Chapter 45: The Island
"Okay, then let's go to the island to rest, it's not far from here, there are a lot of forests over there, and the island is quite cool."
Speaking of the island, Gu Jingyun suddenly remembered that place.
The small island is an isolated island not far from Changshui Village, across the water from Changshui Village.
Looking out to sea from her yard, she could see the island clearly when the weather was nice.
If the weather is foggy, mist will rise on the sea, enveloping the whole island, like a cloud veil and fog, adding a touch of mystery to the island, like a fairy mountain on the sea.
The whole island is about four or five square kilometers in size, and the vegetation on the island is verdant, and there are many species of seabirds that inhabit it.
The island is surrounded by sandy beaches, the water is not deep, and the sand on the beach is soft.
Stopping the fishing boat in shallow water, Gu Jianping and Chen Boyang dragged the fishing boat towards the beach for another distance, and only stopped when they were sure that the boat would not be swept away by the waves.
After eating what they brought, Gu Jianping and Chen Boyang found a shade and planned to take a nap.
The island is cool, especially under the shade of the trees, and the sea breeze blows, making people drowsy.
Gu Jingyun is not sleepy, on the contrary, she is full of energy now.
She misses this place where she played as a child, and when she was a child, Gu Jianping often took her and her brothers to play here.
In the past, she lived in poverty, and there were a lot of wild plantain and other fruits on the island, and her father would pick them to satisfy her cravings.
After so many years, she has eaten a lot of things and seen a lot of scenery, but she is no longer as sweet and satisfied as she remembered at the beginning.
Grab the camera, and she's ready to walk around the island.
The island is surrounded by sandy beaches, golden sand, turquoise waters and verdant forests, and now it is the height of summer, the sun is shining, if no one says that this is a famous tropical island abroad.
If you go deep into the forest, you will find that the vegetation in the belt is flourishing, and the birds in the forest are constantly singing, indicating that the ecological environment of this small island has been well protected.
Not only did she see a few plantain trees, but she also found a few wild pineapples.
This wild pineapple is different from what is usually sold in the market, and it looks very similar to a fruit called Sakya fruit. It can only eat a small part of the center, and it can't eat more, because if you eat too much, it will be poisoned.
After searching for a long time, Gu Jingyun found a relatively low wild pineapple tree, on which grew a yellow wild pineapple, which was not very tall, which was exactly what she could reach.
Because the leaves of this tree are so sharp, if you are not careful, you can cut your hands.
Carefully chopping off a wild pineapple with a knife, she removed the outer skin of the wild pineapple and took a bite.
Well, it's sweet.
Gu Jingyun narrowed his eyes slightly, I haven't eaten this thing for a long time, and it's still the taste in my memory!
This wild pineapple is not sold outside, and there are few artificial cultivations, and it is generally only wild in tropical and subtropical coastal areas.
The one in her hand tastes similar to the pineapple outside. Probably because of the abundant sun, the sugar content of this wild pineapple is even higher.
After another round around the four circles, Gu Jingyun picked a few wild pineapples and returned to the beach.
Seeing that her father and Uncle Chen were still sleeping, she didn't come close to disturb them, anyway, it was still early, so she quietly slipped to the beach.
