"Yiran..." Gu Xixi's opposition forced Song Shuyao to look to her good friend Zhao Yiran for help.
She now desperately needs someone to support her views.
Zhao Yiran silently looked away.
If it was sunny, she would agree with Song Shuyao's words without hesitation.
But during rainy days, Zhao Yiran was a little worried that he might encounter a sudden storm after going out to sea, which might lead to the destruction of the ship and the death of everyone.
Her statement also left Song Shuyao completely speechless.
"Okay, let's talk about it later." She stuffed half of the egg yolk fruit into her mouth and ate it. Then she looked at the three people around her who were picking up fruits in their own directions and said, "But for things like this, we should be quick, right?"
no answer.
Zhou Fang, Gu Xixi, and Zhao Yiran all paused for a second, then continued to bend down to pick up the items.
"Oh..." With a sigh, Song Shuyao also joined the team.
........................
When Zhou Fang and others started to carry fruits back and forth.
Zhang Liu had walked about seven or eight kilometers in a dark jungle.
At the moment, he was standing under a towering tree, panting and taking a rest.
Although mentally, he is still in an extremely excited state because of the coffee he drank.
But in terms of physical strength, Zhang Liu already felt that a considerable part of his energy had been consumed.
After standing and resting for a while, his panting has gradually stopped.
But the feeling of fatigue inside the body will not be relieved by this.
However, Zhang Liu also confirmed two things.
The first thing is that judging from the completely unfamiliar scenery in front of me and the fact that the ferns on the ground have completely turned into mosses, I am currently walking in a straight line.
The second thing is, judging by the workload of the whole morning, I am really an idiot!
Throughout the morning, his way of finding his way through the jungle changed twice.
In the early stage, walking back and forth and then confirming the straight line is the most inefficient state. Basically, Zhang Liu has to spend double time and energy on each journey.
And you also have to worry about not accidentally making a right-angle turn.
Then in the middle stage, it suddenly occurred to him that he only needed to walk to the front, and then gently insert the branch that tied the rope into the ground, so that it was in a state where it could be pulled out with force. Soon he could walk a long distance less!
Thus, Zhang Liu's way of crossing the jungle underwent the first change.
Then came the second change.
After walking a long way with the tail several dozen meters long behind him, he finally realized something.
That is, if your goal is to cross the jungle, you don’t have to walk in a straight line in the jungle!
If only there was a way to get through the jungle in a roughly straight line without getting lost!
So why should I use this laborious rope method to identify the route?
Wouldn't it be better to just aim at the farthest tree you can see and then move forward in a straight line?
After figuring out the cause and effect, Zhang Liu realized that all he needed to do was walk on a straight path, not in a straight line!
Using the point where his eyes were fixed as a method of measuring straight lines, his speed in the jungle suddenly increased.
But after all, I only got it later.
Therefore, the physical strength that Zhang Liu repeatedly consumed before was definitely real.
He was really exhausted right now.
I even felt that the book basket behind me, which was originally only slightly heavy, had become extremely heavy.
So...why don't I just rest here for the afternoon?
Looking up at the extremely thick tree canopy above his head, this thought suddenly flashed through Zhang Liu's mind.
But he also clearly felt that the time now was only late afternoon or evening at most.
If I stop to rest, I can at least save half a day's walking time.
Just when Zhang Liu was extremely hesitant.
He heard a crackling sound from the tree canopy above his head, where the only sound was the rustling of leaves swaying in the wind.
It's raining……
After brewing for most of the day with gloomy weather, the rain unique to the rainy season finally arrived on time.
With this reason in mind, Zhang Liu no longer hesitated about whether to leave or not, but began to think about where would be most comfortable to spend the night.
At this moment, there was a thick layer of green moss under his feet and on the trees around him.
The reason why Zhang Liu judged it to be a moss rather than a fern was mainly because of its densely packed characteristics but without roots, stems or leaves.
If the jungle is to be divided into layers according to the visibility of the sky, he feels that it can be divided into layers according to the visibility of the sky.
“Ordinary trees can see outside”
“A banyan tree can only see a small piece of sky”
“You can only see the canopy of the towering trees.”
This situation is divided into three levels.
But if this grading becomes the ground.
Then Zhang Liu thought that he should follow
Muddy ground,
Grassy ground,
Fern Ground,
Moss Ground
Make a distinction.
As for what was the ground or the sky ahead, he himself didn't know at the moment.
Maybe if we go further we will reach the outer layer and see the coastline.
Chapter 27: It’s hard to deal with Anya after she figured it out…
But now, the thick moss has brought great convenience to Zhang Liu in building a shelter.
These mosses, with the main body as thick as the length of the palm, are very easy to pick up in pieces.
Although the lower layer of humus mud has long been soaked, there are various worms and shell-less snails.
But for him, this was not a big problem, he could just use a branch to pick it apart.
After simply clearing out a relatively clean piece of ground, Zhang Liu began to look around for anything that could be called dry.
