Qin Ning's struggle

In the next two days, Qin Ning continued to be busy at the beach, but his efficiency was really mediocre.

After being exposed to the sun and even encountering several heavy rains, it is difficult to preserve the crab legs and claws intact.The system does not accept spoiled crab meat. If the crab meat is removed, the value will be greatly reduced if calculated in units of crab shells.

Thinking of the crab shell that disappeared into the white light with him, compared with the present, Qin Ning could only sigh.

Reasonable?

Before the overlord clause, there was no reason at all.

The crab legs are piled up into hills, and a third of them are worthless.

Seeing that it was half smashed, there were still crab claws the size of a bathtub, Qin Ning had a flash of inspiration, picked off the remaining crab meat, rinsed it clean, it was a ready-made water storage device!

The crab meat has spoiled and the taste is very pungent.After peeling off a piece of crab shell, Qin Ning almost fainted from the smoke.Helpless, he had no choice but to cover his mouth and nose with a cloth strip, grab the crab meat with his bare hands, tear off the crab shell, and throw it into the sea.

It is obviously more appropriate to throw it into the water than to stay on the beach.

Crab meat has deteriorated, but it is quite attractive to some sea fish.

Soon, waterlines slipped near Qin Ning.Schools of offshore fish are attracted by the crab meat and flock to this beach collectively.

There are more monks than meat, and the competition is fierce.Fusiform, barrel-shaped and triangular fish bodies sometimes jump out of the water and collide with each other.After a few minutes, the sea water seemed to be boiling.

Daring schools of fish ventured close to the sand, cruising in the shallow waters.

Qin Ning could clearly feel that the cold scales brushed against the instep, and her calf was hit several times.

Facing this situation, Qin Ning didn't feel scared, but excited.

Continue to dig into the crabmeat while slowly backing away from the surface.

The temptation of crab meat was too great. A big fish with a body length of more than two meters and a back covered with dark blue scales bit the crab meat hard, refusing to let go.

"Have it!"

Qin Ning's eyes lit up, he held up the sharp crab shell, and threw it hard.

In order to devour crab meat, the back part of the big fish is exposed to the water.

Qin Ning's aim was good, the crab shell flew over, and it happened to be near the head of the fish, one-third of the fish's body.

When attacked, the big fish flicked its tail and was about to swim back into the water.However, he still clenched the crab meat tightly and refused to let go.

In this way, it will naturally slow down.

People die for wealth, birds die for food, and this fish is also applicable.

Qin Ning grabbed another piece of crab shell and quickly walked into the water.

At noon, the sea surface temperature rises, unlike the cold night.

Seeing that the big fish was about to escape, Qin Ning felt a little anxious, so he jumped into the water.The action is very chic, but it is a pity that he miscalculated the depth of the sea and crashed into the sand.

The water surface became turbid, and the big fish waggled its tail and jumped, as if mocking Qin Ning for being overconfident.

Qin Ning struggled out of the sand and wanted to try harder.However, the opportunity was lost, and the big fish had already fled away.

Soon, the crab meat was eaten, the fish disappeared, and the water returned to calm.

Wiping the seawater off her face, Qin Ning was very disappointed.An unsuccessful hunt, wasting energy in vain, is really not worth the candle.

Just about to go ashore, several white water lines suddenly appeared.

Seeing the triangular dorsal fin, Qin Ning's heart skipped a beat, and he turned around and ran quickly.

The comers did not launch an attack, but spread out in all directions, setting off water waves, forming a circular water net, and catching fish under the water.Several half-meter-long sardines jumped out of the water in a panic, and fell right at Qin Ning's feet.

Qin Ning blinked, and then blinked again.

Action faster than thinking, hold the fish body immediately.

Is this a different kind of joy from heaven?

On that day, Qin Ning's lunch and dinner were grilled fish.

The fish meat is firm and elastic, and the taste is quite good even without seasoning.

Qin Ning ate two half-meter-long grilled fish in one sitting.The last one, Qin Ning was not willing to bake it, and did not include it in the system. Instead, he split it from the middle, cut it into several pieces, and hung it on the rock wall to dry.

Shellfish and snail shells can replenish biological energy, guarding the sea, and there will always be harvest.

