Chapter 780 Hope(1/2)
Finally, when the sun was high in the sky, Xie Yu, who had already used sea sand mud as a temporary sunscreen, looked at a half-finished front windshield wall and couldn't bear the heat, so he had to stop work early.
At this time, there was no water dripping out from under the coconut rope.
Xie Yu carefully moved the water filled with most of the coconut shells under the coconut tree.
Take a sip carefully. Although it tastes a little salty, it is definitely clear water. It quenches your thirst!
Water resources were so precious that Xie Yu did not dare to take a big sip, so he took a few sips to quench his thirst.
Xie Yu focused on the coconut crab again, hesitated, and then decomposed it.
Just like yesterday, after slicing the crab meat, place it on the stone and use the sun and sea breeze to "ripen" it.
Xie Yu figured out that the best way to prevent food from spoiling is to eat it, and in the current environment, only if there is enough food in the stomach can immunity be improved and avoid getting sick.
On an island where there is no cure or medicine, if you get sick, you will undoubtedly be waiting for death. Xie Yu doesn't want to do this.
Lunch was shrimp crackers with fresh seaweed, and the drink was salty water. I was still very satisfied.
I was originally going to take a nap, because the sun felt more intense today than yesterday. For Xie Yu, whose skin was slightly sunburned, working in the direct sun was not a good choice.
Just seeing the rock shelter halfway up the mountain and many coconut branches scattered under the coconut trees, Xie Yu quickly had an idea.
Xie Yu was also impressed by Xie Yu, who had seen village elders weaving various living utensils out of sorghum stalks and wattle sticks when he was young.
Although coconut branches are not a good choice, there is still no problem in weaving them into antique wooden windows and doors.
As soon as the sun began to set, Xie Yu had already knitted two small wooden windows and what was barely a wooden door.
At this time, when continuing to build the front windshield, Xie Yu needs to completely build it, leaving two holes behind.
Just follow Pan Jinlian's example and hang up wooden windows and doors.
Anyway, the weather is not that cold now. As long as it can block the attack of the sea breeze and keep the small space of five or six square meters under Tiaoyan at a certain temperature.
Sure enough, the front windshield was built, and after careful cleaning, the ground was covered with a layer of coconut branches and leaves. At night, the wooden door was covered with wooden doors.
With the howling sea breeze, although the temperature in the shelter has still dropped, it is already much stronger than yesterday.
Not only that, Xie Yu was finally able to lie back on a chair, using a stone as a pillow and a work jacket as a bedding, and spent a fairly full night.
However, after I woke up, I ate coconuts and drank too much coconut water, and finally started to lose weight.
Xie Yu knew that the work of making fire should be put on the agenda.
First of all, Xie Yu thought of the classic method of drilling wood to make fire. Unfortunately, after working hard for a day, his hands were almost numb, and only black edges were produced, but no sparks were seen.
Xie Yu thought it might be because the tools were not good enough, and the fire-making materials were too wet.
On the second day after lighting the fire, I improved the fire-making tools and added the fire-making materials that had been drying out all day yesterday. Although there was black smoke, there were still no sparks, which was very annoying.
On the third day of making a fire, Xie Yu tried to use sunlight to create a fire.
Unfortunately, I searched all over the island and couldn't find any usable convex mirrors or transparent plastic bags that can be filled with water to make temporary convex mirrors.
I got two large lobsters unexpectedly, but unfortunately Xie Yu's appetite was not good either.
Just to survive, I barely swallowed the shrimp crackers.
On the fourth day of lighting the fire, Xie Yu saw no hope. After drinking the Yanqing water, he had no choice but to drink coconut juice again. Of course, he continued to lose weight.
When the weak Xie Yu was lying on the stone, he accidentally fumbled for the paper money, supermarket receipts and coins on his body, and suddenly had an idea.
After fixing the coin with a branch, he hit the coin hard on the stone and sure enough sparks appeared, slowly igniting the supermarket receipt. Then Xie Yuji carefully placed the burning supermarket receipt on a dry branch.
First there was thick smoke, then there were flames...
Looking at the fire and thinking about the hard work these days, Xie Yu burst into tears.
After immediately going out to collect firewood, I caught a large coconut crab and lobster, and immediately put them on the fire to roast.
And using coconut shells, coconut branches and labor protection gloves dipped in seawater as cooling equipment, we began to make a device for extracting fresh water from seawater.
Watching the fresh water dripping out of the outlet, taking a bite of the grilled lobster and coconut crab, you are filled with happiness.
However, the happiness had not lasted for a while. The sea breeze outside seemed to be stronger. Before Xie Yu could react, the temporary wooden door was immediately blown open.
"This is... rain..."
Due to the humidity mixed with the sea breeze and the faint thunder and lightning visible on the distant sea, Xie Yu knew that a storm at sea was coming.
Thinking of this, Xie Yu quickly moved the stones that had been prepared near the stone selection and started to lay them.
Protect the source of fire!
Unfortunately, after one night, the storm got stronger and stronger. Due to the lack of wood and the leaky front windshield, the source of the fire was still not saved.
It just allowed Xie Yu to grill two unknown sea fish and lobster, and a lot of rain brought Xie Yu plenty of fresh water.
