Everyone took a sip of fresh water to temporarily replenish some fluids.
What about the other supplies?
The iron skewer was stuck in the Big King Octopus’s eye. Currently in hand there was a paratrooper knife, tongs, wedges, chisels, aluminum lunch boxes, already empty military water canteens, as well as a pistol with 20 bullets.
There was also the original clay pot for charcoal fire, a jar of pickled eggs, a condom, rope, and a bag of plastic bags and bottles.
Then there were the clothes on the body.
That was it.
Although compared to when first stranded on a deserted island, the quality and quantity of supplies had significantly improved, in terms of environmental danger it was even more perilous!
Back then was on land, but now, it was in the boundless wide ocean.
It was simply not a human domain.
High temperatures, scorching heat, lack of water, plus the helpless feeling of being unable to contact companions back at the camp...
However, there were some unexpected things!
Lu Zhe remembered that when encountering this kind of situation, three girls would definitely despair and wail loudly!
But now, although they felt some resentment and sadness, they were much calmer than before.
Actually, what they were thinking was...
Being together with Lu Zhe, they would eventually turn peril into security right?
"Lu Zhe, which direction should we row towards!"
Lu Zhe calmly pondered for a few seconds, then said: "Let's not hurry to paddle for now without a destination, try to reduce strenuous activity as much as possible, and preserve strength and body fluids!"
Tang Xiaoguo said: "That is to say... just wait idly?"
"Of course not, everyone needs to be vigilant, observe the distance, find the nearest island to land on, then build a boat again, and at the right time, return to the volcanic island and regroup with companions!"
"Lu Zhe, do you know which direction?"
Lu Zhe shook the Green Water Ghost on his wrist: "With a watch with hands and the sun, it’s easy to determine direction!"
As he spoke, Lu Zhe held out his wrist horizontally: "Point the hour hand towards the direction sunlight is coming from, the bisector of the acute angle between the hour hand and 12 o’clock points exactly north. If you are in the southern hemisphere, it points exactly south."
Tang Xiaoguo skeptically asked: "What if you don't know if you're in the southern or northern hemisphere?"
Lu Zhe nodded: "If you don’t know that, then don’t bother trying to survive. Just rationally choose a comfortable way to die, that’s more direct."
"I know we're in the northern hemisphere! I'm saying what if you don't know, how would you determine?"
Lu Zhe shook a bottle: "The simplest way, fill it with water, don’t put on the lid, drill a hole in the bottom. What would happen?"
"It would flow out!"
Jiang Yao supplemented: "It would spiral down right?"
"Correct! If in the northern hemisphere, it spirals counterclockwise. If in the southern hemisphere, it spirals clockwise!"
"Clever!"
"That’s knowledge reserve, nothing to do with being clever!"
As Lu Zhe spoke, he took off his shirt and shorts: "Qianqian stay vigilant and keep searching around. I’ll dive and see if I can catch a couple fish!"
"We're not hungry, just a bit thirsty. Don't take risks catching fish Gege!"
"Fish blood and eyes can replenish body fluids, although disgusting, it ensures we won't just die like this!"
"You can drink fish blood?"
"Ask Yao Yao, she’s experienced it!"
"Yao Yao, what’s the taste like?"
Jiang Yao sighed: "The taste... to be honest, I’d rather drink Qianqian’s bottle..."
Lin Qianqian blushed, feeling shy yet happy.
In the middle of speaking, Lu Zhe had already dived into the water!
He first tried diving to the seabed, attempting to find some shellfish and molluscs, but failed!
He couldn’t reach the seabed at all.
The average ocean depth is 3700 meters. Lu Zhe’s limit was 100 meters. Striving further down, he only felt dark and suffocating, prone to claustrophobia.
Next, he tried catching flying fish, but they swam too fast. Although Lu Zhe was agile, after all he wasn’t a marine creature. After half a day of catching attempts he didn’t get a single one.
Somewhat embarrassed!
Just then, a big guy pouted its lips happily swimming in front of Lu Zhe.
It looked very strange, unable to distinguish between its face and body. No tail, upper and lower fins fluttered like wings, seemingly nodding a greeting to Lu Zhe.