Although his schoolbag contained a lot of old man's beard shavings and dry, small branches suitable for making fire, these things were non-renewable resources in the humid rain forest and could not be used casually.
Therefore, various tree trunks that fell naturally and overlapped became Zhang Liu's first choice targets.
They are in a suspended state, so they will naturally have a drying effect.
Even if the upper layer is soaked, the inner part underneath will still feel somewhat dry.
Compared to the wood on the ground that is completely soaked in "moss water", these woods are definitely a good choice for making a fire.
He worked hard with a fire hammer in hand. In just a short while, he had collected a large pile of firewood and successfully started a small fire.
Suddenly, light and warmth appeared in the dark and damp jungle.
Even the sound of raindrops falling overhead was much quieter.
But this fire was far from enough for Zhang Liu.
To say goodbye to the damp feeling in the rainforest, he planned to continue cutting down trees until he had enough to sustain a big fire.
Then use several overlapping pieces of wood at the shelter point and the curtain fabric to build a simple hammock and rainproof layer.
This allows him to completely get off the ground.
But just as he picked up the fire hammer and was ready to deal a second blow to the fallen wood.
Zhang Liu felt sore, weak and tired all over. It was obvious that the little strength he had recovered with great difficulty had been used up again.
Without hesitation, he took out a meat floss biscuit from his schoolbag, unwrapped it and put it in his mouth to chew. Then he quickly drank a sip of mint water and put the meat floss biscuit that was hitting his tongue and teeth into his stomach.
A salty, sweet and clear feeling immediately traveled along the esophagus to the stomach, and gradually spread throughout the body...
When Zhang Liu began to build a house for himself in full swing.
Qin Ruoyan and others also returned with a full load.
"Ah wu..."
Walking in the middle of the team, Anya grabbed a peeled papaya and took a big bite.
The sweet, sticky and soft flesh coated her entire lips with a yellow circle.
Then Anya said with a look of enjoyment: "This papaya is so sweet!"
"After all, it hasn't been soaked in rainwater before." Beside her, Qin Ruoyan turned her head to look at the rough eating posture of the little girl in the red sportswear in front of her, and then she also said with a smile: "You are really brave enough to climb up like this!"
Looking at Anya's smug expression of "hehehe" at this moment.
Qin Ruoyan was also secretly surprised at the other party's "boldness".
That papaya tree is at least eight meters tall.
Under the tree was a pile of fruits that had fallen due to the rain. Only at the top of the tree were there some golden fruits. The branches from the waist upwards were very thin and soft.
Not to mention the fact that tree trunk climbing is extremely complicated in itself due to the slippery weather in rainy days.
So when throwing stones failed to produce any results, Qin Ruoyan was about to give up.
After all, the biggest use of papaya is to marinate mutton, so if that doesn’t work, then just don’t marinate it.
However, Anya took a risk and climbed up the tree, then picked down all seven fully ripe papayas.
"But you still have to be careful next time." Qin Ruoyan looked at the smug expression on the other person's face speechlessly. After being silent for a while, she still spoke up and warned: "What if something unexpected happens next time."
Although she was giving a warning, she didn't expect these words to be of any use at this moment.
After all, based on Anya's personality, Qin Ruoyan could even guess that she would put her hands on her hips and proudly say that climbing a tree was a piece of cake.
"Yeah! I know!" Hearing the serious tone of her classmates, Anya was no longer as proud as before when joking.
Putting away her smile and putting on a serious look, she nodded and said, "Don't worry, Qin Ruoyan, I took this risk because papaya is an important ingredient for pickling mutton!"
Turning her head and looking at the seriousness on Anya's face, Qin Ruoyan was a little confused for a moment.
As far as she could remember, the girl next to her had never admitted her mistakes so decisively.
Isn't Anya the type who refuses to admit her mistakes and even acts unreasonably to save face?
Beside Qin Ruoyan, Lan Yueting and Xiang Lingying also subconsciously showed surprised expressions after noticing this scene.
As students of the same school, they naturally understood Anya's usual personality.
At this moment, the two of them also felt a little bit unbelievable that this proud girl would admit her mistake so directly.
"Why are you looking at me like that?" Feeling a little embarrassed by the gazes of Qin Ruoyan, Lan Yueting, and Xiang Lingying, Anya immediately whispered, "This is what Zhang Liu told me..."
"Hmm?" As soon as she said this, the three girls' eyes became even more confused and curious.
"Really?" As if she felt that she was not trusted, Anya whispered, "Zhang Liu just said it casually, but I also know that the biggest problem with my personality is that I am too... too arrogant. It's okay if he has a good temper, but I can't be like that when I get along with you guys."
After silently looking at the stunned Qin Ruoyan, Lan Yueting, and Xiang Lingying, she whispered, "We will be spending a long time together on this deserted island, so we still have to make some changes."
After saying these words, Anya's cheeks turned red.
Urged by the shyness and embarrassment in her heart, she immediately turned her head and quickened her pace.
This way, you will no longer be in a straight line with the three people behind you.
As long as you can't see it, it won't be too embarrassing!
