Chapter 191: Survival on a Desert Island
Qin Baiting originally wanted to amuse everyone when he said this, but everyone was in a low mood now, and several girls were so frightened that their eyes were red, and no one paid attention to him at all.
On the contrary, Hua Manxi took his words and said: "Don't worry Qin Gongzi, when we go back, I'll make it for you to eat, this fresh seafood, you can make assorted seafood porridge, sweet and delicious, you can also brush the hot pot, our restaurant there has a clear soup pot, there is a red oil pot, the best to eat spicy, all kinds of seafood are cooked as soon as they are hot, with the flavor of chili, and then put it in the secret pepper sesame sauce and dip it, it is fragrant and spicy." ”
This time, Hua Manxi really moved Qin Baiting, and he raised his head and looked at Hua Manxi with a big man, and said with some grievances: "Is it really that delicious?" ”
Chen Xiuli, who was sitting next to Qin Baiting, nodded, and echoed: "It's really delicious, I just ate the dishes she cooked, so I came up with such a food festival, although the food in our Shishan County is not as luxurious and exquisite as Kyoto, but the price is common, the taste is rich, and there are many types, which will definitely make your trip worthwhile." ”
As soon as Chen Xiuli spoke, Hua Manxi remembered the injury on his head, and hurriedly said, "Danyun, did you bring the wound medicine?" The back of Mr. Chen's head was knocked out, and I bandaged him. ”
"Yes." Danyun took out a small bottle of ointment from his arms, as well as a small piece of white gauze, as soon as this ointment was opened, Hua Manxi recognized it, this was the ointment that Xu Jinfei applied to his face at that time.
She stood up and almost reached the top of the cave, so she could only bend down slightly, pull Chen Xiuli's hair apart, and then apply ointment and gauze to him.
After she was bandaged, Hua Manxi sat down on the stone on the ground and returned the ointment to Danyun, but bumped into his worried eyes.
"Danyun, you, what kind of eyes are you?" Hua Manxi was taken aback, then understood again, and said with a red face, "Don't think about it, Lord Chen is in my heart, just like Da Yang, he is my eldest brother, and I only have your son-in-law in my heart, really!" ”
Being taken a fancy to her heart, Danyun was also a little shy, took the ointment, put it back in the hidden bag in her arms, lowered her head, and began to eat the steamed crabs and prawns without saying a word.
"Hey, little chef, you are a good guard, and you are very cautious in your work, and you know how to take these things down, otherwise we won't have anything to eat now." When Qin Baiting heard Hua Manxi say this, he was interested and teased.
"Well, he's really nice, and my fiancé sent him to protect me." Hua Manxi said truthfully.
Hearing the words of his fiancé, Chen Xiuli's eyes dimmed, and Qin Baiting keenly caught it.
He looked at Chen Xiuli, who had peeled the crab and shrimp on the side and handed them to Hua Manxi, and then looked at Hua Manxi, who handed Chen Xiuli fresh water, and his eyes were full of interest.
Chen Xiuli has had the best relationship with him since he was a child, and he didn't know what he was thinking, so he glanced at him fiercely, and Qin Baiting stopped.
Although the future is unknown, but should eat or eat, sleep or sleep, a large pot of seafood steamed out, also eaten, everyone is tired and exhausted, fortunately Song Su and Chen Xiuli took down the drawings of the boat, and are studying where they are and where they will go tomorrow under the firewood.
Everyone else also fell asleep hastily against the cave wall, and Danyun's duty was to protect Hua Manxi, almost not leaving her, and she didn't close her eyes all night.
Fortunately, the night was calm, and there were no wild beasts to invade.
Finally stayed up until dawn, Hua Manxi was the first to wake up, she woke up Chen Xiuli, let Danyun rest, and then removed the planks and wood at the entrance of the cave and walked outside.
Last night it was dark, and I didn't have time to look at the island, but now it was bright and there was some sunshine, and Hua Manxi climbed up a big rock and looked around the small island.
This island is not big, surrounded by water, probably because it is surrounded by the sea on all sides, the temperature is relatively warm, there is not the slightest trace of snow on the trees, but the trees are verdant, there are many flowers of various colors in full bloom, you can hear the birdsong, look at it from a distance, you can also see a waterfall, the sound of the water is faintly visible.
It's easy to have fresh water, at least not to die of thirst. Hua Manxi made up his mind.
"How?" Chen Xiuli followed behind Hua Manxi and suddenly said loudly.
"It's pretty good here, there is fresh water, there are flowers and grass, there should be a lot of prey, we brought fire, at least we don't starve to death." Hua Manxi said truthfully.
