"Grandpa, what are you going to do?"
Pus asked, puzzled.
"Make a fire and roast meat."
Abis looked up at him and said, "Come and help."
"Oh, are we going to stay here with sister and wait for the people outside to come?"
As Pus spoke, he began to help gather firewood.
"Hmm."
Abis replied faintly.
Mai Xiaomai's eyes reddened, "Thank you."
She also helped pick up firewood.
Abis set up the fire and started roasting wild sheep.
The three of them lacked the harmonious laughter of before and ate the roast mutton in silence, each preoccupied with their thoughts.
After eating, Mai Xiaomai suggested they cremate the two others.
If they had the chance to get out, they would take their ashes back.
Abis had no objections and assisted her in cremating the two people, and stored the ashes in boxes they found from the plane.
The night gradually deepened.
Mai Xiaomai, overcome with sleepiness, leaned against a tree trunk and fell asleep.
