Such a big ship, because the mast is tilted, looks crooked and twisted, and the sailing speed is really too slow!
If you row by hand in the absence of fresh water, you may face the same predicament as the first time you went to Volcano Island.
Thirst, heat, heat stroke and dehydration!
And this time, the problems are more serious than the above, the temperature is higher, there are fewer people, and the boat is bigger.
It's not good to have to replenish water in strange ways.
So Lu Zhe decided to go to the off-shore bamboo hut first!
There are a few bottles of fresh water, and some dried bananas
In addition, there are plenty of bamboos. After the bamboo raft is repaired, it will be successfully driven back to the camp with the help of currents and wind!
As for whether this trip to sea was in vain or not, Lu Zhe no longer cares!
This time rowing was thrilling but safe. Although they encountered a group of sharks again, with previous experience, they did not startle these predators.
Or during the time when this giant octopus paid a visit, they had successfully evolved from predators to prey.
When they arrived at the offshore bamboo hut, it was already two o'clock in the afternoon. The three girls were hot, thirsty and tired. Each drank a bottle of fresh water!
But Lu Zhe reminded them: "Most of the fresh water is gone, you have to be a little more restrained in drinking. Otherwise I can only give you an enema."
Tang Xiaoguo recalled the terrifying experience and couldn't help murmuring: "Too scary!"
Lu Zhe added: "But it doesn't matter if we lose some food, we can eat this arm."
Jiang Yao said, "That's right, I have a bottle of Lao Gan Ma chili sauce in my bag that we can use to make grilled octopus skewers!"
"Isn't this an octopus?"
"Although it is called the Giant King Octopus, its true identity is not an octopus, just like the Giant King Octopus, it is a kind of octopus."
"It must taste pretty good!"
"I don't know if it tastes good or not, but the cholesterol must be off the charts."
"Forget the cholesterol, hurry up and make charcoal fire, I'm starving!"
The friends put charcoal in a pot and lit it, forming a perfect roasting oven!
You can grill shellfish in aluminum lunch boxes, or grill octopus directly.
Soon, the first batch of octopus was roasted. The snow-white meat slices were smeared with Lao Gan Ma chili sauce, and the taste was not good at all!
It was like chewing a piece of shoe pad smeared with Lao Gan Ma chili sauce. Lao Gan Ma was good, but the shoe pad was hard to chew and tasteless.
Out of respect for Lao Gan Ma, everyone ate a slice, but they couldn't eat a second slice no matter what.
Sure enough, usually for animals of the same species, the smaller they are, the more delicious they are, and the bigger they are, the harder they are to eat!
Lu Zhe picked up a slice of meat and suggested: "Don't waste Lao Gan Ma on this stuff anymore. Why don't you catch two fish to eat, Yao Yao?"
"Okay, I don't want to eat it anymore either! But you have to help me clean the fish!"
"Deal!"
Jiang Yao immediately took out the fishing hooks and lines she carried with her, and tied them to a reliable bamboo pole.
There was no bait, so she skewered some limpet meat and immediately got all the fishing gear ready.
Qian Qian and Guo Er tried to weave the sail, while Jiang Yao started fishing. Lu Zhe decided to accompany her to fish for a few fish first, eat dinner, and then do other things!
As a result, in less than three minutes, a large octopus came ashore, gurgling ink, and was instantly caught by Lu Zhe!
Shortly after, the second octopus came ashore and was thrown directly into a plastic bag, also squirting a bunch of ink.
Then the third one, a blue-ringed octopus!
Lu Zhe picked it up with bamboo chopsticks, then carefully put it in the fire pit and covered it with a lid!
Jiang Yao helplessly said: "What's wrong with me today? Why do I keep catching these mollusks? That guy's minions?"
"These are not bad. The smaller octopuses should have less rubbery texture and be easier to swallow!"
Sure enough, the taste of Lao Gan Ma grilled octopus this time was much better than the one before.
"What about the rest of this arm?"
"Hmm... cut it into strips to use as toilet paper! But be aware of any remaining sucker tissues!"
The few of them chatted while eating dinner!
There was still a plastic bag of ink squirted out by the octopuses left!
What use did this have?
"Can you eat this stuff?"
"It doesn't taste very good, and it's too fishy."
"Does it have parasites?"
Lu Zhe said: "Not only does it have parasites, but it's also toxic! But it's fine after being cooked! It can not only replenish the body with fresh water, but it's also an anti-cancer superfood! Some people sell this stuff specially!"
The girls all nodded, finding it somewhat hard to accept.
Lu Zhe collected all the ink and put it in an aluminum lunch box to boil.
"Everyone should drink some later!"
"Lu Zhe, are we going back to the plane to get stuff?"
Lu Zhe thought for a moment and shook his head: "We can't go back for now. The Giant King Octopus has made the plane its home."
Jiang Yao nodded: "No wonder it chased out all the other passengers."
Lu Zhe went on to say, "This creature likes tranquility. It also likes to squeeze into bottles, cans and narrow crevices! In the future, we can also use this characteristic to make tools to catch octopuses."
"Narrow crevices...tentacles..." Jiang Yao shuddered: "This stuff is too perverted!"
"So now, the problem we face is whether to continue thinking of ways to search for supplies, or just give up altogether?"
The three girls looked at each other, not really wanting to give up in their hearts.
"Is there a way to completely kill the Giant King Octopus?"
"The simplest way is to sail a big ship, drag the octopus ashore directly, and beach it! If the sun is strong enough, and it loses the desire and hope for life, it may choose to die directly."
"Forget about big ships. If we had a big ship to sail straight back, wouldn't it be even happier to take everyone back directly?"
Qian Qian thought for a moment: "Is it possible to evade it and sneak in to get supplies?"
"It might succeed, but don't be obsessed with it!
Who knows, it may find a new home in a couple days, and we'll have to thank it then for damaging the plane. Right now, I just want to get back to Volcano Island as soon as possible. Once we've come up with a perfect strategy, we'll come back for supplies."
The three girls all nodded in agreement.
Everyone drank octopus ink, ate small octopuses, and discussed experiences with the giant octopus.
Then they all fell asleep soon!
September 12th, stranded on the deserted island for 95 days, 4 am, the highest tide point!
"Crash!"
A loud noise woke the sleeping people!
Lu Zhe and the three girls opened their eyes, but saw ripples emanating in all directions, while everything around was still calm!
"What happened?"
"Don't know!"
"It seems like something popped out of the water and then disappeared instantly!"
Lu Zhe also felt a little surprised: could it be that giant octopus chasing here?
At this moment, he suddenly realized that the temporary shelter of this offshore bamboo hut seemed to be missing something!
The remaining food, tools, fresh water, and small amount of nutrients... were still there!
But one most important thing was missing: "Damn, where's our bamboo raft?"
