After all, there is no bamboo trough or anything like that on the southern hillside that can be used to identify directions after dark.

If we really don't get down the mountain before dark, the consequences will definitely be serious.

After watching Zhang Liu leave, Xiang Lingying felt the loneliness and insecurity suddenly surging around him, so he started to get up and play with the mud. Trying to get rid of the negative spirit, he suddenly thought of Qin Ruoshuang who was in the cave on the other side of the grassland.

Does the other party also feel this way?

She had felt depressed because of Zhang Liu's presence before, but she didn't mind at all.

After experiencing these feelings, Xiang Lingying began to feel guilty. She was so simple-minded that she even wanted to rush back right away.

But she remembered that Zhang Liu would be back before dark, and then she could spend the night alone with him again.

Recalling the happy feeling of being surrounded by masculinity, Xiang Lingying was reluctant to leave.

She crushed the purple-red soil in the pit with force and began to concentrate on making a new pottery basin.

At the same time, Qin Ruoshuang, who was being missed by Xiang Lingying, just came out of the cave. She washed her uninjured hands on the beach, and then she walked towards the coconut grove.

The rabbit harvest is still good today.

There were eight of them, more than one person could finish.

Qin Ruoshuang had just skinned and meated all the rabbits and hung them next to the fire to dry.

What made her a little worried was that her partner Xiang Lingying still hadn't returned on time.

However, it is already afternoon. If we set out for the green pool, we will most likely have to spend the night outside, and the fire in the cave will be completely extinguished, which is really not sensible.

So Qin Ruoshuang planned to get ready tomorrow morning before setting off.

At the moment, she was alone in the cave with no shortage of firewood, water and food. She felt that she was a little too idle, so she wanted to eat something, but suddenly she remembered that the only sweet supplement, honeycomb, had all been given to her sister as emergency food.

So Qin Ruoshuang came up with the idea of ​​using coconut milk to make sugar.

After using a blade to cut off the outer layer of wood fiber of the coconut.

Its volume will be greatly reduced, thereby increasing the convenience of carrying.

Three of them can be stuffed directly into the curtain cloth backpack behind you.

Plus one for each hand.

Although she didn't know how much "coconut sugar" she could make, she was still very much looking forward to it.

Open the coconut shells and pour them into the alloy pot, then turn off the fire and start preparing to make sugar.

In order to prevent it from burning, Qin Ruoshuang chose to simmer it slowly over low heat, and she began to eat the bland and cold coconut meat with a sharp flint.

But while eating, Qin Ruoshuang would subconsciously stick her head out of the cave to check if there was any movement outside.

Although she appears to be as calm as an old dog and even wants to make some candy, she is actually very worried and full of insecurity.

Qin Ruoshuang was really looking forward to Xiang Lingying suddenly coming back in the next second.

Then the two of them started talking and laughing, and ate meat together.

"Xiang Lingying... please come back soon, we have candy to eat..."

She muttered to herself as she watched the coconut milk in the alloy pot in front of her gradually become thicker.

"A-choo..." While Qin Ruoshuang was muttering, Xiang Lingying, who was poking the clay with his fingers next to the green pool, sneezed twice.

At the same time, the sun had completely reached the west and dyed the sky red.

This means that dusk has arrived.

Qin Ruoyan and Gu Qingrou are now living in the wreckage of the plane, and have built beds and a simple shelter using curtains and a few broken chairs.

At this moment, Qin Ruoyan was preparing various prerequisites for making fire by rubbing two woods together.

For example, clean up the fluffy and flammable old man's beard with your mobile phone, or split some wood into small pieces to hold the fire.

The dark and terrifying overnight situation last night really made her physically and mentally exhausted.

So after arriving here this afternoon, Qin Ruoyan proposed to Gu Qingrou that they should find a way to make a fire by drilling wood, build a stable shelter, and then take a short rest to recover their strength.

Gu Qingrou, who had also suffered a great loss in the darkness, fully agreed with her opinion.

Both of them are currently in a state of severe mental and physical exhaustion and are in urgent need of a good rest.

The preparations for turning the wood to make fire were quickly completed, as Qin Ruoyan pulled the bow back and forth with all her strength.

Amid the creaking sound of wood rubbing against each other, a cloud of green smoke began to rise slowly, and then began to change color from light to thick.