After a tiring night, the storm finally passed in the early morning, allowing Xie Yu to take a nap.
It was only for a while, because it was a good time to collect fresh water, and Xie Yu did not dare to delay.
Just after leaving the shelter, Xie Yu vaguely saw something floating on the coast.
With a move in his heart, Xie Yu quickly reached the shore and picked up a box, but the box was written in foreign languages.
When Xie Yu was working, he spent some time in a factory. This factory was engaged in exporting goods, so it felt like an international post office package.
Thinking of this, Xie Yu suddenly became happy. Maybe he could get clues for help from these packages.
Thinking of this, Xie Yu planned to move the parcels still in the sea to safety, and even if there were no clues, they might rely on these parcels to save his life.
I just did it as soon as I thought of it. To be honest, I didn't pay attention to how many parcels there were. I just remembered that I couldn't waste any of them, so I ran back and forth to carry them.
I ran again. Although my mouth was a little dry, I could only endure the sea water that would kill me if I drank it. There was also a big package, which I fished out.
"I'll go, I'll go..."
"He's a dead man... Calm down these things, calm down these things."
There's something wrong with this dead man. Is his hair dyed?
Slowly turning this man over, mother, he turned out to be a foreigner, a middle-aged foreign man with blond hair. To be honest, I had only seen him from a distance in Haidao City. I had never interacted with foreign students and tourists.
Pulling up to the coast and looking more clearly, Xie Yu discovered that this guy should be a pilot.
The head is half-suspended with a flying helmet that can be used as a pilot in the future. Why do you say that!
He also wore a leather jacket and leather trousers, but on the back of the leather jacket, there were also written several English abbreviations of "Beautiful Country". Xie Yu happened to know these letters. "Beautiful Country" belonged to an international federal express company.
So, your location is between your own country and the beautiful country?
Depressed, I really didn’t know it was the elder brother who was making such a joke on me.
Xie Yu soon discovered that the cause of the pilot's death was that a long iron piece was inserted into his abdomen, and he died.
Holding back his nausea, he wrapped one end of the iron piece with his clothes and pulled out the iron piece from his abdomen with all his strength.
Although sad, Xie Yu knew that this thing could be sharpened into a knife, allowing him to bid farewell to the Stone Age.
In the end, Xie Yu took off all his clothes and boots, including his underwear. This was probably not the time to have any scruples. Survival came first.
After several days of hard work, Xie Yu has truly become a big fan of Mr. Bei and Mr. De.
To be honest, in this environment, having a knife can save your life in danger. You never saw Mr. Pei without a knife that time.
Push the body back into the sea, and find a tree to dry the clothes and other debris.
Although the sun is shining brightly, Xie Yu still needs to collect more parcels before long. One more parcel may save his life.
This is the summary of many years of being an orphan. Work hard now and have less trouble later!
Walking along the coast with a banana leaf on his head, he found a few more parcels. When he searched again, he saw another long parcel at the junction of a stone reef. Xie Yu murmured to himself, "No way!"
When I walked in, I saw that it was indeed a dead person again, but this person must have some money. He was wearing a life jacket and a suit. He was actually soaked through, but it could be seen that the fabric was of high quality.
I didn’t want to think about it that much, so let’s pick it up. As expected, he was a rich man. He had a lot of gold jewelry and a gold watch. Unfortunately, the mirror was broken and water got in.
Take them all away, take them all away, including the underwear. This man is taller than the pilot, almost 1.9 meters tall. They have a standard figure. They are foreigners after all. They like to exercise, but they are the same when hanging up, and they take up more space.
.
Xie Yu, who is only a little over 1.7 meters tall, has no problem wearing their clothes and shoes, whether they are big or small, and who knows how long he will stay on this desert island.
Look at this rich man again. He should have drowned, but he still drowned despite wearing a life-saving vest. He is unlucky!
Like the pilot, he started hanging his clothes on trees to dry, but he had a lot of bits and pieces on him, including a gold necklace, a gold ring, and a gold pipe. He was really a rich man.
We use gold pipes for smoking. By the way, gold pipes. Don’t you need a lighter for smoking?
I quickly looked for it, and sure enough, I found a lighter. When I turned it on, there were sparks but no fire. It must have been flooded. I opened it and saw that it was an old-fashioned kerosene lighter. No wonder it had flooded it.
Nowadays, lighters use butane gas. I didn’t expect to meet retro enthusiasts. I put my things away and put on the man’s life jacket in a suit to expand the search area.
He continued to look for the parcel until the sun was about to set. When he couldn't find it, Xie Yu reluctantly gave up.
I took off all the wet clothes and touched the pilot clothes on the branches. They were already dry.
It was actually an old-fashioned cotton trousers and jacket. Xie Yu didn't mind and put it on directly. The sea breeze was blowing, and it was quite warm.
After warming up, in order to prevent accidents, Xie Yu planned to transport the parcels and all the collected items upwards to the shelter. This was the safest way.
Just do it as you say, first get the clothes and shoes, then carry the parcels, and wait until they are all transferred. The sun has basically set. Fortunately, the moon and stars are out today, and they are quite bright.
To be continued...
