After living on a desert island, they all plotted evil against me.

Zhang Liu added the last two comments because of what happened last night.

"Are you complimenting me?"

After thinking carefully about Zhang Liu's evaluation of himself, he asked Lingying.

"Of course I'm complimenting you!" Zhang Liu nodded and continued: "By the way, have you finished the pottery I asked you to make?"

"Thank you for your compliment. The pottery is ready!"

He was very happy to accept Zhang Liu's praise for himself.

Xiang Lingying stood up and pulled the other party to the side of the shelter.

What was displayed in front of Zhang Liu was a clay product that looked like an oversized casserole.

Next to it was a small semicircular clay disk with four finger-sized holes in the middle.

Ignore the discs whose uses you don't know for now.

This pottery, which is similar to an oversized casserole, looks wider and taller than the original small clay pot, but compared with the largest clay pot currently, it is a bit smaller.

Overall, the clay pot in front of him met his requirements.

It's just this disc that makes Zhang Liu feel a little curious, but no matter how he looks at it, he can't figure out the function of this disc.

If it is going to be used as a shallow pot, what are these holes open for?

"This is the lid. I remember my dad mentioned it before when I was practicing cooking. Covering the lid when boiling water or cooking can effectively speed up the process and preserve the heat of the pot!"

Seeing Zhang Liu looking at the clay pot lid, Xiang Lingying whispered to the side.

And she pointed to the hole on top and added: "If you want to use this, you can add a rope to the back for carrying it."

"I'm going to change my evaluation of you now." After hearing Xiang Lingying's explanation, Zhang Liu, who had never thought of adding a lid to the pot, turned to look at the girl next to him with a blank expression and said with a smile: "You still She’s a very smart girl.”

It was just what he said.

Xiang Lingying's expression was not very happy, but slightly disappointed.

"Uh? What's the matter?" Zhang Liu scratched his head in embarrassment. He originally thought that after such a compliment, the other party would be happier. Zhang Liu was at a loss for a while.

He was obviously speaking in compliments... Why did Xiang Lingying have such a disappointed expression?

"I'm fine..."

He spoke in a low voice, then turned his head and walked to the shelter to sit down. Xiang Lingying continued to stare at the fire in a daze.

Although she said she was fine, everything she showed at the moment was silently saying "I have something to do, come and ask" from beginning to end.

After a few seconds of silence, it was getting dark now and time was quite urgent, so Zhang Liu had no time to ask Xiang Lingying in detail.

Instead, he walked to the nearby kiln with clay pot No. [-] in hand, preparing to put it down for firing.

Then he suddenly discovered that there were six already-fired pottery bowls in the kiln!

"Hey? Why is this bowl ready?"

Zhang Liu's confused voice made Xiang Lingying, who was embarrassed about why the other party suddenly ignored him, find the opportunity to get up and walk over to communicate.

After asking about the situation, she also spoke about how she, Qin Ruoyan, Qin Ruoshuang, and Gu Qingrou had spent the night here and helped burn the earthen kiln.

After explaining, Xiang Lingying skipped the angry part and began to sit next to Zhang Liu.

And she would take the initiative to speak from time to time, with a bit of deliberate flattery in her tone and eyes.

As the flames in the earthen kiln rose again.

Zhang Liu and Xiang Lingying also started dinner.

The combination of egg yolk and papaya can also provide them with a barely satiated intake.

This time up the mountain, Zhang Liu picked a total of twenty papayas and 37 egg yolk fruits. After the two of them ate like crazy, there were still twelve papayas and twenty egg yolk fruits left uneaten.

"My stomach is so full..." Leaning on a pillar in the shelter, Zhang Liu turned to look at Xiang Lingying who was wiping his feet next to him. He also suddenly asked: "By the way, you seemed angry just now?"

Upon hearing this inquiry, Xiang Lingying stopped for a moment, and then whispered: "So you saw that I was angry?"

Turning her head to look at the boy next to her aggrievedly, she asked, "Why don't you persuade me?"

After blinking, Zhang Liu didn't know what he should say for a moment.

How should I put it? Everyone must have noticed the obvious move he made to Lingying just now.

But in his opinion, he didn't say or do anything wrong, so there was no need or reason to persuade him.

"You are not allowed to keep calling me smart in the future!" Seeing Zhang Liu's expression, Xiang Lingying also opened his mouth to explain his behavior just now: "Sister Wanying told me before that if a boy feels that a girl is too smart, If you do, he will take the initiative to stay away from you, and I don’t want to be kept away from you.”

In fact, part of her was pretending just now, she wanted to be hugged and coaxed by the boy she liked in front of her, just like she was coaxed when she cried yesterday.

Who would have thought that Zhang Liu wouldn't do this at all...

"Uh... Okay, then I change it to capable?" Zhang Liu scratched his head, and after hearing Xiang Lingying's words, Zhang Liu directly revised his previous evaluation.

"That's too unpleasant. Let's change it!"

After learning from the past experience of being ignored when she was angry, Xiang Lingying no longer dared to show her temper in front of Zhang Liu, and she continued to return to the state of speaking her thoughts directly.

4 A man who starts to miss the taste of women...

before falling asleep.

Xiang Lingying finally agreed with Zhang Liu's three comments: "Beautiful girl, very pure, very cute."

Then I lay down happily in the triangular shelter and slept.

Zhang Liu turned to look at the girl next to him who fell asleep in almost half a minute. After a few seconds of silence, Zhang Liu fell asleep.

He also decisively lay down and started to rest.

To be honest, he was slightly "unexpected" at the moment.

Because Zhang Liu originally thought that Xiang Lingying would do something to him, and then he could take advantage of it.

It turned out to be nothing...

