As a result, the problem seemed much more serious.

Because on this isolated island, there is another group of people who are injured or even killed. We have no idea what this group of people is made of, nor do we know anything about their sex ratio, age, total number of people, or race.

Just like this, the four of us sat on the stone platform and discussed until it was dark. Xia Ran said that since Chen Mengyu's condition is pretty much cured now, then there's no need for the two of them to always stay in the cave and hide. The two of them can also help to find other survivors.

Our mission today is simple, and that is to expand the radius of search around Little Rock Mountain, and also to see if there are any traces of other survivors. Of course, we will also pick some wild fruits along the way.

When we were at the small mountain peak looking down from above, we had already roughly seen the terrain around Little Rock Mountain. Adding to the fact that I had also walked around the area before, I was now quite familiar with the environment around Little Rock Mountain. Basically, no matter where I was at, I would be able to pinpoint the direction of our cave.

This search was more than twice the radius I had when I was alone. Although there was still no sign of anyone else, we were able to figure out the detailed flow path of the stream.

This stream spans a very wide area, it seems to extend from the northernmost tip of our island all the way to the south, forming a pocket-shaped arc in the position of our Little Rock Mountain, and this stream even diverged a few strands while heading south, each heading in a different direction. However, we did not investigate further, because if we continued our investigation, we would have to cross over a large area of unknown territory, which we absolutely could not do without being fully prepared.

After that, Zhou Qiqi suggested that we go to the seaside again. On one hand, we wanted to see if there was anything "seafood" that we could eat by the seaside, and on the other hand, we wanted to make sure that our SOS marks didn't attract the attention of rescue team.

We quickly arrived at the seaside, and went to the place where Chen Mengyu and I landed first.

This time we found a new edible thing, the turtle egg.

It was June, and it was time for these turtles to lay their eggs.

Sea turtles would usually lay at night or at dawn, so Zhou Qiqi, the foodie, seemed to be quite knowledgeable about these things. When she reached the ocean shore, she immediately started searching all over the beach.

Just as I was about to ask her about her epilepsy, I saw Zhou Qiqi suddenly squatting down and digging a hole on the beach. Not long later, she came out with a few yellow-white eggs.

Zhou Qiqi told me about it before she realized that it was a Sea Turtle Egg. She said that this kind of egg was more delicious than eggs and had a higher nutritional value, so after hearing what Zhou Qiqi said, the rest of us also searched the beach and quickly found more "egg pits".

In this case, we really don't have to worry about food on this island. The security problems we face seem to be much more serious.

After collecting the eggs, we walked towards the SOS sign. It was the same as last time, there was even no one touching the seaweed that I had laid on top. I was a little disappointed, so I decided to carve a line on the stone.

Survivors, please light the fire at the seaside and raise the smoke. We will come to meet you as soon as we see you.

I had just carved the last word, and then two things happened at the same time.

The first was a helicopter flying over our heads, and the second was a thick column of smoke that really did appear on the distant horizon.

Of course, it's the helicopters that are more attractive to us.

The three girls, not caring if they were going to leave or not, took off their jackets and waved them in the air. The helicopter, however, seemed to have no intention of stopping.

F * ck.

We were all at a loss for what to do. This damn helicopter might as well not show up from the beginning.

In the end, it was Xia Ran who brought us back to reality. "Let's go! Let's go check out the smoke! "

I couldn't pinpoint the position of the smoke, I could only see the general direction, but I couldn't estimate the distance because the smoke column didn't have a reference point in the air.

I carried the bag of turtle eggs on my back and took the short-handled ax and dived into the forest. The other three girls also followed behind me.

Fortunately, all of them had decent stamina. Needless to say, Zhou Qiqi was a real man to begin with. Xia Ran was already half a public figure, and would frequently participate in various kinds of entertainment. She had long gotten used to this kind of "running errands". What comforted me the most was still Chen Mengyu. Now that I was sure that her illness had completely healed, she once again shone with that unshaven look she had on the school tennis court. She held onto her tree trunk and spear as she walked through the forest.

But then again, if they didn't have such a good physique, they wouldn't be alive right now. At the very least, they wouldn't be able to get past the accident on the cruise ship.

From the looks of it, I am the luckiest person alive. If not for some strange change in my body, I would have definitely died in the sea.

In our reverie, we were closer to the smoke, but we were still far from our destination. The place where I found the smoke coming from here was right past our cave, so I hid the turtle egg in the cave and continued to run toward the smoke.

This column of smoke was so thick that I didn't seem to have to worry about it disappearing. In the end, there were a few more tiny columns of smoke surrounding the column.

We walked briskly through the woods for more than 20 minutes, and then

The column of smoke was gone.

by

The disappearance of the column of smoke meant that we had to rely on our memories to find out what it was that had caught on fire.

However, after a few steps, I felt that I had changed my direction, so I hurriedly told the other three girls to stop, I first looked at the sun above the treetops to confirm the direction I was heading, then I started to mark the trees with rocks, otherwise we would have been in trouble if we didn't go back, after all the area we were exploring was far beyond the area around the Little Rock Mountain that I knew.

However, just as I finished the first mark, I heard a whoosh from the depths of the forest behind me.
