Chapter 150: Bo Shark
PS: Thank you for the chapter gift
Even if half of the more than 150 people went out to search for food, they found a relatively limited amount of food. Chu Yunxuan knew that most of the food could only rely on him alone, and the wild boar he brought back this time was the one he traced and found, but it was impossible to be so lucky every time, not every day he could catch a wild boar.
By nightfall, most of the people had made simple huts out of strips of cloth, twigs, and palm fronds, and four or five shacks fanned out of a campfire. In this way, you can cope with the cold when the temperature plummets at night.
At this time, the food collected during the day was basically processed, and thanks to Chu Yunxuan's presence, even if he used these small fish and shrimp, he could make the feeling of a high-end restaurant.
Marine fish, shrimp shells, crab shells and kelp, and fish offal soup made with seawater, although seawater cannot be used as a source of water replenishment for the human body, salt is still necessary. Chu Yunxuan added some weeds that he had picked out before that could be used as spices, so the taste was not bad, and in this case, it was already delicious in the world.
A small portion of grilled fish, a small portion of roasted wild boar meat and a bowl of fish offal soup per person, with some wild fruits and coconut milk, are nutritious and delicious. Sitting under the shack, by the campfire, admiring the sea and the starry sky, eating this green food, it is also a unique flavor, just like experiencing the original flavor of the island, no worse than the hotel.
The delicious food and warm campfire made the passengers feel a little better, and everyone gathered around the campfire in groups to taste the food and chat. Some even took out their guitars and sang with them.
"The materials are limited, so let's just do it." Chu Yunxuan handed the food to Lan Ya, Lin Zhi and Xiao Xiao, "Well, each of you has a piece of lobster meat, there is very little lobster meat, only distributed to children and the elderly, I secretly left a small piece for you." ”
"You eat, you work hard, run around outside." Lan Ya handed the lobster meat to Chu Yunxuan with some distress.
"Yes, Yun Xuan. You're tired outside. Here. You eat. Xiao Xiao also said distressedly.
Chu Yunxuan stopped Lin Zhi, who was about to speak, and said to the three of them, "I promised your parents to take care of you, and I also have my share, which is enough to provide the calories that my body needs." It's just a jackpot. It's like a lollipop when a child is in a bad mood. So...... If you feel sorry for me, eat it. That way I'll feel a little better. ”
As he spoke, Chu Yunxuan showed his share, but it was just a small piece of lobster meat the size of a ping-pong ball less than Lan Ya's three. After Chu Yunxuan coaxed them to eat. Everyone was almost finished eating, chatting about their own life stories, and passing the evening, most of them gathered around a boy who played the guitar to relieve the tension through music.
"Yun Xuan, you can play a song too, it's so boring." Lan Ya leaned on Chu Yunxuan's shoulder and asked. Lin Zhi also pouted and said, "That's right, that guy is too amateurish in playing, and many places are out of tune." ”
Xiao Xiao made up for the most ruthless knife: "And he doesn't look as handsome as our Yunxuan." ”
Chu Yunxuan hesitated, at this time, music can really refresh people. His job is to make sure that the people of the island survive without any physical or psychological problems. Thinking so, Chu Yunxuan stood up.
"Excuse me, can I borrow your guitar?" Chu Yunxuan smiled bitterly, "My girlfriend wants to hear it too." ”
"Oh, that's good." The glasses guy handed the guitar to Chu Yunxuan, and said with an embarrassed smile, "I'm sorry, I've only been in a study class for half a year, and I'm not a professional guitarist, I just see that everyone is depressed......"
"You're welcome, you played well." Chu Yunxuan smiled kindly, then took the guitar, and Lan Ya, Lin Zhi and Xiao Xiao immediately moved to his side and sat down around him.
"What do you want to hear?" Chu Yunxuan smiled softly at Lan Ya, "Let's have the first contented guitar version first, right?" ”
"Uh-huh! Good! Lan Ya smiled happily, and Chu Yunxuan immediately put the guitar on his lap, and knew that he was professional enough by looking at the posture.
Chu Yunxuan plucked the strings, and a light and cheerful tone sounded, followed by a prelude to contentment. The guitar version is different from the piano version, the piano version plays more slowly, and it sounds a faint sadness, just like the autumn rain that adds a touch of sadness to people's hearts, but the guitar version is cheerful and gentle, warm, and pleasant.
After the song, there was a sparse applause on the side, which made people become lazy and sleepy.
"Is there anything else you'd like to hear?" Chu Yunxuan asked with a soft smile.
"Let's listen to the sea for the first time." Lin Zhi knelt on the ground and leaned over to Chu Yunxuan with a smile.
Chu Yunxuan nodded, plucked the strings again, and a few slow tunes sounded, and then he sang lightly: "Write to tell me, what color is the sea tonight, and how is the sea that accompanies you every night." Gray is not to say, blue is melancholy......"
