Shannon Island Lord

Chapter 6 Self Reliance (6)

Stepping into the woods, a strong gust of water and humidity hits my face, and I feel uncomfortable all over.

Several hours of wind and rain, coupled with several hours of high temperature exposure, made the temperature in the forest higher than outside, and the humidity and water vapor were particularly heavy.

In order not to get lost, Zhou Yu carved marks on the tree with shells while checking his surroundings.

People are afraid of comparison, but also like comparison, because under the comparison, the originally relaxed mood will become depressed, and the depressed mood will become relaxed.

The strong wind in the middle of the night almost broke the delicate grass and trees.Looking at these forests that had been ravaged by the strong wind, Zhou Yu was relieved of the tragic situation of his "roofed" shed in contrast.

Continuing to go in, Zhou Yu checked the time on his watch, and after walking for more than 40 minutes, he didn't know where he was.The humidity and water vapor in the woods, coupled with this weather, he was already sweating profusely, and his clothes stuck to his body, making him very uncomfortable.

He rested under a tree, took out the coconut water, took a sip or two and put it in his backpack.I still don't know where the water source is, so I need to save some water.

As long as he finds the water source, and then finds a suitable place near the water source, then he will complete his goal.

But there is only one way to find the water, and that is to find the animals.

Only the animals here know where the clean water is.

but……

In the surroundings, there was no trace of animals at all.

"Crack~!"

Suddenly, when Zhou Yu was resting under a tree, there was a sound as if he stepped on a branch.Although the voice was small, it seemed rather abrupt in this quiet forest.

Zhou Yu's heart suddenly rose, not knowing whether it was a human or an animal making the noise.He tightened his grip on the half-meter-long "knife" hammered from aluminum alloy.

Of course, it looks like a long strip of aluminum alloy.The folded aluminum alloy bar is as hard as steel.It is also the most powerful thing among all his items.

"The sound just now seems to have come from the left."

Zhou Yu thought about it, squatted down slowly, and then slowly stretched out his head. At the same time, he also put the aluminum alloy bar in front of him to guard against it.

However, when he slowly turned his eyes to see the situation behind the tree, he was also speechless for a while—there was no trace of a single animal.

He inspected again, and after confirming that there were no animals, he got up and walked forward.

When he got nearby, Zhou Yu looked at the wild fruits under his feet, and then at the sparse fruits on top of his head, and he also understood—an unknown blue fruit fell from the tree just now, and happened to hit a branch.

After clearing up his lost emotions, Zhou Yu went on the road again, continuing to search for water sources and shelters, and at the same time, he did not forget to engrave a mark.

He couldn't figure out how big this island was, but he guessed it would be very big in two words.When he was inspecting the island yesterday, he drew a rough shape in his mind.

Similar to the shape of a half moon, he also found that the northwest and southeast directions are more concave, and there are also many cliffs, which are obviously caused by the impact of sea water all year round.

As for whether there are wild animals such as sheep, wolves or leopards on this island, he is not sure.If there is, he is not surprised, after all, this island is very suitable for animals to live.

Rich vegetation must be rich in fresh water resources, this is a theorem!
Zhou Yu continued to shuttle around all the way, and Zhou Yu didn't know where he was, but the time was already past three o'clock in the afternoon, almost four o'clock.

Along the way, he also saw many fruit trees.

But the fruits of these fruit trees are very different from the fruits sold in the society, both in appearance and size, they are far smaller than the ones I have eaten before.Apparently it was caused by geographical location.

If he hadn't identified it carefully, he wouldn't have been able to recognize what kind of fruit it was.

orange!

What he has seen so far is only this kind of fruit.Of course, coconut too.

But he knew it was time for him to turn around, otherwise it was never a good idea to stay here at night.

"Ok?"

However, just as Zhou Yu turned and walked back, he suddenly stopped.

He seemed to hear a subtle voice, although it was very small, but he was sure that he heard it, this voice was obviously different from the previous one.

He listened carefully, and then slowly walked towards the place where the sound came from.He walked very quietly, for fear that the sound would be too loud and disturb his hearing, and he was also afraid of disturbing the owner of the sound.

"What~"

Suddenly, a relatively clear sheep cry came to Zhou Yu's ears.

He opened his eyes wide, suddenly excited.

Sheep sound!
This is the cry of sheep!

He didn't know why there were sheep on this seemingly isolated island, but it was obviously not something he cared about.

He continued to walk forward.

In less than a minute, he hid behind a tree and saw four black and white sheep drinking water by a pond not far away, two big and two young—it should be a family.

Zhou Yu's eyes fell on the pond.

The pond is not big, with a visual width of about one and a half meters, with incoming and outgoing water, and it is a place of running water.

Before he left, he wanted to take a closer look at the location to see if it could accommodate people.

Although it is convenient to get water if you live near a water source, it is also dangerous, because you are the only one who needs to drink water.And the "natives" of the island.

The movement made by Zhou Yu's actions immediately made the four sheep vigilant, and they all turned their heads to look at him.

When they saw Zhou Yu walking towards them, the four sheep all ran in one direction.

Zhou Yu didn't bother, he didn't have the tools now, and he couldn't catch the sheep, and even if he caught them, he didn't have the tools to deal with them—even if he had the tools, he might not be able to catch them.

Looking at the pond, there should have been a pit here before, and the water flow accumulated here, forming a small pond.

The water flow from the source of the pond is still relatively large. It passes through the pond and then flows out into a shallow ditch, winding in one direction.

The surrounding terrain near the pond is slightly open and flat compared to the outside, as long as the nearby trees are cut down.

But all of this must be established after the system is restored tomorrow.As long as he gets enough tools, he can make this place what he wants.

After briefly checking the situation for four weeks, Zhou Yu filled three bottles of water and left.

I have achieved my goal, and unexpectedly found a sheep that can be raised as a carnivorous captivity, which is a small surprise that exceeds the goal.

When Zhou Yu returned to the camp, it was already past six o'clock, and the sun only had a thin layer of afterglow reflecting on the sea level.

He ate all the fish that were grilled until their skins were burnt. As for the dozen or so crabs he took away at noon, they had already entered his stomach.

After all, the meat of more than a dozen crabs is not as much as that of a fish, so it can only be regarded as a snack.

After simply solving the problem of dinner, Zhou Yu continued to deal with the shed.

Although there was a lot of wind and rain in the middle of the morning, the palm leaves on the roof of his shed were tied tightly. Although they were lifted, they were restored to their original appearance after being paved and added with some leaves.

The wood that has been exposed to the sun for a day is almost dry, and the fire is still burning brightly at night.

He peeled a few slightly ripe small oranges he brought back from the forest, put the peels into a small pot, and boiled water.

Orange peel boiled water to drink, it is not advisable to drink too much, the appropriate amount can help digestion and refreshment, supplement some vitamin C and other functions.

Although the oranges are smaller and the taste is not as good as those eaten in the society, the taste is still the same. Zhou Yu also misses the unique aroma of oranges.

Although I have lived on the island for more than two days, it feels like I have lived for a month or two.This made him miss his previous life immensely.
