Chapter 44

Zhang Liu and Anya briefly encountered Qin Rushuang, who had just returned from picking up wood on the beach, in the cave, and then they separated again.

Everyone has something for everyone.

Qin Rushuang planned to make a fire after collecting this wave of wood, then went to the grassland with the deep hole to collect some hay and come back.

Although the foam panel padding under the body has soft and warm properties.

But after those two nights of sleep, she also discovered a very killer feature of foam boards.

Stuffy and tight.

After feeling the texture of the soft grass personally at noon, Qin Rushuang thought that she could try using these tender wild grasses as sleeping mats.

If she sleeps well tonight, she will recommend this method to Zhang Liu and Anya.

She picked up a large handful of yellow grasses with distinct roots and stems from the ground and was about to turn around and leave when her eyes suddenly caught a glimpse of white.

After being stunned for a moment, Qin Rushuang clearly saw that this white patch was made up of several fat rabbits.

It seemed like it had been hidden under this bunch of weeds before.

After she pulled the cover away, they all stared at the tall, two-legged creature they had never seen before with their little black eyes.

The body is round, with little paws cradling under their chest, raised ears, and the three-petaled lips slightly open, as if they are still chewing the food they have just eaten, and at the same time, the beard on both sides of their cheeks is trembling slightly.

It's a cute and scared look.

The tender spot in her heart was instantly touched. Qin Rushuang dropped the grass and wanted to bend down to touch them.

But before she could extend her hand, several rabbits had already reacted, and after shouting “Oh,” they quickly disappeared.

“What a pity... What a cute bunny! It would be nice to be able to touch him.”

Qin Rushuang looked a little regretful as she spread the grass inside the cave and spoke to herself.

Later, she weeded several places, but no rabbits were seen.

At this time, a feeling of hunger came to her stomach, and Qin Rushuang's movements suddenly stopped, and her expression became more solid.

A terrible idea flashed through her mind.

These cute bunnies look like they have a lot of meat.

It's okay if you don't bring up this idea.

As soon as she came out, Qin Rushuang's mind seemed to be possessed, and she began to think about the rabbit dishes seen in various online videos.

Braised rabbit meat, spicy rabbit head, stewed rabbit with carrots...

She swallowed desperately, picked up the jiabao fruit that Zhang had left in the cave, and put a few in her mouth to relieve her hunger. Then, her eyes began to wander towards the grass where she had just seen the rabbit.

Can she think of a way to catch some rabbits...

This is Qin Rushuang's only thought at the moment.

As "healthy" workers, Zhang Liu and Anya also have their tasks.

Being a boy, Zhang Liu, who is fit for hard work, searches for various oysters that can be eaten and preserved in the seawater that is only more than one meter deep after low tide.

The novice fisherman could not meet the luxury of yesterday's big fish from the sky again today.

However, the harvest was very good, and after a while, the large clam in the basin that Zhang Liu had discovered in the water as a container was already full.

The shells are all intact.

The shell, which was incomplete and fit for dinner, he directly broke into pieces, cleaned the shell, leaving only the meat, and then placed it in the coconut shell next to him.

Almost done.

As he emerged from the sea in his underwear, Zhang Liu looked at Anya, who was digging hard on the beach, and asked, “What is your crop?”

After deciding on a plan to set up tomorrow's sheep trap, food storage became a top priority.

So he and Anya are currently fighting on two fronts. Zhang Liu is in charge of the more dangerous task of fishing in the water, while Anya scavenges various types of food left on the beach after the tide goes out.

“Well, there are four crabs and some starfish and clams...” When she answered, Anya, who had been bending down to pull hard on the beach, suddenly showed a frustrated expression, then raised her palm from the sand.

A half-broken oyster lay in her palm.

"..." Zhang Liu suddenly couldn't hold back his laughter.

Anya looked embarrassed and said, “The harvest is not bad!”

When she said this, she pointed to the simple white foam box placed next to her with a proud face.

This was done by Zhang Liu by cutting off two redundant foam boards in the cave and then using the branches as stable support.

It has a large capacity, and Anya spent half a day searching for seafood, but she did not fill it to the bottom.

Four large blue crabs kept crawling inside and making a rustling sound.

From time to time, they would pick up the starfish with their pincers and swing it around.

Or taste the assorted oysters that Anya crushed.

Looking at this scene, Zhang Liu felt more at ease.

Regardless of the situation of hunting sheep tomorrow, he would leave the cave the day after tomorrow, bid farewell to Anya and Qin Rushuang, and then go to the wreckage to explore where the important supplies were likely to be.

The only tool at hand is a sharp piece of metal, which does not meet the basic requirements of building a ship, going to sea, or camping for a long time.

Now that it was easy to find a lot of food on this beach, Zhang Liu didn't have to worry too much about Qin Rushuang and Anya running out of food when he was gone.

He also thought about the scene where Qin Rushuang and Anya met each other just now.

Originally, Zhang Liu was worried that the two would encounter a terrible situation, such as cold violence or even direct conflict.

But after the meeting, Qin Rushuang was the first to show an apologetic smile, and then Anya lowered her head and said nothing.

The two then started talking about their own ideas and arrangements for the meeting.

The potential conflict inexplicably disappeared.

“Let's go, classmate Anya; we have to go back.” Zhang Liu turned to look at the sun that had turned red and was setting; he knew it was late.

Without waiting for his clothes to dry, he directly knotted his shirt sleeves into a bag, put his pants and socks inside the package, and tied them behind his back.

Coconut shells containing the meat are stacked inside the shells and held with both hands.

Zhang Liu was barefoot and was about to return to the cave with Anya, who was already carrying a simple sponge box in front of him.

But after advancing dozens of meters, he turned around and found Anya standing, not moving.

“Classmate Anya?” Zhang Liu suddenly felt a little strange, so he quickly ran to Anya and asked, “What’s wrong with you?”

Anya didn't speak yet; she just lowered her head and looked at the seafood in the foam box. Her face was so calm that no emotions at all could be seen.

Then Zhang Liu, who was beside her, actually waited until her heart became extremely anxious and then whispered, “How was my performance this evening?”

"Haa?" Zhang Liu was stunned for a moment, then quickly nodded and said, “It was great!”

After thinking about it, he knew that Anya seemed to like being praised, so he added, “Classmate Anya, you have always been great!”

Hearing this sentence, Anya's expression suddenly became a little annoyed. After taking a deep breath, she turned to look at Zhang Liu seriously, then said, “Anya!... If you want me to work hard in the future, you are not allowed to call me a colleague; you should just call me Anya!”

Zhang Liu was a little confused by Anya's appearance, and after being stunned for a long time, he said, "An? Anya?"

(PS: He always calls them colleagues, but I don’t write them down. Currently, he will call Anya by her name normally)

"Let's go! Let's go back!" Taking the initiative to walk in front of Zhang Liu, Anya's steps suddenly became fast.

But halfway through, she still emphasized in a very serious tone, “In front of your classmate Qin Rushuang, you have to call me Anya; otherwise, I won’t listen to you!”

While was saying, 'classmate Qin Rushuang' she was extremely clear.

After saying that, Anya quickened her pace again, and her beautiful face was already full of blush.
