Section 1010 Search for food

Leaving the clearing in the middle of the forest, Li Jingyuan did not take Jessica, Xiuying and Xu Hyun directly to the beach, but turned around in the forest first.

There must be a lot of things to eat in the sea, such as shellfish and fish. However, in order to get food from the sea, it is necessary to go into the water, which is still a little difficult for the three girls.

It's not that so-young, Seo Hyun and Jessica can't swim, but they just 'can't 'do it', and they can't do it yet.

If you want to go into the sea to touch the shells, you can't do it if you don't have good swimming skills. It is important to know that this is not a swimming pool, because the coastline is irregular and there are undulating reefs on the bottom of the sea, so there will be some undercurrents under the water surface.

The undercurrent may not be turbulent and will not have any effect on those who are good swimmers, but for Jessica, the three who are just 'swimmers', the impact is greater. Their skills are not yet skilled enough to cope with such currents.

Even if you go into the water, you may not be able to touch anything from the bottom of the sea, not to mention the danger that may occur. With this in mind, Li Jingyuan did not take the three of them directly to the beach.

Moreover, searching for food in the forest is also a must-do.

In addition to filling your stomach, nutrition is also important. If you just eat seafood, you may not be able to do it day by day, but if you want to eat it for a week, it will be a little too long. Sailors sailing at sea are a good example, why do crew members who have been sailing at sea for a long time have to eat some fruits or vegetables? It is not because eating seafood alone will cause nutritional imbalance, which will eventually lead to the appearance of sepsis.

The same thing. If you don't add something that contains vitamins or sugar, it is very likely that the girl's physical condition will be problematic. Although a short period of one week is not enough to develop sepsis. But the discomfort is certain. Even if he was prepared, Li Jingyuan still felt that it was necessary to search the following on the island first to see if there was anything that could be used as a 'spice'.

Maybe some people want to say, if you lack vitamins, shouldn't you just take some pills? This kind of stuff is always carried around, even if it's only a small bottle, it should last for a week, right?

Yes, yes. But that was a little less sincere. Since you have come to "The Law of the Jungle", you must try to adhere to the principle of 'wild', even if there are pills. It's best not to use it either.

Li Jingyuan took the girls into the forest and explained his thoughts to them. After Li Jingyuan's order, Jessica and the three of them also raised their spirits and carefully observed the surrounding situation.

“OPPA。 What's that?? There is nothing wrong with the saying that there are many people and there is a lot of power. If it was just Li Jingyuan who came to search alone, he might not really be able to find it, but now that there are three more girls to help, what he missed and didn't see in the past was still discovered.

Following Xu Xian's raised arm to look over, in a dense leaf, Li Jingyuan found a few cyan fruits. The shape of the fruit is very familiar, and it looks a little like an orange.

"That's ....... Orange? After glancing at it, Li Jingyuan muttered uncertainly. In a strange place, after all. Li Jingyuan can't guarantee that it must be an orange, maybe it's just something that looks more like it but can't be eaten at all.

"Let's get it down first." He found a branch from the neighborhood and held it up to test the height, and at the same time, Li Jingyuan saw several other fruits of similar shape but red color not far from the green fruits.

It's not red, it's orange-red, and when he saw these fruits, Li Jingyuan had a bottom. It turns out that the fruits just now are oranges, but they are not ripe yet, so they look a little weird, and the ones found now are the fruits after ripening.

"Look at it, don't wait for me to knock down the fruit, but you can't find it." After admonishing the three girls, Li Jingyuan raised the pole and swept towards the fruits hanging on the branches. After a few pours, the fruit fell from the branches.

"Here~!" I was very excited to run to the landing point, rummaging in the dwarf grass for a while, Xiuying lifted three round fruits and shouted excitedly.

Jessica and Seo Hyun also leaned forward excitedly, each of the three girls holding a fruit in their hands, and the joy of the harvest made their faces smile very happily.

"OPPA, shall we try one?" In the end, he has the name of 'God of Food', and after taking the fruit and looking at it for a while, Xiuying couldn't wait to make this suggestion.

"Well, let's try it." Although it has been determined that this is an orange, I am not afraid of 10,000 just in case. Li Jingyuan also felt the need to try it first. Not only out of curiosity, but also out of caution, it would be a shame to take back what you can't eat and give treasure to others.

After taking the fruit from Xiuying's hand, Li Jingyuan peeled off the top layer of skin, and after seeing the flesh inside, several girls couldn't help but marvel.

"What is this??" The color of the flesh is very abnormal, not the orange flesh that Li Jingyuan expected, but a very strange red. Some of them are like the color of red wine, and some of them are like the color of blood clotting, in short, not only will you not have an appetite after reading it, but it will also make you a little scared.

"I don't know what to do." When Li Jingyuan saw the flesh of this color, he had already concluded that this thing was an orange just now, and his idea was a little shaken.

