Desert Island Survival Diary

Chapter 6 Day [-], Shelter Construction
The temperature in the morning is too comfortable.

Along the way, I didn't feel any fatigue.

Today, I'm going to the other side of the mountain.

Because I saw a small river running through the entire forest at the top of the mountain.

Getting through the woods is really difficult.

I knew it when I came here.

So I try to choose to go along the edge of the woods.

Suddenly, a black shadow leaped not far in front of me.

It took me by surprise.

Unfortunately, I didn't see clearly.

This reminded me that if I ran into some fierce beasts without any weapons, it would be a disaster.

So I looked back and found a thick branch, which I held in my hand.

Heart, slightly stable.

I walked nervously along the way.

A dense tree canopy blocks out the light.

Sunlight shines through the gaps in the leaves.

A silence.

The rustle of trampling wet leaves accompanies me as I move forward.

A cold feeling came to mind.

"quack"

The sudden cry made me jump.

It turned out to be just a bird.

When the sun rose to the top of the head, I came to the river seen from the top of the mountain.

The water is still flowing, flowing towards the sea in the distance.

The densely packed fish in the water are still struggling to swim upstream.

I am very excited, this fish is so big, it is bigger than my two hands combined.

But I'm not very hungry now, I still move on along the river.

Facts have proved that my choice is correct. When I approached the sea, I found a clearing.

This open space is not particularly large, about two or three hundred square meters in size.

What excites me is that the land is slightly raised, and there are no big trees around. The whole land looks like an upside-down pot on the ground.

On the right side of the open space, there are several fruit trees, which are exactly the same as the ones near the small pond that I ate before.

Food, water, open space.

I have no reason to refuse.

I decided to build my shelter here with my own hands.

The first thing that needs to be solved is the material. I don't want to pick up the dead leaves, which attracts bugs too much.

I really don't want to lie on this dirty ground anymore.

Woke up several times to shake some bugs off of me.

In the woods, I picked a few dead branches as thick as an arm.

Well, almost a meter long.

After stacking them in the middle of the clearing, I ran to the distance to find some vines.

I also dragged a few fallen dead trees over.

Next, I started my build.

Insert the dead branches thicker than an arm into the small hole I dug, which is about [-] centimeters long.

Then, I covered the soil and stepped on it.

The shape of the final dead branch is like this.

Every two are interlaced with each other.I stuck it firmly in the ground.

There are four staggered combinations in total.

Form a rectangle shape.

Then I put the two small trees on the interlaced dead branches.

I tried to sit down, and the dead branch took it.

perfect.

Although it is only a prototype, I am very satisfied.

I can imagine what I'll be able to lay on it when I'm done.

However, now, I need more dead branches to spread across the small trees.

There are not many dead branches, but there are very few thick and thin ones. I searched for a long time, but I didn't find many, so I had to be less picky in the end.

Lay the picked branches, tie them with vines, and reinforce them.

A prototype of a bed came out, with four feet firmly inserted into the ground, and two small trees were erected by me, with dead branches I laid in the middle of the small trees.

Gently, I lifted my legs and lay down.

"Squeak."

Fortunately, it did not collapse, I am very satisfied, after all, it was successful the first time.

Well, it is a bit hard and uneven, and it may be uncomfortable to lie down for a long time, but at least it can be off the ground.

Have to find something soft to lay it on, I think.

My ideal is of course dry hay.

But not here.

And those huge leaves of coconut trees.

But I don't want to climb trees right now.

What a waste of time.

In the end, I could only choose the leaves of those small thorny trees.

These things are relatively easy to come by.

It didn't take much time, and I brought a lot of leaves.

After going back and forth like this a few times, I laid out several layers.

Tried to lie down again,

A lot of leaves squeezed to the edge and fell off.

Much better, I think.

Time always flies when you are busy.

I didn't pay much attention, the sun was about to set.

This makes me a little anxious.

I quickly ran to the river, jumped into the calf-deep creek, bowed my head and drank my fill.

There are many fish in the shallow water, they are not afraid of me, but continue to swim upstream by rubbing against my legs.

I thought I could grab a few easily.

But it turned out that I was very wrong, they hit so hard that they hit me in the face several times.

Made me sore.

In the end, one unlucky guy was captured by me.

At first I thought the fish might be salmon, but on closer inspection I realized it wasn't, but a fish I didn't recognize.

But it doesn't matter, as long as you can eat, there is no need to think so much.

Using my hands and teeth, I finally opened the belly of the fish, cleaned out all the internal organs, washed it in the small river, and strung it with a branch.

The night had already begun, and after picking a few more fruits, I returned to the open space and lit a fire.

The fish is huge and takes a very long time to cook.

Drops of oil were forced out by the high temperature, and the sound of sizzling wafted along with the fragrance.

Finally, the fish was grilled, and the taste was average, but the meat was quite a lot and it was too bland.

The lack of salty taste has made me so uncomfortable recently that I want to drink a few mouthfuls of sea water.

It turns out that salt is also addictive.

I decided to find a way to get something salty tomorrow, I thought while eating the fish.

After eating the fish and adding a few fruits, I was completely full.

Lying in this new "bed", I feel very uncomfortable.

I started to hate the night.

Today, I feel extremely lonely, and I really want to find someone to talk to.

Alone, I feel like I'm floating in a vacuum and I can't breathe.

Perhaps a roof should be added to this "bed" tomorrow, it occurred to me.

Well, a fence should be added around this too, even if it's some stakes.

There is also a black shadow flashing in the woods. I don't know what it is. I only saw a shadow, but I can be sure that it is not small.

About the size of a fawn, I think.

Except for a few days when I was very tired, my brain was particularly active at night.

The more this happened, the more lonely and helpless I felt.

The ideas are all wild and unconstrained, and they don't help me now.

I think I might lose sleep...

Wait, they must still be looking for me.

No wait, they can't find mine.

……

In my thoughts, I finally fell asleep.

I woke up once after falling asleep, and I seemed to see a dark figure near me.

But when I woke up and sat up, I found nothing
