Chapter 397 The Girl and the Uncle

Scars are a man's badge.

For James, even more so.

Each of these scars on his body accompanied him from birth to death, and witnessed him crawling back to the world from hell time and time again.

When Wei Lin saw James' upper body for the first time, Wei Lin was indescribably shocked.

James smiled at Wei Lin, pointed to the longest wound on his chest, and said, "I was on a mission in Libya, and unfortunately I encountered another local armed group. During the battle, I was hit by shrapnel from a grenade. The shrapnel cut through my chest and left such a death mark on my chest."

Wei Lin covered her mouth, and felt terrified when she saw the shocking scar, and asked cautiously, "It must be very painful, right?"

"I'm not afraid of you laughing when I say it. In fact, I didn't feel it at the time, because I had passed out after the injury." James said, "When I woke up, I was already lying on the hospital bed. The doctor took out the shrapnel for me. I stitched up the wound."

"My God, it's too dangerous to be a mercenary." Wei Lin shook her head.

"That time, I lay in the hospital for two full months, and I was not able to return to the battlefield until my commander agreed to my return to the army."

Wei Lin asked puzzledly: "As a mercenary, you have to face life and death every day. Why do you have to do such a dangerous thing?"

James smiled and said, "Because of the money."

The answer is very simple, but the experience contained in it is something that a student like Wei Lin who has not yet left the ivory tower can't feel.

A penny stumps a hero, this saying is not only useful in China, it is as accurate as it is in the whole world.No one would have trouble with money. Since they were already mercenaries, it would be too fake to talk about military honors. Being a mercenary was all about money.

"Is money really that important?"

"It was important before, but not now."

Wei Lin questioned, "Why?"

James spread his hands and said: "Now we are all on this island, and there is no chance to leave here. Money has become something in another world for us, just like gold coins in computer games. Just a bunch of meaningless numbers."

Wei Lin laughed and said, "Your metaphor is really vivid."

With James chatting with Wei Lin, Wei Lin's mood improved a lot, perhaps because of the immersion in the chat, it seemed that even the sting on her thigh no longer hurt so much.

At Wei Lin's request, James explained to her the origin of every wound on his body in detail.

James’ experience is as rich as a movie. Every place he has been to is full of dangers, and every injury is a life-saving solution. Wei Lin’s stories are so tense that his heart is about to beat. come out.

Among the many scars, Wei Lin was particularly concerned about one wound. She saw a very small and thin wound under James' left chest, but the location was very dangerous, because further inside was the heart.

Wei Lin asked, "How did this wound come about?"

Suddenly, James' face became silent, and he seemed reluctant to talk about the wound.

"I'm sorry, I'm just curious. If it's not easy to answer, forget it." Wei Lin saw James' change of expression and apologized to him quickly.

James shook his head and said, "It's nothing, it's okay to tell you. This wound was left by Liana."

"Lianna? Aren't you brothers and sisters?"

"Yes, but something..."

Just when James was about to talk about the ins and outs of the wound, Song Zhixi fetched water and came back from the outside.

When Song Zhixi came back, James' task was completed. He still had to go to the island to guard and watch, so the work of taking care of Wei Lin was handed over to Song Zhixi.

When James left, Wei Lin felt somewhat reluctant.Just now the two had a very happy conversation, but now that James left suddenly, I always felt that I suddenly became lost.

"Why, don't you want him to go?"

Song Zhixi could see what Wei Lin was thinking at a glance.

Wei Lin was pierced, her cheeks turned red, and she said shyly, "No, no..."

Song Zhixi smiled and said: "Really, but I think you seem to be reluctant."

Wei Lin blushed even more, and said shamelessly, "Sister Zhixi, stop making fun of me."

"Okay, okay, let's apply the medicine, it should relieve some pain for you after smearing it with plant ash water."

Song Zhixi was just joking with Wei Lin, seeing her shy and silent appearance was very interesting, so he deliberately teased her.

When it was noon, they came back from the seashore with whole baskets of fish.

The crowd gathered firewood with high flames, and all the people on the island mobilized. The fishing efficiency was high. In just one morning, seven baskets of fish had been caught.

Seeing so many fish placed on the ground, both Song Zhixi and Wei Lin couldn't help being amazed.

Wei Lin even apologized: "I'm sorry everyone, if I hadn't been stung, I could still work with everyone."

Fang Fang waved his hand and said, "Don't think about these things. If you are injured, you should take good care of your injuries. We will talk about everything after your injuries are healed."

"This is too much!" Song Zhixi was so shocked that he was speechless.

Li Qingman said: "Several groups of fish appeared today, and we also got a big deal."

Tang Guo smiled happily: "If there are so many fish every day in the future, we won't have to worry about eating them."

"Impossible. It's because of the ocean current that brought those schools of fish to the seaside. Such a situation is rare." A Yue poured cold water on Tang Guo's head.

Fang Fang said: "Forget about these things, anyway, we have brought back so many fish now. Except for picking out these two meals, the rest are all dried fish."

Tang Guozheng: "But... I don't know how to dry fish."

"Have you forgotten Ayue?" Fang Fang smiled.

"That's right, Brother Ah Yue used to be a fisherman, so he must be able to dry fish in the sun, right?" Tang Guo came to A Yue with a smile.

A Yue nodded confidently and said, "Of course!"

Li Qingman said: "Prepare lunch first. After lunch, Fang Fang will take Teacher Lu and Lianna to go fishing, and Ayue will stay and teach us how to dry fish. Everyone except Wei Lin, Let's all help together."

Tang Guo and Rebecca entered the kitchen, busy making fried fish for everyone.

The others also took this opportunity to sit down and rest. Soaking in sea water for a morning exhausted their physical strength.

Not long after, the smell of fried fish wafted from the kitchen.

Smelling the tempting smell, everyone who was tired and hungry all drooled.

When it was time to eat, James also rushed over from the east of the island, and behind him were the two honest native brothers.
