One Hundred Days on an Uninhabited Island

All the snake meat is gone, either eaten or wasted.

After one night, the snake meat in the foam box was full of flies, so dense that no shadow of the meat could be seen, it made one's scalp numb like it was covered with black maggots.

There is also a vague smell, which is not very offensive, but when I smell that smell, I don't want to breathe.

The meat was not stored properly, and they forgot that neither the old lady nor Wen Siqi thought of storing the snake meat properly yesterday. One was exhausted, the other was tired physically and mentally, and the others didn't have this awareness, so the meat was so frankly exposed in the air.

then……

There is no more, it is all ruined by flies.

The branches poked and poked, and the flies flew all over the sky, buzzing... the buzzing made the scalp even more numb.

Yao Yanan quickly threw the branch and kicked away, watching from a distance the group of flying flies densely falling back into the foam box.

"Tsk... so disgusting."

Rubbing the goosebumps on his arms, Yao Yanan couldn't help but gasped.

This is the first time I have seen so many flies since I went to the island. Not to mention chicken skin, my scalp feels like it is buzzing non-stop, as if those flies are flowing in the blood.

Thinking about it, she couldn't help shivering again, she looked at Wen Siqi.

"How to do?"

"Buy it."

Wen Siqi's expressionless face told others that she was also very bad.

It can’t be left alone, not to mention the unheard of diseases that the flies on the island will bring, if you let it go, you’re afraid that maggots will grow, and then they’ll even have fish in the shadows, and they won’t eat that stuff, There is no need to keep live maggots.

After all, the snake meat was buried. Wen Siqi buried it together with the old man and Lin Jianfei. After digging a hole for a long time, they bravely covered the entire foam box inside.

"What about this snake skin? Don't you want to deal with it?"

The snake meat was spoiled by flies, but the snake skin was not visited by flies, and was still covered with wooden sticks planted in the sand in front of the shelter.

The wooden stick was not as long as the snakeskin, and it didn't go all the way. At least half of the snakeskin was fluttering in the wind, which was very conspicuous. Yao Yanan was awakened by its swing.

"ate?"

"do not want!"

"Don't eat."

"Then let's make a memorial."

"No! I have money, but I don't have this hobby."

"I don't think I need to commemorate it."

"I don't need either."

Opposition always came without hesitation, Wen Siqi grinned, and dug another hole to bury the snakeskin under the resistance of Yao Yanan and others.

It just so happens that she doesn't want to eat it either, and she doesn't know where it can be used for its medicinal value other than eating it. The only thing left is to keep reminding her how it died.

It is better to bury it.

The snake was buried, and the only source of meat was gone, and the breakfast was seafood, no fish, no crab, boring.

I've had a hasty breakfast and I'm not full, but it's time to work.

There are not many things today, such as cutting trees, moving trees, chopping wood, and weaving rope.

Dry and tasteless.

But there is a trace of expectation for the unknown.

They are going to build a raft.

Go to the next island.

An island may be full of more dangers, but there may also be human footprints and islands of hope in life. They are afraid and brave, but they cannot give up hope in life because of fear. As Wen Siqi said, there is no gain without adventure.

Opportunities and challenges coexist, risks and benefits coexist, and life is gambling from the beginning.

Ye Yajie knew this best, and everyone else knew it too, but this time the bet was her own life.

God is the banker, the island is the gambler, Wen Siqi is the gambler, they follow the gamble, they have won many times and lost several times, and they still made money in the end, so they followed the next gamble.

The island is not rich in resources, but there are still trees used as rafts, especially coconut trees. There are quite a few fallen on the ground alone, and the seaspout helped save a lot of effort.

Because of the large number of people, the raft must not be small, and the wood needed must not be small. As long as the trees that are broken on the ground can be moved, they are all gathered on the beach away from the tide line in front of the shelter. There are about nine trees in different lengths. One, not so good.

Wen Siqi took all the active women to look for the tree again, leaving only two men to process the tree, and the rest were responsible for weaving the ropes for binding. The raw material was peeled off the bark of a young tree The fiber is quite strong when rubbed.

Ye Yajie is one of the rope weavers. She is old, weak, sick and pregnant. She can't carry wood or swing a stone axe. It's the easiest way to twist the rope. She has no choice.

Although it was easy, it was not easy at all, the skin was red, and the rope hadn't stretched out a meter. Ye Yajie spread her hands and looked at the red palms, as if they had been scalded, and when she stretched them under the sun, it was even hotter.

Blowing gently, cool off.

Ye Yajie didn't want to do it anymore. She had been wronged anywhere except her heart since she was a child, but in just a few days, she was wronged everywhere from head to toe. The soles of her feet were torn, her legs were scratched, and her hair was about to split in the wind and rain. Now even the hands have suffered.

Quit it!

After twitching half of the rope, Ye Yajie was about to lie back down.

"You can't rub it like that, it's easy to hurt, you have to twist it together like this."

The old lady sat up, and in her hand were several bark fibers that were twisted together to form a strand. There were two strands. The five fingers of the left hand fixed the wrapped part, and the fingers of the right hand first twisted a strand of bark in one direction, and then counterclockwise. Wrap it around the other strand, then twist the other strand, alternately twisting two strands, and the shape of the rope will come out.

