After doing this, Ye Xuan stood by the campfire, looking at the ships in the distance, quietly waiting for the results.

In fact, now he can't do anything but wait. More than 20 nautical miles away, even the people on the boat could not see him with binoculars, and the sound could only be transmitted for a few hundred meters. So he couldn't do anything but pray that the people on board would find the smoke.

As time passed, Ye Xuan's heart was sinking little by little.

The ship at the end of the sea did not turn around, but drifted away, and finally disappeared from his vision completely.

For a moment, the air suddenly became extraordinarily quiet. Ye Xuan clasped his hands behind his head and looked at the sea in the distance in a daze, extremely disappointed in his heart.

At this moment, the mood of the audience in the live broadcast room is completely opposite to him. One by one, like a festival, they almost set off firecrackers to celebrate.

"It's embarrassing!"

"If you want to leave, if you don't exist, it's useless to skin it. ”

"You think I'm going to sympathize with you?" I almost laughed. ”

"I'm most afraid of the sudden silence in the air..."

"The patriarch is calm and optimistic. ”

"To you people who have fallen into the ground, I say... Well done. ”

"Second battalion commander, take back the Italian guns, and almost accidentally wound the friendly soldiers. ”

"The show is full of points, it's really funny. ”

"You misunderstood the patriarch, he just wanted to take a hitchhiker to Fiji for great health care, after all, there was too much to make up. ”

The greater the hope, the greater the disappointment.

That's true.

He was very depressed now, after all, if he had the opportunity to leave by boat, who would want to make a raft and go to sea?

The sea is not an inland lake, and even tens of thousands of tons of steel giants are capsized in monstrous waves, let alone a rudimentary raft. Especially now that it's the rainy season, every storm that comes is likely to be accompanied by a terrible hurricane. He will not go to sea easily until he has to, because the danger is too high.

It costs you your life at every turn!

This is also the reason why uninhabited desert islands are so terrible in the eyes of those who have been shipwrecked.

Or, they have been waiting for rescue on a desert island and have struggled to survive. Or, risk your life and go to sea for help. At this time, survival skills and willpower are not so important, and it is completely up to luck.

If you're lucky, if you stay on a desert island for two days, you'll be spotted by a ship or plane and rescued home. If you're unlucky, you'll be like Robinson's archetypal character, spending a few years, if not longer, alone on a desert island.

After a while, Ye Xuan sighed and returned to the grass shed to sit down.

"To be honest, I'm in a bad mood right now. ”

He held his head in his hands and kept rubbing his hair. After a moment, he frowned and said, "No, I have to find something to do and divert my attention." Otherwise, my bad mood will gradually turn into despair, which will affect my thinking. ”

In fact, most of the people who commit suicide on a desert island are like this. Seeing hope again and again, and being disappointed again and again, in the end, I couldn't bear this torment and ended my life in despair.

There is not enough firewood.

He had used up the firewood he had left to attract the attention of the ship, and it had rained heavily yesterday, and now the branches of the trees on the island were so wet that he couldn't even eat lunch.

Standing up, Ye Xuan took a deep breath, regained his spirits, and walked quickly towards the island.

Soon, he returned to the camp with a large pile of wet firewood in his arms, and laid it out haphazardly on the beach, and he turned again and entered the island.

The midday sun is very strong, and it only takes two or three hours for the firewood to be completely dried when it is placed on the beach.

After several trips back and forth, the firewood placed on the beach was enough for him to use for two or three days.

After doing this, Ye Xuan clapped his hands and said, "Just put the firewood here to dry, and then I need to collect as many shells as possible." When it rains, these shells help me collect a lot of fresh water. But before that, I need to make some sunscreen, otherwise the strong ultraviolet rays can sunburn me in a short time. ”

After that, he began to look for old coconuts on the beach under the coconut trees. After wandering around in the shade of the trees, I soon found an old coconut. This coconut has been on the ground for a long time, there is no coconut water in it, it is all thick coconut meat.

Sitting back under the grass shed, Ye Xuan first used his hands and mouth to peel off the skin of the old coconut, and then found the central axis and smashed it open.

Pointing to the thick, milky coconut meat in the coconut shell, he explained: "Coconut meat can not only be eaten, but also used to make sunscreen. The coconut meat that has been completely aged like this has a content of up to 24% coconut oil, which has a very good sunscreen effect. However, the saponification value of coconut oil is very high, but the refractive index is too low, which can only prevent sunburn, but not from being tanned. ”

As he spoke, he had already taken out the dagger and kept chopping the coconut flesh from the coconut shell.

"Making sunscreen from coconut, it's very simple. You just need to find a similar old coconut, and then mash the coconut meat with a wooden stick until it becomes sticky and has coconut oil oozing, and it is ready to use. ”

The method is simple, but very practical. On tropical desert islands, strong ultraviolet rays are also a threat. At this time, most of the coconut meat in the coconut shell had been completely chopped, and Ye Xuan picked up a thick wooden stick, like pounding medicine, and kept pounding the coconut meat hard.

At the same time, he continued: "Don't underestimate the ultraviolet rays here, there was once a couple who were shipwrecked in the nearby waters. They drifted at sea for a week on an inflatable raft, drinking turtle blood and their own urine until rescue arrived. But by the time they were rescued, they had been severely sunburned, and their skin had begun to fester. Even if it is cured, it will leave sequelae, and in addition to unsightly scars, the new skin is very fragile and will re-ulce if it is exposed to slightly stronger ultraviolet rays. ”

When he first came to Fiji, Ye Xuan thought that the locals were resistant to ultraviolet rays, but on the way to Kavenu Island, he learned after talking with the owner of the fishing boat that the locals would apply coconut oil every day, so they could not be afraid of sunburn.

"Bang Bang!"

Holding the wooden stick, Ye Xuan kept pounding the wooden stick like a machine.

To be honest, this method is inefficient and does not effectively extract coconut oil, but at this moment, he has no better way.

After half an hour, the coconut meat pieces were pounded into a sticky shape.

"That's natural sunscreen!"

Ye Xuan held the coconut shell in front of the camera, and the audience in the live broadcast room could clearly see through the ultra-clear picture quality that the viscous coconut meat was glowing with a layer of pale yellow oil, which was the coconut oil squeezed from it.

Grabbing a handful of sticky coconut oil, Ye Xuan evenly smeared it on his face, he wiped it very carefully, and he didn't even let go of his ears. Then there is the back of the neck and the exposed arms. After applying it, he didn't look the same, not as shiny as he had applied sunscreen, mainly because the refractive index of coconut oil was too low.

The rudimentary sunscreen made in this way will certainly not be very effective, but it will have a certain sunburn protection effect.

Putting the remaining coconut oil into the grass shed, Ye Xuan stood up and said with a smile: "Ready, let's go collect shells next!"
