Chapter 233 Strange Creatures
Eli said to Zhang Ping pitifully, "Zhang Ping, I'm hungry!"
Zhang Ping looked at Polikova, who also looked pitiful. He sighed in his heart, thought for a moment, and suddenly laughed, "Don't you want to eat grilled fish? I'll grab some for you now."
Under the suspicious eyes of the four eyes, Zhang Ping ran back into the jungle and came out with a tree trunk in his hand. Take out the saber you carry with you from your arms, sharpen one end of the tree trunk, and weigh it with one hand, which is not bad. Then walk to the sea near the cliff. There are many reefs below, and there are also many fish playing in the cracks of the reef.
Zhang Ping took the homemade harpoon in his hand, looked at the fish, and inserted it hard. The water rippled, the fish turned around and slid away, and the harpoon returned in no effort. Zhang Ping was not discouraged. He carefully observed the direction of the fish's swing, judged the possible direction in advance, and stabbed it like lightning again. This time, he could obviously feel the slippery body of the fish, but there was still a slight deviation in the judgment. Zhang Ping adjusted again, and the harpoon came out of the water at the same time, The tail fish swayed painfully on the branch harpoon.
After gaining experience, Zhang Ping's proficient ability became more and more proficient. Soon he forked five big fish and happily returned to the beach to show his achievements to the two women. Seeing that Zhang Ping really got a fish, such a simple tool and such a simple technique, it's amazing. The two women looked at admiration.
Ellie was a little unconvinced and took the harpoon to try to play with a few forks, but no matter how hard she tried or begged, the fish playing below did not give her any face at all, and it took a long time to come back.
By the time she came back, Zhang Ping and Polikova had collected a lot of dead leaf branches and piled them together. Zhang Ping held two stones and collided with each other. Eli couldn't help smiling bitterly: "Zhang Ping, why don't you save your energy, so that you can hit Mars? I don't believe it even if I die."
Zhang Ping said seriously, "Listen to people's advice and eat enough. There are always some legends left by the ancestors that are worth watching and listening to. He said that he was strong in his hands and swdled like the sound of nature. A spark flashed in the darkness, and it was really lit by Zhang Ping.
In fact, Zhang Ping is also a speculator. While pretending, he secretly recited a spell, and his finger secretly drew a thunder spell. Suddenly, with the impact of the stone, he covered the thunder. Where the lightning struck, a trace of flame was born.
The bonfire was quickly finished. A few more tree trunks were cut as a grill, and a few big fish were put on it. After a long time, the fish was full of fragrance, which made people move. Unfortunately, there was no salt, but it was already very good. The faint fishy smell was extremely fresh, and soon a few grilled fish were swept away.
After eating, Eli licked her mouth as if she hadn't eaten enough, and begged Zhang Ping to teach her how to fish tomorrow morning. Zhang Ping is naturally happy to have someone to do it for him.
That night, the three of them huddled in the tent. Zhang Ping was worried about the safety of the three people. After both of them fell asleep, he quietly walked out of the tent and sat on the beach, thinking about what to do.
The starry sky of the desert island is very beautiful, without any trace of pollution. The desert island under the starlight looks very quiet. Occasionally, a few roars of beasts come from the depths of the jungle. Perhaps because it is far away, it is very vague. I only know that it should be some kind of unknown big Type of beast.
After dawn the next day, Ili and Polikova came out of the tent and were stunned to find that Zhang Ping had put out an SOS distress signal with pebbles on the beach. After Polykova came out, she looked nervous and asked Zhang Ping if he heard any beast roaring last night. Seeing Zhang Ping nodding, Polykova's face suddenly turned pale, as if the beast had rushed out of the jungle and rushed to her face.
Although the sea is surging, it is not the fresh water needed for survival. Zhang Ping and the other two have no choice but to give up their plan to stay on the beach and prepare to walk inside to see if they can find a freshwater lake, even a small river.
Zhang Ping led the way in front with a machete in his hand. Eli and Polikova followed and kept bickering. Suddenly, Eli screamed. Zhang Ping looked back and said disdainfully, "That's just a tree trunk. What, do you think it's a snake? Haha"
Zhang Ping picked up the tree trunk with a machete and scared Ellie and Polikova. Unexpectedly, as soon as he picked up the trunk, Zhang Ping felt that the trunk seemed to be squirming. Take a look, what is the trunk? It's really a snake, stinging and sticking out its tongue, and is about to pounce on itself.
Zhang Ping's hand was so fast that he stuck the snake's seven inches. With a little force, the poor snake was dead. Zhang Ping said with a smile, "You can make a tooth sacrifice at night. Snake meat. Do you like it?"
