Framed at the beginning: Female educated youth forced to marry disabled military officer

"You guys stay here and watch the ship and them, in case there are wild animals or something. We have weapons."

The crew flashed their knives, forks and sticks.

"Then take this gun." The guard said. Thinking that they might not be able to use guns, he simply explained.

After looking at Meng Xiaoman and Captain Chen, he handed the gun to Captain Chen.

Captain Chen took it readily and said, "Okay, I've touched the shotgun before. This thing should be similar to a shotgun."

It had just rained heavily and the roads in the forest were very muddy. Coupled with the dense vegetation and entangled branches and vines, it was difficult for people to walk around in it.

Captain Chen initially thought that Meng Xiaoman would be unable to walk after a while. Unexpectedly, later on, even he was so tired that Meng Xiaoman never even said a word about tiredness.

The group walked for more than two hours before they found a cave that could provide shelter from the wind and rain.

"At night, some people will sleep on the boat, and the rest will spend the night here." Captain Chen asked people to clean up the inside of the cave, cut down the weeds at the entrance of the cave, and clear an open space for a bonfire.

Bonfires not only provide warmth but also provide protection from wild animals. Along the way, they encountered several pheasants and hares, and also saw some animal droppings, which should be from other wild beasts on the island.

There was no water source near the cave, and eating there would easily attract wild animals, so Captain Chen led everyone to set up a stove on the beach to cook.

Fortunately, there are pots, pans, spoons and some condiments on board, so it won't be tasteless. Moreover, seafood can be picked up on the beaches and rocks. Wu Guihua and Zhao Juan led the female soldiers to pick up many seafood such as razor clams, oysters, octopus, mussels, etc.

These female soldiers experienced the fun of rushing to sea and temporarily put their worries behind them. From time to time, joyful shouts were heard on the beach.

"Sure enough, I'm still young. I was scared to death on the boat, but now I'm happy again." Shi Cuimei said to Meng Xiaoman while washing the pot.

Captain Chen took a few water bags from the boat and asked Meng Xiaoman if he wanted to go find the water source with them. After looking for a cave, Captain Chen discovered that Meng Xiaoman was very familiar with the mountains and forests and had very good physical strength. If it hadn't been for her reminder just now, he would have almost been bitten by a snake. This time I went to find water, so I took the initiative to ask her if she wanted to go.

Meng Xiaoman took the bucket and went with him, but this time he was not so lucky and couldn't find it after walking for more than an hour.

"It must be because the island is too small and there is no fresh water stream. Or it is on the other side of the mountain." Captain Chen beat his sore legs.

"Captain, you can rest here for a while. Xiao Ma and I will go look there again." Captain Chen was nearly fifty years old and was running back and forth and couldn't keep up with his physical strength.

"Okay, then be careful."

Xiao Ma is the guard with a childish face. Although he is young, he is very diligent in his work.

"Pony, let's look for it separately. It'll be faster. It'll be dark soon."

In order to get the fresh water out of the space more easily, Meng Xiaoman pushed him away.

The water stored in the Qinghe Brigade due to drought was unexpectedly used here.

Meng Xiaoman found a pit, spread some leaves on the bottom of the pit, and then put the water into the pit. He poured half a puddle of water into the pit, then filled the bucket he brought before calling Pony over.

"Comrade Meng, you are so lucky to have found the water source so quickly." Xiao Ma scooped up water with excitement on his face, "It's a pity that there is not much water."

Meng Xiaoman didn't put in too much water at first, "It's enough for us to drink today. This puddle can't hold much water."

"Yes, but the water here is quite clear."

"Well, it's probably because there are fallen leaves at the bottom of the pit, which separates the soil, so the water doesn't seep down and is clean." Not wanting Xiao Ma to ask again, Meng Xiaoman knelt down to help him scoop the water.

"Exactly two barrels, let's go quickly."

When we came back, everyone had washed the ingredients. In addition to seafood, the people who went to collect firewood from the mountains also shot two rabbits.

Dinner is grilled oysters, grilled hare, grilled sea fish, and razor clam, octopus and wild vegetable soup. Although the method is simple and crude, fortunately the ingredients are fresh and taste good, and everyone is full.

When they were hungry, no one had the energy to worry. Now that they are full, they are worried, "What if no one comes to save us tomorrow?"

Captain Chen burped and said to the worried female soldier: "Don't worry, God is blessing us by letting us end up on this desert island. As the saying goes, if you survive a catastrophe, you will be blessed later. If God wants us Fate has already allowed us to feed the fish in the sea.”

"That's right." Streime said, "We have to believe in the ability of the troops. They will definitely be able to find us."

After eating, some people stayed on the beach to guard the boat, while others went to the cave to rest.

The captain wrapped a torch in tung cloth and led the people in front. Meng Xiaoman and Xiao Ma walked at the end to prevent anyone from falling behind.

"Everyone, please follow closely. Girls hold hands. Don't wander around and look around. Watch your step."

The space in the cave is limited, so people can only sit close together. For safety, the girls sit inside and the boys sit outside. A bonfire is lit outside the cave entrance, which makes the cold cave less freezing.

The stones in the cave were cold and hard, so Meng Xiaoman put the cloth bag she brought under her buttocks to feel better. It rained again at night, extinguishing the bonfire at the entrance of the cave. From time to time, the howls of wild beasts could be heard in the forest. No one could sleep much. In the early morning, there were sneezes and yawns one after another.

Everyone was about to go down the mountain to the beach when Wang Jingjing suddenly ran over crying and called people, saying that Xia Mengjiao had been bitten by a snake and asked them to go and have a look.

Xia Mengjiao was wearing a skirt with half of her calf exposed. When she went to relieve herself in the morning, she was accidentally bitten by a snake. Wang Jingjing didn't know what to do, so she quickly came over and called someone.

When Meng Xiaoman arrived, Xia Mengjiao turned pale with fright and kept wiping tears.

"Let me see which leg was bitten." Meng Xiaoman walked up to her and asked.

Xia Mengjiao carefully stretched out her right leg, "Can you help me treat it? I don't want to die or have my leg amputated. I still want to dance..."

Seeing that she was getting more and more emotional as she talked, Meng Xiaoman motioned to Wang Jingjing and Stri Mei to hold her down and squat down to check her wounds.

"I'm not sure either. Let me see the wound first."

There were two blood holes on Xia Mengjiao's calf. Although there was some bleeding, the blood was not black and the wound was not bruised. It seemed that the snake that bit her was not poisonous.

"She shouldn't be poisoned, but just in case, you'd better move less, talk less, and reduce blood flow." Meng Xiaoman squeezed out the dirty blood for her, then went to the forest to find some anti-inflammatory and hemostatic herbs, and smashed Break it into pieces, put it on her wound, and bandage it with a handkerchief.

"Really? You didn't lie to me, did you?" Xia Mengjiao asked worriedly.

"Do you get any money by lying to me?" Meng Xiaoman asked.

"Ah, no, not really." Xia Mengjiao didn't quite understand.

"That's it."
