One Hundred Days on an Uninhabited Island

"Go slowly."

"Um……"

Yao Yanan arched her body, grasped the not-so-thick tree roots extending out of the soil with both hands, and turned her head to look at the road under her feet.

It's not easy to go.

The terrain here is too steep, it's hard to find a place to step down, and I don't know how the island was shaken in the first place.

After probing with her toes for a long time, Yao Yanan managed to find a point where she could step on her feet, and put all her strength on this point.

Gala-

"ah--"

"careful!"

Hearing the sound, Lin Jianfei raised his head hastily, and saw Wen Siqi grabbing the tree with one hand and dragging Yao Yanan with the other. The latter fell on the steep slope, and if he was not careful, he would slide down the slope together.

Can't help thinking, Lin Jianfei climbed up again, the distance between him and the two was only one body, grabbed the trunk and pulled Yao Yanan up together with Wen Siqi.

"thanks……"

Stepping on the protruding tree roots, Yao Yanan sat on the ground panting, her pale face turned slightly.

It was really thrilling just now, and she almost fell off this slope. She was lucky and sprained, but she was unlucky... From a deserted island in the ocean, she might be useless in this life.

The hands patting his chest trembled violently. It seemed that his body hadn't recovered from the fright just now. Yao Yanan leaned against the tree trunk and quietly clenched his fists in front of his abdomen.

"Eat a green fruit to quench your thirst?"

Suddenly there is a blue fruit in front of my eyes, with slightly pointed ends and a round middle, like a small rugby ball, and like a small blue tomato.

"Olives?"

Yao Yanan looked happy, took the olive fruit, subconsciously wanted to hide the fruit in his pocket, then stopped putting it down, hesitated slightly, opened his mouth and took a small bite.

Immediately, the pulp is sandwiched with juice, and the taste is full of happiness.

The fruit was still a little green, with a strong sour taste, which made Yao Yanan wrinkle his handsome face.

"Let's do it again."

Wen Siqi handed another one, and passed two more to Lin Jianfei.

"Where do you get the olives?"

Yao Yanan turned her head and looked to the side, and saw Wen Siqi pointing upwards.

"It's the tree that saved us."

Looking up, Yao Yanan noticed that the height of the tree was not short, and it was lowering its head up and down. No wonder it didn't notice what kind of tree it was. These few fruits should be the movement just now cause to fall.

"Such a steep slope can make it grow?"

"Nature itself is a miracle, and it's no surprise to be born here."

The west slanting sunlight fell through the gaps in the leaves, and the swaying blue fruit could be vaguely seen in the light spots. Wen Siqi looked up at the top of the tree, her shoulders slowly dropped, and after a while, she raised it again.

"Wen... Siqi, do you still have the green fruit?"

Lin Jianfei licked his lips. The green acidity of the olives aroused the body's stronger desire for water. Two olives were not even enough to moisten the throat.

"It's gone, there are only a few I can pick up." Wen Siqi shook her head, then looked up again, "However, we can see if we can get some more."

"Kick it?" Yao Yanan suggested with a smile on his face, "There used to be a cherry tree in the community. Whenever it was ripe, I liked to kick the tree, and the fruit would fall off. I think this tree is not growing well. Thick, it should be easy to kick off."

Hearing this, Wen Siqi sized up the tree trunk for a moment, "Hmm...it might be a good idea."

"Then I'll do it, I have great strength." Lin Jianfei stood up while supporting the tree trunk, walked uphill and stood behind the tree.

boom--

The leaves at the top of the tree rustled a few times, as if a gust of wind had blown without making waves, the fruit did not fall off, and was still hung on the tree honestly.

Lin Jianfei frowned, and took a few steps back, followed by several muffled sounds in the jungle, and the fruit fell down.

"Yes, yes!"

Yao Yanan quickly took out the untied scarf from her pocket and spread it in the palm of her hand, picked up the olives that fell on the ground one by one into the scarf, and picked up a dozen olives at once.

"All good, none bad." Yao Yanan held the olives and presented them excitedly in front of Wen Siqi and the two, "It's a pity that a lot of them were taken away..."

A lot of fruit was kicked down, but the slope here was steep, and most of the fruit rolled down the slope as soon as it fell. Standing under the tree, you can still see a few bright green hidden in the dead branches and leaves.

"It's okay, let's pick it up along the side of the slope."

Wen Siqi supported Lin Jianfei and sat down against the tree, "How do you feel? Is there any pain or discomfort?"

Lin Jianfei twisted his neck and stretched his lower and upper body muscles.

