Chapter 259: Flying Over the Island
Hearing Xiao Huang Rong's scream, Tang Xiaosheng's face was shocked, his arm was pushed to the beach, he immediately got up, and asked urgently, "Rong'er, what's wrong?" ”
"Woo woo~" Xiao Huang Rong wiped her tears with her little hands, and cried with her little mouth, "Daddy, something has bitten my foot!" ”
As soon as he heard this, Tang Xiaosheng's eyes lit up, and he immediately looked at Xiao Huang Rong's little feet, and when he looked at it, he found that there was a living creature the size of a mouse, biting Xiao Huang Rong's little toe, because the surrounding light was too dim, he couldn't see what this living creature was.
Before he had time to think about it, the internal force in Tang Xiaosheng's body turned violently, and his right finger quickly swung out, exerting the "Flame Finger" with ten successful powers, and pointed towards the living thing!
Burst!!!
After a muffled sound, the living creature fell to the ground, and it should have been killed alive by Tang Xiaosheng with "Flame Finger".
Tang Xiaosheng leaned forward, picked up the living thing, and took a closer look, only to find that the living thing that caught Xiao Huang Rong's little toe turned out to be a big crab!
"Rong'er, don't be afraid, it's a crab!" Tang Xiaosheng handed the crab he picked up to Xiao Huang Rong and said softly.
When Xiao Huang Rong heard that it was a crab, her crying suddenly stopped, because crabs are one of her favorite foods, and she has a good impression of crabs.
Xiao Huang Rong took the crab handed by Tang Xiaosheng, played with it in her hand for a while, and asked strangely, "Daddy, why does this crab want to bite my feet?" Did I eat a crab before, and it came for revenge? ”
Tang Xiaosheng smiled and said, "Don't worry, if the crabs dare to come to Rong'er for revenge, Daddy will cook them all." After speaking, he took Xiao Huang Rong into his arms, gently stroked her little toe that had just been caught by the crab with his hand, and asked with concern, "Rong'er, does your foot still hurt?" ”
Xiao Huang Rong shook her head: "It hurt just now, but it doesn't hurt now." ”
After speaking, she put the crab in her hand to the tip of her nose and sniffed it, and her eyes rolled. Suspiciously, he asked in a childish voice, "Daddy, why is this crab so hot?" And it's fragrant? ”
This crab has just been hit by Tang Xiaosheng's "Flame Finger", which is equivalent to being grilled in the fire for a minute or two, and it has basically been roasted, so it is naturally hot and fragrant.
"Daddy. Can this crab be eaten? As soon as Xiao Huang Rong smelled the aroma of crab meat, Xiao Zui suddenly became a little greedy again.
The food eaten on this desert island was not very clean, and if it wasn't for the hunger, Tang Xiaosheng and the others would not have eaten indiscriminately. Xiao Huang Rong just ate grilled fish and grilled lobster tonight. If she eats crabs again, once the digestion is not good, Tang Xiaosheng is worried that she will have a stomach, so she said: "Rong'er, the crabs can't be eaten, they are not cooked yet!" ”
When she heard that the crab couldn't be eaten, Xiao Huang Rong felt that it was not interesting to hold it in her hand, so she shook her little hand. He threw the crab on the side of the beach. Then he picked up the small socks and small shoes that he had left beside him, and put them on his feet.
Xiao Huang Rong felt that it was more comfortable to step on the beach with bare feet, so she took off her shoes and socks, but after being caught by the crab just now, she suddenly felt that it was safer to put on her shoes and socks.
After putting on shoes and socks, Xiao Huang Rong fell into Tang Xiaosheng's arms. Maybe it's because I'm too sleepy, soon. And she fell asleep.
Although Xiao Huang Rong was asleep, everyone else was still awake. It's not because I'm not sleepy. But after sleeping tonight, they don't know what to do tomorrow.
The vegetation on the island that could be used for fires has been lighted, which means that it will not be possible to start a fire on the island tomorrow. As a result, it is no longer possible for them to eat grilled fish or shrimp.
Some seafood can actually be eaten raw, and the problem of food can be solved for the time being, but the problem of drinking water is more troublesome. Although the island is surrounded by seawater, it is known that it is not drinkable. …,
Seawater contains a large number of salts and a variety of elements, many of which far exceed the hygienic standards for drinking water. People who drink seawater will not only not be able to replenish the water needed by the human body, but will enter the human body due to the excessive amount of certain elements, resulting in accelerated dehydration of the body, and finally death.