Not so with fish.

Hand over this, and God knows if there will be a next time.

It's just that these few fish were not obtained from hunting, and luck accounted for most of them.If you want to get enough food and survive on an isolated island, you still have to rely on yourself.

After washing the fish bones, Qin Ning looked at the sea surface and suddenly felt emotional.

Life is not easy.

But this kind of difficulty made him extremely at ease.

In the evening, the drizzle fell, and the sea breeze rolled over the rocks, making strange noises.

Qin Ning tore off his jacket, wrapped it around branches to make a simple torch, and planned to go to the beach to try his luck.Some sea crabs will come ashore at night, and you may encounter them.

It's a pity that the preparation was insufficient and the necessary fuel was lacking, so the torch was quickly extinguished when it encountered water.

Tried several times, all ended in failure.

Qin Ning could only give up the plan and retreat to the rock.

After waiting for a long time, there was no sign of the rain stopping, so I simply removed the fire, covered it with two braided banana leaves, and fell asleep with the sea breeze.

The rain pattered and continued all night.

At dawn, the dark clouds dispersed.

Qin Ning stepped out of the rock, rubbed his eyes, and yawned.With the help of the hazy sunlight, I saw that the sea water receded a lot, and there were creatures under the sand, which were not small in size.

After patting his cheek hard, Qin Ning made sure it was not an illusion. He immediately grabbed the newly made spear and strode over.

When the distance was less than ten meters, Qin Ning slowed down.

Under the sun, dozens of red tubes with a length of one meter and a thickness of half a meter, with distinctive shapes, protruded from the sand one after another, standing abruptly on the beach.

Loosely arranged, like a pile of stones driven into the sand.

After observing for a long time, Qin Ning determined that the attack power of this creature should not be strong.

That being the case, why be polite.

Choose a target, approach it slowly, raise your spear and poke.

There was a bang, as if it had hit rubber.

The spear tied with the fishbone was bent, and the sea clam was frightened. The red pipe spewed out a stream of water, contracted suddenly, and disappeared into the sand in less than five seconds.

A chain effect was produced, and the sandy beach lined with red pipes immediately heard rustling sounds.

The sea mussels disappeared one by one, and only a few bunkers remained, which were quickly filled.

I didn't eat the meat, but it made me feel fishy.

Wiping off the water stains on her face, Qin Ning was very depressed.Unwilling to be reconciled, he aimed at a bunker and excavated it.

He didn't believe that his luck would be so bad!

The spear was broken, and the shells and crab shells were all on top.

I don't know whether it should be said that God finally opened his eyes and was merciful, or that a blind cat met a dead mouse and he really dug one.

Mussels like mud and sand, this beach is not only fine sand but also reefs, which is not suitable for mussels to grow at all.It is also a "miracle" to dig sea clams here.

Willful alien creatures?

Holding the dug out sea clam, Qin Ning put aside distracting thoughts and smiled.

Never mind, as long as you can fill your stomach.

Cooking sea mussels takes a lot of time without tools at hand.Slicing is laborious, so simply chop it in half and put it on the fire for grilling.

Soon, wrinkles appeared on the outer layer of the meat, and the whole piece of "rubber skin" was revealed when it was gently peeled off.Underneath is the yellowish clam meat, which doesn't look like seafood, but more like some kind of fruit.

Unable to resist the temptation of the scent, Qin Ning ignored the hot hands, dug a piece out of a shell, blew it cool, and put it in his mouth.

The clam meat is delicious, not lacking in chewiness, even surpassing crab meat.

The gluttonous taste almost makes people swallow their tongues.

Qin Ning discarded the shells, picked up a piece of mussel meat with both hands, and gnawed it directly.

It's obviously a seafood product, but the heroism of watermelon is hard to be eaten.

Two rounds of the sun hung in the air, the golden light pierced through the clouds, and the shadows of fish schools appeared on the sea again.

Qin Ning hiccupped the belly of the whole clam in satisfaction, stood up, and stretched his waist against the salty sea breeze, feeling much more energetic.

Clam shell income system, worth three crab legs.

Qin Ning was slightly surprised, and tried to search for the answer. A lot of strange symbols flooded into his mind, and he really couldn't understand it.

