"Why didn't I realize you were so narcissistic before?" Chen Mengxi stood up from the ground, handed the clothes back to Liu Xun, and continued: "You don't have much to wear, so don't give it to me."

The plane was air-conditioned, so Liu Xun and Chen Mengxi didn't wear much because no one would have thought something like this would happen.

"It's okay. Before I joined the army, I participated in special cold-resistant training. Do you think UN special forces soldiers are easy to become?... Anyone can be one?" Chen Mengxi was very weak, so Liu Xun insisted on putting his clothes on her.

Chen Mengxi smiled, said nothing, and just wrapped herself tightly. Liu Xun opened the red wine in his hand, handed it to Chen Mengxi, and said, "Drink some wine, drinking can warm the body, it's a pity that there is no Lao Baigan here, otherwise a sip would be enough."

Chen Mengxi took the bottle, took a big sip, and then handed it to Liu Xun. Liu Xun took several gulps, put the cap on the bottle, looked at Chen Mengxi and said, "Is this considered an indirect kiss?"

"Whatever you think." Chen Mengxi turned her head away, a blush on her cheeks.

Liu Xun looked around the island. It was indeed a small island, and it couldn’t be any smaller, as it was only 20,000 square meters, which was about the size of five or six football fields.

"You stay here, I'll go take a look." After Liu Xun said this, he prepared to look around the beach. Since the passenger plane exploded on the other side of the island, there must be something floating over there. If it was food, that would be perfect.

"Wait a minute, I'll go with you." Chen Mengxi stood up, lowered his head and said softly.

"Have you recovered your strength? Can't you rest here? This island is very small and I will be back soon." Liu Xun looked at Chen Mengxi and said with a frown.

"I... I'm scared." Chen Mengxi's voice was so small that it was barely no different from the buzzing of a mosquito.

"Uh... then let's go together." Liu Xun knew that Chen Mengxi must be terrified after experiencing all these things personally, so it was normal for her to want to stay with him.

Chen Mengxi nodded and said nothing more. She didn't know why, but as long as Liu Xun was by her side, she felt safe. She didn't know what would happen if Liu Xun left her. Now Chen Mengxi's only spiritual support was the man in front of her.

Liu Xun put the red wine into his backpack, and then put two backpacks filled with food on his shoulders. He took Chen Mengxi's hand and walked forward.

Chen Mengxi did not refuse and looked at Liu Xun deeply. Liu Xun felt Chen Mengxi's gaze and looked back at her, but when Chen Mengxi noticed it, he immediately withdrew his gaze and his cheeks turned slightly red.

"I remember reading about this uninhabited island in a book. Wasn't it said to be very big? Almost as big as a town. Why is it so small now?" Chen Mengxi asked to avoid embarrassment.

Liu Xun did not answer immediately. He looked around and said, "Things have changed over time. You should understand what this means, right? It could be the sea level rising or the island sinking, but who knows what happened more than 2,000 years ago? But now we are grateful for this island. Otherwise, even if we are not eaten by sharks, we will freeze to death."

After saying this, Chen Mengxi and Liu Xun fell silent. They walked for about twenty minutes, from one end of the island to the other. Suddenly, Chen Mengxi seemed to have discovered something and said, "Hey, there seems to be something ahead."

"I saw it. It wasn't a thing, it was a corpse." Liu Xun had noticed it a long time ago, but he hadn't said anything because he was afraid of scaring Chen Mengxi.

As expected, as Liu Xun finished speaking, Chen Mengxi's face turned pale, and she turned her head to Liu Xun's shoulder, not looking at those things.

"Okay, you wait here." When they were twenty meters away from the corpse, Liu Xun put down his backpack, asked Chen Mengxi to wait here, and walked towards the corpse.

When he walked in, he saw that the three bodies were blue all over, just like zombies in the movie! Liu Xun knew that these three people did not drown, but froze to death.

"Did they... freeze to death?" At some point, Chen Mengxi came behind Liu Xun. It seemed that she didn't feel safe even if she was twenty meters away from Liu Xun.

"Yes, the flow of the seawater is favorable to us, but unfavorable to them! They are already exhausted after swimming here, and have no time to make a fire! And judging from the current situation, they have not swum to the island, but are not far from it."

Sometimes luck is also part of strength. For example, if Liu Xun and his companions encounter a countercurrent now, although Liu Xun can survive, Chen Mengxi will definitely die.

"Bury them, they are all unfortunate people." Liu Xun shook his head and prepared to find a pothole, but he realized at this time that there were no potholes on this island.

With a helpless sigh, Liu Xun could only pick up handfuls of stones and sprinkle them on the three corpses.

Chen Mengxi also squatted down to help. In fact, this girl had a good heart, but was not good at expressing herself. Liu Xun knew this when he met her for the first time.

After the two men buried the three bodies, Chen Mengxi looked a few hundred meters away and said in a trembling voice: "It seems that there is something there..."

Liu Xun looked in the direction Chen Mengxi pointed, smiled, and said, "Yes, this time it's something. Let's go and see what it is. If it's food... then it means we are really lucky."

When the two walked to the floating object, Chen Mengxi's expression suddenly became excited, while Liu Xun frowned slightly.

"Liu Xun, look, there really is food and drinks..." Chen Mengxi happily pulled Liu Xun's arm and said with a chuckle.

Liu Xun nodded and said, "You don't have to be so happy. The food is inedible. It has been soaked in the sea water for such a long time. It has been soaked in the sea water and will fall apart if you grab it! But the silver lining is... at least we can use these drinks and wine."

Liu Xun walked forward. The waves hit the island shore layer by layer. Some wine glasses, drinks and unopened red wine were washed here.

"Come over and help pick it up? This island is not big. We can see the other end from this end, so we don't need to separate! The plane crashed here. Maybe something will come over tomorrow. Let's wait here." Liu Xun shouted to Chen Mengxi, but he was stunned after he finished speaking.

Because Chen Mengxi's expression was full of worry, obviously worried about the future, Liu Xun took a deep breath, coughed lightly, and continued: "Don't worry, we will survive, believe me!" (To be continued)
