Chapter 21: stood Up to clean the Body.

Chapter 21: stood Up to clean the Body.

After the sun had completely risen in the sky, Anya, standing next to Zhang Liu watching the sunrise, suddenly said, “Zhang Liu, what should I do today?”

"Ah?" Zhang Liu was stunned for a moment; he didn't know why Anya was asking him this.

“Well, Zhang Liu, tell me what I should do.” Qin Rushuang also said, “I didn’t know what to do after I cleaned up yesterday.”

At this moment, Anya and Qin Rushuang seemed to be looking to Zhang Liu for guidance.

“Today... how about this? Anya, let's go to the forest together in the morning. You pick Jiabao fruits for food, and I will prepare things for the fire.”

For Zhang Liu, if he wanted to make fire with his bare hands in the wilderness, his knowledge was limited to casual wilderness survival videos and learning how to use wood for fire.

But the importance of fire in the wilderness is indispensable.

So his plan for himself was to work hard to light some fire today.

"Okay!" Anya nodded slightly, then put the Jiabao fruit into her mouth again.

The taste of this thing is very sweet, but the pulp is relatively small.

But that was enough to satisfy her, and at least she didn't have to eat things like coconut meat.

“Qin Rushuang, how are you today?” Zhang Liu did not directly assign work to Qin Rushuang, but he inquired about the other party's situation.

The scene where Qin Rushuang was weak and pale left a heavy psychological impact on him.

“My condition is not bad. In fact, I usually only feel uncomfortable when it gets dark and cold from the second day onwards.” Qin Rushuang smiled, then stretched out her hand, pushed a few hairs next to her ears, and said, “Don’t pay too much attention to me; just get work in order.'"

“Okay, so you can collect more coconuts that fell on the ground and put them there, then use the coconut shells to fill with fresh water as a reserve for daily use?” Zhang Liu thought for a moment, then asked hesitantly, “Is it not too tiring?”

Easy to say: collect some coconuts.

But basically, Qin Rushuang needs to keep traveling back and forth between the coconut forest and the cave, and she needs to carry at least some each time.

Zhang Liu put himself in her place, feeling that even he would be a little tired.

Anya also looked at Qin Rushuang with a worried expression.

“I will try to move as much as possible.” Qin Rushuang nodded, indicating that she knew what was happening, then told Anya, who was standing next to Zhang Liu, “You have to be more careful this time.”

After Qin Rushuang warned her like a child, Anya, who had a strong sense of self-respect, suddenly became angry.

“Gather at noon. Then I will try to use the wood to start a fire in the cave.”

Zhang Liu took Anya, and they separated from Qin Rushuang in the coconut forest, then waved goodbye.

Anya also turned around and prepared to wave.

But when she saw the smile on Qin Rushuang's face, she suddenly felt embarrassed in her heart.

So after making an angry face at her, she jumped up and followed Zhang Liu.

Only one mineral water bottle was found, and it was already filled with water, so Zhang Liu and Anya took it away.

There is another bottle, according to Anya, not far from where the bottle was found yesterday. It's just that something unexpected happened yesterday, so they didn't look for it.

This time Zhang Liu took off, and that was also one of his goals.

“Zhang Liu, can you really use wood to make fire?” Anya suddenly asked after following Zhang Liu.

“Of course… no.” Zhang Liu looked at the ground carefully, trying to avoid the thick tree roots exposed on the gravel surface, then said, “I’ve only seen it in wilderness survival videos.”

“Ah, that's not what I thought.” He suddenly felt a slight disappointment in Anya's tone.

“Whatever it is, it's better than just knowing the five words. 'carving wood to make fire' At least now I will choose the upgraded version of “Carving wood to make fire.” Zhang Liu shrugged, then took the old man’s beard from the tree-shaped plant and put it in his pocket.

This procedure was repeated several times.

“Zhang Liu, what the heck is this?” Anya couldn't help but ask as she watched Zhang Liu continue to gather supplies.

“Hmm... It seems it's called Usnea Tillandsia. But it's also called Old Man's Beard. According to those videos, it's said that this thing is good at starting fires.” Zhang Liu smiled, then pointed to his bulging pants pockets on his thighs and said, "The amount here is the same."

“Speaking of which, should I take your shirt today?” Anya nodded, then looked at the Jiabao Fruit Orchard not far away and said, “Is there any other way?”

“No...” After taking off the clothes that had been dried by body temperature last night and handing them to Anya, Zhang Liu said embarrassedly, “It has already become hard.”

Reaching out her hand to pick up the clothes that Zhang Liu handed over, Anya looked at the other person's naked upper body, then her face suddenly turned red.

She felt ambiguous about Zhang Liu's words.

After you took off your clothes, you said it was hard.

"What's the problem?" Zhang Liu saw that Anya had not withdrawn her hand for a long time, so he couldn't help but ask, "Why are you so startled?"

“It's okay... I just feel that you have a scent.” Anya raised her head and looked at Zhang Liu, then made up a random reason.

“There's nothing we can do about it.” He raised his arm and inhaled hard. The slightly strong smell of sweat made Zhang Liu feel helpless.

It is true that you can bathe with sea water, but the key is that after washing, your body will be sticky and not fresh, and you must rely on clean water to rinse it off.

“Hmm...” Anya nodded slightly, then took Zhang Liu’s clothes to pick up the fruit.

Although there should be plenty of time before noon, she and Zhang Liu needed to walk because the actual time they could use was really short.

Anya has already started working, and Zhang Liu is naturally not idle either.

He stretched out the flexible roots of the tree and dropped them on the ground, then continuously collected dry branches of appropriate size from the tree or the ground.

After a lot of work, Zhang Liu had already packed a good bundle of wood, and in his current opinion, it was particularly suitable for testing fire-making tools.

Then he sat under the shade of a tree and rested.

As for Anya, she had already completed the assembly work early and went to look for the mineral water bottle she had left behind.

However, to prevent this terrible situation from getting lost, she did not pass through the forest; instead, she followed Zhang Liu's instructions and took a detour from the beach outside.

………………………

“It's so hot...” On the other side, in the coconut grove, Qin Rushuang was going the sixth time and walked to the cave, then sat down on a stone slab to rest weakly.

Even though she pretended to be very capable in front of Zhang Liu, only her body knew how weak she was.

Just six times had already consumed Qin Rushuang's entire strength.

After moving this, let's take a break and save water. Maybe we can anoint ourselves with our colleague Anya tonight.

The stake that Zhang Liu would use for cleaning should also be kept.

Looking at the small pile of coconut shells placed next to the pond and the numerous coconut shells filled with water next to the pile of coconut shells, Qin Rushuang couldn't help but smile happily.

As a girl, she likes to be clean.

What's more, this is her period; some places need to be cleaned daily under normal circumstances!

There was no way before, but now she has the circumstances.

Qin Rushuang stood on her tiptoes, placed two coconut shells filled with fresh water into the cave, and then gently came up from the side.

She took off her sweater, took off her bra, and placed it on the clean stone slab, taking a deep breath of air to encourage herself.

What you do next requires a lot of focus!