“It’s smoking!”

Although Gu Qingrou had never seen the specific process of drilling wood to make fire.

But she had seen scenes of making fire with bottles and Zhang Liu making fire by knocking on them, and in both cases, smoke came out first and then fire started.

Chapter 399: Suspected traces of activities of "other people" (Monthly ticket reward plus additional chapter 7)

After hearing Gu Qingrou's words, Qin Ruoyan simply responded: "Yeah!"

Then she gritted her teeth and did not stop moving her hands back and forth because of the smoke.

Instead, the speed of moving back and forth increased.

Qin Ruoyan let go only when she felt her arm was about to lose sensation.

Without even half a second to breathe, she quickly used her almost unconscious hands to pour the tinder from the fire-making base onto the fluffy old man's beard that had been prepared long ago.

Then hold it in both hands and blow gently.

Every second of holding the old man's beard and blowing air into it was a terrible torture for Qin Ruoyan's already extremely sore hands.

But she never dared to relax at all.

It was not until this moment that Qin Ruoyan fully understood how difficult it was for Zhang Liu and her sister to succeed in making fire by rubbing two sticks together!

The dry white old man's beard acts as a very good fire starter.

After a burst of smoke, flames came out of it.

No hesitation.

Under Gu Qingrou's surprised eyes, Qin Ruoyan placed the flame among the various small pieces of wood that had been prepared long ago.

The wood used to make the lining of this luxury aircraft is all precious hardwood, which is characterized by its high oil content and resistance to burning.

If it were a whole piece, it would be impossible to burn it with just a little flame.

But if it is cut into pieces, it will be a "fire-starting sacred tree"

On the fifty-fifth day after being stranded on the deserted island, Qin Ruoyan mastered the skill of turning wood to make fire.

And the first battle was a success, the fire was successfully started.

However, she was able to successfully start a fire this time thanks to the various dry woods in the wreckage of the plane.

Plus curtain fabric that can be torn into pieces and twisted into a reliable rope.

While Qin Ruoyan was recovering her strength and slowly putting various firewoods into the fire, Gu Qingrou, who was working hard on the edge of the broken plane wreckage, also reaped some rewards.

The last time she and Anya came here, their main goal was to get some metal pieces that they could take back and use as weapons.

Therefore, the two of them did not pay much attention to the distorted aircraft hull, but instead focused on using various means to remove some metal pieces from the torn edges and take them away.

Today, after some searching, Gu Qingrou successfully found the aircraft shell with a diameter of about 20 centimeters and an irregular indentation in the middle.

I don't know what metal the aircraft shell is made of, but it has strong ductility.

She grabbed the edge and folded and twisted it several times, but she was unable to pull it off.

It was not until Qin Ruoyan had made the fire bigger that Gu Qingrou successfully bent it down and took it to her companion and asked, "Qin Ruoyan, do you think this can be used as a small pot for boiling water?"

"Hmm... With this shape, if we add a handle, it can barely be used as a frying pan, right?" Looking at the semicircular aircraft shell held by Gu Qingrou, Qin Ruoyan's tone also revealed a lot of happiness: "It looks great!"

"Let's start boiling some hot water!" Gu Qingrou skillfully used the discarded chair legs to make a simple stand for the pot, and suggested, "Do you want to add some honey?"

"Sure, but I think it needs some more refinement..."

After taking a careful look at the semicircular aircraft hull, Qin Ruoyan walked to the beach, found a fist-sized stone, and then returned to the bottom of the aircraft wreckage.

In order to achieve better water boiling efficiency, she planned to give this small alloy pot a simple reshape, preferably making it into a truly round pot.

Next to Qin Ruoyan who was banging the round pot, Gu Qingrou was also not idle. She stood up and walked towards the woods behind.

She planned to look for any edible fruits in the nearby woods during the dusk.

Soon Gu Qingrou came to the place where Zhang Liu had scraped off the bark and planted three taro.

Instead of going forward to pick the taro, she just stared blankly at the bark on the trees next to the taro that was obviously torn off. After staring blankly for a few seconds, Gu Qingrou hurriedly ran towards the wreckage of the plane.

Today is the fifty-fifth day that everyone has been in distress on the desert island.

It was the eighth day since Zhang Liu planted these three taro.