Since it's strange, be careful. Breaking open a petal of fruit, Li Jingyuan first sniffed the smell, and then squeezed out a little bit of the juice and dripped it onto the back of his hand.

"OPPA, what are you doing here?" Li Jingyuan's cautious movements made the girls a little incomprehensible, and Jessica couldn't help but ask curiously.

"After encountering the fruit of the unknown way, you must not eat it casually." Jessica's question was heard. Li Jingyuan took the opportunity to teach these girls a lesson: "Some things may look delicious, but they are very likely to be poisonous." To distinguish these poisonous fruits, before tasting. We're going to have to do some prevention. ”

"First of all, squeeze out a little juice and drip it on your skin. Wait for 10 minutes, if there is redness, swelling or other abnormalities, it means that it is toxic and must be given up immediately. ”

"If there is no abnormality on the skin, you can move on to the next step. A little juice can be applied to the lips. Equally. If there is no abnormality on the lips, the next thing is the tongue, and the last thing is to swallow. ”

"Something to see in the wild. Be very careful, otherwise it will be dangerous. Do you know the truth? While doing it cautiously and explaining to a few girls, Li Jingyuan's attitude at this time was very serious. So the three girls didn't dare to mess around. They all listened to his words in their hearts.

After waiting for a while, the juice that dripped on the skin did not cause an allergic reaction, and Li Jingyuan followed the steps he just said for the next step of the test. After several rounds of testing, he finally came to the conclusion that this thing was an edible fruit.

Of course, before giving it to the girls, Li Jingyuan was not completely relieved, so he still asked the guide who accompanied the team.

"This thing was called Blood Orange." After getting an answer. Li Jingyuan finally reassured. As he muttered, he divided the orange in his hand into several portions. It was handed over to a few girls: "Try it, the guide said that the things are very good." ”

After listening to Li Jingyuan's words, Xiuying first put the orange in her mouth, and after chewing it a few times, the girl's face changed dramatically.

"Phew~~! Phew~! Not only Xiuying, but Seo Hyun and Jessica were also busy spitting out the flesh in their mouths, complaining while spitting: "What is this~!" Why does it taste so weird~! It's sour, astringent, and a little bitter, can this thing really be eaten? ”

Seeing that the expressions of several people were so strange, the guide who had just sworn to pat his chest as a guarantee was also a little bottomless, and after asking Jessica for a clove of orange and chewing it in his mouth a few times, he couldn't help but make the same action.

"I promise this thing is a blood orange, but I don't know why it's so unpalatable, maybe it's not ripe." Zhiludao's action of spitting out the flesh made the girls suspicious, and the guide was also a little helpless, guessing and giving a reason.

"I think I guessed why." It is impossible for a guide to lie, and there is no need to lie. Li Jingyuan started from this point of view, and after thinking for a while, he said something that could help the guide relieve the siege.

Under the gaze of everyone, Li Jingyuan began to explain: "I don't know if you have heard the idiom of 'South Orange and North Mandarin'?" Haven't you heard of it? Well, let's use Halla Orange as an example. ”

"Oranges are very demanding on the climate and environment, for example, the seeds of 'Halla oranges' are planted in Gangwon-do, because the climate and soil are very different, and the fruits that are harvested after the last harvest are definitely not as delicious as 'Halla oranges'."

"I think the reason why this blood orange tastes so bad is because of the same reason. After all, this is an island, and the climate is certainly different from that in the orchard, so it is not difficult to understand the different taste of the fruit. ”

After listening to Li Jingyuan's words, the guide also nodded, indicating that he agreed with his statement.

The girls showed a look of disappointment, especially Xiuying, who was a little angry and wanted to throw away the two fruits that had not been peeled directly.

"Don't~!" Fortunately, Li Jingyuan's sharp eyes saw Xiuying's gesture of wanting to throw, and he rushed to the front to stop him.

"OPPA, what's the use of this thing if you don't throw it away? With such a strange taste, how can anyone want to eat it? I didn't understand why Li Jingyuan would stop him, so Xiuying asked in surprise.

"You, you~, it's something that can be eaten, so let's put it away first." Shaking his head, Li Jingyuan sighed lightly, and didn't explain too much, because he understood very well that Xiuying just didn't understand, and believed that after a few days of 'wild', she wouldn't have such thoughts.

Although she didn't know much about Li Jingyuan's approach, Xiuying didn't continue to object, just a few fruits, and now she doesn't think it's very important, so naturally she won't be entangled in this matter for too long.

After putting away the mutated blood orange, several people continued to search forward. It probably took more than an hour. Li Jingyuan came out of the forest with three girls. It turned out that the area of this island was not very large, and it was only an hour. They had already penetrated the entire forest to the other side of the island.

"This is on the other side??" Jessica was slightly surprised to see the sea.

"What's wrong?"