"The ship is already halfway sunk, and we can't get out." Chen Xiuli glanced at the boat that was still slowly sinking, and sighed slightly, "I can't help Xu Gongzi, he told me when he left, let me protect you well." ”
"Why can't you get out, look at what you said." Hua Manxi sneered, with a smile between his eyebrows, "Wang Shishi is at home, if you find that we haven't gone back, the brigadier will call all the fleets out to find us, let's hurry up and find some firewood, and then wet a little hay and get some smoke, so that when someone comes to look for us, they can see the smoke." ”
When Chen Xiuli heard this, he frowned slightly and said, "Your method is like wolf smoke in battle, and you haven't fought before, how did you think of it?" ”
"I thought of it with my head." Hua Manxi glanced at him, "Hurry up and call everyone up, there is fresh water there, go there to boil some water to drink, and get something to eat, no matter how bad it is, even if Wang Shishi can't find us, we have to be self-reliant and live until a boat comes." ”
"Okay." Chen Xiuli saw that Hua Manxi was not panicked at all, and his heart was shocked again, and his feelings were mixed.
Chen Xiuli turned back into the cave and woke everyone up, because Danyun had kept vigil last night, and Chen Xiuli had put on a robe for him, but he didn't wake him up.
Among so many people, Song Yan and Song Su, Qin Baiting are all military generals and have kung fu, Chen Xiuli and Shen Huai are both civil officials and have no kung fu.
So Song Yan and a few people led the way in front, Hua Manxi walked in the middle with a few girls, Chen Xiuli and Shen Huai broke off, and the group used daggers and swords to chop and chop, and walked towards the waterfall.
Luckily, the waterfall is not far from the cave, but after walking a few miles, you will see it.
Qin Baiting had never seen such a magnificent waterfall, and there was a large lake under the waterfall that could see through the bottom, and the water was so clear that he could see through the bottom. There are also many flowers blooming around the lake, white, pink, blue, purple and yellow, colorful and swaying in the wind.
"Oh my God, this season, how can there be so many flowers, even the flowers in the imperial garden, they don't bloom so vividly, and this water, even the mountain spring on Yuquan Mountain is not so clear—we shouldn't have entered the fairyland, right? That's what a peach blossom paradise, right! It's just to enter the Peach Blossom Spring! Qin Baiting was still a little emotional, and after seeing such a beautiful scenery, he actually jumped three feet high and shouted loudly.
Everyone has a love for beauty, and the group of people who were originally depressed saw such a beautiful scenery, and their mood was much more relaxed.
"It wouldn't be miserable to be buried in a place like this." Song Su made a mistake, only panicked for a moment last night, but today he was happy again, and then Qin Baiting's words.
"Who is going to die with you! It's all your fault! If you bring a boatman, where would such a thing happen? Chen Xiuya glared at Song Su complainingly, and her voice had a hint of crying, "I'm still so young, I don't want to die!" ”
"Ouch, you, why are you crying so decently? With my Master Song here, are you still afraid that we won't be able to get out of this island? I looked at the drawings with Xiuli last night, this island is not far from Shishan County, and there are often merchant ships here, so it is easy to get out. ”
"Really?" Chen Xiuya was really frightened last night, and at this time she didn't believe Song Su at all, she raised her head and looked at Chen Xiuli with tears in her eyes, and said in a dumb voice, "Big brother, is what he said true?" ”
Although Chen Xiuli has no feelings for this sister, and is even a little disgusted, but in this current situation, it is not the time to care about the past, so he can only nod: "That's right, we can go out, now everyone helps to pick up some firewood, start a fire and burn some water, Baiting, you and Song Su and Song Yan go around the neighborhood to see if there is any prey, shoot some prey, and Brother Shen and I can get some cooking smoke so that passing ships can see it." ”
Everyone had no opinion, and they all cooperated in accordance with Chen Xiuli's arrangement.
Song Qiao, Song Qiao, the two sisters and Qin Qingrong were all born in a family of military generals, and they also learned one and a half tricks since they were children, and they picked up firewood faster than the Shen sisters and Chen Xiuya.
Soon, several people picked up a pile of firewood, Hua Manxi used a fire fold to burn the fire, set up a pot, began to boil water, after the boiling water cooled, everyone scooped some and put it in their own water cylinder for later use.
After working for a while, Song Su and several people also came back, without bows and arrows, and the prey all relied on kung fu and experience, but fortunately, there were few people on this island, and these animals were not afraid of people, so it was easy to hunt.
This time, I hunted a sheep and two rabbits, which were not many, but they were enough to eat.
Hua Manxi was already handy to deal with these things, and after she cleaned the whole sheep, she asked Qin Baiting to help cut the wooden branches, set up the whole sheep, and planned to roast it over a charcoal fire.
Because there are not a lot of spices, so you can't marinate them first like you usually roast sheep, but Hua Manxi is lucky, and she even found chili peppers on this island, she used stones to crush some chili peppers, plus the salt she brought, and prepared a simple bowl of dipping sauce, planning to roast the mutton, use a dagger to slice it into thin slices, and then dip it in the dipping sauce to eat.
As for the two wild rabbits, they were also cleaned, then chopped into large pieces, first blanched once in a pot, and then raised from the pot, put the blanched rabbit meat into the pot, and began to stew the soup.
