The heavy rain at noon did not stop until the afternoon, and the bean-sized water droplets formed a rain curtain, which made people unable to open their eyes.

It is said that the beach where the camp is located is actually not low. Compared with the slow beach on the east coast, it is steeper, and there is a drop of one or two meters between the height and the sea.However, the beach is a beach after all, and once the sea becomes powerful, these areas are the first to be engulfed.

Jennifer packs her bags in the rain.

She is a very determined person, once she decides what to do, she will not look back and forth.However, making a good decision is difficult in practice, especially the minutiae in the "moving" process, such as luggage - when you first landed, it was nothing more than a backpack and an escape box. After a few days of development on the island, you have to consider how to move. Handling bamboo tubes, snail shells and dried meat.

Forget about the dried meat, what about the fresh water, or... just don't bring it?

Jennifer pondered.

Humans can survive for weeks without food, but only three days without water. The importance of fresh water cannot be overstated.But no matter how important fresh water is, it is impossible to carry so many bamboo tubes on the road. After much deliberation, she had to choose a compromise solution: seal all the bamboo tubes with wide leaves and plant vines, and insert them vertically at the height of the camp.

"There is no other way," Jennifer said while tying the rope. "If it rains in the next few days, you don't have to worry about running out of fresh water. If the weather turns fine next, I can go back to the camp to dig out the water again." These bamboo tubes. It’s easy to make a fire on a sunny day, as long as the water can be boiled, even a little bit of impurities won’t hurt anything.”

This theory is limited to bamboo tubes. As for the fresh water in the conch, you can only drink as much as you can.

When I started working, I didn't feel that the time passed slowly. When the rain stopped, Jennifer put down the work at hand.She rubbed her arms, stood up and stretched her shoulders, and went outside the shed to observe the sky.

The cloud had dissipated somewhat, the sky gradually brightened, and the visibility on the sea gradually recovered.A few hours ago, she was blocked by the rain curtain, but now standing on the shore, she can see far away at a glance.

At this moment, a small dot suddenly appeared in the sky.

At first she thought it was a large piece of rubbish in the sea, but after a few waves passed, she took a closer look and found that the black spot that rose and fell with the waves was clearly a ship!

Jennifer's pupils shrank.

She immediately realized that this was an excellent opportunity to escape, and the key to escape was the flare in the camp.She had never felt that she ran so fast. From running back to the shed to digging out the signal flares and then climbing up the rock pile, it seemed that it only took a moment to go back and forth. When the signal transmitter was raised high, the ship Still on the ocean.

The help item given by the production team was not the conventional three-shot flare gun, but a single-shot vertical flare, which meant she only had one chance.

Others might hesitate, but Jennifer pressed the trigger decisively after standing still.

Success or failure is here!

The bright flame erupted from the bullet port with the touch, and it soared up in a blink of an eye, hanging towards the sky.

On a cloudy day, this light is particularly eye-catching. It not only illuminates the sea surface and reefs, but for a few seconds, only this fire can be seen on the screen of Panorama No. [-].

Jennifer held her breath, and so did the audience in front of the screen, waiting for the ship's reaction, but—

No, nothing.

The black dot gradually drifted away in the sky, and soon disappeared out of sight in the ups and downs of a few waves, and nothing could be seen.

pity.

The ship missed the flare, and not only that, but she had used up her only chance to use it to call for help.

Jennifer let out a long breath, shook her head with her hands on her hips.

Her state of mind is still relatively stable, but the audience who experienced ups and downs in a few minutes find it difficult to accept.

[It's a pity, why didn't I see such an obvious signal flare!It was almost a win! 】

[Yes, I am ready to go to Jenny’s Twitter to celebrate the victory. Although happiness is important, safety is more important. 】

[Nowadays, many ships do not rely on manual inspection of the sea like before. The degree of automation is high and the signal flare stays in the air for only a few seconds. It is possible that they cannot be seen, but it is really a pity. 】

The comment area was almost flooded with sighs, but Jennifer on the island turned over and jumped off the reef lightly.

"Okay," she shrugged, "I guess good luck won't last forever, so I'll pack my luggage and prepare to move as planned."

This posture seemed to be unaffected in the slightest, which somewhat calmed down the aggrieved audience.

The mental state is very important when surviving in the wild. They are afraid that the players will fall into a trough because they see hope and hope is shattered. This is one of them.Second, there are only less than 50 hours before the storm hits. In the past few days, many spectators can't even go to work, can't eat, and just want to worry about their favorite players.The combination of multiple emotions makes them like firecrackers ready to catch fire.

Unaware of these lawsuits, Jennifer returned to camp to take the next step.

Compressed biscuits, first-aid kits, canvas and some dried meat were stuffed into the backpack, and the water bottles on both sides were filled with mineral water bottles on one side and two packs of emergency water on the other side.In this way, the remaining jerky can only be wrapped in wide leaves and hung around the waist. Jennifer twisted a few more plant ropes by the way, and tied the waterproof flashlight tightly to hang on the outside of the backpack.

After doing this, she continued to use blades and ropes to completely protect her calves, and the two originally wrapped trousers were cut and bandaged on the soles of the shoes.

The plastic slippers given by the production team are actually not suitable for walking in the forest. The forest is wet and slippery. When the friction is not strong enough, people are likely to slip due to mud and wet moss.Injury to a muscle is a small matter, but a stab or a broken bone is a big deal.

