Chapter Forty-Seven

"Congratulations to the host for completing the [Finding a New Water Source] task. The reward has been obtained."

Just when Ye Qing was about to drink the water in the coconut and refill the spring water, the prompt appeared. The task reward was nothing special, just 100 points, and he didn't bother to watch it.

After installing the water, when Zhao Ling was taking the water in his coconut shell to the outside, Ye Qing hurriedly stopped: "What are you doing?"

Zhao Ling didn't turn his head back: "The water in it has been preserved for a long time. It has already been warmed to warm water. Drinking it will not quench your thirst at all. I will decorate it with spring water."

Ye Qing rolled his eyes and said: "No matter how cold the spring water is, you can't drink it directly. Don't look at the clear water and you will feel clean. There is just this spring water around here. Many birds and beasts come here to drink water. There are bacteria in it. Many, what if I drink it and get sick?"

Last time Ye Qing drank it immediately after finding the water source. Later, when he remembered this, he was afraid of it for a while. Fortunately, he didn't have a stomachache!

When Zhao Ling heard this, he was a little frightened. He didn't dare to pour any more water. He hesitated and said: "No, this water is flowing water, not stagnant water, isn't it as mysterious as you said?"

Ye Qing said sternly: "No matter what, it's always right to be careful. We don't have medical conditions now. If we get sick, it will be troublesome. The water we bring back here can only be drunk after it is boiled, you know?"

"All right."

Zhao Ling could only continue to drink warm water and refilled with spring water after he quenched his thirst. Because Ye Qing scared her by what Ye Qing said before, she specially went to the source to administer it.

Ye Qing said again: "You and Xiao Hei are resting here now, I will look around."

"What are you looking at?" Zhao Ling asked subconsciously.

Ye Qing said: "Look to see if there are footprints of large beasts nearby. Don't come over to fetch water when there is any danger."

"Then you be careful."

With the lessons learned from the previous time, Ye Qing didn't dare to be careless this time, he checked very carefully.

He really found a lot of footprints around here, but it seemed that they were all small animals such as pheasants. The footprints of tigers and leopards were not found, which gave him a lot of peace of mind.

In the process, Ye Qing also discovered that on the other side of the spring water, not far from the jungle, there is a piece of flat ground. On the other side of the flat ground, there is actually a large green bamboo growing. This is a good thing. You can build a house and weave it. Things can be cut down and used as containers.

But when I came out today, I didn't bring the stone axe for convenience, so I had to wait for the next time.

The flat land over there is not wide, but it is more than enough to build a thatched cottage, and even a field around it can be used to grow potatoes.

Of course, this kind of thought is just a matter of thinking. Ye Qing is very satisfied in the cave now, and there is also a place in front of the cave that is suitable for growing potatoes.

There is no need to come here to take risks.

At the same time, he also estimated that the distance between the pool and the beach was about two kilometers, which is why they hadn't found it after walking through it before.

And what made him feel happy was that the spring water was closer to the cave where they were now living than it was to walk to the sea from here.

Because the cave they live in is a cliff recessed from the beach. The entire cliff forms a nose shape. You can see it from here. It's only a little more than one kilometer away. If a road is opened, in the future It will be convenient to fetch water.

Back to the water, Zhao Ling was removing the bucket of water that had been hung on Xiao Hei before he set off.

Ye Qing asked Xiao Lan to look around carefully, and only after finding that there was no danger, did he go to help Zhao Ling move the bucket onto Xiao Hei's back.

The bucket was okay when it was empty, just tie it to Xiao Hei with the twine twisted last time.

But now that it was filled with water, the cylindrical bucket was really not easy to tie, and it took a lot of effort for the two to finally fix it on Xiao Hei's back.

It was getting late, and the two hurried toward the nose-shaped cliff.

On the way, Zhao Yinyi said: "I really didn't expect that the water source is so close to us, but we still circled such a big circle, do you think the two of us are a little stupid?"

"It's not stupid, it's cautious." Ye Qing corrected.

Even though you can hear the sound of waves hitting the beach from here, but in fact, the distance of about two kilometers is very deep. If the body is not strengthened by the system, Ye Qing will not encounter any beasts. I can guarantee that I can run out.

Of course Zhao Ling knew this, and while rushing to Xiao Hei, he said, "That's what I said, if there is water near the beach, I wouldn't want to come here even if it's farther away. This kind of water-sourced and flat terrain The place is best for wild animals."

"So if you want to fetch water in the future, it would be better if two people act together." Ye Qing said, and emphasized: "Of course, don't be careless even on the beach. The beach is just a wider sight, even if there are large beasts. It's easy to be spotted, not to say that there is less chance of beasts there."

"Um."

Zhao Ling nodded, and then said: "By the way, you haven't found any beast's footprints around before, right?"

Because her physical strength was relatively weak, when she got to the water pool, Ye Qing asked her to stay beside Xiao Hei to rest, and went to investigate by herself.

Ye Qing said: "I haven't found anything for the time being..."

As he said, he talked about what he had discovered about the flat land and the green bamboo.

When he heard that there were bamboos, Zhao Ling became excited again, and said, "I didn't expect that there are bamboos on this island. Now we don't have to worry about having anything to drink."

Ye Qing laughed as she listened, this girl is good at everything, just delicious.

Of course, this is not to say that Zhao Ling eats a lot, but that she has a particularly high requirement for a sense of ritual in eating.

For example, when Ye Qing had just exchanged potatoes before, the two had cooked once.

Obviously it can be eaten directly in her hand. This girl has to slice it with a saber and place it on the leaves, and put it into a specific pattern before eating it with the seasoning.

Another example is rice. Because there is no bowl, it can only be eaten wrapped in leaves. According to Ye Qing, it is good to just dig into the leaves and hold them after cooking, but Zhao Ling always wraps them in leaves first. He squeezed the rice into a rice ball before biting, saying that it was more fragrant.

All in all, it was the life of a deserted island that was clearly struggling, and this girl had such a delicate appearance.

Although Ye Qing couldn't help but complain every time, he actually liked this kind of life.

Because only in this way can he always remind him that he belongs to the outside world, not the savages living in the deep mountains and old forests.

So when he heard what Zhao Ling said at the moment, he thought for a moment whether he would not have to directly face the mouth of the bucket when drinking water, but instead use a cup made of bamboo to fill a little, and then shake it a few times. The two clink glasses before drinking.

Drink this plain and tasteless spring directly to give the feeling of 1982 Lafite. *
