chapter 15 prepare for dinner

I looked into Misako Darcy's eyes and felt that she was not lying.

Chimere came over and held my arm. I glanced at her and she shook her head.

Tarala struggled to stand up, "If she lies, I will personally throw her into the sea to feed the sharks."

I took a deep breath, looked at Misako Darcy and warned: "Don't let this happen again!"

Misako Darcy stuffed the necklace back into her chest, "I promise you, this kind of thing will never happen again unless someone does it first."

I came to Tarala and asked, "Are you okay?"

Saahira immediately said, "Misako Darcy kicked her so hard just now, how could she be okay?"

Deborah said: "Einstein, you should drive Misako Darcy away, not let her stay."

Tarala cast a grateful look at Saahira Xiaoke, patted Deborah's hand and said, "Einstein's decision is right."

Saahira stared at Misako Darcy and gritted his teeth angrily. Deborah also cast a disgusted look at Misako Darcy.

Misako Darcy returned to sit down by the stone wall completely unfazed, "Einstein, I'm hungry, when will I eat?"

I glanced at her look of needing a beating, tried hard to control my emotions and said, "Just wait, I won't starve you to death."

Tarala arranged his hair, smiled reluctantly, and said, "It's getting late, let's take a rest."

I returned to my seat and sat down. Chimere adjusted her clothes next to me and sat down as well.

Deborah and Saahira helped Tarala sit down opposite us. Tarala calmed the two of them down, and then stopped talking. No one in the camp spoke anymore. Everyone was very tired from the busy work in the morning. I took a deep breath, then lay on the sand, looked at the blue sky through the cracks in the rocks, and fell asleep soon.

After taking a nap, I vaguely heard someone calling me. When I opened my eyes and looked, it turned out to be Chimere.

I gasped and sat up. Tarala and the others had gone somewhere, and the stone opposite them was empty.

The sea breeze blew away my sleepiness. I rubbed my eyes and asked, "Where are they?"

Chimere said: "Deborah said that the pottery made in the morning is almost ready."

I glanced at Misako Darcy. This guy was leaning against the stone wall and still sleeping. So I stood up and said, "Let's go over and have a look."

Chimere nodded. She stood up, patted the sand on her butt, and followed me outside the pile of rocks.

Deborah had already taken out the pottery from the burning pit. We walked forward and Tarala said happily: "Success."

Saahira clapped his hands and said, "Sister Deborah, you are so awesome. The pots and bowls are so beautiful. We can finally drink hot water and eat hot food!"

Deborah said: "Low-temperature pottery is easy to burn and crack. This time we were lucky and it was also the result of everyone's joint efforts."

Tarala said: "Okay, let's go to the woods to collect some more firewood, and Einstein will kill the elephant turtle. Let's have a big dinner tonight!"

Saahira clapped his hands and cheered, and Chimere and Deborah also showed smiles. It seemed that the unhappiness of the afternoon had disappeared with the completion of the pots and bowls. Now everyone was thinking about eating hot water and food as soon as possible. .

Tarala took them to the woods to collect firewood. I took out my sailor's knife and came to the pile of rocks.

The turtle was still tied to the shelf, and the bark rope that tied him was already very loose, but this guy still had his head curled up and didn't move, which showed how timid he really was. No wonder he became a ration for pirates during the Renaissance.

I was thinking about how to kill the tortoise in front of me. It stuck out its head and glanced at me, then retracted its head.

Misako Darcy gasped and walked out of the rubble. She crossed her arms and looked at me and said, "Why, do you want to kill this big guy?"

I stepped forward and used a sailor's knife to cut the bark rope binding it, and then flipped it over on the beach.

The turtle was turned upside down, with its head and limbs sticking out. I took the sailor's knife, held down the turtle's head, and stabbed it in directly.

Blood gushes out, dyeing the beach red. The turtle wails in pain a few times, and then its body becomes limp.

Seeing the elephant turtle slowly losing its life, I couldn't bear it, so I said to myself: "I'm sorry in order to survive."

Misako Darcy laughed and said: "Einstein, this is the first time I have seen someone who kills turtles and says sorry to turtles."

I glanced at her and asked, "What, have you ever eaten turtle meat?"

Misako Darcy nodded, "I have eaten it, but it is very troublesome to deal with. It needs to be chopped with an axe."

I got up and went to the camp to take out the hammer, and then started to deal with the turtle.

Misako Darcy had been standing aside watching the excitement, and she had no intention of coming forward to help.

I first used a hammer to split the shell on the underbelly of the turtle, and then used a sailor's knife to start dividing the meat bit by bit.

After cutting out all the turtle meat, I cleaned the turtle shell, threw the turtle meat in, and dragged it to the beach to wash it.

After washing everything, it was already dusk. I stood up and straightened my back, and raised my hand to wipe the sweat from my forehead.

"Brother Einstein, are you done? Do you need help?"Saahira shouted.

I turned to look at them and said, "Someone can help me carry it back. It's too heavy."

Saahira jogged for two steps. She first went to the camp to put down the firewood, then ran over and looked at the meat in the turtle shell and said: "Wow, Brother Einstein, you are so amazing. You can eat so much meat by yourself." It’s all taken care of and cleaned.”

I looked at Misako Darcy, who was still leaning on the stone wall and looking this way with her arms folded, and said with a bitter smile: "There is no way, some people would rather watch than reach out to help."

Saahira said angrily: "Humph! Brother Einstein, we will cook the turtle soup in a while, just don't give it to her."

I smiled and said, "Let's give it to her, so that she won't lose her temper and ruin our dinner again."

Saahira sighed helplessly. She bent down and grabbed the turtle shell and said, "Brother Einstein, let's go. I'll help you move it back."

I nodded and walked with Saahira carrying the turtle shell to the camp. I have to say that Saahira looks slender and weak, but not weak at all.

Back at the camp, Tarala had already set up the wooden frame to hang the pottery pot, and had added water to the pot.

Deborah stuffed some firewood down, then stuffed it with dead grass, and then lit it with waterproof matches.

A bright flame burst out, scorching the clay pot filled with water. After the temperature rises, the water in the clay pot begins to boil.

The hot steam was rising, and everyone had smiles on their faces. Tarala looked at me and said, "Einstein, add more meat!"
