Chapter 65 Beating the Child on a Rainy Day
Qi Mo sucked seven or eight bird eggs and felt his stomach was not so empty anymore.
Lin Xi sucked two.
Raw bird eggs are very fishy, but a little bit of energy is enough.
On the way, Lin Xi found a snake, which was thicker than the one Qi Mo killed that day. The snake was resting under a pile of rocks. Lin Xi racked her brains to think of how to pretend to have discovered the snake accidentally.
She moved closer to the pile of rocks, poking around with the stick in her hand.
This action is normal because it can scare away some reptiles. Some reptiles are poisonous and being bitten is no joke.
Lin Xi's stick hit the pile of rocks several times.
The snake was startled and quickly swam out from the pile of rocks.
Generally, the larger the snake, the less venomous it is.
Pythons are not poisonous.
However, even if it was not poisonous, Lin Xi did not want to be bitten.
In her other hand she held a stick with a Y-shaped end.
The moment she saw the snake, she stretched out the stick in her hand as fast as lightning and got it stuck below the snake's head.
There are two key points about the snake.
One is three inches and the other is seven inches.
Three inches is not far below the snake's head, which is equivalent to the human neck. Generally, if you grab here, the snake will not be able to bite you.
The so-called seven inches is three-tenths of the way down from the snake's head, where the snake's heart is.
Break the snake's heart and the snake will die.
As soon as the snake came out, Qi Mo quickly discovered it. Lin Xi grabbed the snake's head, and he immediately stepped forward and poked the snake hard in the vital area.
The snake twisted and the poke went askew.
The snake's head was stuck tightly by Lin Xi and could not turn around. Qi Mo simply bent down, grabbed the snake by the waist, and poked it down with the pointed stick several times in a row.
The snake twisted its body desperately, but soon became motionless.
Qi Mo nailed the snake to the ground and used the same trick again to hit the snake's head with a stone.
Snakes are so tenacious that I won’t feel at ease until they die completely.
The two men cooperated well and quickly cut off the snake's head.
Qi Mo looked at Lin Xi, "Where are we going to eat?"
It definitely won’t work near the lake. There are too many people there, and such a big snake will definitely attract attention.
Lin Xi thought for a moment and said, "Just find a place where there's no one."
The two men came out of the woods and found a rocky beach by the sea.
There are no trees or fresh water here, and the terrain is not suitable for finding seafood, so generally no one comes here.
Along the way, the two picked up some half-dry branches and tied them with leather ropes. When they arrived at the rocky beach, Qi Mo dealt with the snake while Lin Xi made a fire.
Wet firewood is not easy to ignite, but fortunately Lin Xi still has some tinder. She lay on the ground and blew hard, her lungs almost blowing out, but she finally got the fire started.
She stood up straight. Qi Mo looked at her and couldn't help laughing. There was a lot of black smoke on her nose and face.
However, he didn't dare to wipe it for her as the drone was still filming.
After processing the snake, Qi Mo went to the beach to wash it, then skewered the snake and roasted it over the fire.
Lin Xi sighed as she added more firewood, "If only there were salt, cumin, chili powder, and chopped green onions, it would be even better. I wonder how fragrant it would be when it's roasted."
Her grilling skills are extraordinary.
Qi Mo sat next to her and said, "I haven't eaten salt for a few days. I feel weak all over. When I feel calmer, we can try to dry the salt."
Lin Xi nodded and then shook her head, "Once we dry out the salt, it will definitely be snatched away by others."
Qi Mo didn't say anything else and changed the subject, "By the way, your birthday is coming soon, right?"
Lin Xi raised her brows slightly, "How do you know?"
"Oh, you watched the interview, didn't you?"
Qi Mo nodded, "Which day?"
Lin Xi thought for a moment, "What day is it today?"
Qi Mo calculated, "According to domestic time, today is August 3rd. It's about ten hours later here than in China, so today should be the 2nd."
Lin Xi was confused for a moment. Her birthday was August 3rd, so was she celebrating her birthday today or tomorrow?
It’s funny to think about it. How can I celebrate my birthday on this deserted island?
Qi Mo observed her expression carefully, "Isn't it today?"
Lin Xi shook her head. "August 3rd, that's tomorrow, I guess."
Qi Mo didn't say anything after hearing this, but he was secretly thinking in his heart, how should he celebrate Lin Xi's birthday on this island where there is nothing?
This time all the snakes were roasted.
The two of them wrapped the food in leaves and ate it. After eating, they opened the clay pot and drank water.
The snake was really big, and the two men didn’t finish it, so they wrapped the rest in leaves and put it in their pockets.
After eating and drinking, the two returned to the jungle to find branches, pick leaves, and build another hut.
The first time is a trial, the second time is familiar. The shack was quickly built. It was bigger and more solid than the previous one. The two shacks were close together.
After doing all this, it was almost evening, and the two of them ate the remaining snake meat as dinner.
Then Lin Xi suddenly felt very free.
There are enough clay pots and bowls, enough water to drink, wild fruits, and a place to sleep. There is really nothing else to do.
Life seemed to have suddenly lost its direction.
Lin Xi thought of a sentence at an inopportune time: Beating children on a rainy day is just a waste of time.
She turned her head to look at Qi Mo, then glanced at the contestants by the lake.
Qi Mo quickly understood what she meant, stood up and said with a smile: "I'm full, let's go move around."
Lin Xi also stood up, and the two walked side by side, walking slowly along the lakeside.
Wherever they went, they were greeted with wary gazes.
Lin Xi was choosing her target as she walked.
Not long after walking, Lin Xi stopped.
She was attracted by a pot on the fire.
The jar is almost perfectly round, with a large belly and a slightly smaller mouth, and the lid is also made very neatly.
In particular, the color of the jar is burned more evenly, unlike her jars which are neither black nor yellow.
Lin Xi stared at the jar and felt that she had found a reason to take action.
Seeing Lin Xi and Qi Mo stop, two brown-skinned men beside the fire stood up and stared at them.
Then a string of curry-flavored English came out, "Go away, this is our territory."
Lin Xi raised her eyebrows. Judging from his appearance and the smell of curry, he turned out to be an Indian.
She didn't like Ah San very much. Ah San urinated and defecated everywhere, had no regard for hygiene, and was used to wiping his butt with his hands. She suddenly felt that this jar was dirty.
Moreover, India also likes to provoke at the border.
Since she couldn't go to the battlefield to fight, she might as well vent her anger by taking care of those two Indians.
She threw a punch without warning.
Hit Asan's temple.
This punch was the most satisfying one Lin Xi had received since participating in "Extreme Survival".
She has recently gained strength and is faster.
Just as Ah San felt the wind, the fist was right in front of him.
He raised his hand to block the punch, but Lin Xi's punch was too fast. As soon as he raised his hand, he felt a heavy blow on his face.
He tilted his head to the side, and Lin Xi's next punch arrived.
This punch hit the same spot, causing Asan's head to turn ninety degrees.
