Desert Island Records: PUBG

Chapter 16 Cutting the Vines

Watching and watching, Zhou Hui's excited heart calmed down slightly. Although he was not completely calm before, it cooled down a lot.

The bananas hanging on the banana tree are indeed bananas, but they are rotten and black, with only a little banana yellow smeared in the black.

After staring for a while, it was confirmed that it was a banana. Zhou Hui climbed up the tree, stretched his arms, grabbed the banana and threw it down.

Because the banana tree is not very tall, and it is easy to climb, and the place where the bananas hang is also low, it is easy and does not take much effort.

Jumping on the ground, Zhou Hui began to check with joy and self-comfort.

Indeed, most of them had rotted and turned black, and a few dark black bananas were also hard. There was only half a banana with yellow skin and one intact banana.

Well, don’t worry about the ones that are broken, it’s already a great fortune to have a second fruit to eat besides coconuts on this island!

Taking a deep breath, Zhou Hui opened his eyes again, staring at the banana-yellow fruit in his hand that was not rotten at all.

Thinking of the aroma of this fruit, and thinking of the unique taste that is unique to bananas, it has a soft and sweet taste, and Zhou Hui moved his throat in disappointment.

Even though the big project of building a house was imminent, and even though there might be only this one left on the island, he still decided to deal with this banana on the spot!

"I am going to eat!"

Youmo said such a sentence, and he slowly peeled off the skin with trembling hands. Although this sentence sounds a bit silly, but on such an isolated island, such the last fruit, there must always be some rituals Don't you feel?
The banana was slowly put into the mouth, and just after taking a bite, I wanted to say something subconsciously, but when the unique sweet and soft feeling of the banana was completely distributed in the mouth, I couldn’t say anything .

It’s not that the fruit in his hands is too delicious, it’s just that a modern person who has tasted all the delicious food suddenly eats three meals a day without adding any salt. No, there are no three meals, only food once or twice a day is nothing Taste, now suddenly there is such a sweet and delicious fruit, how can this feeling not make people emotional?
He didn't speak, he didn't dance with joy, it's strange that Zhou Hui felt...very moved?

Yes, it is touching!

It is so delicious that it is impressive!
Unknowingly, I was immersed in the delicacy of bananas. Although I ate very slowly, there was really only one. Soon, there was only the last bit of bananas left.

The last piece of banana is also reluctantly thrown into the mouth, enjoying the last delicacy. At this last moment, it seems that all the troubles in the world are far away from me.

However, as the tongue can taste the last bit of sweetness and disappears, all the troubles resurfaced around him and entangled him.

This made Zhou Hui subconsciously feel a little irritated
It's just that it's annoying, after a small meal, the things that should be done still have to continue.

As for the remaining half-rotten bananas, he didn't eat them no matter how greedy he was. Taste is of course important, but it's not worth mentioning in front of survival.

There are two low-level banana trees in front of him, but only one has a banana hanging on it. Looking at the trunk of the banana tree, Zhou Hui suddenly thought about a survival program and a knowledge about water extraction of banana trees:
"The trunk of this kind of dwarf banana tree is actually very fragile. You don't need an ax or a saw, but you can break the trunk with simple force. The trunk close to the ground can be broken off, leaving only a banana stump, and the center of the banana stump is hollowed out. After a period of time, the inside will automatically empty, no bacteria, clean water."

About the method of finding water from banana trees, this is probably the case.

Of course, he can't use this method now, so let the two banana trees grow in place first.

After a small episode, Zhou Hui continued his current job.

Although the method of making a house, even the simplest house, has not been thought of, some materials have been found a lot.

Teng Man!

There are many vines around!

This kind of vine is very strong, a bit like a creeper, but the leaves are not like it, much smaller and sparser, and the appearance of the vine itself is similar to that of ordinary branches, but it is not as fragile as the branches and can bend.

This kind of vine can be used instead of hemp rope!
After confirming that this plant could be used instead of rope, Zhou Hui began to clean up the vines that were entangled with other tree trunks or entangled with other plants.