It's a bit troublesome, but it's not easy to hurt your hands as the old lady said. Rub it like she did just now. I don't know if it's firm or not. The skin will fall off first.

Ye Yajie picked up the bark again, and imitated the old lady's demonstration just now to twist the rope.

The reality is a bit cruel, her hands are a bit clumsy, no, it's because her fingers are too smart, each has their own thoughts, one listens to the brain, the other doesn't listen, so she can use whatever she wants.

"Fuck!"

Unable to restrain herself from cursing, Ye Yajie saw a pair of small hands stretched out in front of her face, with thin skin and tender flesh, still white, she couldn't help but be jealous.

"Sister Ye, your technique is wrong, you want to do it like this."

The little hands twisted and twisted, and twisted and twisted again, so proficient that they didn't look like a curious kid who just picked up the bark. People couldn't help being jealous, and the serious explanation made Ye Yajie lose her temper.

"Little ghost, are you teaching me how to do things!"

The still warm palm fell viciously on Wen Suiyun's head, rubbing and rubbing, rubbing and rubbing, making a mess of hair.

Seeing the vile carelessness in front of him, Wen Suiyun pouted in aggrieved manner.

comfortable~

Ye Yajie felt that her whole body was exhaling, she was very refreshed, especially when she saw a face very similar to Wen Siqi's, looking at her with aggrieved expression, it was even more comfortable.

Grinning at her unscrupulously, Ye Yajie rubbed Wen Suiyun's head again and smiled.

"Come on, teach it again, I forgot what I just said."

Forgot?

I can't forget that she is clumsy with hands, but not with brains. She just said that as a reward for Shu Tan just now.

Wen Suiyun didn't know what he was thinking, but he sensed kindness sensitively, grinned happily, and began to teach again.

"To do this, first twist this strand once, then wind it around the other strand, and then twist..."

The crisp tenderness was easily blown by the wind, Han Tang glanced at it, then heaved a sigh of relief and continued with his work.

The old lady smiled, picked up a wooden stick, peeled off the bark from the cut, and tore off the fibers from the bark.

In the shelter, the old, the weak, the sick, and the pregnant all perform their duties.

On the beach, another tree slammed up a cloud of dust.

"Whoo~"

Yao Yanan tapped his shoulder and breathed a sigh of relief.

Before it was finished loosening, my eyes couldn't help falling on the tree that was just moved on the ground, and I almost couldn't hold it back.

There were only two trees, and five people dragged two trees in two trips. Although the road was a bit far, it was really embarrassing. On weekdays, Lin Jianfei could carry it all by himself.

But now it is justifiable, let alone them, Lin Jianfei is already very strong if he can carry half of it.

They haven't really eaten a full meal for several days, and they eat only shellfish, fish, and crabs, so it's strange to have strength.

Moreover, it's almost nine o'clock, and the temperature is even hotter. Not to mention the moisture, the skin is...

Yao Yanan glanced at his arm, he was healthy, but also haggard, and even more malnourished.

Immediately, she put down her sleeves, and just in time Wen Siqi's decision came to her ears.

"Let's rest, everyone."

After the words fell, and no one responded, Wang Zhenzhen left first, dragged his steps, left a line of footprints on the beach, and returned to the shelter.

Yao Yanan was also unambiguous, and took Mu Jie back.

Jiang Xinran originally wanted to go back with her, but seeing Wen Siqi go to Lin Jianfei and the old man, she also followed.

"At least two more days."

Wen Siqi asked the old man how many days it would take to complete the raft. The old man looked at the sky, and then answered like this, with an uncertain tone.

Jiang Xinran also looked at the sky. The sun was so hot that the air was rolling with heat waves. After a while, they might not even be able to walk under the sun for a long time, and they were running out of water, let alone being able to move under the sun for a long time. At night, I can't see clearly again, and two days have already passed.

"I see. Grandpa, you and Brother Lin should also take a break and go drink some water."

"I know, I know, let's go if I get it done."

The old man cheerfully agreed, turned his head and went back to work, to see if it will end in a while.

Wen Siqi didn't seem to have any intention of persuading her anymore. After the old man turned around, she also turned around and left. She returned to the camp and said a few words to her daughter, then took a sharpened wooden stick and left again.

Jiang Xinran quickly took the root and followed.

"Aren't you going to rest?"

"You didn't take a break either."

"Miss Jiang's body is just right, but she still needs to rest. If you torment yourself wantonly, I'm afraid it will leave the root of the disease."

"Thank you for your concern, but I know my body well, and it's not a torment, or does Miss Wen feel that she is torturing herself?"

Both feet stopped, and Jiang Xinran saw that pair of calm and gentle eyes, and at this moment there was joy that she couldn't understand, as if she was looking forward to something.

Whether it was silence or silence, just when Jiang Xinran was about to lose her composure, Wen Siqi spoke.

"I would like to stop torturing myself one day."

After she finished speaking, she left without changing her smile as usual, and Jiang Xinran was confused by her uneven pace.

After thinking about it, but she couldn't figure it out, Jiang Xinran put it down and followed.

The two heads protruding from the shelter retracted again.
