As night fell, the chirping of insects could be heard.
In a hidden place upstream of a river, a bonfire was brightly lit. Fang Duo and the others added dry wood to the bonfire to keep the fire burning. At the same time, they peeled the fish that had been washed from the middle of the fish belly and inserted a thin wooden stick with water into it, sticking it around the bonfire to roast it.
"Ah Duo, lighting such a big bonfire in the jungle, will it attract the attention of the wild beasts?”Zhao Liying said as she leaned against Fang Duo's right.
Fang Duo flipped the grilled fish and said to her with a smile,"In the dark of the night, if you don't light a fire, it's easy to lose heat. Second, you can't see it in the dark. Wild animals have good night vision and a good sense of smell, so they can find you even if you don't light a fire.”
" Moreover, wild animals are naturally afraid of fire. The smell of fire produced by a burning bonfire is a very scary thing for wild animals. Wild animals will watch from afar and will never approach a bonfire unless necessary.”
This was also why he had lit such a big bonfire. Generally speaking, the sense of smell of wild beasts was far stronger than their sight. For example, bears could smell food from about two kilometers away, but their sight was terrible.
Therefore, there were three things to remember when camping in a place where wild beasts roamed: 1. Firecrackers are better than knives. 2. The leftover food must be sealed. 3. When you smell the aroma of barbecued meat, there must be carnivorous beasts lurking around.
Fang Duo knew these three points, but he had no choice but to increase the bonfire as much as possible to increase the fear of the wild beasts.
After all, he needed fish meat to maintain his energy. The high-intensity activities in the wild had long emptied his stomach. In order to maintain his body in the best state at all times, it was especially important to absorb the calories in the fish meat.
However, these fish were all freshwater fish, and they usually carried clonorchids and blood flukes. It was easy to get infected if they were eaten raw.
"Crackle!"
The sound of the flames burning could be heard from time to time. The high temperature sizzled the fish meat. By the time the fragrance spread, the entire fish was basically cooked. Fang Duo took one for Zhao Liying and took one for himself.
"Mmm, it's delicious!" Zhao Liying complimented him and narrowed her eyes in satisfaction.
Seeing that Fang Duo and the others had already begun to eat the fish, the others also started to eat one bite at a time!
The fish meat was so delicious and tender that everyone wanted to swallow their tongues.
He didn't expect the fish in this river to be so fat!
" It's too delicious, sob…Although there are no seasonings or salt, this is the most delicious grilled fish I've ever eaten in my life. I hope that after tomorrow, I can still live to eat grilled fish and roasted meat…No matter what, I hope that I can leave this Strange Fog Islands alive. I don't have to complain about my mother's terrible food anymore…" A female university student suddenly choked. It was obvious that she was thinking about her uncertain future.
On the other side, the muscular man sucked on the delicious food on his fingers and nodded in agreement."That's right. Even if it's for my family, for the sake of food, I have to leave alive!”
"If you want to eat, then shut your mouth and eat properly. Why are you talking so much nonsense?”Tianguo pouted as she said this.
Ye Cunxin shook her head, a smile on her cold face. She could see that the sufficient grilled fish had satisfied everyone. Their physical condition had recovered, and their mental state had also improved a lot. All of this was because of the food intake.
In the wild, if there was no food, it would enter a vicious cycle. On the contrary, if there was enough food, it could maintain its high momentum.
Therefore, she knew very well why Fang Duo would deliberately look for Buddleja to stun the fish. These grilled fish were very important to all of them!
What a meticulous man, Ye Cunxin thought as he looked at Fang Duo's back.
Compared to the others, Fang Duo was not completely full. He was still a little hungry, because being too full would make people enter a lazy state of mind, which would make them even more dangerous when facing wild beasts and other threats.
He had to be in his best condition at all times and could not be careless at all. Then, he ordered a few people to clean up the leftover fish bones nearby and throw them into the river to be washed away by the running water to prevent the smell from attracting the attention of more wild beasts.
He then picked up the drunken fish grass and walked in front of Ye Cunxin and Hou Longtao. He handed it to Hou Longtao and said,"This thing has a healing effect on external bleeding. If you rub it and apply it on the wound, it will have a miraculous effect.”
"Thanks." Hou Longtao took the Buddleja and thanked him profusely. He knew that Fang Duo had done a lot. It could be said that without Fang Duo, the number of survivors would have been reduced by two-thirds. Therefore, his gratitude came from the bottom of his heart and was very sincere.
Fang Duo didn't reply. After giving the Buddleja to Zhao Liying, he walked to his hammock and smiled when he saw the smile on Zhao Liying's face." Liying, this hammock is very big. There are a lot of insects and ants on the ground. How about we sleep together?"”