After taking a short time to separate, the next step is to separate the vine itself from the ground.

Hard pulling cannot be pulled out directly from rocks and soil, so you can only use a knife.

Unfortunately, he didn't have a knife either.

So, just like breaking a coconut when I first landed on the island yesterday, I pointed a sharp reef at the place that was approaching the root of the vine, smashed and scratched, softly and hard.

There is no doubt that this is another very labor-intensive matter, and it is destined not to go well.

In the island forest, Zhou Hui used the sharpness of the reef and the sharpness of the shells to cut one place at a time. At first, it was very, very, very difficult, but later, he mastered the technique, and with a little bit of rubbing, he cut first. The outer skin, then the root stems, and then the innermost core, layer by layer, even the phase sequence of a strand of root stems ruptured, causing the original solid vines to begin to break and be gradually cut off.

Finally, with a tear, a section of vines seven or eight meters long with four or five small branches attached to it was cut off and became independent.

He raised the vine that looked good in his hand, and then Zhou Hui started to cut the next one.

However, even so, the planned and methodical cutting still took a long time and a lot of energy. After all, it is not sharp, sharp reefs and shells, and there is a certain degree of difficulty.

At the same time, Zhou Hui also understood that the idea of ​​cutting down trees to build a house is a no-brainer!

Without knives and tools, it would take a lot of effort to cut a cane, let alone a tree.

Robinson Crusoe felled a big tree, spent 22 days removing the roots and branches with an axe, spent a month making the bottom of a boat, and spent another three months hollowing out the inside of the tree with a mallet and chisel. Finally made a not so decent canoe.

Or the kind that will sink to the bottom of the sea at any time.

Building a house is no easier than building a boat, and it is even more impossible.

I don't know how long it took, maybe an hour, or even more than two hours, before I managed to get the three long vines, but Zhou Hui, who was already tired, was a little hungry.

Zhou Hui's mouth twitched unconsciously when he thought that he had eaten coconut crab not long ago and had a full meal, but he was hungry so quickly.

However, the main reason is no longer his own, but his previous living conditions. His body was almost starved for several days, and he only ate two coconuts and a little shellfish, which could not meet the normal food demand at all.

Even if I ate a half-full coconut crab meal before, what is it compared to a body that has been deprived of food for several days?

After a while, I was hungry again, and after a while I went back to look for food again. Alas, I was so hard... Sighing silently, Zhou Hui put the shell that had a gap in his hand into the fourth vine. He started to cut at a position on the vine, and he was going to take all the vines back to the camp after cutting the vine.

At this time, he suddenly felt a little cold moisture on his face.

Zhou Hui's Desert Island Survival Notes:
[1. Coconut is a kind of plant that grows on many islands. It is a good choice for those who have first landed on the island, except that the coconut shell is really difficult to open. 】

[2. The beaches of ordinary islands are covered with a lot of waste products transported by the ocean. This is garbage belonging to the human world. However, for the deserted islanders, they can find very few precious resources from it. 】

[3. Under certain conditions, it is the best policy to boil fresh water to a boil, especially if there is no flowing stagnant water. Even if the stagnant water in Tanzhong is clean and clear, it needs to be heated to eliminate bacteria. Of course, the exception is the case of dying of thirst. 】

[4. In the face of plants or fruits that are not known to be toxic, you can apply the juice of the fruit to the skin. After a period of time, notice whether there is any discomfort or abnormality in the smeared skin area. There is no reaction and no toxicity. On the contrary, it is poisonous. 】

[5. If you really can’t open the coconut shell, you can find a coconut crab to try it. It is professional in opening coconuts, of course, if it cooperates.Tip: Be careful with the claws of live coconut crabs. 】

[6. Banana tree stems can be broken without the help of tools. Break off the banana trunk from a position near the ground, dig out the soft core of the tree stump on the ground, wait for a period of time, and automatically filter out the untreated ones. Fresh water is only for emergencies only. 】
