Zhou Shucheng is indeed a great character, and the atmosphere on the cruise ship has eased under his persuasion and arrangement. He was responsible for collecting materials and building ships, Li Chaoyang was in charge of ingredients, and Hu Jun led people to boil seawater to collect fresh water.

Before dawn, many people got up, and everyone's eyes were confused and anxious, like headless flies doing some useless things.

Some people lit candles on the bow of the ship and repeatedly bowed down to the god of the sea, praying for salvation from the god of the sea.

He even wrote the name of Su Marie and worshipped her as a god.

There are also people who carry fishing nets and fish aimlessly in the sea.

More people stood motionless like zombies, watching, their expressions dull and numb, as if they had lost their souls.

They gave up, and after so many days of torment, they didn't know what to do.

It's strange to say, some time ago, the abundant fish school has completely disappeared since the storm, in order to lure the fish Li Chaoyang threw some carrion into the water, as long as anything was thrown down, it could attract a lot of fish, and there were sharks swimming around the cruise ship at any time, but today I waited for a long time and didn't see a fish.

Or the white pine forest is experienced, and soon he saw the clues, the cruise ship is now located on a flat seabed, and it is very likely to be a submarine desert, the flat seabed causes plants and corals to not be able to attach, and it is a deep sea, and there is a long-term lack of sunlight Plants cannot photosynthesize, and there are no plants and no animals.

In the long run, the seabed will become an empty submarine desert.

The scale of the submarine desert is not small at all than the scale of the terrestrial desert, and it is even much larger.

This means that they may not catch a single fish in a month.

This is a very serious problem, I didn't have anything to eat in the first place, but I didn't expect to make it worse and I couldn't catch fish.

"You can't tell anyone about this, or you'll be panicking, and you'll say that the sea has changed just after the storm, and you won't be able to catch fish for the time being." Bai Songlin whispered.

"I understand this, but what will I do in the future?" Li Chaoyang asked.

"How much does it matter to you in the future? Do you think you're a saint and you can save everyone? ”

Bai Songlin leaned on the railing with a natural expression, and he didn't frown when he said such a thing, and even gloated a little.

Li Chaoyang was stunned.

Bai Songlin felt that he had said the wrong thing, and quickly changed his words: "I mean to say how many of us think we can go back alive?" Everyone is not familiar with each other, and no one has the obligation to take care of anyone, so they should take care of themselves while protecting others. ”

After speaking, Bai Songlin smiled and left, looking at his back, Li Chaoyang was silent for a long time, Bai Songlin's implication was that he had to give up a group of people.

The supplies are far from enough to be distributed, and if they are divided equally, then everyone will have to die.

This is like the animal world, in extreme cases there must be a trade-off, an eagle couple can hatch three to five eaglets at a time, as the eaglets grow up, their needs far exceed the eagles' supply capacity, in order to raise the next generation of eagles made a choice, they will choose the strongest one to raise, the other two will be starved to death, although cruel, but the remaining one must be the best physical fitness, and will definitely be able to grow up.

The eaglet will take its experience deep in its mind, which will allow the next generation, so that the genes of the group will become stronger and stronger, and it will still soar in the heavens and the earth after millions of years.

Natural selection for the survival of the fittest is the most basic law of biological evolution.

Human beings have always lived in a hotbed of comfort, taking survival for granted, food and clothing have long been not a problem, but now this problem is in front of everyone.

Many people understand the truth, but it is difficult to make a choice.

The same people, so who to give up?

In other words, who's going to die?

This is not Li Chaoyang's final say, he does not have this power.

The only thing that can be done is to protect yourself, the white pine forest has seen through everything.

He studied biology and understood this truth better than anyone else, but the contrast between such words and the mouth of a suave scholar like him was really a bit big.

However, it is also very difficult to protect oneself as Bai Songlin said, how to protect it?

Food and water.

But once the others run out of food and water, they will rob them of their belongings in order to survive, and the scene of the night of the storm will be repeated again.

It's impossible to be alone when you're in the same boat.

The only way is still to be powerful, just like Ruan Haoyu Chengwan, relying on strength to ensure that his own materials are not robbed, and even to rob others.

The calm in front of me is just an illusion.