Knocking on the black bracelet, Qin Ning pouted.

I really can't communicate happily.

The so-called anthropomorphic intelligent system, which solves problems for the host, is a fairy tale.

Without an answer, Qin Ning didn't intend to make any effort.What should be known will always be known, what should not be known, it is no good to get to the bottom of it.

The problem of eating is temporarily solved.

There are sea mussels and shellfish, which can not only fill the stomach, but also maintain the operation of the system. The accumulation of small amounts makes a lot, and it is only a matter of time before the opening of space-time transactions.

The need now is to store fresh water, the more the better.

After wearing it, it rains almost every day, and there seems to be no shortage of water.However, it is not advisable to embrace luck, and be diligent and always be prepared.

After picking out the crab shells that were still in good condition, Qin Ning climbed up the reef and began to look for the water-logged caves.

Looking around and choosing a place, Qin Ning erected the crab shell, inserted it into a crack in the stone, and pried off a few broken stones at the edge.

When digging sea clams, he found that his strength has increased a lot, and it feels more obvious now.

With a creaking sound, the stone rolled down.

The clear rainwater flows over the reef, like a gurgling brook, to the raised section, leading to several small waterfalls.

After blocking the water outlet, Qin Ning jumped down from the reef, and seized the time to dig three water storage pits, spread shells and crab shells, and fill the gaps with gravel.

This does not solve the problem fundamentally, but it can slow down the evaporation rate.Otherwise, it only takes half a day for the rainwater on the reef to evaporate completely.

Qin Ning thought very clearly, after going through the most difficult few days, he would always be able to get needed supplies in exchange for time and space transactions.If it really doesn't work, if you change a few weapons that are handy, you will have the confidence to go deep into the island forest.

If the trees are verdant, there must be a source of water.

After filling eleven water storage pits, Qin Ning didn't take a rest. He slapped the fine sand off his palms, covered the crab shells with broad leaves, and continued to work on the beach to replenish energy for the trader.

During the period, I picked up fifteen shells, one conch, and starfish... Should I say starfish?

With the length and width of this person, it is really impossible to confirm.

The entire beach was cleaned, and the seafood picked up was thrown into the trader.

It is probably the first time for the system to meet such a generous host, and a little carelessly, it also took in the starfish, which was originally a "trash", and counted it as the price of crab legs.

The white light disappears, the system prompts, add three crab legs or eight shells, and the transaction can be opened.

Qin Ning grinned involuntarily, wishing he could face the sea and laugh three times.

"I finally succeeded!"

After a short rest and drinking water, Qin Ning continued to work.

I searched back and forth twice, but I didn't find half a crab leg or a shell.Starfish did find two, but the system didn't want them.

Qin Ning was puzzled, didn't he accept it before?

The system whipped out a string of random characters, if you don't want it, don't, keep pestering, believe it or not, throw out the previous one too!

The arm couldn't twist the thigh, so Qin Ning had no choice but to accept it.

Rubbing your chin, starfish won't work, but barnacles and the like should work?

Sure enough, a white light flashed, and the barnacles on the reef disappeared one by one.About two hours later, the light screen appeared in midair, several times clearer than before.

Become!

Hammering his sore shoulders, Qin Ning let out a sigh of relief, unable to hide his excitement.

The light screen is still divided into six grids, and the crab legs and shellfish have long since disappeared, only more than ten barnacles remain in the upper right corner.

Without any warning, the pattern of the black bracelet suddenly flowed, and the two spaces in the middle of the screen lit up. An alien with dark blue skin, two tentacles on the top of his head, big eyes without a nose, and a grinning mouth reaching to the ears appeared in front of Qin Ning.

What kind of creature is this?

Qin Ning raised his eyebrows, curiosity flashed across his eyes.

The alien shook its tentacles to determine the coordinates of the galaxy where Qin Ning was located, and said, "Hello, distinguished birdman."

Qin Ning's face darkened.

Did he hear it wrong, or did the system translate it wrong?

"Nice to meet you, honorable birdman. I'm Link, from..."

Before the other party could finish speaking, Qin Ning couldn't bear it any longer and closed the trading interface with a snap.

XXX!

You are a birdman, your whole family is a birdman!
