Therefore, accommodation must be prepared in advance.

Zhang Liu's idea for a shelter was very simple.

Using the grass roots and branches that can be seen everywhere and the two coconut trees in front of you that are as thick as your waist, you can build a two-sided rain shelter platform that may be used.

The long grass roots played a huge role at this moment; they were very resilient and very easy to obtain.

As long as you pull hard in the yellow sand, you can at least pull out three-meter-long grass roots.

As for branches used as support for large palm leaves, they are even more common.

In just a short while, he had collected all the materials and piled them on the ground.

First, there were two branches about two meters long and as thick as arms.

It takes a lot of effort to deal with them, and you need to stand on them and pull hard to remove the extra branches.

Their purpose is to be tied to the trunks of coconut trees and used as "beams" for shelters.

As for the main beam, it is two coconut trees.

Zhang Liu was lucky, as all the coconuts from the two coconut trees fell to the ground.

He had collected them in advance and put them aside. There were six in total, all dark brown in color, and had obviously fallen to the ground some time ago.

In this way, they can not only find new food, but also avoid the unfortunate fate of having the coconut shell opened like a certain Hainan village tyrant.

In addition to the two very thick branches, there are thirty-four branches of varying lengths, as thick as fingers.

Among them, the ten short ones are about half a meter long, and the twenty-four long ones are about one to two meters long.

Zhang Liu broke these off and prepared them to serve as leaf supports.

It takes ten branches to make it firm!

First, tie five half-meter long branches vertically on the two "beams" at a 90-degree angle.

Then lay large green palm leaves directly on top and tie five half-meter-long branches to it.

In less than ten minutes, the roof of the temporary shelter was completed.

Subconsciously turning his head to look at the western sky, Zhang Liu could not see anything that could help him judge the time.

But the sky outside was already as dark as four or five o'clock in late autumn, and the sea surface in the distance was completely gray and unclear.

Visibility is estimated to be less than 100 meters.

From this point alone, he knew that he had no time to waste standing there.

Arranging the remaining twenty-four branches crosswise, Zhang Liu began to build the envisioned windbreak.

At this moment, near the cave, Anya and Qin Ruoshuang were also busy with their own things.

They happened to meet halfway before, and after briefly explaining each other's situation, the two came up with a new plan of action.

Under the current circumstances, it would be an idiotic act to travel at least half a day away from the cave to collect fruits.

What if it rains...

Therefore, Qin Ruoshuang and Anya were ready to work nearby.

If there is a possibility of rain, it is irrational to bend over in a puddle to get water. Why worry about water sources when it rains?

As for food, dried lamb pieces and smoked lamb ribs were kept at the entrance of the cave.

Not to mention the more than sixty coconuts piled up nearby, the large pile of fruits Anya had collected during the day, and the various shellfish kept in simple foam boxes.

But when it comes to fire sources, the problem of both starting a fire and maintaining a fire has not been completely solved.

So after their discussion, collecting firewood and protecting its dryness became the most important project to be done at the moment.

Anya and Qin Ruoshuang respectively proposed two suggestions: to build a shelf on the pile of wood to prevent it from getting wet in the rain and to store some of the drier and lighter ones in the cave first.

The two of them did what they said.

Qin Ruoshuang was responsible for moving the small wood into the cave, while Anya, who was relatively more mobile, ran a little further away and started picking up various dry leaves under the coconut tree.

The three of them would collect these leaves in the past, but they would always be used to start fires.

Now it is to withstand the possible rainy days.

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

On the other side, similar to Zhang Liu, Qin Ruoyan also had to stop walking because the visibility was getting worse and worse.

When she stopped, she felt a little exhausted.

This is different from Zhang Liu who brought enough meat and fresh water with him before setting out, so he could replenish his energy at any time.

Qin Ruoyan originally planned to rely on banana trees for drinking water, and eat whatever she could find to solve the supply problem.

But there are no banana trees along the way, let alone any fruits.

Even if she occasionally encountered some strange-looking fruits, she would not dare to put them into her mouth.

So at this moment, Qin Ruoyan, who set out hastily without making any preparations or saying a word to her companions, was in an embarrassing situation where she was almost out of food and water.

Section 1#Volume 1 Let’s build a settlement on the deserted island first: Chapter 69 After holding the meat in your mouth, the taste will stay longer

The Chinese herbal medicine that Qin Ruoyan learned since childhood did not include much knowledge related to tropical plants.

Bending over and half squatting on the spot, she supported her knees with her hands, breathing heavily, and rested for a long time before she recovered.

After taking a look at the sky, Qin Ruoyan, who had no experience in the wilderness, just felt that something was wrong with the weather. It seemed to be too stuffy and it might rain.

But even though she thought it might rain, she didn't plan to build any shelter. Instead, she was secretly happy that it was finally cooling down.

Qin Ruoyan then began to look around for something nearby that could fill her stomach and help her get through the night.

Soon, two banana trees growing together came into view.

While she was overjoyed, she also reached out to her chest.

Unlike her sister Qin Ruoshuang who doesn't wear any accessories.

