Wandering to Earth Chapter 17 Finding a Water Source
Under the hot sun, the soldiers wiped their sweat, and from time to time they were pulled by the messy branches and tripped over the stones under their feet. Dead leaves were everywhere, and occasionally some small birds flew up where they walked, and the sun sprinkled on them through the trees, which was particularly sultry, and they wished that the sun would disappear soon, but they had to continue to look for the big river in the direction of the stream.
They have traveled thousands of miles, thousands of miles, through different galaxies, through black holes, through space sandstorms, nine deaths, from such a distant galaxy, not just to find water? They must be excited in their hearts, and the temporary pain in their bodies is nothing.
After a lot of hardships, they finally walked out of the forest, found the source of the water, a line between water and sky, a sea, blue sea and blue sky, crystal clear, everyone was excited, the soldiers jumped into the sea, the long-lost freedom, jumping in the water, laughing, various postures in the water, the soldiers shouted, splashed each other with water, this happiness was only deeply experienced the moment they found it, once many things were lost, the moment they regained it, it was an indescribable sense of happiness.
Everyone was playing happily, they didn't know that 70% of the earth at that time was an ocean, since the spacecraft positioning failed, whether this strange planet was the planet that was previously positioned has become unknown, but at this moment this issue is no longer important, being able to find a water source is the happiness they want, they just want to enjoy the happiness of this moment.
Leopard immediately informed Yusen, and everyone over there was also jubilant.
Yusen's side has been unsuccessful in locating the ship's cabin, and the signal has been failing to contact the planet Karnal, which should be blocked by a black hole.
Elk also swam in the water for a while, then went ashore and sat on the beach, took out a reagent from his backpack, and used a small bottle to collect some water as a sample, and soon obtained a salinity of 35%.
Elk shouted, "Leopard, this water has a salinity of 35%, which is much lower than that of our planet Karnal, but if we drink it in large quantities, we will need to desalinate the seawater." ”
Where can Leopard take care of these data, and cope: "You collect samples first, and we'll swim for a while." ”
All the soldiers are like nectar after a long drought, and they are all playing to their heart's content.
Although the Ocean spaceship is gone, most of the advanced weapons are gone, only one safety bag and people remain, and the life and death of the other safety bag are still unknown, but it is a blessing in misfortune to be able to find a water source.
Elk collected some water sources and sat on the beach, looking into the distance, the sun was setting, the red sun was now very comfortable, and the seaside with no end in sight, as if everything had become better at the moment.
Elk wished it was in her hometown, but the fact that they couldn't even find their way back, and it was inevitable that they would be a little sad beyond the beautiful scenery.
The little gorilla is afraid of water, it does not dare to get too close to the sea, but it is very happy to play on the beach by the sea, and keeps digging the beach, as if there is some treasure in it, digging for a while can catch something small, quickly stuff it into its mouth. Occasionally, he would run to Elk's side and stuff one for Elk, who could tell at a glance that it was a small sea creature.
Everyone had a good time, and after their coordinates were located, some soldiers were left behind, and they were ready to make plans when they went back.
But it was getting late, so they had to pitch their tents by the beach.
Leopard secretly arranged for some soldiers to go into the forest, so that the soldiers could hunt some wild boars or other animals for dinner to satisfy the soldiers' hunger.
The bonfires were lit, and the soldiers were overjoyed, and they were going to dry and dry on the seashore.
Soon the soldiers were seen returning with a wild boar each.
"You're on a night hunt again?" When Elk saw it, she asked angrily.
"If you don't hunt, what do you eat at night? Don't make a fuss, I'm going to catch some fish in the sea for you to try. ”
"They didn't offend you, you killed like this."
"Even if I don't eat them, they will be eaten by other animals, don't make a fuss, I don't have your bodhisattva heart, the wild boar hurts me, I will eat them all, it just so happens that their meat is very fragrant."
With that, Leopard walked away, apparently not wanting to argue with Elk about this.
Leopard arranged for some soldiers to go into the water to fish, fishing was an instinct for them to eat, only to see the soldiers plunge into the sea, and soon caught a big fish, and soon many big fish were thrown up on the beach.
"Add some campfires and grill the fish." Leopard told a soldier beside him.
The soldier hurriedly picked up the fish on the beach, and the big fish kept swinging, only to see the soldier pick up a dagger, empty the internal organs of the fish in a few strokes, and scrape the scales of the fish three times and divide them by two, chop off the fish's head, and use a branch to support it on the bonfire.
In a few moments, the light of the fire was sultry, the fragrance was already in all directions, and the soldiers were dancing and swimming in the sea.
At this moment, everyone seems to have forgotten that they are in a foreign land, as if this is their new home.
Leopard brought a grilled fish and wild boar for Elk.
"Here, give you a grilled fish."
"Thank you."
"Do you eat wild boar?"
"It's better to keep it for yourself, grilled fish is enough."
Leopard thought to himself: "You eat all the fish, what can't the animals on his planet eat, this is for me, the whole world is kind to you, yes, don't eat it, the soldiers are starving to death, I don't know how cruel this world is, there will be hardship for you to eat in the future." ”
Leopard also knew that Elk didn't want to take care of herself, and said: "You have experienced too little in the world, you are a scientific researcher, you have studied biology on the planet Karnal all year round, and you rarely do anything, you can stretch out your hands for clothes, open your mouth for food, and face life and death." Like us soldiers, outside, this kind of thing is too trivial for us, if you don't eat, you will starve to death, this world is like this, the weak are eaten by the strong, maybe one day you will understand. ”
"I have also seen a lot of life and death, and I have studied a lot of living things, but I can't be like you, who hunt and kill a lot of animals that have hurt you."
"You are biased when you say this, not because they have hurt me, but because their meat is really delicious. Last time, the meat of the wolf was also eaten, but it was not delicious. ”
Leopard seemed to feel like he had said something more.
"You really eat everything."
"Look at you, I'm also upset for you, do you think they will sympathize with you if I go late?"
Elk Lu was speechless when asked, and she also knew in her heart that this was the law of nature, the law of the jungle, no wonder the leopard.
"Anyway, you're right, I'll just eat fish." Elk smiled helplessly.
The leopard playfully picked up the little orangutan.
"Little one, do you want to eat meat?" Leopard takes the freshly roasted pork and tempts the baby orangutan.
The little orangutan clapped his hands and howled as if he understood.
At this moment, the leopard fell in love with this little gorilla more, touched its head with his hand, and looked at the sea, he also had a lot of helplessness and unspeakable suffering.
