Smuggling Daming

Chapter 102 Finding Water

Xie Lingyun saw Zhou Zhong kill Shangquan Hong Er, and she didn't show any surprise expression at all. As early as when she wiped out the Quanluo Chamber of Commerce, she had seen Zhou Zhong's ruthless methods against the enemy, even from the bottom of her heart. , she also admired Zhou Zhong's character very much.

After killing Shangquan Hong Er, Zhou Zhong dragged the other party's body to the woods behind the beach and buried it, but when he came back, he found Xie Lingyun was grilling fish, which made him very strange: "Where are you from?" fish?"

"It's the one you gave Shangquan Honger just now. Although it fell on the sand, I took it to the beach and washed it, and I can eat it later!" Xie Lingyun smiled brightly at Zhou Zhong, but Zhou Zhong But he was taken aback, because the other party gave him a very strange feeling. This feeling was like they had returned to the scene when they got together in the cabin of that small boat.

Seeing that Xie Lingyun roasted the fish on the fire for a while, she tore off a piece of fish and tasted it first, then walked to Zhou Zhong and said, "It tastes good, it's like adding salt after being washed by sea water." Yes, try it too!"

Zhou Zhong was really hungry at this time, he reached out and tore off half of the fish and began to eat it.Seeing how Zhou Zhong was eating fish, Xie Lingyun smiled slightly, and ate the same fish for a long time, but her way of eating fish was much more elegant, her white fingers tore off the white and tender fish meat and sent it to her vermilion lips, It looks very beautiful, but Zhou Zhong is devouring his food, which really spoils the scenery.

After eating the fish, Zhou Zhong lay down and slept for a while. After all, he didn't sleep all night last night. Now after eating, he felt drowsy immediately and couldn't wake up.The same goes for Xie Lingyun.Although she had been in a coma for a long time before, her body was still very weak, and she also fell asleep by the fire after eating.

It was not until the afternoon that Zhou Zhong woke up suddenly, and at the same time he grabbed the air with his right hand, which made him startled, and immediately jumped up from the ground.Because when he was sleeping, he deliberately kept the waist knife and wooden gun at hand, so that he could deal with emergencies.Secondly, he was also worried that Xie Lingyun would be bad for him.After all, Zhou Zhong was always on guard against this scheming woman.

"Bastard!" Zhou Zhong jumped up and took a look, only to find that the wooden spear was thrown together, but the waist knife was gone, and Xie Lingyun, who was sleeping opposite him, was also gone, which made Zhou Zhong more sure of his guess.Thinking that Xie Lingyun stole the weapon and left.

Thinking of this, Zhou Zhong immediately rushed out of the rock pile with a wooden gun, and wanted to find the direction where Xie Lingyun was escaping, but what he didn't expect was that Xie Lingyun was holding a waist knife in one hand on the beach not far away.Holding the hem of the skirt with one hand, as if carrying something.At the same time, he lowered his head and looked for something in a reef.

Seeing that Xie Lingyun didn't run away, Zhou Zhong was relieved, so he walked over to have a look and asked, "What are you doing?"

Xie Lingyun also noticed Zhou Zhong's arrival at this time, and immediately raised her head to show him a bright smile, and at the same time stretched out her hand to caress her hair that was blown by the sea breeze behind her ear, and said, "Just now I saw that you were sleeping very soundly. I was hungry, so I came to the beach to find something to eat. I found that there are a lot of abalones and sea urchins on the reefs of the beach, and I have already dug a lot. Do you want to try it?"

As Xie Lingyun said, she opened the hem of the skirt in her hand and let Zhou Zhong take a look. There were indeed a lot of abalones and sea urchins that had just been dug out. These two creatures are usually attached to rocks, and sea urchins have thorns on their bodies. Therefore, they can only be dug from the stone with sharp tools.

Seeing Xie Lingyun's expectant eyes, Zhou Zhong couldn't refuse. He reached out and took two sea urchins and peeled them open, revealing the sea urchin seeds inside and eating them. Although these things are very fishy, ​​they are very nutritious. In his previous life, he I also ate a lot.

"It tastes good, but don't eat too much of these things, or you will easily get sick!" Zhou Zhong also smiled and said, they still don't know the situation on the island, if it is really a desert island, then they have to think here There is a way to survive. Although sea urchins and abalones are nutritious, they also have parasites. Eating too much is definitely not good.

After Zhou Zhong finished speaking, he took the wooden spear and came to the place where he caught fish in the morning, held the wooden spear and stabbed it for a long time, and finally stabbed another unlucky big fish.At this time, Xie Lingyun also scraped some naturally condensed sea salt from the rocks by the sea, and then she was in charge of grilling the fish, while Zhou Zhong climbed up the cliff on the side of the beach, preparing to observe the topography of the entire island.

After waking up, Zhou Zhong still had some extravagant hopes, hoping that this is a small inhabited island, so that they could find a way to go back through the residents on the island, but he also knew that this place should still be on the coast of Daming. Since the sea ban, The overseas islands are rarely inhabited, let alone this is a small island.

