Chapter 3 The Rainstorm Strikes

On this tidal flat that no one cared about, Chen Yang felt for the first time the sentence in the primary school Chinese "Lovely Grass Pond": "The rod beats the roe deer and scoops the fish, and the pheasant flies into the rice pot." ".

It only took Chen Yang two hours to catch more than 30 blue crabs, two moray eels, five catties of octopus, and a stranded baby shark.

The tidal flat resources are very rich, in addition to blue crabs and shellfish, there are also a lot of large lobsters and wild abalone in the nearby reef area, the lobster is very large, some are thicker than his arm, and the abalone is big and black and can be compared with the New Zealand abalone.

It's a pity.

Chen Yang has no tools to catch them for the time being, otherwise the number of catches will have to increase several times, but it is the most taboo and greedy to catch the sea, and his storage space can't hold so much seafood, plus the tide is about to rise.

I am not very familiar with the climate and tides of this island, so it is better to be safe, otherwise it will be too late to run in the event of astronomical tides.

It didn't take long to get back to shore.

The tide also rose.

Chen Yang looked at the time, it was about more than six hours before he returned, walking on the tidal flats was very physically demanding, and Chen Yang, who was already hungry and playing drums, decided to get a crab to eat.

Chen Yang is really glad that he has the habit of smoking when he goes to the toilet, and he carries a lighter in his pocket, otherwise this desert island will let him drill wood to make fire, Chen Yang feels that he will definitely not be able to do it by relying on his own physical strength.

Near the jungle, Chen Yang picked up some dead wood, and under a nearby coconut tree, he picked up a few ripe coconuts.

On the way, he spotted a slow-crawling creature in a nearby coconut tree that looked like a large spider.

After seeing its appearance clearly, Chen Yang's eyes narrowed into a line and smiled happily, where is this big spider, it is clearly a coconut crab.

The clumsy coconut crab in front of him, who was six or seven pounds tall, and Chen Yang, who was hungry, swallowed his saliva very angrily.

After the discovery of humans by coconut crabs.

He was very nervous, and kept being afraid of going under the tree, but at that crawling speed, it was no different from a sloth, and at this escape speed, it was no wonder that it was almost eaten as an endangered species on the earth, and in 1996 it was included in the Red Endangered List of the International Union for Conservation of Nature.

Coconut crab because it looks cute and cute.

It is not raised with water, and it is not a picky eater at all, so it is kept as a pet by many people.

The food is enough for Chen Yang.

I haven't found a reason to eat this big cutie yet.

It doesn't make much sense to catch coconut crabs to sell by himself, and in reality, he can't sell coconut crabs, otherwise when the time comes, as soon as his peers report it, the city management and industry and commerce will be blessed, and he will have to go to prison for food.

Last year, in their vegetable market, someone sold wild flower eels, and was sentenced to three years, and the wife who just married ran away with others, so miserable that it couldn't be more miserable, Chen Yang didn't want to be a demolition household squatting in prison.

Split the coconut shell with a knife, and along the crack of the coconut, Chen Yang drank the coconut water inside, and then split the coconut shell in half with a knife.

Chen Yang, who does not have a pot, plans to use coconut shells for cooking, and when he used to go out to eat Thai food with his roommates, the store often used coconut shells to make soup, especially chicken soup, which is still very delicious.

Chen Yang plans to give it a try.

Chen Yang took out a blue crab, stabbed it between his eyes with a fish knife, and turned it over to make the blue crab enter a state of suspended animation, reducing the pain of being steamed alive, and then broke the crab shell, took out the gills, broke it in half, and stuffed it into the coconut shell.

As the son of a seafood shop owner, Chen Yang has always been very cautious in eating seafood, and will not take the whole crab to be steamed alive like those videos of catching the sea, after all, the probability of wild crabs being infected with parasites is really higher than that of farming.

Because farmed crabs are generally sprinkled with quicklime, povidone-iodine, and some antibiotics to prevent crabs from getting sick and infected, the wild ones are really hard to talk about.

After stuffing the crab, Chen Yang opened another coconut, poured the coconut water inside on the crab as soup, and then covered the coconut shell and placed the whole coconut in the fire.

A self-created coconut milk blue crab dish is considered complete.

Next, it's a matter of waiting patiently.

While waiting, Chen Yang had a general idea in his heart, the efficiency of manually catching seafood is too low, and after going back this time, he can buy some ground cages and fishing cages, the only advantage of this island is that he doesn't have to worry about someone coming to steal fish.

If you have money, you can also buy a set of fishing tools.

