Making a raft is not an easy task, let alone a raft for crossing the sea. Speaking of which, a boat is the most suitable weapon.

Even a small canoe is more suitable than a raft, but it's just a matter of thinking, no one present can do this kind of delicate work.

The size of the raft should be adjusted according to the length of the trip. Shi Lei and Guo Jingyi first collected vines. In the forest to the north of the small island, there are vines that are more suitable for making ropes than the bark before.

"Jingyi, let's collect vines first, and when we go back at noon, ask Xi Chupeng and the others how long is the distance between these two small islands."

Guo Jingyi swiftly cut off the root of the vine with a saber, she paused when she heard Shi Lei's words, "Okay."

Before, Guo Jingyi tried to cut vines with a bone knife, but the vines Shi Lei chose were thick as fingers, very strong, even with a saber, it took a while to cut a vine before it broke.

In order to speed up the speed, Shi Lei and Guo Jingyi took turns to cut the vines, Shi Lei didn't try his best, he sat aside to rest, thinking in his mind, how to use this kind of vines to fix the wood and eliminate the gaps at the same time.

If the rafts and boats want to do well, the most important point is not to leak water. If there is a gap, it will directly become a colander. How can it float on the sea?It would be nice not to drown.

"Shi Lei, Xi Chupeng's injury can't be dragged on any longer. You should think of a way to bandage the wound. It will take a few days to make a raft. The weather here is hot, so he can't wait."

Guo Jingyi cut off five or six vines, and felt a little strenuous. Her movements were a little slow, but her thinking was running fast. She recalled the things of the past few days, thinking of Xi Chupeng, and couldn't help but worry.

"Understood, Jingyi, you should also take a rest. Your hands are red. If blisters are formed from grinding, and then burst, I have no medicine to disinfect."

Shi Lei knew Guo Jingyi's temperament, conventional persuasion was useless to her, Guo Jingyi was a workaholic when doing things, so she had to start from this aspect.

He directed at Guo Jingyi, spread his hands helplessly, and smiled smugly, but Guo Jingyi felt sweet in his heart, she was the only daughter in the family, and she grew up since she was a child.

Parents and elders told her that she must have a sense of responsibility and must do this and that, so she had to complete various tasks, and later took over the family's business because of her status.

The people around her only treat her courteously and flattery, everyone gets along with her, more or less, there is a purpose, and it is the first time Guo Jingyi feels that she is cared for.

Although Shi Lei's words were beating around the bush, Guo Jingyi didn't feel angry at all. Instead, she felt that this man was pretty good. Guo Jingyi was a little worried that her thoughts would be discovered. She lowered her eyes to hide her emotions, and said in a flat voice, "Okay."

"Jingyi, what you just said really reminded me." Shi Lei moved his body, moved closer to Guo Jingyi, and smiled: "Although we didn't find any herbs, we can make some clean bamboo tubes first, boil the water, Disinfect the cloth and treat Xi Chupeng's wound."

Shi Lei looked around and pondered: "Well...there are enough materials to make a raft here. Let me tell you how to do it. You and Xi Chuyu will help together. The speed will be two or three times faster. Let's go there as soon as possible, and we will be able to find the herbs."

"Shi Lei, just in case, you can't just rely on the herbs from that small island, you'd better look for them in the forest, besides, we don't have much fresh water."

Thinking of the water bottle in the backpack, Guo Jingyi couldn't help frowning, worrying in her heart, she and Shi Lei left in too much haste, they didn't collect enough food and fresh water, so they left in a hurry.

They calculated that food and fresh water would be enough for the two of them for a period of time, but they never thought that someone else would join in. In this way, the time would be halved, and Xi Chupeng would have to double the amount of fresh water needed.

In this way, what they have considered is still incomplete and full of loopholes. If an enemy targets them, it will be dangerous.

Shi Lei experienced some things, his brain reacted quickly, without Guo Jingyi's explanation, after going through her words in his mind, he understood instantly.

He nodded calmly on his face, but he was startled in his heart, cold sweat broke out on his back, he was careless, if Guo Jingyi hadn't reminded him, it was really a dilemma, not only Xi Chupeng, but even their lives were in danger.

"Jingyi, let's go back and talk about it first."

"Okay, Shi Lei, there is a good saying, three cobblers are worth one Zhuge Liang, if there is any difficulty, let's find a solution together."

Guo Jingyi stood up, patted the dirt on her clothes, bent down to pick up the vines on the ground, and reminded a few words after thinking about it.

To be honest, at the beginning, she really recognized Shi Lei, thinking that he was a stinky hooligan, and he also liked to brag, talking about people without acting on people's affairs.

But later, after so many things, Guo Jingyi watched Shi Lei go through the wind and rain and grow into maturity little by little, which made Guo Jingyi believe that the belief in Shi Lei's eyes would support him and walk out of the world.

Guo Jingyi appreciates it, that's why she made some suggestions. What makes her happy is that Shi Lei has his own ideas, which always surprise her.

"...Shi Lei! Where are you looking?" Guo Jingyi was about to open her mouth to praise Shi Lei, but she saw Shi Lei holding a vine in one hand, writing on his nose, blood flowing down his fingers to his wrist up, down to the elbow, dripping onto the ground.

Seeing that Shi Lei still didn't respond, Guo Jingyi's cheeks turned red, she glared at Shi Lei in embarrassment, she raised her leg and kicked it, who knew that if she was not careful, her leg was raised a little high, and she kicked in the wrong place...

"Oh——" Shi Lei felt a chill somewhere, and bent down subconsciously, trying to avoid the opponent's attack, but Shi Lei's head stretched forward too far, and Guo Jingyi's foot kicked Shi Lei's chin .

Guo Jingyi didn't use much force, she just wanted to scare Shi Lei awake, who knows... the touch of the soles of her feet made Guo Jingyi frowned.

"You... are you okay? I didn't mean to."

Guo Jingyi saw that Shi Lei's chin became red and swollen instantly, she was so frightened that she threw the vine on the ground, squatted down to see Shi Lei's situation, she raised Shi Lei's chin, and looked carefully, but she felt a burst of hot gaze.

"you……"

"I almost lost my son and grandson!" Shi Lei looked at Guo Jingyi with aggrieved eyes, and complained in a low voice: "Jingyi, do you and my brother have enmity?"

Guo Jingyi blushed, and scolded: "...Get out!" She subconsciously waved her hand, but she caught the red and swollen chin.

"Aww, it hurts, it hurts!" Shi Lei was looking at Guo Jingyi in front of him, and he was still a little careless, thinking whether to say something, when he was slapped.

Shi Lei bared his teeth in pain, covered his chin with his hands, wanted to cry, but still complained: "It's love, Jing Yi, do you really have a crush on me?"

"Hehe..." Guo Jingyi looked at a certain place with murderous eyes, and Shi Lei clamped his legs tightly.

"Let's go back quickly, it's time for lunch." Shi Lei quickly changed the subject.
