My billionaire husband spoils me too much -
Chapter 598
Chapter 598Christina walked for a day and a night.She squatted on a flat rock, looking desperately at the dark night sky. The stars were shining. Thesoles of her feet were burning and blistered. The fracture of her left leg became more serious. Shehad gritted her teeth and endured it since she left early in the morning.However, after walking for a day and a night, she did not reach the “market” she had expected.Was she wrong?Where on earth was this savage going with her and the animals? It was already night. The roadahead was boundless. Christina was hungry and tired, feeling her feet were crippled and numb frompain.The savage casually found a place to rest for the night. It seemed that he also felt that it was notsafe to travel at night.After a long day's walk, they finally walked out of the plain and rocky area. A few big trees appearedin front of them, which could shelter them from the sun.They rested under a big tree. The savages tied the hemp rope to a thick tree trunk, so Christina andthe animals could only move in a small area. Christina crawled on a flat rock to sit down. Theanimals looked around for grass to eat.The savage went to pick up some branches to make a fire. His fingers were too thick, so he had adifficult time using the lighter. He tried several times but still failed. Christina felt that the savagewas so strong that he might break the lighter in minutes.The savage seemed to realize how important it was to make a fire in the wilderness. If he met afierce beast, a torch could protect him.Therefore, he walked up to Christina, throwing the lighter at her feet.Christina was a little dazed. On his bearded face, there were dark eyes that were as sharp as beasts’.She dared not disobey him. Although she could not communicate with the savage, it was obviousthat he wanted her to help him make the fire.Christina lit the lighter at once with her comparatively small hand. For her, it was a piece of cake.But the savage seemed to be surprised. Just like the first time he saw Christina use a lighter, his eyeswere obviously filled with surprise. But with a thick beard, Christina could not see his expression.Christina thought that these modern tools were for “normal people” to use at the very beginning. Ifthe lighters were for the barbarians on this island to use, they should be designed into a larger size.And the metal kettle around his waist would also need to be enlarged as well if it was designed forthe barbarians.The savage may felt that if Christina starved to death, he would not be able to sell her at a goodprice, or because Christina's using a lighter made the savages think that Christina was still valuable.In short, Christina was lucky tonight. The savage threw her a piece of dried meat, which was badlysunburned. Christina could not tell what kind of animal meat it was, but at least it was not a rat.Of course, Christina would not refuse food. She picked it up and ate it. Because the jerky was sohard that she could only bite off a little of the meat from the side. Then Christina chewed it slowly.Although the meat was badly dried, it tasted good.The savage himself was also eating the jerky. It should be dried by him under the sun. This kind offood was indeed convenient for him to take out. He also drank the water in the kettle mouthful bymouthful as he ate, and soon the water was completely drunk by him.Looking at him secretly, Christina was very jealous because she was also thirsty.Animals dont lack food. They seem to be full after eating a little grass. Moreover, they are not verytired after a long journeyAlthough eating dried meat would make her salivate, Christina was still very thirsty. She looked atthe big elk which was enjoying eating the leaves on the bush. The bush was only one meter tall, andits leaves were flat, wide, and green. With their size being as large as a palm, the leaves were lookedvery fresh and juicy like those succulent plants such as cactus.They should not be poisonous since the elk can eat them.Because Christina was tied to the end by the hemp rope, it was convenient for her to move. Shedragged her injured left leg, limping over to snatch food from the elk.As she moved, the savage began to pay attention to her, and replaceing that she was eating that kindof leaf, he became confused.The leaves were bitter.Christina grabbed a thick leaf and put it into her mouth. Although it was juicy and could alleviateher thirst, it tasted bad with her whole mouth filled with bitterness.“Bro, it's so bitter! How can you eat so much?”Christina looked at the big elk with some complaints in her eyes. After looking at her with pure eyes,the elk continued to enjoy the leaves leisurely.For survival, Christina couldn't be picky about food.Although the leaf tasted bad, it was not poisonous and could quench her thirst. It was like a waterbottle for Christina She could take it out and chew it when she was thirsty.Therefore, Christina picked a lot of the leaves. She had to store some of them because she wasafraid that she would not meet them again tomorrow.Sitting by the fire and watching Christina's movements, the savage did not stop her.Christina also tried to break the stem of a bush to make her a crutch, but it was too thin.She circled around, but because the hemp rope tied around her waist restricted her area ofmovement, Christina picked up a few small branches under the big tree near her and immediatelyput them away.There were many dense vines growing on the dwarf trees around. The dark green vines were verytough. Christina was very happy to see them