The sound of the waves crashing and the sound of the piano and singing form a trio. Chu Yunxuan's voice was very soft and soft, and everyone became more and more drowsy when they heard it: "And you, who are wandering, ......where does your crazy heart stop?"
At the end of the song, everyone's heads became more and more groggy. Chu Yunxuan cleared his throat and said, "Let's come back to the last one." ”
"Then, I want to listen to the spiral!" Xiao Xiao leaned on Chu Yunxuan and smiled mischievously.
"Okay, I'm going to sleep when I'm done with this song." Chu Yunxuan smiled and rubbed Xiao Xiao's head, then grabbed the guitar.
After the prelude, Chu Yunxuan sang softly: "With a gorgeous appearance and brilliant lights, I am a wooden horse in this paradise, just to meet the child's dream, climb on my back and take you to soar...... I forgot the sorrow of being able to run in place, and I forgot that I could only be locked forever, no matter how I could accompany you......"
The song has a strong sense of imagery, like a slightly sad fairy tale, and the music and singing are equally light and soft, and when this song is over, everyone is ready to sleep, and some people are already asleep.
The mother who was holding her daughter smiled at Chu Yunxuan and nodded her head in thanks. So he took the sleeping child back to the hut.
"Let's go, let's go to sleep." Chu Yunxuan scratched Lan Ya's little nose.
"Hmm, hmm......" Lan Ya muttered in confusion, with Chu Yunxuan's three songs hypnotizing, most of the passengers had heavy pajamas. After Chu Yunxuan coaxed Lan Ya and the three of them to sleep, he still had to continue to be busy.
"Take care of the campfire, don't let it go out." Chu Yunxuan said to a few people who were still awake, and he paid special attention to them. These people are physically and mentally stronger, so they still have enough energy after a busy day, unlike others who are already physically and mentally exhausted. The presence of this gang of them can inspire the desire of others to survive.
"You should go to sleep too." The short-haired stewardess that Chu Yunxuan met on the plane before rolled up her sleeves and said.
Her name is Zhang Xi. He is a native of Dongzhou City. She has short and dry hair, the light makeup on her face has been removed, and her face is slightly flawed but she is still a beauty. The flight attendants are generally beauties, but Zhang Xi's personality is even stronger. That's why it's been able to survive until now.
"Thanks to you today. Again, it's to teach everyone how to find food. It's helping others build shacks again, are you tired? Zhang Xi smiled softly, "If it weren't for you." I'm afraid it's hard for anyone to make it to the rescue. ”
"It's a small case." Chu Yunxuan said with a smile, "In the past, I had to take an injured friend through the Libyan desert twice, and that time was much more tiring than now, although there was only one person, but the resources were too small, and I could only rely on eating insects to replenish my strength." ”
Zhang Xi frowned and smiled bitterly: "Bugs? Oh, my God...... I feel like we're still very happy now. So are you going to eat it raw? What does it taste like? ”
"Hmm...... I ate it raw once, it was a scorpion, and it tasted like swallowing a crab shell mixed with a big lump of snot. Chu Yunxuan couldn't help laughing, "After that, I won't eat raw insects anymore, you can fry or roast them." ”
"Oh, it's disgusting, you don't have to describe it in such detail, do you?" Zhang Xi couldn't help but complain with a bitter face, and a few more people were attracted by his story, and the retired veteran smiled: "We have eaten roasted and locusts before, and they are not bad." ”
"Well, the roasted and fried bugs taste more like glutinous rice dumplings, and they are barely acceptable. But I especially like fried bee pupae or the eggs of large carnivorous ants, which are fried and look like peanuts. Chu Yunxuan continued.
"Really? Then I'll have to try it. Zhang Xi grimaced and said.
Another American policeman also said in English after being translated by his Chinese friend: "I once rescued hostages in the wetlands of Louisiana, when we caught a crocodile, we roasted its tail, it tasted very good, just like beef, but with less fat, if you can add some oil to fry it, it will definitely be more delicious than steak." You might find it here. ”
The water source they found was a waterfall, and traces of a swamp could be seen downstream of the waterfall, and there might be amphibians such as pythons or crocodiles over there, which was too dangerous, so Chu Yunxuan didn't plan to take others over there to explore.
The crowd began to tell their stories, and it was their first night here. It's called acquaintance.
After chatting for a while, the group of mainstays formed a friendship, and immediately arranged their shifts on duty and went to sleep. But when Chu Yunxuan woke up, it was already dawn.
He instantly understood that everyone wanted him to have a good night's rest, so they didn't wake him up. He rubbed his eyes, and Lanya was sleeping soundly in his arms at this moment.
This girl seemed to be fine as long as she was by her side, and it didn't matter where she was, which made Chu Yunxuan's heart soften.
