Chapter 85: A new food appears!
“Ah, well… Actually, it was captured with paper wrapped around it…” Hearing Qin Ruyan’s words, Zhang Liu, who had rushed over without washing his hands, suddenly felt a little embarrassed. He quickly explained to her, “You can peel it and eat it; don’t hesitate to eat it!”
“Well… I better take one.” She extended her hand to pick up the Salak fruit from the other party’s palm. Qin Ruyan gently rubbed the outer shell like snake scales with her fingertips. Then she said, "Should I peel it?"
"Yes! Peel it and open it!" Zhang Liu nodded, then took one as well.
The rest was placed on the ground.
He pinched hard with his fingernails, and a hole was instantly cut out of the snakeskin-like outer layer of the fruit.
Then it really looked like snake skin that had been peeled off.
Peel off the outside of the salak fruit to reveal the garlic-like flesh inside.
The Salak fruits that Zhang Liu picked after picking them were relatively large.
There are four fleshy petals inside, white with a little yellow inside, almost the same color as the socks on Qin Ruyan's feet.
He broke off a piece of it and put it in his mouth to chew. It tastes like coconut meat, but it is more fragile and sweeter than coconut meat.
Then he looked at Qin Ruyan, who was learning to peel it herself, and said, “It tastes good!”
"Umm……"
With a slight nod, Qin Ruyan also picked up a piece of meat and put it in her mouth to chew after the peeling was completed.
The sweetness she had not tasted in a long time made her whole body excited.
At the same time, Qin Ruyan felt helpless.
If she was brave enough, she could pick one out and taste it.
My colleague Gu Qingru and I can live happily just by relying on the salak fruits found there.
In this case, bring some Salak fruit as dry food on your way to find rescue.
This tale has been unlawfully lifted without the author's consent. Report any appearances on Amazon.
And even less likely to fall into the embarrassing situation of being hungry, thirsty, and targeted by evil wolves.
Thinking of this, Qin Ruyan couldn't help but sigh.
After seeing Zhang Liu holding primitive weapons,
She also understood one thing: that the other party must be like her and had not yet faced rescue.
Thinking of this, Qin Ruyan suddenly temporarily asked Zhang Liu, who was eating the Third Salak Fruit, “Did you see the smoke over there?”
Although yesterday the other party pointed to the direction her sister was in—the direction in which she saw the smoke and was about to go there—Qin Ruyan already had a rough idea in her mind.
But for the last glimmer of hope, she could only continue to stress.
"Smoke?" Upon hearing this, Zhang Liu subconsciously turned his head to look in the direction of Qin Ruyan's eyes. All he saw were blue skies.
Where is the smoke?
“It was the afternoon of the day before yesterday, and there was very thick smoke coming from there...” Qin Ruyan recalled the specific situation. “It went on for a long time. Only when I saw the smoke did I leave my classmate Gu Qingru and venture through the forest alone.
"Um, the smoke at that time... I must have been burning the stone pit, preparing to grill the lamb legs...” Zhang Liu was answering when he suddenly froze, then asked in surprise, “Wait, did you just say that your classmate Gu Qingru is here too?"
“Yes, she and I were washed away on this island by the sea.” Qin Ruyan nodded slightly, then said, “It’s there. If you go from here, it will take less than two days to arrive.”
After hearing the emphatic answer, Zhang Liu fell silent.
If his body is in good shape now,
Then he would definitely choose to split his forces with Qin Ruyan and let her return to the cave to meet Anya and Qin Rushuang, while he would go alone to find Gu Qingru.
But now...
Zhang Liu understood that his current condition was very bad.
Wounds on his chest, left hand, legs, and abdomen showed pain.
If he risked traveling through the forest again and being attacked by hungry wolves like yesterday, he didn't think he could fight or escape unscathed.
What should be done?
The hesitation in his eyes couldn't dissipate for long.
Zhang Liu is not a saint figure. Just as he realized that he couldn't save Qin Rushuang at sea, he might consider leaving her.
If only Zhang Liu had known that he would be seriously injured before he passed by yesterday.
He may even choose to ignore her.
But if he really ignores her...
Zhang Liu calmly raised his head and looked at Qin Ruyan, unable to say anything else.
“Don’t worry, Qingru can have a good life on her own over there. We can find her again when we recover.” Qin Ruyan smiled slightly. She saw the hesitation in Zhang Liu's heart, so she raised the salak in her hand. “There is a large area of this kind of salak fruit there! Not to mention there are mushrooms, various berries, and the like,” she said.
Hearing Qin Ruyan's words, Zhang Liu's heart, which was still wavering, relaxed slightly.
Then he said, "Okay, I'll go see if there's anything else that helps."
"Don't do that! You're injured; don't leave yet. Rest here for a while!" Qin Ruyan turned away from Zhang Liu sideways, then quickly ran into the forest, shouting “Stay!” The next sentence “I’m going to search for the items, so don’t leave!”
The beach was very empty, and Qin Ruyan's shouts rang out.
But before the echo fell, her figure had disappeared behind several large trees.
Qin Ruyan's pace was fast; after all, Zhang Liu had managed to solve his physical problems.
She just introduced her first meat food into her stomach in five days yesterday, so she also needs to work out the physical issues!
The reason she turned aside now was that the pocket next to the skirt was slightly bulging, and there were several torn pieces of white paper inside.
Qin Ruyan ran to the place where the battle between man and wolf had taken place yesterday, walked away from the wolf's body, and took off the top of her white lace panties and stockings.
Then she spread her legs, exerted a little force on her body, and began to solve the most pressing matter of the present.
As the warmth in her body was quietly draining, a gentle smile began to appear on her face.
Of course, this smile comes more from the smooth white paper in her hand!
Zhang Liu casually sat on a chair, hesitated for a few seconds, then ran to the beach to wash his hands, then ate two more of the six paper-wrapped fruits in his hand.
Then he started thinking about his next plan.
My chest still hurts, and it gets worse after moving around for a while.
This means that the meat there has not yet grown.
The same applies to the back of the hand, as simply holding the hammer can cause obvious pain by tearing the skin.
In order to ensure that he could continue to function normally in the future, Zhang Liu knew that his body urgently needed rest and recovery.
With a light sigh, he went to the seat that was slightly warmed by the sun and sat down, then began to look outside and continue thinking about his plan.
