Zhang Liu added the last two comments because of what happened last night.
"Are you complimenting me?"
After thinking seriously about Zhang Liu's evaluation of him, he asked Lingying.
"Of course I'm praising you!" Zhang Liu nodded and continued, "By the way, have you finished the pottery I asked you to make?"
"Thank you for the compliment. The pottery is already done!"
He was very happy to accept Zhang Liu's compliment.
Xiang Lingying stood up and pulled the other person to the shelter.
What appeared in front of Zhang Liu was a clay product that looked like an oversized casserole.
Next to it is a small semicircular clay plate with four finger-sized holes in the middle.
Ignore the disks whose use you don't know.
This pottery, which is similar to an oversized casserole, appears to be wider and taller than the original clay basin, but it is much smaller than the largest clay jar currently available.
Overall, the clay pot in front of him still met his requirements.
It’s just that this disc made Zhang Liu feel a little curious, but no matter how he looked at it, he couldn’t figure out the function of this disc.
If it is intended to be used as a shallow pot, what are these holes for?
"This is a lid. I remember my father mentioned it when we were practicing cooking. Putting a lid on the pot when boiling water or cooking can effectively speed up the process and preserve the heat of the pot!"
Seeing Zhang Liu looking at the clay pot lid, he whispered to Lingying beside him to explain.
She pointed to the hole and added: "You can add a rope to the back to carry it."
"I'm going to change my opinion of you now." After listening to Xiang Lingying's explanation, Zhang Liu, who had never thought of adding a lid to the pot, turned his head and looked at the girl next to him with a confused expression and said with a smile: "You are still a very smart girl."
It's just that he said this.
Xiang Lingying's expression did not seem very happy, but rather a little disappointed.
"Uh? What's the matter?" Zhang Liu scratched his head awkwardly. He originally thought that the other party would be happier after such a compliment, but he was a little at a loss for a moment.
I was clearly saying words of praise...why did Xiang Lingying have such a lost expression?
"I'm fine..."
He spoke in a low voice, then turned his head and walked to the shelter and sat down, and Xiang Lingying continued to stare at the fire in a daze.
Although she said that everything was fine, everything she showed at this moment was silently saying "I have something to ask, come and ask me".
There was silence for a few seconds. It was about to get dark and time was running out, so Zhang Liu didn't have time to ask Xiang Lingying in detail.
Instead, he held clay basin No. 2 and walked to the earthen kiln next to him to prepare to fire it first.
Then he suddenly discovered that there were six fired pottery bowls in the earthen kiln!
"Hey? How come this bowl is cooked?"
Zhang Liu's confused voice gave Xiang Lingying, who was embarrassed as to why the other party suddenly ignored him, an opportunity to stand up and walk over to communicate.
After asking about the situation, she also started to talk about how she, Qin Ruoyan, Qin Ruoshuang, and Gu Qingrou had spent the night here and helped to burn the earthen kiln.
After finishing the explanation, Xiang Lingying naturally skipped the angry part and took the initiative to sit next to Zhang Liu.
And she would take the initiative to speak from time to time, with a tone and eyes that were deliberately flattering.
As the flames in the earthen kiln rose again.
Zhang Liu and Xiang Lingying also started their dinner.
The combination of egg yolk fruit and papaya can provide them with a barely sufficient water intake.
This time when they went up the mountain, Zhang Liu picked twenty papayas and thirty-seven egg yolk fruits. After the two of them ate them hard, there were still twelve papayas and twenty egg yolk fruits left.
"I feel so full..." Leaning against a pillar in the shelter, Zhang Liu turned his head to look at Xiang Lingying who was wiping her feet beside him. He suddenly asked, "You seemed angry just now?"
Hearing this question, Xiang Lingying paused for a moment, then whispered, "So you can tell that I'm angry?"
She turned her head and looked at the boy next to her with grievance, and asked, "Why don't you persuade me?"
Zhang Liu blinked and didn't know what he should say for a moment.
How should I put it? I made such an obvious move towards Lingying just now that everyone must have noticed it.
But in his opinion, he didn't say or do anything wrong, so there was no need and no reason to persuade her.
"Don't tell me I'm smart all the time!" Seeing Zhang Liu's expression, Xiang Lingying also explained his behavior just now: "Sister Wanying once told me that if a boy feels that a girl is too smart, he will take the initiative to stay away from her. I don't want you to stay away from me."
In fact, she was partly pretending just now. She wanted to be hugged and coaxed by the boy she liked, just like she was coaxed after crying yesterday.
Who knew Zhang Liu wouldn't buy it at all...
"Um... okay, then I'll change it to capable?" Scratching his head, after hearing Xiang Lingying's words, Zhang Liu directly modified his previous evaluation.
"It's too ugly, change it!"
After having experienced the previous experience of being angry and ignored, Xiang Lingying never dared to lose her temper in front of Zhang Liu again. She continued to return to the state of speaking her mind directly.
Chapter 401: A man who starts to crave the smell of a woman...
Before falling asleep.
Xiang Lingying finally agreed with Zhang Liu's comments: "beautiful girl, very pure, very cute".
Then he lay down happily in the triangular shelter and fell asleep.
Turning his head to look at the girl next to him who fell asleep in almost half a minute, Zhang Liu was silent for a few seconds.
I also lay down decisively and began to rest.
To be honest, he felt a little disappointed at the moment.
Because Zhang Liu originally thought that Xiang Lingying would do something to him, and then he could take advantage of it.
It turned out to be nothing...
He exhaled the foul air that had been accumulated in his lungs, closed his eyes and began to try to get himself into a resting state as soon as possible.