And if you don't drink water all the time, it is obviously difficult to survive. It is a matter of life and death, and Tang Xiaosheng and others naturally dare not despise it.
"Afterward, have you ever thought that the female guide would abandon us on this island?" After being silent for a long time, the little dragon girl lying next to Tang Xiaosheng asked softly.
Tang Xiaosheng shook his head, he didn't know much about the female tour guide, and said, "I don't know the way either." ”,
"Big brother, what if we can't leave here tomorrow and there is no water or fire on the island?" Guo Xiang bent her eyebrows and said a little worriedly, she also knew in her heart that if she had been trapped here, she would probably be more than lucky.
"Let's see tomorrow! The female guide may return, or we may find a boat passing by. Let's not think nonsense, get a good night's sleep first, and then be refreshed tomorrow. Tang Xiaosheng said to everyone.
After a day of tossing, everyone was actually physically and mentally exhausted, and now lying on this soft beach, the refreshing sea breeze blows by, and before you know it, everyone has fallen asleep......
……
Tweeted!
The next morning, Tang Xiaosheng was woken up by a crisp birdsong, and when he opened his eyes, he saw a flock of white seabirds flying by in the blue sky, and he realized that he was sleeping on the beach.
When Tang Xiaosheng woke up, he found that Zhao Min, Wang Yuyan, Xiao Zhao, and Guo Xiang had all woken up, and they were sitting quietly on the beach, looking at the endless blue ocean in front of them, except for Xiaolongnu and Xiao Huang Rong, who were still snuggling up to Tang Xiaosheng and were sleeping quietly.
It's just that with Tang Xiaosheng's awakening, Xiaolongnu and Xiaohuangrong also woke up one after another. When they woke up, they were fascinated by the beautiful and spectacular sea view in front of them.
Under the clear blue sky, sitting on the white sandy beach, facing the vast sea as green as jade, blowing the refreshing sea breeze, feeling the quiet and serene natural atmosphere, as if in a paradise, suddenly the whole body is comfortable, the heart is relaxed, and all the troubles will be forgotten at this moment.
It's a pity that Xiao Huang Rong's words still pulled everyone's thoughts back to reality:
"Daddy, I'm hungry!"
There is no vegetation on the island that can be used to raise the fire, so it is no longer possible to bake fish for consumption. Fortunately, some fish can be eaten raw, for example, tuna.
In order to solve the problem of hunger, Tang Xiaosheng and others went to the shallow waters of the shoals and began to catch fish that could be eaten raw. The seafood here is abundant, and in less than half an hour, everyone returns with a full load. Afterwards. Everyone sat on the beach and ate the raw fish.
After eating the raw fish, everyone wandered around the island again, hoping to find something. Pity. It was indeed a desert island, with almost nothing but rocks, and even the few green plants they had burned down last night.
The island is clearly not suitable for long-term habitation. Leaving here was an inevitable choice, so everyone went back to the beach and waited quietly, hoping that the female guide would come back and that a boat would pass by.
It's a pity that they waited from morning to afternoon. When the sun was about to set over the sea in the west, none of the things that had been hoped for had happened.
It was only at this time that Tang Xiaosheng suddenly felt that it might be time to take some action, so he said to everyone: "It's better to do this, I'll leave here first, hoping to swim to the nearby continent." Once I get to the mainland, I'll come back to save you. ”
As soon as he heard his suggestion, Zhao Min immediately vetoed: "Zhang Wuji." I won't agree to this way! You do. What is the difference between sending to death? ”…,
The island is also nearly 80 kilometers from the nearest mainland, and it is not easy to swim such a distance without any help.
In the 10km marathon, the World Champion swimmer swims in about 2 hours. If Tang Xiaosheng can maintain the speed of the world swimming champion and swim 80 kilometers in a row, it will take about 16 hours to reach the mainland.
But. This is a theoretical value in the most ideal state, in fact. It can't be that easy.
First, swim up to 80 kilometers in a row. The energy consumed is at least equivalent to the energy consumed by a person running 300 kilometers, which is almost beyond the limits of the human body. Although Tang Xiaosheng has practiced internal skills and his physical fitness is much better than ordinary people, it is also very difficult to swim 80 kilometers in one go.
What's more, the 80 km is a straight-line distance, and with no navigation equipment, the final swim is definitely more than 80 km. Although Tang Xiaosheng can use the sun or stars as directional signs, in the vast sea, as long as there is the slightest deviation in direction, he will often miss the slightest centimeter.
If the direction is deviated, the distance you need to swim can be doubled, and in the event of a storm or fog, the consequences can be imagined.
