Chapter 11: Wild Fruits Satisfy Hunger
Xiao Ning immediately got up, his face wary, he smelled danger.
Those green lantern-like eyes flickered and flickered in the dark night, making people's hearts palpitate.
Xiao Ning hesitated, turned around and knocked on the door, he wasn't sure what would happen in a while, it was best to wake up Chen Ling Sannu.
There is really a case, so that you won't be sleepy-eyed, and you don't even know how to escape.
Bang bang bang!
Chen Ling, who was sleeping, was woken up by a heavy and hurried knock on the door, grabbed a piece of clothing and draped it over his body, and with a hint of getting up, he staggered to the door and opened the door.
"You're annoying!" Chen Ling rubbed his sleepy eyes, his tone full of impatience.
"It could be dangerous!" Xiao Ning said.
"There is ......" Chen Ling just wanted to spit out the fragrance, but she saw those green eyes in the distance, which scared her awake in an instant.
"What are these?" Chen Ling asked, swallowing his saliva.
"Beast, or something else. Xiao Ning was not sure.
Xiao Ning pressed Chen Ling's shoulders and pushed her into the room, and then followed him in, closing the door with his backhand.
"What's wrong?" Chen Xue and Tong Yiyi were also woken up, and they all rubbed their eyes and sat up from the bed.
Xiao Ning glanced at the two of them, and quickly turned his gaze to other places, Chen Xue and Tong Yiyi were only wearing underwear at this time.
After Chen Xue's vision was clear, she found that Xiao Ning had come in, and immediately hurriedly put on a piece of clothing, and at the same time put a piece of clothing on Tong Yiyi's body to cover her.
"Let's get out of here at dawn, and then you can sleep. Xiao Ning said.
However, where would the three girls still sleep, and after listening to the situation outside, they sat until dawn.
When the sky was bright, Xiao Ning opened a crack in the door and glanced out, at this time, the outside was calm and calm, without a trace of abnormality.
But that's what makes it even more wrong! There's not even a hint of birdsong!
"I'll go out and have a look, don't block the door. Xiao Ning instructed, for fear that he would encounter some danger in a while, and the three girls had no brains to block the door and shut him out.
After the instructions, Xiao Ning came outside, did not dare to go far, and patrolled within a hundred meters around the treehouse.
After making sure it was safe, we returned to the treehouse.
"Now let's go, let's go to the east side of the island. Xiao Ning said, go outside and pack up all the rainwater collected last night and take it away as much as possible.
After filling the bottles and cans on his body, Xiao Ning made several more containers from the thick trunk of a tree to hold water.
After making preparations, the four of them began to make their way to the east of the island.
Along the way, Xiao Ning's nerves were highly tense, and he always felt that something was around them, and he kept staring at them.
"Hey, Xiao Ning, can you get something to eat?" Chen Ling walked for a while, then stopped holding his stomach.
From the early hours of last night to now, the four of them have nothing in their stomachs, and even Xiao Ning is already hungry and panicked.
If you only wake up in the morning, you can stay up for a while longer, after all, sleep consumes very little energy.
"Go any further, and you should find some wild fruits. Xiao Ning looked around, the trees here were too dense, and he didn't feel at ease staying here.
Xiao Ning wanted to stop in a slightly open place, so that if there was danger approaching around him, he could find it in a more timely manner.
"Conifer?"
After about half an hour to the east, Xiao Ning found a large area of taiga.
Coniferous forests are generally found in the boreal zone, but according to their route, they will not pass through the boreal zone, and should be in the temperate zone.
There may be coniferous forests in temperate regions, but Xiao Ning has never heard of or seen them anyway, and this has become a mystery again.
"Just stop here, you rest, I'll look around for anything to eat. ”
Xiao Ning found that the terrain here was open, the trees were sparse, and he could see most of the places, so he planned to stop here.
Chen Ling sat directly on the ground, if it was placed in the city, she would never be able to sit down if it was so dirty, but after a few days, she had adapted to the desert island life.
It doesn't matter if it's dirty or not, how comfortable it is.
However, after Chen Ling sat down, he untied the clothes tied around his waist and spread them on the ground on the side, allowing Chen Xue and Tong Yiyi to sit down.
In Xiao Ning's opinion, Chen Xue and Chen Ling's sisterhood should really be reversed, Chen Ling is more like a sister who can take care of people.
Xiao Ning checked his surroundings again before leaving to look for food.
After walking for more than five minutes, Xiao Ning stopped and took out a compass from his pocket.
This compass, which was picked up on the beach, is very cartoonish, in the shape of a Mickey Mouse head, and it is estimated that it is a child's toy.
But for Xiao Ning, on this island where the direction cannot be distinguished, it is definitely an artifact!
Xiao Ning walked a distance of hundreds of meters to the south, and after finding nothing to eat, he turned around and returned to the original point, and then walked hundreds of meters to the north, and finally found nothing.
Immediately afterwards, Xiao Ning returned to the original point and headed east.
Walking out for almost three hundred meters, Xiao Ning found a towering tree full of fruits.
"This ......"
Xiao Ning raised his head and opened his mouth wide, his eyes were full of doubts and shock, this tree is a little special, like the ginseng fruit tree in Wuzhuang Guan in "Journey to the West"!
It was covered with white and chubby fruits, Xiao Ning hesitated for a moment and climbed up to pick a fruit.
Xiao Ning put the white oval fruit he had picked and sniffed it.
"What's this, why does it smell of soap?"
Xiao Ning was stunned, the smell of this fruit is really special, can you eat it?
Xiao Ning climbed up and picked a few more fruits, and then happily found that there were wormholes on it!
Since there are wormholes, it proves that the fruit is basically non-poisonous!
Xiao Ning took off his clothes, picked a dozen fruits, and then turned back.
"What kind of fruit is this? Can you eat it?"
Chen Ling looked at the fruit on the ground with a curious expression.
"Some of the fruit has been eaten by insects and is supposed to be non-toxic, but to be on the safe side, I'll take a bite first. Xiao Ning decided to try it himself.
Xiao Ning took a small bite the size of a red date, the fruit didn't smell bad, but it tasted good, the entrance was sweet, and there was a feeling of cucumber mixed with cherry.
"How?"
Half an hour later, Chen Ling looked at Xiao Ning, who was unusual, and asked.
"No problem, but wait another half hour. Xiao Ning said.
After another half an hour, Xiao Ning still didn't have any abnormalities, it seemed that this fruit was indeed edible.
So, the three daughters, who had been hungry for a long time, picked up the fruit and ate it.
Xiao Ning found that the fruit was pitted, and the core was very small, only the size of a soybean.
Xiao Ning didn't throw away the pit, but collected it, hoping to use it in the future.
After filling their stomachs, the four of them continued on their way.
But not long after the four of them left, several figures disappeared in a flash where they had been resting.
