Chapter 117: Only when you are poor do you know what is precious

After four days of hurrying, he finally turned all these fish into salted dried fish, looking at the fish meat hanging on the rows and rows of drying racks, Jiang Hao felt like a rich man at this moment.

So rich!!

Yes, when a person is worried about food and suddenly has a lot of food, then he is happy and satisfied.

With these fish and meat, Jiang Hao didn't have to worry about food for several months.

What to eat today?

Yesterday on the side of the reef beach, he found a thin and flat stone slab half a meter square, Jiang Hao felt that this could be made into a barbecue board to use.

Put it under the fire, the charcoal fire is vigorous, the slate is hot, the fresh fish is put on, and there is a frying sound, Jiang Hao deliberately chooses a place with more fat, and the fish comes out as soon as it touches the high temperature, and it is cooked in just half a minute.

Lightly sprinkle with a little joint salt and put the fish in your mouth.

Well~~

It's a treat.

"Ding~~ Collect the feeling of "loneliness", please keep up the efforts of the collector! ”

The system is messing with it again.

Damn it

Eating everything says I'm lonely.

Jiang Hao rolled his eyes and ignored him.

After eating, Jiang Hao had no desire to hunt, looking at the woods behind him, Jiang Hao suddenly had the idea of exploring carefully.

Although the island is not large, it is about two square kilometers long, and the rest of the place is densely wooded except for the beach and the cliff.

A few days ago, I was struggling for survival and food, but now that the food is available, it's time to explore the island more closely.

The main reason is that he can't only eat fish and meat, which will make him severely deficient in vitamins for a long time, and the most direct way to obtain vitamins is vegetables and fruits, and he hopes to be able to harvest.

Putting on sneakers, wrapping his head in a plaid shirt, holding a spear in his hand, and a dagger and ice blade axe pinned to his waist, Jiang Hao set off on his own journey of island exploration.

Most of the trees are coconut trees, rubber trees, and palm trees, of course, there are other plants, some of which Jiang Hao knows, such as Tahitian gardenia trees, vermilion bananas, Zhu Jin flowers, frangipani, orchids, but many more he can't name.

Jiang Hao also found some useful things, such as some tree vines, Jiang Hao found that the bark of this kind of tree vine is a good plant fiber, as long as it is dried and rubbed, it can be made into a strong rope.

This is important.

Jiang Hao also found two kinds of ferns, these two ferns grow more widely on the island, their shoots are edible, some similar to Chinese bracken, which are very good as vegetables, and can also be pickled for later use.

Immediately, Jiang Hao picked some, wrapped them in his shirt, and prepared them for dinner, he hadn't eaten vegetables for several days, and his mouth was very greedy.

Continuing to explore, Jiang Hao suddenly let out an exclamation,

"Wow!!"

Running quickly to the foot of a tree, Jiang Hao looked up at the plump fruits, and couldn't help laughing: "It seems that God hasn't given up on me, hahaha." ”

He actually found papaya.

In fact, Jiang Hao didn't like to eat papaya before, mainly because the taste was not good, and there were a lot of fruits that were better than papaya, so it was because the legend could enlarge breasts and was very popular with women, and I didn't know if it had any effect.

Jiang Hao didn't care about that, circled around the tree twice, and finally found a slightly yellowish fruit, twisted it down, cut it directly with a knife, and couldn't wait to gnaw it.

Wahaha~~

Wahaha~~

Everyone has a smile on their faces~~~~

I really didn't think this thing was so delicious before, two fist-sized papayas, Jiang Hao ate them all in one go.

Perhaps it is only when you are poor that you know what is precious.

After eating the papaya, Jiang Hao searched around again, and found a total of three papaya trees, papayas are relatively high-yielding, each tree bears more than a dozen fruits, Jiang Hao picked three yellowed ones, and prepared to take them back to eat.

After thinking about it, he picked up the papaya seeds on the ground and planted them in a nearby place where there was soil, he didn't know how long he would live on the island, the movie actor Chuck lived on the island for four years, and he had to plan for a rainy day.

Even if you can't use it, you can make some small feedback for the fruit that the papaya tree gives you.

Bidding farewell to the papaya tree, Jiang Hao continued to explore the island, and just when he saw the opposite coast and felt that there would be no more harvest, he suddenly found a strange forest.

Jiang Hao looked at it carefully for a long time, and finally determined that this was a kava tree.

The kava tree is a kind of pepper tree, which grows widely on the islands of the South Pacific, and Jiang Hao did not know it before, but it was this kind of tree that he knew when he went to Fiji this time.

Kava juice is known as Fiji's national drink, also called mud cola, in fact, he is not wine, the local people use kava tree rhizomes to mash and add water, it is made into mud cola, Jiang Hao once tasted, this drink has a menthol taste, and a little bit of grass and wood, it is a heat and thirst-quenching drink, it does not contain any alcohol, but has the effect of paralyzing nerves, a small amount of drinking, has a relaxing effect, drink too much, it will be like drunk wine.

Therefore, it is also known as Fiji cola, cava, and its Latin name is also "intoxicating pepper".

Kava juice contains natural active substances that act on the emotional center of the brain to exert its physiological effects and relax the mind and body. It has sedative-hypnotic, antifungal, antithrombosis, anti-fatigue, weight loss, muscle relaxant effects, and is a good anti-anxiety and depressant agent.

Well, a lot of people also equate him with Da Ma.

Making a mud cola is as simple as mashing the roots into juice or cutting them into small pieces and brewing them with boiling water.

Jiang Hao immediately dug two roots.

Now there is tea to drink.

Back at the station, Jiang Hao was in a very good mood, this exploration of the island was not small, although there were only papaya, kava and two bracken, but these things were very important to him, and they were indispensable for his future life.

Dinner, Jiang Hao's cooking is simple and hearty.

The main course is grilled fish with bracken, the tuna meat is fatty and tender, the bracken absorbs the fat, crisp and delicious, and it is served with a papaya dessert, and after the meal, a glass of kava juice makes my head dizzy and I feel like I'm drifting.

Hehe, that's what life is called.

Take the first batch of dried salted fish back to the cave and hang it on the wall on the left, so that the fish made in the next two days can be dried in one more day, and the whole cave will be filled with dried fish.

Lying on the stone bed, Jiang Hao picked up Whitman's "Leaves of Grass" and looked at it with relish.

"I'm calm and calm, wandering in nature,

He dominates all things and flatters all things, and is calm in the chaos of the world,

Melt with one another, like them, docile, tolerant, and silent,

I found what I had, what I lost, my notoriety, my weaknesses, my sins,

It's not as important as I thought it would be.

I imagined myself in the Mexican Sea, in Manahata, inland or far north,

On the coast, in the lake district, in the jungle, in the fields,

To be a fisherman, a ferryman, a lumberjack, or a farmer,

No matter where I live, I can deal with the unknown calmly,

Like trees and wild beasts,

Face darkness, storms, famine, ridicule, hardship, and apathy. ”

......

Well, this guy wrote well, and he successfully made Jiang Hao drowsy, his hand slowly hung down, the poetry collection slipped down, and Jiang Hao slowly fell asleep.
