Chapter 497: Spring is warm and flowers are blooming, I can’t bear to leave
From tomorrow on, be a happy person; feed the horses, chop firewood, and travel around the world;
From tomorrow on, I will take care of food and vegetables; I have a house facing the sea, and the flowers are blooming in spring.~,
Haizi's dream has now become Zhu Pingan's life. Except for feeding horses and traveling around the world, the rest has become Zhu Pingan's current life. There is a cave facing the sea, decorated with flowers and plants inside and outside the cave.
, a winding path was paved with cobblestones outside the cave, creating a mansion facing the sea, and now spring flowers are blooming.
Vegetables, wild fruits, fish and shrimps were collected every day. In addition to the daily food, Zhu Ping'an, Li Shu and Hua'er also strung the surplus fish and shrimps with vines and hung them outside the cave to dry them into dried fish.
and dried shrimps as reserve food.
Chopping firewood is also essential.
It has been three days on the island, and Zhu Ping'an and the other three have almost adapted to life on the island. While trying to adapt to life on the island, Zhu Ping'an has never given up asking for help and rescuing himself.
Zhu Ping'an believed that there would definitely be search and rescue ships out there looking for the three of them. Even if the Marquis of Linhuai gave up, he believed that the Li Shu family and his own family would not give up. The Li family had enough financial strength to search and rescue them. The previous paragraph
At that time, Emperor Jiajing suspended the sea ban again, which just provided an opportunity.
If there is a ship to search and rescue, how can we make people notice this island? How can we let people know that the three of us are on this island? This is a homework that needs to be completed. The sea is vast and there are countless islands, and there are many islands.
The area is not small. Even if there are hundreds of ships and hundreds of people scattered on the sea, searching for the three of them is no better than finding a needle in a haystack.
Therefore, it is key to let outside search and rescue personnel pay attention to this island.
There is absolutely no point in setting up SOS on the beach. If there is no GPS, Beidou or helicopter here, the boats outside will not be visible at all.
In order to solve this problem, Zhu Ping'an thought of the ancient beacon tower. The beacon tower was an important alarm in ancient times and a medium for transmitting military information. There is nothing on this island that can convey news better than a beacon fire.
Zhu Pingan built a beacon tower with a height of more than one meter in the open space outside the cave. He then stored a lot of firewood, some of which were picked up by Li Shu and Baozi's maid, and some of which Zhu Pingan chopped with a simple stone axe.
.
During the day, moist firewood and moist vines are piled into the beacon tower to produce thick black smoke; at night, relatively dry firewood is piled into the beacon tower to produce a dazzling flame.
I believe that if there is a boat nearby and you look carefully, you can see the fireworks on this island no matter night or day.
In addition, Zhu Pingan also jokingly appointed Beacon Tower coach to Li Shu and appointed Beacon Tower deputy coach to Baozi's little maid.
The little maid Baozi was excited, while Li Shu rolled her eyes disdainfully.
In addition to actively preparing for help, Zhu Ping'an also worked hard to save himself. In short, he was making a raft.
This is a little difficult. Zhu Pingan's homemade stone ax is of very poor quality, and it is very difficult to cut down trees. After knocking and inspecting the tree trunks he picked up on the island, Zhu Pingan found that they were too weak and would be very dangerous if placed on the sea.
Cutting down trees yourself is much slower, but safety comes first. Slow down, slow down.
In Li Shu's eyes, there is still a lot of fun in such an island life.
When making fish soup by herself, Zhu Pingan would often help out, add fuel to the fire, and make jokes, such as the joke Zhu Pingan told the day before yesterday. Whenever Li Shu thought about it, she would laugh and blame her in her heart.
The harp and the crane ruin the scenery.
When making fish soup the day before yesterday, Zhu Pingan had been looking at the pot in a daze. He even laughed at him that his eyeballs fell into the pot. Then, he looked up at himself and stared at himself for a while, and then made a joke.
, Li Shu still clearly remembers the scene at that time:
"They are chatting in the pot. Didn't you hear it?" Zhu Pingan said, pointing to the boiling fish soup in the pot.
"How can they talk?" I curled my lips and rolled my eyes.
"Listen, the fish in the pot said, 'I keep my eyes open all the time so that I can't bear to leave you.'" Zhu Pingan raised his head and looked at himself and said.
"What are you talking about?" My heart was beating so fast at that time.
"The fish said, well, listen, the water also spoke. The water said to the fish, 'I flow tirelessly all day long just to surround you and pick you up properly.'"
When I heard Zhu Ping'an looking at me and saying this, my heart almost jumped out of my chest. My face was red and I was so nervous that I was at a loss. I thought it was this piece of wood and then when I heard this smelly thing
When the toad was talking about the pot and said, "It's almost cooked and still so stubborn," I really wanted to throw the smelly toad into the pot and stew it.
Idiot, wood!!!! It's really burning the harp and boiling the crane, it's really a disgrace to the scenery!
However, it was quite interesting when I thought about it later.
In fact, during these few days on the island, there are many interesting things like this. Many of them are like going to the west of the island with Stinky Toad to catch birds, collect bird eggs, catch lobsters, and pick crabs.
The birds on this island are very stupid. Stinky Toad said it was because of the sea ban. There has been no one on this island for a long time. It must have been over a hundred years. No one hunts here and there are no birds here.
They have seen people, so they are not afraid of people at all, and it is easy to catch them.
There are many seabirds here, in groups, covering the sky with countless numbers. They have black feathers and white heads. Fortunately, they are not good-looking, otherwise I would not have the heart to eat them. But although the seabirds are not very long,
It looks good, but it tastes delicious.
Every time, the Stinky Toad would let himself and Hua'er stand aside with grass seeds in their hands to lure the birds, and then the Stinky Toad would quickly catch the birds. He would succeed three to five times out of ten times.
"Little bird, don't be weird, you are a dish in the world. Go early this year and come early next year."
He didn't dare to do anything, so it was always the smelly toad that dealt with it. Zhu Pingan would say this every time he dealt with the bird.
There are many seabirds and eggs here, which were discovered by the Stinky Toad. On the sunny beach, there are some protruding sand dunes. If you dig them out, you can pick up several eggs. You can pick up half of the eggs from one nest every time.
I picked up dozens of bird eggs.
When the tide goes out, Zhu Ping'an will take himself and Hua'er to the beach to pick up crabs. The crabs here are very big, and sometimes lobsters can be found. The lobsters here are particularly fat. Once, he picked up a lobster
It's as big as a duck
Sometimes, I even think that it would be a happy thing for three people to live on such an island for a lifetime.
At certain times, looking at the beacon tower that burned with smoke during the day and fire at night, Li Shu had the idea of destroying it several times.
Spring is warm and the flowers are blooming, I can’t bear to leave (To be continued.)