As the designated heir of the Qin family, Qin Ruoyan has a pure gold pendant with the word "Qin" on her neck.

The greatest function of this pendant is to symbolize the change of power.

In addition, it is used to store five special pills prepared for the Qin family heir in case of emergency.

Qin Ruoshuang knew about raw wood charcoal because one of the pills required medicinal charcoal.

At the same time, there is a 5-centimeter retractable knife inside the pendant. After pressing the "禾" character of the word "秦", you can immediately pull it out with a little force.

It is said to be pure gold.

It is not sharpened.

In daily life, the knife plays the role of a "secondary seal".

But during this period of time, this five-centimeter pure gold knife was simply sharpened with a stone.

It has become an essential prop for Qin Ruoyan and her companion in distress Gu Qingrou to pick mushrooms, open wild fruits, and dig banana cores.

At this moment, Qin Ruoyan was inserting a blade into one of the banana trees, and then twisting it vigorously in circles.

Even if it is a knife with a simple sharp edge, it is still a knife.

It is very easy and simple to use it to cut the banana tree, at least it is much easier than Zhang Liu's poking holes.

After completing a circle, you can practice pushing hard.

Soon, the banana tree fell to the ground in the direction of the force.

Unlike Zhang Liu, Qin Ruoyan was not so extravagant as to rely solely on banana cores as a source of drinking water.

After simply removing the outer layer of dry leaves, she cut the banana tree tendons into pieces and put them into her mouth.

Chewing hard, a bland and slightly astringent liquid gradually flowed in the mouth.

Purse your lips and swallow it hard.

Qin Ruoyan then began to feel that her throat, which had been dry to the point of smoking, was slowly becoming more comfortable.

Then he started eating the black bananas that Zhang Liu had directly discarded.

These little banana-like things have a very bland taste and look gross inside.

But for her, at least it is food that can fill the gastric mucosa.

At the same time, in the past few days, Qin Ruoyan and her classmate Gu Qingrou have also developed a technique for eating.

That is, as long as you don't bite the black seeds, you won't have a bitter feeling in your mouth.

After eating, she found a dry patch of grass and lay down. Looking at the dark sky, she began to miss her classmate Gu Qingrou, who had been left alone on the beach by her.

The two were washed to the beach together. Qin Ruoyan woke up first, and then woke up Gu Qingrou who was lying beside her.

Zhang Liu, Qin Ruoshuang and I had a great start and found an accommodation place which was different from Tamsui.

Qin Ruoyan and Gu Qingrou have been living in a daze.

It was not until midnight that they realized from the wolf howls coming from almost zero distance that they were neighbors with the wolf pack.

There were only palm trees on the beach over there, and there were no coconut trees that were everywhere near Zhang Liu, which were the most common food.

It's more about mentality, which is different from Zhang Liu who thought out the general plan for the future in one night.

The two had no idea what they should do or what they could do.

He didn't even think about going somewhere else to avoid the wolves.

I just stay on the beach every day, staring and hoping that rescue will appear in the next second.

Only when he could no longer bear the hunger did he venture into the dark forest to look for food.

Fortunately, the food inside was quite abundant and sufficient.

There are many kinds of mushrooms growing on rotten wood, as well as some fruits that have a sweet smell but cannot be named.

Later, Qin Ruoyan discovered that she could pick up a lot of crabs and other things at the beach after the tide receded, and then eat them raw to fill her stomach...

Although I didn't have a full meal these days, I wasn't too hungry either.

As for fresh water, it simply relies on a whole banana grove nearby.

The suggestion that the bark of banana tree trunks can be peeled and used as fresh water to drink was proposed by Gu Qingrou, who likes to watch wilderness survival videos.

The two also wanted to explore where the wolves drank water, perhaps they would find a large amount of fresh water.

But considering the serious consequences of a direct encounter with a pack of wolves, this idea was forcibly suppressed.

After calming down from seeing the smoke column, Qin Ruoyan began to feel regretful.

Just like what my sister sometimes complains about, my temper is really too bad.

I should go back and prepare, at least bring some fruits or something, and then talk things over with Gu Qingrou before setting off.

But right now, Qin Ruoyan was not very willing to go back directly.

The first is that it is easy to get lost when walking on the smear campaign.

Second is...

A not-so-responsible self-comforting thought emerged in her mind.

That was where he and Gu Qingrou had been before. Although there were many resources, they were always limited.

There were only a few banana trees, so after eating, one had to risk one's life to explore or find a place where the wolves could drink water.

After I left, Gu Qingrou had all those resources to herself, and she would be able to live a more comfortable life.

And it would be even better if we could find rescue this time.

Relaxing her body, Qin Ruoyan forced herself to start resting.

I don’t know how much distance I will have to run around the beach tomorrow, so physical strength is the most important thing.

But the uncomfortable feeling of hunger in her stomach was tormenting her terribly.

So hungry...

Qin Ruoyan closed her eyes tightly and placed her hands on her stomach, pressing it in an attempt to use this external effort to reduce her hunger.

Fall asleep quickly!
