Squinting his eyes slightly, Xiang Lingying began to enjoy the "coolness".

Xiang Wanying stood beside him silently.

She understood how much determination the other party had made to make such an approval.

It was almost noon and a moderate rain came quietly.

At this moment, Zhang Liu, who was walking forward in the jungle with a book basket on his back, also heard the rustling sound above his head.

Stopping, he took the alloy pot with a pot ring out of the book basket and placed it on the ceiling.

Chapter 35: At times like this, you need to sweat to feel comfortable (Monthly ticket plus chapter 48)

There was only one third of water left in the sheepskin bag, so Zhang Liu planned to add some rainwater along the way.

Although there is a canopy of leaves blocking the rain, basically not much rain falls.

But something is better than nothing, and something is better than nothing.

At this moment, the moss under his feet was no longer in a continuous state like a velvet carpet, but was mixed with ferns and some cautious weeds.

However, the forest above was still dense and opaque, and the overall visibility was very poor.

Fixing his sights on the farthest tree he could see, Zhang Liu silently quickened his pace.

He estimated that he had already passed the center of the jungle, and perhaps the journey ahead would be much easier.

The time soon came to night.

The eight girls on the mountainside also came up with a plan after discussion.

In the end, they decided to take advantage of the time when there was still enough meat and taro to build a passage to the bamboo house and improve the various facilities in the house.

As for going down the mountain from the west to pick up shellfish, the eight people planned to wait until the shelter was completed before doing so.

If it really doesn't work, just divide the people into several groups.

Some people can go up the mountain to collect taro, some can catch sheep, and some can go to the rabbit hole to add water and get some seafood.

At present, in the largest shelter No. 3, charcoal production has begun to stabilize.

So tonight, eight girls lit the first pot of charcoal in bamboo house No. 1 to dry the outside of the bamboo house.

"Although it feels a little hot, it's really dry and cool!" With her feet soaked in warm water, Gu Qingrou couldn't help but sigh while wiping the sweat from her forehead.

"It's hot, so we can't help it. Sweating is the most comfortable thing to do at this time. And after drying ourselves off, we will definitely be able to sleep much more comfortably."

Beside her, the two sisters Qin Ruoyan and Qin Ruoshuang were sitting on her left and right.

The person speaking at this moment is my sister Qin Ruoyan.

While talking about sleeping, she also looked up at the triangular space next to the roof again, and carefully checked whether it was possible to be suddenly sealed.

After all, right now I rely on this thing to maintain ventilation and ensure that I and others will not be poisoned by carbon monoxide.

"Next time we catch a fresh goat, we can use the charcoal to make hotpot." Xiang Wanying was sitting next to her eldest daughter soaking her feet, and she smiled and spoke.

"Then I'm going to add the shellfish meat to the stew!" After hearing Xiang Wanying's words, Anya immediately raised her hand and said, "Especially oysters, add more..."

Halfway through her speech, she suddenly remembered that oysters have another use, and her face instantly turned red.

Along with Anya's cute appearance, a burst of laughter suddenly came from the bamboo house.

..........................................

At the same time, Zhou Fang and the other three were in very high spirits at the beach.

For the first time, they had hot, protein-rich food.

Before the fire, for safety reasons, Zhou Fang and others only dared to eat raw sea fish to supplement protein.

Now that they have the opportunity to eat hot food, each of them has shown unprecedented fighting spirit.

There are now many oyster shells and scallop shells piled up next to the banana leaf shelter.

Feeling the feeling of being full for the first time, Zhou Fang, Gu Xixi and Zhao Yiran lay on the ground to rest in confusion.

"The raft is ready. Tomorrow we can start putting fruits and other things on it. Then two people will pull it on the shore, and one person will use the paddle to maintain the direction and angle below!"

Since she was in charge of cooking, Song Shuyao was the first to eat, but she was also the first to return to work after dinner.

At this moment, Song Shuyao was talking while weaving the vine in her hand.

It is used to pull the raft to the shore later, so the thicker it is, the better.

Zhao Yiran did nothing the whole afternoon. She was just busy pulling vines in the jungle, then collecting them and starting to weave ropes.

As for Song Shuyao and Gu Xixi, they were standing in the rain at the beach using rattan to fix the wood for making a raft.

Each piece of wood that can be used as raft material is as thick as a girl's thigh.

After being soaked by rain, it became even heavier.

During this period, Song Shuyao could not be exposed to the rain for a long time because of her menstruation, so she had to find Zhou Fang to exchange jobs.

However, she also brought all the shellfish she could pick up from the beach back to the banana leaf shed and started cooking them.

It was not until the sky became completely dark at night that Zhou Fang and Gu Xixi managed to complete a horizontal raft that was "six meters wide and more than one meter long."

After testing, this raft can bear at least 100 kilograms of weight.

After Zhao Yiran and Gu Xixi sat on it, it only sank two-thirds of its volume, and the remaining one-third floated on the sea.

Hearing Song Shuyao's proposal, Zhou Fang sighed helplessly.

If she had thought of this way of carrying it at that time, she might have started exploring the surrounding situation for the second time.

