Since the ship needs to replenish fresh water, the island is relatively large and there should be water sources. The secret guards picked the coconuts and left two people to carry them to the ship while the others went deep into the island to find water sources.
There is no one living on the island, and the fallen leaves in the forest are relatively deep. Not knowing what dangers there are under the thick fallen leaves, everyone chooses to use Qinggong and use the strength of the trees to move forward.
"Everyone, be careful, there are snakes in the trees." At first glance, I saw a black snake with orange stripes falling from the tree. Judging from the triangular head, it should be poisonous.
Just when Lao Tie was about to show off his power, he saw Linglong Yidie taking the lead and heading ahead to clear the way. Lao Tie said, I also want to fly...
After passing through the dense forest, the trees in front of us were not so dense. There were short shrubs and wild flowers on the ground, which were quite beautiful.
Fifteen saw several trees over there, bearing red fruits. He ran over to take a closer look and exclaimed: "Madam, are these red sun trees?"
Jun Che went over and took a closer look: "The fruits look similar, but the branches and leaves are not."
Mingruo took a closer look and found out that she had previously thought that the Red Sun Fruit looked like the Lotus Mist. Now, Shishi felt that the Lotus Wong looked like the Red Sun Fruit... I have to say that the two are indeed very similar.
"This is the lotus apple, also called the yangpu peach." Mingruo picked one, "Although it doesn't have the effect of the red sun fruit, it's still quite delicious."
"Can it be eaten?" Shiwu picked one, wiped it on his sleeve, and took a bite. Although it was crunchy, it was not as sweet as the Chiyang fruit. "It's not as delicious as the Chiyang fruit, but it's okay to eat to relieve boredom."
OK."
"It's not good for your health if you don't eat fresh fruits and vegetables for a long time. Pick more and bring them back to the ship and share them with everyone." Ming Ruo ordered.
"Okay." Fifteen began a new round of picking.
A few people continued walking forward and saw a small lake.
Mingruo collected water samples and put them into the medical system for testing. The result was that the water samples met drinking water standards: "We have found fresh water. Let's send people on the ship to transport the water."
"Yes." Chu Yi took the signal cigarette and sent a signal to the ship.
Mingruo looked at the hills opposite the small lake and felt a little strange: "The plants around here are quite lush, why are the hills bare?"
"Go over and have a look." Jun Che took the lead and headed towards the hill.
Si Haochen also took Mingruo up with him. Since the mountain was not very high, he reached the top of the mountain in a few times. There was a reason why there was no grass growing on the mountain. They were all big and small rocks, not even a speck of soil.
Jun Che was squatting beside a rock, not knowing what he was looking at. Ming Ruo walked over and stumbled on a fist-sized rock and almost fell. Fortunately, Si Haochen caught her in time.
Mingruo kicked the stone angrily: "Ah...it hurts..."
Because she had to 'patrol the island', Mingruo specially wore a pair of calfskin boots, but unexpectedly, her foot was stung by the stone.
Seeing that his wife was injured, Si Haochen directly touched the stone and quickly checked Mingruo's injury: "How is it?"
"It should be fine, I just didn't expect the stone to be so hard." Mingruo pursed his lips.
"Take off your boots and take a look." Si Haochen squatted down and raised his legs for Ming Ruo to sit on.
Mingruo really felt pain and took off his boots. His toes didn't bleed, but they looked a little red: "Go back and apply some ointment and you'll be fine."
"Apply it now." Si Haochen felt distressed when he saw that the toes of his shiny white toes were not only a little red but also seemed to be swollen.
"Okay." Anyway, I took off my shoes and socks, so I took out a tube of ointment directly from the 'sleeve pocket' and applied it.
Jun Che came over after seeing his junior sister put on her shoes and socks: "Is the injury serious?"
"It's okay." Mingruo shook his head, and a dazzling light flashed past.
The sun just happened to hit the stone kicked aside by Si Haochen. Si Haochen used his strength, and the stone hit the big stone next to it, breaking the corners. At this time, it was sparkling under the setting sun.
"That stone is very special." Mingruo pointed to the fist-sized stone.
Jun Che picked up the stone and handed it to Mingruo.
Mingruo looked at the stone. A few pieces of the gray stone skin were knocked off, revealing the blue and purple crystals inside: "This...is a gem ore, right?"
Mingruo doesn't know much about minerals, but it looks like the rough gemstones they collected from Yanluo Mountain!
"It should be." Si Haochen used his inner strength and knocked off a large piece of the stone film. The exposed crystal was larger and looked more transparent.
"It looks like a gem mine to me." Jun Che pointed to several large rocks around him, "Those are also..."
"Ah?" Mingruo thought he was lucky and kicked out a 'jewel'. Unexpectedly, this was probably a mine, or an open-air type, and he kicked out the smallest piece.
"Let's pick up a few pieces and take them back to show Mr. Qing Wei." Jun Che chose two pieces that could be put into the backpack.
Mingruo put the big pieces into the space, and then put the things in the backpack into the space: "I won't put them in the backpack until we get on the boat. It's too heavy to hold them like this."
"Okay." Jun Che nodded and picked up the small backpack, "It's getting dark soon, let's go back to the boat first."
Si Haochen bent down: "If you are really foresight, you will know that you have to carry you back for your husband, so you are not allowed to carry a basket..."
Mingruo's feet were still a little sore, so she didn't refuse and lay on Si Haochen's back obediently: "This is fate. I originally wanted to keep a low profile, but I might accidentally find a gem..."
"Pfft..." Jun Che was amused by his junior sister, "If you say this to others, you are just asking for a beating..."
"Why don't you tell me the truth?" Ming Ruo raised her chin proudly.
Several people went down the mountain and came to the lake. Water trucks had been sent to transport water. Several water trucks were lined up, which looked quite spectacular.
If the few stones he picked up are indeed gem mines, Si Haochen plans to conduct a closer inspection at dawn: "It's not safe to walk in the woods after dark. Just make this trip today, and we will transport more water boats tomorrow morning."
"Yes, Master." The secret guard responded quickly.
Si Haochen did not stay long and flew away to the boat on the coast with his wife on his back.
Back on the boat, Jun Che brought some stones to Mr. Qing Wei for inspection.
Mingruo's feet no longer hurt, so she changed into soft embroidered shoes. She wants to see Mr. Qing Wei to identify the stones. If those small pieces are gems, then let Mr. Qing Wei look at the larger ones in the income space.
.
As soon as Mingruo walked to the door, Si Haochen came in from the outside and carried him back: "It's not because your feet hurt, why are you running around?"
"It doesn't hurt anymore." Mingruo made a face.
"What did Mr. Qing Wei say?" Mingruo looked at Si Haochen expectantly.
"It's said to be a sapphire mine." Si Haochen raised the corners of his lips slightly.
"Wow." Although Mingruo is already a rich woman, she is still very surprised to find a gem mine or something.
Mingruo also took out a few big rocks that had been put into the space: "Let Mr. Qing Wei take a look at these too."