The slope on the upper side was gentler than that on the lower side, but it was not much better, and he also fell a few times during the run-up.

"It's okay, I made buffer preparations, no problem." Lin Jianfei smiled.

As soon as the words fell, Yao Yanan handed over some olives, "Come on, eat some olives slowly."

"Thank you."

"Thank you, I can get so many olives thanks to you." Yao Yanan smiled happily, wrapped the scarf carefully and tied it, "We have been out for a long time, and they will be worried if we don't go back."

Wen Siqi looked at the sky, it was still bright, and she couldn't tell what time it was, but it could be estimated that it was past three o'clock.

"Let's go back..."

A dazzling light suddenly shone on the eyes, like the reflection of the sun shining on the mirror surface, so dazzling that the eyes could not be opened. Wen Siqi had to cover most of the field of vision with her hands to relieve the eyes.

"what happened?"

"It's okay, it was refracted by the light."

Moving her body slightly, Wen Siqi saw that the direction of the light was coming from the upper right of the middle of the jungle. It may be because the sun was not tilted to the point before, so she didn't notice it when she was at a high place just now.

"Refraction? Could it be water?!" Yao Yanan was excited immediately. He leaned on the tree trunk and walked to Wen Siqi's side to look up, and then changed positions, "It's water, I saw it!"

"you sure?"

"Well, my eyesight has never deteriorated, so I can be sure it's water!" Yao Yanan said firmly, and then she frowned again, "But the scope of the water doesn't seem to be very large."

The range is not large, and the amount of water stored may not be much. Wen Siqi hopes that it will be deeper.

"Let's go, but be careful, and don't rush."

"Oh, I see."

"it is good."

The three of them then walked to the water storage place together, and picked up a few olive fruits that came down the slope along the way.Yao Yanan treasured them so much that she couldn't bear to touch one even wrapped in a scarf.

Perhaps because of the sight of the water, the speed of the three of them became much faster when they descended the steep slope.

Going around the big trees, stepping over the vines, and passing through the bushes, the three finally came to the waterhole seen on the hillside.

"Water, water!"

Yao Yanan took the lead and rushed away.After running a few steps, she suddenly stopped again.

"what happened?"

Yao Yanan pointed to the puddle, "It's so dirty."

Looking at it, it is more appropriate to say that it is not a puddle, but a puddle. The largest distance is about one meter wide, and the water quality is slightly yellow. Water has existed for a long time, so Wen Siqi is proud to confirm that this island is not affected by the storm.

Going to the puddle and squatting down, Wen Siqi observed for a while.

The depth of the water is about half a palm, not a lot.Although the water quality is muddy yellow, and the surface is contaminated with a lot of fine dust, but no swimming aquatic organisms or animal feces were found in the water.

Wen Siqi bent down again and sniffed a little closer. She didn't smell any rot or other obvious pungent smells. Then she looked around the puddle again. There were traces of crawling, but there were no footprints of large animals.

Obviously, this puddle of water has existed for a long time, and animals have drank here.

"How is it? Can I drink it?" Yao Yanan asked earnestly while clutching the empty bottle.

Lin Jianfei also came over, and the two just held the bottle and waited for Wen Siqi's answer.

"No pollutants were found, and there is no pungent taste. If it is filtered and boiled, I think it should be drinkable."

"That's okay?!"

Yao Yanan looked happy, and quickly unscrewed the cap of the bottle and pressed it into the water.

Lin Jianfei was also unambiguous, and squatted down to fetch the water.

After a while, all the bottles brought were filled up, and the water level dropped a lot with the naked eye.

"Can I drink it today?"

"If you can start a fire, you can have a drink today."

"Fire..."

Yao Yanan couldn't help but frown. Without the tools to start a fire, can they start a fire?

Snapped--

"Stop turning, it's useless at all!"

The wooden stick was rudely still on the wooden board, and Wang Zhenzhen opened his hands and blew cold air into his palms.

The sun had already set behind the island, which made the seaside wind a bit chilly, but Wang Zhenzhen felt that his whole body was sticky and sticky, his palms were even hotter, and there were still a few small blisters like bubbles about to explode in a pot.

"The blister is not broken. Try to be careful not to rub it these two days. It will disappear after three or four days."

The old lady took a look, leaned over and blew a few breaths into Wang Zhenzhen's palms.

Wang Zhenzhen turned his head away, put his palms together and did not reject the old lady's kindness.

Mu Jie glanced at the two of them, then turned to the old man, "Grandpa, let me try."

"It's good for me to come. You young people are tender and easy to get hurt. It's better for me to come here as an old man."

