The two of them take care of themselves, you and me.

Others were busy expanding the cistern.

Considering that the water used for washing clothes and vegetables is separated from the drinking water, Xu Yin divides the water flow into two streams at the bottom of the ditch, one to the right and one to the left, and injects them into two cisterns.

The cistern had to be dug deeper and a small drainage ditch was opened, so that the cistern could not be kept from running out too quickly, and it would be alive.

"Can we take a bath in the reservoir of domestic water?"

Fang PD looked at the clear groundwater, then looked at himself, dug a ditch for a while, and made a dirty face, so he wanted to jump down and take a bath.

"I want to take a shower too, I stink all over me."

"Who wouldn't want to take a bath?"

On such a hot day, I haven't taken a shower for two days, and I sweat every day, can my body not stink?

Xu Yin said: "I just dug a reservoir at the top of the mountain, and the girl will go to the mountain with me to wash." ”

"Then what should I do!" Tang Yitian heard it and said aggrievedly, "I can't climb the mountain because my foot is injured." ”

Xu Yin met her injured eyes, and said in her heart, what are you doing with me, I can't carry you up the mountain, my back only belongs to Xiao Jin.

"Two options." Xu Yin looked at her and said, "The first plan: wait for us to finish washing, and let your boyfriend carry you up the mountain to wash; The second plan: you wash here, and then it will be the men's turn when you finish washing. ”

“……”

In the end, Tang Yitian decided to wash at the foot of the mountain, mainly because she was worried that it was not safe for Gu Yihang to climb the mountain on her back, what if both of them fell?

"Brother Hang, you have to help me block it, don't let anyone else get close, but you are not allowed to turn around."

"Okay." Gu Yihang responded to her needs.

Regarding the bath, it was so allocated.

Xu Yin went back to get a change of clothes, and called Xiao Ke by the way.

When Xiao Ke heard that a water source had been found on the mountain, not only did he have a steady stream of fresh water to drink, but he could also take a bath, and his face turned red with excitement: "Xu Yin, then let's go up and take a bath now?" ”

"Well, you and Sister Fan go first, I'll wait for them. On the way up and down the mountain, we tied a strip of cloth to a stone to make a mark, and went up along the strip of cloth, and when we reached the top of the mountain, we could see the bathing pool, which was easy to find. ”

"Great!" Xiao Ke immediately went to call Aunt Fan, who took care of the logistics and supplies of the two injured captains.

When the two of them came over with a change of clothes, Xiaolu also came back with a coconut: "Sister Yin, I heard Xiao Zhao shouting that there is water, is it true?" ”

"Really. Go and get your clothes, and we'll go up the hill to bathe, and if you're thirsty, drink some water." ”

"Did you really find fresh water? That's great! That's great! Ha ha! After hearing this, I didn't worry about drinking water, but I didn't feel thirsty. Anyway, we found so many coconuts. There are a lot of coconut trees over there, and a few of them are short and thick, and if they have coconuts, I feel that I can reach them by jumping, but unfortunately none of them have coconuts. ”

The speaker has no intention, but the listener has the intention.

Xu Yin pondered: Huh? Short, stubby, like a coconut tree, but without a coconut? Could it be the West Valley coconut tree mentioned in the "Self-Rescue in the Wild" skill book?

"Let's go! Show me! ”

"Huh? Xu Yin, aren't you going to take a bath? Xiao Ke asked dumbfounded, she was still waiting for Xu Yin to go up the mountain together.

"The bath pool is not big, so many people have to wait when they go up, you go first, and I will go with the path to see the coconut trees."

"What's so nice about coconut trees?" Xiao Ke muttered in confusion.

Xu Yinxin said: If it is really the coconut trees of the West Valley, you will know how useful they are when you look back.

Xiaolu said to Xu Yin while leading her towards the dwarf and thick coconut forest.

I met Director Cheng and Deputy Director Qi who were tired and had to take a step and take three breaks.

When they heard that Xu Yin was going to see the coconut trees, the reaction of the two was the same as Xiao Ke: "Those coconut trees, not a single coconut bears fruit, what is there to look at." ”

Xu Yin is still not sure if those are the coconut trees of the West Valley, so she didn't say much, but told the two directors the good news of the discovery of fresh water.

Sure enough, as soon as the two of them heard that they had found groundwater, how could they still have the decadent state of lovelessness before, they jumped up and ran to the base camp.

"I can drink water, I can take a bath, Lao Qi, we are here to the bitterness!"

"What nonsense, hurry up!"

“……”

Xu Yin and Xiaolu looked at each other and smiled, and continued to walk forward.

"Sister Yinyin, isn't the dwarf and stubby coconut tree different from an ordinary coconut tree?"

"Hmm."

Since Xiaolu asked, Xu Yin told her:

"It doesn't bear coconuts, and the trunk is short and thick, and I suspect it's the West Valley coconut tree, which I've seen in books, and that's what characterizes it."

"But what is the use of a coconut tree that does not bear coconuts?"

Xu Yin laughed: "You got the point, the coconut tree in Xigu is the most unserious coconut tree, it doesn't produce coconut and rice." ”

"Ahh Xiaolu whispered, "Is it the rice we eat?" ”

"Not really, but you should have eaten it, and even if you haven't eaten it, you must have heard that the sago in the sago is made of the starch in the coconut palm, and the locals like to call this kind of tree 'rice tree' in the area where sago is abundant."

“……”

Xiaolu was stunned.

The look of surprise was maintained until the coconut grove.

Seeing that she was still stunned, Xu Yin smiled and checked the coconut tree by herself.

The height of these trees is uneven, from three to five meters short and ten meters high, but they are all the same thick, and they all look like diesel barrels. There was not a single coconut fruit on the tree, and the trunk was almost full of thorns.

After the characteristics were matched one by one, Xu Yin breathed a sigh of relief: Fortunately! Haven't bloomed yet!

The West Valley coconut tree has a lifespan of only one or two decades and only blooms once in its lifetime.

On the eve of flowering, it can be said that the highlight of the trunk's life is the peak of starch storage.

But as it blooms, this starch is absorbed by the trunk until it is squeezed dry, and the tree dies, leaving only an empty trunk.

In this way, I was lucky to find the coconut trees in the West Valley, which are still not blooming.

I don't know if it's the credit of the [Prosperous Disaster] skill.

"Xiaolu, you stand with me."

"Huh? Oh! ”

The trail trotted to Xu Yin's side, and as soon as he stood still, he heard a "click", and Xu Yin kicked one of the thickest West Valley coconut trees.

“……”

Even buy Karma!

I heard Xiao Zhao say just now that Sister Yin kicked a boulder that required several people to hug down the mountain, and she felt that Xiao Zhao's description was too exaggerated, but she didn't expect that Sister Yin really had this strength.

Xiao Lu showed adoring star eyes: "Sister, your strength is inevitably too great, right?" Have you been retracting your strength before? ”

Xu Yin smiled and said nothing: Permanent divine power understands?

"Come on! Drag it back and there's work to do tomorrow! ”

She was going to split the trunk and remove the starch.

Anyway, now that there is no shortage of water, the starch can be precipitated and dried, and it can be used as rice noodles as a staple food.
