After chatting for a while, Liu Feifei felt sleepy and soon fell into a deep sleep.
Chen Fan, on the other hand, was waiting for the system to check in.
Today is the sixth day of survival, and the newbie protection period has not yet ended, so you can still sign in tonight.
However, once the one-week newbie protection period is over, you'll have to wait a whole month to sign in!
Time flew by, and before we knew it, it was past 10 p.m.
Unsurprisingly, the system's voice rang out in his mind.
[Ding! Congratulations, host, on completing the sixth day's challenge. You may now check in for the sixth day. Would you like to check in?]
"Check-in..."
Chen Fan silently recited it in his mind.
[Congratulations, host, on completing the sixth day of check-in. Reward: Advanced Free Climbing Technique]
The system's synthesized mechanical voice sounded again.
Although the reward this time was advanced technology, Chen Fan was not happy at all.
Because advanced free solo climbing techniques seemed to be of little use to him.
Although the terrain of this deserted island is not flat, they have never seen any terrain similar to cliffs.
Moreover, he wouldn't take such a risk unless it was an emergency, so free climbing really wouldn't be very useful for him.
But since it's a system reward, it's better than nothing!
After I complete the challenge and leave this deserted island, I might become a free solo climbing streamer, which should be quite popular.
With his physical abilities exceeding those of an average person by seven times, coupled with his advanced rock climbing skills, he will definitely be able to easily surpass those foreign free solo climbing masters!
After receiving the sign-in reward, Chen Fan quickly fell asleep.
Chen Fan woke up early the next morning, just as dawn was breaking.
As my physical fitness improves, my sleep time becomes shorter, and I wake up feeling refreshed every day.
No matter how tired you are the day before, you'll feel refreshed and rejuvenated after a good night's sleep.
After getting up, Chen Fan quickly washed up.
Then I went to take a look at the fishing cages.
We caught a few more stream fish, but they were getting smaller and smaller, and their numbers were gradually decreasing.
It seems impossible to survive by relying on these stream fish.
Catching prey remains the top priority...
Having survived for only six days, Chen Fan had already noticed that Liu Feifei had lost some weight compared to when she first started.
Although they did not go hungry during this period, and were able to supplement their diet with plenty of protein every day.
However, a certain amount of fat intake is also necessary for long-term survival...
Whether it's pheasant or stream fish, the protein content is indeed very high, but the fat content is very low, even pitifully low!
These stream fish, in particular, have almost no fat content.
If this continues, their weight will definitely decrease, which will affect their chances of survival!
"Looks like we'll have to hunt some large prey!"
"This is to ensure that the body gets enough fat."
Chen Fan thought to himself.
If you manage to hunt a wild boar or other large animal, it will definitely have a high fat content.
It shouldn't be a problem to last for half a month.
A short while later, Liu Feifei also woke up.
Good morning, Chen Fan!
As always, she said sweetly, "Good morning" to Chen Fan.
After a quick wash, I started making breakfast.
In fact, Liu Feifei could also clearly feel that she had lost a lot of weight...
However, he didn't know why, even though he ate his fill every day, and even ate too much last night.
The intake of protein, carbohydrates, and other vitamins is sufficient.
Why does weight loss still occur?
After a simple dinner, the two continued building their shelter.
Because the roof uses an inverted V-shaped structure, the walls on the left and right sides need to be built into two isosceles triangles.
This step is quite troublesome.
Because all the materials needed must be accurately measured and cut, the time required is naturally longer.
"Chen Fan, what should I do now?"
Because Chen Fan is currently busy with the topping-out work, Liu Feifei doesn't have much to do.
"Okay, go to the stream and get some broad-leaved plants, preferably banana leaves or palm leaves, which can be used to seal the roof later..."
"Then we'll find some hibiscus bark to use for securing the rafters and main beam!"
Chen Fan also assigned some tasks to Liu Feifei.
After all, there are many things to do right now, and it's quite chaotic, so he definitely can't do it all by himself.
Even if you manage to finish them, these trivial tasks will waste a lot of time.
If these tasks are delegated to Liu Feifei, the two of them will work much more efficiently.
"Alright!!"
"Leave this small matter to me!"
Liu Feifei nodded happily, then grabbed the machete and went off to work.
She wasn't afraid of being tired; what she feared most was having nothing to do.
She would feel useless and unable to help Chen Fan.
Meanwhile, Chen Fan also began to work diligently.
The framework of an isosceles triangle needs to be made very sturdy.
If you use ordinary tree bark for binding, the bark will loosen and collapse once it dries, so you can't use tree bark for fixing.
The best method is inlay...
Two logs are sawn to create complementary grooves, and then perfectly inlaid.
This method is very popular among traditional craftsmen!
This way of securing it is very strong, and the tight fit will not be affected over time.
People feel incredibly comfortable after completing such a tight and perfect setting, as the size is just right.
This inlay technique is equally applicable to woodworking.
The drawback of this method is that it takes a very, very long time...
However, for the sake of the shelter's sturdiness, Chen Fan did not hesitate or struggle at all and directly used this inlay method.
...
Time flies by.
A day may be a long time for some contestants, but it is very short for Chen Fan and his team.
Soon it was five or six o'clock in the afternoon.
At this point, the basic framework of the shelter had been completed.
The main beams and rafters have also been secured...
The same inlay method is used, and in some places, ropes woven from tree bark are used for secondary fixation.
An exquisite wooden cabin frame is complete!
Now all that's needed is to lay down a tarpaulin and plant broad-leaved plants on the roof, and the project is complete...
Its ability to shield from wind and rain is absolutely top-notch.
"Wow!! Is our house finally going to be built? I'm so happy!"
"Chen Fan, can we move into the new house tonight?"
Looking at the exquisite little wooden house in front of her, Liu Feifei was so happy that she danced with joy.
The thought of moving into my new house tonight makes me incredibly happy...
That feeling is even more exciting than winning a multi-million dollar lottery.
"Hmm, it should be fine..."
"Go and move the sleeping bags and all the other tools into the new house!"
Chen Fan nodded and then began the final capping work.
Once the tarpaulin and banana leaves are securely fastened to the roof, the job is done...
Besides blocking rain, the main purpose of banana leaves is to block sunlight and prevent the tarpaulin from being exposed to the sun and rotting.
