Chapter 71

In addition to the news that Qiao Sheng told them at noon today that it was difficult to obtain supplies from the sea, some people in Pei Hong's fleet are now a little panicked.

"Why are they panicking? From now on, even if they go fishing every day and use a colander to catch supplies, they can collect a lot. It shouldn't be a problem to survive this winter. Even if they take a step back, Pei Hong shouldn't be so unsuccessful." Qiao Sheng packed the ingredients for dinner. Thinking that she had to take Xia Beibei's portion, she made some more.

Li Mu also felt that it should be fine. Pei Hong must have been prepared in advance. He even suspected that this might be a planned further cleanup team. The method is actually quite good. There is no need to tear the face to persuade them to retreat, but it is easy to cause panic.

Qiao Sheng mentioned it to Li Mu, and then told Fang Yueyi that she would take care of the potatoes and sweet potatoes, but she would only take care of Fang Yueyi and Xu Ziyan, which was a concession for the two of them, so if someone really tried to fool them, they could just ignore it. Pei Hong was actually a good person.

Fang Yueyi said she understood, but now she and Xu Ziyan were fishing and collecting supplies almost all day, so it would be no problem to survive this winter.

After chatting, they continued to work on the fifty fish. It was actually a waste of time to kill them, and Qiao Sheng was not easy to chop the fish into paste. The efforts of the two were all for this bite of food. Before

dinner, Li Mu finally packed everything up. There were not many species caught this time, but most of them were meaty and had few bones, and Qiao Sheng was very satisfied.

Most of the dinners were sashimi. She didn't have to work hard to make squid on the teppanyaki grill. She just threw it on the grill. The only thing that needed to be cooked was the fish ball soup noodles. Li Mu rolled a lot of noodles. Qiao Sheng cooked a pot of fish ball soup in a large iron pot. He took out the fish balls and put them in the soup separately. After cooking, he served them and added the fish balls on top.

This noodle bowl was specially made by Li Mu with mud and sand. It was an oversized noodle bowl. He made this bowl because it was too painful to eat noodles and drink soup with the coconut bowl before. The bowl was too small and it was difficult to use.

The iron basin was used to send to Xia Beibei, because there were only two large noodle bowls at home. A coconut bowl was used to put a bowl of raw marinated salmon strips and a little wasabi sauce. Xia Beibei was very surprised when she received it, and she sent 500 pieces of charcoal to Qiao Sheng. After asking, she found out that it was just opened and she kept enough for herself. She

also said that if Sister Qiao didn't want it, she looked down on her. Originally, she wanted to exchange these extra supplies for food. She was happiest to exchange with Sister Qiao because she made delicious food. Anyway, she was very happy to coax Qiao Sheng with a lot of flattery.

Before finishing the meal, Qiao Sheng first collected the chili peppers in the four planting pots on the kang. There were still a lot of them in the storage box in the kitchen. She was going to continue planting tomorrow, so she simply mailed them all to Fang Yueyi.

After moving all the planting pots out, the two of them went to the kang to eat. They hadn't eaten sashimi for a long time, and they ate it quickly. It was really delicious. Li Mu even ate three bowls of fish ball soup noodles. Qiao Sheng also ate a lot. After finishing one bowl, he added some noodles and a lot of fish balls.

After the meal, they cleaned up the dishes and chopsticks. Neither of them mentioned sleeping. They silently took their tools back to the first-floor cabin and started fishing and catching.

The duckling had eaten three meals of shark meat a day today. He was lying in his nest savoring the delicious food. Suddenly he saw his two owners coming down to work. He was a little confused. He is now much bigger than when he first came. He can use all four limbs to climb out of the wooden board with his head. He also communicates with the duck from time to time.

The duck neck is a little better after being tied, but the sound has become rougher, quack, and very unpleasant.

"You said these two guys stared at us when we were talking and said bad things to us from time to time?" Qiao Sheng asked the person sitting next to him in a low voice, holding the fishing rod.

"I think your guess may be the truth. These two guys are too serious. No one can believe that they don't have bad intentions. I guess they just want to eat and drink for free." Li Mu also answered in a low voice.

The two of them sat on a low stool, talking in a low voice with their heads together, which was similar to the two animals opposite them. Then the two sides fell into a stalemate. In the end, the two animals still lost. They really didn't dare to force it. For a midnight snack, they would have to eat three meals later. It didn't count.

Qiao Sheng used up four fishing rods and Li Mu used up two sieves. The two of them successfully digested the food. Otherwise, it would be too uncomfortable to sleep with a stomach full.

After covering the floating board, the two put the things into the storage box together, and they would pack them up together tomorrow morning after finishing the work. When putting them away, they took a look. Li Mu had caught more than 40 drift bottles this morning and evening, which was much less than before.

