Chapter 433: Slowly Recovering Strength

Compared to the previous two days, Ye Cheng's speed of progress today is relatively slow.

Because of the violent storm last night, puddles of different sizes were formed on the ground, which brought a lot of trouble to Ye Cheng's advance.

But on this kind of island, which is close to the primeval forest, there are no cars, no planes, not even the simplest bicycles, and Ye Cheng can only choose to use his feet as a tool to move forward.

As the sun slowly rose, Ye Cheng approached the center of this nameless island step by step according to the forward route he had planned in advance.

Fortunately, after the effect of the fruit and the grilled fish yesterday, Ye Cheng's strength has recovered to a certain level.

Otherwise, with today's way of moving forward and environment, Ye Cheng estimated that he would be out of breath and physically exhausted by now.

After walking like this for half a day, Ye Cheng estimated that his four or five hour journey should be 40 kilometers in total, and although forty kilometers is very strong compared to the walking speed of ordinary people, it still seems very small on this vast nameless island.

As time slowly passed, Ye Cheng felt hunger and thirst again. With his current physical fitness, he is not yet able to completely dehydrate and wean himself from food.

Because of the strange mucus in the cave yesterday, Ye Cheng escaped from the cave almost naked, and touched his pocket, fortunately the lighter and the pack of cigarettes that were pressed into cakes were still there.

The existence of these two things made Ye Cheng's mood feel a lot more comfortable, took out the cigarette case with only one cigarette left, slowly lit the only remaining cigarette, and also sat down against a big tree to rest for a while, at this point in time, it should be time for lunch.

If you look around, you will find that it is a very flat open field. Ye Cheng was trying to find out if there were any plants like the fruit tree two days ago, but after looking for a long time, there was still no gain.

The hunger in his stomach became more and more intense, and he could only turn his gaze to the small ponds in the clearing, which was not Ye Cheng's first choice, because no one knew what dangers were hidden in this seemingly calm pond.

These small ponds must have been formed after yesterday's violent storm, and Ye Cheng didn't have much hope that there would be food at any intersection in them.

But at this time, there was no other discovery around, and I could only choose one of the largest ponds, use the branches in my hand as a pathfinder, and slowly walk to the pond with an area about the size of a football field.

To Ye Cheng's surprise, there were two or three large carp about one meter long swimming in this pond at this time.

For Ye Cheng, who likes to eat braised carp the most, he is absolutely not mistaken, the three fish swimming happily in this waterhole at this time, fat and stout, are the big carp known as pork in the water.

The food is also present at the moment, and I don't care if there are other dangers hidden in this pool, so I immediately started to prepare to go into the water to fish.

Because this pond was formed by the violent storm last night, the depth of the pond is not deep, and the deepest place is only about below Ye Cheng's knees.

Ye Cheng quickly made up all the three big carps, set up a grill on a relatively dry open space by the pond, lit a fire, and prepared to enjoy the taste of the grilled fish he enjoyed yesterday again.

In the afternoon, after enjoying the delicious grilled fish again, Ye Cheng also felt that his strength had further recovered.

According to the information I have learned from my current experience, is it possible that on this mysterious nameless island, I have to eat all the food to regain my original strength?

Thinking of the strange forestry in the cave last night, Ye Cheng couldn't help but shudder, if he wanted to eat that kind of weird thing by himself, then he would rather recover his peak strength later.

After a delicious lunch, Ye Cheng moved on. Due to the heavy rain last night, the ground was very muddy at this time, and from time to time there were branches broken by the wind and fell to the ground.

However, Ye Cheng was lucky today, there were no accidents along the way, and when evening came, Ye Cheng walked to a hillside again.

In order not to repeat what happened last night, Ye Cheng decided to climb to the top of the hill to rest today.

Because of the three big carps at noon, Ye Cheng is now very full of physical strength, this small hill is only a few hundred meters high, Ye Cheng only took less than half an hour to come to the top of this hillside.

The top of the slope is very empty, and there are no tall plants, only clusters of bushes that grow luxuriantly.

Ye Cheng sat for about a minute, and immediately began to explore the top of the slope, after all, he planned to spend the night here tonight, and before exploring the surrounding environment, Ye Cheng did not plan to rashly light a fire and rest in place.

The area at the top of the slope is not small, and I have walked around the top of the slope, and I did not find anything abnormal, but found two large stones.

The two large rocks were close together, forming a sheltered corner in between.

Ye Cheng planned to rest in this corner tonight, and the wonderful thing was that there was a stone pit about one square meter in size at the bottom of one of the big stones, if it rained again tonight, Ye Cheng would not be afraid that there would be no place to shelter from the rain.

At this moment, when Ye Cheng passed by a bush, more than a dozen birds of unknown species suddenly flew out of the bush. The birds were startled by Ye Cheng's movements.

Inhabited by birds, it means that there may be edible plants hidden in these shrubs, Ye Cheng searched for the place where the birds flew, and sure enough, he found an unknown plant full of green fruits.

On these green fruits, Ye Cheng found traces of birds, gnawing, seeing these traces, Ye Cheng relieved himself and picked these fruits, and returned to the corner between the two boulders.

The conditions were limited, Ye Cheng just cleaned up a little and ate these green fruits directly. Ye members thought that these fruits looked green and tasted bad, but to his surprise, these fruits that didn't look good on the outside were very sweet and sour in taste, and they were a fruit cherry tomato that you also liked very much.

Since the taste was good, Ye Cheng immediately went to pick all the fruits on the plant and ate them all in one go.

With this good-tasting fruit, Ye Cheng's strength has been further restored again, and he roughly estimated that his strength has now reached about ten percent of his normal state.

With his current strength, Ye Cheng estimates that he will be able to draw with Old Man Xie Jie Xie now, which also means that relying on this level of recovery, if nothing else, Ye Cheng is no longer afraid of any opponent in this operation.
