Desert Island Survival Diary

Chapter 25 No.20 Eight days, the mysterious stone
The rabbit fur blanket was still very comfortable.

Last night, I covered this blanket up.

It's warm and comfortable.

However, there are still many shortcomings. As I said yesterday, the skin is a bit hard, and there is some smell, which is a bit smelly.

However, this is the perfect blanket for me!
Today I accidentally discovered at the stone pit that the sea water I transported in yesterday has been dried up, and there is already a thin layer of white crystals on the bottom of the stone pit.

Salt!
After being exposed to the scorching sun, the sea water has turned into the salt I want most, but it is still too little, and it is not the time to harvest it.

So I'm still sending in seawater non-stop. The weather is fine these few days. I must seize the opportunity. As long as I persist for a few more days, it should be time to harvest.

Judging from the layer of salt crystals in front of me, I should be able to get a small bottle of salt when I harvest it, if nothing else happens.

Although the quantity is not large, it is an extremely precious treasure for me who does not have any condiments.

I was running back and forth, and Xiao Hei was playing with the little crab.

It's good to have a goal, being busy makes me forget the loss.

Xiao Hei made me forget loneliness.

……

The whole morning passed in a hurry, and I was just about to call Xiao Hei to go back, but I found that the sea water was receding quickly.

It's low tide again!

This is a rare opportunity.

Low tide means delicious!

To this day, I still miss the oysters I was helpless last time, and I still brood over the conger eels that I wasted last time...

I didn't want to waste any minute, I quickly ran back to the hut, and took out the toolbox that the man left under the bed in the hut.

There were more than a dozen wrenches and screwdrivers of various types in the toolbox, and I didn’t pick one. I took out the largest wrench and a Phillips screwdriver, and rushed towards the sea.

I don't know when the tide will rise again, so every minute left for me is precious and cannot be wasted. Once I get what I want, I have to leave. I don't want to be washed away by the sea because of greed.

Xiao Hei was more excited than I was, and he boldly chased the receding sea water to a place far outside.

Now something may have caught its attention, because I saw from a distance that it was cocking its injured hind leg and lowering its head, as if it was teasing something.

The god of luck seems to have started to pay attention to me again recently. No, a lot of oysters on the reef made me drool.

The wrench easily opened the oyster. At this moment, everything seemed unimportant. All I could see was the off-white oyster meat that was slightly sweet in the mouth, elastic but not tough, and full of seawater flavor...

It's been too long since I have eaten delicious food.

The roasted rabbit meat is fragrant but tasteless!
Rabbit broth was fresh but tasteless!
The fish soup was tasty but still tasteless!
But this oyster is different, it has a natural taste of the sea.

I didn't dare to eat it because I was worried about my stomach last time!
This time, I don't worry anymore!

I can't refuse it at all!
The saliva washed away my lips and teeth like a rushing flood. Its powerful temptation made me grab the oyster meat exposed in front of my eyes and stuff it into my mouth impatiently.

"Boom!" My taste organs were reopened again!The feeling of salty fragrance once again spread on the tip of my tongue. Of course, besides the salty fragrance, there are also various flavors. They are blending and merging, dripping down the tip of my tongue.

"Mmm! Beautiful..." I closed my eyes and enjoyed all of this without even saying the taste. This is the smell of the sea.

No one would believe that tears of excitement flowed from the corners of my eyes just because I ate salty food again. To be honest, I didn’t even believe it myself!
I'm not a sentimental person, on the contrary, from the time I can remember until I was stranded on this goddamn desert island, I never cried, yes, never.

I consider myself a strong person. In the past, I worked hard for my career, for a bright future, and for the favor of the goddess. No matter how difficult it was, I would raise my head proudly. Now I am also persisting in order to survive.

But just now, I couldn't control my tears. Although there were only two drops, I really didn't expect that my heart would become so fragile.

The deliciousness of oysters makes me unable to stop at all.

Guess how many I ate!

I ate a whole eighteen…

In fact, when I ate ten, I started to remind myself that I couldn’t eat any more. I started to worry about my stomach and my digestion.

But the meat was poppy and I couldn't stop until I ate eight more...  

The feeling of fullness allowed me to regain control of my body.

"Self-control is still too bad." I shook my head, this has always been my biggest shortcoming...

The ebb tide is really a gift from God, delicious food can be found everywhere.

I think I should start to record the time of low tide and high tide, I remember, the ebb and flow of this tide is regular.I really regret that I didn't study hard at the beginning.

The kelp scattered everywhere, the small fish in the small pit too late to escape, the crabs running around, and the shells chasing the seawater receding slowly, these are my delicacies!Especially kelp, I have not eaten vegetables for a long time, and I am extremely eager for it.

I picked up a lot at random, and I piled them up on the beach.

There are more delicious food waiting for me to find, I eagerly walked to the shallow water.

Here, you can clearly see that the fish swimming around are very flexible, and it is very difficult to catch them. Of course, it is relatively easy to make a spear gun.

It's not difficult to make a spear gun, just sharpen the branch at one end, but I'm just saying casually, I don't have that good technique.

Of course, the most critical reason is because my goal is not fish!

That's what I'm aiming for!
Yes, I saw it!

I put my hand into the sea water as deep as my calf, and gently flipped the small rocks on the bottom of the sea, that's it, I saw its legs!

It didn't find me, and still thought it was hiding well.

It's a pity that it met me, and I discovered this delicacy last time, just because I had enough food last time, so I didn't catch it!
The hand gently covered it from the top of its head, and grabbed it.

It struggles like hell, but to no avail.

I became the master of its fate!

After I got it, I quickly pulled my hand away from the sea water to prevent it from escaping.

It's cute, but also incredibly delicious!It is a delicacy for many people. It is said that eating it raw is more delicious, but I dare not, I have never eaten its sashimi.

It's a baby octopus!Tasty personified!

I'm already imagining the feast it will turn into...
