Chapter 290: Discovering The Water Source
Chapter 290: Discovering The Water Source
Wang Yuan put down his backpack, took off his straw sandals, jumped up to the coconut tree, hugged the trunk, reached the top of the tree with a few chugs, and then dropped three coconuts.
After sliding down the trunk, he asked, "Lili, what time is it?"
"It's eleven o'clock."
Wang Yuan put on straw sandals, leaned against the coconut tree, lit a cigarette, and said, "Oh, it's time for lunch, how about we grill snake meat?"
Li Lili's face changed, and she said in horror: "Ah? No, I won't eat!"
Wang Yuan peeled open a coconut and handed it to her, asking, "Have you never eaten snake meat? It is delicious in our country."
"I know that. Those foodies in our country dare to eat anything. I can't. I was scared when I saw these cold-blooded animals when I was young."
"That's fine, just save it and feed it to the tiger."
"Um."
Wang Yuan fed his coconut milk to the second king.
After the three of them drank the coconut milk, they dug out the coconut meat and ate it. After resting their stomachs, Wang Yuan said: "Let's search this canyon to see if there is any fresh water. There is a chance of fresh water in such a low-lying place." It's very high."
"it is good."
The three of them got up and were about to go deep into the canyon. Just two steps away, they saw some old coconuts falling on the ground, and some even sprouted.
"Wow! Good stuff! Lili, Awei, look around for these old coconuts and collect them all."
After a while, the three of them collected more than ten.
"Haha, we have lunch, come, we will leave after we are full."
After finishing speaking, Wang Yuan sat down directly on the ground, picked up an old coconut and shook it by his ear, put the loud one aside, and put the soft ones together.
Seeing that Wang Yuan chopped off the buds from a coconut, he began to cut the coconut, and the skin of the coconut had turned black. Li Lili couldn't help asking: "Captain, can this be eaten?"
"Don't worry, this is delicious."
I saw Wang Yuan cut a hole in the coconut shell, then stretched out his hand, broke the coconut in half, spilled a little juice, a strong milky fragrance wafted out, and there was a milky yellow ball inside , almost filling the entire coconut.
"It smells so good! Captain, what is this?"
"This is Coconut Treasure, try it."
Then Wang Yuan opened two more coconuts, both of which were full of coconut treasure, and the three of them ate them one by one.
“It tastes like coconut meat, but the taste is soft and sweet, just like
Like marshmallows, so delicious. "
Awei also said: "Good time!"
After the three of them finished eating the coconut meat, Wang Yuan beckoned the two girls to go inside.
A few clusters of bushes appeared in front of the coconut grove, and a piece of short grass, which was very soft when stepped on, and there were many wild vegetables growing on it.
On the left side of the canyon is a cliff, which is connected to the seaside cliff, and on the right side is a steep hillside with lush trees on it. The further you go in, the narrower the canyon is.
"Captain, will there be any beasts inside?"
"Probably not, unless it is the natural enemy of pythons."
"Oh."
After passing the bushes, there are no plants in front of it, it is all sand and stones, but it can be seen that there is a dry river in the middle.
Suddenly, Wang Yuan's eyes lit up, and he was overjoyed that there was fresh water.
I saw a traveler banana hidden behind a cluster of bushes on the steep slope on the right!
"Come with me, we have fresh water!"
Wang Yuan took the two girls to Traveler's Plantation.
The two girls also noticed the traveler banana, and Li Lili asked, "Captain, where is the fresh water? Under that huge banana tree?"
Wang Yuan pulled out his machete, cleaned the bushes and weeds around the traveler banana, and said: "Hehe, this is not a banana tree. The trunk of the banana tree is obviously different from this one, and the petiole is not so big. Your treasure, you will know in a while."
Li Lili picked up the engineering shovel, Awei took the dagger, and the two women helped clean up the surrounding plants together.
Soon, the area around the Traveler's Banana was cleared up.
Wang Yuan put the oil barrel under the traveler's banana tree, and the engineer shovel removed the connecting arm, pierced a leaf handle with a dagger, pulled out the dagger, and a stream of water sprayed out.
Quickly plug in the connecting arm, and the water will flow out from the nozzle.
"Wow! That's great! Hahaha..." The two girls clapped their hands excitedly and laughed.
The water level in the oil barrel was getting higher and higher, and the two kings were scrambling to stick their heads in to drink water. These two guys hadn't drank fresh water for several days.
Wang Yuan took out an empty bottle from his backpack and motioned for the two girls to fill water, while he lit a cigarette and sat aside to watch the two girls giggle.
The two girls received the water with a smile. Li Lili filled a bottle of water and handed it to Wang Yuan, saying, "Captain, drink water!"
Wang Yuan took it, raised his head and gurgled dry, wiped the corners of his mouth, and handed the bottle to Li Lili.
"
Hehehe..." Li Lili's beautiful eyes turned into crescent moons.
The second king's head and body were also wet by the water, and he kept shaking his head and shaking his body, splashing the three of them with water.
The two girls also took a few sips from the bottle.
"Captain, this water is cool and refreshing, it's really delicious."
"Well, such a big traveler banana is enough for our daily drinking. But we can't fetch water too much, otherwise the traveler banana won't be able to stand it either."
I saw that Erwang's stomach was full from drinking, the bottles were all full, the oil barrel was half full, and the water flow on the traveler's banana gradually stopped.
Wang Yuan pulled out the connecting arm, returned it to Li Lili, and said: "We only need to bring weapons and move forward lightly. Let's put the backpack and water here temporarily. Let's go around the canyon and get familiar with the environment. If there is no danger, we will go live here."
"it is good."
The three of them continued to go deep into the canyon. After walking not far, they saw a pool of clear water in the river channel. When they walked over, it turned out to be a pool of stagnant water with many small insects swimming in it.
If this is to be drunk, it must be filtered and then boiled.
The canyon is not long, and it will end in less than a quarter of an hour. The canyon is getting narrower and narrower, and at the end there is only a slender rock crevice, and a spring water flows out of the rock crevice. gone. Biqu library
Looking at the trickle, Li Lili asked: "Captain, I can't get this water, the current is too small."
"Give me the shovel."
Wang Yuan picked up the engineering shovel, stretched into the crevices of the rocks, and dug along the direction of the water flow. There was only a thin layer of fine sand on the top, and there were rocks underneath. depression.
Let the two women move stones from the river together to block the water puddles around.
Watching the water level in the puddle start to rise, Wang Yuan said: "Okay, we can come here to get water in the future, and when the water is full tonight, we can come to take a bath."
"That's great!!"
"Lili, what time is it?"
"It's past three o'clock."
"Ok, let's go back and move all the things here, and we'll build a shelter in the coconut grove. And it's far away from those crocodiles, so we can be much safer."
"it is good."
The three of them went back and took all the things under the Traveler's Banana to the coconut grove. The two women were still terrified when they saw the big half of the boa constrictor.
