The two of them didn't sleep much.
Being in charge was actually not a very popular thing as imagined.
In addition to the hard work that could be asked to be done by others, they needed to take on more responsibilities.
Albert suddenly asked: "Cheng, are you asleep?"
"Not yet."
Cheng Qianxun replied softly: "Go to bed quickly, otherwise how long will you sleep in one night?"
"I was just thinking about this."
Albert said in an almost pleading tone: "Can you take a shift for me tonight?"
Cheng Qianxun hesitated: "My people don't know what to do."
"I just keep an eye on them to see if they are lazy.
I really want to have a good sleep."
As a leader, you can't say you are tired, and you are not allowed to be tired.
Cheng Qianxun agreed: "You can sleep peacefully."
"Thank you."
Albert seemed to be really relieved after getting the promise, and after a while, he snored slightly.
Cheng Qianxun stood up.
As soon as she sat up, Sneijder turned around and hugged her waist: "It's not time yet."
"Replace Barron and let him go to bed early."
She said softly.
"I'll go."
Gordon stood up first: "You two just go to bed, Rudolph and I will go.
It's only six hours until dawn, so three hours for each of us is enough."
"That's it."
Rudolph muttered, still leaning sideways.
Gordon had already gone out wearing a quilt, and Cheng Qianxun had no choice but to lie down.
"You just can't stop worrying about so many men."
Sneijder took her into his arms.
After a while, Barron came down from upstairs and saw Albert lying there from a distance, his hands in his pockets carefully exploring the situation from left to right.
After walking in and making sure that Albert was sleeping soundly, he safely took out the gun from his pocket and walked to his bunk to lie down.
If it were Cheng Qianxun or other teammates, they would definitely be suspicious if they knew someone in their class was the leader.
Both Albert and Barron slept well that night, and they were indeed tired.
Especially Albert.
Among the eighty or so people still alive on the ship, Barron was the only one who could do it.
No matter how healthy he is, he is still a normal person.
If he only sleeps six or seven hours a day, he will be tired sooner or later.
Cheng Qianxun calculated the time carefully again, and there were only sixteen days left until tomorrow.
Maybe by tomorrow, these octopuses would be hungry and find a way to eat them for dinner.
The supplies on the ship were getting less and less, and everything in the cold storage was moved out and thrown away.
Even if you leave it alone.
Meat and vegetables have also gone bad for a long time.
In order to survive, the original people on the ship snatched and hoarded food and water, which resulted in a lot of waste.
The current food can still last for three days.
They have already started to search every place they go to see if there is anything to eat.
Sometimes they can find some.
It's possible that the rest of the day will be spent trying to get food.

It was daybreak and Rudolf ran down.
He shook his teammates and Albert from left to right: "Wake up quickly, something's wrong."
It's just dawn, and the white belly of the fish is exposed in the east.
This is the light.
You can see a darker patch on the originally endless sea.
"I hope it's not the reef or the father of yesterday's whale."
The smile on Rudolph's lips seemed to be a good thing.
Once you see the land, you just need to get to the land.
You can get rid of these octopuses under the boat.
Albert held the telescope and observed it carefully.
He put it down and frowned slightly: "Maybe it's not a continent, just an ordinary island.
Barron.
Tell everyone to get up and sail the boat."
Many of the people who were awake nearby said with doubts: "But we've run out of coal.
We ran out yesterday."
Albert rolled his eyes, and Barron said first: "Did you hear that?
Prepare to sail the ship.
If there is no coal, dismantle the furniture."
Barron is indeed very smart.
He will do whatever it says.
As for what to do, he can figure it out himself.
Cheng Qianxun asked calmly: "Actually, people can also be burned.
The corpses in the warehouse below can also be transported there.
They are almost turned into dry firewood."
The choking person has nothing to say now, just accept the order obediently.
Everyone was woken up, and thirty people took axes to the area closest to the boiler room and chopped up furniture.
As long as they could be burned, they all moved there and threw them into the boiler.
The octopuses were still lying on the deck of the boat, but their stomachs were bloated from eating yesterday, so they were lying motionless and digesting food.
Let them go.
When the food is really gone, they will be operated on.
The boat sailed again, and as it got closer, it turned out that the black area was indeed an island.
It's about fifty kilometers wide, with lush green areas and mountains.
Albert looked at the navigation chart and frowned slightly: "Why is there no label?"
"There are many unlabeled islands, and this is not the only one."
Ackerman said beside him.
He was quite happy, and his cheeks were a little red: "There should be fresh water on it.
I saw waterfalls.
Octopuses can only live in the sea. , if they make it to shore, they can live up to four days.”
Albert didn't answer, he picked up the telescope and observed the island again.
Not only are there many trees, but you can also see waterfalls pouring down from the top of the mountain, with birds flying above.
Cheng Qianxun was not optimistic.
A small island appeared out of nowhere, which was obviously not a good thing.
She has encountered this kind of thing too many times.
It seems that God is merciful, but in fact, she is changing the venue and continuing to torment them.
Damn Raguel, he must still be angry that they ate her sheep.

