[Quest Title: Find a New Camp]
Mission Introduction: Your camp seems to be unsafe. Hurry up and find a safer place for yourself!
[Mission Reward: System Points *50]
This mission reward was considered average, but it also strengthened Ye Qing's determination to move.
The system points were still very useful to him at the moment. He counted the time. The items in the mall were about to be updated. He wondered what would be refreshed next.
After discussing tomorrow's operation with Zhao Ling, the two of them gradually fell asleep.
The next morning, after eating breakfast prepared by Zhao Ling, the two of them brought a lot of food. Then, they filled a few coconut shells with fresh water and set off.
This time, their goal was to find another cave as a new place to live. After all, building a wooden house was still too difficult for them.
He had checked the nearby cliff before. Other than the cave he was in, the rest were not suitable for living. Moreover, the cliff was very small and not far from the bonfire. If there were really enemies, it would be easy to find them. It was better not to move.
Therefore, their decision this time was to explore the other side of the beach where Ye Qing had come ashore first. They wanted to see if they could find another cliff, which was better if it was far away from here. Then, they would make plans for the future.
After walking along the beach for an entire morning, they finally saw another cliff just as they were about to give up.
The overjoyed two immediately ran over, but the result was disappointing.
There were many caves on this cliff, but the terrain was relatively low. Many of the caves were extremely humid and even had accumulated water. It was imaginable that if one really lived there, they would definitely be submerged by the sea when the tide rose. It was not suitable for living at all.
After searching the entire cliff, there was not even a suitable cave to live in. This made people feel a little discouraged.
His stomach was already extremely hungry. Ye Qing waved his hand and let Zhao Ling stop to rest. Then, the two of them ate lunch and rested in a cave that was still somewhat dry after the low tide.
Zhao Ling said as she ate," Ye Qing, how big do you think this island is? It took us an entire morning to walk on a beach. How long would it take to find a suitable cave?"”
Ye Qing looked at her and realized that she had been rubbing her calf. Only then did he realize that this girl was a big star. Usually, she did not need to walk for an entire morning. Her leg was probably already in pain, but he did not hear her groan. She was really a girl with perseverance.
" Yes," he said." This island has far exceeded our expectations. If there's no suitable cave on this cliff, I'm afraid we'll have to continue living in our original place."”
Zhao Ling nodded." That's all we can do for now. It took us an entire morning to find this cliff. If we continue walking, we won't be able to return before dark. I've also checked the beach I was at before. Other than the cliff in the cave we're living in now, I didn't find any other cliffs. I reckon it's the same situation as here.”
"I'll think of a way. Let's rest for a while and go back quickly. Otherwise, it'll be troublesome when it gets dark.”Ye Qing frowned.
To be honest, he really didn't want to stay in the original cave anymore. It was too dangerous, but the truth was that there was no suitable place to live here. Besides the cliff, there wasn't even a decent tree around. Although the forest was dangerous, it couldn't be without firewood, right?
On the other hand, the place they were currently living in was not only constantly facing the threat of unknown enemies on the island, but it was also rich in various resources. In addition, the cave was located on a higher terrain, so it was not easy to be flooded by the tide. If there was really any danger, it was easy to defend but difficult to attack.
If there was really no other way, it was not impossible to continue staying.
It had to be said that there was no harm without comparison. Last night, Ye Qing felt that he couldn't stay there any longer. Now that he thought about it, compared to this place, that place was really not bad.
Of course, Ye Qing was definitely not someone who enjoyed life and disliked hard work. As long as there was a chance, he would not let his life be in a state of constant threat.
They still had to move, but it was obviously unrealistic to blindly look for caves. Just like today, it took them more than half a day to find this cliff. If they continued to walk, it would be difficult to return to the camp before dark. This was obviously not feasible.
As for the side where Zhao Ling went ashore, he had not been there yet, but he did not plan to go there again. Besides what Zhao Ling said," The situation should be similar to this side." Ye Qing had another layer of worry. The plane crashed there. If there were really people who survived, would they go in that direction?
Ye Qing didn't dare to gamble, nor did he want to.
After resting for a while, the two of them set off on their way back. This time, they did not need to pay attention to whether there were caves along the way. Their speed was much faster than when they came. When they returned to the cave, it was still early, about four in the afternoon.
After getting Zhao Ling to prepare dinner, Ye Qing checked the cliffs around the cave.
Although he had already checked it out before, he had mainly wanted to find a safe place for himself. He had left many caves after seeing that they were not suitable. He did not go in and check carefully.
This time, he entered every cave on the cliff to check if there were any traces of human habitation to ensure the safety of his surroundings.
When he returned to the cave at night, Zhao Ling had already prepared dinner and was waiting. The best time for the radio signal had passed. According to Zhao Ling, there was still no news from the outside world.
Ye Qing was already used to this. He even felt that his chances of being rescued were not high at all.
However, he didn't say this thought out loud because he didn't have any evidence. Saying it out loud would only cause Zhao Ling to panic.
After dinner, Ye Qing called Zhao Ling over to the bonfire. The two of them sat side by side and he said,""We can only stay here for the time being, but we can't be sure if the surroundings are safe, so we have to take turns to keep watch at night.”
Zhao Ling said," Of course not. This is also for our safety. You can arrange what to do."”
"Alright, from tonight onwards, you guard the first half of the night and I'll guard the second half of the night.”Ye Qing quickly made a decision.
The reason why he arranged for himself to be in the latter half of the night was mainly for Zhao Ling's sake. It was easy for ordinary people to stay up late in the first half of the night, but if they were woken up halfway, their mental state would be very bad.
Zhao Ling's lack of sleep was secondary. If any accidents happened because of her poor mental state, then the problem would be huge.