Lu Zhe swam over and touched its body, the information “sunfish” appeared in his mind!
Could this be the fabled sea self-service shop?
Lu Zhe was delighted!
Wear a yellow raincoat and you’d be the most handsome courier!
He pulled out the paratrooper knife and cut into the sunfish’s back...
The skin was quite thick!
But Lu Zhe still precisely cut out a piece of meat. During the entire cutting process the sunfish showed no sign of struggle, seemingly even enjoying it a bit.
The meat was slippery and oily, seemingly not very tasty!
Then, Lu Zhe brought up a piece of fish meat.
The few girls were all extremely surprised!
"Wow, there’s pre-cut meat in the sea too?"
"Awesome right! This is the meat I cut off a sunfish."
"Didn’t it struggle?"
"Not at all! I thought it being dumb was exaggerated, but turns out it’s true. If I had cut slower, it might have wanted to befriend me."
Tang Xiaoguo looked it over: "This translucent meat should be quite delicious right?"
"You’re wrong."
Lu Zhe shook his head: "Coastal residents don’t even eat it. Not only unpalatable, but parasite-ridden too!!"
"Why’d you bring it up then?"
"Hmm..."
After thinking hard for half a day, Lu Zhe actually reached this conclusion: "Don’t know."
Things turned a bit awkward, but the considerate Jiang Yao said: "Why not use it to fish! If its meat isn’t good, doesn’t mean other fish meat isn’t good too!"
"Great idea! But there are no fishhooks!"
Lu Zhe pondered briefly: "Bamboo sticks and thin rope can make fishhooks, but do we have something more convenient?"
"What is it?"
Lu Zhe smiled and lifted Jiang Yao’s clothes, the metal hooks hanging off the bra clasp behind.
"Lu Zhe, what are you doing?"
Lu Zhe took one off, used the paratrooper knife to cut off the curved end, then hammered it flat with the claw hammer. A simple small fishhook was made!
He stripped rope for fishing line, Qianqian took the zipper pull off her clothes for sinker weight, then pulled out a small bamboo rod. A simple set of fishing tackle was created.
Lu Zhe cut a strip of sunfish meat, bouncy like a worm, and threaded it on the fishhook.
Ten minutes later, the first flying fish was successfully caught!
"Much harder than fishing in the sea pit!"
"So difficult!"
Lu Zhe used clothes to pound the fish for its blood. This one fish squeezed out around 30ml of blood, equivalent to one mouthful.
But having this meant they now possessed the fundamentals to survive at sea!
In half an hour, Jiang Yao caught four flying fish with the fishing rod.
The few finished drinking the last half bottle of fresh water, now facing the world’s most difficult either-or decision!
One cup was fish blood, one cup was Qianqian’s body fluid. If you were them, which cup would you choose?
nd fell into a coma while saving his younger sister from an out-of-control car. He became a vegetable. No one knew that his consciousness had crossed into a world of cultivation. Over the course of sixty years, he began as the lowest kind of mine slave, struggling to survive amid mountains of corpses and seas of blood. By sheer chance, he eventually obtained the complete memories of a fallen Immortal King. Alchemy, medicine, formations, feng shui, physiognomy, artifact forging… Every great inheritance of the cultivation world was now his. But when he opened his eyes again, he discovered that ten full years had passed in the modern world. To pay for his treatment, his father had sold the family’s shop and house, leaving himself covered in lasting injuries and illness. His mother had cared for him day and night, and more than half of her hair had already turned white. His younger sister, who had been only fifteen back then, was now twenty-five. To help repay the family’s debts, she had been forced to lower her head and put on a smiling face in places of glittering lights and endless revelry. Only then did Chen Xuan understand that what he had lost was not merely ten years. He had lost the life his entire family was meant to have. The good news was that he had brought back the memories of an Immortal King’s entire lifetime. The bad news was that his soul had returned alone—his cultivation had not come with him. Spiritual energy was scarce, resources were depleted, and the modern world still had firearms, surveillance, capital, and laws. If he wanted to protect his family, break free from everyone’s control, and become truly invincible beneath the heavens, he would have to start all over again.
