If there was a tsunami on the way back, maybe the stranded ship would be filled with all kinds of gold and gems?
In addition, this isolated island was once a pirate base, so there is a high probability that all kinds of jewelry are hidden here.
Li Mo figured this out, and his eyes suddenly lit up. This should be where those Ming people who were in trouble lived, so maybe gold, gems, and all kinds of rare treasures are nearby.
After cleaning all the vines on the cave wall and throwing the wooden bed outside, Li Mo put the machete on his shoulder and was very satisfied with the cave. Facing the sea, the spring flowers are blooming, and it is suspended from the ground, without fear of wild beasts. Coupled with the abundant sunshine, this is definitely the best place to live.
After searching all the other caves, we can slowly sort out where we will live in the future. As for whether he will die of old age here in this life, it is not a matter of consideration for the time being. Anyway, standing at the entrance of this cave, you can see the sea in the distance. That direction is the direction you came from. If you are lucky in the future, you may be able to find other merchant ships that have gone astray.
Then he still has a glimmer of hope.
In the next few days, Li Mo was either clearing the vines on the cliff or searching other caves to see if he could find some gold gems or some antiquities from six hundred years ago.
Unfortunately, there are only traces of human habitation in more than thirty caves, but nothing of value has been found.
It seems that the treasure is not in this area.
Li Mo then thought about the place where the pirates lived. Before the Ming people were trapped here, did they also live here? If not, then there must be traces of human habitation in other parts of this isolated island.
Use the Yanling knife to carve a horizontal line on the stone wall of the cave, which represents that another day has passed. There are already two complete characters "正" on the mountain wall. It has been ten days since Li Moluo arrived on this isolated island.
The clothes on his body already had various holes in them, but he took them off without hesitation. Although he was the only one left here, he had no exposed quirks. What would happen in a few months or a few years? By then talk later.
Below the second residence, the nearby bushes have been almost cleared. A tree shed was rebuilt on a large open space near the lake, and a simple stove pit was cut out of stones. Fortunately, there were some pots and pans left in those caves. Although they were rusty, they could be used to cook water and meat normally after being polished many times by Li Mo with stones.
The food we eat is still seafood, including arm-long lobsters, big-faced crabs, and several kinds of fish. Paired with endless fruits, it’s a real treat, but eating these things every day is not a problem.
Li Mo planned to go to other parts of the island the next day. He always believed that there were endless gold and jewelry buried here.
Zhizhi, several golden and black-haired monkeys sat neatly not far away and squeaked their teeth at Li Mo. They seemed to be a little bigger and stronger than the other monkeys.
"Why are you urging me? Didn't you see that the water hasn't boiled yet? I'll eat it first when it's cooked. The rest is yours. Leave it to me and don't touch it."
Zhizhizhi—
The little monkey bared its teeth at him, as if threatening him.
Li Mo fiddled with the fire, glanced at the monkeys, couldn't help but put the machete in front of their eyes and said with a smile: "If you have the guts, just charge forward."
Probably feeling the evil intention emanating from the machete, the five little monkeys finally calmed down. The largest one, with golden hair all over his body, should be the monkey king. Its nose has been twitching, probably smelling seafood in the air. fragrance.
"If you want to eat, bring your own lobsters and crabs over tomorrow. It's a dream to eat and drink for free."
The water in the pot began to boil. Li Mo first took a little soup with a wooden spoon he made and tasted it. It was weak. I pinched some white salt flowers from a wooden box and tasted them again after a minute. They were full of umami.
In order to make some edible salt, his clothes became even more torn. Fortunately, the raw materials for making salt will never dry up.
These monkeys also fell in love with the taste of seafood soup after tasting it once, and they stayed by Li Mo's side every day. After Li Mo ate three large lobsters and one large crab, he gave them one of the remaining two lobsters and three large crabs, and poured the soup into a trough made of tree trunks to satisfy their appetite.
"Let's have a seafood barbecue tomorrow. I wonder if there are other wild animals in those forests?" Li Mo is a carnivore. Since he woke up from the injury, he has basically never eaten meat again, and he misses it very much.
As for these little monkeys, since they are well-behaved and cute, and a little bit humane, let them continue to live happily.
After eating and drinking, Li Mo cleaned the dishes and put them back into the cave. Then he sat at the entrance of the cave and looked into the distance. The sun was setting in the west, and the last remaining light shone on him. At this moment, his clothes were in tatters, his hair was fluffy and messy, and even the beard on his face was very long, making him look like a wild man.
"Mom, dad, master, master, sister, Ying Ying Sirui, grandpa and grandma... are everyone okay?"
Li Mo murmured that after the last ray of sunlight disappeared, he would pull a vine and slowly descend from the top of the cave to make a door made of a tree as thick as an arm, mainly to prevent anything dangerous in the middle of the night. Get in. Although I haven't encountered anything so far, I am prepared for any danger.
It was another new day. Li Mo was woken up by the cry of monkeys outside. He raised the wooden door and carved a horizontal line on the stone wall with a knife. Then he stretched his head and looked down the cave. Today there were not five alarm clocks, but more than ten, squatting there and looking up at themselves.
Li Mo thought that this group of foodies wanted to drink seafood soup again, but a ray of light reflected into his eyes. After taking a closer look, the largest monkey king among them actually held a transparent crystal-like object in his hand, which was about the size of a goose egg.
"Holy shit, what the Monkey King is holding isn't a gem, is it?" The first reaction in Li Mo's mind was that the Monkey King had become a spirit. He didn't know where he picked up a completely transparent thing. Could it be that he wanted to come and exchange it? ?
He walked along the ladder to the lake. All the monkeys dispersed in a hurry. Only the monkey king Li Mo bared his teeth, and then handed him what he suspected to be a gem in his hand.
Li Mo took it and looked at the rising sun, and couldn't help but said: "Damn, it's an original diamond, it's so big."
Li Mo didn't know whether to be happy or sad. Such a large uncut diamond was actually so big. How much would it be worth if it were left outside? But no matter how valuable it is, so what, here it is no different from a piece of stone, worthless.
"Where did you get this?"
Li Mo couldn't help but ask, and then realized that it was just a monkey, and he could really communicate with it.
Zhizhizhi—
Unexpectedly, the monkey king jumped up and down happily and ran into the distance. After running a short distance, he stopped and looked back at him, signaling for him to follow quickly.
"I will call you Sun Dasheng from now on. If you really find the treasure, you can drink the seafood soup for you."
The Monkey King didn't understand what Sun Dasheng meant, but he definitely understood what the seafood soup was about. So he took Li Mo and ran all the way to the other side of the island. Li Mo followed closely behind, and then he saw dozens of little monkeys chasing him.
