"If you give it to me, you should say 'give it to you' instead of 'give it to me'."
The young man was confused by this tongue twister, "Give it to me?"
Saying the same few words will be smoother than the first time.
"It's not 'give it to me', it's 'give it to you'." Xi Ying taught patiently.
"&*%￥#@!" The boy couldn't help but ask in his own language.
Xi Ying suddenly realized that the boy understood what she meant, but he just didn't know how to express it in Chinese.
"Forget it, it's not an important thing." Xi Ying chose to give up and stretched out her hand directly to the young man: "Thank you for your gift."
When the young man saw this, he used his long skirt to shield himself and came to the fire. Judging from his cautious look, it seemed as if he had never seen a fire before.
Wait, you've never seen fire? Xi Ying suddenly felt that maybe this was the reason why the young man did not dare to come here.
"Are you afraid of it?" Xi Ying, who asked whatever came to her mind, was also very upright.
After all, when faced with such an innocent boy, it was necessary to have a conversation in such a simple way without bullying him.
Sure enough, the young man nodded repeatedly after hearing Xi Ying's words, "*(&%￥#?"
Although Xi Ying couldn't understand it, she seemed to be able to guess what the boy meant. He might be asking: What is this
"This is called fire. It can cook the meat, which will make it more delicious." As he said that, Xi Ying turned over the game meat roasting on the fire, and a scent suddenly hit his nostrils.
The young man sniffed it, and a bright look of surprise burst into his eyes. He stared unblinkingly at the hare being roasted in Xi Ying's hands, and his saliva almost flowed down!
He has never smelled such fragrant food, and had fire cook the food? But when he eats, he always eats what he catches.
Thinking about it, the young man also took the time to take a look at the seafood he brought.
Xi Ying saw the look in his eyes, so she first took her clothes and put them on, then went over there to get all the seafood he brought over, and also opened the clam shells to see what was inside.
When I opened it, it turned out to be two clam shells of water!
There is sea water everywhere here. Where did he get the clean water from
After Xi Ying asked this question, the young man's eyes were clear and pure, "&*%$#" he said.
"Is it from where you live?" Xi Ying guessed.
"Yeah!" The young man nodded.
Sure enough, he lives on this desert island. But is he the only one on such a huge desert island? Xi Ying thinks this is impossible. And why teenagers can understand Chinese is also a question worth exploring.
"Is there anyone else with you?" Xi Ying asked the young man while stringing the seafood on the branches.
The young man now is not as afraid of fire as before. Although he is still far away, he is finally relatively close to Xi Ying.
After Xi Ying finished asking, the young man visibly hesitated - for a simple person like him, hesitation can be seen without looking carefully. He seemed to be completely incapable of pretending.
After a while, the boy shook his head.
He was lying, telling a lie that was full of loopholes without Xi Ying having to expose it.
But since he said so, Xi Ying wouldn't force him. Maybe he wanted to protect his family? Or maybe it was for some other reason.
