Howard Island.

Li Yichen and Qin Xiaoyue finished breakfast, tidied up the table, washed the tableware, and sat under the eaves to rest.

It's not even ten o'clock, and there's still more than an hour before the tide drops.

If you stay on Fuhua Island for a long time, you will have a drawback, that is, as soon as you rest, you will wander.

At this moment, Li Yichen and Qin Xiaoyue both had the same daze expressions, and the courtyard was quiet.

After a while, Li Yichen stood up and walked to the tool room.

Idle is also idle, chopping wood.

Chopping out the firewood for the afternoon and evening will save you a lot of time when cooking.

Last week, Li Yichen went back after chopping firewood, his arm was sore for two days, and he felt that his arm was a lot thicker.

Before recording "The Cabin on the Island", Li Yichen felt that he was just handsome.

After recording "The Cabin on the Island", Li Yichen felt that he should change a lot.

One second to remember: /or

Handsome and strong.

Look at these thick, big arms, tsk.

"Huh."

Li Yichen shouted, swung his axe, and slashed the ......

"Poof......

Zhu Hongtao, who was filming beside him, couldn't help laughing.

Li Yichen glanced up at him and explained, "I just finished eating, this is just warming up." ”

In order to prevent the second axe from continuously chopping crookedly, it makes people laugh.

Li Yichen opened his mouth and called Qin Xiaoyue, who was cleaning.

"Xiaoyue, do you want to try chopping wood? It's fun. ”

"Really?"

Qin Xiaoyue walked to Li Yichen's side, a little eager to try.

She also wanted to try chopping firewood for a long time, but Li Yichen had chopped the firewood by herself before, she didn't have a chance to try, and no one taught her, it was rare that she had free time now, she must experience it.

"What am I going to do now?"

Qin Xiaoyue's mood was a little excited.

Li Yichen took off the gloves he was wearing and handed them to Qin Xiaoyue, pressing his hand down.

"Take it easy, put on the gloves first, and I'll teach you later, it's not difficult."

"Okay."

Qin Xiaoyue took the gloves and put them on, looking at Li Yichen expectantly.

"Ahem......"

Li Yichen handed the axe in his hand to Qin Xiaoyue, and raised his hand behind his back, looking like a big man.

He went back after recording the show last week, and specially checked the wood-splitting strategy, and now he has solid theoretical knowledge.

"Chopping wood is a systematic project."

"There is a set of methods for the size of the stakes, the environment in which the wood is chopped, the angle and force of the wood, and the force."

As soon as Li Yichen spoke, Qin Xiaoyue was shocked, she was holding an axe, her mouth was slightly open, and she listened carefully to Li Yichen's speech.

“…… After talking about the size of the stake and the environment of chopping firewood, I will focus on the angle and strength of chopping wood. ”

"Hah..."

Zhu Hongtao, the photographer next to him, yawned.

Seeing Li Yichen glaring at him, Zhu Hongtao said with a big grin: "I'm sorry." ”

One doesn't feel the sincerity of the apology.

After warning Zhu Hongtao, who didn't listen carefully, Li Yichen turned his head and continued to teach Qin Xiaoyue the skills of chopping wood.

"There is an old saying in the countryside, called 'chopping firewood does not follow the pattern, tired woodcutter', which means that when chopping wood, it is easy to split it with an axe in the direction of the log texture."

While teaching, Li Yichen picked up a piece of log and pointed out the wood grain on it to Qin Xiaoyue.

"I see...... In other words, as long as the grain is split, the log will become two petals! ”

Qin Xiaoyue suddenly realized that she had learned a small trick that she couldn't usually use.

Li Yichen nodded in affirmation: "That's right, the understanding is very correct." ”

He took the axe in Qin Xiaoyue's hand again and began to demonstrate the correct posture to her.

"Another point is also very important, when we chop wood, we must first raise the axe high above the back of the head, and then chop forward, we can use the inertia of the axe to easily split the log, the greater the initial impact of the lower axe, the easier it is to split."

"I see, Brother Yichen, can I start now?"

Qin Xiaoyue was a little impatient.

Li Yichen handed her the axe again and advised: "Be careful, safety is the most important thing." ”

After saying that, he took two steps back.

Qin Xiaoyue grabbed the handle of the axe, aimed the axe at the wood grain, took a deep breath, slowly lifted the axe to the back of her head, and slashed it hard.

Before Li Yichen saw the result, he knew that Qin Xiaoyue would definitely be crooked.

opened his mouth and comforted: "It's okay, the first time you miss, it's normal......"

"Smack"

The axe in Qin Xiaoyue's hand fell, accurately slashing the wood grain, and the log broke into two petals.