When you are bored, you can fish, Chen Yang has always liked sea fishing, unfortunately, sea fishing has always been very expensive, he can't afford this kind of economic ability at all, fishing gear is very expensive, not to mention, it is also very inconvenient to travel without a car.

But after this island.

You can fish as much as you want, go to the reef area and throw the rod as you want, you can cast the rod as you want, and you can get a speedboat in the future, and you can also go to the open sea to fish.

Half an hour later.

Chen Yang opened the coconut and took out the steamed red blue crab, the rich coconut fragrance mixed with the sweetness of the blue crab, Chen Yang couldn't wait to taste it, but he was hot again and again.

After Chen Yang smashed the crab claws with a knife, he picked out the fatty claw meat, there are indeed many differences between wild and raised, wild blue crab meat tastes like a silky feeling, the fiber is one by one, and the meat is relatively firm and sweet, and the raised ones do not have this taste.

After eating and drinking, Chen Yang broke the crab shell and buried it, he didn't know anything about the jungle world behind it, it was better to be careful, if the food scraps attracted strange things, it would be too much to lose.

I took a look at the time of return.

There are still four hours to go.

For the first time, Chen Yang felt that time passed so slowly, and there was no signal on his mobile phone, it was impossible to eat chicken, it seemed that in the future, he would have to install two stand-alone games to play, otherwise it would be really difficult to endure ten hours.

Not long after, it was getting dark.

Chen Yang felt the wind get stronger.

After looking into the distance, Chen Yang's expression became nervous, a large black cloud was floating over, the dark cloud was really dark, and it could be seen from a distance, there was thunder flashing in the dark cloud, and it looked like a rainstorm.

The more you are afraid, the more you come.

Chen Yang didn't want to be in such a violent wind and torrential rain at all, it was very likely that he would lose temperature and catch a cold, but what could he do now, Chen Yang looked at the jungle behind him, and his brows furrowed tightly.

He decided to make the jungle his last step.

If you really can't help it, you must not rush into the jungle.

Chen Yang's head turned rapidly and thought about what to do when he encountered this situation, he remembered the plot of the game to avoid the rainstorm, and before the rainstorm came, he should make a simple shelter first.

The knife in the hand should be able to cut some small trees, which are used as the main structure of the shelter, and there are no banana leaves, and the leaves of coconut trees can be used to protect from the wind and rain.

After making up his mind, Chen Yang found a few fist-thick trees at the edge of the jungle and cut them down, then arranged the small trees in the shape of a stable pyramid and inserted wooden sticks into the sand.

If you don't have a rope, you can use spotted thatch from the shore, which can be used as a rope when twisted.

I remember when I was a child, my father caught blue crabs in the sea, and when he forgot to bring a rope, he would look for this kind of grass nearby, and twist it to tie the crab, the grass rope twisted up by this grass is very strong, but it is a little bad, very sharp, and it is easy to cut people.

When Chen Yang was collecting, he was cut several times by this grass, and blood beads seeped out, and there was a tingling feeling.

The rainstorm was coming, Chen Yang didn't care too much, after twisting the spotted thatch into a straw rope, Chen Yang dragged a lot of dead branches from under the coconut tree, covered the trunk, and then fixed it with spotted thatch.

In less than twenty minutes, a simplified version of the shelter was completed.

The sea breeze became stronger and stronger, about seven or eight magnitudes, and the coconut trees not far away were blown and shaken, and a few coconuts were dropped by brushing.

Chen Yangzhen was glad that he didn't build a shelter under the coconut tree, otherwise he might have been stoned to death.

In less than two minutes, it was completely dark, the visibility was less than five meters, and then the bean-sized rain poured down, hitting the coconut leaves, making a crackling sound, Chen Yang, who was hiding in the small shelter, had a very bad feeling.

The wind mixed with the torrential rain seeped into the shelter, making a creaking sound that gave the impression that it would be blown over at any moment.

A dazzling flash, the thunder followed, and Chen Yang's hair stood up, this thunder was too close, it was definitely within 100 meters.

He didn't want to be the first person to be forced to cross the trap as soon as he had a golden finger.

......

The torrential rain lasted almost two hours.

In these two hours, every minute of Chen Yang's life was very difficult, especially the explosion of thunder near and far, it was really scary, after all, he even had a system, what was so strange about being struck by lightning.

At the same time, this encounter also made him realize a deep-seated problem, the weather on the island is unpredictable, and he wants to manage the island well in the future.

The first thing to consider is whether to build a shelter that can resist wind and rain, and can withstand the attacks of wild beasts, and it is best to prevent typhoons and earthquakes.
