Chapter Eighty-Three: Preparations Before Escaping
The two women listened to Wang Qiang's explanation, thought for a moment, understood his intentions, and nodded their heads. Pen & Fun & Pavilion www.biquge.info
At dusk, Wang Qiang carried the weeds that had been exposed to the sun at noon into bundles and carried them back to the cave, sat cross-legged at the entrance of the cave, and the fine grass became a rope and danced the weeds.
"Hey, Comrade Wang, I didn't expect you to have this kind of talent?" Xiaoxiao covered her mouth and said happily.
Wang Qiang smiled, "The family heirloom, the male is not like the female, whether you are my daughter or not, you have no chance to learn." ”
"Qin, you can try it first." Wang Qiang's tone was quite respectful, he stood up and handed the clothes to Qin Lu.
Qin Lu took the clothes, "Don't call it Qin, we are now trapped on a desert island, what kind of subordinates are we divided into?" ”
The style of the coat woven by Wang Qiang is like a long windbreaker, with knee-high lower body, staggered in front of the body, tied and fixed with several straw ropes, like the buttons of ancient costumes.
Qin Lu wore it on his body, twisted his waist and looked at it, it was more suitable, the weeds were arranged horizontally and vertically in an orderly manner, symmetrical left and right, and it was really a good handicraft in his heart. It's just that the grass is scratching on her body, making her originally white and tender skin a little uncomfortable, but seeing Wang Qiang so attentive, Qin Lu pursed her lips but didn't say anything.
Wang Qiang saw her thoughts, "It must be a little itchy on the body at first, but it is good to wear it for a few days and wash a few waters." ”
Qin Lu and Xiaoxiao were stunned at the same time, although according to common sense guesses, the grass clothes should fit as he said, but Wang Qiang said this, his expression was extremely affirmative, and then he frowned slightly, and looked up at the outside of the cave, as if he remembered an unknown past.
"Lao Wang, why are you stunned, hurry up and make my one, do you want me to accompany you like this?" Xiaoxiao shouted.
Another joke.
This time, Wang Qiang did not sigh helplessly as usual, and then blamed "You kid!" "Don't talk nonsense!"
He just groaned, sat down again, and began to weave another robe. His expression was still solemn and he didn't say a word.
In the next few days, another incident caused a sense of crisis among the three of them.
The water of the mountain stream, which was originally raging in torrents, became slower and slower, and the current became smaller and smaller, and the speed of change was very fast, and after only three days, the waterfall was half smaller than before, and the area of the whirlpool under the cave was reduced by most of the area, and the fresh water was dying day by day.
It's not hard to imagine that before they came to this deserted island, it had just rained here.
According to Wang Qiang's more professional inference, there was a heavy rainfall here not long ago.
Unlike on land, it is difficult to have a light rain, but when it rains, it is mostly heavy rainfall. And every time there is heavy rainfall, it is mostly accompanied by a vortex of atmospheric depression, and that is a typhoon.
It was the typhoon that contributed to the fresh water on the desert island, and when the fresh water was exhausted, they longed for rain, but the unknown scale of the typhoon was not another disaster for them?
Wang Qiang wanted to follow the mountain stream several times to find out the source and find out the mystery of this mountain stream, but every time he thought of the terrifying snake-body centipede and the strange man and ape in the forest, he immediately dispelled the idea. This island is full of treacherous dangers, and there are still many unknown threats, even if he takes two women and walks forward, no matter how deep he is alone, it is difficult to ensure the safety of the two women.
This cave born behind a waterfall in the rocks of the mountain, although simple, is now a barrier for him to ensure the safety of the two women.
In the past few days, Wang Qiang has been working on three things.
First of all, hunting fish and birds, stockpiling food, swimming fish in the water, and birds flying in the forest, this matter is relatively labor-saving, Qin Lu and Xiaoxiao are both talented and intelligent, Wang Qiang quickly taught them the method of fishing around the stone, plus they have their own hunting tools and bamboo water cylinders made of withered grass and wild rattan, only relying on the cooperation of two women can meet the diet, and there is a little food and water storage every day.
In the morning, Wang Qiang was full of physical strength, Wang Qiang's main job was to use the only flying knife to cut down trees for the needs of the ship, the flying knife was thin and light, not suitable for cutting, it took a lot of effort and time to knock down a big tree, for him, a super fighter, it was good to be able to cut down ten large trees with a thickness of one foot a day, and it was difficult to complete one tree a day for ordinary people.
According to Wang Qiang's initial idea, in order to make a large ship that can sail smoothly in the sea without encountering typhoons, at least 120 tree trunks with a thickness of one foot are needed as the main keel, and a slightly smaller trunk and bamboo are added as the auxiliary keel and boat railing.
When he was tired, he cut down the bamboo for rest and adjustment, if Qin Lu and Xiaoxiao ran out of bamboo tubes to store fresh water, they would choose a thicker bamboo to make bamboo tubes, there is no limit to fresh water storage, the more the better. He clearly told the two women that water comes first, food is attached, as long as the food caught that day has half a day's remaining food, they will stop hunting, bamboo tube water, once the fresh water is exhausted, it will not be so simple to find fresh water on a desert island.
Although the crisis was approaching step by step, Qin Lu and Xiaoxiao's laughter still rang in his ears from time to time.
Are they really that happy? Whether it is an encouragement to himself or a pleasure in suffering, Wang Qiang knows that from the day he set foot on the desert island, he has become the only support of these two women, this time, he can't let his beloved women down no matter what, he will take them safely out of this dangerous desert island at sea no matter what.
At noon, the sun shone on both sides of the mountain stream, Qin Lu and Xiaoxiao were roasting food, sitting on the rocks and you fiddling with the fire, because of the tall trees on both sides, the sun here was only for a short three or two hours, they were bathed in the sun and laughed.
"Lao Wang, it's time to eat!" Xiaoxiao shouted into the distance.
"Well, come over right away, you two eat first."
Wang Qiang had already cut the bottom of the tree in front of him into three inches with a flying knife, got up and tried to push it with both hands, the trunk creaked, and he did not fall, so he sat down and continued to work.
The breeze gradually rose, the forest rattled, and everything was in turmoil.
Wang Qiang got up abruptly and listened to the forest.
After listening for a while, he flew his knife into his sleeve, turned around and walked forward quickly, without saying more, he grabbed Qin Lu and Xiaoxiao, who were eating grilled fish, with two arms, jumped into the cave behind the waterfall.
The waterfall is no longer a waterfall, and the width of the water is no more than a meter wide.
"What's wrong?" Qin Lu and Xiaoxiao asked at the same time.
Wang Qiang put down the two women, stretched out his hand to make a boo, and pointed outside the cave.
A terrifyingly large long-bodied monster snaked out of the forest, its whole body was red and purple, and it came to the fire that Qin Lu and Xiaoxiao had raised, its triangular head held high, and its mouth spit out red letters with two long forks from time to time, and two daunting eyes looked around.
"That snake centipede, what is it going to do?" Xiaoxiao couldn't help but ask.