Sure enough, when Zhou Zhong boarded the cliff and looked around, he found that the entire island was smaller than he imagined. The area where they were located was the mountainous area of ​​the entire island, and it was also the highest point of the island. Surrounding the two cliffs were strangely shaped large There is a rock, and there is a small forest in the middle of the island, which is the forest where he obtained firewood before. If Zhou Zhong passes through the forest, he will reach a relatively wide beach, at least several times larger than the beach they landed on. times.

Mountains, forests, beaches, these are the whole picture of the whole island. It is estimated that the area of ​​the whole island should be about one square kilometer. If Zhou Zhong's feet are not injured, the whole island can be turned around in half an hour.Moreover, Zhou Zhong also carefully looked at the island, and there was no sign of any human habitation on the island, and what's worse, he didn't see any obvious water source on the island.

Without water, this discovery made Zhou Zhong's complexion suddenly heavy. If there is no food, they can live for at least a week or even half a month, but if there is no water, they will probably die of dehydration within a few days .Now that he didn't see an obvious source of water, he had to figure out a way to find drinking water, or both of them would die of thirst in the end.

Just when Zhou Zhong returned to the fire on the beach with a heavy heart, Xie Lingyun had already grilled the fish. Compared with Zhou Zhong's hastily grilled fish in the morning, Xie Lingyun's carefully grilled fish was much more delicious. In particular, she didn't know that there was no water on the island, so she specially sprinkled salt on the grilled fish. Although it was much more delicious, it would only make people thirstier after eating it.

"The thing is like this. There is no one on the island and there is no obvious water source, and the area is very small. It is already late today. I will go to the island tomorrow to see if I can find drinking water. If I can't find it, we will Both may die here!" Zhou Zhong took a bite of the grilled fish in his hand, and introduced the situation on the island to Xie Lingyun.Although he would become thirstier after eating food, he would lose strength if he didn't eat it. Under this kind of deserted island, he had to maintain a certain amount of physical strength.

"Your foot is injured, I will go find water with you tomorrow!" Xie Lingyun said after listening to the situation on the island, after thinking for a moment.Zhou Zhong did not object after hearing this. If they want to survive on the island, they must work together, and in this lonely environment, they need to support each other.

The two did not rest after eating the fish, but went to the woods and cut a lot of firewood, and then set up a large bonfire on the beach, so that if the Xie family sent someone to look for them, they could follow along. Find them in the direction of the campfire.

Zhou Zhong and Xie Lingyun slept next to the bonfire at night. Xie Lingyun was on duty in the first half of the night, responsible for adding firewood to the fire, and Zhou Zhong was on duty in the second half of the night. The night passed like this, but no rescue boat appeared.

The night passed, and Zhou Zhong and Xie Lingyun, who hadn't touched a drop of water since yesterday, felt extremely thirsty, their throats seemed to be smoking, and they couldn't eat anything at all.However, Zhou Zhong still caught a fish, and then squeezed out the water from the fish and dripped it in his mouth. Although this could not quench his thirst, it added some water to his thirsty body.

Next, Zhou Zhong took a lot of wet firewood and put them on the fire, turning the flames on the fire into thick smoke, and continued to point out the direction to those who were looking for them. The journey to find water.

At the beginning, Zhou Zhong set his eyes on the cliffs on both sides of the beach where they were, because there are many caves on the cliffs, which are likely to store rainwater from the sky, so he and Xie Lingyun first climbed up to Zhou Zhong's beach yesterday. I have been to the cliff, and then I searched seriously.

In fact, it proved that Zhou Zhong's guess was correct. The stored rainwater was indeed found in the cave on the cliff, but the rainwater had been stored for too long, and most of it had turned green and deteriorated, making it undrinkable at all. In the end, they had no choice but to look depressed After getting off the cliff, as for the cliff on the other side, you don't need to guess and you know that the situation must be similar to the cliff on this side, so there is no need to waste time and energy.

There was no clean water source on the cliff, so Zhou Zhong and Xie Lingyun turned their attention to the woods next to the beach. Although the woods were not very big, they were very lush. Even in winter, the ocean was warmer, so the trees here Most of them were not withered. When Zhou Zhong looked down yesterday, because of the cover of branches and leaves, he couldn't see clearly what was going on in the woods.

However, to the disappointment of Zhou Zhong and Xie Lingyun, they stumbled around the small woods several times, but still did not find any water source, but found a lot of dewdrops on some wide leaves, and they drank the dewdrops while walking, In the end, although I didn't completely quench my thirst, I felt that my throat felt much better.

However, as the sun rose, the island also warmed up, which also made the dewdrops on the leaves no longer found. In the end, Zhou Zhong had to take Xie Lingyun through the woods to the big beach he saw on the cliff yesterday. Seeing the yellow sand all over the ground in front of him, Zhou Zhong couldn't help feeling desperate, and there was no possibility of water here. (To be continued.
