Chapter 480: Island Survival (2)
After Zhu Ping'an's demonstration, Li Shu and the little girl with the bun also picked a red azalea, removed the stamens like Zhu Ping'an, and after taking a breath, they hesitated and put the flower in their mouths.
Smelling the azalea does not have any fragrance, and when you put it in your mouth, a faint sweet and sour taste envelops the taste buds.
You can really eat it.
After the little girl chewed a flower, her eyes lit up, and then she couldn't wait to pick another azalea and put it in her mouth as she could.
Li Shu didn't eat anymore, looked at the clusters of warm rhododendrons blooming on the slope, narrowed her eyes slightly, and then said sincerely, "This flower is so beautiful." ”
Azalea, it turns out that this is the azalea.
Zhuang Shengxiao dreams of butterflies, and hopes that the emperor will trust the cuckoo in spring. Li Shu didn't remember whose codex she had read, but she remembered that it recorded that the proverb of azaleas was when she saw the rhododendrons blooming all over the mountain, that is, when the goddess of love came.
Now that the azaleas are blooming all over the hillside, has Eros arrived?
Thinking of this, Li Shu silently turned her gaze to Zhu Ping'an, and then found that a certain piece of wood was not at all incomprehensible, pouting like a pig entering a vegetable field to pick flowers, Zhu Ping'an picked about thirty flowers, and used his clothes to pick up.
Wood!
Li Shu rolled her eyes in her heart, and she was disgusted.
Zhu Ping'an picked the flowers and wrapped them in clothes, and then led Li Shu and the little girl with buns to the island. In any case, these azaleas are still edible, and it is better than nothing.
"Uncle. What are we going to do? On the way to the island with Zhu Ping'an, the little girl raised her bun face and asked.
"Find food and a place to live." Zhu Ping'an replied calmly, the first thing to solve when coming to this kind of isolated island is these two things. One is for food, the other is for living, and both are indispensable.
"I just looked for it, but I couldn't find anything to eat." The little girl said again.
Zhu Ping'an shook the azalea wrapped in his clothes, smiled and said nothing, the meaning was self-evident. The little girl with the bun blushed when she saw this, and just now she said that she didn't find anything to eat. But my uncle still found an edible rhododendron, which shows that it is not that he has no food, but that he lacks the eyes to find that he can eat. So, the little girl blushed shyly.
"Nature is very generous, and this island is lush and full of nature's bounty ingredients. You've been at home for a long time. It's normal not to understand. When I was a child, I used to go up the mountains with my father and brother, so I was familiar with the mountains and forests. Zhu Ping'an comforted.
After walking uphill, Zhu Ping'an stood still slightly, looked around for a while, and then chose a direction, leading Li Shu and the little girl with buns to continue walking.
Zhu Ping'an's ability to survive in the wild is much stronger than Li Shu and Baozi Little Girl, and he used to see Bei Ye's wilderness survival and other knowledge in modern times, and now he has accumulated a lot of experience after coming to Daming to follow Zhu's father and eldest brother up the mountain. The hands-on ability has also improved a lot, so in the face of this kind of island. Zhu Ping'an also has some confidence.
Just now, Zhu Ping'an stood on the slope and took a general look, and found that the mountain forest in one direction of this island was denser and taller than other places.
In general, river valleys are developed with streams and mountainous areas are densely vegetated. Therefore, Zhu Ping'an guessed that there might be a stream in that dense and tall mountain forest.
Fresh water is indispensable for survival on this island. Although there is no shortage of seawater around the island, the concentration of seawater is higher than the concentration of blood in human seawater, and drinking too much may cause dehydration to death, and seawater contains many other minerals, which are harmful to the human body. The current conditions are also not available for distilling seawater into fresh water.
Therefore, finding fresh water for this island is the most important.
Walking on the island, Zhu Ping'an felt a bit like Robinson Crusoe, but luckier than Robinson, he was accompanied by two girls, and sure enough, happiness comes from comparison, Zhu Ping'an smiled slightly.
"Hey, what are you laughing at?" Zhu Ping'an's smile made Li Shu roll her eyes.
"If we're lucky, we're going to find water." Zhu Ping'an naturally didn't say what he thought just now, but took the opportunity to encourage the two of them.
"Water? I just walked so far and couldn't find it. The little girl shook her head and expressed her suspicions, "Uncle just took a look, why is he sure he is going to find water." In the past, there was no water except for the grass and the woods. Did my uncle see the water? ”
Li Shu also expressed doubts about Zhu Ping'an's words, she also read it just now, just like the little girl with the bun said, except for flowers and trees, she couldn't see anything at all, Zhu Ping'an just glanced at it and chose a direction and said that she was going to find water, and she didn't believe it.
"In the direction ahead, there is a curved forest that is denser and taller than the mountain forests in other places, and generally speaking, where there is enough water, the trees will grow, and the water source of the curve is likely to be a stream." Zhu Ping'an stretched out his hand and pointed to a mountain forest in front of him, and explained with confidence and confidence.
Li Shu followed Zhu Ping'an's gaze, and sure enough, he found the difference, there was really an S-shaped curved mountain forest in front of him that was very conspicuous, and they were several heads higher than the mountains and forests in other places. Although Li Shu doesn't understand the knowledge of geography, but there is still common sense judgment, after thinking about what Zhu Ping'an said, Li Shu also believed it a little, and her eyes lit up.
It would be nice to have water, and she was very thirsty.
The little girl with the bun was still thinking about why the water source of the curve was the stream, but since the uncle and the young lady said yes, that is, so the little girl with the bun also brightened her eyes.
Zhu Ping'an led Li Shu and the little girl with the bun towards the curved mountain forest, in fact, Zhu Ping'an was not very sure that there was a stream in the S-curved mountain forest, and the higher mountain forest could also be terrain, or maybe it was an S-shaped hillside. However, Zhu Ping'an would not tell Li Shu and the little girl with this concern, the two of them finally raised hope, and they didn't want to pour a basin of cold water on them.
The island is relatively large, and the mountains and forests look close, but in fact, it is also very far away.
Li Shu walked a distance and couldn't walk, Zhu Ping'an recovered a lot of strength after eating rhododendrons, broke two branches to make two simple crutches, gave Li Shu one, and also gave a bun little girl, so that the two of them can save a lot of strength when walking in the mountains and forests, and they can walk more steadily with crutches.
Zhu Ping'an himself also broke a wooden stick as an improvised self-defense weapon, in case there were any beasts that did not have long eyes in the mountains and forests.
Before he reached the mountain forest, Zhu Ping'an found a cluster of wolf's tooth-like grass about 60 centimeters high under a tree, which was covered with white fluff and had serrated leaves. When Zhu Ping'an saw this tuft of wolf tooth grass, he was a little surprised.
This is wolf tooth grass, when I was a child, I went up the mountain and my arm was cut by gravel, Zhu's father picked this grass to apply to himself, and the bleeding was very fast, and the effect was very significant.
Li Shu's wrist was cut so big, and the strap was still oozing blood, with this wolf tooth grass, Zhu Ping'an was much more relieved.
"This is wolftooth grass, which has a good hemostatic effect. In two days, your hands will be fine. ”
Zhu Ping'an said, and then regardless of the wolftooth grass scratching his hand, he picked a section of the stem of the wolftooth grass, put the leaves in his mouth and chewed it, chewed it and applied it to the wound on Li Shu's wrist, and then carefully wrapped it for Li Shu.
"It's disgusting, it's your saliva."
Li Shu pouted and said with disgust, but a smile quietly bloomed on her face. (To be continued.) )