Ellie took two steps aside, with some fear in her eyes. Ha ha, this little girl actually doesn't like snake meat. Hey, she really doesn't know how to eat it.
Going further in, the trees become more and more dense. You can often see the big trees held by several people. I don't know how far and deep the territory of this big tree is under the ground.
As they went all the way, there were more small animals. From time to time, they ran out of the depths of the jungle. There were some bold animals. They couldn't say their names, as if they were standing less than 3 meters in front of them now. There was a rabbit-sized, fluffy, staring at two small animals. Eyes, staring at these uninvited guests.
Ellie thought it was very funny and shouted, "Good boy, don't run, sister hug", and she was about to go up and get in touch with small animals. Zhang Ping suddenly saw that the little animal's eyes suddenly became bigger, bowed his body, quickly pulled her arm, and said warily, "Be careful, this little guy doesn't seem to be easy to provoke."
Ellie said carelessly, "What's so powerful about such a gadget?" As soon as he finished speaking, the little animal rushed at her like lightning, and the four claws flashed a faint black light in the sun. Fortunately, Zhang Ping reacted quickly and pulled Eli aside to avoid the attack. Then he slapped out, somersaulted the little guy, and ran away with a cry.
Ellie patted her chest with lingering heart and exclaimed, "What is this? Why is it so fierce?"
Polikova's eyes widened, stared at the back of the faraway little animal, and muttered to herself, "Why do you feel that this lonely island is strange? Yesterday, the dead lake was already very strange, which made us have no yachts. Now the little animals in the jungle don't seem to be afraid of human beings at all. Where is this place?
"No matter where it is, let's find fresh water quickly. I guess we will live on this island for a while." Zhang Ping was also a little irritable, but he had to pretend to be calm. If he also panicked, I'm afraid it would make the two girls even more frightened.
The three people continued to walk forward and could see the figure of that small animal from time to time. However, it's strange that as long as they don't deliberately approach each other, these small animals will not take the initiative to attack them. They just stand and watch them from afar, as if they are admiring the animals in the zoo.
The road in the jungle is difficult to walk. It can be seen that there is obviously no trace of human beings here. Many trees are intertwined, blocking their way all the time. Zhang Ping had to wave his machete and barely opened up a narrow path.
Polikova suddenly shouted in surprise, "Come and see, what is that?"
Following her eyes, on their heads, a tree trunk slanted into the air. In the dense leaves, you can see something that emits a metallic luster in the sun. The three people couldn't help but rejoice. If they could find traces of human life, there would be hope.
Throwing the backpack to Ellie, Zhang Ping climbed up the tree trunk and soon arrived at that position. He stared at it, but it was a thin metal plate, about a meter square, and there were some burnt marks on it. Zhang Ping slowly climbed over the tree trunk, took the metal plate over, and told the people below to get out of the way and throw it. On the ground.
At this time, there was still a short distance from the top of the tree. Zhang Ping looked up and vaguely seemed that there was something on the top, so he continued to climb up without hesitation. When he got to the top, he saw the same metal plate, which was only half the size of the surface. Looking left and right, he found nothing. Zhang Ping took the fast-small metal plate in his hand, came down from the big tree, and threw the metal plate to the ground.
Three people took the two metal plates and looked up, down, left and right, and found no trace of text. Zhang Ping couldn't help but wonder, "This is a desert island. How can there be this technological product? Is there the wreckage of the plane crash?"
Eli echoed, "I also think so. If it's really a wreckage, there must be more things nearby. Let's look for it again."
The three people dispersed and patrolled in different directions. Sure enough, it was less than 100 meters in front of her. Ellie found that a fighter plane slanted across a huge tree and was about to fall. The surface of the plane was dilapidated, and there were traces of charred in many places. The three people circled around the big tree twice and felt deeply afraid. This big tree is about 2 meters in diameter. The trunk of the sky covers most of the sky, and the branches are dense. If it hadn't been for the front, I wouldn't have found that there was a plane falling on it. However, strangely, from their point of view, no trace of the pilot was found.
Ellie couldn't help cheering and said, "There must be communication equipment on this plane. We can take it down and contact the outside world."
Zhang Ping couldn't help sneerizing her: "Ah, Ellie, don't we also have communication equipment on our yacht? Why did you forget it at that time?"
Yes, Zhang Ping asked Eli to pack her things yesterday. It turned out that she could never be trusted. Not only did she forget to bring a lot of necessary things, but she also forgot to bring the communication equipment. Zhang Ping was busy driving and didn't notice these problems. As a result, they were trapped on the island.
