Chapter 138 Coconut Crab

After taking a short break and circling the lake, Li Yinsheng continued her treasure hunt.

Sunlight filtered through the sparse clouds, casting a gentle golden glow on the shimmering lake surface, adding a touch of tranquility to the scene. Li Yinsheng took a deep breath of the fresh air, feeling her mood instantly lift.

She walked slowly along the lakeside path, flanked by lush trees and occasional wildflowers peeking out, all seemingly displaying vitality and life.

She hadn't gone far when she discovered a huge rock slope standing not far in front of her. The space below could be tidied up and used as a temporary resting place. With her back against the rock, she could be sheltered from the wind and rain. If she propped up a few wooden sticks on both sides and covered them with banana leaves, her seclusion would be unparalleled.

Li Yinsheng secretly admired this natural resting place. After looking around and confirming that there were no signs of wild animals, she quickly got to work.

She picked up a few sticks of suitable thickness from nearby, dug a few holes, and firmly inserted the sticks into the sides of the slope to form a simple fence.

Next, she cleared a clean area from the dead branches and leaves under the boulder, lit a fire, and continued to explore the surroundings. Not long after, she found a tall banana tree, plucked all the leaves off the banana leaf, and even took out the banana core, ate one, and replenished her water.

She covered the wooden frame with banana leaves, securing it with rope and vines to prevent rainwater from seeping in, and placed any excess leaves on the ground. After some effort, a secluded and comfortable temporary resting place was thus created.

Sitting in the little nest she built herself, Li Yinsheng felt an unprecedented sense of satisfaction and peace of mind.

She closed her eyes, felt the gentle breeze on her face, and heard the occasional birdsong coming from the distant mountains and forests. All of this brought her great relaxation.

"Now that we have shelter, the next step is to find food." After resting for a while, Li Yinsheng secretly planned her next move.

She got up and looked around, her gaze landing on a dense thicket of bushes not far away.

Bushes are ideal hiding places for small animals such as pheasants and rabbits, making them perfect hunting grounds.

She happened to have brought her bow and arrows with her, so Li Yinsheng tiptoed toward the bushes, trying not to make any noise so as not to disturb any wild game that might be hiding there.

Sunlight filtered through the gaps in the leaves, dappling the ground and adding a touch of mystery to the tranquil forest.

Li Yinsheng's eyes were as sharp as a cheetah's, scanning every corner, searching for traces of her prey.

"I didn't find any prey, but I did find a treasure chest." Li Yinsheng walked into the bushes and suddenly noticed a slightly raised patch of ground covered with layers of dead branches and leaves, almost blending into the surrounding environment and difficult to notice without close inspection.

She stepped forward and gently brushed aside several layers of withered branches and leaves with her foot. As the covering was gradually removed, a pale yellow treasure chest was buried in the ground.

Li Yinsheng opened the box and found ten packs of spicy strips inside.

After putting away the ten packs of spicy strips, Li Yinsheng, who was on the ground, glanced ahead and noticed a flash of purple amidst a pile of rocks not far away.

The purple, object-like thing was slowly moving its body, seemingly trying to crawl into the cave.

Upon seeing this, Li Yinsheng hurried forward, both curious and wary. The purple figure appeared and disappeared among the rocks, moving at a slow pace.

As the distance closed, Li Yinsheng finally saw the true appearance of the purple object—it was a rather large coconut crab, its entire body glowing purple.

"This is a coconut crab, quite big, weighing three or four pounds. I'll keep it. I'll look around some more." Li Yinsheng found a vine, tied the coconut shoe to it, and then started searching for coconut crabs in the pile of rocks.

Among the pile of rocks were caves of varying sizes. Looking inside, one could see movement in each one, indicating that coconut crabs lived there. During the search, Li Yinsheng also found coconut crabs of different sizes, some as small as an adult's fist, while the larger ones weighed only a little over two pounds each. Li Yinsheng did not collect any of them.

On the contrary, many coconuts that had been eaten were found on the ground.

However, not far from this rocky forest, there were several tall coconut trees.

Li Yinsheng had an idea. Coconut crabs like to eat coconut meat and they like to come out at night. If he spread coconut meat around these holes and set traps, he could harvest coconut crabs at night. He would have solved the food problem for the past two days and wouldn't have to spend any effort searching for them.

Thinking of this, Li Yinsheng couldn't help but smile with satisfaction.

"Wow, that coconut crab must weigh seven or eight pounds! It's so big."

"Can the production team still do this? A treasure chest shaped like a coconut, see? There's a treasure chest over there." When Li Yinsheng arrived at a coconut tree, intending to climb the tree to pick a coconut...

Upon discovering a gigantic coconut crab climbing the coconut tree, she exclaimed in surprise, her hands freezing in mid-air. The coconut crab was far larger than she had ever seen before; its carapace gleamed with a healthy sheen, and its enormous pincers seemed capable of easily severing thick branches. It clung firmly to the trunk, seemingly enjoying the unique tranquility and coolness of its height.

Looking at the coconuts on the coconut tree, Li Yinsheng noticed that one of the coconuts seemed a little different. Upon closer inspection, the coconut had a mottled appearance and was a darker color than the surrounding coconuts. It also had a faint sheen on its surface, clearly indicating that it was not a naturally grown coconut.

She realized that this was likely a hidden treasure chest set up by the production team, so cleverly disguised that it would be almost impossible to detect unless seen with her own eyes.

The viewers in the live stream started discussing Li Yinsheng's good luck.

"This chubby girl's luck is truly incredible. While looking for food, she not only found a giant coconut crab to solve her food problem for the next two days, but also found two treasure chests that were hidden so well."

"This coconut crab is so big, it must be worth a lot of money!"

"That's right, look at the size of this coconut crab, it could easily fetch a good price, not to mention its delicious meat, it's a hot commodity in the market!"

"The production team is really cunning! They even painted this treasure chest and shaped it like a coconut; most people wouldn't have noticed. Fatty, how did you find this treasure chest? Share your experience!"

How do you cook coconut crab to make it delicious? I need a recipe!

"Oh my god! Look, Dilraba seems to be heading in the direction of the chubby girl. I hope they don't run into her!"

"Upstairs, Dilraba has run into Fatty. She'll definitely cling to Fatty relentlessly. Food and shelter are readily available."