It was already evening when everything was ready, and the sky outside was completely clear.

Jennifer drank the water in the snail shell, ate something, and was going to go to the beach to see the situation.

She squatted down on the shore.

At this time, the waves hitting the shore were obviously different from the previous few days. These waves stretched for hundreds of meters, the peaks were round, and the distance between one wave crest and another wave crest was very long.When they pushed to the shore, the crests rose rapidly upwards, and in the end even formed a huge reverse wave, slapping the reefs on the west bank and splashing water droplets soaring into the sky.

The originally crystal-clear sea water became turbid. In this position, Jennifer could clearly see the creatures in the sea, but now she can only see the cold sea water.

She stared thoughtfully at the sea for a while, then looked up at the sky.There are several long and straight colored clouds hanging in the sky, like fan bones radiating from a center.

"Plans have changed and I can't stay overnight in camp," she murmured. "Long waves, converging clouds, rain, it's a storm coming, no wonder—"

No wonder the ship was in a hurry to return to the port just now, it must have been warned to avoid the wind.

Alarm bells rang in Jennifer's heart.

She completely overturned her previous expedition plan and decided to take a risk and start heading towards the jungle before dark.

"I had to find shelter before the storm came. Storms can turn calm seas into man-eating hells, coastlines can be swallowed up in an instant, islands into barren lands, and land into marshlands."

Continuing to stay on the beach, the invading waves and the roaring sea wind may turn this place into her burial place.

Without further ado, Jennifer was ready to go immediately.

She carried her luggage and spelled out an SOS symbol with wood on the shore. Although it was mostly useless, it was better than nothing.

Before submerging in the woods, she looked back one last time, saying goodbye to the temporary camp where she had lived for a few days.

***

The road in the jungle is very difficult.

After the rain, the sky was getting dark again, and Jennifer could only use the wooden spear to open the way at the other end.

At this time, the audience could no longer see the panorama, and the No. [-] and No. [-] cameras that took the distant view were always blocked by tree branches, and only the pictures of No. [-] camera could be seen clearly.

Jennifer had to slow down after barely walking forward for a while. At first, the audience didn't quite understand, until she inserted the wooden spear into the seemingly solid ground in front of her, and the whole wooden spear disappeared.

"Some canopy can hide dangerous gaps." She pushed aside the vegetation on the ground, "It's...it's dark below, and I can't see the terrain clearly. If I was not careful just now, I might have fallen in, If you're lucky, maybe it's just a broken leg; if you're unlucky, maybe I won't be here anymore."

Go around to the side.

"So that's why I hate the jungle. If the ocean is undercurrents, the jungle is killing every step. Compared with them, the flat beach is as cute as a good baby."

She split a few tangled vines with an outdoor knife, and landed her foot carefully.

"There are a few tall trees in front of us. You can use canvas to make a hanging hammock. Depending on the cloud cover, it will take a while for the storm to hit the island, so I probably only need to worry about precipitation and cooling tonight."

Jennifer unloaded her luggage under the tree and wiped off her sweat.Calculating the distance, she probably only penetrated less than a mile toward the center of the island, but the terrain has obviously become higher.

Dinner is still snake meat.

The woods in the forest where it had rained were very damp, and it was still difficult to start the fire even after a lot of effort. The wet clothes stuck tightly to her body, which made her feel very uncomfortable, but that was all she could do in the wild.

After dinner, she hung the canvas between two big trees with the thick rope given by the production team, covered the top with leaves, inserted the wooden spear point down into the rope loop, and kept the outdoor knife at hand.

The worst-case scenario of wildlife didn't show up, but it still wasn't exactly a good night's sleep.

The environment in the forest was humid, and the scabbard was scorched and painful. When Jennifer woke up the next day, she still felt sore all over.

A few unknown bugs were crawling on the skin, she brushed off one from her shoulder, and grabbed another from her neck, her expression remained unchanged from beginning to end.

The camera played the morning paper——

[Day9: The number of survivors is 1766. 】

The landslide decline in numbers was to be expected.

It looks like she's not alone in being affected by the bad weather.

Still being able to receive information from the outside world gave Jennifer a little peace of mind, and she was ready to move on to higher places.

"Everything is not perfect in the wild," she said to the camera as she set off, "I have to set limits for myself. If I still can't find a suitable shelter today, I will start building a strong enough shelter in the woods." houses."

This sentence was originally just a warning to myself.

But maybe she was lucky in the dark. After walking uphill and downhill for a while, she saw a cliff in front of her.

This cliff is very steep, and the cliff is covered with unknown vines.

Jennifer circled tens of meters along the bottom of the cliff, and soon found a cave at the foot of a banyan tree.

She got in and checked, and she couldn't help showing a relaxed look on her face.

"The situation is good. Caves are good shelters. Many aborigines and fishermen have similar records. Fishermen in the Caribbean have legends of relying on caves to survive when storms come. There are also disaster-stricken people in ancient oriental countries who abandoned their houses and entered caves. The ancient records of avoiding danger."

"If it's a gravel slope or an ordinary sunken slope, I still need to worry about whether there will be rockfall and mudslides in the rainstorm and strong wind, but this cave is protected by vines and banyan trees, and it looks relatively safe. The only problem is the entrance of the cave. Down, there could be problems with drainage if it rains hard..."

Jennifer unloaded all the luggage at the entrance of the cave, and sighed slightly.

"...It seems that I still need to make some improvements to this cave."
