Chapter 40: Will the pretty girl's bath water smell a little?

The deep pit is situated at the back of the cave and can be accessed via a relatively easy route.

Weeds line the path, so thick that it feels like standing on a soft, spongy pad when stepping on them.

Amidst the sound of trampling, Zhang Liu and Anya followed Qin Rushuang through a rugged area before finally reaching the entrance to the pit.

Zhang Liu carefully approached, understanding why Qin Rushuang had chosen this place for bathing or as a tank. The depth exceeds one meter, with a diameter of about two meters; when filled with water, even a boy like Zhang Liu can soak in it simultaneously.

As for Anya...

He glanced at Anya with strange eyes, a rough idea forming in his mind.

It should be enough to accommodate three people without being too crowded. Judging by the size, it could be used as a shower point or a tank.

Zhang Liu refrained from casually checking the situation, as the depth was visually measured by Qin Rushuang from the leaves and grasses inside to the entrance of the hole.

No one knows its depth after descending.

Qin Rushuang instinctively emptied the contents and filled it with water to use as a water tank or bathtub.

Girls are really full of naive ideas, Zhang Liu thought, looking at Qin Rushuang, full of expectations and unable to suppress a helpless smile.

Cleaning up fallen leaves, dead grass, and debris is a significant project in and of itself. Even after cleaning, fetching water from the cave remains a huge task.

Although the three worked hard to fill the water, what if the goat-like animal seen last night came to drink and declared supremacy by defecating on it?

Forget about defecation; what if it used invisible urine?

Zhang Liu, lost in thought, suddenly realized he might have almost missed a brilliant idea!

"Amazing!" Zhang Liu's heart enlightened, and he looked at Qin Rushuang, saying, "This hole is really incredible!"

If not for the gender difference, he would have the desire to embrace her right now.

Qin Rushuang was a bit slow to grasp, not understanding why Zhang Liu was so excited. Could it be that Zhang Liu also wanted to take a shower? Such a thought crossed her mind.

“When I was awake last night, I saw something resembling a goat drinking water near our pond. This means this place must be a water source for nearby creatures,” Zhang Liu explained, pointing to the hole while touching his chin.

“I'll go into the forest this afternoon to find food and store it. Starting in the evening, I'll light a fire outside the cave to scare off the creature and prevent it from drinking the water here. I'll clean it tomorrow during the day and turn it into a trap with water as bait."

Zhang Liu worried about unexpected issues while searching for supplies on the wreckage of the plane, potentially delaying his return. This could lead to a shortage of supplies for Qin Rushuang and Anya. Despite their interactions in the past few days, he felt they still had some unrealistic expectations, like wanting to use the stone pit as a bathtub or tank.

Now that he was here, he thought of ways to correct this and prevent anything from going wrong in their absence.

As long as they could catch the creature, 90% of their problems would be solved, providing enough meat for Zhang Liu, Qin Rushuang, and Anya, ensuring food reserves for a long period.

Thinking of this, he became excited. However, Zhang Liu still didn't dare to enter the pit recklessly. He moved a stone, roughly the size of three fists, from the side and threw it directly into the pit.

“Poof...” It was like being thrown into a mud pit. Amidst the seemingly dry fallen leaves in the hole, a thick black liquid suddenly exploded around the fallen stones, accompanied by a rotting smell in the air.

“It stinks!” Anya immediately covered her nose and frowned. Qin Rushuang next to her had an unpleasant expression too. Neither expected the hole they intended to use as a bathroom to contain smelly mud.

Compared to the two girls who looked disgusted, Zhang Liu appeared very happy.

The stone that was thrown was only partially submerged, indicating it was not a deep hole below, and there wasn't a lot of mold.

Excited at the thought of exploring the wreckage the day after tomorrow, Zhang Liu decided to go back to eating due to his extremely hungry stomach.

“Let's go back to eat and deal with this tomorrow,” he said, looking at a slightly disappointed Qin Rushuang. “The black mud here is just tree leaves, grass blades, rainwater, etc., piled up together, causing rot. I'll take them all out and throw them away.”

Anya asked, “Will the hole be clean?”

Zhang Liu assured, “Of course. There was a lot of dry grass on the way here. I'll pick up more tomorrow and throw it here to burn. After drying, it'll be easier to handle.”

After explaining his plan, Zhang Liu suggested going back to eat oysters first and parting ways in the afternoon. He then turned to Qin Rushuang and asked if she felt her body returning to normal.

“Yes!” Qin Rushuang nodded confidently. “Now I'm like an ordinary person!”

Zhang Liu proposed that in the afternoon, she could check the nearby beach for driftwood to pick up and store.

“I think there's already a big basin of boiling water here. I'll use it today and tomorrow. I guess there's no problem...”

"Nooo" Anya immediately objected, stating that the water in the large basin was not drinkable.

Perplexed, Zhang Liu looked at Anya, not understanding her strong reaction.

“Anya used that water to wipe her body. I asked her to keep it because I wanted to pour it into the hole,” Qin Rushuang explained, showing some embarrassment. “I will pour it in the afternoon.”

Zhang Liu, realizing he had drunk from the basin, covered his mouth without answering.

He initially thought the slightly salty smell in the water was due to plant ash on the gravel.

Now that he thinks about it, he's afraid...

He tried hard to control his eyes so as not to look at Anya, but Zhang Liu looked like this, and there was no need to explain anymore.

Anya desperately asked if he had drunk it, and Qin Rushuang's expression became complicated.

She never expected Zhang Liu to find himself in this situation.