and then she pulled some of them out. Because thevines were too hard for her to cut, she picked up a slightly sharp stone on the ground and used it tocut the vine bit by bit.When the savage saw that Christina had slowly broken the vine using the sharp stone with her weakstrength, he frowned. Maybe he was thinking about why the vine could be cut in this way.When she didn't need to hurry at night, Christina was busy for more than half of the night tying herinjured left foot tightly with vines and a few pieces of broken stems she had picked up. With this,she wouldn't feel so painful walking tomorrow.The savage was confused and surprised by what she had done.At night on this island, there were many dews. Christina's clothes were half wet with dew. Thetemperature varied greatly in the day and at night, so Christina woke up from coldness in themiddle of the night.Lying on the flat rock, Christina was shivering with cold. With her clothes wet and cold, Christina feltvery uncomfortable.She was very tired. When she slowly opened her eyes, Christina saw the dark sky was still full ofstars. It was not dawn yet. She was now living a miserable life but she wouldn't give up. She wouldenjoy every second of sleep because she didn't know if she would die the next second so everymoment was a blessing.Christina wanted to continue her sleep without caring too much. But when she turned around, shefound that the savage was sitting beside the fire, adding firewood to it from time to time. He didn'tclose his eyes all night, and he was staring at her with his vicious eyes,Christina was shocked and became completely awake when she saw the savage’s eyes,Although this man had always given her food, Christina could not forget that he was verydangerous. She had seen him fighting with other savages. He was rough and fierce and could easilykill her.Christina did not want to die. She wanted to live. Although she knew that she was in a dire situation,she thought that she might be able to leave the island if she could make it until Patrick arrived.This was her biggest hope now.Christina sat in a daze, while the savage at the opposite of the fire watched her thoughtfully.After the sun rose, they began their journey again.After walking for days, Christina gained more experience. She hid more than half of the meat thatthe savage gave her last night and stored many succulent leaves. Besides, Christina also had fixedher broken left leg with branches.Therefore, after walking a long way today, Christina felt better than yesterday.She found that although the savage had the hemp rope in his hand, he did not pay much attentionto the animals behind him that were nibbling grass, drinking water, pooing, peeing, and so on. If hefound that he couldnt pull the hemp rope because the animals were eating grass and did not wantto walk, the man would stop to drink a mouthful of water, or check the surroundings.Therefore, Christina became bolder. When she saw that there were fruits and small tomatoes on theroad, she would deviate from the direction of the team and go quickly to pick as many as possible,because she was afraid that the savage would be angry.When savage felt the hemp rope in his hand tighten, he turned his head in dissatisfaction. SeeingChristina pulling the other end of the hemp rope by going in the other direction, he felt this smalland thin unknown animal troublesome, but he was willing to stop and wait for her.Christina, seeing that the savages didn't get angry, pushed her luck. She picked many things upalong the way, including a strong walking stick, which could be used as a weapon if necessary.She couldn't carry so many things alone so she shamelessly tied her personal belongings to theback of the yellow cow.In this way, Christina was free from carrying these things. When the little yellow cow wagged its tail,Christina fed it a handful of fresh grass as a bribe.The savage turned to look at Christina from time to time, feeling curious about what she had done.He was fine with Christina's using the little yellow cow to carry her things. As long as she didn’t cutthe hemp rope around her waist and escape, the savage would not care about what she did, so hejust let Christina do whatever she wanted.In fact, Christina really wanted to ride the big elk. She even thought about feeding the elk the kindof succulent leaves it liked regularly so that the elk would be happy to carry her.But this was just Christina's fantasy. The male elk was very tall. She had no experience riding an elk,and her left Jeg was broken. If she fell down from it, she might have to see god earlier than she wassupposed to.In the next few days, Christina gritted her teeth to walk, going through countless hardships just likeXuanzangseeking the sutra back then.Finally, on the fifth day, Christina and the savage went down a river.Christina was very excited that there was water. That's because the island was so short of dailynecessities that she felt very excited and grateful to god even for a mouthful of water.She thought about how to store some water for drinking.Then Christina looked down the river. Apart from the sound of water flowing, she seemed to hearsome noise, like that of bustling streets. She heard many people's voices from afar.They continued walking, and the more they went down the river, the more noise they hear.Christina opened her eyes wide with surprise. Finally, she arrived at the “market.”In front of them, many savages set up stalls to sell. They shouted to sell all kinds of goods includinganimals, fur, and wooden products. The best seller in the frontest stall was lighters.
