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

But she also closed her eyes and began to wait silently for death to come.

Like Lan Yueting, Su Yan also longs for a miracle to happen.

There are three stages of death by thirst.

The first stage is thirst, body temperature rises, sweating decreases, and blood flow slows down.

The second stage is fainting, which occurs when the body's water shortage reaches [-]%. The blood is concentrated, the skin folds, and it is easy to faint.

The third stage is when the water shortage reaches [-]%, and the body will suffer irreversible organ failure.

The fourth stage is death.

The entire process only takes up to five days.

At this moment, Lan Yueting and Su Yan, who were drifting on the sea, had entered the early stage of the second stage.

Both of them were weak and fainted from time to time.

But now, the wreckage they are on is only more than 40 kilometers away from the island where Zhang Liu and others are.

And the surface ocean currents also move in this direction.

A seagull flew over the wreckage, crossing a long white line and reflecting into Lan Yueting's narrowed eyes.

She thought for a while and felt like she had thought of something.

But as the pain came, Lan Yueting fainted again...

"This...should be fresh water, right?"

Compared to Lan Yueting, Su Yan and others who were desperate because of fresh water, Qin Ruoyan was at the foot of the mountain at the back facing the new discovery in front of her, so dazed that she started talking to herself.

Ahead of her was a shady stone nook.

Inside the corner, a green pond about three meters square was sitting quietly.

It is green from head to tail, with many large-leafed ferns growing around the pond.

These plants have similar shapes.

Most of them have lanceolate leaves with fine scale-like shapes on them.

The rhizome is long and slender, but it is quite strong in supporting the entire plant. This may be related to the dense independent feather shape of the leaves.

These plants are not important.

Her focus was entirely on the pool at the moment.

But just looking at the green color of the water, Qin Ruoyan felt a strong sense of discomfort.

This stuff is definitely not something people can drink directly into their mouths.

She found water because she saw from a distance that there were more green plants here, so she prepared to come here to avoid the noon sun.

The smell by the water is not pleasant.

Not to mention the smell of corruption, there is also a bit of chest tightness in the air.

Qin Ruoyan, who has studied traditional Chinese medicine, naturally understands that these breaths that make people feel chest tight are similar to miasma.

Therefore, no matter whether this miasma is poisonous or not, I can't wait any longer.

Holding her breath for a moment, she stepped forward and filled a bottle of slightly hot green pool water with the empty mineral water bottle.

Then he decisively got up and went to another drier, shady place to take shelter.

"It looks green, but it's still clean inside the bottle." Qin Ruoyan raised the bottle and took a look, then complained in a low voice and started her lunch.

At the same time, she also drew a line on the notebook map and marked "maybe drinkable fresh water"

Qin Ruoyan had no way of measuring how deep the pool was.

She didn't dare to get too close to a pool like this where she didn't know what was in it.

But Qin Ruoyan has some basic common sense.

As long as this bottle of water is brought back to the cave and can be drunk after boiling, it means that the drinking water problem will be completely solved in a short time.

Thinking of this, her mood suddenly improved a lot, and she was even more eager to see Zhang Liu when she went back and announce the good news to him.

Inside the cave, Qin Ruoshuang, who had arranged thirty more rope traps, was looking at Anya's grass skirt in a daze.

"How about it, doesn't it look good!" Anya twisted her aching waist hard, and said excitedly: "Would you like one for you?"

"..." Qin Ruoshuang was silent for a while, then shook her head decisively.

It’s better not to wear such avant-garde clothes.

But she also thought of one thing.

The clothes I and others are wearing are just school uniforms for daily wear.

Although the quality is good, it will always break over time.

by that time……

Qin Ruoshuang suddenly remembered what her sister said about Zhang Liu using curtains to make him a suit of clothes.

Maybe I should get some clothes earlier.

She looked at the curtains on the ground with a thoughtful expression on her face.

Anya sat down on the foam board and started preparing lunch for the two of them.

Some shellfish picked up from the beach were stewed in soup, along with the fruit scraped from three coconuts.

In the past few days, with the decline in food standards, Anya has turned her eyes to the two dried fish placed on the charcoal pile countless times.

But they were dissuaded by the two sisters.

These two fish, which are easy to save after killing them, are already considered "strategic materials" in the cave.

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

"Zhang Liu, it's so hot..."

Near the huge pyrite stone, Zhang Liu and Gu Qingrou were sitting under the shadow of the stone to rest.

"There's nothing you can do about the heat, just drink some water." Zhang Liu scooped out a shell of water from the sheepskin bag on his chest, carefully handed it to Gu Qingrou and said, "Drink more to ease your stomach, and you won't eat anything at noon. "

The food in his backpack currently includes fifty snakeskin fruits, eight egg yolk fruits, ten pieces of honeycomb honey and a bag of honey.

The honeycomb honey was a snack reserved by Zhang Liu for Gu Qingrou and Anya, and he had no share.