Taking a step back, the fish in this sea are not vegetarians, and if they encounter one or two sharks on the way, even if Tang Xiaosheng has the ability to reach the sky, I am afraid it will be difficult to deal with it.
Tang Xiaosheng is also very aware of these risks, but the current situation is very unoptimistic, he feels that instead of everyone staying on the island and waiting to die, it is better for him to take a risk, so he said: "This is the only way at present, I think you can give it a try." ”
Hearing this, Xiaolongnu's willow eyebrows moved slightly, and he knew that if Tang Xiaosheng was really ready to swim back to the mainland, he would be afraid of dying for a lifetime, and said: "Guo'er, if you are really ready to swim back, I will also leave with you." ”
"Brother Wuji, you can take me with you too!" Xiao Zhao immediately pleaded.
"Big brother, I'm going to leave with you too."
"Daddy, I'm going to swim back with you too!"
……
As soon as they heard that Tang Xiaosheng was going back to the mainland, everyone expressed their willingness to accompany him, although Tang Xiaosheng was very moved, he still hoped that everyone would be sensible, and said: "This is not the time to be rash. When there are more people, it is easier to have accidents. ”
Xiaolongnu understood his concerns, but still said: "Guo'er, I will go wherever you go, whether it is life or death, I don't want to be separated from you." ”
"Big brother, so am I."
"Brother Wuji, I'm the same."
"Zhang Wuji, don't want to leave alone!"
……
Seeing that everyone was willing to live and die with him, Tang Xiaosheng couldn't help but be stunned, being able to die with six women was a well-deserved death, and it was in vain to live once in the world.
At this time, Xiao Zhao reminded: "Brother Wuji, isn't there another island in the south?" Let's go over and have a look, maybe there will be something new! ”
To the south of this island, there is indeed another small island like a crescent moon, and the area of the island is relatively large. Just standing on the current island, the Crescent Island is full of steep and towering reefs, and there is no vegetation in sight, it seems to be a barren stone island, and I am afraid it is not suitable for survival.
"Zhang Wuji, I think Xiao Zhao's opinion can actually be considered, we can go to the Crescent Island in the south to have a look first." At this time, Zhao Minnu on the side analyzed, "From this direction, Crescent Island seems to be all reefs, but this does not mean that the entire Crescent Island must be full of reefs. What we see is only one side of the island, and perhaps the other side of the island is lush with vegetation. ”
After listening to Zhao Min's analysis, Tang Xiaosheng also felt that it seemed to make sense. From here, it is true that only the towering black reef of Crescent Island can be seen, and as for the situation on the south side of Crescent Island, it is all covered by the reef and cannot be seen at all. …,
If the other side of Crescent Island is not full of bare stones, but has some vegetation, the situation will be different. Because once there is lush vegetation, it can be used to raise a fire to grill food, or to distill seawater to get fresh water to drink, whether it is drinking water or eating, the two most important survival problems can be temporarily solved.
It's just that Crescent Island is about 900 meters away from the island in front of you, and the distance is not short, so how can you get there?
"Come on, why don't you let me go to Crescent Island first?" At this time, the little dragon girl suddenly proposed.
Ordinary people can only get to Crescent Island from this island by swimming or taking a sea vehicle, but the little dragon girl can use light skills to fly over.
However, it is not difficult to fly one or two hundred meters in a row with light skills, but it is very physically and mentally demanding to fly over nine hundred meters in a row. Therefore, to leap over this distance of 900 meters, it requires both excellent light work and strong internal force. If you don't do light work, I'm afraid you won't be able to tread water; The internal force is not high, and I am afraid that I will not be able to hold on to a distance of 900 meters.
Among the seven people in front of him, the people with the best light skills are Tang Xiaosheng, Xiaolongnu and Zhao Min, but Zhao Min's internal strength is relatively poor, and he will definitely not be able to last such a long distance, so the only people who can fly to the opposite Crescent Island with light skills are Tang Xiaosheng and Xiaolongnu.
"Long'er, why don't you let me come to Crescent Island?" Tang Xiaosheng said.
The little dragon girl shook her head: "If there is really vegetation on the other side of Crescent Island, all of us will have to land on Crescent Island." At that time, you will also need to escort others over, so it is better for Guo'er to stay, because your internal strength is deeper than mine. ”
Tang Xiaosheng thought about it, and had no choice but to say, "Long'er, be careful yourself." ”
"Hmm."
After the discussion, the little dragon girl came to the shore on the south side of the island, ready to fly to the crescent moon island on the opposite side with light skills. (Your support is my biggest motivation.) )
