Now, it's Monet who's embarrassed.
She chuckled sheepishly and said, "Sorry, Ningning, I forgot about that."
"fine."
Sang Ning didn't take it to heart. She put down the wooden plank in her hand, stood up and stretched her body. After checking the time, she said to Mo Nainai, "The tide is almost out now. There should be a lot of good stuff on the beach. Let's go and pick some up."
"good."
Monet, who gets excited when it comes to food, excitedly stacked all the wooden planks that Sang Ning had carved together and carried them into the shed made of bamboo and fern leaves.
Then he picked up a basket, carried it on his back, and took one out for Sang Ning. He then said happily, like a bird released from its cage, "Ning Ning, we can set off now."
Sang Ning nodded, and the two of them went down the mountain and arrived at the seaside half an hour later.
The tide had completely receded by then, and this time the sea was not the coastline they used to frequent, but in a different direction.
Then, instead of being drawn to the lively seafood on the beach, Sang Ning's attention was drawn to several tall coconut trees not far away.
These coconut trees are really tall, and the amount of fruit they bear is astonishing. The huge coconuts are crowded together, like a string of coconuts.
She stared intently at the coconuts, swallowing hard, wanting to drink the coconut juice.
Coconuts are wonderful; every part of them is valuable.
Coconut juice is fine to drink, and it can also be used in soups or other dishes.
Coconut meat can be made into coconut oil, and young coconuts can be made into shredded coconut, etc.
In addition, coconuts also have the effects of quenching thirst, promoting urination and reducing swelling.
"Nana, would you like some coconut?"
"ah?"
Mo Nai Nai, who was intently watching the crabs crawling on the beach and deciding which one to catch, paused for a moment before realizing what she was talking about. She then exclaimed with delight, "Coconuts? Where are the coconuts?"
"There."
Sang Ning pointed to the coconut tree, and Mo Nai Nai, who was looking in the direction she was pointing, fell silent.
After a long pause, he said quietly, "The tree is so tall, I'd estimate it's at least twenty or thirty meters."
"Um."
Sang Ning nodded, "The trunk is smooth and it's not easy to climb."
"Do you want to eat?"
Swallowing hard, Monet asked her.
Sang Ning nodded, "I think so. Coconuts are a good thing. It would be nice to bring some back to improve the taste."
At this point, she said with some regret, "It's a pity it's too high."
"Actually, I have a way to pick coconuts."
Monet said something, and Sang Ning immediately looked over, only to find that she looked troubled. She asked in surprise, "Is there something you're having trouble with?"
"have."
Monet nodded, then looked at the live stream and said, "Manager, aren't coconut trees protected trees?!"
【no! 】
The person in charge roughly understood what she was going to do and promptly replied, "Don't worry, we'll alert them if we encounter protected species."
"That puts my mind at ease."
With a beaming smile, Mo Nai took off her basket and placed it on the beach. She rubbed her hands together before excitedly saying, "Ningning, wait for me, I'm going to pick coconuts."
Before she finished speaking, she shot off like an arrow.
It was incredibly fast; it had gone far away in no time.
Sang Ning blinked. The people in this world not only had astonishing strength, but also astonishing speed.
Fortunately, she had a trump card.
With a crisp 'crack', the tall coconut tree was snapped in two by Monet's kick.
Sang Ning watched helplessly as the coconut tree snapped in half and crashed to the ground with a thud, feeling utterly resigned.
Destroying a tree for a few coconuts is the same as killing the goose that lays the golden eggs or draining the pond to catch all the fish.
"Ningning, come quickly."
Mo Nai Nai's cheerful voice came from behind, and Sang Ning responded with a "hey!" and ran over with her basket on her back.
"Give!"
As soon as she ran up to Monet, Monet handed her a huge coconut.
"Thanks!"
Sang Ning reached out and took it, then used the dagger he carried to make a small hole in it before handing it to Mo Nainai.
"Try it."
Monet didn't stand on ceremony; she reached out, scooped up a coconut, and poured it into her mouth.
After taking a sip of coconut water, her eyes sparkled as she exclaimed, "What a refreshing and sweet coconut water! I hereby declare that coconut water has now ascended to the throne of my favorite drink!"
"Honey lemonade has been dethroned just like that?"
Sang Ning was both amused and exasperated. Mo Nainai nodded and said solemnly, "Coconut water tastes better than honey lemon water. Honey lemon water is a bit sour, and blueberry jam is also a bit sour."
"Then let's drink coconut juice."
Sang Ning opened one for himself, and then sat on the beach with Mo Nai Nai to enjoy the sweetness of fresh coconuts.
[Ningning and Nana, don't just drink it yourselves, give us a taste too.]
A dazzling golden special effects barrage appeared in front of the two of them. Mo Naina complained, "The more you taste food in the virtual world, the hungrier you get. If you want to drink coconut, can't you just order it from the store? Why do you have to be so foolish as to do this virtual tasting?"
[I've already placed the order, but I'll just rave about it for now.]
[Okay, Nana, stop talking nonsense and just give us the coconut, okay?]
Just as Monet was about to speak, Sang Ning opened the smallest coconut for them.
"Try it, and then let Nana drink it."
Monet looked at the size of the coconut and nodded, "Okay, this isn't too big, I can handle it."
Yes, besides being fast and strong, elite races also have a great need for food.
Of all the people, Sang Ning has the smallest appetite.
To use a more vivid analogy, Sang Ning eats with a bowl, while Monet and Fimonloa eat with soup bowls.
As for Mu Tao and the others, they were given huge bowls; one bowl wasn't enough, they needed two.
Many times, Sang Ning felt that she was feeding not people, but some kind of creature.
After eating the two coconuts, one large and one small, Monet let out a burp without any regard for her image.
"I feel a bit too full right now."
She touched her belly, stood up, and reached out her hand to Sang Ning, "Ningning, let's go do some exercise."
Sang Ning hummed in agreement and went with her to collect seafood as a form of exercise to aid digestion.
···
A giant sea turtle was riding the waves, and Mu Tao and the others sat huddled together on its back, staring at the survival pack in the center of the turtle's shell.
"This size is a bit unexpected."
Phylloa said expressionlessly, "The production team is really something else. They've already distributed survival packs, why didn't they distribute larger ones?"
"Such a small package can't hold much."
"I feel like something's not right."
Of the four survival packs, Clyde and Luo Tianya each took one, while Emmanuel and his group took the remaining two.
Clyde, who had personally stolen the survival kit and carried it all the way to the sea, began to have doubts about it.
"There's a lot of stuff in the survival kit, conservatively estimated to be over 300 kilograms."
"How many?"
Fimmonloa turned her head sharply to look at him, incredulously asking, "You're saying these survival kits weigh over 300 pounds?"
Clyde hummed in agreement. "I have the red-label survival pack I grabbed, but I'm not sure about the other three."
