On the road.

Guan Canghai has been paying attention to both sides to see if there is anything edible.

Even if he can climb trees, he will probably run out of coconuts at some point. Besides, people can't live on coconuts alone. Whether it's pulp or juice, it's too cold and people will definitely not be able to bear it if they eat too much.

"Huh? Tequila!"

Along the roadside, Guan Canghai spotted a treasure that could be called a golden item at a glance.

Agave is a plant used to make tequila in Mexico. The whole plant can be said to be a treasure. Its leaves have sparse thorns, which contain a fiber that is very tough.

Some tribes in North America still use fibers extracted from agave leaves as sewing thread.

The fiber can even be used to make fishing line.

not only that……

The agave rhizome and the base of the leaves are edible and they are rich in starch.

Starch is a type of sugar.

Everyone needs to consume enough sugar every day to avoid hypoglycemia.

When the body runs out of sugar, it begins to use up muscle, quickly leading to malnutrition.

Therefore, when large amounts of protein cannot be found in Guan Canghai, starch contained in plants has become the most important demand at present.

But……

Standing in front of Guan Canghai was a giant agave with a diameter of more than ten meters. Its long thorns looked like sharp blades. Guan Canghai suddenly felt at a loss and didn't know where to start.

Still lost because I was defenseless!

You need to stab slowly with a spear made of branches. You don't know how long it will take to remove the agave leaves and take out the roots inside.

Guan Canghai thought for a while and decided to put the plan of using agave as food on hold for the time being.

Agave is poisonous if eaten directly without heating, and it is inconvenient to carry it up the mountain now. Therefore, he decided to go around the mountain first, and if he couldn't find suitable food, he would deal with the huge agave!



"ha--"

Just when Guan Cang was looking for food on the mountain, Li Ping finally woke up from her dream.

She stretched lazily, then rubbed her nose, then sat up lazily, looked at Ling Yan who was playing with firewood by the campfire, and said, "Mr. Ling, you got up so early. "

"It's getting late. Ling Yan looked at her watch and said, "An hour ago, Guan Canghai went to the mountains to look for food. "

"Guan Canghai has gone uphill?"

Upon hearing this, Li Ping subconsciously looked in the direction of the thatched shed built by Guan Canghai. She suddenly had an idea in her mind: "That guy tricked us into taking a bunch of good things last night and exchanged them for this fire and a few logs. I'm going to put out his bonfire now to see if he still wants to do it." I don’t want to exchange anything for it!”

"Isn't this bad?" Ling Yan frowned and said, "Guan Canghai didn't do anything to us when he passed near us in the morning. I was wondering if I had some misunderstandings about him before."

"What misunderstanding? This kid is a pervert!"

Li Ping snorted coldly: "He knew the president was in the bathroom, but he deliberately broke in. He just wanted to spy on you taking a shower. He is really the best scumbag!"

"In addition to this, he also installed a pinhole camera in my room. If I hadn't seen something glowing, I wouldn't have known he had done such a despicable thing!!"

"Then how can you be so sure that he installed the camera?"

Ling Yan discovered a small flaw in Li Ping's words.

In fact, Ling Yan later thought carefully about the incident of Guan Canghai breaking into the women's bathroom, and she felt something was wrong anyway.

If Guan Canghai wants to take a peek, there is a way that is a hundred times better than the current method. He will not be stupid enough to make fun of his own future.

Entering the women's bathroom openly, isn't this a mistake?

Besides...

If Guan Canghai really wanted to peep, he would not wait at the door of the women's bathroom and go out of his way to explain to her.

Just when Guan Canghai was about to explain, Li Ping happened to come out and accuse Guan Canghai of secretly installing cameras. If this happened alone, it might be called an accident.

However, the fact that these things all happened at the same time seems to be more than just a coincidence.

"I……"

Li Ping was a little stunned, and then she said hesitantly: "Uh... I just know..."

"Mr. Ling, you just know...well, you just know about the camera. It's inside the camera...Yes, there is a memory card in the camera. Then my husband Lu Zhuang plugged it into the computer and discovered that the camera was installed at that time. Guan Canghai...his face is facing the camera...

"Guan Canghai is so stupid, the camera he installed himself even captured himself!

"If we hadn't happened to encounter a ship accident, I would have called the police and asked the police to catch this gangster and put him in jail!"

At first, Li Ping spoke hesitantly, but later she became very smooth, as if the incident really happened.

Upon hearing this, Ling Yan was almost certain that Li Ping was lying.

Li Ping didn't think of an excuse at first, so she had to use some inconsistent and repetitive words to delay time, and then quickly thought of an excuse.

As soon as she thinks of a reason, she starts making up stories, and her language becomes more and more fluent as time goes by!

However, for Ling Yan, she felt that there were still many flaws in this story that she thought was perfectly crafted.

but now……

Ling Yan glanced at the backpack Li Ping was carrying and the dagger she held in her hand. These were very precious things.

It was not appropriate for her to fall out with Li Ping now, so she could only nod in agreement: "It's really wrong to take secret photos, but he did help us a lot last night. On this island, resources are hard to find. If we don't have fire and supplies, I'm afraid I still need his help, so I think..."

"Mr. Ling, do you want to eat cookies?"

Li Ping didn't listen to what Ling Yan said, but took out two packs of biscuits, handed one to Ling Yan, and tore one pack open herself and started eating.

Ling Yan had no choice but to take the biscuit, stop talking, tear open the biscuit, and eat it in small bites.

Without resources, he has no qualifications to speak, not to mention that he is still sprained.

"Thanks."

"I don't have much to eat anymore. I have two coconuts left. Each of us will lose one." Li Ping felt slightly distressed and opened a hole in the coconut with a knife. She handed it to Ling Yan and said, "Mr. Ling, we We have to go down the mountain to find some food. Usually when the tide goes out, there will be some seafood and the like. If you pick up some casually, you should be able to eat enough."

"Li Ping, I'm very sorry, my feet..."

Ling Yan looked at her ankle. She didn't know when she sprained it, and it was already a little red and swollen.

She really couldn't walk. In this place without medical care, Ling Yan had to be careful of her feet deteriorating, otherwise her future life would only be more difficult and miserable.
