Desert Island Records: PUBG

Chapter 5 Darkness
The depth of the puddle was very low. Zhou Hui poured the water into the small iron pot after filling it up with the mineral water bottle. Using this method, he filled the small iron pot with water little by little.

Considering his physical strength, he didn't bring the big iron pot. The iron pot was too big, and he couldn't carry the iron pot full of water with both hands.

But as the water increased, Zhou Hui found sadly that even this small iron pot was only half filled with water, and he could barely lift it.

Impatient, the mineral water bottle was squeezed and stuffed into the trouser pocket, so he could only return with the water with difficulty.

Even on the road, he could only take a short distance, rest for more than ten seconds, and then continue to return with trembling and sore arms.

When he fully brought it to the place where he wanted to go back, it took him more than twice as long to carry it back, and he was so tired that he was sweating profusely.

Fortunately, the place to return to is not a beach, but a dense forest, three meters away from the shore, otherwise it will take a longer time to return completely.

This place was specially selected by him on his way to fetch water, and he planned to build a temporary camp here.

It's not too far from the beach. Although it's covered by dense branches and leaves, you can still see the beach clearly. It's also not too deep, there are no mosquitoes, and there are gravels on the ground, but the terrain is very flat. Generally speaking, there is no what a bad place.

However, the reason why Zhou Hui chose this place is actually a small tree here.

One grows crookedly, the trunk is slightly thicker than a thumb, roughly like a "centipede", a small tree.

The iron pot was slowly placed on the gravel floor before Zhou Hui straightened up and looked at the small "centipede" tree that was at a 45-degree angle towards the beach.

His initial idea was to continue to stretch the small tree towards the direction where the sea bends. On the beach, he still remembered that there was a hemp rope 6 or 7 meters long. Trees farther away, fixed at a 45-degree angle to serve as the "backbone" of the tent

As for the rest of the tent, the branch backbone is naturally the small branches that look like "centipede feet" on the main trunk.

After making sure that nothing was missing, Zhou Hui poured the water from the small iron pot into the big iron pot, and prepared to go to the puddle again.

Before going, he turned around and glanced at the golden-red sunset by the sea.

The setting sun is like gold and blood, and even the ocean is shrouded in a golden red, which is very beautiful.

Therefore, he must speed up!

After a moment of silence, Zhou Hui took action immediately. He didn't know whether it was stimulated by the ever-changing environment around him or the coconut fruit before. all of these.

Otherwise, God, it would be really dark.

Next, after fetching water again, Zhou Hui made sure that the water resources were sufficient, and went to the "garbage gathering place" on the beach for the second time, and took away the hemp rope that was still half floating on the beach.

By the way, I took the three stones under the coconut tree and some of the firewood into the dense forest, and then brought back all the remaining firewood outside.

During the last time of exploring the island and searching for supplies, Zhou Hui started to pick up stones and some larger leaves.

The stones are used to fix the tent, and the large leaves are needed to cover the tent. Although there is still a large piece of plastic sheet he found on the beach, he doesn't have much energy to tidy up such a big tent. We can handle tomorrow.

What needs to be mentioned is that on the way of collecting leaves, Zhou Hui was very lucky to find a kind of fruit, no, it was food.

In the current situation, anything that can be eaten can be called food!

Stopping in front of a small tree half the height of a person, Zhou Hui slowly squatted down, looking with great surprise at the green round fruit that was only half the size of a jujube hanging on the plant.

There are many fruits hanging on it, but he doesn't know what kind it is, and he doesn't know if it is poisonous.

After a moment of hesitation, more than a dozen blue fruits went into the pockets of his clothes. Zhou Hui decided to finish the current work first, and then slowly study these small things when it was time to cook the food.

The stones were collected very quickly, and they were moved back to the place first. There were also leaves with large leaves, but it was a pity that they were only "also". I couldn't find another leaf like this, so I had to ask for it, and broke off some palm-sized leaves.

Returning to the chosen camp, the leaves and hemp rope were all thrown on the gravel.

At this time, there was less sunlight on the beach, and as for the forest, it was already covered by darkness, and the line of sight could only be regarded as visible.

After arranging everything in an orderly manner, Zhou Hui exhaled, wiped the sweat off his forehead, and then tried his best to prop up his eyes that were about to close, and even slapped himself on the face before continuing the last sentence matter.

pitch a tent.

With his last strength, he pulled the tree trunk desperately, trying to continue to tilt in the skewed direction until it reached a 45-degree angle. One end of the hemp rope was suddenly looped around the tree head, and he tied it tightly. The two places on the top of the tree where there are branches are tied twice in succession.

Then, in the direction of the coast, three meters away from the tent, I tied the other end with the middle section of the hemp rope, and tied it three times repeatedly at three places on the trunk of a tree.

After tying, Zhou Hui was panting heavily and was already exhausted, but he still didn't dare to stop. He used the stones he brought to fix the branches of the tree trunk to the ground, and the collected leaves threw themselves on the trunk. Determine how to flap the leaves, so that the leaves can be pinned to the branches of the trunk so that they will not fall when touched.

In the end, he even ran out of breath to the beach where the light wind had already blown, and returned to the camp with a handful of sand, covering the gap between the branches and the stones that fixed the branches, leaving no place where the tent touched the ground. Gap, for fear of animals or sea breeze coming in.

However, the tent is mainly based on the second half of the small tree near the root, and the highest point is only one meter high. When sleeping, the body lies down and the legs are curled up a little, and the space is enough.

After throwing it at the end, it was set up at the door of the tent, hanging down from the tree trunk to block the upper half of the big leaves. Zhou Hui tiredly piled the last stones and two iron pots into the tent.

Finally, he bent down to go in by himself, and pulled back the dead branches he found casually. The plants with leaves on them blocked the lower half of the tent entrance, and then pierced the fallen leaves with dead branches, so that he could barely connect. together, form the "gate"

In this way, the simplest tent is finally completed.

However, Zhou Hui in the tent felt that this almost cost him half his life.

At this moment, the sky outside had definitely darkened, and Zhou Hui, who was curled up in the tent, could only see shadows.

In this way, he was in this small shadow, listening to the distant, quiet but uninterrupted waves and the occasional humming of the sea wind...

After a while, he took out the lighter from his pocket in the dark, and then the sound of iron wheels rubbing against each other sounded:
A little flame burst out, dispelling the surrounding shadows in an instant, illuminating everything that the firelight could touch in the simple tent.
