In this way, the shelter that can serve as a shelter from the rain has been completed.
The fire is placed next to the main trunk of the tree, and the angle of the curtain fabric is stretched and tied into a slope facing the fire, which can best reflect the heat.
As for rain protection.
It is currently raining moderately, and with the leaves above the head acting as the first layer of filter, there is not much rainwater that can fall on the curtains, and even if there is, it will be blocked by the curtains.
There was no rush to put the second piece of curtain cloth on the ground to serve as a cushion.
Zhang Liu took off his clothes and walked to the palm tree with a fire hammer in the rain. Then he began to collect the large fallen palm leaves and chop down the two-meter-high palm tree that was still young.
After several trips back and forth, the entire shelter was covered with a thick layer of palm leaves, and a lot of edible palm cores were collected.
Then Zhang Liucai laid out the second curtain cloth.
After sitting down and feeling it for a while, he was very satisfied with the thick feedback coming from his buttocks.
But Zhang Liu's work was not over enough to sit down and rest.
Because there is still the work of collecting fresh water.
Replenishing water sources during the rainy season is theoretically very simple, so he set out with only three bottles of mineral water.
I've drank two bottles along the way.
If you drink another bottle at night, you will be out of water tomorrow.
At this moment, the sky is full of rain, but how to make the rain fall accurately into the stomach is a technical job, but Zhang Liu has very skilled experience in this.
Just place the alloy pot directly outside to collect water.
As for the sheepskin bag with a fist-sized opening, a water-catching prop in the shape of a "funnel" was made from palm leaves.
After all this work, it was completely dark outside.
Probably because of the rainy season.
The entire jungle seemed to be "dead", without any vitality at all.
Only the dim light from the fire behind the shelter provided scant illumination.
Without staying outside longer, Zhang Liu returned to the shelter.
First, he lit a big fire, then placed the palm core next to it and lightly roasted it. Then he took out a small curtain cloth from his backpack and wiped all the rain off his body.
Take off your shoes, then your socks.
After Zhang Liu poured more than half of the bottle of fresh water into his mouth, he poured the remaining water on his feet.
It's considered a simple cleaning for it.
In this jungle, what he needs to ensure most is the health and safety of his feet.
As for dinner, it’s a piece of Qin Ruoyan’s “honey meat waffle” with all roasted palm core.
Although palm core is not very hungry, it can still provide a strong feeling of satiety after eating it with meat floss.
As for this piece of meat floss, Zhang Liu commented that it was salty, sweet and choked his throat.
In order to sleep more comfortably, but with a sore throat, he finally had no choice but to walk to the alloy pot in the rain and drink several sips of cold rainwater...
Lying on the curtain cloth, listening to the pattering of the leaves above his head being hit by the rain and the occasional silent sound of rain falling on the curtain cloth, Zhang Liu also fell asleep quietly.
When he fell asleep, Qin Ruoyan and others near the mountainside had also finished their dinner and started chatting and making work arrangements before going to bed.
Since all the meat was given to Zhang Liu, what they ate tonight was taro with fruit, and palm core was used as a refreshing dessert after the meal.
Anya, Xiang Wanying, Lan Yueting and the other three were going to the goat jungle in the rain tomorrow. There was currently a lot of salt in the mountainside shelter, so they planned to imitate the trap method Zhang Liu had used last time.
As for Su Yan, she was sticking her butt out and getting ready to enjoy the massage provided by Qin Ruoyan.
Probably because she was too tired during this period, she had menstrual cramps on the second day of her period.
"By the way, Yanyan, are you born like this?" Qin Ruoyan asked curiously while massaging Su Yan.
Gu Qingrou was a natural, she had already learned about it from the other party.
But Qin Ruoyan really didn't understand what was going on with Su Yan.
"After getting sick the day after tomorrow, it was affected by the medication." After a long silence, Su Yan replied in a low voice: "Classmate Ruoyan, I don't really want to talk about this topic, can we stop talking about it?"
"Okay, sorry." Qin Ruoyan smiled, then decisively put away her curiosity and decisively avoided the topic.
The simple checking, touching and massaging with fingertips has ended, and now comes the real action.
She bent her index finger and pressed it hard with her knuckles...
When it comes to massage, you must use force, force, and force.
"Well..." His whole body tensed up, and he opened his mouth to let out a slight moan.
At this moment, Su Yan very much wished that Zhang Liu could be behind her...
In this case, you can enjoy the pain coming from this special part.
Sitting next to her, chewing palm cores as a joke, Gu Qingrou only now understood how exaggerated her expression would be when receiving Qin Ruoyan's massage.
After chewing on two sticks in succession, she began to feel sorry for Su Yan, who was gasping for breath...
When Qin Ruoyan finished massaging Su Yan, the white-haired girl was lying on the bamboo bed like a salted fish, unable to move.
All she had left now was the strength to hold her head high and breathe.
However, when she heard Anya propose rock-paper-scissors to decide which four people would sleep on the bed and which four would sleep on the floor, Su Yan still tried her best to raise her little hand to participate.
Accompanied by the crackling sound of the bonfire in the bamboo house, the eight girls were assigned and began to rest.
At the same time, the moderate rain outside the bamboo house continued to fall without stopping. The area it covered was not just Zhang Liu and the girls. The banana shed where Zhou Fang and the others were located also fell within the "strike range" of the rain.
"Let's try drilling wood to make fire tomorrow!" Zhou Fang was currently stuffing a large handful of dried banana bark into her arms.
This was the ignition material that she had started drying with her body yesterday. After today's failure, Zhou Fang was ready to continue drying it.