"It's normal...... Well done! ”

Li Yichen swallowed the second half of his sentence and applauded.

"Haha, it's so funny, I feel like I didn't have to use much effort to split it."

Qin Xiaoyue successfully split the log for the first time, smiled very happily, put down the axe and walked over to high-five Li Yichen.

"Brother Yichen, you taught you so well, I understood it at once."

"Hehe......"

Li Yichen put one hand behind his back and gestured with scissors to Zhu Hongtao, signaling the program team to remember to cut out this section later.

"Hahaha......"

Except for Qin Xiaoyue and Li Yichen, everyone burst into laughter.

Qin Xiaoyue chopped firewood for a few minutes, she was a petite girl after all, and after the freshness passed, she quickly felt that her arm was sore.

Li Yichen took the axe in her hand and drove Qin Xiaoyue, who was standing next to him and wanted to watch him chop wood, back to continue cleaning.

He felt that letting Qin Xiaoyue stand by and watch would definitely affect his strength.

After chopping firewood, I rested for a while, nearly eleven o'clock.

Li Yichen and Qin Xiaoyue changed into rain boots, each carrying a bucket, carrying a fishing net, and walked in the direction of the big pillow.

This was the first time they had seen the original appearance of the big pillow after the tide had fallen, and the wet beach was dotted with countless strange rocks of all sizes.

Sand and rocky blocks divide the entire beach into large and small puddles.

If you look at the past, you can see some seafood such as kelp, shells, and conch that have been left on the beach.

Li Yichen's eyes lit up, and he hurriedly ran over to pick up the kelp closest to him.

It's a good thing, you can make a cold salad with a little processing, you can also cook soup, and if you have more, you can even dry and store it, and then take it out and soak it when you want to eat it.

Kelp pork rib soup is a traditional dish, delicious and nutritious.

Nourish essence and blood.

Calcium supplementation lowers blood pressure.

It's a pity they don't have ribs......

Li Yichen recognized the reality and did not continue to imagine.

If they had known about this place earlier last week, they wouldn't have had to drink cabbage soup and turnip soup all at once.

Life can always surprise people inadvertently.

I picked up two eggs in the morning and the kelp again at noon.

Li Yichen feels that their luck will be good this week.

He flipped over a shell, empty ......

Pick up a conch and shake it dry, it's also empty......

Li Yichen was not discouraged, because of these things, there are many more on the beach.

Qin Xiaoyue also followed Li Yichen's example, picked up a few slippery kelp, and didn't know where to find a small branch and poke at the crack under a rock.

"I just saw a big crab hiding in it."

Qin Xiaoyue competed with the crabs in the cracks of the rocks, one didn't dare to stretch out his hand, the other couldn't hide, and one person and one crab seemed to be able to confront each other for a year.

Li Yichen let go and let Qin Xiaoyue play, and after turning over the shells for a while, he found that they were all empty, so he gave up and began to check the small puddles one by one.

According to the old village chief, there may be fish and shrimp in the puddle, and if you are lucky, there may even be moray eels.

If they were lucky enough to catch a fish or two, they would have a good lunch at noon.

He has been talking about sweet and sour fish for a long time, starting from "The Cabin in the Woods", and a whole season has passed.

Although Qin Xiaoyue caught two fish last week, they were too small, and the big fish that the old village chief and his wife gave could be used as sweet and sour fish, but it was taken back by Wang Gaoming.

If you can't eat sweet and sour fish on the island, it will be too much.

Li Yichen became serious, as if he wanted to see through the puddle.

"It doesn't seem to work, you have to turn over the stones."

Li Yichen woke up, those fish, shrimp and crabs must have been hiding under the stones.

The rocks in the puddle were large and small, the small rocks could be easily picked up with one hand, and the large rocks, he carried them with all his might, but they did not move at all.

After some exploration and practice, Li Yichen finally understood that there was nothing under the small rocks.

It seems that the fish, shrimp and crabs in the sea are not stupid.

Next, Li Yichen only chose to turn over the medium stones that he could lift.

"Hey......"

Li Yichen exerted his strength to turn over the first few rocks, and finally saw the crab hidden in the sand under the water.

Li Yichen stretched out his finger to Zhu Hongtao and asked him to take a close-up.

"It looks like a blue crab, but it's too small, forget it, let's let it go."

Li Yichen raised his foot and gently kicked the little blue crab to make it escape, but the little blue crab remained motionless, as if he was pretending to be dead.

"Drama spirit, ......"

Li Yichen smiled, stopped pretending to be dead little blue crab, and continued to turn over the stones.