Qiao Sheng caught an unfamiliar fish. After checking the game prompts, it was called blue-spotted Spanish mackerel, but the fish looked familiar to her, so she should eat it often.

It was Li Mu who told her another name for blue-spotted Spanish mackerel - Spanish mackerel. Qiao Sheng thought there were several of them in it, and she could make Spanish mackerel-filled dumplings tomorrow, which would be delicious.

Li Mu told her that she might not have time to make dumplings in the next two days, so she would go back to clean the inside and put them aside, and make dumplings when she had time.

"Why? Does making dumplings also depend on the day? What are we going to do tomorrow? Isn't it just fishing and collecting supplies?" Qiao Sheng didn't understand. "

Mackerel don't live in the deep sea. Most of them live in the upper and middle layers of the near sea. They only swim over to hibernate in winter. So I estimate that we are not far from the island. We will encounter the island tomorrow night or the morning after tomorrow at the latest." Li Mu began to popularize science.

Thinking that they would start the stockpiling mode tomorrow and the day after tomorrow, the two did not waste time. After a quick wash, they went back to the warming room to sleep. Just after breakfast in the morning, Qiao Sheng heard the system prompt that had not appeared for a long time.

The system gave them a time of this evening when they would be able to drift to the vicinity of the island. At the moment, there were two boats in the nearby waters, heading towards the island with them. The two boats were drifting towards the island from different directions, with two people on one boat and three people on the other.

Qiao Sheng was not used to the prompts given by the system this time. They were too detailed and there were always pitfalls. Was there something wrong with this abnormality?

She told Li Mu about the system prompts and raised her own reasonable doubts. Li Mu said that it was not the case. In a game, there must be good people and bad people, but it was impossible for them to meet bad people every time. That would be too unlucky.

"It's hard to say about the probability. Xia Beibei said the other day that she had been in the game for a long time, but she had never seen an island. She had never been to an island or to the sea. She lived by scavenging supplies. The point is that she lived a comfortable life. In contrast, the people in Pei Hong's fleet were miserable. They worked a lot but didn't save any property." Qiao Sheng shook his head. "

Those of us who have some property can only eat more. We dare not do anything else. The ship is still in the repair stage. Do we dare to upgrade to a level 4 ship now? I looked at the panel requirements. For a level 4 ship, the float must be doubled. How many supplies are needed to fill this hole?" Li Mu sighed. He really felt that he couldn't afford to live.

Qiao Sheng also said that they still had no weapons on the ship. They had not opened the ammunition map for the cannon, so they could just leave it alone. They had not yet made and installed the catapult, because they needed too many supplies.

It was useless to think so much, so the two decided to do something practical first. Today, Li Mu went fishing and Qiao Sheng collected supplies. They could only do the same thing, which was a bit boring.

Facts have proved that the Emperor of Europe can be fully utilized in any place. Li Mu caught 30% more fish than Qiao Sheng this morning. Qiao Sheng caught one fish every five minutes, while they estimated that it took Li Mu only three minutes, which was nearly half the time.

In less than four hours this morning, Li Mu used eight fishing rods and caught fifty fish, ten squids, and ten rolls of kelp. The rest were just odds and ends. Qiao Sheng went over and rummaged around and found two rusty clocks, two rusty safes, three large iron products, a rusty metal crossbow, and two porcelains.

"If you keep fishing like this, I think I'm going to get jealous. This game is too unfair. I can't catch more bottles than you, and they treat us differently when fishing." Qiao Sheng felt that this game was a bit unfair.

"It's okay. They're all ours. Besides, maybe you'll get lucky and catch something big next time. You see, I'm just playing around. There are a lot of things, but none of them are really useful." Li Mu comforted him.

He had a simple lunch at noon and sent a portion to Xia Beibei. Of course, he explained the reason for the simple meal. Xia Beibei said that this was good enough.

In the afternoon, the two of them were still dissecting fish. Li Mu caught too many fish, so they were really busy all afternoon. After hanging all the fish and kelp that needed to be dried on the drying rack, they discovered an important problem. There was still a big shark on the bow that had not been cleaned up, which made the workload even greater.

However, considering that they were not far from the island and could see the island from the boat, Li Mu decided to take the liver of a shark and boil some cod liver oil. He still had Panax notoginseng and artificial skin film at home, but the amount of cod liver oil was not much, but there was still some chondroitin.

There are other players on the island this time, so it is necessary to prepare medicines in advance. There are unknown animals on the island and unknown players around, and I always feel that there are many dangers. At this time, Qiao Sheng's mentality is still good. She chopped two black fish meat pastes and prepared to make fish ball soup.

Eat half tonight and half tomorrow morning. Eat full and warm all over before going to the island to work. Even if there are bad guys, the two of them are flexible and can run away if they can't beat them.
