Chapter 83 The back injury and the boat on the beach
Mi Xueling said something, Zhao Ganyu was soft all over. He had long forgotten what the pain was: "It's okay, it's okay."
When Wu Zihao finally stood up, Mi Xueling held the ground and moved away from Zhao Ganyu's body. Her long hair floated over Zhao Ganyu's face. The soft touch made Zhao Ganyu feel itchy.
But after standing up, the pain from his back was still so real, and Zhao Ganyu was almost crying: "Wu Zihao, why are you standing well and your feet become weak?"
"Brother Gan Yu, it's all my fault. I didn't pay attention to walking. Don't blame Wu Zihao." Mi Xueling looked at them quarreling again and hurried forward to stop him, "Brother Gan Yu, are you okay?"
Wu Zihao also knew that it was his fault, so he kept his head shut and asked Zhao Ganyu to say a few words, bent down and picked up the cotton on the ground.
At this time, Zhao Ganyu's anger also subsided. After all, he was mainly worried that Mi Xueling fell on the firewood. Since she was fine, it would be fine: "It's okay, just take a rest. By the way, Wu Zihao, tell everyone about cotton."
As she was talking, Su Yueya came over and looked at Zhao Ganyu who was holding Mi Xueling, and her expression suddenly sank. But she quickly sorted out her emotions, turned around and entered the room.
The discovery of cotton really makes everyone excited.
"But why does cotton grow on the island?" Li Moxian tilted his head, "I'm going to grow cotton at home, which is 108,000 miles away from the sea."
"Maybe it's the characteristics of this island. There are too many things on this island that we don't know." Zhao Ganyu had to lean against the wall because he was injured and could not use force.
His words were agreed by everyone. Because of Zhao Ganyu's back injury, the construction of the house was delayed for two days, and the progress of farmland land reclamation was very ideal. In addition to the land that had been sorted out before, the stones had been thrown away, and different seeds were planted. Some seeds were already showing signs of germination, and Li Moxian wanted to sleep with the seed every day.
When she had the most headache, she had to follow her, but the foolish bird often pecked at the seeds and seedlings, which made Li Moxian feel very distressed.
That large cotton field was mainly picked by Mi Xueling and Su Yueya. Picking cotton didn't seem to be a big effort, but in practice, I found it a lot of trouble.
This is wild cotton, which grows thick and can easily be scratched and cut when picking it. The hands that pick the cotton quickly cracked the sores of all sizes.
The picked cotton was filled with behind-the-scenes wafting everywhere, causing Michelle, who was already feeling uncomfortable in his throat to cough continuously.
The size of the cotton field exceeded expectations, so Mi Xueling and Su Yueya picked it for three days but there was no place to store the cotton picked, so the project was suspended.
"Then why do we turn cotton into threads?" Michelle's dormitory next to her is a professional textile, but she has never seen the initial steps. She only knows about the distance between weaving and some simple dyeing principles.
The few people who were happy for several days were a little confused in an instant. Everyone knows that cotton can be made into cotton thread and cotton cloth, and they also know that they need to spin thread. But no one has actually done it.
Everyone was a little embarrassed when they looked at the piles of cotton.
"Why don't you sort out the cotton first? There are some dry leaves and branches on it, and the black ones are cotton seeds. They need to be removed. If they are clean, they really can't work. We can use it as cotton wool first." Michelle smiled and stood up to cheer everyone up, "It's better to have it than not."
"It's right..." Su Yueya frowned, looking absent-minded, "Weaving cloth...well..."
"Oh no, oh no!" Suddenly Wu Zihao rushed in.
Today it was his turn to go to the beach to observe the situation, hoping that the traces of fires and SOS on the white beach would attract passing boats. So every day, someone would go to the white beach to check the situation, and catch some seafood and pick some coconuts.
Wu Zihao rushed in and made everyone very nervous: "What's wrong! Just slow down and talk about it!"
Wu Zihao gasped, carrying the net bag down the mountain without carrying anything. It seemed that he ran back in a wild manner: "White, there are some people on the white beach!"
"Someone!" Everyone's eyes lit up, "Are we going to be saved? Is someone here to save us? It's so good, we're finally going to be saved!"
Seeing that everyone was so happy, Wu Zihao waved his hand: "No, no, there are only people."
The atmosphere became cold in an instant: "Wu Zihao, please make it clear quickly."
Wu Zihao calmed down, took a deep breath, and explained as clearly as possible: "I just went to Baisha Beach and picked a coconut, and I found that there was a small wooden boat on the Baisha Beach, only a little big. I thought it was an empty canoe floating in, and wanted to see if it could be used. As a result, as soon as I approached, I found that there were actually people on the boat!"
"It's still two people!" Wu Zihao added, "Two girls!"
Everyone else was confused: "Ah?!"
Wu Zihao hurriedly pulled Zhao Qianyu and wanted to leave: "Hurry, Brother Zhao, come with me to see the situation. I can't explain it clearly." Zhao Qianyu's back was almost as good as it was, but it could still move up and down the mountain. After hearing what Wu Zihao said, he really wanted to go and see it by himself.
"Then I'll go with you to see. But if there are two girls, is it not good to have only two men?" Zhao Qianyu was calmer than Wu Zihao and more careful than Wu Zihao. "Why don't Mi Xueling go with us."
Su Yueya is too fierce, and it will be bad if she scares others away. Li Moxian has to take care of the vegetables she planted again and cannot leave the broken house.
Mi Xueling nodded, put the dagger for self-defense, and brought tamsui and some food, "Let's go."
Li Moxian had no objection. Meat bones kept trying to follow, but Su Yueya kept it: "Meat bones should be left here. If there is a wild beast, it can be considered multiple protections."
Zhao Qianyu felt that what she said was reasonable, so he touched the head of Bones: "You can take care of my house on my behalf and protect them well."
The flesh and bones are extremely spiritual. When Zhao Qianyu said this, it quickly ran to the door of the broken house, turned around and lay down, but its ears were still standing high, listening to the movements around at any time.
Zhao Qianyu, Wu Zihao and Mi Xueling went down the mountain together.
When he was about to reach the Baisha Beach, Zhao Qianyu saw the ship Wu Zihao mentioned. It seemed that it was pushed to the shore by waves. The ship was indeed not big, so it made people wonder if there were really two people inside.
The canoe-sized boat doesn't look quite solid, but it looks more like a bamboo raft with a pointed end at the two ends.
Wu Zihao pointed excitedly: "Brother Zhao, look, it's that ship. I really only left for a while, and I don't know when it appeared."