Honey is a strategic resource and should not be used unless absolutely necessary.

If calculated based on three meals a day, it would take about three and a half days to walk from here to the cave.

The food was really not enough for two people.

So after a brief discussion, they have decided to eat two meals a day.

Three and a half days is seven meals.

Even so, two people can only share seven snakeskin fruits and one egg yolk fruit in one meal.

Food is in very short supply, but there is no need to worry too much about fresh water.

On the side of the plane wreckage, Zhang Liu also reserved a box of rainwater.

Although there may be problems with deterioration, as long as it is boiled, it will not be too troublesome to drink.

"Yes." After taking the shell, Gu Qingrou began to quickly replenish herself with water.

Zhang Liu in front of her stood up and started looking around for particularly dry and small vines.

He was going to start preparing things for the fire at night.

The chirping of birds in the jungle never stopped, and occasionally Zhang Liu would see larger, unfamiliar birds stopping on the branches to look at him.

But looking at the tree, which was at least two meters tall, he had no way to capture it.

"When Qin Ruoyan and I saw this thing for the first time, we thought it was left artificially, and we were very excited all the time." After drinking water, she turned to look at the large and small crystals on the pyrite, Gu Qingrou said Zhongya also sighed a bit.

She felt a little lonely after listening to Zhang Liu explain what pyrite was.

"Nature is still very magical." Zhang Liu continued subconsciously, and then continued to collect dry rattan, but then he also asked curiously: "By the way, student Gu Qingrou, what were you drawing just now?" Something?"

After resting in the morning, Zhang Liu opened his eyes.

Gu Qingrou, who was sitting next to her, also hurriedly folded a piece of paper and stuffed it into her jeans pocket.

At first he thought the other party was drawing a map.

So Zhang Liu directly said that he had already painted it and asked him to take it out for comparison.

The result was that she was directly rejected by Gu Qingrou, and she showed a situation where she would rather die than take it out.

"Well... just draw some things you like... right?" When Gu Qingrou said these words, she had some self-doubt, and then she said in a more serious tone: "Classmate Zhang Liu, this is a girl's secret!"

"..." Zhang Liu couldn't figure out what little secrets the other party could have in this barren mountain. He could only shake his head helplessly, and then began to collect things suitable for ignition around him.

Then he and Gu Qingrou stayed under the shade of a tree to escape the hottest period of time.

Section 27 #Volume [-] A stable food source is the first step in development: Chapter [-] Shelter before spending the night

Zhang Liu had never thought about giving up rest and rushing at full speed even under the scorching sun.

But since we are not familiar with the ground here, if the pig suddenly stumbles and gets injured, we will be killed on the spot.

Secondly, the jungle after this is really inconvenient to confirm the direction.

Even on the map that Qin Ruoyan had perfected, there were basically not many landmarks.

The only reference item is the coastline.

So they had to walk in the outer layer of the jungle for a while, then look at the direction of the seaside and adjust their direction.

The speed also needs to be slowed down.

If you get lost in this forest, the consequences may be more serious than injury.

After resting, Zhang Liu and Gu Qingrou set out on the road through the jungle again to avoid the sun's most scorching hours.

But at this moment, Gu Qingrou's portrait has been completed.

After Zhang Liu fell asleep, she opened her eyes again and drew the "thing she liked more" in front of her on the paper.

Such classmate Zhang Liu is really handsome!

The corners of her mouth raised slightly, and Gu Qingrou felt that she was walking with more strength.

Is this what my mother said, that I will definitely fall in love with my marriage partner in the future, and then the power of love will appear?

But Zhang Liu has not married himself yet.

Gu Qingrou felt a little confused, but after her fingers touched the portrait in her butt pocket, her confusion disappeared again.

The originally white sun in the sky gradually turned red. Zhang Liu also stopped, then turned to Gu Qingrou, who no longer raised the corners of his mouth but started breathing heavily, and said, "It's time for us to start building a shelter."

"Ah... I'm so tired!" Gu Qingrou, who was relaxed and had been walking for a long time, put her hands on her knees and felt like she wanted to cry.

Compared to Zhang Liu, who seemed fine, she almost felt like not a single bone in her body belonged to her as she was just recovering from a serious illness.

"Sit down and rest, and keep an eye on your backpack and sheepskin bag." Zhang Liu looked at Gu Qingrou and casually prepared a relatively simple task for the other party.

During these days of getting along, he had figured out Gu Qingrou's character.

The other person has the kind of personality that really wants to do something to help.

Therefore, you must arrange something for the other party, otherwise this guy will fall into the delusion of "I am so useless".

Zhang Liu saw this from Gu Qingrou's previous behavior of always saying that she was useless.

"Uh-huh!"

Just as he thought.

After hearing the instructions, Gu Qingrou nodded vigorously, and then sat down next to the backpack and sheepskin bag without moving.
