Chapter 57: The Three Girls Teach Me to Make a Rope
We were all hungry this morning because we didn't eat much last night, so we were ready to kill the mutton we got last night.
Fortunately, the four of us are not afraid of the smell, sprinkled our homemade salt on the roast mutton, it tastes quite fragrant, although it was very uncomfortable last night, but life still has to go on, can not sit still, spend the day.
"Qin Ming, did you pick up all the supplies on the boat?" Luo Shijing had nothing to do when she was full, so she sat next to me, and because the two of them were also there, she was embarrassed to put her arm around me.
"Of course, we removed everything that could be used on the ship, the ship has been split in half, and now it must have been blown away by the waves!" I thought back to the rest of the ship's supplies, and it seemed that it was really useless.
"Anyway, it's nothing, let's go to the beach and have a look! Maybe we can find something useful by walking shit luck!" Tian Mengling, the little girl, ran out of the cave.
It seems that everyone is very idle today, and it is okay anyway, so I closed the emu door, watered the wheat a little, and set off with the Pu knife.
It was an outing to lighten up the gloomy atmosphere of last night, as we were so preoccupied with finding food on the beach and grapes in the woods that we didn't have time to enjoy the surrounding scenery.
The forest is lush with trees, and the sun shines through the canopy of the trees to the ground, and although it is hot, it is still very comfortable with the moist sea breeze blowing on your face.
We slipped to the beach and found that the other half of the boat was gone. It must have been swept into the sea by the waves, and the remaining half, because it had been tied to the reef, was still stranded there.
The third girl and I walked over to find that there was really nothing to use except some dirt and broken plates.
I slammed the door of the small room with a knife, and found that it was really quite sturdy, although it was a little messy, but it was also a wooden plank.
"Qin Ming, aren't we going to go around the island~ I don't think it's ideal to build a ship, after all, Robinson dug a wooden boat by himself back then, and it took more than two years, and besides, there are no such thick trees on our island, so I think it's better to use this boat!" Luo Shijing sat on the reef and analyzed.
"I said you wouldn't be stupid by the sea breeze! The boat is half left, and the wood is rotten, shall we push the boat!"
"Qin Ming, are you a pig!Xiao Luo means to saw the boat plank down, and then let's make one ourselves, after all, there are no planks on a desert island~" Ye Wan'er glanced at me.
Anyway, after this Nizi confessed to me twice, she just let go, as if nothing had happened, and I'm getting more and more inexplicable now.
People say that a woman is a play, it seems that it is really not blown, this is not to say that women's ability is great, but that women's thinking ability is incomprehensible. A woman's personality is hot and cold, and she can also speak, so there are few scenes, but I think that with my understanding of women, it is possible for them to act in a TV series alone.
"You're pigs, the planks are all rotten, and we'll sink straight down even if we're done with the boat and we're in the water!" I said, touching the not-so-sturdy plank.
"I think the leaves of the coconut trees are still very good, we can tie them to the bottom of the boat, so that the buoyancy will be greater, after all, the area of the plank in contact with the water is small, and the chance of sinking to the bottom is also small!" Tian Mengling said disapprovingly.
I have to say that the third girl who went to college is much stronger than me, an illiterate person, why didn't I think of this!
"It's a good idea, but where are we going to find so much rope? Only by tying up the planks and leaves can we make sure we don't sink into the water!"
"This also needs to be learned, hahaha, it seems that you are not as good as the three of us to survive in the wild!" Tian Mengling said triumphantly.
"We can find the kind of plant or bark with more fiber, and then use a folding knife to cut them into strips, you old man must not know, but we girls often braid, and we can make strong ropes in that way!" added Luo Shijing.
I can't wait to go back and study for a few more years now, it's really a shame, after all, I've been on the island for so long, and the rope is a big problem that bothers me, and I can't imagine that these three women will solve this matter in a conversation.
"I said you three are so smart, why didn't you talk about it at the beginning!" I was very depressed.
"You haven't mentioned it either!" the three girls said in unison.
I "vomited three liters of blood" on the spot, and I didn't come up in one breath, and I almost passed!
But it did wake me up, and since I didn't have enough brains, I had to rely on the three of them to find the right plant.
We got the hut doors down, cut them off with a knife at the broken board of the boat, and laid them on a nearby reef, and then went to the nearby woods to look for suitable fibrous plants to make ropes.
Ye Wan'er walked barefoot to a few low palm trees, and then took my Pu knife and carefully cut many leaves from the roots.
After that, Tian Mengling and Luo Shijing found a few small stones next to the reef, and then threw me the largest one: "Come, big coolie! Don't stand stupidly, come to work~"
I picked up the stone with a blank face: "What are you doing with the stone?"
"Of course, you hit the palm leaves with stones! Palm leaves are very high in fiber, but we need to use stones to remove the mesophyll from the leaves. Otherwise, it is not strong, and if you don't smash it, it is easy to cut your hands when braiding the rope, and it is not easy to bend. Ye Wan'er turned back to explain to me while cleaning up the palm leaves.
I didn't expect that the rope was so knowledgeable, so I took the palm leaf cut by Ye Wan'er, regardless of the three-seven-twenty-one, sat on the stone and began to smash it.
Maybe I had too much strength, and I was smashed into meat in less than five minutes, but Ye Wan'er was looking at me helplessly.
"Qin Ming, are you a pig! You only need to smash it into strips, why are you smashing it into such virtues? You can boil porridge and drink it!" Luo Shijing was directly speechless, looking at the palm leaves that I had turned into meat puree, and suddenly sighed.
I glanced back at Ye Wan'er and found that this little girl had already cut the palm leaves and was gently smashing the palm leaves with a stone.
She smashed it very regularly, and occasionally grinded it lightly, as if she was grinding ink.
I listened to her movements, and in a few moments I made many palm leaves.
We were busy for more than two hours, and we were really thirsty, and I saw that there were a lot of coconut trees next to me, so I climbed up like a monkey, and got some coconut meat to eat first, and tried not to drink coconut water, otherwise we would have diarrhea again.
After a simple meal, Ye Wan'er, a plant expert who had gone to college, began to teach us......
