Chapter 1035 Exploring the Island
The next morning, Guo Xiaohai woke up early. He had a dream that had not stopped all night. In the dream, he knew who the captain was, and even faced him, but he didn't see him clearly. He dreamed of Xiao Xuanzhuang, his parents and his sister, and even his senior sister, lying in the familiar arms of the world, Guo Xiaohai couldn't help but cry.
No matter how strong a man is, he always has times of fragility. As the only man, he will struggle to survive on this deserted island in the vast Pacific Ocean with two women. How can he be without pressure?
But his fragility could only open his eyes in his sleep, in the warm embrace of his senior sister. He was surrounded by mist and trees. He was still facing this strange island. He had to start running desperately in order to survive like an antelope on the African grassland. Moreover, there were two weak women who needed his care.
The tree house was very safe, and Rachel and Zhong Yuxiu were still sleeping. Guo Xiaohai quietly got up, got down the tree, and patrolled around. It was very close to the beach. Walking further forward, the coast turned into a very steep reef, with the waves washed away, and the wind and waves became much bigger.
Guo Xiaohai did not go further, and there were not many seabirds nesting there. It might be because he faced the sea with strong winds and waves and had no cover. However, Guo Xiaohai was lucky enough to find a nest of bird eggs nearby. Although there were only five, it was already a rare delicious meal.
Take it back, buried it in the fire and simmered it, and Rachel and Zhong Yuxiu have also gotten up. It is delicious with coconut and bird eggs.
Guo Xiaohai has planned today's event. The first step in survival in the wilderness is to find a comfortable shelter and prepare for long-term residence. Then start surveying the islands and gradually improving life. Colleagues find ways to be rescued.
Guo Xiaohai also considered several conditions for choosing a residence and told the two women. Considering that they had three people, this place must be safe, and to avoid sudden attacks such as beasts or unknown savages; second, it must be hygienic and convenient. When three people are together, hygiene issues must be considered; third, there must be fresh water and sufficient food sources; fourth, considering that the sun on the island is hot, it must be able to shade. The last and most important one must be broad, and you must be able to see the sea, or let ships passing by the sea fly by the sky, etc., and be able to see yourself, ensuring that you do not lose any chance of escape.
Under such conditions, and the search and construction of residences can only be carried out bit by bit like building a bunker encirclement. For example, now, they can only pop up near the sea and initially build such residences as a place to settle down. As they further explore the islands in the future, they will find a more suitable place. At that time, they will create a new residence until they find the most suitable place.
After some exploration, the three of them found a vertical mountain on the beach facing the sea. It was located at a high place, and there were mountains behind it. There were big trees on both sides. The sea surface in front was fully visible. Walking forward, there were reef cliffs that stretched out all the way into the sea, just enough to block the wind and rain from the sea.
The three of them built a simple shack outside, and then Guo Xiaohai used a machete to make a few simple wooden shovels. The three of them took a cave of more than a meter high and a meter high on the mountain in the style of a reduced cave, which could barely accommodate three people in size. In this way, there was a cave inside, and a shack at the entrance of Shandong, which turned into a decent residence.
Guo Xiaohai cut many wooden sticks as usual, looking one person tall, and circled around the shack to defend against wild animals.
Because there were no decent tools, this became a huge project. It was working until it was late. The three of them just ate a few coconuts and picked up some shellfish on the reef beach and roasted them.
After working hard for a day, the three of them curled up in the cave, and they couldn't help but have a close look on their skin, but they didn't have much thought. Although the space in the new residence was still small, it seemed safer and warmer. The three of them soon fell asleep.
In the following days, Guo Xiaohai took two women to start slowly going deep into the island for investigation, while continuing to expand their shelter cave here.
Although there is no condition to go deep into the island, the resources and materials are already very rich. In the dense jungle, there are not only birds and beasts, but also many wild fruit trees. They even found mountain grape lemons and a small piece of wild banana trees. The existence of rich plants not only brings wild fruits, but also rich freshwater resources. Some plant stems are themselves a container for storing freshwater. If you cut them down with one knife, the freshwater inside can pour out.
