Back to Volcano Island Camp

Several people took out the things they carried with them!

Harpoons, daggers, bows and arrows, ropes, lunch boxes and some personal items from their backpacks.

As for food, there were two slices of fish, a plastic box of shrimp dumplings, four bottles of fresh water, a bunch of bananas and a few banana fingers.

There was more than enough food and drink to get through tonight

It was just a little stuffy. The three girls kept wiping off sweat!

At this time, saltpeter was on the boat.

Even if it was brought back, precious fresh water could not be wasted to cool off!

Use seawater?

The concentration of saltpeter would be diluted by sodium chloride.

Lu Zhe looked through the survival manual to see if there was another way to cool off.

The result was seen at once.

"Too hot, huh? I have a good way!"

When they heard Lu Zhe say he had a good way, the eyes of the three girls lit up.

"I knew that with Lu Zhe there must be a good idea!"

"What's the trick, Lu Zhe?"

"You guys wait a minute for me!" With that, Lu Zhe jumped straight down from the tree.

More than ten minutes later, he came back.

"Where did you go?"

"Did you go find saltpeter?"

"No!"

Lu Zhe said as he took off his backpack, and pulled out a handful of snakes from his pack like pulling noodles!

That's right, a handful of snakes!

All three girls were stunned.

"Lu Zhe, what are you going to do?"

"Don't worry, these are all snakes I carefully selected, very docile and docile."

"These are poisonous snakes!"

"Don't worry, I pulled out the fangs of these poisonous snakes, there's no danger." As he spoke, Lu Zhe very rudely pried open its mouth, and saw the bloody gums empty inside.

The most prided weapon of the cobra had been confiscated by Lu Zhe, so now it was not much different from a non-venomous snake.

Tang Xiaoguo frowned and said, "I kept the stronghold for so long without letting a snake crawl up, but your snakes easily breached it!"

Jiang Yao said, "Fruit should be the one with the right to say that!"

"Weren't you wiping off sweat just now?!"

"Hmm!"

Ning Shu said, "Okay, stop wasting time on trivial matters, listen to what Lu Zhe has to say?"

Lu Zhe thought for a while and continued, "Snakes themselves are cold-blooded, our neighbors to the southwest will put snakes on themselves during the hot summer, which cools them down and massages them at the same time!"

"Ah, Lu Zhe, you're not really going to use this freakish idea, are you?"

"Of course, it can cool you down a lot!"

With that, Lu Zhe tied a snake around his neck: "It's really cool! My beauties, do you want snake therapy too?"

All three girls said in unison, "No!!"

"Then I'll be the only one cooling off!"

"We're not the least bit curious or looking forward to this kind of cooling method."

After a while, Lu Zhe felt much cooler.

He ate some food and began to consider signaling Shen Bing and Qian Qian to let them know he was still alive!

Now, going to the beach full of jellyfish to send Morse code was obviously unrealistic.

Was there another way?

Lu Zhe thought for a while and came up with a method!

"You'll have to wait for me again, I have to go back to the raft for a bit!"

"What are you going to do again, Lu Zhe?"

"It's so dangerous there!"

"While there is some risk involved, it's worth taking the risk to let Sister Bing and Qian Qian know we're okay! While I'm gone, tie the ropes between the forks in the trees to make simple beds, and just wait for me to come back."

"Got it, be careful Lu Zhe!"

"Hmm!"

Lu Zhe jumped down from the tree a second time, then headed straight for the bamboo raft.

After clearing out a batch of snakes earlier, even more had crawled back on.

Lu Zhe understood now.

Their target was the mutton in the package.

He opened another package, looking for matches.

Because it had been so long since they were replaced, the matches in the bamboo tube had already burned out.

But it didn't matter, the Easy Knock fire lighter was still there.

There was also nitrate and sulfur, as well as the charcoal ash used to drive away sharks.

Lu Zhe took this package of stuff back to the evergreen oak.

In the meantime, he got bit by a snake once!

However, the snake's fangs simply couldn't pierce his skin, so there was naturally no worry about snake venom either.

Killing a snake!

Skin it, then mix the charcoal ash, nitrate and sulfur in proportion, put it in a snakeskin bag, then tie it to the arrow....

Ten minutes later, a burst of fire rushed into the night sky, flickering brightly in the dark sky.

On the other side of the small island, the two female lookouts suddenly hugged each other and cried with joy!

August 22, the 74th day stranded on a desert island, Monday!

Lu Zhe was still thinking about how to get back.

Gradually, he noticed some situations!

First of all, as he had expected, the snakes' activity behavior greatly decreased after sunrise.

Seabirds appeared, followed by a large number of hawksbill turtles crawling up the beach with the waves.

The high temperatures did not limit the movement of these turtles.

They looked cute and clumsy, moving awkwardly and slowly, easily reminding people of old men walking with canes.

But these seemingly harmless sea turtles recklessly devoured the jellyfish.

Their enamel-like skin was indifferent to the venomous stingers on the jellyfish's tentacles.

All things in the world counteract each other, which is amazing!

After the sun had completely risen, the jellyfish were also eaten up, these sea turtles, satiated, slowly crawled back towards the ocean, disappearing into the vast seas.

By this time, large numbers of snakes had disappeared without a trace.

The island seemed to have regained its tranquility like the day before.

But Lu Zhe now understood that, most likely in the center of the island, just overturning any random rock, there could be dozens or hundreds of snakes coiled inside.

"We can go back now!"

Lu Zhe nodded, "When you get on the raft later be sure to be careful, there may still be snakes hiding in the cracks that could bite you!"

Jiang Yao and Fruit nodded, "We know!"

The crew checked the raft and packages, and indeed found two snakes.

Throwing them far away!

"Okay, finally we can go home!"

There was plenty of fresh water and food on the bamboo raft. Lu Zhe pushed the raft out to sea, then jumped on himself.

This time, there was no need to hoist the sail or row!

Just drifting along the North Equatorial Current would allow them to drift back to Volcano Island.

But in order to see Sister Bing and Qian Qian sooner, Lu Zhe still tried his best to paddle.

Finally, before noon, they successfully arrived at Volcano Island.

They should have been welcomed by Sister Bing and Qian Qian!

But no one was there!

The camp was a mess.

The two girls were nowhere to be found.

Lu Zhe's heart sank,

"What's the situation?"

"Something attacked the camp while I was gone! Sister Bing and Qian Qian... I hope nothing happened to them!"

Just as he was worried, he heard Sister Bing shout from the tree house!

"Lu Zhe, watch out for the crocodile!"

As she spoke, a huge crocodile suddenly rushed out of the corner, mouth wide open, charging at Lu Zhe at 5 meters per second!

Lu Zhe was shocked and immediately shielded Ning Shu!

Then, with lightning speed, he pulled out a burning torch from the bonfire and stuffed it into the crocodile's mouth.
