One Hundred Days on an Uninhabited Island
Chapter 20 The Island Day 2 Banana Tree
"Yanan..."
"Hello~~~~"
It's like a heart-to-heart connection, just as the words of the heart-to-heart friendship came, the response from that person sounded in the distance, neither far nor near, just standing where the sight touched.
Yao Yanan and Wang Zhenzhen came back. They seemed to be in no danger, and their joy followed the wind's footsteps.
It seems that there is a surprise coming.
"Yanan!"
Joy echoed softly in my ears, before the lingering murmur could reach my ears, the figure rushed to the distance with eagerness.
Wen Siqi breathed a sigh of relief, and walked forward slowly.
People safe is good.
"It made you worry, but it's all right now. Didn't I come back safely?"
"Look, I also brought this, it's a banana~"
Mu Jie ignored the large bunch of bananas being held up high, her gaze was always on Yao Yanan's body, her hands on the lapel seemed to want to open the clothes openly, if it wasn't for Yao Yanan's other hand to cover tightly Clothes, no doubt, the clothes have been ripped off by Mu Jie.
Wang Zhenzhen spat enviously and disdainfully, and walked towards the camp with a banana in one hand and a long stick in the other, and walked past Wen Siqi who was walking without looking at her.
Wen Siqi didn't care, and walked towards Yao Yanan.
Seeing the banana mentioned by Yao Yanan, she thought of what she had seen before, a way to get water, and now she needed to determine the distance.
It's getting dark, and some poisonous snakes, insects and ants that like to move at night are about to start to be active. It's a time when ghosts and ghosts are rampant, and the jungle can't go deeper.
If it is far away from the shore, you can only try again tomorrow. If it is not far away, you may be able to drink more normal water tonight.
Wen Siqi asked Yao Yanan where to pick bananas and some other questions. Yao Yanan blushed and answered the questions in an extremely embarrassing tone.
"It's not far from the place where we came out yesterday, and it's also close to the coast, but there are not many plants, only three, and there are not many bananas.
We didn't see any danger when we picked it, but now we don't know if there is any... Xiaojie, I'm really fine, I don't need to check anymore..."
Mu Jie didn't listen to her stop, her hands were about to pass over her flat belly with her eyes moving down.
Through the light that has not been completely dimmed, Wen Siqi saw Yao Yanan's shyness avoiding her, and the smile she showed her from time to time seemed to say to her: You go first.
The relationship between the two was obviously not right, Wen Siqi didn't stop, took the banana in Yao Yanan's hand with a smile, and said: "I need to go to the place where the banana tree is later, Yanan, please bring me a banana." way." He took the banana and left, leaving Yao Yanan with a smile that made Yao Yanan blush.
Back at the temporary camp, Wang Zhenzhen had already put the bananas she had picked on the ground.
Compared with the green and thin banana in Yao Yanan's hand, Wang Zhenzhen's banana was obviously premature even though it was also thin, and many roots at the top had turned yellow. Obviously, they were not bananas on a banana tree.
Wen Siqi put down the banana, turned around, picked up two drink bottles and put them in the iron bucket, and took the stone knife that the old man put aside.
The stone knife is a diamond-shaped stone, and the sharper end has been sharpened by the old man. Although it is still not sharp, it can still knock a banana tree.
I heard that chopping it is like looking at a cabbage, so it shouldn't be too difficult.
"Where are you going."
Han Tang asked other people's doubts.
"I've watched some survival documentaries in my free time before, which mentioned that the stems of banana trees store water, and their roots will constantly absorb water from the ground and transport it to the stems."
"Yanan said that the place where the banana tree grows is not far from the shore. I want to get some water. If I'm lucky, we won't have to drink coconut water tonight."
Wen Siqi turned her head: "However, we can't completely pin our hopes on the banana tree. Brother Lin, grandpa, and grandma, please open a few coconuts to get the water out."
"Yunyun, stay here obediently and wait for mom to come back."
After that, she carried the bucket and left.
"It's this tone again, it's really annoying!"
Whispering was not overwhelmed by the waves, Jiang Xinran quite agreed to look away.
It is indeed a bit annoying, neither alienated nor close, the appropriate distance makes people want to get closer, but also feels repelled.
That's why people can't completely hate her, and can't wantonly vent their dissatisfaction with her. It's also because it makes people trust and want to get closer.
Was she like this before?So I don't even have a true friend... no, there is Mu Qiushui... that's not right, it's not her, it's not Mu Qiushui, it's...
who is coming?
Confused memory can't recall the appearance of that person, Jiang Xinran only remembers that when she met Wen Siqi face to face for the first time, there was a person beside her, that person cared about Wen Siqi very much.
However, no impression.
who is it?
"Xinxin?"
The worries in her ears stopped her memories, Jiang Xinran rubbed her temple acupuncture points with some headaches, and smiled back.
"I'm fine, I'm just a little tired. Sis, let's help too."
Jiang Xinran got up on the ground, went to Lin Jianfei to get a coconut, Ye Yajie reluctantly followed.
