Basically, his daily routine consisted of getting up in the morning to prepare the day's food, and then digging irrigation ditches. Although he only had one hand, he was quite efficient.
In this regard, my younger sister was also a great help. She didn't have to worry about digging the irrigation ditch, and when she came back in the evening, she cleaned up the vegetable garden in the yard that had been ruined.
Newly transplanted wild vegetables have been planted inside, but the weeds need to be pulled very frequently. If they are pulled clean on the first day, they will reappear on the second day.
He entrusted this task to Naituan, who diligently tended his vegetable garden every day.
A real-life version of Mole's World.
The biggest problem right now is actually the crocodile. I have to say, crocodile meat is really to my liking. It's high in protein, the meat is firm, and it doesn't have the strong fishy smell of other sea fish. In short, it's very much to my liking.
He can't fish now, as he only has one hand available. If a larger fish comes up, he can't handle it, so he only goes to the crevices of the reefs to catch small things like lobsters, sea urchins, and abalone.
He needed to come up with a new way to catch crocodiles. Since the soft approach wasn't working, he decided to try a hard one.
Li Sheng sat on the ground with the rattan he had collected that day beside him. These rattans were different from the ones he had collected before; they were very thick, about the thickness of an index finger.
Slowly, Li Sheng wove them into a net, just like the one SpongeBob used to catch jellyfish, only a super-sized version.
The other end of the net wasn't sealed off either; there was a hole about the size of a palm.
The crocodile's mouth could fit through this hole, but it would get stuck due to its size.
It's also very sturdy.
The next morning, Li Sheng set off with it, along with a relatively lightweight stone spear he had made, in addition to the net.
The sharp end was coated with snake venom.
This time, he brought Da Mei instead of Cuihua.
The girl is big enough that she can sit on the crocodile and hold it down.
As soon as Li Sheng approached, the crocodiles retreated as if they had seen a ghost, hiding in the pond overgrown with aquatic plants. He could only catch glimpses of their eyes occasionally.
He took out the internal organs and tested them; the group showed no reaction. They probably had psychological trauma, knowing that there's always a price to pay for something that seems too good to be true.
But Li Sheng wasn't annoyed.
I stood at a distance, observing them from their territory, to see which one suited my taste.
There was a huge one that was closest to him, and he even blinked when he looked at it.
"Trying to seduce me with flirtatious glances? Very well, Crocodile, you've successfully caught my attention."
With a wicked smirk, he moved with lightning speed, trapping the crocodile. Not only was the crocodile caught off guard, but the viewers watching the live stream were also caught off guard, their minds still replaying Li Sheng's words.
"Winking? Seducing? You've successfully caught my attention? This line sounds so familiar."
"A wild version of the domineering jungle king has fallen in love with me?"
"This love came out of nowhere, Crocodile is so scared."
"Crocodile, I never thought I'd ever flirt with anyone in my life."
"The crocodile's eyes just got mud and sand in them."
"Crocodile said, please let me explain, things are not as you think."
"Crocodile declares that he will never submit, even if you get my body you will never get my heart."
Ah! I had no choice but to comply. Mr. Li said, "All I need is your body."
However, with only one hand, he was having a hard time dealing with the crocodile. As the temperature rose, the crocodile became more active.
The younger sister was a little afraid of death, unlike Cuihua, who rushed up and tore at Li Sheng's command.
The cowardly young woman didn't dare to risk her life, but she still went ahead, raising one of her large, dark feet and stomping hard on the crocodile's body. However, judging from her movements, it was clear that once the crocodile broke free of the net, the young woman would definitely have to retreat.
However, the young woman was no pushover; after a few kicks, the crocodile was completely disoriented and disoriented.
Li Sheng took the opportunity to loosen his grip on his right hand, picked up his stone spear, and stabbed it into the crocodile's body.
The right hand was very strong, piercing directly into the crocodile's body. The crocodile struggled even more fiercely and had already escaped his control.
Just as everyone had guessed, the young woman was afraid of dying and retreated.
However, the young woman did not disappoint everyone. She ran towards Li Sheng, grabbed the pole of the net, and dragged the crocodile backward. Although the crocodile struggled, it could not break free from the net's restraint.
The young woman was incredibly strong after eating so much; she could easily pull a crocodile along with one hand, and she ran incredibly fast. Li Sheng almost couldn't stop her.
By the time Li Sheng called out to her and caught up with the young woman, the crocodile was already on the verge of death.
Judging that the snake venom had taken effect by now, Li Sheng confidently removed the net and swiftly and accurately chopped off the crocodile's head with an axe.
Today's food search is complete.
...
The next day, he and the older sister, along with the same equipment, returned to the crocodiles.
Li Sheng: "You audacious crocodile, how dare you fart so sweetly in front of me? Are you trying to seduce me? Well, you've succeeded."
audience!!!???
"Do crocodiles fart? And their farts smell good?"
"Shockingly amazing! Crocodiles can fart, and it even has a seductive effect."
"Is that farting crocodile? It looks more like a streamer's mouth!"
Shocking! A streamer actually made a crocodile take the blame to cover up his own farting.
"Crocodile, no, no, I really didn't fart."
...
The modus operandi was exactly the same as yesterday. Having had the experience of the first time, the young woman became more uninhibited, especially excited when dragging the crocodile, even to the point of being somewhat perverse.
Finally, the crocodile was also dismembered with a large axe and put into a basket.
Besides the crocodiles, he also found another treasure: a crocodile egg with baby crocodiles inside.
He's never eaten crocodile eggs before.
However, he still had some bottom lines. He didn't touch the small crocodiles, which were less than the size of his arm, and he also inspected the crocodile eggs under the sunlight.
He didn't touch the baby crocodiles that were already fully formed and about to hatch; he only took the pure, carefully selected crocodile eggs.
As people, we shouldn't be so ruthless. Going to extremes is not good. Resources should be developed sustainably.
Time flies. After the irrigation canal was dug and the water source was brought back to the reservoir, things became completely relaxed. There were only twenty-five days left until the end.
He also missed home and wondered how his parents-in-law were doing, and whether they were taking good care of themselves as he had told them.
I wonder how Zhang Hang's father is doing, whether the hit-and-run driver has been found, whether he has moved on from his ex-girlfriend, and whether he has found a new partner.
After enduring these twenty-odd days, I'll be practically a small-time millionaire when I get out of here, so I'm definitely going to live life to the fullest.
