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

Soon, the ground was covered with broken black plantains.

Taking out the mineral water and taking a sip of water to wash away the bitter taste on his tongue, Zhang Liu had to admit one thing...

The whole fruit of the banana tree cannot be eaten!

Zhang Liu opened each banana and inspected it.

Without exception.

It was full of gray-white flesh like rotten cotton wool and seeds like black pebbles.

Even if he hardened his head, he reluctantly put the tip of his tongue to the last one and licked it out to taste the taste.

It was also bland and astringent, like eating unripe persimmons.

Maybe it’s because there was no human intervention.

Zhang Liu sighed helplessly and shook his head, feeling quite depressed.

It’s okay that the sweet bananas I thought I could eat turned out to be plantains.

As a result, the bananas were still the same as those grown by Lao Ba himself...

However, in the spirit of not wasting, Zhang Liu started to burn the banana tree trunks as mentioned in the wilderness survival video.

It is said that there is an ancient tradition in Africa of using the core of banana trees as fresh water.

Use the front end of a sharp bone bayonet to cut a slit in the bark of the tree, and then pull it apart to reveal the layers inside.

At this moment, he felt quite a bit like he had returned from visiting the graves of his parents during the Qingming Festival, and then stolen several bamboo shoots on the roadside to make stir-fried bamboo shoots at home.

At that time, it was also layer by layer.

Soon, the entire inner core of the banana tree appeared in front of Zhang Liu.

It is as thick as sugar cane and looks white and soft.

Looks like it tastes pretty good?

He grabbed a piece and broke it off, then put it in his mouth and bit it hard. Zhang Liu's last good impression of the banana tree was gone.

This thing doesn't taste as soft and juicy as it appears on the outside.

Instead, it was like sugarcane bagasse that had already been asked for its first sip of juice. He needed to chew it several times before he could barely get the juice.

And the taste is still bland, astringent, not delicious at all!

Appearances are so deceiving!

At the same time, due to time constraints, I really didn’t think of it in advance.

Zhang Liu could only give up the idea of ​​digging a hole in the "banana tree stump" on the ground and wait for it to absorb the soil moisture automatically.

Instead, he cut the core of the banana tree into sections of suitable length, then casually pulled a relatively long grass root from the ground, tied it up, carried it behind him, and continued on the road.

Although there is not much juice, it is still okay to use it as a temporary thirst-quenching water source on the road.

Chapter 66 Men and women who are "running in both directions"

Walking striding at the junction of sea sand and soil, Zhang Liu reached out and pulled out a banana tree core from his back, then bit it into his mouth and chewed it hard.

Although this way of eating will not make the banana tree core in his mouth any more juicy.

But it will give Zhang Liu the feeling that he is a ruthless person enjoying the hardships.

As the road progressed, he had arrived at a relatively open area. The land in this area was severely desertified.

So it's basically sand that leaves a footprint when you step on it, and the albino soil is further inside.

And the sun has already reached the top of the head.

This is not the time to rush...

He reached out and peeled off the black T-shirt that was completely wet with sweat and fit tightly to his body, allowing the heat on his chest to leak out.

Licking his lips, Zhang Liu began to feel that his body was a little tired and the temperature outside was a little too hot.

He knew that what he should do now was to take a good rest instead of speeding up blindly.

Zhang Liu quickly ran to an unknown broad-leaved tree. After confirming that there were no dangerous snakes or insects nearby, he sat under the shade of the tree to rest.

While eating the mutton butt meat, Zhang Liu raised his head and looked at the obviously excessive clouds around the sun in the sky, and began to feel sad in his heart.

I shouldn't encounter rain.

It is said that when it rains on the beach, there is a high probability that it will be a storm...

In the cave on the other side, Qin Ruoshuang and Anya also finished the whole morning's drawing plan, and then returned together at noon.

The two of them were walking in the direction of a pit more than one meter deep.

So when she came back, Anya had a thick bale of hay in her hand, ready to make a bedding for her bed.

Qin Ruoshuang was holding a bundle of firewood on her chest. Near the pit was a small forest on the mountainside where Qin Ruoshuang often went.

Although it is called a grove, there is a lot of dead wood in it.

Zhang Liu used a lot of firewood to roast the leg of lamb yesterday, and he really needed to replenish it.

"Well... I'm so bored today!" Since there were only girls, her movements were much bolder. She reached out and pulled out the black underwear from her red sportswear, and Anya placed it on the newly laid straw mat.

Then he waved his palms and instigated them hard next to his cheeks.

"Well, it's indeed a bit stuffy." Qin Ruoshuang responded while handling the sheep's spine.

The method is slightly simple and crude.

She directly lifted the stone and knocked it on the hard bone. After the bone broke into pieces, she picked it up, briefly scrubbed it, put it into the clam shell, and boiled it with the shellfish.

It can also be regarded as a fish and mutton soup in disguise.

After all this busy work, Qin Ruoshuang was so tired that she was dripping with sweat and panting.

"In the afternoon, let's go to the beach and take a bath first, otherwise I'm afraid we'll be smelly of sweat tomorrow." Anya raised her arm, put it under her nose and smelled it, and Anya showed a strong expression of disgust.

"Well, you might as well take a bath." Qin Ruoshuang nodded, indicating that she agreed with Anya's suggestion of taking a bath. Then she got up and walked to the place where Zhang Liu painted his life, and used charcoal to draw a line at the bottom of the word "正" horizontal.

This marks the arrival of the fifth day.

Then Qin Ruoshuang stared at the word in front of her and said, "It would be nice if there was a place to take a bath."

