Chapter 28: Hunger and Cold
The new camp sits in the heart of this deserted island, surrounded by woods with an open field with a turquoise pool.
Viewed from above, it looks like a sapphire set in jadeite.
"It's so beautiful, it's like a fairyland on earth!"
Nie Chunxian looked at the new camp and sighed sincerely.
"It's not a bad place, right?"
I pouted a little smugly.
Nie Chunxian nodded, and then looked at me with some resentment.
"There are a lot of people living in this place, so why don't you want to bring them all?"
On the way here, she complained a little in her heart that Su Ye knocked herself unconscious, and she didn't say it because she didn't know what the new camp was like.
In case it was the kind of place where only more than ten people could be stationed, it would not be good to bring so many people here, so she could also understand why Su Ye insisted on not letting those people come with her.
But the camp they saw now was more than enough to bring everyone here, and there was a considerable amount of fresh water to drink for all of them for a long time.
Therefore, she is not going to suppress the thoughts in her heart now, and she is going to ask for clarification.
"Little Brother Su, you and Mr. Nie still have something to discuss, so let's go camp first. ”
Xiao Qian saw that the situation was a little delicate, and immediately made this wise decision.
By the waterhole, Nie Chunxian and I walked and talked about our hearts, or our thoughts on each other.
After knowing each other for so many days, we all have a certain understanding of each other.
"Whatever you think of me, just say, I won't be angry no matter what you say. ”
With my assurance, this woman should be able to speak her mind, just as I want to know what she thinks of me.
Nie Chunxian thought for a while and said, "I found that you are a bit selfish, or a bit hegemonic. If someone doesn't do what you think, you will ostracize them or even use violence against them. ”
"This may have something to do with my experience as a soldier, where military orders are like mountains and words are followed. ”
So I get a little angry when I meet that kind of disobedient person, just like the old squad leader in the army, I will never be merciful to those thorns.
"But now that we're not in the army, we haven't received strict military training, and there are a lot of things that we don't dare to do and can't do well, you can't force everyone to be like you, right?"
"I don't deny that I do have some domineering, but I treat everyone fairly, those who have to pay should naturally get a reward, and I won't give a good face to those who don't want to pay. ”
Lazy people are the most annoying.
Nie Chunxian sighed and said, "You are so ruthless to throw them on the beach, if they freeze to death and starve to death, will you be able to live in your heart?"
"I'm not going to put a psychological burden on them, because I think those people are self-inflicted. ”
Why should I care about their lives and deaths if I am not related to those people, I don't have that kind of saintly mind.
"Is that if I did something that made you feel uncomfortable, you would do the same to me?"
Nie Chunxian stared at me with a pair of beautiful eyes without blinking, as if this question was what she really wanted to ask.
She felt that she must have done something early to make Su Ye unhappy, which would cause him to knock her unconscious and prevent herself from interceding with those people.
"Do you have some bumps in your heart about me knocking you out?"
Nie Chunxian nodded seriously.
"Since you asked, then I'll be honest. Our group of people are trapped on the island, it is impossible for everyone to return to civilized society safely, and the principle of survival in this environment is that the strong survive and the weak are eliminated, and those people are both weak and moths, which will only slowly drag everyone down. ”
"Your behavior in the past few days has made me feel that you are a Mary, of course, it is not a bad thing to have compassion and compassion, but there is no need for compassion and compassion in this environment. Everyone thinks about how they can survive, and it is not good for someone like you to think about others, and I can guarantee that none of them will help you when you are about to freeze to death. ”
It is even possible to fall into the ground......
After listening to my words, Nie Chunxian was silent. Maybe my words are a little too true, but I want her to understand that if you want to survive here, you can't be a virgin.
"I'm done with that, think about what to do in the future. ”
Don't pay attention to Nie Chunxian anymore, I have to go see Xiao Qian and them.
"Little Brother Su, the tent materials that can still be used can at most build a shelter for seven or eight people, and it may be able to cover the rain and the wind. ”
I looked at the tent they had set up, and it looked much uglier than the previous one, because it was patchwork, not only ugly, but also insecure.
I looked up at the sky, it was about two hours or so before it was getting dark, and there were materials in the woods to build shelter, but I was afraid I didn't have time today.
The terrain here is relatively high, which means that the temperature difference between day and night will be relatively large.
"Don't worry about this yet, it's getting dark and you have to start a fire quickly, it may be cold here at night. ”
Fire alone was not enough at night, and we had to sleep on the ground without shelter, so we had to get some hay to spread on the ground to insulate the heat.
It becomes very difficult to drill wood for fire here, because most of the firewood found is raw.
It's been an hour since the fire was lit, and everyone's faces showed disappointment.
My hands were sore, the sun had set, I hadn't eaten much all day, and I was too physically exhausted to waste any more time making a fire.
There was no fire to keep warm, so I had to take everyone to collect some dried moss to make the bed, hoping that the dried moss would not allow our body temperature to be absorbed by the ground so quickly.
Night falls.
There was no fire, everything around was temperatureless, and everyone sat back to back on the ground and slept. In this way, you can use your body temperature to ensure that you will not freeze to death.
"Before going to bed, everyone tightens the cuffs, neckline, and trouser hems to prevent snakes or spiders from burrowing into their clothes at night. ”
After listening to my words, the female compatriots were not calm.
"Little Brother Su, let's not sleep then! Everyone can chat until dawn. ”
Xiao Qian felt her scalp tingle at the thought of snakes crawling around at night, and she would rather not sleep all night than let those dirty things crawl on her.
"Well, there's a lot to do tomorrow, to build a shelter and to light a fire and hunt. If you don't rest all night, you'll collapse. ”
Sleepy to the extreme, even if a snake does crawl on me, I will not hesitate to fall asleep, anyway, the snake will not attack anything that is still and does not move.
