A Shadow on a Desert Island?
Lu Yan was indeed a person who did not know how to be flexible at times. Jiang Xiaoyu directly interrupted,
"What do you mean by paying off the number of people? Everyone is so tired, how can we gather together? It's just nice that we're all lying in a row now.”
The recruits felt that this method was not bad, so they began to count from the edge. One, two, three, four…
Lu Yan also knew that it was unrealistic to gather everyone and count them. However, the count was also wobbly and unclear, so he could only count them one by one.
Finally, he counted to seventeen.
"Seventeen, we only have seventeen here. In other words, there are still four people who haven't come ashore!”
Zhan Dapeng, who was lying on the beach, propped himself up and said,""It's over, it's over. Zhang Chong and Ah Gan are still soaking in the water!”
When Jiang Xiaoyu heard that, she thought,'Good heavens, no wonder my mission has been delayed. So there are still a few people who haven't come up. This is awkward. When they come up, my mission rating won't be much higher…'
However, no matter what, he had to ensure that everyone went ashore safely. Otherwise, he would probably not be able to complete this mission!
He had to think of a way to get the remaining four people to go ashore!
Jiang Xiaoyu had watched many movies about survival on islands and immediately thought of a way. She said to the other recruits,
"In my opinion, we should start a fire on the beach. There will be fire and smoke. When Zhang Chong and the others see it, they will definitely know that we are here."
Zhan Dapeng said excitedly," Brother Yu's idea is not bad. There are plenty of branches and dead leaves on this island. We can use them to start a fire!"”
After all, the lives of their comrades in the sea were at stake. No matter how tired they were, they had no choice but to move and go to the island to get firewood.
Just as Jiang Xiaoyu was tidying up the twigs that everyone had picked up, Zhan Dapeng suddenly tugged at his sleeve and said,"
"Brother Yu, Brother Yu!"
"What's wrong?" Jiang Xiaoyu turned around and asked.
"I think I saw a figure over there just now…"
When Jiang Xiaoyu heard this, her heart skipped a beat. It was most likely Xiang Yu. The executor of this recruit trial had come so early?
However, there were many people now, and the other party would not attack head-on, so there was no need to be afraid. He said to Zhan Dapeng,
"There's no figure. Did you see it clearly?”
Zhan Dapeng nodded and shook his head uncertainly,""Yes... I'm not sure…"
Jiang Xiaoyu smiled." You're too tired. Your eyes are blurry. Don't think too much. Come and get the firewood!"”
Jiang Xiaoyu definitely couldn't tell Zhan Dapeng the truth about Xiang Yu and this island now. She would wait until the right time.
Everyone piled the firewood to the seaside. As long as it was lit, everything would be fine!
When the firewood was set up, everyone suddenly realized a problem.
"What do you want? We're not popular either."
"Haha, watch me!" A recruit beside him laughed.”
As he spoke, he found a stone under a tree and took out a small knife from his pocket. He used the knife to cut the stone in an attempt to create sparks and light the firewood.
However, after a long time, there was no movement at all.
"Stop knocking. With just these little sparks of yours, you won't be able to light it even if your arms and neck break!”
The man's face turned slightly red, but he did not give up. He kept hacking at the stone with his knife. Of course, it was useless.
Jiang Xiaoyu knew that he would come to this island one day, but he didn't know when it would be. Therefore, he didn't bring a lighter with him. He only brought a small knife with him, which didn't help with lighting a fire.
Just as everyone was worrying about how to start the fire, Jiang Xiaoyu suddenly saw the flashlight in Lu Yan's hand. Her eyes lit up and she asked everyone,
"Everyone, stop. I have an idea. Who has chewing gum on them?”
Everyone was speechless. At this time, why did you want gum?
"Jiang Xiaoyu, stop playing. Can chewing gum light a fire? Are you kidding me?"
"That's right! You still want to eat gum at a time like this?”
Jiang Xiaoyu was speechless, but he was too lazy to explain to them. He said directly,"I'm asking if you have it. If you have it, take it out. I need it!”
At this moment, Zhan Dapeng suddenly said weakly,"
"Brother Yu, I have some in my pocket, but we've been in the water for so long that the gum has long been soaked.”
As he spoke, he took out a piece of chewing gum from his shirt pocket. The wrapping paper had long been soaked.
Jiang Xiaoyu took the gum and said,""Who said I want to eat?"
As he said that, he threw away the outer wrapping paper, opened the tin foil inside, and threw away the chewing gum. The remaining tin foil was shaken dry before he said to Lu Yan, who was sitting beside him,
"Lu Yan, give me your flashlight."
"Why do you need a flashlight?" Lu Yan asked curiously.”
"Of course it's to light the fire. Whether or not it can be lit depends on it!”
