"Cough cough cough cough..."
"Bah...bah..."
In the end, the boat last night could not withstand the ravages of the typhoon.
Tang Ping was also lucky, and he only escaped death by holding a wooden box at the end.
When I woke up again, I was already on a coast, and my mouth was full of sand and a few water plants.
He shook his head vigorously to keep himself awake, and found that there were some broken wood and boards around him.
But no one saw anyone. Could it be that he was the only one washed up on this island?
At this moment, there was a rustling sound behind him. When he turned around, he saw that it was Zhen Yougan, with disheveled hair dragging a wooden stick towards him.
Tang Ping was about to say hello, but he didn't expect Zhen Youqian to directly raise the wooden stick and hit him.
It was too late to stand up and run, so Tang Ping could only roll on the spot and hide.
"Your Highness, what are you... doing?"
"I hurt your grandma's legs!" Zhen Yougan angrily hit him with the stick again, and Tang Ping had no choice but to roll back.
"Your Highness, I, I...Jack."
Those two sticks seemed to have consumed most of Zhen Youqian's strength. He pounded the sticks and gasped, "It's your uncle's fault. Just pretend. Give it to me." Then pretend!"
Tang Ping touched his face with his hand, and then he remembered that because of the storm yesterday, the disguise on his face had been washed away long ago, so he could no longer hide his identity.
Grabbing half a wooden stick, Tang Ping stood up, pointed at Zhen Yougan and said, "Now is not the time for internal fighting. How about we..."
Before he finished speaking, Zhen Yougan regained some strength and rushed over again.
Tang Ping had no choice but to wave the wooden stick in his hand to fight.
The fight between these two people, let alone a fight between children, was at least so serious that Cheng Zhijie's dog would shake its head when it came.
Zhen Youqian was born as a general and had practiced martial arts since he was a child, but later on he was exhausted by drinking and sex.
Tang Ping, on the other hand, would practice his skills from time to time after coming to Datang, resulting in the two having equal combat power, with basically 10 points of combat power.
However, due to various reasons such as the storm last night, the combat power of the two of them has been reduced now, so this is a showdown between two scumbags.
Finally, when Zhen Yougan hit Tang Ping on the arm with a stick and made him grin, Tang Ping also hit Zhen Yougan on the ridge of the head with a stick.
】
When Zhen Yougan screamed and fell to the ground, Tang Ping also took a few steps back.
"Huhuhu..." Tang Ping gasped and asked, "Zhen Yougan, do you know where this is?"
"I...huh...I don't care where...this is?" Zhen Yougan tried to stand up with a stick: "You have lied to me for so long, I must kill you today!"
To be honest, Zhen Yougan has never "liked" someone so much.
Well, it's not that kind of liking, it's just that I have never had a subordinate who could be so in line with me. It's just like the feeling that Liu Bei felt like a fish in water after meeting Wolong in the Three Kingdoms.
After recognizing Tang Ping's identity, although he didn't know what Tang Ping did, he must have deceived him about the fairy mountain incident.
He also foolishly forged General Rong's order and transferred hundreds of warships from Maoshanjiao.
Therefore, for various reasons, Zhen Youqian hated Tang Ping so much that he wished he could rush up and beat him to death with a stick.
"Yes, you can, you can kill me, and then what? Have you ever lived alone on an island like this? Do you know when your people or mine will find this island?"
"What are you going to eat and drink here alone?"
"I..." Zhen Youqian was stunned by what he said. He was born as a young man. He had never done anything like cooking in the wild, let alone survival in the wild, even cooking with his own hands.
What Tang Ping said really touched upon his blind spots in knowledge.
"I can fish!" he said, pointing to the sea to one side.
"Fishing? Where's your hook? Where's your fishing line? Do you know how to get fishing bait?"
"I..." Zhen Yougan hesitated for a while, not only because Tang Ping got to the point, but also because of all the fuss last night, he was already hungry.
"Okay, even if you can catch fish, do you know how to make a fire? Can you eat raw fish? The most important point is that people can live for seven days without eating, but they can only live for three days without drinking water. You Do you want to drink this sea water?"
After being at sea for so long, Zhen Youqian still knew that seawater was not drinkable.
But when Tang Ping said this, why did he feel like he was worthless and like a waste?
Zhen Youqian got angry again: "You talk so much, as if you know everything."
"Yes, of course I know everything!" Tang Ping said matter-of-factly: "You don't know who is the smartest person in the Tang Dynasty, right?"
Some people indeed say that Tang Ping is the smartest person in the Tang Dynasty. Tang Ping's words left Zhen Youqian speechless.
"Don't His Highness the Crown Prince like to bet? Why don't we make a bet?"
"What bet?"
"Just bet on whose life it is!" Tang Ping said with a smile: "Look at the two of us living on this desert island, two people are always better than one. Your people must be looking for you now, and mine must be there too. Find me."
"Let's bet on whose people find us first. If your people find us first, then I will naturally not be able to escape from your grasp."