"Yeah!" Next to Zhou Fang, Gu Xixi agreed while silently holding her palms that had been scratched.
Today's attempt to make a fire by drilling wood still failed. It was the same situation as before where there was smoke but the fire could not be started...
"Let's switch to Shuyao and me tomorrow. Let's try a few more times!" Opposite Zhou Fang and Gu Xixi, Zhao Yiran, wrapped in a bath towel, lay on the ground and said, "I don't know what went wrong. Why is it always just Smoke, no fire..."
As she spoke, her tone was somewhat helpless.
Chapter 5 Guilt from dozens of kilometers away (monthly ticket reward plus Chapter 34)
Next to Zhao Yiran, Song Shuyao, who had once accused Zhang Liu of "not respecting himself and not following etiquette", was lying naked and waiting to fall asleep.
Although she has a set of clothes woven from palm trees.
But wearing it on such a rainy day will really feel very boring.
So every time it was time to go to bed, Song Shuyao would take off her clothes and sleep.
Only in this way can she ensure that she can sleep more comfortably.
As for the others, Zhou Fang would also take off her clothes to reveal a set of pink underwear. Gu Xixi would sleep in a stewardess uniform because she didn't wear underwear, and Zhao Yiran would just wrap herself in a bath towel.
Hearing the conversation between her companions, Song Shuyao silently curled up her body to resist the seemingly pervasive feeling of moisture.
After these days of training, she no longer has the inexplicable arrogance of "Why don't you eat minced meat?"
Occasionally, Song Shuyao would think of the only time she taught someone a lesson, which was when she saw Zhang Liu buying water for Anya with a flattering smile on his face for a mere 1000 yuan.
In fact, she didn't want to show any sense of superiority at the time.
But as a classmate, Song Shuyao really felt that Zhang Liu's behavior was embarrassing.
In her mind, the so-called poverty cannot be changed.
If the other party buys water for Anya, it is considered as providing a service.
So there is no need to hand over the water with a flattering smile on your face...
But now, Song Shuyao has begun to understand and understand Zhang Liu.
Because if anyone can give her a set of comfortable clothes now, Song Shuyao estimates that besides the reward, she will definitely be grateful...
Sighing deeply, she turned her body to face the three people behind her, and then slowly fell asleep.
Although it's just a hunch.
But Song Shuyao had already guessed that she and others might not be able to survive this rainy season.
For her, apart from not being able to live to see her family members, her biggest regret was not being able to properly apologize to Zhang Liu.
If you have a chance.
Song Shuyao vowed that she would explain and apologize to Zhang Liu!
It is too ignorant to explain myself.
Apologize for the attitude of standing and talking that time without pain in your back.
........................
The next morning, Zhang Liu was woken up abruptly by water drops dripping onto his cheeks.
Wiping the moisture on his face, he looked slightly confused, then glanced at the curtain in front of him, and the confusion quietly disappeared.
Although a simple shelter made of curtain cloth can have a very good waterproof effect, it cannot withstand the rain that falls all night.
At this moment, there are already many water droplets seeping out of the inner layer of the curtain cloth. Although due to the angle and gravity, they will slide down the curtain cloth and then drip outside, there are always a few drops. will fall.
It was one of the drops that woke up Zhang Liu, and more fell on the wood next to him.
Stretching, Zhang Liu sat upright in the shelter.
Turning to look to the side, he found that the bonfire under the tree had turned into a pile of smoking white ashes.
However, above the ashes, you can also see the air being distorted by the high temperature, which shows that the fire has not been extinguished.
Zhang Liu had already prepared for this.
Before going to bed yesterday, he placed some wood in the shelter in advance.
The reason is that they can be dried by the bonfire last night, so that the body can warm up this morning.
Even in the tropics, the temperature drop after rain is relatively obvious. Although the temperature cannot drop to the point where you have to wear two pieces of clothing to keep out the cold, your bare thighs and arms exposed outside will still feel a little cool.
The best way to deal with this situation is to boil a pot of hot water and drink it into your stomach.
Picking up the slightly dry wood in the shelter, he then pushed aside the layer of white ash on the fire, and the red charcoal underneath was immediately exposed.
"Whirring whirring……"
With the slight blowing of Zhang Liu, the fire that had been extinguished for a while burned again, thus beginning to drive away the coolness and moisture in the air.
Although the smoke is choking, you will feel warm inside your nose after smelling it.
The moderate rain outside is still continuing, with no signs of stopping.
After walking to the alloy pot and sheepskin bag to collect fresh water in the rain, Zhang Liu glanced at the sky. He was just about to experience the first-person view of the rain.
Then the rain hit my eyes...
Turning his head in panic, Zhang Liu blinked to relieve the sour feeling caused by the rain falling into his eyes. Zhang Liu secretly wondered in his heart whether it would rain continuously in the next time...
After a night of collection, there is already more than half of the rainwater in the alloy pot.
The sheepskin bag was completely full, and even the cold rainwater had reached the outside of the "palm leaf funnel".
With the pot in his left hand and the bag in his right, he returned beneath the shelter of the curtained fabric.
The next step is to boil the water and make breakfast.
However, under the current circumstances, it is basically impossible to dig an earth stove.
First of all, there is a time crunch.
For Zhang Liu, if he finishes exploring the jungle early, he can confirm the situation of the island earlier, so it is absolutely impossible for him to spend half a day making earthen stoves at such a short rest point.
The second is the environment.
Although the underside of the tree roots is not as overgrown with weeds as in the open space next to it, even the weeds are so difficult to dig out, let alone the tree roots...
Not to mention the current rainy conditions.
The dirt has no slope and is fine.
