Chapter 184: The First Day on a Desert Island (Ask for Recommendation)
It took about 3 hours for everyone to finally locate a pure water source through a simple phone message.
The source of the water is located on the south side of the whole island, and it is the upstream source of a small stream, a circular pool with a diameter of more than 30 meters. The waterhole is surrounded by a variety of lush plants, and from the knowledge of these lush plants, one can deduce that the water is directly drinkable.
Of course, it's best to boil it before drinking.
At the same time, standing on the edge of the pond and looking at the center, the pool will show an emerald green color, but if you look back at the position of the shore, you will find that the water source here is quite clear, and you can even see the fish swimming underwater.
From this series of small details, it can be guessed that the center of this pool is at least more than 20 meters deep, and it may even be a huge underground cave.
So where did all this water come from? It turned out that there was a surging waterfall that flowed down from a ledge on the upper level of the pool, and it may have taken a long time to converge to form such a deep blue pool.
After solving the water source problem, then it is necessary to confirm the location of the shelter, originally they planned to build a few wooden sheds near the waterhole, but when they think that this island belongs to the tropical monsoon climate, the probability of rainy nights is quite large, if you build a simple wooden shed, you will not be able to withstand the invasion of heavy rain, and at the same time, you have to worry about whether there will be a big flood, if a large amount of water really gushes on the ledge of the waterfall, then the water level of the entire pool is estimated to rise a lot, and at the same time, it will also flood all the surrounding plants.
Therefore, because of all the speculations above, the people decided to change the construction of the shelter to the search for shelter.
After voting on the three most suitable locations for shelter they had previously found, they unanimously chose the cave on an eight-meter-high rock wall as their shelter for the five days.
Actually, it wasn't really a cave, it was just a naturally formed cavity. The depth of the cave is about 10 meters, because it is on the rock wall, so it is not affected by the damp smell of the ground, and the cave is relatively warm and dry, plus the reason why the high place does not attract wild beasts, and there is no need to worry about rain leakage and water accumulation, in addition to being more than eight meters above the ground, it is an excellent place to shelter.
However, the distance between the shelter and the water source would have taken them fifteen minutes to cover the distance, even if they ran with all their might.
Fortunately, the six of them have met the requirements after twenty-five days of training in the alphabet, except for a little trouble and will lose contact for a while, which is only a trivial problem.
At about four o'clock in the afternoon, the group made six simple wooden beds with plantain leaves, wooden rattans and tree trunks under the cave, and a fence to seal the entrance of the cave, and hollowed out several large tree trunks to serve as simple water storage containers.
The next thing to solve is the problem of food and campfires at night.
The six of them hadn't eaten for almost a day at this time, and in addition to the fact that they had been running non-stop to find work, their physical strength had already reached the edge of the limit.
Everyone wants to rest, but campfires and food are essential, and they have to be done before dark.
Otherwise, when the sky is completely dark, it will be even more difficult for them to move without a light source.
The team was assigned again, with Kamijo, the best of his stamina, taking two hollowed-out wooden barrels to the waterhole to fill it with drinkable water, while Tears followed him to the waterhole to see if he could catch any fish in the water.
Then it was Shiraya and Kuroko who were tasked with searching for edible fruits and dried plants and trees near the cave.
As for the task of the two top students, Ichibantong and Mikoto Misaka, is to think about how to quickly make a fire and save the source of fire for five days.
The work of catching fish is actually not difficult, with the current reaction speed of Tears, as long as he picks up a few small pebbles by the river, and throws the pebble out of his hand when he sees a fish in the shallow water, he can almost hit and stun the fish that is being targeted.
After the two large wooden barrels were filled with water, Tears caught nearly ten stunned fish in his hands.
In addition, no one on this small island will come to this waterhole to fish, and the fish in the pool are generally not small, almost one can be full, even if you have a big appetite, you can eat up to two.
The problem of food was also solved, and the two men walked to the shelter with one holding the water source and the other with the food.
After the tears brought back the water source and food, Bai Ye and the two of them also completed the assigned task, not only found a large number of trees and fruits that could start fires, but also found an abandoned iron pot, which is said to have been found in a temporary campfire, but the campfire was no longer usable at this time, and should have been abandoned for a long time.
It seems that there were people who lived on this island for some time before.
One party and the Misaka Mikoto clan finally came up with a way to use the rope sawing method to rub the charcoal to ignite the fire, although this method of making fire is also as difficult as drilling wood to make fire, but the friction of the hand will be much easier.
Luckily, after several people took turns to try, Kamijo Danma actually took advantage of his physical strength, and really took the lead in getting the charcoal out before the sun set, and successfully lit the bonfire.
After the joint efforts of everyone, they finally ate the first meal of the day, with boiling water, and a hot dinner, and the quality of their dinner dishes is quite good, natural wild fruits and original ecological steamed fish.
Although there are no seasonings, some sweet wild fruits are crumbled and poured on top of the steamed fish, which is quite delicious.
Similar to Mai Trin's previous analysis, at about six o'clock, the sky on the island was completely dark, and the only light left around was the campfire in the shelter and the starry sky in the sky.
Because of the fight with the alphabet in the morning, plus the long helicopter ride, everyone was running and searching for each other after arriving at the island at the same time. So at this time, each of them is physically and mentally exhausted, and they actually prefer to fall asleep earlier than to enjoy the beautiful scenery of the sky.
So after arranging the vigil in a reasonable order, and adding firewood to the campfire every once in a while, he fell asleep quietly.
……
In the early morning, when the first rays of sunlight shone through the raft into the cave, everyone slowly opened their eyelids and got up from the wooden bed.
Then they washed their faces with the water left in the barrel and ate a little of the fruit they had left over from yesterday for breakfast.
After all this was done, everyone continued to gather together and began to discuss the tasks to be assigned today.
"It's very easy to get a bad stomach if you eat steamed fish for a long time, so the main task today is to see if you can spot some small wild animals such as hares, goats, and wild boars. Mikoto Misaka looked around at the crowd for a moment, and then said what she thought of yesterday.
"But you still have to stock up on live fish, which you can grab and keep in one of the barrels as emergency food. Kuroko also agreed with Mikoto's idea, and also gave some suggestions of her own.
"But because there is still a lot of water left in the barrel, so there is no need to worry about drinking water today for the time being, let one of the six of us go to catch fish, and the rest of us will also go to the neighborhood to find out if there are any animals and things that can be used, I think there will be some useful things left in addition to the iron pot. Mai Trin roughly sorted out what they were going to accomplish today.