In the past, at home, she lived a privileged life where she could ask the maid to fill a bath with hot spring water if she wanted to take a bath!

Now that I'm here, even when wiping my lower body, I still take off my own underwear sponge pad to temporarily use it.

Forget it if you don't want to think about it. Now that you think about it, Qin Ruoshuang feels particularly uncomfortable because of the huge gap between before and after.

"Actually, what you said last time about bathing in a pit is quite interesting." Anya walked to Qin Ruoshuang, touched the last word of the Chinese character with her finger, and then rubbed the stained stain between her fingers. Charcoal Chips said: "Why don't you change your plan this afternoon? I will go pick egg yolk fruits and you will be responsible for cleaning the pit?"

"But we have told Zhang Liu that we will go to the nearby area to check resources in the next two days, but he just left for half a day, and we went to deal with the bathing pool..." Qin Ruoshuang lowered her head, and her tone was very embarrassing.

"Let Zhang Liu soak for a while later!" She gently blew the debris off her fingertips, then waved her hand, did a one-arm pirouette, and then said in a very confident tone. : "At worst, I'll rub his back again to apologize!"

"Rub your back and apologize..." Qin Ruoshuang's expression was a little strange.

As a Chinese, she still can't understand why the Japanese insist on rubbing their backs so much.

Anya in front of her now used it as an apology...

Logically speaking, shouldn't this kind of behavior be considered a relatively shameful behavior?

"Yeah! Let me rub it for you later!" Anya nodded vigorously to Qin Ruoshuang.

The latter was speechless, but she was successfully persuaded by Anya.

The idea of ​​taking a bath is so tempting!

So go to the pit in the afternoon and work hard to clean up the stones and plant ash inside.

Recalling that Zhang Liu seemed to have said before that the plant ashes might be useful, Qin Ruoshuang began to think about where it would be safer to place the plant ashes later.

At the same time, Qin Ruoshuang's sister Qin Ruoyan was resting under the shade of a tree.

Compared with Zhang Liu who only sets out on the road when he has sufficient reserves of resources, he can sit under the shade of a tree and eat and drink before taking a good rest.

Her situation was more difficult. Qin Ruoyan could only use her tongue to lick her already chapped lips to moisten them.

But there wasn't much saliva on her tongue, so she had to skillfully bite the tip of her tongue to squeeze the salivary glands that were nearly exhausted.

For Qin Ruoyan, this time she just saw the smoke column and said goodbye to her companions in distress. Going out alone to look for possible rescue was really an act of risking one's life as soon as one's brain got hot.

But she also knew that it was not a good idea for her and Gu Qingrou to spend time in that area.

When all the edible mushrooms and wild fruits are gone, the banana trees that serve as a source of fresh water will be cut down.

Their fate is to die, or be forced to find a new place and encounter possible wolves.

Since that's the case, it's better to give it a try yourself first!

Grab a handful of ferns with larger leaves nearby and rub them hard to squeeze out some dark green juice.

Qin Ruoyan licked the salty and bitter grass juice on her fingers while forcing herself to calm down.

She was going to wait until the sun was not so strong, and then continue on her way.

Quite different from her sister Qin Ruoshuang, who once she falls into a pessimistic situation, she will start looking for someone to rely on to gain courage again. Qin Ruoyan's character is full of fighting spirit.

Even if she was in the current situation where food and water were scarce, she would still try to think about what she should do and what she could do.

But at this moment, the straight-line distance between Qin Ruoyan and Zhang Liu was less than three kilometers.

Chapter 67 When a girl says something with her mouth, she always makes a sound.

The seaside jungle gives people not only a sultry feeling, but also a strong sense of irritability.

As long as you hold a broad leaf and dance it vigorously, you can successfully drive away all the bugs that have been screaming near your ears.

However, as soon as you stop flapping, the insects will come back with a vengeance.

Zhang Liu, who continued this process for more than a dozen times, finally gave up the struggle and sighed helplessly.

He originally wanted to have a good sleep and rest, but now he was disturbed by these bugs.

The cave by the sea is better, there are no bugs or anything like that.

Since the wreckage of the plane had not yet been seen, Zhang Liu was very frugal in his food. He had only consumed a piece of mutton butt meat and half a bottle of water.

The banana cores he carried behind him had already been eaten by him as if they were sugar cane.

Not to mention, once you get used to eating this stuff, it tastes pretty good.

At least it tastes better than the banana fruit that looks like Lao Ba’s secret recipe.

He took a deep breath and felt his "stamina" recover.

Zhang Liu looked at the circle of sunlight that was gradually beginning to disappear outside the shade of the tree, and his expression gradually became serious.

And slowly stood up from the shade of the tree.

Starting from the fact that the sunlight was blocked by clouds and completely disappeared in the afternoon, Zhang Liu finally confirmed his worrying thoughts just now.

In this case, it is no longer possible to rain, but 100% sure to rain.

If we follow the description in that book of wilderness knowledge, there is a high probability that this kind of rain will be a heavy rain.

So there are currently only two options in front of us.

One is to rush directly to the plane wreckage.

According to Anya's description, the plane wreckage was a hollow place with a cover above the head.

It was most likely the part of the airplane galley that she snuck into before the accident.

Zhang Liu is not sure yet what will be in the kitchen.

But he was certain of one thing from Anya's information.

That is, I can rely on its hollow characteristics to hide inside and survive this possible storm.

Another option is to find a way to build a shelter from the rain.

Zhang Liu had no relevant construction experience at all and could only refer to some English wilderness survival videos he had watched.

But in short, you must not expose your body to rain, otherwise you will easily suffer from hypothermia and then catch a cold.
