She had just gone into the water.

The underwater current that could push a person out to sea almost prevented Zhao Yiran from returning to the shore.

Later, he was able to return only by holding on to the rope in Zhou Fang's hand.

"Zhang Liu, is there anything we can help you with?" After comforting Zhao Yi, Zhou Fang walked over to Zhang Liu, who had finished cutting down the trees and was spreading palm leaves on the ground, and asked softly.

After venting some of his emotions by chopping down trees crazily, Zhang Liu felt a little more relaxed.

After hearing what his head teacher said, he responded, "Then Teacher Zhou, can you and Zhao Yiran go to the nearby beach to pick up some firewood and shellfish for firewood and dinner?"

Compared to Zhou Fang who nodded and turned away to carry out the task, Zhao Yiran asked in surprise, "Can you make a fire?"

After laying out the palm leaves, Zhang Liu, who was currently walking to the bookshelf to help prepare the curtain cloth for the ceiling, nodded silently to indicate that he would make a fire.

Then he took a look and immediately discovered that 90% of Zhao Yiran's skin was exposed.

It feels a bit awkward.

Zhang Liu handed the curtain cloth that he had been planning to use to cover the floor to the other person and said, "Would you like to put it on first?"

"Thank you..." Zhao Yiran took the curtain cloth handed to her by Zhang Liu and immediately draped it over herself. Then she began to thank Zhang Liu.

"You're welcome..." he said lightly, and then Zhang Liu's face suddenly showed some frustration.

He tilted his head to look at the little leopard running around and playing on the beach. He had come back to his senses and felt mixed emotions.

Noticing that Zhang Liu was in a bad mood, Zhao Yiran opened his mouth to comfort him.

But her mood wasn't very good at the moment, so she couldn't say anything to comfort him.

So Zhao Yiran had no choice but to turn around and walk to Zhou Fang to help pick up firewood.

As everyone worked silently, a long time passed quietly, and even the shadow of the alloy pipe on the beach moved a long way down.

At the same time, Gu Xixi and Song Shuyao, who were floating on the boundless sea, had long lost the calmness they had when they first started chatting and comforting each other.

Several hours of sun exposure had dried up every drop of sea water on their skin.

Chapter 58: New Year's Eve Dinner (Monthly Ticket Reward Chapter 54)

The salt left behind after the sea water dried up made both of their skin feel wrinkled, and there was also an uncomfortable burning sensation.

After drifting on the sea for a while, Song Shuyao and Gu Xixi also mastered the simple technique of lying on the raft to prevent their faces from being directly exposed to the sun.

"Sister Xixi..." Song Shuyao had already put on the sheepskin coat and pants that Zhang Liu had taken off for her, and used her cheeks to feel the burning sensation brought by the raft under her after being exposed to the sun.

Then she whispered, "I'm so hot... so thirsty... so hungry..."

"It's okay. It's almost dusk. When the sun goes down, we won't be hot anymore." Gu Xixi didn't mention anything about being thirsty or hungry. She squinted her eyes to resist the dazzling light reflected from the surrounding sea, and she began to comfort the girl beside her.

Song Shuyao heard Gu Xixi's other meaning, so she lay on the raft and stopped talking.

But after a long while, Song Shuyao suddenly whispered: "Zhang Liu said he would come to save us."

"I hope he doesn't come." Gu Xixi sighed slightly with a dry mouth, and then said: "I regret confessing now... This behavior is really stupid... It might kill Zhang Liu."

Hearing her words, Song Shuyao pursed her lips, which were beginning to turn white, and said nothing more.

Compared to Gu Xixi's regretful confession, she regretted not apologizing to Zhang Liu. She had the words on her lips but was unable to say them...

Just as Gu Xixi said, time quickly came to dusk.

Zhang Liu's shelter has been built.

A fire was lit, and a small alloy pot on a tripod was cooking a pot of thick meat floss cakes and palm heart soup.

There were three meat floss cakes and four or five palm tree cores in the pot, and the whole pot was bubbling.

Zhou Fang and Zhao Yiran were each holding a piece of meat floss pancake and chewing on it.

The two had no resistance to this kind of processed food.

But because the meat floss biscuits were dry and salty, they would sip coconut milk from time to time.

Zhou Fang and Zhao Yiran looked very enjoyable as they felt the mixture of sweet, salty and fresh taste in their mouths.

