Endless Rebirth

Can you live a good life on a desert island?

Li Shixun didn't speak, feeling a little irritable for no reason.

Kawashima's words are undoubtedly a bit discouraging at this time.It was obvious that she didn't want to go back, or that she never thought that anyone would come to rescue her.Just like what she said, after everyone was separated on the sea, and after a night of wandering, no one knew where they were at this time.

To talk about having a good life on the island is to prepare to adapt or force yourself to accept the current reality.Li Shixun thought thoughtfully, I'm afraid that woman is also tired of living in the dark, and maybe living on a desert island forever is the best end for her.

But, what about yourself?Li Shixun closed his eyes gently, and his mind was filled with figures, including Xu Yun's, Xika's, Ouyang Jing's, Ling Ruoshui's, and Shu Jing... Even the shadow of Song Zhien appeared.

Before, he said it easily, but at this moment, he still couldn't let go.

Unlike Kawashima, he has a lot of worries in his heart.Personal feelings, family ties, loyalty to friends, and national justice... His life has just begun, and it was wonderful. It would be very disappointing and regrettable for it to end suddenly like this.

He is not a stoic person. Not only does he have no clothes to cover his body and no place to live on the island, it is also so desolate. How can he compare with the outside world?

and so……

"I believe someone will come to save us," he said calmly, "but before we are rescued, we really need to ensure our own safety and live well."

"Then, can you untie me? It's been so long, and it's so painful." Kawashima said pitifully.

"Promise me. We will live in peace from now on, and I will loosen your bonds." Li Shixun didn't even look at her.

"With your skills, are you still slapping me to cause trouble?" Kawashima said with a half-smile.

"I just don't want to waste time on boring things." Li Shixun said.

"Well, you are really boring." Kawashima said with a flat mouth.Something boring?This guy is really annoying.She groaned inwardly.

After the rope was untied, Kawashima stood up relaxedly and made a few movements to soothe his body. His slender figure stretched to his heart's content in the firelight, and his soft curves made people feel the urge to have a kiss.Li Shixun turned a blind eye.After throwing the clothes on the wooden shelf, he climbed onto the straw bed.

He put on his clothes with some joy, Kawashima looked at him with an unclear meaning, turned around and sat by the fire to keep warm.She was wearing nothing but a lace shirt and a pair of purple trousers, but she was already satisfied.After all, it's much better than before.

Her eyes lingered on Li Shixun's white fluffy coat for a while, then she glanced at Li Shixun, who was breathing steadily, and suddenly stood up and walked outside.

The petite figure gradually disappeared into the pit, and Li Shixun did not stop him. He calmly turned over and lay on his side, closed his eyes and fell asleep.Early the next morning.There was an extra bed of hay in the pit.

"What are we going to do now?" Kawashima asked after having a fruit breakfast, looking at him.

"Collect food and fresh water, and then..." Li Shixun looked up at the top of the pit and said: "We also need to repair the roof. Fortunately, the wind was not strong last night, otherwise we would not have died of cold or frostbite. It needs to be repaired firmly, for after."

"Then let's split up. I'll find something to eat while you build the roof." After Kawashima finished speaking, he saw Li Shixun looking at him and said with an unchanged expression: "What? You don't believe me?"

"It's not that I don't believe it, it's just that... forget it!" Li Shixun said: "You can go as long as you want, and pay attention to your safety. I took a walk yesterday and was..."

Li Shixun briefly described the topography of the island, and then said: "Just look for it in the valley. Don't go to the mountains. Firstly, you are afraid of danger, and secondly, it is easy to consume physical strength."

"I know, don't worry." Thinking that she was also a black cherry blossom with extraordinary skills, she felt that she was underestimated by Li Shixun. "Without further ado, I'll leave before the sun rises!"

"Wait, take this!" Li Shixun stopped her and handed the dagger over.

Kawashima didn't answer, but looked at him strangely and said, "Give it to me, what do you use it for? Besides, aren't you afraid that I will do something to you?"

"I have my own way," Li Shixun glanced at her lightly and said, "You are no match for me, why should I be afraid?"

Kawashima felt so angry at his words that he took the dagger, buried his head and left.

Li Shixun smiled calmly and followed behind.In the opposite direction to Kawashima, he did not rush to the forest. Instead, he came to the beach, his eyes constantly patrolling the white beach, as if he was looking for something.

After going back and forth for almost a quarter of an hour, suddenly, his eyes lit up and he found what he wanted.He quickly stepped forward and picked up a stone near the woods.The stone was about the size of a palm, with one side rounded and the other side sharp edges. He tested it with his fingers and nodded with satisfaction.Taking the stone, he went into the woods.

