Ronnie couldn't help but jump to his feet and yell, "Chimpanzee Mocha has come to steal our boat.”
"Sorry!" Alice said with an apologetic face, "It seems I set the anchor too shallow when I lowered it yesterday, and the boat drifted away at high tide."
"Sister, you are so careless, now the house can't be built and we can't find food, what an unlucky day."
"Ronnie, it looks like you'll just have to be a cat and eat dried fish," Michiko laughed and joked.
"Sister, the house can't be built, let's go to the cave you were looking for last time, if we dig deeper we can live there, right?"
"Okay! I'll lead the way."
The three of them soon came to this cave, Ronnie bent down and picked up a small stone from the ground, scratched the wall of the cave a few times, the dirt on the wall fell off, he crossed his arms and said with a serious expression, "After my experiments, the dirt here is very loose and can be dug into a cave."
"What's the point of experimenting? anyone who isn't blind can see that," Michiko pursed her lips and laughed.
They were still quite satisfied with this place and decided to dig a hole and build a house here. Michiko went back to the big rock to get the flag, the crab shells and the rope. There were no tools, so they had to make their own. Ronnie found a thick branch, removed the branches, and found a sharp, hard rock, which he tied to the thick branch with rope, thus making a simple shovel. After eating the dried fish, the three of them began to take turns digging the hole, and when they were thirsty, they ran to the water source that Ronnie had found to get a few sips of water to drink, and then they continued to work. This is five minutes away from the water source, it will take ten minutes to go back and forth. At the same time they thought: "It would be nice to have something to hold the water, the crab shells are really hard to carry and hold only a little water. ”By evening, the hole had been dug down to an area barely big enough to squeeze three people in, and they were exhausted. But there were rewards, at least they didn't have to sleep on the open rocks at night. Ronnie gasped, "All right! we'll keep going tomorrow or we'll die of exhaustion and have to dig our own graves."
Alice was also exhausted, "Let's sleep here tonight! we'll feel better when we dig another day tomorrow."
The three of them cleaned up the fallen dirt and made a place to sleep, then spread the green palm leaves in three layers and covered the top layer with the flag. The three were so exhausted that they lay down on it and fell asleep. For the next few days, they divided up the work, with Alice going out every day to fish and gather food. Ronnie and Michiko continued to dig the hole. A week later, the hole was four meters deep, three meters wide, and nearly two meters high. To prevent wild animals from attacking, although they had not yet seen a single wild animal, the three of them used tree branches to make a simple moving fence to guard the entrance to the hole. Ronnie found a long branch and hung the flag outside. "Finally, it looks like home." Michiko looked around and couldn't help but sigh.
"We should bring some dry sea sand to cover the floor so it's comfortable to walk on," Ronnie suggested.
Alice on the other side shook her head and said, "We should find a way to solve the food problem now, I have found it too difficult to gather food in the past few days, what you are eating are all leftovers from the original ship and they are all pretty much eaten by now and if we don't find food we will only go hungry."
"Sister, where did you find those potatoes you dug up yesterday?" Ronnie asked, pointing to the two potatoes on the ground.
"Right next to where you found the water source."
"Then let's go back and see if we can dig up some more."
"I've looked all over the area and there's nothing."

At that moment, Michiko interjected, "The three of us should have a better chance of finding it.”
"Well, I hope your luck is better than mine!" Alice had no choice but to nod her head.
After they finished talking, they set off to the water source and soon reached their destination, "Sister, you look for it first, I'll drink a few drops of water," Ronnie said as he tilted his head and opened his mouth to catch and drink the water, the two women each went one way and split up to look for it, Ronnie drank the water and went to the other side, the three of them went in three directions.
Michiko walked along an overgrown path, at this time she found a piece of strangely shaped rock not far away, she walked up and lightly touched it with her hand, the surface of the rock was uneven as if it had been carved by something sharp, could it be that someone had been here before? She thought in her heart, after walking along the rocks for about a dozen meters, her eyes were wide open, it was an open valley, the valley was alive with all kinds of exotic flowers and plants competing for supremacy. She called out happily, "Alice, Ronnie, come over here, it's so beautiful!" she called several times but received no response.