As for the little leopard, Zhang Liu has already dealt with it with two pieces of cooked wolf meat.

At this moment, it was lying next to the fire, lying on its belly, trying to seduce its "feeder".

As the time spent in contact with the fire gradually increased, the little leopard was no longer afraid of the fire that caused stinging sensation in its eyes.

After the shelter was built, Zhang Liu sat down and exchanged information with Zhou Fang and Zhao Yiran who were eating meat floss pancakes.

After learning that the other four people were in the north of the deserted island, he took out the crudely drawn map in his hand and pointed out the location of himself and the other eight girls to Zhou Fang and others.

"You mean Qin Ruoyan, Qin Ruoshuang, Xiang Lingying, Gu Qingrou, Anya, Su Yan, Lan Yueting and Xiaoying are all there?" Zhou Fang, the teacher leading the study tour, was extremely happy to hear such good news from Zhang Liu.

She even fantasized about the scene of bringing someone back later.

But when she thought of Song Shuyao and Gu Xixi, Zhou Fang felt a cloud of gloom in her heart.

If she had known this would happen, she would never have let Song Shuyao sit on that small raft!

Even if the opponent has cramps...

Shaking her head to get rid of the overly naive thoughts in her mind, Zhou Fang sighed lightly.

Scratching his head in confusion, Zhang Liu was a little bewildered by what his head teacher called Xiaoying.

Then he recalled something Xiang Wanying had once told him.

It seems that Zhou Fang is her godmother?

So Xiaoying’s words should be referring to Xiang Wanying, right?

So Zhang Liu looked at Zhou Fang who was shaking her head for some reason and asked, "Teacher Zhou, are you referring to Wanying when you say Xiaoying?"

Zhou Fang, who was swallowing a meat floss bun, nodded and was unable to speak.

Beside her, Zhao Yiran blinked slightly. She didn't expect that the Xiang family's head maid, who kept people away with politeness, was actually related to her class teacher...

"Teacher Zhou, all the people you mentioned are here." After confirming who Xiaoying was, Zhang Liu said, "And they should have no worries about food and clothing at the moment."

Just like what he said.

At this moment in Bamboo House No. 1, since there was enough taro powder accumulated, the girls were enjoying a very luxurious and finely processed food.

“Taro flour fruit pie”

The specific operation is to boil the taro powder in hot water and then knead it into a dough. Then, the bland banana flesh is mixed with egg yolk fruit, tamarind and other things to make the filling.

Wrap the filling with taro dough, flatten it and bake it over the fire until it is dry, then fry it in a large alloy pot with base oil.

After doing this.

The taro fruit puree pie, which was suggested by Xiang Wanying and made by herself, received unanimous praise from everyone.

"Sister Wanying, your cooking skills are great." Xiang Lingying said vaguely while stuffing pie into her mouth.

As she spent more time on the deserted island, she began to abandon her previous family education that taught her to "swallow everything in her mouth before speaking"...

"Hehehe!" Xiang Wanying, who had acquired good cooking skills due to the praise from her eldest daughter and who would sneak into the Xiang family's kitchen every day to steal food when she was a child, now had a very happy and proud expression.

"Can we get more taro flour to hit the machine, and then eat this every day!" Anya stuffed a pancake into her mouth with one hand, and then she said with anticipation on her face: "It doesn't have to be fried!"

Compared to taro which always has a "root texture" no matter how you eat it, this taro cake is neither dry nor bland when chewed, and tastes amazing!

"Well... let's not do that for now. Although the taro in the taro field has sprouted, it will take a long time for it to grow out." Hearing Anya's question, Xiang Wanying also gave a very serious answer: "This kind of delicate food is very wasteful to make. I'm making it today because today is New Year's Eve and we should have a meal."

After that, she looked at the seven people in front of her and said with a smile: "Happy New Year."

"New Year's Eve……"

When they heard the time Xiang Wanying said, the other seven girls looked at each other in confusion.

"Ah! Yes! Today is January 21st!" Qin Ruoyan slowly swallowed the pie in her mouth, and then an expression of sudden enlightenment appeared on her face.

The others around her also suddenly reacted at this moment.

But compared to the smile on Xiang Wanying's face, all the girls looked a little gloomy at this moment.

