Stranded on a Deserted Island, What to Do?

Chapter 17 Enthusiastic Miss!

Hua Mu has been popularized by friends about the benefits of Miswak, because the milky secretion itself has the effect of sterilization and refreshing breath, and even toothpaste can be saved.It's just that for her, because she doesn't pursue the so-called pure natural state of life, there is no need to deliberately abandon the convenience brought by industrial civilization, and she has never tried it so far.

Recalling these things, Hua Mu couldn't help feeling resentful.

Why did this happen to someone like her who couldn't live without modern technology?Shouldn't those aristocratic ladies who are full and have nothing to do every day want to return to their original nature to live on this island for a few months?

Finding alternatives to toothbrush and toothpaste is always a good thing, so Hua Mu asked Baizhen to cut a dozen of them and put them in his pocket on the spot.The two ate the few lotus mist they just picked, and temporarily cushioned their stomachs.

The two of them are going to settle their lunch here, and of course they have to light another fire.Bai Zhen collected some dead branches and dry grass nearby, and Hua Mu squatted aside to watch her use the flint and steel.

Although this is not the first time I have watched it, Hua Mu still feels pleasantly surprised every time she sees sparks lit by the white pillow and ignites the hay.

The sparkler is only ten centimeters long, and it is painted black. Every time you use it, you have to scrape off a layer of oxide on the surface.

Hua Mu still doesn't understand why Bai Zhen carries such a thing. Although it is really useful now, it is not as convenient as carrying a lighter or even matches in normal times, right?

Bai Zhen lowered his head and blew the sparks on the dry grass, with a look of concentration, he didn't even notice that his face was stained with grass ash.

The sentinel had been exposed to the wind and sun for more than ten days, and his skin, which was not too dark, had completely turned into a wheat color.Probably because of the lack of food, people look leaner.But her dark pupils were sharper than usual, and she looked like she was on alert at any time.

No matter how much Hua Mu didn't wait to see the sentinel, it was inevitable to rely on her from the bottom of her heart at this time.

To be honest, kind of handsome.

It's not about Bai Zhen's appearance, but the reliability shown in all aspects makes Hua Mu feel a little handsome.

But once such a thought popped up in his mind, Hua Mu would immediately become alert again.

This must be the so-called suspension bridge effect, she has experienced it several times!Going through danger, being rescued with one's life, and being dependent on each other, no matter which one is used alone, it is enough to make people's adrenaline surge.

So I feel that my heart is beating faster, I feel that the white pillow is more pleasing to the eye, and I feel that the sentinel is cute, these are all illusions!

Hua Mu looked away from Baizhen's beautiful arm muscles.

Since it was the suspension bridge effect, she must not be the only one who felt this way. What if the big, stupid Baizhen misunderstood something and had bad thoughts, what would she do?

The fire was quickly lit.

"Miss, I'm going to the beach to have a look, you wait here for a while."

The field of vision here is wide, and there is no danger in the vicinity for the time being. Bai Zhen intentionally caused a fire, which can be regarded as an added guarantee for Hua Mu's safety.

"Um……"

Because of the wild thoughts just now, Hua Mu tried her best to appear indifferent, but she felt a little uneasy in her heart.Looking at the back of the sentinel gradually going away, the thoughts in his mind gradually became chaotic.

She remembered that Bai Zhen was already 24 years old. If a sentinel at this age did not have an exclusive guide, the biggest possibility was that the matching rate was not enough.Although there are now inner towers and outer towers, there are still many rules in common in the circle of sentries and guides.

Whether it is a sentinel or a guide, they almost start looking for a suitable partner immediately after adulthood, and her father's anxiety is actually related to tradition.

Sentinels are much more volatile than Guides, so are often more eager to find a mate.Most sentinels from poor families choose to serve in the army in the inner tower. The main reason is that the tower will not only provide free fluffy videos and comfort services from public guides, but also provide matchmaking services for sentinels in need.

Has Bai Zhen ever been on a blind date?

It wasn't the first time Hua Mu had thought about this question. She would think about it every time Bai Zhen went back to the pagoda to report on her duties.

The first choice of a female sentry is naturally a male guide, but if you don't stick to gender and only consider it from the perspective of the sentinel, there is nothing wrong with a female guide.Considering that male guides are more scarce than female sentinels, perhaps Baizhen has met quite a few female guides!

The Sentinels in the Inner Tower have been on blind dates since they were 24 years old, and they haven’t found a partner yet. The circle of sentries in their home country is so big. There are very few precedents for the soldiers in the Inner Tower to combine with foreigners. In a situation like Baizhen, it is basically not Note that orphans can only be matched by young and old.

Hua Mu once again felt a strong sense of crisis about her situation.

It's fine if they don't match, but her physique...is too dangerous!

Baizhen did not go into the sea this time. There is a fringe reef on the south side of the beach, and part of the area is exposed after low tide.Bai Zhen just wandered around a few times, and picked up a lot of food in the puddles.

In addition to a few perciformes, she also picked up a lot of oysters and a few sea urchins, which can be described as a full reward.

