After soaking in the water for thirty or forty minutes, repeatedly diving, groping, and searching, I finally found the note tucked inside the small bottle.
The paper had coordinates drawn on it. She found two of them, but when she opened them, she found that the coordinates were different.
This was probably done intentionally to prevent cheating; they randomly picked one and threw the other back.
Climbing ashore, her lips trembled slightly from the cold. Covered in water, she carried her shoes and bundle, found a bush, and crawled inside to change her clothes.
To avoid catching a cold, rinse thoroughly with hot water and change into a dry sanitary pad and dry clothes.
Then, quickly wash the dirty clothes, hang them outside the warehouse to dry, and put all the gear back on.
They all had changes of clothes in their backpacks, so her actions weren't considered against the rules.
The only difference between her and the others was that her wet clothes were washed and hung to dry immediately, while the others had to pack them up and take them back to be washed.
I drank a cup of brown sugar ginger water to warm my stomach, and ate a steamed bun with dried radish to replenish my energy.
After resting for a while, we saw our comrades coming from different directions.
Without exception, everyone was soaking wet, and they were all surprised to see her: "You haven't gone into the water yet?"
Xiao Jiu patted her backpack. "You guys should hurry up and find a place to change your clothes, or you'll catch a cold."
During their freshman year, they received extensive training in swimming, diving, and drowning rescue.
I never expected that we would start field training in our second year of university, with professional search and rescue personnel within two kilometers for each subject.
She believed that this technology would not be available for at least another ten years, as long as the trainees sent out a distress signal.
Besides swimming, there was also a wilderness survival training session today. We weren't given any rations for the day, and we were only given half a bottle of water.
The coordinates won't be available until at least tomorrow morning.
In other words, they would have to eat and live outdoors.
If she didn't have a space in this life, she would probably just honestly catch mice, dig wild vegetables, and drink river water.
But things didn't go as planned. She had her own space, so why did she have to suffer that torment?
Not eating means not wanting to eat, but it doesn't mean not taking the initiative.
The wilderness training also clearly states which foods are edible and which are not.
Different regions have different kinds of wild vegetables and small wild animals, and there are scientific methods for catching, skinning, and removing them.
For example, with snakes, which ones are venomous and which ones are non-venomous? How do you handle a venomous snake without ingesting its venom?
She had already eaten a large steamed bun and was full of energy. Especially since she ate much less today, she had a lot of leisure time to look for all sorts of holes.
As the saying goes, a cunning rabbit has three burrows.
As a military academy's field training base, how could it not have wild game?
Not only are there plenty, but there's also plenty; as long as you try, there's no food you can't catch.
Whatever we catch today is our spoils of war. We never had such leisure and pleasure before.
Throw away all the equipment, survey the terrain, and use the sharp dagger to cut down tree branches to enclose the rabbit hole.
Then he took his own blood-smelling garbage and put it at the entrance of the cave to fan the air inside.
Rabbits have a keen sense of smell and dislike strong odors, so she would definitely start a fire at night.
Lighting a fire during the day will produce smoke, which could easily reveal your location and attract attacks from senior students.
Not wanting to waste anything else, she chuckled mischievously and threw her used trash into the rabbit hole.
Leave only one opening, and use sanitary tape to fumigate the other two. All she needs to do is wait at the last opening with a cloth bag.
Time passed by, and just when she thought there might be no rabbits in the hole, wait...
A plump gray rabbit poked its head out, and Xiao Jiu grabbed it with lightning speed. The rabbits behind it were so frightened that they ran back inside in a panic.
She wasn't in a hurry, so she just lay down nearby, since the other two entrances were blocked anyway.
During this time, she even took out some attractively colored carrots to lure them in.
Who would have thought that eight rabbits would be hiding in that tiny rabbit hole?
There were two large ones, one male and one female, and the rest of the litter consisted of their babies.
The rabbits all looked healthy, and I realized I'd never eaten rabbit meat before.
With a wave of his hand, Xiao Jiu threw them all into the space.
Using the vacant space, they enclosed them with cardboard boxes.
Anyway, there are plenty of vegetable leaves in the space, so I can try feeding them.
She discovered that her space could hold living things only after she cleared out the area outside the warehouse.
If it weren't for this function, the Zhou brothers, Yue and Xing, wouldn't have been saved.
Having learned from her first experience catching a rabbit, Xiao Jiu became incredibly enthusiastic and started searching for rabbit burrows everywhere.
Perhaps it was the female lead's halo, but the second litter of rabbits had as many as twelve!
Six of them were newborns, which she dug out by digging into the ground. Luckily, she had good hearing, otherwise these babies would have starved to death.
Without the mother rabbit's protection, it wouldn't be an exaggeration to say they wouldn't survive the night.
She thoughtfully found a bunch of grass and put it in the space, and also found some old clothes to keep them warm.
After it got dark, they gathered dry twigs and straw to make a fire by rubbing sticks together and roasting the rabbit.
The energy from that one steamed bun had long been used up after an afternoon of waiting.
She can't eat snakes or mice, but rabbits are an option.
Although there was a lighter and matches available, this was her first time using fire-making by friction in the wild, something she had only done a few times before, so she absolutely couldn't be lazy.
Making fire by friction sounds easy, but it is extremely difficult to do.
Even after repeatedly striking sparks with a dagger and a stone, it took her more than an hour to finally ignite the fire.
It was only thanks to a wad of toilet paper and some dry hay that the branch caught fire.
Then, he took out a male rabbit weighing about two pounds from his spatial storage. Just as he was gesturing with a knife, indicating where to start, a second-year student wearing a blue armband walked over with ill intentions.
"Wow, junior, you're quite capable. You not only started a fire, but you also caught a rabbit."
"It's a pity you ran into me. If I had just ignored you and walked away, I would have been the one to get points deducted."
Xiao Jiu silently stuffed the rabbit into her backpack, zipped it up, put away the dagger, and raised an eyebrow to look over after standing still.
"How do we compete? Senior, don't be shy. If you can beat me, I'll keep it. If you can't, I'll give it to you to eat. It's all about winning and losing, that's the rule of the game."
"Your attitude is quite good. I've met three people like that today, and yours is the best."
You don't look very old, so how about we have a push-up contest?
The competitions between the senior students and the students were all selected from their daily training subjects.
Their daily training includes a light 5km run, parallel bars and horizontal bars, push-ups, sit-ups, and sprints.
Military skills training: disassembly, maintenance, and use of rifles; static shooting; individual tactics; basic boxing; drill training; 400-meter obstacle course; basic military training; ideological education; and in-depth physical training for the army.
Fully equipped for five kilometers, etc.
Now the senior student simply did a push-up, which is quite a gentlemanly act.
Some other subjects were impossible to complete, while others required a male-female competition. After thinking it through, Xiao Jiu gritted her teeth and agreed.
"Alright, let's have a push-up contest!"
