Chapter 12 New Places

The next day, a few people went to the sea to catch fish very early while they were free. During this period of time, the ocean current changed, and the fish became less and less.

And Qin Xiaonian disappeared without a trace, and he didn't know where he went.

Without Qin Xiaonian's assistance, the work of catching fish was extremely difficult. Mu Keke and the others worked hard for a long time, and only caught a few half-sized fish.

The few people were exhausted, and walked back with a few small fish in despair.

Even when he went back, he did not find Qin Xiaonian.

"Where did this guy go? I haven't seen anyone for a day?"

Seeing that Qin Xiaonian didn't show up all day, Mu Keke couldn't help feeling a little worried.

Although the two had a quarrel yesterday, Mu Keke really didn't want anything to happen to Qin Xiaonian.

On the other hand, Chang Xinfeng was secretly delighted, he wished that Qin Xiaonian would not come back, it would be better if he died outside.

But he still showed a concerned expression on his surface.

"Yeah, he won't have any accidents, right? There is no one here. If something happens, there is no possibility of being rescued. Could it be that he..."

"Could it be what?" Mu Keke was instantly nervous.

"Could it be because of what happened yesterday that he got angry and just abandoned us and left alone?"

After Chang Xinfeng finished speaking hesitantly, his face immediately changed into an apologetic expression.

"Actually, he doesn't need to do this. There is no need to do such a thing because of me. In fact, the person who should really leave should be me."

"This……"

A trace of worry flashed across Mu Keke's watery eyes, but his mouth was still insistent: "Chang Xinfeng didn't expect you to be quite serious. If things are as you said, then I'm blind to the wrong person."

Having said that, she looked a little sad.

The worries and regrets in my heart became more and more intense. I shouldn't have gotten angry with Qin Xiaonian yesterday, but now I got angry with him and left.

Qin Xiaonian saved himself so many times, he really should not have done so.

"It's okay, Keke, you don't have to worry, I will protect you after he leaves, we will stay here quietly for a while and wait for rescue."

"Ah."

Mu Keke felt a little lost now, and nodded weakly.

At this time, there was a sound of footsteps, and Qin Xiaonian appeared in front of everyone carrying a bag of fish.

The expression on Chang Xinfeng's face froze instantly.

Damn!

How did he come back?
"You... where have you been? Why haven't you seen anyone all day? It makes me worry about you all the time."

Seeing Qin Xiaonian appearing, Mu Keke couldn't help rushing over, and punched him in the chest with Fenquan.

"I have my plan, don't worry." Seeing the worry and shyness in her eyes, Qin Xiaonian eased up a little.

"The fish has been caught for you, take it in and roast it." He said, throwing the fish in his hand to He Tao.

Seeing this, Chang Xinfeng's expression was a little unnatural, but he still squeezed a smile on his face and said, "Hey, let me just say, how could Xiaonian abandon us! I knew you must not be that kind of person."

Aftermath!
Qin Xiaonian could almost guess how he slandered him behind his back when he left.

His eyes were cold and he didn't speak, and he walked straight past Chang Xinfeng, leaving Chang Xinfeng standing there with an embarrassed face.

The fish was cleaned and put on the grill.

While everyone was feasting, Qin Xiaonian said slowly, "Staying in this place is not a long-term solution. The weather is getting colder and the direction of the ocean current has also changed."

"There will only be fewer and fewer fish here. If we don't find a new place quickly, we will starve to death within a few days."

As soon as Qin Xiaonian finished speaking, Chang Xinfeng immediately took over: "Looking for a new place? Where are you going?"

"Depart from the center of the island." Qin Xiaonian responded to Chang Xinfeng's rare words.

"Ah!" Chang Xinfeng pretended to be surprised: "This is not good!"

"Do you have any comments?" Qin Xiaonian glanced at him coldly.

"I think we should stay by the sea and wait for help, that's the best way."

"Walking indiscriminately will only consume our physical strength more, and facing a completely unfamiliar terrain, we don't know how dangerous it is, and we don't have any good equipment."

After a pause, Chang Xinfeng continued: "Make a hypothesis, if there is no suitable environment for us to live in, it will be difficult for us to return to this place. Where can we replenish food and fresh water?"

Chang Xinfeng said something, and the scene fell into silence.

Everyone seems to agree with these remarks. After all, when people get used to a place, they don't want to leave easily.

And the unknown journey may have many unknown risks. Although there is not much food here, at least it can shelter from the wind and rain.

Mu Keke also looked hesitant: "Qin Xiaonian, are you really planning to leave here? This island is so remote, if we leave the sea and go deeper, the possibility of asking for help is really zero."

Qin Xiaonian looked around at everyone present, and explained lightly: "I know what you think, do you still have the intention of leaving here?"

"I advise you to give up on this idea. I can tell you with certainty that if we continue to stay here, the chance of us being rescued by the outside world is zero."

His determination made Chang Xinfeng very upset, and he immediately jumped out to refute: "I don't agree with this, as long as we stay by the sea, there will be a glimmer of hope. If we leave here and go to the center of the island, we will really lose the chance of being rescued!"

Faced with such a cunning, Qin Xiaonian just glanced at him lightly, and said directly: "When you say this, please find out the route here."

"There is not even a single star here at night, which is enough to show that this place is not on the waterway at all."

"Unless the sun rises from the west and the driver's head is confused, he will drive the boat to this deserted place."

"Besides, the water depth in this place is very shallow. Even if a boat passes by, it can only go at least ten kilometers away from the shore, and if it comes over again, it will run aground."

"At such a distance, no one can hear you no matter how loud your throat is."

"Also, even if you put thick smoke on the shore, if others see it, it will be regarded as a natural fire at most, and they will come to check at the risk of being stranded?"

These remarks were well-founded, and Chang Xinfeng couldn't find a reason to refute them for a while.

"Instead of staying here and waiting to die, it's better to go to a place with more abundant food resources. There is almost no fresh water here. If it doesn't rain, we will face the danger of dehydration in a few days.",

Qin Xiaonian gave the last reason.

But Chang Xinfeng was like a fly, staring at every gap he found: "You don't have to worry about this."

He said triumphantly: "If it's just because of the fresh water problem, then I think I can solve it."

"Hey, I thought Qin Xiaonian has a lot of experience in survival. Don't you even know the most basic desalination of sea water? Sea water is inexhaustible. As long as we arrange the tools, the fresh water collected every day is enough for us to use. .”

He looked like an expert, and looked at Qin Xiaonian with contempt.

After hearing these words, Mu Keke showed a rare look of appreciation.

Seeing this, Chang Xinfeng couldn't help being elated, and couldn't help but open his mouth to ridicule Qin Xiaonian: "Qin Xiaonian, don't think so much about it, do you just want us to stay on this island for the rest of your life? Come on, let you be a cow or a horse at your command?"