Zhen Yougan thought about it, and it seemed that this was really the only way to go now. No matter what, he still had a hundred warships, and how many ships did Tang Ping only have? In terms of probability, my chances of winning are much greater.
And if he doesn't wait too long, it won't be too late to kill Tang Ping after he learns how to live on this isolated island.
"Okay, I made a bet with you. Now you can make a fire to dry my clothes, and then get some food and water."
"Your Highness, please understand. We are now in a cooperative relationship. The only one on this island is you and I, so we both have to work."
As he spoke, Tang Ping snapped his fingers a few times: "Look, I'm not Thanos. I can make my wishes come true just by snapping my fingers. So if you want to make a fire, you have to find something to burn first."
Zhen Youqian didn't know who Thanos was, and didn't like the feeling of being led by Tang Ping, but he knew that what he said was right.
I could only stand up helplessly, cursing and going to find firewood.
"Talk less and it won't be so easy to cough. There are dry firewood to pick up, but wet ones can't be lit."
Zhen You rolled his eyes at him and actually closed his mouth.
Tang Ping took a breath and finally stabilized this guy. In fact, he was pretending to be calm.
As a modern man, he has no experience of surviving on such a deserted island. If he were alone on this island, to be honest, he would be panicked.
Although Zhen Youqian is currently hostile to him, he is still a living person who can communicate with him and cooperate with him to survive.
By then, even if it was Zhen Youqian's people who found this place first, he would still be able to find a way to use him as a hostage.
Otherwise, if Zhen Yougan's people come and see him and Zhen Yougan's body, why not cut him alive?
As for lighting a fire... I felt my butt was sore when I was doing it on the sand just now. There was a lighter in my pocket.
But eating and drinking is really a big problem.
After standing up, Tang Ping walked dozens of meters into the island and climbed up a relatively large rock.
This island is really small. Looking at the beach on the beach now, it is estimated that it is high tide time.
Standing on this stone, you can almost see the entire island at a glance. In the middle of the island is a small dirt hill and a forest.
But with this area, I don't think there are any wild beasts inside. I just don't know if there are any snakes.
You can see some seabirds in the sky, and you might be able to find some bird eggs in this small forest.
Also, after the tide recedes, I wonder if some sea creatures will be left behind, which are important sources of food.
As for Tamsui, I didn't see any on the island, but Tang Ping discovered something good, that is, there are a lot of coconut trees here.
There are several coconuts hanging on many trees. As long as there is coconut juice in it, it is the best fresh water.
From a distance, you can see Zhen Youqian pulling a lot of things with a stick, but he doesn't know if he can burn them.
As for what was rolled ashore with them, there was nothing but some broken wooden boards. Those wooden boards could be used for some purposes after being collected and dried.
Tang Ping jumped off the stone, and with his sharp eyes, he discovered something good again. Some eggs were vaguely exposed in the sand under the stone.
According to his estimation, this should be the egg of a creature such as a turtle. Yesterday, a typhoon and rain washed away a lot of the sand on the surface, and then it was exposed.
I picked up some dry firewood nearby and lit a small fire before Zhen Yougan came back.
Then he built a small grill with leaves and wood sticks, and put all the turtle eggs he found on it and grilled them.
Zhen Yougan over there saw a fire here and came back dragging some branches and weeds.
"How did you light the fire?" Zhen Youqian asked in surprise.
"Sui Renshi knows, right? I learned from him." Tang Ping said casually, and then carefully controlled the fire below to avoid exploding the turtle eggs above.
"Ha..." Zhen Yougan didn't believe what Tang Ping said, but Tang Ping didn't want to say it and knew he couldn't ask. He just stared at the turtle eggs with their shells full of lines.
Tang Ping looked at the firewood collected by Zhen Yougan. It was pretty good that 60% to 70% of it was dry. It would probably be a bit smoky when lit, but there would definitely be no problem burning it.
"Did you see the tree tied with strips of cloth? Get some firewood and pile it underneath."
"Why is it me again?" Zhen Yougan sat down on the ground: "I brought so much firewood back, and I want to go to you!"
"Hey, Your Highness, you are going too far. You have got a lot of firewood, but don't you think I have prepared our first meal?"
"And aren't you thirsty? Bring these firewood over and I'll treat you to a nice drink later?"
"real?"
"Really! Go quickly, the eggs will be ready in two minutes, and you'll be ready to eat them when you get back."
"Then let me count first. How many are there in total?" Zhen Yougan pointed at the turtle eggs and asked suspiciously, "You didn't keep them secretly, did you?"
"No!" Tang Ping couldn't laugh or cry. This child must have been frightened by himself. Now he doesn't believe anything he says: "What's the use of hiding this? Can I still eat it raw? I'm going to cook it." It has to be on this fire, how can I still hide it from you?"
Zhen Yougan thought about it, and then reluctantly turned around and carried some firewood to the tree.