The old man smiled and waved his hands, took the firewood and pressed it under his feet, then rubbed his rough hands back and forth on the branches.

The board was found in the garbage dump by the sea, and the thorny thorns had been worn away from the branches that were drilled into the fire. The old man rubbed it quite smoothly and quickly, but the strength was a bit weak. The board has never smoked, not even sawdust See how much.

"Grandpa, let me do it."

"I'll come, I'll come, don't worry, the sparks will be drilled right away... right away..."

The old man rejected Mu Jie's kindness, and his hands rubbing the branches became much faster, and the sawdust also gradually increased in his stubbornness, but there was no trace of smoke.

"Grandpa, don't be brave. You can make fire by drilling wood with your hands. The old method that can be thrown 800 years ago will not work at all."

Ye Yajie came over, holding a bow in her hand, and she specially circled the bow in front of Wang Zhenzhen, "The difference between a high-educated and a low-educated person is that when encountering problems, a low-educated person will always be incompetent and furious. Education is different, and they have unlimited knowledge to apply."

"Grandpa, give me the plank under your feet, and see how we can drill the fire out for you."

She took the wooden plank under the old man's feet, and smiled triumphantly beside Wang Zhenzhen, before returning to Jiang Xinran with the wooden plank.

Although she knew that Ye Yajie was targeting Wang Zhenzhen and not them, her tone and actions were all annoying, and even Jiang Xinran frowned at her words.

"sister……"

"Xinxin, we have the planks, let's start."

Ye Yajie didn't look at Jiang Xinran, and without raising her head, she stepped on the wooden plank she brought under her feet, took a nearby branch and wrapped it with a bow rope, and took a shell to top the branch.

Slowly pull the bow, and the bow string will drive the branches to start spinning. This is much more convenient than rubbing hands, but it is not easy to control, and there is a soft snap, and the branches slip.

This happened three times in a row, and the ridicule behind him came as promised:

"Hahahaha—I laughed to death. Some people are just arrogant. They think that reading two more books will make them superior to others. They don't see if they can last. They don't know how to use the knowledge and What's the difference when swill enters the pig's belly...

No, anyway, swill can still feed pigs, and the knowledge rotted in their brains is just farts in their pants—waste! "

Snapped--

"sister!"

Jiang Xinran quickly grabbed Ye Yajie with sharp eyesight, and seeing the agitated anger on her good sister's face, she let go of her hand.

"As a human being, you should have self-knowledge, don't hold your father..."

"Miss Wang Zhenzhen, please stop being aggressive if you have something to say. I will correct my sister if she is wrong. Don't worry about it."

The wind that had been shouting suddenly stopped, and the moment Jiang Xinran spoke was silent, even the waves of the sea calmed down.

Wang Zhenzhen squirmed his mouth, turned away his head and stuck his chin and began to think about it.

She didn't speak loudly, but at this time the wind picked up again, no one could hear what she was talking about, as long as her mouth didn't stop.

The old lady didn't understand what local dialect she was speaking, so she didn't know how to persuade her, so she folded her hands in front of her belly and sat beside her with an awkward smile.

Ye Yajie glanced at Wang Zhenzhen, then squatted down and continued to burn.

Like the previous few times, she failed, and the last time she broke the branch directly.

"This branch is too thin, I'll get a thicker one."

Jiang Xinran patted her buttocks and stood up, Ye Yajie's expression made her not know how to comfort her, so she just made an excuse.

Ye Yajie didn't speak, she still held the bow tightly.

Sighing lightly, Jiang Xinran turned around and started walking.

"Grandpa, can you lend us this branch?"

"Of course, of course, you just take it yourself."

The old man handed over the cut branches without hesitation.

Jiang Xinran thanked her, and returned to Ye Yajie with the branch, "Sister, let me pull it."

"I'll do it myself." Ye Yajie looked up at Jiang Xinran, "I can do it."

"..."

Jiang Xinran remained silent, and handed the branch to Ye Yajie.

Seeing the other party's stubborn silence, Jiang Xinran glanced at Wang Zhenzhen who was talking to herself, and let out a helpless expression in her heart.

The sun was getting lower and lower, and the temperature on the shore where the sea breeze lingered was getting colder. Wen Suiyun curled himself up under the tree with a whistle in his mouth.

The repeated failures made Ye Yajie's complexion even more ugly. It's hard to stop a child from crying at night, but it's easy for a child to be afraid of her.

Han Tang held her in his arms, and his eyes looking to the side became more and more dull, with a hint of impatience mixed with anxiety.
