"Fatty, we picked some cocoa pods. Do you know how to make chocolate?" After lunch, Liu Yifei walked up to Li Yinsheng with about ten cocoa pods and asked.

As for the three men, they had long since gone to the beach to rest, cool off, and sleep on deck chairs.

At this moment, Li Yinsheng was processing green raw papayas, intending to make pickled papaya shreds.

“This is simple and easy! First, take out the pulp, let it ferment, then dry it, grind it into powder, melt it, and pour it into a mold.” Li Yinsheng said, glancing at Liu Yifei as she peeled the papaya.

"Fatty, can you eat this raw papaya?" Zhao Liying asked as she approached Li Yinsheng, who was busy at work.

“Yes, it’s edible. I plan to pickle the raw papaya into papaya shreds as a snack for us.” Li Yinsheng peeled the papaya, removed the seeds, and then cut it into thick shreds.

Soak the papaya shreds in cold water for 6 hours, squeeze out the water, and then put the squeezed papaya shreds into a container.

Crush the garlic and chili peppers and put them on top of the shredded papaya. Pour in an appropriate amount of soy sauce and light soy sauce, stir the shredded papaya, and marinate for a day and a night before eating.

Fortunately, during the last exchange of survival supplies, they exchanged for cooking ingredients and garlic, so they had all the seasonings for pickling papaya shreds.

Liu Yifei and Zhao Liying were also busy, taking out the pulp from the cocoa fruit and putting it into a small jar for fermentation........

After they finished doing these things, washed some wax apples and figs, and peeled papayas and cactus fruits, they headed towards the seaside.

Upon arriving at the seaside, they saw three finished nine-toothed rakes and a bundle of woven vines placed nearby.

Li Yinsheng and the others placed the washed and cut fruit on several wooden tables and then closed their eyes for an afternoon nap.

The sea breeze carries a slightly salty scent. Listening to the sound of the waves and eating fruit, this is a very pleasant way to spend a day, making the viewers in the live stream quite envious.

...

In the evening, Group A ate some fruit to fill their stomachs before heading towards the mangroves.

The six of them carried shoulder bags and two plastic buckets. Li Xiang also knew how to tie up the blue crabs, so he twisted some thin rope from dry thatch to tie them tightly later, so that if they weren't tied up, the blue crabs wouldn't injure each other's pincers while fighting, or escape on their own.

The mud crabs they brought back in the morning weren't tied up, which caused several of them to fight, resulting in the loss of many of their legs and claws. Two of the crabs even died in the fight.

"Fatty, let's check the traps for catching Ganoderma crabs. There are three here, hurry up and catch them." After arriving at the place where the Ganoderma crab traps were set, Zhao Liying couldn't wait to run over. She saw three Ganoderma crabs eating the bait they had put out that morning around the traps. She quickly grabbed the three Ganoderma crabs, opened the trap, and saw that there were about ten Ganoderma crabs of different sizes inside.

“That’s good, there are about ten. We’ll take them all back after we finish catching the blue crabs.” Li Yinsheng nodded, a satisfied smile on her face.

They continued walking towards the mangroves, the surrounding scenery gradually becoming dark and quiet, with only the sound of their footsteps and the occasional chirping of insects breaking the stillness of the night.

Night, like an invisible net, slowly enveloped the mangrove forest, adding an even more eerie touch to this already mysterious place.

When they arrived at the mangrove forest, they were surprised to find that some members of Group B had already arrived. However, they were very well-behaved and were searching for blue crabs in their own little plot of land.

"Xixi, Yingbao, Jiaozhu, Yixing, you're here." At this moment, Yang Mi from Group B also noticed their arrival. Yang Mi waved and greeted them warmly, her face beaming with a friendly smile, as if they were old friends reuniting.

"This mangrove area has just been discovered and developed, and there are plenty of blue crabs and mangrove clams in it. How could we not come? Let's see which of our two groups has the biggest harvest tonight," Huang Xiaoming said eagerly.

"I heard from Xiao Huang that your group got a lot of food during the last event. Why don't you give us this mangrove forest? Our group B would be extremely grateful!" Song Qian said to the members of Group A with a playful tone, her eyes gleaming with cunning, as if she didn't really expect them to agree to the proposal.

Upon hearing this, Liu Yifei gently shook her head, her voice clear and firm: "Qianqian, in this island survival competition, we're all competing fairly. Nobody can complain about having too much food. Besides, if our group wants to win the championship, the more food we store, the better. As for the mangrove crabs and mangrove clams, tonight, let's let our strength speak for itself!"

After Liu Yifei finished speaking, the members of both groups sprang into action. They dispersed and began searching deep into the mangrove forest for the blue crabs and mangrove clams hidden in the darkness and mud.

As night deepened, the light in the mangrove forest became even dimmer, with only the beams of headlamps weaving through the shadows of the trees.

For the survival on the desert island, the production team provided each group with three headlamps free of charge in order to help them dive and fish.

Group A, consisting of Li Yinsheng, Zhao Liying, and Liu Yifei, was tasked with using a nine-toothed rake to dig for mangrove clams in the mangrove forest.

Li Xiang, alone with a headlamp, would search for blue crabs from time to time and was also responsible for tying ropes to them.

"Wow! This mangrove clam is huge, it's about the size of my fist." Zhao Liying had just dug out the mangrove clams and was surprised to find that they were really big. In just a few digs, she had filled almost half of the wooden bucket.

Seeing this, Song Qian and Yang Mi from Group B stopped looking for blue crabs and started digging for mangrove clams in the mangrove forest.

However, they were unprepared and could only dig with their hands, so their efficiency was naturally not as good as Zhao Liying's group, which had come prepared.

"Is this crocodile still here? Is it protected? If not, can we catch it and eat it?" After discovering the crocodile in the mangrove forest, Zhang Yixing, who was searching for giant crabs, had a look of hesitation and curiosity in his eyes.

He stopped and cautiously approached the crocodile lying quietly in the mud, trying not to make too much noise, for fear of disturbing this seemingly sleeping jungle overlord.

"Don't even think about it. Crocodiles are protected animals here. Judging from the size of this crocodile, the production team probably left a few small crocodiles in this mangrove forest on purpose," Li Yinsheng reminded them.

Over the course of the night, both groups had caught a considerable number of blue crabs and mangrove clams in the mangrove forest. Relatively speaking, Group A caught more than Group B, firstly because they had one more person, and secondly because they brought their own tools for digging for mangrove clams.

They almost swept through the entire mangrove forest. Although they didn't completely wipe out the giant blue crabs, the chances of getting them again in the future will be much lower, and the crabs will likely be much smaller.

However, we can still harvest some mangrove clams.

With the big ones all gone, Group A plans to reserve a spot in the mangrove forest for future searches, so they can come back to dig for mud crabs or mangrove clams later.
