31. At night in the cave, looking for rabbits in the rain
The thunder in the sky sounded for a while, and the heavy rain poured down. The flames in the cave could not be extinguished for a while. Xia Yi and the other two hid in a sunken place and barely avoided the rain.
The fire continued until the afternoon, and when Xia Yi and the other two were so cold that their faces turned pale, it finally went out.
After entering the cave, Xia Yi smelled the pungent kerosene smell, and the cave was covered with black dust.
After coughing a few times, he covered his nose and cleaned up the cave with Xiqiyue and the bandage man.
Then they took out a handful of dried branches, raised the fire, and placed the wet branches next to them to dry.
"Where do you have any supplies?" Xia Yi asked the man who wanted to bandage.
The five bandaged men discovered the ape man and took the initiative to evacuate the cave. They took away some of the supplies.
"It's all put on a tree, and it's a bit difficult to find." Looking at the heavy rain at the entrance of the cave, the bandaged man hesitated a little.
"The rain will only get heavier recently, and God knows that it is windy and heavy rain, and the supplies are still there." Xi Qiuyue stood up.
She pressed Xia Yi and sat down: "I'll go find him and I, you can take a break."
Xia Yi had injuries on his body. Although they were not serious, they were not light.
"And your clothes are still with me. Do you want to go out naked?" Xi Qiyue said again.
Xia Yi was persuaded by her and sat by the bonfire.
"Be careful," he said to Xi July.
"Okay." He waved his hands with Xia Yi, and Xi Qiuyue urged the bandage man to enter the heavy rain.
In the cave, only Xia Yi and Qiu Ruoyan were left.
Qiu Ruoyan was already a little bleeding, and she blew outside for a whole day, and she was exhausted and was lying beside Xia Yi.
Perhaps it still felt a little cold, the girl stretched out her hand and hugged Xia Yi's waist tightly.
Touching her head, Xia Yi recalled her calm and determined appearance when she faced the leader of the ape. At that time, as long as Xia Yi came a little later, or if Xi Qiyue did not throw stones to attract the leader of the ape, she would die.
Xia Yi also lay down, he hugged Qiu Ruoyan and closed his eyes. He had not been sleeping for two days.
I don’t know how long it took, but the sound of Xi Qiyue and the bandage man returning woke Xia Yi up.
Sitting up, he saw the two of them walking in with a piece of cloth on their own.
Xiqiyue's hands were cured meat, the bandage man had a pottery jar, and Xiqiyue's hands were also holding a tent bag.
"This is a tent cloth, which is just right to block the rain, and it is a little warm!" Xi Qiyue handed the cloth she was holding in front of Xia Yi and wrapped it with Xia Yi without a shirt.
Xia Yi wrapped the cloth around her body, and it became much warmer.
"I'll give you the sleeping bags too." Xi Qiyue gave Xia Yi two sleeping bags.
Xia Yi did not refuse. Anyway, he was in a cave, and everyone could use a sleeping bag when sleeping on shifts.
Compared to cold, food needs to be more vigilant.
There were thirty-two pieces left in the bread and ten pieces of cured meat. In addition, there were a little berries, which were not enough to eat.
You must find food outside, otherwise you will not die in the next thirty days, but you will feel very uncomfortable.
Today's luck has been used up, and Xia Yi is going to try it out tomorrow.
He glanced at the sky outside. It was already a little dark and night was about to fall.
Everyone was roasting on fire.
"Ah chi—"
Xiqiyue sneezes, and although the four of them were at the innermost part of the cave, the wind still blew.
Moreover, in order not to let the bonfire be extinguished by the wind, they have to stop them in front of the bonfire.
Xia Yi thought for a while, held the axe and called the bandage man.
Wrapped in two tent cloths, they entered the woods together.
"What are we doing?" asked the bandaged man.
"Cut down the tree." Xia Yi gave the axe to the bandage man.
"I'll do it?" The bandaged man hesitated a little.
"Do you still want me, the patient, to cut down trees?" Xia Yi frowned and looked at him.
"Ah, I should do it." The bandaged man lowered his body and chopped hard.
"Don't chop straight, slant." Xia Yi was doing technical guidance.
Two small trees were cut down, and the two returned to the cave and pruned the trees.
After finishing, Xia Yi put two trees at the entrance of the cave and tied up the tent cloth.
The tent has two layers of cloth, and there is another layer of Xia Yi wrapped around it.
With the tent cloth blocking, the wind in the hole basically disappeared, and the wind in the corners of Xia Yi didn't plan to care about it, just for ventilation.
"So that's how it is." The bandaged man was happy. This not only kept warm, but also didn't have to worry about the bonfire being blown out.
After confirming that the tree trunks were stuck tightly, Xia Yi returned to the campfire to sit down.
He yawned, flipped through the things the bandage man brought back, and found two inflatable sleeping pads.
He spread the inflatable sleeping mat and blew it all in full air. He left one by himself and stuffed it under Qiu Ruoyan.
The ground in the wild is cold, and with an inflatable sleeping mat, the cold air on the ground can be ensured that the body does not invade the cold air.
"You guys discuss who should watch the night first, I'll have a sleep." Wrapped in a tent cloth, he quickly fell asleep.
All the sound of ticking rain remained around.
One night passed.
【The 21st day begins】
【Number of survivors: 5】
Opening his eyes, Xia Yi got up from the sleeping mat and stretched.
Xiqiyue is still sleeping, and the bandage man is looking outside at the entrance of the cave, Qiu Ruoyan is boiling water.
Seeing Xia Yi wake up, Qiu Ruoyan threw a piece of bread.
"Well, isn't it too extravagant to eat bread for breakfast?" the bandaged man said hesitantly.
"Don't think too much, you don't have the share." Xi Qiyue stretched and came out of her sleeping bag.
The bandaged man smiled awkwardly.
"Today we will go outside to see if we can find food." Xia Yi finished eating the bread and waited for the water to boil.
"Even rabbits won't come out on rainy rains, you can't dig rabbits." The bandage man didn't think this plan was feasible.
"If you can't do it, doesn't it mean we can't do it. It can't run with a rabbit, but can't wild vegetables run?" Xi Qiuyue was full of confidence.
The water will be opened for a while, Xia Yi took the opportunity to ask the bandage man: "What have you all drawn?"
"I am kerosene, and there are four other people, a tent, a seawater desalination machine, an axe, and a burner." The bandaged man said, "In addition to this tent, I don't know where the axe was thrown by the owner. The seawater desalination machine was broken and the burner was also lost."
"Tell me about burners and seawater desalination machines," said Xia Yi.
"The burner is for camping, and it is a small thing for lighters. The seawater desalination machine is used to filter seawater and turn it into fresh water." The bandaged man replied.
"Your luck is really good." Xia Yi sighed.
There are tents and caves in the camp, seawater desalination machines in freshwater, axes in weapons, burners in fire, and kerosene in fire. In addition, the island's rich rabbits, if it weren't for the ape community, you could have won vain.
Standing up, Xia Yi came to the entrance of the cave and looked at it. The rain was still falling, but the wind turned.
After drinking water, Xia Yi asked Qiu Ruoyan to rest in the cave and left the dagger for her.