He looked at the time and found that it was more than five o'clock in the morning, so he carefully put Lan Ya down, and the little girl turned around and hugged Xiao Xiao on the other side, and Xiao Xiao was snuggled up to Lin Zhi, and the bonfire had not been extinguished at this time.
After Chu Yunxuan got up, he saw the American policeman Jem and his Huaxia friend Levi, so he greeted them and said, "Thank you for your hard work, thank you for last night." Go and get some rest, I'm going to gather you to prepare breakfast. ”
After the two of them went to rest, Chu Yunxuan summoned the people who went out to find food.
"From today onwards, you will search for food the way I say, and as for me, I will go alone and find the food that is more difficult to find." Chu Yunxuan said, raised his hand and said, "But don't worry, there won't be any danger." That is, go farther and look at it, and then look a little deeper into the sea. Hope to find more food. ”
"Really? Anyway you be careful, if you get hurt. Passengers may be a little uneasy. Zhang Xi instructed.
"Don't worry, I don't dare to get hurt, otherwise those three little girls in my family won't toss me to death." Chu Yunxuan smiled bitterly.
Another young rich man immediately asked, "Which of them is your girlfriend?" ”
This rich and handsome man is worthy of the name, extremely excellent in all aspects, and surviving in the wild is an activity he often participates in. Chu Yunxuan replied: "That little angel who looks like a half-breed, but if you want to chase the other two, I can remind you that they are very difficult to handle, if you are not afraid of being hit and have no hope of survival, you can try." ”
"Wow, it's terrifying......" The rich man suddenly said with some fear.
"Then go ahead. As I said yesterday. Watch your step. Chu Yunxuan explained.
With so many people, every meal was a war for those of them looking for food. Fortunately, with Chu Yunxuan here, he can bring some surprises to everyone every time he comes back, not to mention that he can find food for seven people alone.
"That's pretty much it." Chu Yunxuan wiped the water from his face and sighed. Throw what your clothes hold on the beach. Two large prawns. Three octopuses. In his hand, he also dragged two round tuna more than a meter long.
"How did you get this stuff?" Zhang Xi asked in disbelief. Most of the others just found some wild fruit and some wild meat like hares and squirrels, but there was a group that found a lot of sweet potatoes.
The team that fetches water happened to come back with fresh water with empty coconuts and bottles and cans, Chu Yunxuan observed the amount of water and replied, "Experience." More patience, more daring experimentation. Of course, I don't want you to try. ”
The sixty-year-old man grabbed the two octopuses and sighed: "Oh, octopuses are hard to find, they are very good at hiding their bodies, and even change color, how did you catch them?" Or two. ”
"I put a jar on the bottom of the sea yesterday, and now I see them and climb into them myself." Chu Yunxuan said with a smile, "I have a simple and delicious method, directly roast the octopus on the fire, and then dip it in seawater to eat, the taste is particularly fresh." ”
As a result, each person had a small portion of tuna and octopus jerky, which was served with grilled fish and fruits, which was also a nutritious meal. Everyone enjoyed the rare breakfast time and discussed when help would arrive.
Lan Ya, Lin Zhi and Xiao Xiao still enjoy the privilege, and each has an octopus whisker on their plates. Of course, they also know in their hearts how difficult this meal is.
"Yun Xuan, come, you can eat half of it too." Lan Ya came to Chu Yunxuan's side and handed over the octopus whiskers.
An octopus is no more than a squid, with only eight tentacles, but it does have more weight.
Chu Yunxuan sighed, knowing that it was difficult to refuse, so he smiled and said, "You feed me with your mouth?" ”
Lan Ya's face turned red, and she said slightly angrily: "Okay, you don't know what the situation is now...... Just feed it by hand. ”
"Okay." Chu Yunxuan pretended to be frustrated, ate the half of the octopus whiskers, and then held Lan Ya's plain hand and kissed the back of her hand. Xiao Xiao behind him patted Chu Yunxuan's shoulder, and when he looked back, Xiao Xiao was holding the octopus whisker in his mouth, motioning for Chu Yunxuan to eat it. He said embarrassedly: "Okay, you can eat it yourself." ”
Lin Zhi leaned on his shoulder, stuffed half an octopus whisker into his mouth and said, "Yun Xuan, accompany the three of us to take a bath in the afternoon, we need someone to take the wind." ”
They dug a small pond down the waterfall that could be used for bathing, and some brought soap. The weather here is hot and humid most of the time, but there are so many people that you have to stagger the time to pass.
"Please, it's so hot, I'm slimy, I'm embarrassed to hold you at night." Lanya pleaded.
"Well, that's good. Of course I'm going, there must be a lot of people peeking at my girls taking a shower. Chu Yunxuan joked that after breakfast, everyone took a break and planned to go out to find lunch. And Chu Yunxuan didn't stop, and began to boil up something.