New Year’s Eve is an extremely special day for every native person in District Z.

No matter how hard those migrant workers work outside, they will try their best to find time and catch the train to go home.

Chapter 59: The more I read, the more I like it. I even want to do it myself (Monthly Ticket Reward Chapter 55)

Qin Ruoyan, Qin Ruoshuang, Xiang Lingying, Lan Yueting, Anya, Su Yan, Gu Qingrou, they all came from wealthy or noble families.

So from childhood to adulthood, there has never been a Spring Festival that the seven of us did not spend with our family.

But now, everyone is trapped on a deserted island.

Although everyone could be considered to be celebrating the New Year together, and the overall atmosphere was lively and warm.

But the girls always feel confused and secretly sad.

And they all thought of Zhang Liu who is still "struggling" outside.

We were celebrating the New Year with delicious food, but I don’t know how he is doing…

For a moment, the girls looked at each other in silence.

Even Xiang Wanying, who had been holding back and preparing to give everyone a surprise, was secretly regretting her arrangement at this moment...

"Oh! It's a pity that the new trap I dug in the grove was not triggered, otherwise we might be able to eat mutton." Feeling the gloomy emotions of the others around her, Qin Ruoyan quickly spoke up to smooth things over.

During the day today, she, Qin Ruoyan and Gu Qingrou dug a trap in the goat jungle.

And I went down to check the situation at night.

It's just a pity that it wasn't triggered...

"Maybe it will be triggered tomorrow. It can be regarded as a New Year's red envelope given to us by this deserted island." Understanding the reason why Qin Ruoyan mentioned this, Gu Qingrou decisively took over the topic and began to guide it.

The other girls also realized this, and then everyone started talking about other topics, intentionally or unintentionally avoiding the Chinese New Year.

At the same time, Zhang Liu also wrote the first stroke of the fifteenth character. Looking at Zhou Fang and Zhao Yiran beside him, he smiled and said, "Today is New Year's Eve. Happy New Year to everyone."

Zhou Fang and Zhao Yiran sat on Zhang Liu's left and right.

The three of them had finished their dinner of concentrated pork floss soup.

Hearing Zhang Liu's words, Zhou Fang, who was silently fiddling with her small schoolbag, looked up blankly. She didn't expect the other party to suddenly say this.

Zhao Yiran asked directly: "Is today the Chinese New Year?"

"Well, take a look for yourself." Zhang Liu handed the notebook with fourteen correct characters written on it to the other party, and then explained: "We set out on November 2022, 11, and when I was here it should be November 11, 2022. So far, 11 days have passed, so if you count it, today is January 12, New Year's Eve."

After hearing such detailed information, Zhou Fang and Zhao Yiran, who was calculating time with a notebook, were both confused.

Because they have been living here so long that they have forgotten the time.

"It's been two months already... and today is actually New Year's Eve..." After returning the notebook to Zhang Liu, Zhao Yiran muttered the time quietly.

Then she wrapped the curtain cloth around herself a little tighter.

Although there was a bonfire, she felt somewhat desolate because she was still wandering outside at this special time of New Year's Eve.

"At least we had a good meal." Zhou Fang has been fiddling with her schoolbag since she sat down in the shelter.

Hearing the melancholy in Zhao Yiran's tone, she also gently comforted her.

At the same time, what Zhou Fang said was true.

The meat floss cake stewed with palm heart soup she had at Zhang Liu's place was the only hot, salty, meaty soup she had had since she was in danger.

And the palm core added in it makes it extra filling!

Eat it up in one gulp and feel the moment your stomach is filled.

Zhou Fang really felt like she was healed...

"Yes." Zhang Liu stretched out his hand and rubbed the little leopard who was sleeping beside him, and said, "Let's discuss tomorrow's situation now. If it is sunny and not raining tomorrow, I will go out to sea to rescue Song Shuyao, Gu Xixi and the others."

After hearing his words, Zhao Yiran and Zhou Fang, who were originally looking at the little leopard, turned their eyes to Zhang Liu again.

With a serious expression, Zhang Liu began to discuss his plans with the two of them.

"The alloy tube I inserted in front of the beach is to confirm the direction of the ocean current!"

"If everything goes well and the weather is fine tomorrow, I will tie a bottle to the front of the raft as a direction-finding device, and then set out directly to find someone."
