Practical teaching: Starting from the soul traveling through Dragon Garden

Chapter 318 Poisonous Mushrooms

It was another sleepless night. Ryuuen had been in a coma for too long, so sleep was not that necessary for him.

When the sun rises, it means that everyone starts to get busy. Without the participation of the important fighting force Long Yuan, both the acquisition of food and the construction of houses are in a dilemma.

But Nanyun had no choice but to arrange for everyone to go ahead with it.

Ryuuen's injuries would not heal in a short time, and due to the shortage of medicines, the medicines used to bandage Ryuuen's wounds were all collected by Ayanokouji on the island. Only some oral antibiotics and anti-inflammatory drugs were originally in the medical kit, and they had to be used sparingly, after all, no one knew who would be injured next.

Ryuuen could only recuperate with Sakayanagi, and Ayanokouji had to go out to collect herbs, so the burden of collecting food fell on Horikita and Ichinose. Nanyun and Kiriyama also had their work cut out, as they had to build the house as soon as possible.

Horikita could only catch some simple seafood, and it was impossible for her to deal with large animals. In fact, Horikita could not even catch a rabbit.

Not to mention Ichinose, her ability to survive in the wild is only slightly higher than Sakayanagi's, and she can only look for wild fruits and pick mushrooms.

The two girls were responsible for everyone's meals. As you can imagine, it was a difficult task, but Horikita didn't complain at all and just went fishing in the sea over and over again.

Ryuen actually felt sorry for Horikita, but there was nothing he could do. The human body cannot stay in seawater for too long, and Horikita's body had already shown slight adverse reactions. She must have discovered it a long time ago, but just kept it to herself.

Ichinose was not lazy either. In order to relieve Horikita's pressure, she almost always came back with a bunch of wild fruits, some sour, some bitter, and some sweet. She herself also had to endure the bites of mosquitoes, and there were many red marks on her delicate calves.

Ryuen felt very uncomfortable, but survival in the wild was cruel. Even Nanyun and Kiriyama turned darker under the sun.

"You must be regretting it now. If you hadn't stayed, you would have returned to school by now."

Ryuuen said as he looked at Sakayanagi who was distilling seawater nearby.

The simple and boring job of distilling seawater fell entirely on Sakayanagi. After all, everyone was busy and she wanted to share some of the burden with everyone. The process of distilling seawater was very slow, but the demand was huge, which made Sakayanagi quite hard-working.

Sakayanagi stirred the water in the cup and said casually, "Maybe."

Ryuen changed the subject: "Sakayanagi, don't you think it's taking too long?"

"What do you mean?"

"I mean, the school hasn't sent anyone to find us yet. Isn't that a bit strange?"

Sakayanagi is the chairman's only daughter. Logically, the chairman would mobilize all available manpower and resources to search for his daughter. Moreover, the ship driven by Ryuuen did not travel too far. Chairman Sakayanagi should have brought people to pick them up.

Sakayanagi threw two branches into the fire, and the flames rose. The sea water in the cup kept rolling and emitting scalding hot steam.

"Maybe tomorrow."

Sakayanagi didn't have much confidence when she spoke, and she herself was not sure.

"When did you become an optimist?"

Sakayanagi threw a small branch towards Ryuen: "So when do you think you can come?"

"Maybe he won't be able to come."

"Are you deliberately answering me with pessimism?"

Sakayanagi was a little angry. She had thought about this possibility, but she just didn't want to believe that the father who loved her so much would abandon her.

Ryuen picked up the small branch that Sakayanagi had just thrown. His fingers were bandaged, and only his index and middle fingers could move freely. Ryuen used these two fingers to hold the small branch and gave it back to Sakayanagi. "I just want to say that maybe we shouldn't wait to be rescued, we should save ourselves!"

Ryuuen is serious. If Chairman Sakayanagi really doesn't come, or if there is some reason that prevents him from coming, Ryuuen doesn't want to just stay on the island and wait for death. He has to find a way out for himself.

Sakayanagi shook her head. If they could really find a way out, they wouldn't stay on this island at all.

"Then I look forward to you making the impossible possible."

Sakayanagi did not discourage Ryuuen. After all, Ryuuen had nothing to do. Instead of letting his brain stagnate, it would be better to let him exercise more. Maybe he could really come up with some good ideas. However, Sakayanagi did not hold much hope in his heart.

The amount of seafood that Horikita brought back was getting less and less, but no one blamed her. Nanyun once wanted to stop the construction of the house to collect food, but looking at the house that was about to be completed, he had to grit his teeth and persevere.

Although Nanyun also suggested to stop the construction of the house and help Horikita catch fish to relieve some of Horikita's pressure, the stubborn Horikita said that she could do it alone and asked Nanyun to focus on the house. Nanyun had no choice but to think about building the house as soon as possible because he could not persuade Horikita.

In contrast to Horikita, Horikita is catching fewer and fewer fish, but Ichinose is picking more and more fruits, and recently Ichinose has also collected a lot of mushrooms.

Although the taste of mushrooms is not very good, it is still a fresh species that can stimulate everyone's taste buds. People are already tired of other things.

There were many varieties of mushrooms on the island. Ichinose simply followed the most primitive method and picked the ugly ones with bad colors. Even so, half of the mushrooms he brought back were poisonous.

The mushrooms that Ichinose brings back will be selected twice by Ayanokouji before they can be put into the pot. After all, it would be no fun if they got poisoned after eating them.

Long Yuan chewed the mushroom. The original taste of the mushroom was indeed much better than seafood because it had no fishy smell.

After a busy day, no one had the energy to talk while eating, but Ryuuen noticed something wrong.

Ayanokouji didn't eat mushrooms.

"You don't like mushrooms?"

Ayanokouji shook his head: "I just don't like eating white poison amanita."

Long Yuan's eyes widened. Amanita phalloides is a common hallucinogenic mushroom that contains toxins that can affect brain function, leading to hallucinations and other mental symptoms. Long-term or large-scale intake of Amanita phalloides may lead to chronic poisoning, causing cognitive impairment, memory loss and other problems.

There are Amanita phalloides mushrooms in the pot?!

Ryuuen was about to warn everyone when he saw Ichinose and Sakayanagi shaking their heads.

Ichinose bit Sakayanagi's arm, mumbling, "Smells so good, tastes so good."

But Sakayanagi was crying: "Don't leave me, wuwu."

Horikita, who seemed normal, stood there in a daze without saying a word, more wooden than a wooden fish.

Kiriyama was already spinning in circles with Nanyun, like a spinning top.

Ryuuen's mind was no longer clear, he felt dizzy and his eyes seemed to be covered with a layer of fog.

It seemed like something was about to emerge from the fog.