They had limited time, only a little and a half, and when the tide began to rise, they had to leave, and it would be too dangerous to stay on the beach, and there was no need to do so.

In addition to Li Yichen, there is also Qin Xiaoyue on this beach, as well as more than a dozen staff members of the program team, plus three photographers.

Everyone's safety is paramount.

Li Yichen always remembered the words that director Jiang Xingteng had repeatedly emphasized before.

There was nothing to be found in the small puddle, but there were a lot of small fish and shrimp in the big puddle, but they were all too small, Li Yichen just pointed out the materials for the photographer and did not touch them.

More than half an hour passed quickly, and except for a few kelps that they had just picked up, Li Yichen and Qin Xiaoyue found nothing.

"Wow, I'm a little out of energy......"

Li Yichen straightened his back and wailed, turning over stones is also heavy physical work, he just chopped firewood for more than half an hour.

"Whew...... The next piece is definitely there! ”

Li Yichen rested for more than ten seconds, encouraged himself, and bent down again and began to continue turning over the stones.

After a few more minutes, Li Yichen finally found a big blue crab and excitedly reached over to grab it.

"Ah......h

The big blue crab resisted and pinched Li Yichen's fingers.

Li Yichen shook off the big blue crab in pain.

"Puff"

The big blue crab didn't know where he was thrown by Li Yichen, and disappeared, leaving only a crab claw in his hand.

"It's a pity...... But it's better to have crab claws than nothing......"

Li Yichen comforted himself, broke the crab claws clamped on his gloves, threw them into the bucket, took off his gloves and checked his fingers, no big problem, then put on his gloves and continued to turn over the stones.

After a few more minutes, Li Yichen finally flipped over a big blue crab again, this time he learned to be obedient, he didn't stretch out his hand indiscriminately, but grabbed the angle of the big blue crab's buttocks, quickly grabbed it and threw it into the bucket.

Add one to the catch.

"Yay~"

Li Yichen finally smiled.

Crab fried rice and crab soup are all very fragrant.

"Brother Yichen, did you catch anything?"

Qin Xiaoyue finally gave up fighting wits and courage with the big blue crab she found and came to Li Yichen's side.

"I've caught a crab, and I'm ready to add vegetables for lunch."

"yes, that's great."

After last week's recording, Qin Xiaoyue has now put her expectations on the floor, so although there is only one crab, it is also worth being happy.

"We're going to leave in about half an hour, you go pick up shells and conches and the like, and if you find big crabs or big fish, call me."

Time was running out, and Li Yichen began to arrange tasks for Qin Xiaoyue.

"Okay." Qin Xiaoyue pointed in the direction she came over and said, "I used to have a big crab over there......"

Li Yichen shook his head: "Forget it, such a large rock, the two of us can't lift it together." ”

"Okay......"

Qin Xiaoyue and Li Yichen separated and began to pick up shells.

A few minutes later, Qin Xiaoyue suddenly shouted: "Moray eel, Brother Yichen, I saw a moray eel!" ”

"Where, where?!"

Li Yichen hurriedly ran to Qin Xiaoyue.

Finally, are they finally transited?!

Qin Xiaoyue did not wait for Li Yichen quietly, but took her fishing net and kept trying in the puddle, hoping to catch the moray eel.

It's just that moray eels are unusually cunning, quickly shuttling around the rocks to dodge.

By the time Li Yichen trotted to the big puddle where Qin Xiaoyue found the moray eel, the water around her had already been muddyed.

"I don't know where I went...... Gone......"

Qin Xiaoyue stopped, constantly searching: "Ah, here and here!" Under this stone, it's like a snake......"

As soon as Li Yichen stretched out the net, the moray eel burrowed into another stone.

"It turned out to be here...... Ran away again......"

"Got into it again......"

"Here, here!"

"Is it gone again?"

On the beach, various exclamations from Li Yichen and Qin Xiaoyue sounded.

For the moray eel, the two of them tossed back and forth in this big puddle for almost half an hour.

"I must catch it today, if I don't catch it, I won't go home!"

Li Yichen put down his cruel words, and the movement of turning over the stones was faster.

"That's right, it can't run here, you have to catch it!"

Qin Xiaoyue was also angered by this cunning moray eel.

At half past twelve o'clock in the afternoon, the tide began to rise......

Li Yichen and Qin Xiaoyue still didn't catch the moray eel in the end.

"Forget it, moray eels aren't tasty......"

Li Yichen swallowed his saliva, and finally persuaded Qin Xiaoyue, who was about to go mad.

I didn't expect that Qin Xiaoyue, who was weak and afraid of life when she met at the beginning, would also have this unexpected side.

It made Li Yichen a little impressed.