"No, I just think it's a shame. Is the forest only that big? Is it all we can find that is the unpalatable oranges? ”

"Ugh." Hearing Jessica's reminder, Xiuying came back to her senses, and after thinking back to the search process just now, she discovered the preciousness of those blood oranges for the first time.

"Zhilu said, why didn't I let you throw away those oranges?" I saw the thoughtful expression on Su-young's face. Li Jingyuan knew that this girl had opened her mind, so he walked over and patted her shoulder with a smile.

"Yes, hehe." I scratched my head in embarrassment. Xiuying also knew that she was indeed a little reckless just now: "OPPA, I'm sorry, I won't do that in the future." ”

"That's right." Nodding, Li Jingyuan was very satisfied with Xiuying's current attitude. I looked at the sea in front of me. Then he turned his head again to look at the intersection that had just come out of the woods. Li Jingyuan beckoned to the three girls: "Okay, let's go back, this time we will go another way, I hope we can meet something that can be eaten again." ”

The island is not long, and if you take a little detour into the forest, it will be a new road.

Maybe it was because Xiuying was very sincere when she reflected just now, which made God feel very satisfied. So, in the process of returning. She made a new discovery.

"OPPA, look over there. Those are coconut trees, right? "You can't see the iconic canopy of the coconut tree when you walk in the woods, but the trunk of the coconut tree is just as distinctive. After seeing it from a distance, Xiuying couldn't help but pull Li Jingyuan's arm and shouted excitedly.

"That's right." Seeing the coconut tree, Li Jingyuan was also very excited. Coconut is a good thing, juice can quench thirst, pulp can be eaten, and even coconut shells are just as useful.

When he got closer, Li Jingyuan found that this was a coconut grove, although the interval between the trees was relatively large, and it looked a little sparse, but the scope of this forest was relatively large. As a rough estimate, there are at least 100 coconut trees here.

"Hehe, there's a coconut to eat. Wait, children, I'll pick some coconuts for you. Looking up at the coconut knot on the top of the tree, Li Jingyuan came to the bottom of a coconut tree with more fruits, rubbed his hands and prepared to climb up.

"Ah~!!!! What is that~!! Just before Li Jingyuan was about to go up the tree, Jessica suddenly screamed loudly, shouting and pointing at something on the trunk with her finger, looking very panicked.

Looking in the direction of Jessica's finger, Suyoung and Seo Hyun also shouted, obviously frightened as well.

On the trunk of the coconut tree, about five meters above the ground, there was a black whirring guy. A carapace that looked like a thick one, with thick arthrops clinging to the trunk of a tree, resembled a large shellfish bug.

was frightened by the reaction of the three girls, and then Li Jingyuan also saw the 'monster' on the trunk. After being stunned for a while, he showed a very excited smile.

"Ha Luha, there is such a thing here? What a stroke of luck. ”

In the eyes of the three girls, that black whirring thing is too scary, and it is too late to dodge, of course, they can't understand what Li Jingyuan would say 'lucky'.

"OPPA, what's that?" Listening to Li Jingyuan's words, he knew that he must know what was on the trunk. Although she hated the appearance of the thing, she still felt very curious, so Jessica couldn't help but ask Li Jingyuan again.

"It's called coconut crab, and I've always eaten coconut for a living, and the meat of that thing is better than ordinary crabs, and it's a rare delicacy." He was already very lucky to have coconuts, but now that he saw coconut crabs, Li Jingyuan was even more excited. In his previous life, when he watched "The Law of the Jungle", he had always wanted to try this thing, and now that the opportunity was in front of him, it was no wonder that he was so excited.

"OPPA, be careful, that thing looks like a powerful thing, don't get hurt." Looking at Li Jingyuan rushing up the tree, he soon approached the coconut crab, and Jessica, who was standing under the tree, was very worried.

Li Jingyuan has already said just now that coconut crabs make a living by eating coconuts, which means that this thing has the ability to break through the thick shell of coconut. In what way? Since it's called a crab, it must be a pair of pincers.

The pliers that can clip the coconut shell, imagine that the road must be very powerful, if one is not careful, the finger is light. It is precisely because of this thought that Jessica is very worried.

"Hehe, don't worry, don't look at this thing, it's actually a look." When watching the show in his previous life, Li Jingyuan had already learned how to deal with coconut crabs, and when he agreed, he had already started to hold down the back half of the coconut crab, and with a little force, he 'picked' this big guy off the tree.

After picking the coconut crab, the coconut is not that important. Li Jingyuan slipped down the trunk of the tree first, picked up the coconut crab on the ground, and looked at it with great interest.

The girls also came around.

"Hey~!" Seeing the girls leaning over, Li Jingyuan was excited, and he had the idea of pranking again, and when a few people were not paying attention, he gave the coconut crab in his hand to them, and shouted very abruptly.

"Ah~~~~~~!!!!!!!!h (To be continued.) )