Just as she was about to walk back, she suddenly felt a sharp pain under her feet, she looked down and saw a tooth mark on her ankle, blood oozing from the wound, and a black snake quickly burrowing into the grass and disappearing. She quickly crouched down and covered her wound, the pain came with it and she screamed in fear, "Ronnie, Alice!”
Ronnie was walking along the path and when he heard her scream, he quickly followed the sound. When he saw Michiko sitting on the ground, he said angrily, "Why are you screaming? I thought a snake had bitten you."
"You idiot, I really was bitten by a snake," Michiko huffed.
Ronnie was shocked by his words, "Ah, let me see!" he crouched down and examined the wound. "don't be afraid, I'll help you squeeze out the blood and you'll be fine," he reassured.
"Ronnie, in the movie they all use their mouths to suck, are you learning that too?"
"Suck it with my mouth? if it's really poisonous, I might die faster than you, and I don't want to die early."
Ronnie flattened Michiko's left leg, then unbuckled his own belt and tied it tightly around her calf to prevent circulation, then forcefully squeezed the blood out of the wound. His strength was too weak, and it took him a while to squeeze out a little blood, but the wound gradually began to turn purple. He was worried, knowing that this was a sign of poisoning. He quickly took off his jacket and then his underwear, naked. He folded the underwear into three layers, then covered Michiko's ankle, lowered his head, and used his mouth to forcefully suck the thick blood in the wound through the underwear. "Ronnie, I thought you said you couldn't suck with your mouth?why are you using it now?" Michiko asked bitterly.
"Don't say anything, I'm busy!" Ronnie replied in a bad mood.
"Ronnie, are you afraid to die? I'm not afraid, if I die, I can see my brother!"
"What did you just say?" Ronnie lifted his head to look at her suspiciously. But he didn't pursue the question, but continued to suck her blood. Only when the bruises were almost gone did he let out a long sigh of relief and the boy collapsed to the ground in exhaustion. "Let's wait here for my sister, she should find this place," he panted.
"Ronnie, will I be your girlfriend when you grow up?" Michiko, also on the ground, spoke up.
"I saved you and you want more, I don't agree," Ronnie climbed up in a single bound and gravely refused.
"Why?" Michiko asked, staring at him with round eyes.
"Because..." Ronnie didn't know how to answer, he was only nine years old and didn't know anything about men and women. Luckily, he heard Alice's call and hurriedly replied, "Sister, we're here!"
Alice quickly found the place and when she saw the blood on the ground and the naked Ronnie, she was shocked, "What are you doing? Ronnie, did you do something to Michiko?"
"That's right!" Ronnie admitted with a straight face.
"Nonsense! Get dressed!" Alice said with a grimace.
"Sister, it was a thrill just now, Michiko's foot was bitten by a snake and bled, I took care of it all for her."
"Oh! So that's how it is!" Alice sniffed in relief, "then we'll rest here for a while, Michiko, how are you now?"
"I'm fine now, luckily Ronnie saved me, I also noticed that there seem to be potatoes here, go have a look," as she said this she pointed to a bush five meters to her left. Alice went over to have a look and actually saw some potato seedlings growing in the grass, by a rough count there were as many as forty plants, she exclaimed happily, "Now we have something to eat.”
"Sister, you help Michiko clean her wound, I'll dig the potatoes," Ronnie said, lowering his head to look for tools. Michiko on the side hurriedly warned, "You have to be careful of snakes."
"Michiko, why didn't you warn me before?" Alice asked with a light laugh.
"I ..." Michiko couldn't answer with a red face and could only bow her head.
Alice patted her shoulder, "Alright, alright, don't be shy, it's not like I blame you," after saying that, she turned around and went to the water source to get some water. This trip and back took almost ten more minutes, treating Michiko's wounds, carrying her on her back, and turning to Ronnie, "Are you done digging? we're leaving."
"Done!" Ronnie replied, wrapping the dug potatoes in his jacket and getting up to follow.
