Chapter 781: Extending One’s Own Feeling to Others

"Ahhh, there's food. This time it's real food!"

"Yes, yes, finally I don't have to wait any longer!"

Although the cap is only the size of a fingernail, it is well known that mushrooms grow extremely fast. Once they emerge, they may mature in a few hours, or even a day and a night if the conditions are right.

It’s just, “Are these mushrooms edible?”

The old man's question was like cold water poured on everyone's head.

Several girls looked at each other and then at Bi Qiaoan.

Bi Qiaoan didn't know what kind of mushroom she took out, but he was sure that it was not poisonous.

So he nodded and said, "It looks like it has a smooth surface and the color is not that bright, so it should be edible. Besides, we don't have any other choice right now."

The girls struggled for a long time before they said, "Okay, we'll eat it. At worst, we'll die. What's so scary about that?"

Bi Qiaoan: "There's no need to be so pessimistic. Trust me, this mushroom is fine."

The plants she grows in her space are all bought from a cultivation base. How could they be poisonous?

It's just that there are too many types of mushrooms, and she hurriedly grabbed the soil containing mycelium from the space, so she couldn't tell the species for a while.

"Okay, sister, we believe you!"

Bi Qiaoan nodded: "Then let's go back. It's useless to stay here. Let's come back tomorrow to pick them."

One of the girls shook her head frantically: "No, no, we finally found some food, how can we just leave them alone! You guys go back, I'll stay here."

The other girl was also a little hesitant: "How about I accompany her?"

Seeing this, Bi Qiaoan said, "Why don't we just move our base camp here? It doesn't matter where we live."

The girls were delighted when they heard this, and after cheering for a while, they ran to move their "luggage". The so-called luggage was just a pot, a few broken bowls, and a bundle of firewood.

No, there were two more bottles of water, but those two bottles were brought over.

Bi Qiaoan and An An squatted there without moving, staring at the little mushroom that had just emerged from the mud.

"Could it be that the spiritual spring water has such a strong promoting effect on the division of fungi?"

Seeing that the old man and his wife had gone to check elsewhere, Bi Qiaoan poured some spiritual spring water on the roots of the small mushroom. As a result, the cap of the small mushroom expanded at a speed visible to the naked eye, and in a few minutes, it grew to a diameter of five centimeters.

This is the level that can be picked. Bi Qiaoan was startled and subconsciously picked the mushroom. Seeing that no one was paying attention, he quickly put it into the space. Then he patted his chest, afraid that he was almost exposed.

But what she didn't know was that after the spiritual spring water was diluted by the water in the mud, it was supplied to the plants in all directions. The hyphae were particularly benefited, and their division speed increased several times in a minute.

So, when the girls came back and saw the mushrooms that were obviously bigger, they were so excited that they were speechless.

"Ahhh, at this rate, we can have mushroom soup in the evening, right?"

"Yes, yes, yes, hurry up and prepare the fresh water. We'll have soup tonight!"

Several girls shouted excitedly, calling out to the uncle: "Uncle Fang, could you please get us some water?"

The old man in the distance heard this and nodded with a smile: "Okay, I'll go and fight for you!"

Because the sea water has receded, people have to cross the mud and go to a place several hundred meters away to get water.

Along the way, there were mud and pebbles, broken glass, and rotten fish and shrimp.

The girls were very clean and were unwilling to lower their standards. Only the old man didn't care and went to fetch water through the mud.

Bi Qiaoan saw this but didn't stop it. If someone is willing to make a contribution, then so be it.

However, I can help you privately.

Soon, the old man came back with a pot of slightly turbid seawater. After returning, he said seriously: "Hurry up and distill it. I will make two more pots for you later."

"What's wrong, uncle?" a girl asked.

The old man looked into the distance and said, "The sea water receded too quickly, but the silt left behind will not dry up in a short time. I was walking over there just now and almost got stuck in the silt. You can see that the deepest part was up to my chest."

Bi Qiaoan frowned, "If that's the case, don't put yourself in danger again. We're all thinking about the mushroom soup tonight, so save the fresh water and drink it sparingly. We don't know when we can get out of this 'isolated island'."

When the girls heard this, their mouths drooped, but they didn't dare to refute.

The old man couldn't bear it, so he laughed and said, "It's okay, I'll go get another pot of sea water later, and we can drink it tonight. But it won't be possible tomorrow."

As soon as the old man finished speaking, the old woman twisted his waist hard.

I know my old man is helpful, but this is too shameless. He knew it was dangerous to fetch water, but he still rushed to do it.

The old lady glared at the girls, thinking that young people really had no sense of propriety. But when she looked at Bi Qiaoan, her eyes softened a lot.

I thought this girl was pleasing to the eye and she knew how to think of others.

The aunt's objection did not stop the uncle, because the girls' eyes were too eager and he was too embarrassed to regret it. But he also learned a lesson and knew that he should not make promises carelessly in the future.

Seeing this, the aunt could only sigh. Seeing the girls frantically distilling fresh water, she endured it and went forward to help.

Bi Qiaoan sat there motionless, watching everyone busying around, not knowing what he was thinking.

----------

Li Sikai's head has become bald in the past two days because Yuan Ruoxi's temperature not only did not go down, but even her hemorrhage did not stop.

If it were an ordinary person, he would have died long ago with this amount of blood loss, but Yuan Ruoxi was still strong. Even though she was confused, she was still alive.

Lu Nanfang was anxious, but she didn't show it on her face. Once when she went out to relieve herself, she heard someone say that fish in the water were not edible, and she had some vicious thoughts.

She pretended to walk to the beach casually and found that the sea water had receded far away.

Lu Nanfang looked at the mud under his feet with disdain, his eyes rolled, and he squatted down, put his handkerchief on the mud, waiting for the handkerchief to slowly be soaked by the mud.

Seeing that the handkerchief was soaked, Lu Nanfang folded it carefully, placed it in the palm of his hand, and then thought about a way to retreat.

She looked up and saw many people wading barefoot through the mud to fetch water, and at the other side of the sea, there was vaguely visible land.

Lu Nanfang had an idea in mind.

She returned to the thatched hut and, while no one was paying attention, squeezed the dirty water on the handkerchief onto Yuan Ruoxi's lips.

Although Yuan Ruoxi was delirious due to the fever, she swallowed instinctively after feeling the water. In this way, she swallowed a lot of dirty water.

Logically speaking, there are only a few dozen drops of sewage and it will not kill anyone.

The bad thing was that Yuan Ruoxi was sick and her body was almost on the verge of collapse. A few drops of sewage directly defeated her immune system. In less than two hours, she had a rash on her body.

Li Sikai was horrified when he saw this, and questioned Tong Xianbao and Lu Nanfang: "What did you feed her? How did she get infected with the disease?"
