"Ah...ah, kill me, kill me!" Muta's fragile nerves couldn't take the stimulation anymore. He screamed in agony and almost completely collapsed. He was filled with regret. If he could do it all over again, Muta would cut off his own penis rather than provoke Zhuang Rui.
"Slap!" Upon hearing Zhuang Rui call him a bad guy, King Kong slapped him without hesitation, sending Muta flying into the air before he fell back into the sea.
"Take your time, don't kill yourself..."
Zhuang Rui didn't have time to deal with Muta; there were still many gold coins and jewelry to transport. He and Peng Fei got busy, constantly loading the gold coins and jewelry onto the yacht.
After making four trips back and forth between the deserted island and the yacht, it finally got dark. The treasure on the island would probably take another trip to be transported. Zhuang Rui decided to wait until the next morning to finish transporting it before leaving the deserted island.
Although Zhuang Rui knew that no ships passed through the area within a hundred kilometers of this location, Peng Fei, fearing something might happen, stayed on the ship while Zhuang Rui returned to the isolated island.
"Ah...ah!" When Zhuang Rui was still a few hundred meters away from the island, he saw a fire on the beach, which was where he had his lunch barbecue. At the same time, screams reached his ears.
"Holy crap!" As he got closer, Zhuang Rui was startled by what he saw.
It turned out that King Kong had found a huge tree trunk and put Muta on the fire to roast him. It had probably only been a short time since then, and Muta hadn't died yet, as he kept letting out shrill screams.
"King Kong, take him away!" Although he hated Muta to the extreme, Zhuang Rui couldn't help but feel a little horrified when he saw Muta's legs charred black from the fire.
Moreover, the thought of King Kong wanting to eat him made Zhuang Rui feel uncomfortable. Eating meat was fine, but eating human flesh was absolutely unacceptable; that was Zhuang Rui's bottom line.
"Awooo!" Sure enough, King Kong really wanted to eat meat. In its eyes, there was nothing it couldn't eat, let alone the bad guy Zhuang Rui mentioned.
However, as Zhuang Rui had instructed, King Kong was quite obedient. He grabbed a piece of wood and threw it far away, landing right in the sea. The fire and water mingled, producing a sizzling sound.
When Zhuang Rui brought Mutala back to the beach, the guy was barely breathing and looked like he was going to die.
"Kill...kill me," Muta said with great difficulty as he squeezed out these words from his throat when he saw Zhuang Rui in front of him.
"good!"
Zhuang Rui nodded, went back and got an axe. Two months of living on a deserted island had made Zhuang Rui no longer have any womanly compassion.
However, Zhuang Rui was still unable to kill Muta, because when he returned to Muta's side, the ravaged Muta had already breathed his last.
"If only I had known this would happen..."
With death comes peace. Zhuang Rui stood beside Muta's body for a long time, then shook his head, dug a deep pit in the sand, and buried Muta in it.
"Awooo!" After seeing Zhuang Rui's actions, King Kong jumped up and patted his chest next to him. King Kong didn't understand why he didn't eat that guy.
“King Kong, remember this: humans, like you and me, are not to be eaten. Even if they starve to death… we still cannot eat them…”
Zhuang Rui patted King Kong on the shoulder and painstakingly conveyed the meaning that King Kong clearly couldn't understand. King Kong nodded its big head repeatedly, it was unclear how much it understood.
"King Kong, I'm leaving tomorrow and never coming back. Will you come with me?"
After Zhuang Rui grilled some more fish for Jin Gang and they finished eating, he conveyed this meaning to Jin Gang.
"Awooo!" Upon hearing Zhuang Rui's words, King Kong suddenly became agitated, pacing around the campfire all over the place. Finally, it simply took off running into the woods, ignoring even Zhuang Rui's calls.
Zhuang Rui was taken aback by Jin Gang's reaction. After spending more than two months together, Zhuang Rui was really reluctant to leave Jin Gang.
Furthermore, King Kong is the only sentient being on this deserted island, and he will be very lonely after I leave.
"Fine, let's respect its choice..."
Zhuang Rui shook his head helplessly, lay on the beach looking at the starry sky, and fell into a deep sleep. This was his last night on the deserted island.
"King Kong, King Kong!" When Zhuang Rui woke up the next day, the first thing he did was to see if King Kong had returned. However, to his disappointment, judging from the traces left on the ground, King Kong did not return to this place overnight.
Klaus's last treasure, along with the deerskin box, had already been transported to the assault boat by Zhuang Rui. After pushing the assault boat out to sea, as Zhuang Rui started the engine, his eyes couldn't help but look back at the island behind him.
