Episode 4: Beach Adventure!
It was night, Cheng Fei was alone, lying quietly on the bed made of coconut leaves, very hungry, he only ate some coconut meat and drank some coconut water for dinner, obviously, this was not enough to replenish his body consumption, the strong hunger constantly invaded his cranial nerves, so that he could not sleep at all.
There were no lights, the cave was pitch black, and it was almost impossible to see five fingers, and outside the cave, the howling sea breeze, like a wild beast, brought an unbearable cold.
Hunger, darkness, cold......... In the night, it seems that countless Sen Sen malice is constantly invading, but the most unbearable thing is the fear that comes from the depths of my heart!
Fear is not gratuitous, Cheng Fei's fear stems from his fear of his unknown situation!
He was afraid that he would not be able to survive twenty-one days on this desert island, and he was even more afraid that after twenty-one days, he would not be able to return home, which was just a parallel world, even if it was 95 percent similar to his native world, it was not his original world after all....... Family, lovers, friends, and even his career, all his concerns are the will to support his efforts to survive, but at the same time, they are also the source of his fear.
Subconsciously, he grabbed the woodcutter in his hand, which was his only weapon, and he didn't dare to put it down even if he was sleeping, as if, only in this way, he would be able to gain enough security to resist fear.
Time passed minute by minute in torment, Cheng Fei didn't even know when he fell asleep, but he clearly knew that he was woken up by hunger.
After a night's rest, his physical strength was somewhat restored, and at the same time, he was even hungrier.
Food, he needs food, food other than coconut meat, food that can really give him energy, otherwise, his body will be getting weaker and weaker from hunger.
After opening a coconut and barely replenishing some nutrients, Cheng Fei then embarked on a journey to find food, although this was definitely not an easy thing for him, he had no choice.
The morning sun is very warm, shining on the body, warm, dispelling the cold that invades the body at night, if this is the beginning of luck, Cheng Fei hopes that he can be lucky today.
Barefoot, on the wet beach, Cheng Fei walked forward with the sun on his back, looking for it on the beach while walking.
On either side of him, there are lush mountains and forests on one side, and the vast sea on the other, both of which contain abundant food, but unfortunately, his only remaining reason tells him that neither the sea nor the mountains and forests can be easily set foot in now, and he can only forage on the relatively safe beach.
Perhaps, his luck today was really good, and he didn't go far before he found a huge seashell.
Yes, he's sure it's definitely a giant seashell. It was buried in the sand, and only a small part was exposed, but this small part was the size of two palms of an adult, so you can imagine how huge this seashell must be.
Cheng Fei was extremely surprised, and hurriedly squatted down, put his hands together, and picked up the surrounding sand, and soon, a seashell the size of a basin appeared in front of his eyes.
This is a very beautiful seashell, the shell is crystal white, with dark blue stripes, without any messy spots, but it is a little less vibrant.
Cheng Fei suddenly had a bad premonition in his heart, because, under normal circumstances, such a large seashell should not appear on the beach, and when he picked up this huge seashell, it proved this even more.
It's too light!
It stands to reason that such a large seashell is twenty or thirty pounds, but the weight of the seashell he found is much lighter than expected.
Putting the seashells on the beach, Cheng Fei didn't even use force, just broke it lightly, and opened the shell, and sure enough, the mussel meat inside had already rotted, mixed with the sand, and exuded a fishy smell.
Previously, the stench was blocked by the tightly sealed shells, but now, the shells have been opened, and there is no longer any concealment, and the stench naturally overflows and spreads straight to the mouth and nose.
"Damn it!"
With a loud scolding, Cheng Fei stood up and immediately kicked out, directly kicking the dead seashell over, and the rotten flesh and sand and other things in it suddenly fell to the ground, and the stench completely overflowed in the air, and the smell was extremely unpleasant.
Feeling as if he had done something stupid, Cheng Fei was about to leave, but he didn't take a few steps, but he suddenly stopped again, because, at this time, he had a flash of inspiration, and suddenly remembered that the huge seashell that had died might be able to come in handy.
Alone on this desert island, he is short of tools, so he must use everything around him that can be used, such as this dead seashell, its two shells, can be used as containers!
Well, although the smell was unpleasant, after a little hesitation, Cheng Fei still turned back, he was going to take the shells to the water to wash them, and then put them in the sun to dry, so that he could get two very good containers.
Unexpectedly, just as he picked up the shell, a surprise appeared.
A few bits of golden light flickered, reflecting the sunlight, shining out from under the shell, almost blinding Cheng Fei's titanium alloy dog eyes, and those golden lights mixed with the carrion were a few huge golden pearls!
The unexpected discovery made Cheng Fei feel like he had been doped, and he suddenly came to his senses. The rotten mussel flesh and the unpleasant smell didn't seem to be a problem anymore, and he divided it by two to clean up a few golden pearls.
There are six in total, of different sizes, among them, there are two smaller, but the diameter is more than 10 millimeters, three medium, the diameter is about 20 millimeters, as for the largest one, it is larger than the medium three, the diameter is about 30 millimeters, in the pearl world, it is definitely a big man!
You must know that the formation of natural pearls is not easy, let alone a large pearl with a diameter of 30 millimeters? Compared with ordinary white pearls, the value of gold pearls is much more expensive, let alone such a large one? Moreover, it is worth mentioning that these six gold pearls, whether it is luster or roundness, are enough to be called high-quality.
"This is a real treasure!"
Cheng Fei exclaimed, and then carefully put the six golden pearls into his pocket, if this thing could be brought home, it would definitely make him a windfall.
Therefore, although these six golden pearls could not solve the problem of hunger, Cheng Fei was still extremely happy, and even when he cleaned the shells against the smell, his face was still full of smiles.
Placing the shells on the high ground of the beach to dry, Cheng Fei continued his foraging journey, although he didn't know what would be on the island in the sea, but it was certain that there would definitely be something on the beach that would allow him to tide over the difficulties temporarily.
Today may really be his lucky day, and it wasn't long before he found some small holes in a sandy beach.
This is a good sign.
At night, when the sea is at high tide, some marine life will always wash on the shore, and some of these marine life will be buried under the sand.
For example, in these small holes discovered by Cheng Fei, there are generally some shellfish or arthropods inhabited in the holes, such as seashells, crabs, etc., as long as the holes are dug up, you can get a bumper harvest.
Squatting down, Cheng Fei picked a small hole that was more pleasing to the eye and excavated, the moist sand was very soft, and it was easy to dig it up, revealing something hidden in the depths.
It was a shellfish about half the size of a palm, pale brown in color, oval.
"It's ......... Clams?!"
If it was anything else, Cheng Fei really didn't necessarily recognize it, but the clam was a relatively common shellfish creature, he had dug it when he was a child, and he had eaten a lot, so he naturally recognized it.
This thing is delicious, rich in protein, fat, carbohydrates, iron, calcium, phosphorus, iodine, vitamins, amino acids and taurine and other ingredients, low calorie, high protein, less fat, for many people, it is really a high-quality and inexpensive seafood product.......;
Anyway, this huge shipwreck is his own collection site, and collecting clams is not a difficult thing for him, but the difficult thing is that he can enjoy this seafood feast in front of him without fire.........
