"Tang Ming, you’re amazing! You actually caught such a big fish. This is our food, isn’t it?"
Li Xiaoli squatted beside the big fish, her face full of excitent.
"Let’s eat this to fill our stomachs first, then I’ll see if I can get us so wild ga later."
Tang Ming explained as he approached the big fish.
"This fish looks big, but how are we supposed to eat it?"
Mu Zixin squatted next to Li Xiaoli, conflicted.
"We’ll eat it raw, of course."
Tang Ming squatted down, starting to process the big fish with a piece of tal.
"Eat it raw? Are you crazy?"
Mu Zixin looked at Tang Ming incredulously. "How can you eat raw stuff?"
"Sushi and sashimi are raw too, yet you eat plenty of those, don’t you?"
Tang Ming gave Mu Zixin a knowing look, sliced off a piece of fish, and started eating it in big bites. "Don’t worry, sea fish don’t have as many parasites as river fish, it’ll be fine."
"You’re really eating it!"
The two won watched Tang Ming in shock.
"Duh, what, should I just starve instead?"
Tang Ming shrugged, slicing two more pieces of fish. "It’s up to you whether you eat or go hungry."
"I’m hungry!"
Li Xiaoli rubbed her stomach, gulping hard. Then she gathered her courage and imitated Tang Ming, eating in big bites.
Mu Zixin looked disgusted at first, refusing to eat for anything. But she couldn’t stand the hunger and eventually joined in.
After eating and drinking their fill, the three lay side by side on the beach to rest, the large SOS written on the sand nearby waiting for rescue.
Each of them held a coconut juice, and what was originally a disaster now seed more like a trip.
"Tang Ming, do you think we’ll die here?"
Li Xiaoli sipped her coconut juice and asked Tang Ming lazily.
"We have food and drink, so how could we die? But, looking at things, if no one rescues us, we’ll be trapped here indefinitely."
Tang Ming replied helplessly.
"My family will definitely find ."
Mu Zixin declared resolutely.
"Heh, in this vast ocean, just one lonely island, it’s not that easy to find us."
Tang Ming sneered coldly. "If my cultivation were intact, I could have made a raft from so wood and perhaps found a way out. But now we don’t even know where we are. If we went out to sea and hit a storm, we’d definitely die. So we can only wait."
"Haha, with food and drink, I think it’s not too bad being trapped here."
Li Xiaoli suddenly sat up. "One man and two won, maybe the three of us can create a new society here."
"You..."
Tang Ming looked at Li Xiaoli in surprise and doubt. The old saying goes, a full belly leads to thoughts of pleasure, and Li Xiaoli’s figure and looks were top-notch, making Tang Ming feel a bit out of control.
"Tang Ming, you’ve been ignoring , but I knew I was wrong."
Li Xiaoli looked at Tang Ming pitifully. "About Feng Liubing, I just wanted to make you jealous. I didn’t think you’d get so mad. I’ve broken up with him, so don’t be angry with ."
"In a situation like this, why bring it up?"
Tang Ming shrugged.
"I want to make it clear to you. If not, I might as well give myself to you right now, co on, take ."
Li Xiaoli lay on the ground, spreading her legs open, posing invitingly.
"Don’t tempt ! I’m telling you, my willpower in this area is... nearly zero."
Tang Ming swallowed hard, feeling his body beco restless.
"Hey, are you two pretending I don’t exist?"
At that mont, Mu Zixin protested discontentedly. "Shaless! You don’t even know how you’ll survive, yet you’re thinking of doing indecent things. That’s horrible."
"Ahem, right, you’re terrible, tempting like this. I still need my strength to survive."
Tang Ming snapped back to reality and quickly stood. "I’m going to search for a place to stay tonight and make a simple shelter with this parachute. Co with ."
"Oh, you’re annoying, I’m being sincere!"
Li Xiaoli got up unhappily, clutching the parachute, glaring at Mu Zixin. "It’s all your fault, ruining my plans."
"Hmph, you two being sneaky, how can I bear it?"
Mu Zixin clicked her tongue, then followed Tang Ming, carrying her things.
Tang Ming used stones and tal pieces to make so simple tools, and the three of them found wood to construct a basic cabin by the lake with parachute fabric and ropes, temporarily settling down.
In the evening, Tang Ming brought back another fish, while Mu Zixin and Li Xiaoli found so crabs and oysters on the beach. But except for Tang Ming, the two won couldn’t eat anymore.
They tolerated the raw fish when starving, but now, having settled down, it was too hard to eat.
Reluctantly, Tang Ming had to think of another solution.
Mu Zixin and Li Xiaoli dressed, sitting on the beach in worry, while Tang Ming busied himself under the cabin.
"Tang Ming, I’m hungry again, what are you doing now?"
Li Xiaoli gazed at Tang Ming with pitiful eyes.
Tang Ming ignored Li Xiaoli, rubbing a dry stick over a strip of wood with gaps containing dry leaves.
"You’re not trying to make a fire by friction, are you?"
Mu Zixin looked at Tang Ming uncertainly.
"What else? It’s cold at sea at night, and since you won’t eat raw stuff, I have to find a way to make a fire."
Tang Ming responded helplessly, rubbing with effort.
"That’s a legendary skill, will it work?"
Li Xiaoli imdiately sidled up to Tang Ming.
"There’ll be no problem. Go gather more dry sticks quickly, I must succeed before dark."
Tang Ming continued his work, responding with determination.
The two won, albeit skeptical, obediently gathered sticks.
Tang Ming looked glum. If it were before, he could solve the fire issue with one Fla Palm, but now... he felt just like a primitive.
When the won returned, Tang Ming still hadn’t succeeded. Seeing his hands bleeding, they were worried, but Tang Ming never gave up.
No one knew how much ti passed, but night had fallen.
"Damn it!"
Tang Ming finally gave up, kicked the fire tools away, and pulled a lighter from his pocket to start a fire and grill the seafood.
"You have a lighter, why were you trying to make a fire?"
Li Xiaoli looked utterly confused.
"I forgot earlier..."
Tang Ming scratched his head. Without his cultivation, even his mory wasn’t as good.
The two won were speechless, but despite their annoyance, seeing the fire cheered them up. No more eating raw food.
That night, Tang Ming and the two won slept soundly, mainly because they were exhausted.