However, Zhang Liu, who was closing his eyes, felt as if he had missed something important today...
At the same time, it was time for the girls on the mountainside to go to bed.
And they enjoyed the experience of "sleeping with the door closed" on a deserted island for the first time.
First, tie bamboo branches that are as thick as fingers and more than two meters long horizontally to a three-meter-long bamboo as thick as an arm, and then hang them with ropes at a door that is about two meters wide.
In this way, a simple outward-folding bamboo door is completed. It is very simple but also very durable.
You just need to push it open or flip it up with your hands when entering and it will be unobstructed.
If necessary, you can also tie the curtain directly from the inside, so that the bamboo door can be fixed directly on the bamboo house, so that people outside cannot come in easily, and privacy can be protected very well.
During the day, Xiang Wanying also went to the bamboo house to do the test.
Basically, tie up the bamboo door, and then plug the triangular vents left at both ends of the roof.
This bamboo hut has become a nearly enclosed space, although its ability to keep out rain in strong winds and heavy rain has not been tested.
But the double-layer roof prepared by Su Yan and Anya is already a reliable way to block out light and make the interior of the bamboo house appear almost completely dark.
So she had no doubt about the bamboo house's ability to keep out rain.
You should know that the first bamboo house Zhang Liu built at the foot of the mountain on the east side only used a single-story structure.
But it can still stand in the storm like before and shelter everyone without even leaking a bit.
Before going to bed, a group of girls worked together to make a simple bamboo bed in the bamboo house.
After moving the fire next to the bed in the room and looking at the flickering flames in front of them, everyone felt an indescribable warmth in their hearts.
"It feels a bit like we're on vacation, experiencing primitive life..." As Anya spoke, she was holding a slender bamboo branch with a piece of snow-white palm tree core stuck on it.
After Zhang Liu made that pot of "Laba porridge", she began to pay attention to this kind of food that can be obtained in large quantities but cannot provide too strong a feeling of fullness.
However, Anya found the slightly bitter taste of the palm tree core difficult to accept, so she was forced to give up the idea of treating it as nonsense.
But now, Anya has thought of a new combination!
It's toasted palm tree heart with a little bit of honeycomb.
In her opinion, this way, she can taste the texture of palm core and the sweetness of honey. It is a win-win situation, a win twice!
"It's a bit like crunchy rice candy." Extending her soft pink tongue to lick the tree core crumbs off her lips, Anya handed it to Su Yan who was staring at her and said, "Yan Yan, would you like to try it?"
“It’s really delicious.”
After taking the roasted palm heart handed over by Anya, Su Yan tasted it carefully, her eyes shining slightly, and she gave a very pertinent answer.
Beside the two of them, Lan Yueting and Xiang Wanying looked at each other and then began to imitate them.
Everyone prepared a lot of palm cores tonight and placed them in the bamboo house, intending to have them as breakfast tomorrow morning.
However, now that Anya has developed this fresh and delicious way of eating it, they have decided to use it as a bedtime snack.
In the small bamboo house, after Xiang Wanying, Lan Yueting, Su Yan and Anya finished their dinner, they once again had a great meal leaning against the core of a palm tree.
Although no one realized it.
But this is the midnight snack they haven't had for a long time.
........................
Time quickly came to midnight. Compared to the four girls who had eaten and drunk enough on the mountainside, they slept soundly at night.
Zhang Liu, who was just full of fruit, touched his stomach which had started to growl, and then sat up silently.
Next to him was Xiang Lingying, who was still breathing evenly.
At this moment, the light in the campfire in front of him was gradually dimming. Zhang Liu got up from the bed and quietly put several pieces of firewood into it.
After watching the fire expand again, he looked at the fire in front of him and sighed slightly.
The moon tonight has returned to its fullest period, so it looks like the white jade plate in Li Bai's poems, and the light is also sufficient.
It hangs brightly in the sky and can even replace part of the firelight, so that the entire forest is not so dark that you can't see your hand in front of you.
Looking at the fire silently, Zhang Liu was thinking about his future plans in his mind.
We will catch sheep tomorrow. If we fail to catch any, we will go up the mountain directly. Our goal is to build a bamboo house and make taro flour.
Then wait for the rainy season and set out across the jungle to see what resources there are that can be used, and at the same time look for other people like Gu Qingrou.
For example, Song Shuyao who mocked him for being spineless, or Zhao Yiran who followed Song Shuyao around with a servile expression on his face but still looked down on him...
Of course, Zhang Liu hopes that he can meet the gentle teacher Zhou Fang.
It’s embarrassing to say that after his parents passed away, he treated Zhou Fang, a grown woman who was fourteen years older than him, as his mother and relied on her...
As he was thinking about it, he suddenly came back to his senses.
Shaking his head helplessly, Zhang Liu realized that he had thought too much...
But overall, he feels that he currently doesn't have any major problems with his time management.
At least we can accomplish the very clear goal of crossing the jungle.
But what about after crossing the jungle...&This was something Zhang Liu had never thought about.
At the moment he had only a vague idea.
He crossed the jungle and searched the entire deserted island to confirm that there were no other victims like him, and then tried to make a boat and go out to the sea.
Making a boat...
When he thought of this idea, Zhang Liu couldn't help but smile bitterly.
He had never even ridden a pirate ship at an amusement park since he was a child. The only experience he had with ships was that he learned origami in elementary school and could make paper boats.
The various pre-production technologies required of ships that can go out to sea are definitely very high...
Chapter 402: Kindness as a Hunter Is to Respect Food
So when it comes to this, Zhang Liu really has no idea at all.
The only concept is that it was mentioned in Robinson Crusoe, as if someone once crossed the entire ocean in a canoe.
