One Hundred Days on an Uninhabited Island

Chapter 54 The Island Harvest Day 18

whoosh-

The quick rustling sound passed by the ears, and the three people who were advancing cautiously in the jungle quickly moved back to back, holding sharpened spears tightly in their hands, and looked around vigilantly.

For a while, the staggered grass and trees and the cover of the leaves did not make the same sound again, and there were no strange creatures poking out their repellent gazes from the staggered gaps of dense leaves, presumably they were just passing by.

Wen Siqi breathed a sigh of relief, lowered her tense shoulders and put away her weapon, "Just passing by, I'm fine."

Hearing her words, Jiang Xinran and Lin Jianfei suddenly dropped their shoulders, their relaxed eyes were so tired.

Also, along the way, their spirits are always on guard, for fear of encountering something they shouldn't touch, or something that threatens them suddenly, the more they go to dense places, the more they have seen There are single-digit snakes, and there is also a centipede, which is half an arm long, and I almost touched it.

Wen Siqi glanced at the two of them, then looked around again.

Then I saw a tree, with the power of the sky, the roots were twisted and thick as dry, and the moss was mixed with the loess.

Wen Siqi stepped forward and looked around, but there were no residents.

"After walking for a long time, I must be tired. Let's rest here for a while before moving forward."

Jiang Xinran and the two didn't object, they walked to the root of the tree and put down the basket, then sat down, leaning against the tree trunk with a simple expression of satisfaction.

The jungle was too dense, the leaves blocked the direction again, and there were many things to avoid. From eight in the morning to two in the afternoon, they went around to the familiar place again.

Wen Siqi turned the basket in front of her body, took off the noose that covered the banana leaf that was sealed to prevent things from falling in, opened the leaf, took out a bottle of water from the basket and handed it to Jiang Xinran.

Jiang Xinran unscrewed the bottle cap, raised her head and dragged her chin, and poured saliva into her mouth.

After taking half a mouthful, Jiang Xinran handed the bottle back to Wen Siqi.

All three of them only drank a little, and none of them was willing to take another sip.

There were only eight bottles of water in the back basket, and no water source was found. The traces of the waterway along the way had disappeared an hour ago, and they could only look for it by luck.

Before you find a water source, you should drink less water and save as much as you can.

After resting for a while, discussing the direction again, the three of them set off again.

Jiang Xinran took Wen Siqi's pannier and carried it on her body, walked to the front, and Wen Siqi went around to the back.

There are two panniers, Lin Jianfei walks ahead one by one, Wen Siqi and Jiang Xinran exchange one, and the seats are switched according to the panniers, so that if something falls on the panniers, they don't know it.

There is a big mountain on this island. It is a volcano with a crater that can be seen clearly.

Passing through a bunch of bushes and stepping over a broken log, the surrounding trees were no longer dense, and the light became brighter. Wen Siqi suddenly called the two of them to stop.

"and many more."

As soon as she turned her head, before the two of them could speak, Wen Siqi walked aside and dug the ground with the other end of the spear.

"what happened?"

Jiang Xinran stepped forward and looked, there was a plant, and Wen Siqi dug around this plant.

"This leaf looks a little familiar. I'm not sure if it is, so I want to dig it out."

"It looks a bit like a sweet potato leaf."

Lin Jianfei came over, looked at the leaves, and squatted down to dig together.

"Sweet potatoes?"

"Well, I used to grow this at home, and I often went to the field to help, but the field disappeared a long time ago, and I can't remember what Changtuli looked like. It feels a bit like it, and it is almost mature."

It doesn't matter whether it's really sweet potatoes or not, Jiang Xinran immediately regained her spirits and started digging together.

Not long after, when Tu Xia saw Zhu Hong, the three of them were overjoyed.Wen Siqi put aside the spear and dug with her hands instead.

After a while, the sweet potato was unearthed, with vermilion skin and a plump body, even though it was covered in mud, it couldn't cover the love of Wen Siqi and the three of them.

"Looks good!"

I counted eight of them, not many, but they were all in good fortune. If they hadn’t been dug out by hand, they would have thought they were domesticated cubs. Lin Jianfei looked left and right, and the scar on his face showed another 'stern' Come.