"Farewell, King Kong!" The roar of the engine filled the air as the speedboat cut through the sea, leaving a white trail in its wake.
Chapter 846 Arrangement
"Will King Kong feel lonely after I leave?"
Thinking back on the two months spent with King Kong on the deserted island, Zhuang Rui felt a pang of reluctance.
Although nature emphasizes survival of the fittest and human intervention is not good, on this deserted island, only King Kong, a gorilla, exists. The arrival of Zhuang Rui also changes King Kong's lifestyle.
Deep down, Zhuang Rui wanted to take King Kong back with him. Even if he released King Kong back into the African jungle later, it would be much better than leaving him all alone on the deserted island.
It's important to know that King Kong is an intelligent primate with the intelligence of a child and extremely simple thinking. I wonder if it can endure the loneliness of being on a deserted island.
If there were any other gorillas on this deserted island, Zhuang Rui wouldn't even consider taking it away.
"Never mind, it's King Kong's own choice..."
Zhuang Rui shook his head and focused his attention on the hidden reefs beneath the sea. However, he couldn't help but turn his head to look behind him. This isolated island would bring him the most unforgettable memories of his life. "Awooo!" Just as Zhuang Rui turned around, a figure rushed out of the coconut grove, pounding his chest and roaring. Even the roar of the high-powered engine on the speedboat could not suppress King Kong's furious roar.
Zhuang Rui, nicknamed "King Kong," was stunned. He reached out and turned off the motor of the assault boat, looking at King Kong, who was standing more than 200 meters away from him.
Similarly, King Kong was also looking at Zhuang Rui. He was born on this deserted island. Except for the time when his parents died, when King Kong felt great grief, he was usually carefree and lived a very happy life.
However, after spending the past two months with Zhuang Rui, King Kong has come to regard Zhuang Rui as family. Now that Zhuang Rui is leaving, King Kong is extremely reluctant to part with him. It knows that it has to make a choice.
Following Zhuang Rui might mean never being able to return, while staying here would mean never seeing Zhuang Rui again. Jin Gang was torn between these conflicting feelings, which is why he returned to his ancestors' graves yesterday and stayed there all night.
"King Kong, come with me..."
Looking at King Kong's lonely figure standing on the beach, Zhuang Rui felt a pang of sadness and couldn't help but express his own wish to King Kong's heart.
"Awooo!" Upon hearing Zhuang Rui's words, King Kong's honest face was drenched in tears. He turned back and took a deep look at the place where he was born and raised. Suddenly, he used both his hands and feet to rush towards the sea.
"King Kong, my good brother, I'll definitely find you a companion in the primeval forest someday..."
After pulling King Kong onto the speedboat, Zhuang Rui gave the big guy a big hug and started the engine again.
However, after King Kong came aboard, the speedboat's draft became noticeably deeper, and its speed decreased.
Keep in mind that this assault boat can only carry a maximum of six people, but Golden Anchor and Zhuang Rui weigh about the same, plus King Kong, it's a miracle it didn't sink.
King Kong's curiosity about the speedboat and the unknown future quickly helped him forget the pain of leaving the deserted island and make him lively again.
Once aboard the yacht, King Kong curiously followed the golden eagle, leaping and bounding about, occasionally flexing his muscles, which made Peng Fei chuckle.
"Brother Zhuang, is this thing just sheet metal plated with gold?"
When Peng Fei saw that Zhuang Rui's last shipment onto the ship consisted of an anchor and a small box, he was a little worried. Looking at the gleaming gold anchor, he wondered if it was made of gold and weighed several hundred pounds. Zhuang Rui couldn't possibly lift it.
"You'll see once you try..."
Zhuang Rui smiled.
Peng Fei was somewhat unconvinced upon hearing this. He went up, grabbed the golden chain, and pulled it upwards with force. The golden anchor did not move at all. With another pull, the chain made a "clattering" sound, while the golden anchor only moved slightly.
"Holy crap, it's real?"
Peng Fei let out a strange cry and looked at Zhuang Rui as if he had seen a ghost. Judging from Zhuang Rui's movements just now, he lifted this thing as if it were a toy. How much arm strength does that require?
"Don't look down on me, it's your own fault for being useless. Even King Kong could lift that..."
There was really no way to explain Zhuang Rui's situation, so he simply stopped talking about it. After hearing Zhuang Rui's words, Jin Gang rushed over, grabbed the golden anchor, and smirked at Peng Fei in a show of defiance.
The two freaks were looked down upon by a beast, and Peng Fei immediately blushed with embarrassment. He shamelessly said, "Brother, you didn't find any martial arts manuals on this island and your skills improved greatly, did you?"
