters, and a sense of unease crept into her heart.

At that moment, Wang Qingmei also saw Su Jin's sailboat approaching, and was immediately startled, almost falling into the sea.

She quickened her pace, glancing back at Sweet Dew Island with lingering affection as she ran, then casting a venomous look at Su Jin, seemingly muttering something under her breath.

However, due to the distance and the sea breeze, Su Jin and the other person could not hear what they were saying.

However, Su Jin didn't want to listen to those foul words, so he directly fired an arrow at her with a loaded crossbow.

Unfortunately, for moving targets, the projectile's accuracy is still too low because its flight speed is slower than that of a gun.

"It's empty again!"

Su Jin's face was extremely pale, and he could only watch helplessly as Wang Qingmei hid in the forest on the island.

They won't be chasing us anymore; the two islands are connected, and we have so much more room to maneuver.

If Wang Qingmei had been trapped on Sweet Dew Island, he could have played the role of a hunter, catching trapped beasts in cages.

But that won't work now. He can't do it all by himself, searching at the same time while blocking Wang Qingmei's route to another island.

As for relying on Lin Xuan, this delicate female college student?

Forget it, Su Jin felt that if this young girl encountered an unreasonable old lady, she might get brutally killed.

Researchers should just stick to doing things that require brainpower.

Su Jin withdrew his gaze and snorted coldly:

"Consider it letting her off the hook. Chasing her was a waste of my time; I'll slaughter her like a dog sooner or later!"

Just then, his sleeve was tugged; Lin Xuan was showing him another beach on the island.

He turned his head and saw that there were quite a few bloodstains on the beach of this island, which was full of lush green pastures.

Unsurprisingly, it was Wang Qingmei who did it, hunting small animals on this pasture island and essentially taking over the island for herself.

That's not all; they even tried to take advantage of Lin Xuan's island.

Su Jin had a general understanding of the current situation, but he didn't want to worry about that now. He wanted to take away the things belonging to his crew and the spoils of war first.

"Come on, let's go to your island, and then we'll cut down that ironwood tree and take it with us."

Su Jin turned the boat around again and arrived at the beach near the inland sea.

This time, he didn't lower the planks; he just lowered the rope, grabbed it, and jumped off the boat.

Then he looked up at Lin Xuan, who was still observing, and said:

"Jump down, I can catch you."

Since being upgraded to a sailboat, the boat is over 3 meters tall, a height that would frighten most people.

Lin Xuan, being a young girl, was no exception; she didn't dare to jump down with Su Jin.

Now that Su Jin was below to catch her, she gritted her teeth and jumped off the side of the boat.

"what……"

Then, Su Jin caught her steadily and gently placed her on the ground, though her legs were a little weak.

Su Jin didn't care about any of that and headed straight for the center of the forest with his iron axe.

"Keep up, I need you to lead the way."

Lin Xuan gave the man in front of her a resentful look, who didn't know how to cherish women, and then obediently followed him.

As she passed the edge of the woods, she saw scattered mulberry leaves and plump silkworms still wriggling on the ground, and a thought struck her:

"Brother Su, these are things that old lady left behind. They're silkworms! I couldn't find them anywhere."

Su Jin turned his head and a smile appeared on his lips:

"Tsk, thank goodness that guy didn't take the good stuff. Pack it up here and we'll take it with us later."

"When we have silkworms again, we can have Qiaoqiao make some clothes or silk quilts. We also need to bring back some mulberry leaves later."

Lin Xuan nodded, followed Su Jin's instructions, tidied up her things and put them aside, then quickly followed after him.

Under her guidance, the two quickly found Steelwood.

To Su Jin's surprise, he also found some modern industrial products here.

It was a maroon scarf, and it seemed like there was something wrapped inside.