"Teacher Zhou!" Noticing Zhou Fang's expression, Song Shuyao put down the work in her hands, then held the other person's hand and spoke.

She didn't say anything, but her eyes were full of comfort.

I turned my head helplessly, Zhou Fang didn't say anything.

As a class teacher, she was actually very afraid of seeing Song Shuyao's eyes like that.

Because this means that my authority as a class teacher has completely disappeared!

..............................

Right now on this deserted island, Zhou Fang and others are not the only ones making rafts.

Zhang Liu built a simple shelter at the foot of the mountain using curtain cloth.

The raft is also being made at the moment.

Blocking his way was a river that was at least two to three hundred meters wide.

Because of the rain, the entire river surface was slightly rippled, as if many fish were swimming in it.

The river was not flowing fast, judging by the broken branches that occasionally drifted in the direction of the river.

Because those branches are floating down slowly.

The first time he saw the river, Zhang Liu remembered the siltation area where he and Gu Qingrou had picked mushrooms together.

Through his imagination, he was able to roughly imagine the situation of the island.

Perhaps if I go down the river, I can reach the reef.

However, for Zhang Liu, the river in front of him was indeed a very difficult problem to deal with.

Before setting out, he had never thought about encountering a river, so he did not prepare any props related to crossing the river.

Originally, Zhang Liu wanted to make a raft, but after looking around, he suddenly understood where the rotten bamboo poles piled up in a crisscross pattern at the siltation point came from.

Because after walking about a few hundred meters upstream along the river, Zhang Liu saw an open space caused by the mountainous terrain, plus a tall mountain on the left, and a large bamboo forest on the edge of the mountain in front.

Looking silently at the highest peak that had already surpassed his current position, he was filled with excitement.

You have to know that on the rough map you get from looking down from the hill, the highest peak basically represents two-thirds of the entire island!

Chapter 36 I hope my bamboo raft is not bound to sink...

This was Zhang Liu’s initial thought.

If you want to build a bamboo raft, it should be a relatively simple task.

After all, in movies or survival shows, a raft is made very quickly and is completed in just a few minutes.

Of course, the must-see segments that are popular with the audience should not be missed.

Although he also knew that those must be the effects of program editing.

But Zhang Liu himself had experience in building bamboo houses.

Therefore, he has great confidence in bamboo, a nearly omnipotent material.

Therefore, Zhang Liu felt that building the bamboo raft this time would be very simple and easy, and if nothing unexpected happened, he might even be able to cross the river directly at night.

But after actually doing it, he began to feel a headache and helplessness.

When building a bamboo house, Zhang Liu did have experience tying bamboos together.

But at that time, only the horizontal length needed to be bundled.

As for the vertical beams, he always adhered to the concept that the longer the bamboo is, the higher his house will be.

In other words, Zhang Liu only needs to tie two bamboos together and make sure they do not fall apart when put up.

During this period, he did not need to worry about the subsequent stability issues at all.

Because the straight beam is where the real force is applied.

As long as the vertical beam is fine, the horizontal beam will be fine.

But now, when making a bamboo raft, what Zhang Liu needs to consider is the issue of stability.

If it is too loose, he will enjoy the legendary "must sink" treatment...

Standing by the river in the rain and looking at the river surface which was only slightly rippled by the falling rain, Zhang Liu felt a little worried.

He had no problem swimming, so there was no need to worry too much even if he fell into the water.

The key is what's in the book basket behind you.

Although the backpack is slightly waterproof, it probably won’t be able to prevent much water from entering the backpack if it is immersed in water.

If the meat floss cakes get wet, I’ll be in real danger.

After all, even if he really went downstream, he might not be able to safely reach the river channel where he and Gu Qingrou had stayed before.

Even if we arrive, judging from the fact that the fruits along the way have rotted, it is unknown how much supplies we can get there.

You have to know that it takes at least two days to get from the reef where Gu Qingrou is to the coconut grove where there is guaranteed food.

He shook his head, completely clearing away all unnecessary thoughts.

Then Zhang Liu began to work hard to tie up the bamboos around him.

At this moment, the rain in the sky has stopped quietly.

Today in the afternoon, he had already arrived at the river, and then Zhang Liu began to go upstream to explore the surrounding situation in order to cross the river.

He also successfully encountered the highest peak and bamboo forest, and confirmed his camping location for the night.

At this moment, Zhang Liu had used the fire hammer to chop down sixteen bamboos as thick as his arms, and had also completely removed the branches along the edges of the bamboo poles.

He also dragged back many bamboos that had fallen down due to dryness in the bamboo forest, and then split them straight with a fire hammer.

Zhang Liu planned to use them as firewood to be burned at night.

When bamboo burns, it has a natural fragrance.

He really liked the smell.

Take out the candle, flint and old man's beard from the book basket.

For Zhang Liu, who already has rich life experience, making a fire in a humid environment is just a matter of time.

After making the fire, he sat on the dry bamboo next to the fire, took out his notebook and began to draw the blueprint of the bamboo raft.