Everyone came to his side and was a little puzzled, and Wang Qiying, a retired veteran, asked, "Are you boiling oil?" ”
The iron pot, which was bent from the wreckage of the plane, was filled with chunks of fat from the fish it had caught before.
"That's right, the fat from these fish is boiled into fish oil, which can be used to fry meat and fish steaks and things like that." Chu Yunxuan replied, "Although you are trapped on a desert island, you still have to find a way to improve your living standards." ”
"Oh-" Everyone was stunned for a while, and Chu Yunxuan breathed a sigh of relief and said: "Okay, let it settle for a few hours, and then pour the oil on it into the bottle for later use, and dig a pit for the wreckage inside to bury it, so as not to attract wild beasts." ”
Just like at breakfast, Chu Yunxuan did not participate in the other teams, but intended to move freely.
"Yun Xuan, what are you looking at?" Seeing Chu Yunxuan looking at the sea, Lan Ya put her arm around him and asked.
"I think I've seen sharks in the ocean a little farther away." Chu Yunxuan pointed to the sea area behind the plane and said.
"Hey! The fisherman will be fine, right?! Doesn't blood attract sharks! Lan Ya couldn't help but be surprised.
"That's right. And from the size of the fins, it is estimated that it should be a bull shark that is more than two meters old. It's dangerous......" Chu Yunxuan frowned and said, continuing to stare at the far sea, he could see that the fins were approaching this side.
Chu Yunxuan didn't have time to think about it, and shouted to the people in the water: "Hey, come ashore quickly!" There's a shark coming! ”
These words immediately aroused a panic in the crowd, and the people in the water swam to the shore like crazy, but at this time there were still people diving underwater to find food, Chu Yunxuan didn't have time to think about it, grabbed the sea cucumber caught on the side, quickly slashed the sea cucumber with a knife, and then plunged into the water.
"I'm ...... It turned out to be a great white shark. Chu Yunxuan took a deep breath, dived under the water and barely opened his eyes to look. But the figure under the fins of the fish is huge, and it is more than four meters at a glance!
Great white sharks swim into shallow waters rarely, but they do occur. Presumably because they are fishing here a lot today, the smell of blood attracts great white sharks. The great white shark was attracted by the sea cucumber in his hand, and shook its head and tail towards him. Rao is Chu Yunxuan, and he couldn't help but feel a chill in the face of the invisible oppressive force of the Great White Shark.
The whole body is black, only the belly is white, the mouth is slightly open, you can see two rows of sharp teeth, the gums and mask are full of reddish bloodstains, and you can also see some prey residues, and the round black eyes are dull and indifferent, full of murderous aura. It quickly locked on Chu Yunxuan, and its two small eyes stared at him deadly.
This guy was extremely fast, and a few swinging tails rushed in front of Chu Yunxuan.
At this time, a gray membrane covers the eyeball, making it look like a dead fish. Chu Yunxuan knew that this bloodthirsty monster would tear its prey to pieces by shaking its head violently, and then quickly inhale the seawater to swallow the fragments of its prey, and in order to protect its eyes, it would cover its eyes with this protective film. His eyes widened and he thought to himself, "It's coming!" ”
Sure enough, the next moment, the great white shark opened its mouth wide, and with a violent tail swing, it pounced on Chu Yunxuan like a cannonball. Chu Yunxuan turned on the bullet time, stretched out his hands and pushed on the shark's upper and lower jaws when the shark bit over, pushed himself away with the help of the reaction force, and then used the buoyancy of the water to deftly climb onto the back of the great white shark and hold the shark's fins......
The people on the shore watched uneasily as the water continued to stir up a large splash, and the shark's fins scurried quickly, and then gradually disappeared into the water, but the waves continued. When it all finally quieted down, large blood stains spread in the water.
"No......" Lan Ya was stunned on the spot, her expression seemed to have fallen even the sky.
The other passengers were similar to her, they were able to get to this point all because of Chu Yunxuan's encouragement and guidance, if Chu Yunxuan died in the belly of the fish, it not only meant that they could not continue to fish in the sea, but most importantly, they had no spiritual support.
Another wave stirred up, this time much smaller. Chu Yunxuan gasped violently, wiped his face, and then slowly swam towards the shore. Everyone kept shouting on the shore to let him go ashore quickly, but Chu Yunxuan's speed was extremely slow, which made everyone anxious. When Chu Yunxuan gradually came to the shallow sea area, everyone realized that he was actually dragging a huge shark behind him.
But when he entered the shallow water area, without the help of buoyancy, Chu Yunxuan could not drag this behemoth weighing more than a ton, and everyone on the shore still looked at him blankly, and suddenly said angrily: "Come and help a few people!" This thing weighs a ton! Anyway, do anyone want to eat fresh shark fin and fragrant fried fish steak? (To be continued......)
