Meow Ba

Chapter 246 Start Search and Rescue, Bread Tree

"Hey, ladies and gentlemen, are you feeling alright now?"

"There is enough aviation fuel in Karina's fuel tank for six hours of flight."

"We can start."

After climbing to a certain height, under the control of Hogarth, the old plane Karina finally calmed down, which made Lorraine and his group relax.

Spread out the map of Hawaii bought a few days ago in the cabin, Lorraine took out a waterproof notebook from his backpack with his left hand, and opened the first page casually.

Whale, black sand, iron pot...

The names and locations of a series of islands are recorded in a waterproof notebook, but they cannot be found on the map of Hawaii-these are the knowledge and wealth accumulated by the old captain during his decades of sailing career, because Lorraine attaches great importance to his family Moved, he told Lorraine free of charge.

Of course, these islands are all located near the mouth of Dinosaur Bay. As for the location of islands in other directions, Lorraine does not need it, and the old captain will not say.

"Go to Whale Island first, the direction..."

Referring to the map of Hawaii, Lorraine marked the names and basic directions of the islands in the notebook one by one. In an instant, the original ordinary map became a treasure map with many hidden islands.

Of course, the possibility that these islands have been discovered by various high-tech detection methods is not ruled out, but at the very least, they were not on the original map of Hawaii.

"Got it, hold on tight!"

The old plane drew a beautiful curve and flew towards the direction Lorraine had mentioned - the propellers made a humming sound due to the rapid rotation, even in the cabin, it was still like thunder.

Unfortunately, louder than the roar of the propellers was the whistling of the gust of wind outside the cabin, which was the breath of Hurricane Irena—a gust of wind blew past the side, and the plane immediately shook violently, and Christina and Molly immediately turned pale.

"Ah, it's been a long time since I felt such a wonderful feeling!"

"Karina, dance with me!"

Fully showing the wildness of a senior fetishist with his [lover], Hogarth yelled frantically, but his subordinates steadily pulled the joystick, and kept fine-tuning the steering rudders on the main and tail wings, allowing the old The old "lover" seemed to be transformed into a petrel, fighting against the increasingly violent wind and waves.

Time passed in the paleness of the fingers grasping the fixed handle of the cabin. When the last tremor disappeared from the fuselage, Hogarth's whistle came along with the words, and a small island shaped like a whale with a green back appeared in front of it.

"Whistle~"

"Hey, ladies and gentlemen, our first stop has arrived."

"very good."

"Hogarth, fly around the island three times at the slowest cruise speed."

"Tina, Molly, grab the binoculars, we're getting to work!"

In the cabin that was stabilized again, Lorraine immediately assigned everyone's tasks, and then he also lay down on the side of the cabin, put the high-precision telescope advertised as military use in front of his eyes, and began to observe the beach without speaking.

…………

"Sand, sand, sand~"

The friction sound of fur and grass, diving suit and blade of grass continued to sound.

Ron, Catherine and Ting Moe, the hamster who's officially expanded from a duo to a trio, trek through the jungle.

In order to prevent various poisonous insects and leeches in the jungle from causing harm, Catherine put on a diving suit for a rare occasion, letting the heat and sweat flow.

When he came to the island, the sun had risen and set five times, and Ron had left the shelter to explore three times. These three times allowed Ron to discover the breeding gathering places of seabirds, banana trees and lemon trees, as well as water sources and new shelters .

Now, one person, one cat and one mouse embark on their fourth exploration, with the goal of plant-based food—in short, edible plants.

Although I found lemons and bananas before, it is not likely to be deficient in vitamins, but eating seafood and meat all the time is likely to cause some inconvenience-the most intuitive manifestation is that the convenience is not smooth.

"Orange, how long do we have to look for?"

Following the gurgling water source upwards, the three of them have been walking in the jungle for more than half an hour, and passed the small waterfall covered by vines as the water source rushed down that Ron saw before, but so far they have not found any edible ones. plant.

"Meow~"

keep going~
Raising his head from the grass, Ron called out to Catherine, then continued walking with his head down, observing the surrounding plants while walking.

He was the main force looking for plants this time, and Catherine was just a waiting porter—her wilderness survival skills were taught by Ron after she went to the island, and she didn't have the ability to distinguish edible plants at all.

There is, however, a new addition on Catherine's shoulders.

"Squeak!"

Standing up on Catherine's shoulders, the little one struggled in the dappled jungle shade to sniff its nose before squeaking.

"Orange, it's so cute, it seems like I found it."

"In this direction."

Hearing Ting Meng's cry, Catherine immediately stopped Ron in front of him, and Ron immediately turned around and walked towards the direction indicated by Ting Meng the hamster.

If it was an ordinary hamster, Ron would never pay attention to it, but Ron dared not ignore the cuteness - after all, this little guy can find pearls hidden in shells, who knows if he has other special abilities.

…………

Ting Meng also lived up to Ron's expectations. After walking about ten meters and turning around a tangled banyan tree, a big tree with a height of six to seven meters appeared in front of the three of them.

This big tree has thick branches and luxuriant leaves. The most important thing is that it is full of round yellow-green fruits, some of which have turned brown.

"Meow!"

It's a bread tree!

His eyes lit up, and Ron immediately recognized the identity of the big tree in front of him—the knowledge reserve from his previous life came in handy at this moment, after all, this is the only plant that can grow fruit that tastes like bread, and the other is Baobab trees growing in Africa.

Of course, there are similarities and differences between the two plants. The baobab tree belongs to the kapok family. In addition to growing baobab fruit, the soft trunk can store a lot of water.

In Africa, often a baobab tree can feed a small group of monkeys, which is the origin of its name.

The bread tree is different. It belongs to the moraceae family. Its fruit is an aggregate fruit, which is delicious after grilling. It is the main food in some tropical areas-Ron and Catherine have tasted this kind of food on Oahu Island, but Catherine did not see it. Just been to the real thing.

And for Polynesians, the bread tree has a different status-they eat the fruit of the bread tree, use the bread tree trunk to make boats, use the bread tree to build houses, and use the bread bark to weave rope and various daily necessities.

Even in nautical expeditions, the Polynesians must carry the branches of the bread tree-they will plant them when they encounter islands, and they can provide the necessary supplies for life while pointing the way for future generations.