Wang Zhenzhen glanced at her, snorted softly with disdain, and hugged himself with the only high heel left, not knowing where his thoughts were going.
……
After leaving the camp, Wen Siqi returned to Yao Yanan's side.
Mu Jie seemed to have finished the inspection. At this moment, she was calmly standing beside Yao Yanan, like a girl with no emotions, only her right hand tightly clasped the other person's palm.
"Siqi."
"Let's go."
His gaze fell on Yao Yanan's clothes involuntarily. They were neatly dressed, and it was impossible to tell whether he had suffered a tragic attack before. Only a few uneven wrinkles told Wen Siqi that something had happened.
Soon, his eyes turned away again, so fast that Yao Yanan had no time to feel shy, and he had already walked to the front.
Yao Yanan hurriedly pulled Mu Jie to follow quickly.
The place where the banana tree grows is not far from where they came out of the jungle yesterday. After walking about twenty steps to the west, Yao Yanan pointed to the place covered by the leaves, "That's it."
The plants are a bit dense, similar colors will confuse the vision, but if you look carefully, you can see the familiarity you want to see from the layers of shade.
It's banana leaves. The wide leaves are not conspicuous here, but they are not hidden. You can vaguely see a few inconspicuous bright yellows from the dense green.
Sweeping the ground with a not-too-long wooden stick, the two came under the banana tree led by Yao Yanan.
Under the wide plantain leaves, one can clearly see clumps of unripe bananas, which are about the same size as the picked bananas, and some are not even as long as the middle finger. The red flower buds are facing downwards with their mouths slightly open.
It's a bit high, about three meters, a distance they can't reach even if they jump up.
"Unfortunately, the three trees we encountered were not short. Ms. Wang and I spent a lot of time to get them down."
That's why I came back so late.
Wen Siqi could imagine that the pictures taken at that time must be very lively.
However, it doesn't need to be so troublesome now.
His gaze fell to the bottom of the tree.
Wen Siqi put down the iron pail, grasped the stone knife and touched the tree.
A banana tree is not a tree. Wen Siqi doesn't remember where she read the miscellaneous knowledge, and she can't remember the specific content, but I can be sure that it is easier to see it than to cut it down.
The touch conveyed from the palm of the hand is also telling Wen Siqi that this is not one of the illusions of life, but a certainty:
I can!
The stone knife plunged into the banana tree, unlike the fierce resistance when it was pierced into the wood, it was a money spent, you love me, but it needs to add fun to the next entertainment, a half-push, half-hearted seduction .If what falls is a machete, it feels more real.
Wen Siqi didn't think too much, and continued to knock along the small opening.
The rift opened little by little to the left and right, and spread to the middle. Yao Yanan and Mu Jie had a discussion, went around the two sides of the tree respectively, stretched out their hands to hug the trunk of the tree stem, and pulled the tree stem to the other side of the rift with their strength. pressure.
Click, click, click—
The trunk of the tree was broken little by little with the sound, gradually revealing the core of the stem, and water traces fell like broken pearls from the cracked opening.
Can't be wasted!
"It's going to be broken!"
Feeling the feeling that this body, which is about to lose strength, can be broken without gritting its teeth, Yao Yanan was overjoyed, and the strength of his arms suddenly increased.
With a bang, the banana tree cut across.
Wen Siqi quickly lifted the broken part, "Xiao Jie, bring the iron bucket."
"Ah."
Mu Jie brought the iron bucket, and put it under the disconnected part under Wen Siqi's signal.
"Yanan, raise your side higher."
Raising one end high and lowering the other end, the water stored in the core of the tree dripped into the iron bucket along the slope, the crisp sound was extremely sweet and short.
"No more? It's too little."
Not enough for two bites.
Yao Yanan measured the water in the iron bucket and sighed in disappointment.
With just such a little water, there are not enough mouths to cut down all three trees, and it takes so much effort, it's not worth it!
"No, it's not over yet."
Wen Siqi picked up the stick and inserted it ruthlessly into the core of the tree rooted on the ground, "As long as there is water in its roots, it will continuously send water to the core. We only need to dig out the middle part of it and dig a groove , let the water gather, maybe not much, better than nothing.”
"remaining value."
Mu Jie muttered in a low voice, without any movement, she stood aside and watched Wen Siqi's eyes go up and down in her hand, digging out the fragile inner core of the banana tree bit by bit.
Miserable old.
After a while, the tank for storing water was dug, and through the light that was not shaded by the trees, Yao Yanan saw a little water, not many, and gathering slowly.
"how long?"
"I don't know, it won't come too soon."
It is also the first time to experience these encounters, and Wen Siqi is not sure how long it will take to see the water is full, maybe a few minutes, maybe a few hours.
"What are we doing now? We can't just watch."
"...Let's chop another one."
There was no objection, and the three of them worked together to destroy another banana tree. It took time for the water to gather to a significant level.
Still not much, the water marks disappeared after the bottle cap was scooped a few times, and there was no obvious sign of rising when it was poured into the bucket, just like hope in despair, although it was seen, it was hard to touch.
slim.
but--
Still gotta catch.
"Hello~~~~"