Wen Siqi and the two couldn't hide their laughter, and the more they watched, the more joy they felt.

It’s been eighteen days, and I can finally see a food that can really fill you up and has a strong taste after being cooked. Who would not be happy with coconut meat that has lost its appetite.

Taking a deep breath to suppress the joy in her heart, Wen Siqi looked around again, but did not see any similar plants for the time being.

"Should we look around again, maybe there are more?"

Seeing Wen Siqi looking around, Jiang Xinran guessed what she was thinking, so she proposed.

Wen Siqi hesitated for a moment, then agreed, "Alright, let's spread out and look around, remember not to go too far, and pay attention to safety, if you encounter danger, be sure to shout immediately."

"Ah."

"it is good."

Having just dug up eight sweet potatoes, it is self-evident that there is an expectation in my heart to see the next sweet potato, and they are extremely eager to find them. The two of them picked up their spears without hesitation and walked towards each other, which made them fearful. the unknown.

Watching the two leave, Wen Siqi put the basket and sweet potatoes that had been put down under a nearby tree, marked a bush, and also took a spear to go in the direction where no one was going.

Sometimes, greed is not necessarily bad, a person without greed will never move forward.

Carefully picking apart the flowers and leaves, Wen Siqi looked forward and explored along the way. Wen Siqi failed to find another sweet potato leaf. She turned her head to look at the marked shrub, and turned back.

Suddenly, out of the corner of his eye, he saw a tree.

Not high, about two or three meters, the trunk is a little slanted, and there are blue fruits on the tree, which look a bit like pears, but they are not.

Wen Siqi stood under the tree and looked at it for a while, but couldn't figure out a memory. After thinking about it, she put down the spear, looked around again, and took off the straw sandals.

Taking a few steps back and twisting her ankle, Wen Siqi took a deep breath, bowed slightly, and rushed out with her left foot.

After kicking and kicking a few times, she nimbly climbed up the tree trunk, as if she was moving like a rabbit, but she didn't see the slightest trace of her usual Shuwan, and her vigorous skill showed that she was very good at it.

Of course, there is a set.

Liuzhen is a water town. There are many kinds of willow trees on both sides of the waterway, and the willow branches hang down the river for fishing, so it is named Liuzhen.When spring and summer came, the people who climbed the trees were either birds or children, and Wen Siqi was one of them.

She climbed up and down the willow tree next to her great-grandfather's house for three years, and she has developed a good tree climbing skill.

Until she was taken back to Nancheng, Nancheng was a huge birdcage that gathered her wings by her side.

Climbing up the tree, Wen Siqi carefully moved her body close to the branch, reached out and picked a fruit.

The outer skin is smooth but uneven, and the color is light. Some of them look like ugly oranges. There are pomegranate-like stalks at the bottom of the fruit. Sniff it under the nose. The smell is light and has no unique smell.

Cut the head with an aluminum knife, the flesh is a bit soft, it is easy to cut a mouth, the flesh is light red, rub it on the arm, it is a little cool.

Putting away the aluminum knife, Wen Siqi picked a few more and jumped off the tree, picked up the spear and carried the fruit back to the place before.

Jiang Xinran yelled just now. Hearing the voice, she must have found something. Her tone was high and she was very happy.

……

"Good fellow, ten fat boys!"

Lin Jianfei grabbed the sweet potato vine and lifted a handful of sweet potatoes. They were all big, and the smallest one had Jiang Xinran's fist. He was so fat that he didn't look like a wild child at all.

Jiang Xinran was even more smiling, subconsciously raised her head and looked to the side, her smile faded away.

"Wen...Where's Siqi?"

I turned my gaze around twice, but didn't see anyone, so I hurriedly stood up and stretched my neck to look in the direction.

"Did you go too far and didn't hear it?"

"No, she will definitely not go far."

All of them may go far, but Wen Siqi will not go far, she is not a reckless person, Jiang Xinran can be sure.

But Wen Siqi didn't come.

Did something happen, and I didn't even have time to call for help?

Thinking of this possibility, Jiang Xinran couldn't stand still, turned around and strode away.

After walking a few steps, a figure suddenly came out of the cover and bumped into her.

