Chapter 002 Desert Island Survival 1
The last energy of the store could only support this transmission. The moment Xie Yunsui landed, the store disappeared, and the little bee and the trash can Youyou were thrown out and stayed beside Xie Yunsui.
As soon as Youyou landed, the system sensed that the air was dirty. A circle of dark red light lit up, and two thin arms stretched out and started cleaning.
Xie Yunsui picked it up and let it rub the air, allowing the little bee to explore the surroundings lightly.
Tiantian hadn't been in contact with the world outside the shop for a long time. Her sensors were erected and she was extremely curious about the waves. She tried to stay on the waves, but she couldn't stand on them.
Xie Yunsui glanced at the little bee that was having fun, and sighed deeply, recalling that the plane he had chosen this time was a plane derived from the game world, with no intelligent beings and an energy index of only half a star.
There aren't many options in the store, and all have an energy index of only half a star, which means that even if you stay here for a long time, you won't accumulate much energy.
There is always some, little by little it adds up to a lot.
Xie Yunsui was in a good mood and didn't worry about it anymore.
He took two tentative steps toward the beach. A second before he touched the water, a sentence suddenly flashed before his eyes: "The sea is too dangerous. It's better not to go there."
He changed his place and continued, repeating the same words one after another.
It seems that he is not allowed to go out to sea?
He walked along the coast for more than half an hour before the little bee caught up with him and said, "Shopkeeper, this is a small island."
It just couldn't stand on the waves no matter how hard it tried, and it was so angry that it flew higher and higher, until it reached a certain height, and it couldn't go any higher, as if there was a void barrier blocking it, so it circled along the barrier. Flying speed is always faster than walking, and it flew around the island and took pictures of the overall environment of the island.
Xie Yunsui looked at the gourd-shaped island. He walked for half an hour but still didn't reach the bottom of the gourd.
Now that we know the shape of the island, there is no need to go around it. There are no intelligent beings here, which means there are no indigenous savages on the island, and the danger is greatly reduced.
As they moved away from the coast, the greenery became increasingly dense, with clumps of dry weeds and small stones occasionally appearing on the ground. Tall trees stood sparsely. After walking a few steps, Xie Yunsui vaguely felt that something was wrong.
Didn't the two clumps of dry weeds on the ground look too similar? As if they'd been copied and pasted, the even-stretched blades were oriented in the same direction. Xie Yunsui circled around the weeds and realized that no matter which direction he looked at them, they were the same shape.
There are two kinds of trees, one is tall and pointed, reaching into the clouds, and the other is short and fat. Some of the short and fat trees have a ball of resin on their trunks, while others have green vines wrapped around their trunks.
From time to time, the chirping of birds and the croaking of frogs can be heard in the forest.
The soil on the ground was quite moist. Xie Yunsui picked up two small stones and put them in his pocket, letting the little bee go ahead to find water.
To survive on this isolated island, he cannot do without water. He cannot even touch the sea, which means that he cannot get water by distillation. He has to find another source of water.
Fortunately, the little bee soon brought good news. There was a pool of water in front, roughly at the waist of the gourd.
On the way to the small pond, there were small piles of stones blocking the way from time to time, and it was necessary to take a detour. Xie Yunsui saw gray stone pieces and sharp stones on the ground, as well as a small bulging mound with a hole in it. He wondered what small animal was hidden inside.
Occasionally, he would see clusters of berry trees. Xie Yunsui tried to pick one, but he didn't expect that all the fruits on the tree would disappear as soon as he pinched one fruit, leaving him staring at the small blue fruit in his hand, at a loss.
The small blue fruits are slightly sour and look like blueberries, but they taste bland.
He encountered another red berry tree and plucked one. It tasted pure sweet, but still tasteless. Similarly, there were clearly more than a dozen berries on the tree, but as soon as he plucked one, they were all gone. This made Xie Yunsui afraid to pick any more.
We also came across a bamboo forest, with tall and straight bamboos, small bamboos as tall as a person, and small bamboo shoots sticking out of the ground.
Xie Yunsui was not in a hurry to go to the pond, and he started to break the bamboo shoots excitedly. It was not difficult to break the bamboo shoots. He just held the bamboo shoots and pressed left and right to break them.
Then, when I broke the second one, I found something wrong again.
No matter how hard Xie Yunsui tried, he could only pick up one bamboo shoot. There was still space in his hand, but he couldn't pick up the second one. Even if he put one bamboo shoot in his pocket, the one in his pocket would fall out when he picked up the second one. It would fall out no matter what.
Xie Yunsui: "..."
He had no choice but to pick up a bamboo shoot and move forward.
As we approached the pond, the trees here became much sparser, the ground became much flatter, and there was a new type of tree with large leaves, a bit like a palm tree.
The little bee stopped on the water surface and was testing the water quality. Soon a test report came out.
"It tastes sweet and refreshing, can it be drunk directly?" Xie Yunsui was deeply skeptical.
This pool of water seemed to have appeared out of nowhere, completely devoid of fluidity. While it looked clear, who knew how many nearby animals had drunk and defecated there? The bacteria and microorganisms within had fought several world wars, hadn't they? Could this be drunk directly?
As he was speaking, a fish appeared in the pond. Xie Yunsui could tell with his naked eyes that it was a silver carp. This was his first day on the deserted island. He could not even pick a few bamboo shoots, and two berries were not enough to fill his stomach. He had been traveling for half a day and was already starving.
