"Who am I?"

"Where am I?"

Zhao Yunxiang opened his eyes slowly, and found that he was struggling on a beach, he was very thirsty at the moment, looking at a vast ocean, Zhao Yunxiang frowned.

He didn't know what was going on, he just knew that he seemed to have been through a lot, and he woke up and came here in a daze.

Now he had to find a water source, and after drinking some water, he was thinking hard, and he knew that if he didn't drink water, he would die!

The sea water is not drinkable, and there are no coconut trees on the beach, so you have to burrow into the dense forest......

It's been a long time......

Suddenly there was a reed swing in front of you!

"I hope there is water!" Zhao Yunxiang looked not far away, where it was bare, and no plants were growing.

You know, there are very few plants that can grow in the water, and that large barren area is probably where the water source is!

Cautiously walked towards that side, and the road did not break through the cobwebs, which was very smooth.

At last we came to the reeds, and there was nothing in the barren land, except a patch of dirt, which was full of dry cracks, and it was evident that there was water here not so long ago.

Water is an indispensable part of life, life on Earth is born in seawater, and most life is completely inseparable from water, and so are humans.

Not only can water evaporate, but it can also seep, and there is water here, and the terrain is very low, so if you dig from here, you may be able to dig up water.

"I need to get water as soon as possible!" said Zhao Yunxiang, who was not sure he would be able to dig for water, but now he had to give it a try.

The tool for digging the pit is a wooden stick, which is about the thickness of the wrist and has a sloping stubble at the end of the stick, which is very suitable for digging.

Ten minutes later......

"No...... Didn't dig a drop of water!" Zhao Yunxiang sat on the ground in disappointment.

Digging loess with a stick in the sun is a physical work, because of the heat, the coconut water has long been drunk, he is hot and sweaty, sweat flows into his eyes, stinging can only bare his teeth and close his eyes.

The devastated ground is full of potholes, some up to 30 centimeters deep, and the bottom of the pits is still dry and without any moisture.

Digging like this has no effect, and it is understandable that it is dry at first, but after digging for so long, it is still dry underneath, which means that there is no water in the soil.

"Why can anyone else dig water out of the ground?" Zhao Yunxiang left the scorching sun-baked earth and came to a shady place, where the ground was equally dry, and the soil at the roots of the trees was also dry.

"I'm so hungry, I'm so thirsty, I'm so tired...... Zhao Yunxiang is very helpless...

In this uninhabited place, it is difficult to get food and water.

At this moment, the sun was shining, sweating a lot all the way, and being exposed to the scorching sun for a long time, Zhao Yunxiang only felt that there was a flame burning in his chest.

Thirst......

Parched......

Hunger......

and so on negative state has been crushing Zhao Yunxiang's fragile nerves, in the city, you can drink water when you are thirsty, or you can moisten your lips with saliva, but after being thirsty to the extreme, you can't secrete a drop of saliva in your mouth, even if you want to moisten your lips, it's a luxury.

"I can't find water this time, how can I live?"

Zhao Yunxiang is still entangled in water, water is the cradle of life, but also the necessities of life, people can live for a week without eating, but without drinking water, it is estimated that even 4 days can not last.

There are very few coconuts on the seaside, and I don't know how long I can last on coconut water, but it is certain that if he continues to squeeze coconut water, he will only end up dying!

"I need to find water as soon as possible!" Zhao Yunxiang dragged his tired body and slowly got up, stepping on the dry sand under his feet.

In addition to the seemingly lush reeds around the forest, there are many plants growing in the distance, and one of them is a tree with huge leaves, which seems to be called the banana tree, which is a close relative of the banana tree.

There seems to be water in the middle of these trees!

"Plantain trees?"

Coming to the banana tree, Zhao Yunxiang carried the huge open leaves, which were more than 30 centimeters long and 10 centimeters wide.

The height of the plantain tree is as high as 2 meters, but unfortunately there is no plantain on it.

I watched a documentary before, when Brother De found the banana tree, he usually smashed the banana tree with his fist, and the banana tree contained a lot of water, but I don't know what is going on inside the banana tree.

Zhao Yunxiang did not learn from Brother De to punch the banana tree directly, but used the branch in his hand to test the water storage degree of the trunk, and pierced the skin of the banana tree with a dry sharp branch, and he could clearly feel that the inside of the trunk was very soft, like cotton soaked in water.

There is also water oozing out on the trunk of the banana tree, which is flowing along the trunk, during which Zhao Yunxiang tasted a few sips, the sap of the banana tree tasted sweet, and there was a faint banana smell, although it was a little astringent, but this was indeed fresh water that could be drunk.

He plans to bring this tree back, banana leaves are a good material, with this can realize the distillation of seawater method conceived by Zhao Yunxiang, the plantain tree contains a lot of water, and the plantain heart is also edible, can supplement vitamins and carbonic acid.

Pit digging trees has officially begun!

It was a bit of a struggle to dig the hole, especially since the ground was dry and full of stones, and after about 10 minutes, the roots of the plantain tree were finally wrung off, and there was still a toad in the soil of the roots.

This toad, which looked somewhat similar to a toad, looked disgusting, and if it was a frog, I believe Zhao Yunxiang would definitely catch it.

Ignoring the toad that jumped and fled for its life, Zhao Yunxiang dragged the more than 2-meter-long banana tree to the shade.

This plantain tree is a little heavy, about 40 catties, but I don't know how much plantain sap can be obtained.

On this hot day, the shade of the trees and the sun and the earth are obviously two completely different worlds, so you can take a little rest here and quench your thirst with a little plantain sap.

After continuous high-intensity work under the sun, Zhao Yunxiang had already taken several sweat showers, and the sweat flowed out again after drying, and so on, his whole body was slimy and very sour.

"I'll have to take a sea bath later!" Zhao Yunxiang fiddled with the banana trees on the ground, ready to start fetching water.

It is true that there is water in the trunk of the plantain tree, and the amount should be not small, but it is not easy to get all the water inside.

It is indeed difficult to completely extract the water from the trunk of a plantain tree, which is like bleeding an animal, and the blood of the animal that cuts the artery is gushing, but it cannot be completely drained.

Zhao Yunxiang's method of taking water from the trunk of the banana tree uses the routine of killing pigs and bloodletting in the countryside, first ...... pigs The plantain tree is hung and then the inside of the trunk is broken with branches, and the plant seems to have no major arteries, so it can only squeeze the trunk as much as possible.

Fortunately, the tree is not very tall, and there is a branch about 3 meters away, and the scattered vines are woven in three strands to make a hemp rope, and then the branch is bypassed to hang the plantain tree.

Zhao Yunxiang quickly hoisted the banana tree, he wanted to quickly release water to the plantain tree, and try what he could get after completing the task.

The plantain tree is in the air, about 40 centimeters above the ground, and the trunk of this tree, with its normal skin and soft texture, is swaying back and forth with inertia.

"Peck ...... Peck peck~!"

Zhao Yunxiang quickly pierced the trunk of the banana tree with a dry branch, and the contents of the trunk were more like sugar cane, but he didn't know if it tasted the same as sugar cane.

Due to the gravitational pull, the water in the trunk of the plantain tree flows out slowly, through a funnel of leaves prepared in advance, and flows into the bottle.

The sap of the plantain tree has a large flow of water, and its color is basically transparent yellow-green, and it looks a little sticky, mainly because it contains sugar.

One bottle was filled, and then the second bottle was replaced, and Zhao Yunxiang also took the opportunity to taste the sap of the plantain tree.