These undoubtedly brought great convenience to Guo Xiaohai and the others' survival. The space of the small cave continued to grow, but the village also became more and more things. Guo Xiaohai had no choice but to expand the wall made of pointed tree sticks twice.
With too much food and good food, it may be because of drinking coconut milk and eating bananas for a long time. Rachel and Zhong Yuxiu not only did not become black and thin, but instead became whiter and tender. The two beauties just swayed in front of their eyes, which made Guo Xiaohai feel a little distracted.
Not only did there be fresh water for food, but also new neighbors. The black-faced monkey often ran to the neighborhood to see the freshness. These guys are all arrogant guys. If you relax your vigilance, he will eventually break into your house. Moreover, when he was naked before, he was ridiculed by this guy, so Guo Xiaohai didn't give this guy a good face. After losing it twice, this guy seemed to have stopped coming and lived a lot of peace.
After several days of preparation, Guo Xiaohai finally decided to take the two women for a long-distance survey. The three of them brought some roasted bird eggs, bananas, and grilled fish pieces as dry food, and took spears and started to march to the island.
These days have been sunny and the sun is shining brightly. However, the trees are towering and the sea breeze blows, so it is very cool. However, it is not easy to drive the road from a place where there is no road in the jungle.
As for the sake of it, although the journey was hard, it was still smooth. The three of them went deep into the hinterland of the island that they had never set foot before. This was an area that no one had set foot. The vegetation was rich, and the three of them soon discovered more unknown wild fruit trees, with fruits hanging on the branches. Guo Xiaohai tasted it and some of the fruits were sweet and juicy. At this time, they tasted like fairy fruits, so they feasted with the two girls.
There are also mountain grapes, and Rachel even started to think about whether she could pick such delicious grapes and dry them into raisins or even make them into wine like Robinson.
There are also more animals. Birds with brightly furred colors appear from time to time. There are also large groups of parrots with colorful feathers, spreading their wings and flying in colorful colors. The people look like they are in a fairyland, which makes Rachel and Zhong Yuxiu excited.
I couldn't go back that night, so they had to camp outside. The three of them went down from the island to the beach not far away. On the side of the rocky beach, the three of them found a cave.
Ha, this is a good place. Guo Xiaohai couldn't help but enjoy it. When he was a child, he often played the game of drilling caves in the mountains. Looking at the small cave entrance, the space inside was actually very bright, sheltered from wind and rain and was dry.
Zhong Yuxiu was a little worried: Can these stones be piled strong? They were blown by the wind and rain on the beach. If they collapsed, they would never dare to think about it.
Ha, don't worry, it will collapse long ago if it collapses. Guo Xiaohai photographed the smooth and round rock path. These were all tested by the storm and were solid. You see, it is convenient to go to the island here, and it is still a distance from the beach, and the tide cannot come up. As long as it is slightly renovated, it can become safe and warm.
But I don't know if there are any residents in the cave. The three of them walked in slowly and looked in. There were many gaps in the cave, and there was air leakage, but the light was good, so I could basically see clearly. Moreover, there was nothing in the cave, very clean, and there was no feeling of moisture.
Next, how to renovate it? Guo Xiaohai said it. The two women nodded and said yes. The three of them quickly started to work, cut down large leaves and branches to the beach and the island, and transported them here. They used the found leaves as wide as banana leaves as mop, and dug a gray-yellow mud at the foot of the mountain, dragged them over one after another, and dragged them several times.
Guo Xiaohai started to put branches and leaves on the cracks around the cave, and then used the yellow mud to cover them little by little. Considering the usual storm on the island, to be safe, the mud went over and over again until all the cracks were filled in.
The night was approaching slowly, and the sea breeze blew became obviously cold. The three of them were so tired that they finally packed up their residence before the night came. The two girls were so tired that they could not move. In order to be more comfortable, Guo Xiaohai carefully spread the remaining dry sand in the cave, which was drier and more comfortable.
The three of them did not make a fire, ate some dry food, and hugged them in disguise and fell asleep. In their sleep, Guo Xiaohai returned to Xiaoxuanzhuang and was walking on the way to the small shop. A sudden thunder sounded from the loudspeaker at the entrance of the village. Then the village chief Ma Changgui shouted in the loudspeaker: It's thunder! It's raining to collect clothes!