The resources here are indeed much richer than the coast where the two landed. There are large groups of marine life in the large coral reefs.If you move here, at least it will be much easier to get food.But Bai Zhen could see that Hua Mu didn't have such an idea, so he had to put this idea in his heart for the time being.

She handled a few fish at the beach, then put on her pants and shoes and returned to Hua Mu's resting place.The other party seemed to be thinking about something, and didn't notice that she had returned.

"Miss?"

In Bai Zhen's eyes, Hua Mu's state in the past two days is indeed not good. If not for many good things happened today, she would probably have started to worry about whether Hua Mu would be depressed.

"Ah? What, what?"

Hua Mu looked a little flustered, her eyes wandering, not daring to look at the white pillow.

Bai Zhen remembers that Hua Mu loves sea urchins very much, so he hastily presented delicious food, hoping to soothe her recently tortured soul a little bit.

"Miss, I caught a few sea urchins, do you want to make sashimi or cook them?"

Sea urchins are delicious even when they are opened, and Bai Zhen really doesn't want his poor cooking skills to ruin them.

"Then, let's sashimi."

Hua Mu seemed to think so too.

Bai Zhen put the fish and oysters on the banana leaves first, and opened sea urchins for Hua Mu.

April and May are the most delicious time for horse dung gall. The orange-red reproductive glands are as soft as butter and melt in the mouth. Even without any seasoning, it is enough to make people intoxicated by its plump taste.

Hua Mu ate one and then the second.

This is life!

Hua Mu was so excited that she almost cried.

Sure enough, the most soul-saving thing in the world is food.No matter what kind of difficult situation you are in, as long as you eat well, you will not despair!

Hua Mu held the sea urchin in her mouth, almost reluctant to swallow it, just waiting for it to slowly melt and slip into her throat.

"One more, one more."

Bai Zhen only picked up four in total, because Hua Mu told her yesterday that she didn't look for them on purpose. Seeing her happy face at this moment, she couldn't help but feel a little regretful.

She opened the third sea urchin with a dagger, carefully picked out the radial gonad inside and handed it to Hua Mu.

Before, Hua Mu took it by herself before eating it, but this time, she couldn't wait to sip the sea urchin on Baizhen's fingers.Because the sea urchin yellow was too soft, Bai Zhen got a lot of it on his hands, Hua Mu looked at it as a waste, and wished he could lick it all into his mouth.

The tender and bright red lips of the noble girl gently rubbed against the rough and slender fingers of the sentinel, which was softer to the touch than sea urchin yellow.

Bai Zhen felt his heart go numb, his blood seemed to surge up suddenly, and his face flushed instantly.She was awakened as a sentinel when she was 12 years old, and she entered the tower for 12 years. She performed tasks alone for eight years, and served as Hua Mu's guard for five years. Weakness, weak hands.

She didn't quite understand what was wrong with her, only shame and self-ashamed were so strong.

Hua Mu pursed her lips, showing a satisfied look, "You can eat the rest, um, it's delicious."

Normally, Bai Zhen would have thought of giving it up to Hua Mu, but at this moment, because of her confused thoughts, she didn't have the time to give it up.

As the guard of the royal family, Bai Zhen's treatment is naturally not bad.In addition, he often attends banquets with Hua Mu, and eats as much delicacies as the other party.It's just that she doesn't know how to enjoy herself, especially when it comes to food, she doesn't pay much attention to it. Most of the time she just eats it, and she has never had any special feelings.

But today's sea urchin really gave her an unprecedented taste enjoyment.

The dense taste, the sweet taste, and...

Bai Zhen couldn't help but licked his fingers, and subconsciously glanced at Hua Mu's pink lips.

No wonder the eldest lady is so unsatisfied, it turns out that it is really delicious.

The sentinel made up his mind to pick up a few sea urchins for Hua Mu every day.

Once she tasted the delicacy, Hua Mu couldn't stand these rough cooking methods anymore.Seeing that the oysters and fish hadn't been fully processed, she remembered the time when she wanted to find spices.

"Baizhen, put some wild mint in the belly of the fish," she thought for a while, and then took out a fruit that looked like a lime from her pocket, "wrap it in banana leaves and bake it, and sprinkle some lemon juice when it's ripe." .”

The two found this around the coconut grove. There are about seven or eight trees with luxuriant fruits.It looks like a reduced version of lime, only the size of a kumquat, and exudes the unique fragrance of Rutaceae plants.Bai Zhen tasted a little, and the taste was extremely sour, so the two of them only picked a few.

Hua Mu originally thought of soaking it in water to drink, but now he remembered that lemon juice also has the effect of removing fishy smell.

Although there is still a long way to go from her expected cooking, things cannot be accomplished overnight.The two of them had other things to do in the afternoon, so they could only endure it for the time being at noon.

What's more, she had already tasted the delicacy in advance.

Bai Zhen complied one by one, and the two finally tasted the first real cooked food during the No.13 days when they were stranded on the island.

There may be many biological differences between humans and animals, but Hua Mu believes that the ability to make natural ingredients delicious is what makes humans greater than animals.

The author has something to say: Hua Mu: I said she coveted me!

It’s okay to fantasize about Sentinel’s delusions about himself every day. Do you know the Pygmalion effect?

The only reason humans are greater than animals is human arrogance.