A full forty-seven days had passed.

The taro, which was originally only the size of a palm, had already sprouted in the soil and started to grow leaves.

The taro on the deserted island is an early-maturing taro, which usually takes about 180 days to fully mature.

Only one-third of the growth period has passed, so the leaves on the top are not very big.

However, the reason why Gu Qingrou was so panicked at this moment was not because she saw Taro.

She had no idea about the details of Zhang Liu's planting and thought she had encountered traces of other human beings on this deserted island.

"What's the matter?" Qin Ruoyan, who was banging on the alloy pot, looked at her classmate in front of her and started to move forward. She immediately became a little nervous: "Gu Qingrou, what happened?"

"Qin Ruoyan! There are people! There are other people on this deserted island!"

After Gu Qingrou took a deep breath and spoke a few words, Qin Ruoyan's expression changed instantly.

Without thinking too much, she picked up the metal dagger, put down everything in her hands, and followed Gu Qingrou to the woods nearby.

But the more she ran, the more Qin Ruoyan felt something was wrong.

By the time she came in front of the three taro, she had already guessed what was going on, and her expression was very interesting.

"This must be a mark left by someone else. Look, it was definitely cut with a knife!" Walking to the side of the tree, Gu Qingrou pointed at the axe mark left by Zhang Liu and said, "Qin Ruoyan, look over here!"

Without saying a word, Qin Ruoyan silently looked at the taro that was growing hard in front of the three big trees, with emotion in her eyes.

Perhaps this trace of life can indeed bring hope to people.

At this moment, she, who had been sighing and even secretly sad because of seeing the wreckage of the plane, now began to feel like cheering up.

"I know, this is the trace left by Zhang Liu, and these three taro were also planted by him." When Qin Ruoyan explained the details with helplessness on her face, Gu Qingrou's face suddenly showed an extremely strong look of embarrassment.

"So that's how it is..." Gu Qingrou quietly squatted beside the taro leaf that was almost the same size as her face and muttered, "I thought it was planted by someone else."

"These taro don't look that big, so let's not touch them for now." Qin Ruoyan smiled and patted Gu Qingrou, who was obviously a little depressed, and then took the initiative to say: "Let's take a walk around now. I remember there are snake skin fruits and banana trees here..."

"Yes!" Nodding vigorously, Gu Qingrou decisively followed behind Qin Ruoyan to act as an assistant. Both of them searched and collected information at a very fast speed because it was very close to dark.

Chapter 400 I Feel You Are Very Capable (Monthly Ticket Rewards for Extra Chapter 8)

While Qin Ruoyan and Gu Qingrou were collecting snake skin fruits, bananas and other fruits to prepare to stew desserts, at the Green Pool Shelter, Zhang Liu had successfully returned with papayas and egg yolk fruits before it got completely dark.

Xiang Lingying, who was sitting under the shelter, brightened up his eyes and immediately walked forward to greet him.

While helping to carry the backpack, she spoke with a hint of grievance.

"Zhang Liu, no sheep are coming today."

For Xiang Lingying, who was ready to fight, he felt a little depressed after playing with mud for the whole day.

"The goats are eating grass during the day, so it's normal that they didn't come over. Let's talk about it tomorrow, but you should go back to Qin Ruoshuang tomorrow morning." Zhang Liu sat on the bed in the shelter, picked up a papaya and ate it while saying, "She has a sensitive personality and tends to think about things. She must be worried to death if you don't go back for such a long time."

"understood."

He responded to Lingying sullenly.

Hearing Zhang Liu's caring words to Qin Ruoshuang, her tone was full of sourness: "You know Qin Ruoshuang very well."

"Understand? Not really." After hearing Xiang Lingying's words, Zhang Liu thought for a few seconds and then said, "I can only say that I have had a lot of contact with her, so I know her personality..."

"Then tell me, what is my personality?" Sitting next to Zhang Liu, Xiang Lingying reached out to tidy up his clothes and hair, and then asked the boy next to him: "You have been in contact with me quite a lot, right?"

"You?" Hearing Xiang Lingying's question, Zhang Liu turned his head to look at the girl in front of him who was looking at him seriously. After thinking for a few seconds, he spoke out his feelings: "She is very cute and pure, just like a piece of white paper without any dirt on it."