If you have fish, you can make grilled fish. This fish is a good size and can be eaten as a meal.
Xie Yunsui carefully put Youyou down, took off his shoes and stepped into the pool barefoot. The pool was not deep, only up to his knees. As soon as he entered the water, the fish seemed to sense something and swam away.
Xie Yunsui waited for a while, and the fish swam out again. It didn't seem like it had hidden at the bottom of the pond, but rather seemed to have suddenly appeared from the mud at the edge of the pond.
After spending a lot of effort, Xie Yunsui still failed to catch the fish. No matter how hard he tried, he even used the Little Bee laser to hit the fish. He could see the laser beam passing through the fish's body with his naked eyes, and the next second the fish swam away freely as if it had not been attacked at all.
The laser consumed energy, and the little bee fell listlessly on top of Xie Yunsui's head to rest. Xie Yunsui was also very tired, so he sat down by the pond to rest. He was about to put on his shoes to see if there was a place to set up camp nearby, when he suddenly discovered that the shoes he had just taken off on the shore were missing.
He shifted his gaze to the small trash can, picked it up, and asked, "Did you hide my shoes?"
Youyou lifted up the palm-sized light screen:?
Xie Yunsui took a deep breath and asked gently, "Did you just clean up my shoes as if they were garbage?"
Youyou lifted the lid of the bucket and pushed out the garbage bin to show him, it was empty.
As soon as it landed, it was sweeping the air. There was not even a leaf here.
Xie Yunsui frowned and looked around, wondering if he was too focused on catching fish and didn't notice any animals sneaking by nearby.
It's very troublesome. The ground here is uneven and there are all kinds of things on it. Walking on it barefoot is undoubtedly a torture.
If you cut your foot and there is no medicine, it may get inflamed or infected, neither of which is pleasant.
...If I had known, I would have left a pair of socks.
Having lost both the fish and his shoes, Xie Yunsui didn't dare waste any more time. Although he had no experience surviving on a deserted island, he had watched many videos about it. He knew the three most important things to do on a deserted island were: first, finding fresh water, which he had barely accomplished. Second, building a fire—it would keep away nearby wild animals, provide heat, and allow him to cook food. Third, building a shelter from the wind and rain. The temperature difference between day and night was significant, and prolonged exposure to the cold would put him at risk of hypothermia. Add in the wind and rain, and survival would be hell.
He began to collect the things he liked that could be picked near the pond, and the little bees also helped to find supplies.
Xie Yunsui picked the large leaves first. A tree can only pick two large leaves at most. If there are more, it will be impossible to pick more.
Xie Yunsui slowly recalled the setting of this small world, which was a dimension derived from the game world. When he applied the game thinking to it, he instantly understood all the unreasonable things mentioned above.
He is now "collecting" with his bare hands, and each time he collects, he gets a supply, which is not calculated entirely according to the number of fruits and leaves growing on the tree.
Unfortunately, he missed the blueberries and red berries he saw on the way here. It would be time-consuming and laborious to go back and pick them, so Xie Yunsui cleared out all the things that could be "collected" near the pond.
Two large pieces of stone, a hard stone with sharp edges, five thin and sturdy sticks, six pieces of wood as thick as arms, and two large pieces of wood as thick as bowls.
The fish in the pond kept swimming around, tempting Xie Yunsui, but he couldn't catch them no matter what. Instead, he went to the bamboo forest and dug up six bamboo shoots.
The clear sky suddenly turned gray. It was early night, and Xie Yunsui was still exploring outside. He knew that small animals were more active in the dark. Although he had only seen two birds and three frogs, there were inevitably large animals spying in the dark. It was too dangerous to stay outside, so he hurried to the edge of the pond.
In fact, it was not a good place. Since it was the only water source on the island, there would inevitably be animals gathering there to drink water. However, he had been sweeping there for the entire afternoon and was familiar with the terrain. If he stayed a little away from the water, he should be able to rest for the night.
It was getting dark and a cold wind was blowing. Xie Yunsui felt like there was a dark shadow following him. As he was walking, he suddenly tripped.
Little Bee stopped and scanned it: "Shopkeeper, this is a notebook."
The paper was brittle and hard, half of it sunk into the soil. Xie Yunsui spent half a minute digging it out, not daring to waste time reading what was written on it. As soon as he returned to the place he had chosen to live, the sky became even darker, so dark that he could not see his hand in front of him. The only sounds he could hear were the wind and the occasional bird call.
Very hungry, thirsty and tired.
He swallowed and thought of the pool.
When one is extremely hungry and thirsty, one cannot care about so many things. This world is derived from a game, so the unreasonably clean water in the pond does not seem to be worth being suspicious of. Xie Yunsui climbed up and groped his way to the pond. After walking for a while, he finally touched the moist soil. He reached out and found the water was ice-cold.
Xie Yunsui leaned over and drank several mouthfuls of water until he was full before going back. He stepped on something and touched it. It seemed to be bamboo shoots.
He peeled the bamboo shoots in the dark, and many images of giant pandas eating bamboo shoots flashed through his mind. He put it to his mouth and took a big bite. It was crisp and refreshing, but strangely, it tasted like vegetables, not bamboo shoots.
He was so hungry that he ate all six bamboo shoots in a row, just enough to fill his stomach.
I didn't fall asleep the whole night. I was still tense and couldn't fall asleep even though there were little bees keeping watch.
I don’t know how long it took, but the sky was bright.