Peng Fei often boasted to Zhuang Rui that he was well-read, of course, he read martial arts novels. At this moment, his mind was filled with fantasies. Speaking of which, wasn't Jin Shiyi from Liang Yusheng's novels the one who had a wonderful adventure on Snake Island?
"Get out of the way, brother's skills are honed through training, hurry up and start the boat..."
Zhuang Rui changed the subject and pulled Peng Fei back to the driver's seat.
He now knew there was no electronic signal within a hundred nautical miles of this isolated island, so he was eager to sail out of that area and make a phone call home.
Zhuang Rui's fingers trembled slightly as he dialed the familiar number.
"Hey, Xiao Peng, what's going on? I haven't been able to get through to you since yesterday. Have you found Xiao Rui yet?"
His mother's voice came from the other end of the phone, instantly bringing tears to Zhuang Rui's eyes. He said in a trembling voice, "Mom, it's me, Xiao Rui..."
After Zhuang Rui's voice came through, there was a moment of silence on the other end of the phone. After a long while, Ouyang Wan's voice, choked with sobs, came through: "Xiao...Xiao Rui, are you...are you alright? Come home quickly, Mom misses you, we all miss you..."
"Mom, I'm fine. I'm sorry to have worried everyone..."
Zhuang Rui couldn't help but shed tears. Only after losing something can one realize its value and cherish it more.
Zhuang Rui was like that. The two months on the deserted island made him think he would never see his family again in this life. Zhuang Rui reflected on many things he had done in the past and finally concluded that he had not given enough attention and care to his family.
The phone call lasted for over an hour, half of which was spent being scolded by Qin Xuanbing for not being by his side when their children were born. Upon hearing this, Zhuang Rui breathed a sigh of relief, realizing that his wife was unaware of his situation; otherwise, her tone on the phone would have been completely different.
Almost everyone who remained in the Zhuang family's courtyard spoke a few words to Zhuang Rui. Even the two little ones who couldn't speak yet babbled into the phone, filling Zhuang Rui's heart with warmth. He wished he could sprout wings and fly home immediately.
After hanging up, Ouyang Lei called immediately, informing Zhuang Rui that he had arranged for a warship to escort him, and that once he entered China's sphere of influence, a military aircraft would pick him up and take him back to China.
Zhuang Rui did not refuse Ouyang Lei's offer. After all, King Kong was far more extraordinary than White Lion, and going through normal channels might not have been enough to get him into the country.
Seeing King Kong running around on the ship, Zhuang Rui thought for a moment and then dialed Ouyang Jun's number again.
"What's wrong? Did you miss your fourth brother again after you just hung up the phone?"
Among Zhuang Rui's generation, Ouyang Jun was the closest to him. He had been unhappy for the past two months because he thought Zhuang Rui had died. Now that he knew Zhuang Rui was alright, he was happier than anyone else.
"Fourth Brother, let's discuss something, what do you think?"
Zhuang Rui's voice came out.
"What's up?"
Ouyang Jun became more vigilant; every time Zhuang Rui said this, it seemed like he was going to suffer a loss.
"You're planning to close that clubhouse in the suburbs of Beijing, aren't you? Transfer it to me, and I'll build a private resort..."
Before the King Kong, Zhuang Rui's courtyard house was just big enough to live in, but with this big guy, the courtyard house is no longer suitable. If people see it, they might think he is raising a monster in his house.
Zhuang Rui once thought of buying a small island in the coastal area of China to house King Kong, but that would be too inconvenient and not something that could be done in a short time.
After much thought, only Ouyang Jun's place seemed suitable. He could raise the wall around it, and no matter how much Jin Gang caused trouble inside, he wouldn't be able to disturb outsiders.
"A clubhouse in the suburbs of Beijing?"
Ouyang Jun was stunned for a moment upon hearing this. He had now transitioned to real estate and did indeed want to sell that place, but his asking price of one billion yuan scared away many potential buyers.
"Brother, it's not that I can't give it to you, but you know I've invested all my funds in real estate, and you recently withdrew your shares. I'm broke right now, it's for your nephew's milk powder..."
Relatives may be relatives, but when it comes to business, the Fourth Young Master Ouyang is unwilling to suffer losses. After all, Zhuang Rui is rich. If Ouyang Jun doesn't take advantage of him, it would be against all reason.
"Alright, how about this, Fourth Brother? I'll give you five percent of the shares in that project in Africa a while ago, is that alright?"
Zhuang Rui was both amused and exasperated when he heard Ouyang Jun complaining about being poor on the phone.
At their current level, money is just a numbers game. There might be a big difference between 100 and 1 million, but 1 billion and 10 billion are basically the same thing.
