On the evening of February 25, after eating some remaining porridge and drinking some hot water, Chen Zhou felt that his condition had improved somewhat.
After cleaning up the dishes, he added some more seal oil to the oil lamp and lay on his bed, bored, flipping through "Robinson Crusoe," which he had read many times.
This time, he read very carefully.
He read from how Robinson became a sailor and encountered his first shipwreck, all the way to how Robinson got caught in a storm, ended up stranded on a deserted island, and eventually got rescued.
At the end, Chen Zhou tried reading aloud.
His voice echoed in the dim bedroom, a bit hoarse and tired. Since he hadn't spoken for so long, some words were pronounced incorrectly, and the sentences sounded awkward when read aloud.
However, as he continued to speak in full sentences, over time, his reading became more and more fluent. His tongue and vocal cords gradually regained a familiar feeling, as if he had returned to the past.