Everyone took a step back, everything was safe and sound, Jiang Xinran couldn't help raising her voice when she saw the astonishment in front of her, "Wen Siqi? Are you okay?!"

Wen Siqi was stunned for a moment, her mind that had just been shaken didn't realize whether she had good intentions or bad intentions.

After a moment of silence, Fang smiled and said, "I'm sorry, I saw a fruit tree just now, so I went up and picked a few, which made you worry."

"fine."

Jiang Xinran quietly withdrew her expression. At this moment, she realized that her worry seemed to be too urgent, and there was something wrong with being anxious.

Didn't she really have ulterior motives for Wen Siqi as Ye Yajie teased?

Jiang Xinran found it funny.How is this possible, she is sure that her sexual orientation is not biased, and she has no feelings for Wen Siqi, the impatience just now is just a normal worry about her companions.

It's just a concern for my companions.

Jiang Xinran lowered her shoulders.

"Siqi is here, take a look at this!"

Lin Jianfei came over with a sweet potato in his hands.

The ten big men bumped into each other, there was no crisp sound, but their emotions were easily aroused, even if they were prepared in their hearts, they couldn't help being happy.

The more Wen Siqi looked at these guys, the more she liked them. She reached out and touched them. No one on this island could refuse this kind of food.

"very nice."

It’s really good. The sweet potato can play far more than a fish or a pot of shellfish, and it is rich in nutrition. One is enough to fill the stomach, can’t it be good?

The three returned to the place just now with the ten newly dug sweet potatoes.

Lin Jianfei put the things in his back basket into the back basket behind Jiang Xinran, then removed the vine leaves from the sweet potatoes and put them in his back basket, and carried them on his back. He weighed the weight and smiled even more happily.

Wen Siqi and Jiang Xinran could clearly see the heavier weight.

"Will it be too heavy? Why don't you put a few on me."

"It's not heavy, it's just these few quantities, and I can carry it on my back." Lin Jianfei patted his back basket and rejected the kindness, "By the way, what kind of fruit are these."

The fruit picked by Wen Siqi just lay on the ground casually.

"Guava, also called guava, also known as chicken shit fruit, is an edible fruit that can be eaten from the outside to the inside, and the taste is not bad." Jiang Xinran picked up the fruit whose head was cut off by Wen Siqi, "It's red heart guava, Its meat is softer than white heart, and its taste is also fragrant, but their seeds are a bit hard, so you have to be careful when eating them, and they are not easy to digest and cause constipation.”

Jiang Xinran took another fruit and weighed it in her hand a few times, then lifted the corner of half of the T-shirt and rubbed it on the peel, then asked Wen Siqi for an aluminum knife, used it to cut the guava into two pieces, picked up half and took a bite , and handed over the other half to Wen Siqi.

"Eat it all, guava can replenish a lot of water."

Wen Siqi took the guava and took a small bite. I don't know if it is sweet or not, but the flesh is soft. It tastes like eating a pear but is different from it.

"Is it delicious?"

"Ah, not bad."

Wen Siqi smiled back, the smile was not deep, making Jiang Xinran not sure if she really thought it was good, especially the calmness while eating.

Lin Jianfei also picked up a guava and wiped it on his clothes, biting it like an apple.

Soon, all the guavas that were picked were eaten.

"Is there any more?" Lin Jianfei asked.

"Yes, there are quite a few more on that tree."

"Pick a few fruits for dinner tonight, let's go find a place to camp."

Jiang Xinran raised her hand to check the time, it was already past five in the afternoon, and then looked at the sky, it was getting dark, they had to find a safe place to camp.

Wen Siqi thought for a while, and said, "That's fine, but I want to pick all the ones that can be picked back, and bring them back to the camp with the sweet potatoes tomorrow morning."

It is impossible to carry the sweet potato on your back all the time, and you may not be able to find the guava when you turn back. Instead of carrying it and missing it, it is better to take them back together first.

Jiang Xinran and Lin Jianfei had no objections and agreed.

After the discussion, the three of them got up to pick guavas. This fruit tree bore a lot of fruits, and a basket was full, and some were hung on the high branches.

Unable to let go, the three had no choice but to give up their greed for the remaining fruit, and leave the fruit tree to find a suitable place to camp.

It's getting dark.