Exhaling slightly the turbid air accumulated in his lungs, he closed his eyes and began to work hard to get himself into a resting state as soon as possible.

However, Zhang Liu, who was closing his eyes, always felt that he had missed something important today...

At the same time, it was time for the girls on the mountainside to go to bed.

And they enjoyed the experience of "sleeping behind closed doors" on a desert island for the first time.

First, bamboo branches as thick as fingers and more than two meters long were tied horizontally to a three-meter-long arm-thick bamboo, and then hung with ropes at a doorway about two meters wide.

In this way, a simple outward-turned bamboo door is completed. It is very simple, but also very durable.

Just push it open with your hands or flip it up when you go in, and it will be unobstructed.

If necessary, the curtain can be tied directly from the inside, so that the bamboo door can be directly fixed on the bamboo house, so that people from outside cannot easily come in, which can protect privacy very well.

During the day, Xiang Wanying also went to the bamboo house to do the test.

Basically tie the bamboo door like this, and then block the triangular vent holes left at both ends of the roof.

This bamboo hut has become a nearly enclosed space, although the degree of rain protection in a violent storm has not been tested.

But the double-layered roof prepared by Su Yan and Anya is already reliable in blocking light, making the interior of the bamboo house almost completely dark.

So she had no doubts about the ability of the bamboo house to keep out the rain.

You must know that the first bamboo house Zhang Liu built at the foot of the east mountain only used a single-story structure.

But it can still stand and protect everyone in the violent storm like before, without even leaking at all.

Before going to bed, a group of girls also worked together to make a simple bamboo bed in the bamboo house.

They moved the fire next to the bed indoors and looked at the flickering firelight in front of them. Everyone felt an indescribable warmth in their hearts.

"It feels like everyone is on vacation outside, experiencing primitive life..." When she spoke, Anya was holding a slender bamboo branch with a snow-white palm tree core inserted into it.

After Zhang Liu made the pot of "Laba porridge", she had begun to pay attention to this kind of food that could be obtained in large quantities but could not provide too much satiety.

It's just that the naturally slightly bitter taste of palm tree cores makes Anya unacceptable, so she is forced to give up the idea of ​​using it as gossip.

But now, Anya has thought of a new combination!

That's toasted palm tree cores with a little bit of honeycomb honey.

In her mind, in this way, she can have the texture of palm core and the sweetness of honey. It is a perfect win-win, win twice!

"Some are like crispy rice candies." She stretched out her soft pink tongue and licked off the tree core chips stuck to her lips. Anya handed it to Su Yan, who was staring at her intently, and said: " Yanyan, would you like to taste it?”

"It was really delicious."

Taking the roasted palm core from Anya, Su Yan tasted it carefully, her eyes lit up slightly, and she also gave a quite pertinent answer.

Beside the two of them, Lan Yueting and Xiang Wanying looked at each other, and then they both began to imitate.

Everyone made a lot of food like palm cores and put them in the bamboo house tonight, originally planning to use them as breakfast tomorrow morning.

But now that Anya has developed this fresh and delicious way to eat it, they decisively use it as a bedtime snack.

In the small bamboo house, Xiang Wanying, Lan Yueting, Su Yan, and Anya finished their dinner and once again showed off their meal against the core of the palm tree.

Although few people realized it.

But this meal now is a "late night snack" that they have not experienced for a long time.

........................

The time soon came to midnight, and compared to the four girls who had eaten and drank enough on the mountainside, they slept very soundly at night.

Zhang Liu, who was full after just eating fruit, touched his stomach that had started to growl, and then sat up silently.

Next to him was Xiang Lingying, who was still breathing evenly.

At this moment, the light in the bonfire in front of him had gradually dimmed. Zhang Liu got up and got out of bed and quietly put several pieces of firewood into it.

After watching the fire expand again, he also looked at the fire in front of him and sighed slightly.

The moon tonight has returned to its fullest period, so it looks like the white jade plate in Li Bai's poems, and the light is also very abundant.

Hanging brightly in the sky, it can even replace part of the firelight, preventing the entire forest from being blinded.

Silently looking at the fire, Zhang Liu was thinking about his future plans in his mind.

Tomorrow we will catch sheep. If we can't catch them, we will go straight up the mountain. The goal of going up the mountain is to build a bamboo house and make taro powder.

Then he waited for the rainy season and set off across the jungle to see what resources there were that could be used, and also looked for other people like Gu Qingrou.

For example, Song Shuyao who mocked him for being spineless, or Zhao Yiran who followed Song Shuyao with a doggy expression on his face, but still looked down on him...

Of course, Zhang Liu hopes that he can meet the gentle teacher Zhou Fang.

It's shameful to say that after his parents passed away, he somewhat relied on Zhou Fang, an adult woman who was 14 years older than him, as his mother...

After thinking about it, he suddenly came back to his senses.

Shaking his head helplessly, Zhang Liu found that he had thought too much...

But overall, he feels that he still doesn't have any big problems with his time arrangement.

At least he could accomplish the very clear goal of crossing the jungle.

But after crossing the jungle...& This was something Zhang Liu had never thought about.

At the moment he only had a vague idea.

Cross the jungle, search the entire desert island, make sure there are no victims like yourself, and find a way to build a boat and go out to sea.

Make a boat...

When his thoughts came to this idea, Zhang Liu couldn't help but smile bitterly.

He has never even been on a pirate ship in an amusement park since he was a child. His only ship-related experience was when he learned origami in elementary school and was able to make origami boats.

For ships that can go to sea, the requirements for various front-end technologies will definitely be very high...

Chapter 4: The kindness of a hunter is to respect food

So when it comes to this, Zhang Liu really doesn't have a clue.

The only concept I have is that it was mentioned in Robinson Crusoe, as if someone once crossed the entire ocean in a canoe.