The gods are really stingy, it’s just a sheep Albert also had his own plan.
He picked up the loudspeaker and shouted: "We will dock soon.
Don't stay too long.
Get fresh water and food and then leave."
They needed supplies.
From where Albert pointed to the navigation chart just now, the last typhoon blew them back to the depths of the sea.
We are now at least seven or eight days' voyage from the coastline, so we need to have enough fresh water and food.
Cheng Qianxun's teammates looked at each other, that's all.
Since the scene has been set, there is no way to escape, otherwise they will encounter greater difficulties and dangers.
There was enough wood in the pot, and the ship continued to move forward.
Many people ran to the deck and began to discuss the island with a smile.
I'm going to catch some birds later, look for kelp and shellfish on the coast, and if there are wild boars or something like that, I'll catch them for a tooth festival.
Suddenly someone shouted: "Look, what is that?"
I saw more than a dozen ships stranded on the coast.
Judging from the age, most of them are ancient three-masted sailing ships, and there is even a relatively modern ship.
Albert picked up the telescope and looked at it: "The writing on the ship has rusted away.
It should be a merchant ship, built in the 1950s and 1960s."
Even if it is a ship carrying food, the food on it has expired long ago.
After a while, Barron came up, panting slightly: "Boss, let's go, something feels wrong, this island is a bit evil."
Ackerman was full of hope to go up there.
After all, there are living things up there.
As long as there are living things, it proves that people can survive: "You are too sensitive.
It's just some boats.
Maybe they were blown there by the wind."
It is possible that such a small island here can act as an interceptor and stop all ships.
"But why no one is looking for these ships?"
Barron still felt something was wrong: "Even if it is a legend, there are ghost islands like that.
Once you enter, you can never get out.
Originally, I was worried, what will happen to us later?
If you go up and use the lifeboat, the octopus will follow you, but don’t worry about it now.”
Barron looked at everyone and said seriously: "Those octopuses all jumped into the sea, followed for a while and then stopped following.
In the blink of an eye, they disappeared."
"No, you are too suspicious.
I am a materialist."
Ackerman walked to the other side to see if the octopuses were still there: "As expected, they are all gone.
Isn't this better?
They went to the sea because of this place."
If the sun is strong and disappears, it is possible to get to the bottom of the boat.”
"Not at the bottom of the boat," Barron said with certainty: "My eyes have never left them, and they disappeared in the sea."
"Maybe he thought we couldn't afford to offend him, so he sank."
Ackerman turned around and returned to his original position, looking at the green island: "Did you see that there are skuas and frigatebirds there?
With so many species of birds, is there any problem?”
Albert had been listening, and he began to hesitate.
Finally, he looked at Cheng Qianxun and her teammates and raised his eyebrows.
Cheng Qianxun also looked around at her teammates, but their expressions said everything, so she took the same expression as her teammates, which was helplessness.

He said helplessly: "Sometimes things can't be decided just by making a decision."
What kind of answer is this?
Albert's face showed a little joking, maybe thinking that they were all staged.
Since he didn't get any advice, he decided to take it himself.
After thinking for a while, he walked to the steering wheel and said to a sailor who was taking control: "Full left rudder."
"What?"
Ackerman jumped up immediately: "Why don't you go to such a good place?"
"Sorry, Professor, we are not here for sightseeing.
Since it is so safe, why don't you take a few people to take a look on the lifeboat?"
Albert said very gently.
Take the lifeboat over, what if those octopuses come back?
Instead of sitting on the boat as food, Ackerman immediately shut his mouth and stopped gnawing.
"Left full rudder!"
the sailor shouted once, then turned the steering wheel sharply to the left.
But this time it was different from before.
Once it turned, the boat also turned with it soon after.
The sailor tried his best, but still couldn't move an inch: "There's something wrong with your head, don't move."
No way.
Albert walked over and tried to pull it with all his strength, but the two of them still couldn't move it at all.
Albert said to Barron: "Come here and help."
"I think we should forget it," Cheng Qianxun stopped, but she still said with helplessness, "Sometimes things can't be decided by just making a decision."
Rudolf also spoke: "It's better to forget it, otherwise the steering wheel will be damaged and you won't be able to walk when you can."
This is also true.
After thinking about it for a while, Albert gave up.
He looked at Cheng Qianxun and her teammates with strange eyes.
Although he said nothing, Cheng Qianxun knew that sooner or later he would ask.
The boat headed towards the island