But Li Chaoyang couldn't do it, he didn't have the courage to pick up a knife and kill others.

Not killing may mean death, this is a dead knot, and the consequences of not being able to open it will be very serious.

"Food, where does it come from?"

Li Chaoyang muttered to himself and fell into deep thought.

The sky is gradually darkening, the remnant sun is like blood, the sea is cool and breezy, and the burning clouds on the horizon are like fluffy breads, baked brown and soft and crispy, making people salivate.

The people who had only eaten one meal for several days in a row had yellow muscles and weak feet, and they had only eaten a little bit of food today, and as for the water, they were even less pitiful, and they leaned on the railing one by one, and they didn't want to say a word.

Hu Jun was busy all day and only collected a few bottles of water, which was purely a waste of wood, but he had to continue.

This feeling is like a vegetative person in the ICU on a drip, if you don't take it, there is little hope, if you take it, you will die immediately.

Death here is not only physical, but also mental, and the boiling of water continues, which means that distilled water can still be collected, and everyone still has a way to live.

Although there are only a few bottles of water, it is not enough for everyone to take a sip, but Hu Jun is already very pleased.

"You're too inefficient, I might be able to give it a try." Bai Songlin said.

"What's the solution?"

White Pine Lin took out a blanket from behind him.

"Blankets?"

"That's right, blanket, this sea area has a large temperature difference between day and night, strong convection and abundant water vapor, we can use the blanket to make a water-absorbing sail to hang up, when the water vapor passes through the blanket, it will condense into water droplets and fall into our containers, the plants in the deserts and coasts of South America use this trick to absorb water, and the insects in the Sahara Desert also use this trick, as long as we hang the blanket tonight, we can definitely collect fresh water tomorrow morning, I believe the efficiency will not be much lower than yours."

"Really? That's great, intellectuals are just different, amazing, so what else to say, let's do it. ”

Hu Jun was overjoyed, and hurriedly beckoned others to come over to help, Li Chaoyang also came over, and he was also very happy to learn about the plan of the white pine forest, a piece of blanket was tied to the railing, and then a wire was used to connect the water bottle below, as long as there was water vapor passing through, fresh water could be collected into the water bottle.

Although it is not clear whether the method of the white pine forest is effective, the big guy is still looking forward to it and shows a smile that he has not seen for a long time.

There was a sudden cry not far away, and when everyone looked back, they saw that the old aunt who knelt down and begged Hu Jun last time knelt down in front of Zhou Shucheng, kowtowing constantly.

"Sir, please save my son and give him something to eat, he will really die if I don't eat if I am injured." The old aunt burst into tears, and Zhou Shucheng's expression was entangled, not knowing what to say.

Others also looked at Zhou Shucheng, speaking of eating and everyone was hungry, there were still people who gave out food and drink before, and after the storm, Hu Jun divided the food and drink, and Zhou Shucheng did not ask everyone to take out the food and drink after he came out, which caused many people to be empty-handed and nothing, at this time many people have not eaten or drunk for a day, tired, hungry and thirsty, and those eyes are about to glow green.

Zhou Shucheng did have something to eat, but that bit of food was his wife's last stock, and if he gave it to others, he and his wife would starve to death.

People are not sages, even Zhou Shucheng hesitated at this moment, he couldn't open this opening.

The old aunt's son Wu Xiongxiong was twisted by Ruan Hao and broke his arm, and he was beaten again, the old aunt was so anxious that she had already found many people, but everyone's answer was surprisingly unanimous, that is, they didn't either.

In desperation, she could only beg Zhou Shu to be.

Zhou Shucheng didn't open her mouth, she kept kowtowing.

"Boss, please, you are our leader, you can't leave it alone, if you don't give it to me, I'll jump down and die." As she spoke, the old aunt stood up.

This is clearly a moral kidnapping.

"You're so interesting, why don't you go to the person in charge of food, embarrassed old man, you're embarrassed?" Someone couldn't stand it anymore and said a word.

Food-minded?

The old aunt seemed to have thought of something, glanced around, ran straight to Li Chaoyang, and knelt on the deck when she came to her.

"Boss, please give me something to eat, even if it's a fish, my son is really starving to death."