Not long after, the sound of 'bang bang' came from inside, and then the sound of branches breaking.When the sun in the east shines brightly and shines golden sunlight on the sea, Li Shixun comes out carrying a bundle of branches with leaves.

After tearing apart all the bamboos that had fallen over the pit, he found a tree that had been blown down by the wind and was thicker than a human waist. He did not remove the branches and leaves, but used all his strength to put it down bit by bit. Above the pit.This is considered the main beam of the pit. With it above the head, this residence makes people feel at ease.

Li Shixun was busy all morning.He cut the grass and made straw ropes, cut branches and tied them with straw ropes to make tiles for the house. In order to prevent rain from leaking, he also got a lot of banana leaves and made two or three layers of the roof to ensure that there was no leakage before it was completed.

And because he was lighting a fire inside, he considered the ventilation requirements and made a vent on one side of the pit.At the same time, I got a few big rocks and put them in the pit, barely made a stove, and then got hay and firewood to light the fire.I experimented with the vents and it worked fine.

As time passed, the roof was finally done.The gabled roof is made entirely of trees, a bit like thatched roofs in rural areas. Because of the main beams, the roof is very strong and will not be easily blown over by the wind.

All this is not easy. On a deserted island, without tools or helpers, Li Shixun was able to do it bit by bit alone.Not to mention anything else, just touching those trees would be embarrassing enough. If it had been anyone else, their hands would have bled and they would have collapsed from exhaustion.

Li Shixun only sweated a little and panted a little under the cruel sunshine.

When Kawashima came out of the woods with food, Li Shixun was building a simple toilet at the downwind of the pit.Things in life include eating, drinking, and defecating. Although the conditions were harsh, he still wanted to be more comfortable, at least so that the future life would not be so sad.

"The harvest is good!" Hearing the noise, he turned his head and raised his eyebrows when he saw Kawashima's hand full of things.

"Fortunately, there are more species inside than expected." Putting down the things, she walked over with a bamboo tube and said: "Drink some water, mountain spring water, I have tasted it, it's not bad."

After glancing at her, Li Shixun didn't shy away from it, took off the lid, raised his head and drank.

I was really thirsty. Although there were many trees on the island, which blocked the sky and the sun, the pit was located on a very high ground, and there were very few trees nearby. Coupled with the constant fatigue, the water in the body was lost quickly.Therefore, he didn't even have any doubts at all and let the sweet spring water flow into his stomach.

When Kawashima saw him like this, a hint of complexity flashed in his eyes, and he said nothing and turned around to prepare lunch.Her trip was not bad. Not only did she get meat such as pheasants and hares, but she also picked some bamboo shoots and wild vegetables. Together with the cassava and jackfruit she had not eaten yesterday, it was enough for two people for a day.

When Kawashima went to prepare food, Li Shixun went to the woods again, got a lot of bamboo, and made a fence for the toilet.After a little reinforcement, he carried the remaining bamboo into the pit.He planned to redecorate the bed. Sleeping on hay last night was really uncomfortable. Not to mention the mosquitoes, he still had back pain when he woke up in the morning and some skin allergies.

In the past, it was because of time that I was so casual, but now of course I have to organize it carefully.The bamboo he took was neither thick nor thin. He beat it hard with stones and broke the bamboo into boards.After getting four wooden stakes, he selected four thick bamboos and tied them firmly to the wooden stakes. Then he laid the bamboo pieces on them one by one.

He tried it first and it felt a little soft. After thinking about it, he added two more bamboos in the middle.After lying down and trying again, he was satisfied with connecting the bamboo pieces with straw ropes and tying them to the bamboo so that they would not loosen easily.

Making a bamboo bed requires patience, especially when weaving bamboo bed boards.Before he was even halfway through, Kawashima walked in with something still dripping with water.

Her eyelids raised slightly, she glanced at the bamboo bed half a foot above the ground, but said nothing.Silently walked to the fire and prepared lunch.

"Your feet..." Li Shixun didn't know when he raised his head and looked at her teacher.

Because of the previous shipwreck, the shoes had long since disappeared. There were now several blood stains on the white and tender feet. The tops of the feet scratched by trees looked a bit dazzling.There is a sharp contrast between the blood-red scars and the fair skin.She focused on the matter at hand and said without looking back: "It's okay, just a little bit..."

"Wear mine!" Li Shixun threw his shoes over and said.

"Then what should you do?" Kawashima then raised his head and looked at him.

"I have my own way." After Li Shixun said this, he continued to make the bed planks.

"Why do you want to……"

"Are you feeling better yet? I'm hungry!" Li Shixun's calm voice interrupted her.

After giving him a deep look, Kawashima said: "It will be fine soon!"
