Chapter 125: Lake on the Island
When people pass by, they leave their voices behind and geese plucking their feathers. To be able to talk about scraping the ground so confidently is in line with the style of a flower grower.
What's wrong with the rabbits from my dignified flower-growing family? When they see the fertile land, their DNA is changed and they can't help but dig some and go back to plant. Isn't this unreasonable?
There are countless birds hovering above the long and narrow cigar-shaped island, and they are chattering lively.
Li Cang said as he walked,
"Look at those birds. Most of them are gathered on the east side of the island. It must be a 'bustling' area. The location where we hit is in the middle of the island. According to visual inspection, it is about three or four kilometers away."
Lao Wang held up the telescope and looked at it for a while, then shrugged and said,
"You can't see much, it's all lush and green."
Li Leisi said,
"With so many birds gathered here, it is almost certain that there is a large-scale water source on the island, but we still don't know what kind of area it belongs to, and if there are large beasts living there."
"Then we are in for a treat," Lao Wang shouted, "Fish, and fish, damn, I haven't seen a fish in two months. What does it look like? I passed by a fish stall before. It all stinks, now. Do you know that feeling?"
"I want to say that large beasts are much more dangerous than walking corpses," Li Lei rolled her eyes wildly, "Especially on such an isolated island with no access to the world or the ground."
Lao Wang chatted,
"What beast is more powerful than Miss Qiu and Brother Da Zhi? Besides, Brother is not a little white rabbit who can be slaughtered by others!"
"For example, a pack of wolves or hyenas?" Li Cang said. "If they are smart enough, they don't have to deal with Big Corpse Brother Miss Qiu. They only need to target us."
Lao Wang said helplessly,
"You two are too pessimistic. The chance of encountering something like that in China is definitely no more than the number of times a normal person goes to the zoo to see Gungun."
Li Cang picked up a brightly colored mushroom from the grass. There were many insects and flies on it and it was almost rotting.
"I was in Yanchuan when the disaster happened. You were traveling all over the world, separated by half of China. Think about how long it took you to get here at the same speed as a turtle. It may not be impossible for debris and floating islands to come from all over the world. Flowing here from all over.”
"Ah, okay, you guys have the final say." Lao Wang held out a finger to emphasize the point, "But let's agree in advance, this time I won't be a crow's mouth!"
Very good, very strong-minded.
Li Cang said,
"This island has a good environment and can grow mushrooms, although they are poisonous mushrooms."
Li Leisi was also very happy,
"While walking these few steps, I saw several mouse holes, which may be made by big-eyed thieves."
The three people have bright eyes.
When they were young, they used to carry buckets and fill holes to catch big-eyed thieves. After the stuff is baked, no one can bear to resist the smell.
A few kilometers further east, the terrain suddenly becomes lower, forming a basin terrain on this isolated island.
What caught everyone's eyes was a small lake surrounded by lush forests.
The lake is drop-shaped, with a length and width of at least 4 to 5 kilometers. The most surprising thing is that the rear end of its narrow drop-shaped lake is actually a stream wetland formed by countless gurgling springs.
Lao Wang put down his telescope.
"Teacher Cang, don't tell me, you happen to have research on how large an area of land can be to sustain an independent ecological cycle."
Li Cang said angrily,
"I'm going to study a hammer!!"
Li Lei Si took the telescope,
"Over there, that side of the lake is very close to the edge of the island, only one or two hundred meters away. If we can go around there after leaving this empty island, we can get water with a pump. The pipe should be long enough."
Li Cang is not very optimistic.
"Although there is a period of buffering before entering the derailment sanctions, it should not be enough time for us to get around there, let alone pump water."
Li Leisi took out her "island" from her pocket and turned it up and down in her palm.
"oh?"
Li Cang immediately bowed and apologized.
"Please, Ms. Li, you will be Lao Wang and I's reborn parents."
"Then let me call you mom?"
"Mom," Lao Wang shouted, "Mom, mom, I want to eat Nana~"
Bang.
The forest trees grew in a complete circle around the lake. They were all very tall trees. The only ones that a few people could recognize were pine, camphor, fir, willow and poplar. The rest had not been seen at all. The forest belt was the narrowest. It is only a hundred meters away, but once you enter, you will find that there are many wild animals here.
Squirrels, rabbits, foxes and other small animals would come out of the grassland bushes from time to time. I don't know if they were frightened or not, but Li Cang and others, who were surrounded by grass and trees, always made a noise.
Occasionally, big cat footprints can be seen on the moist mud not covered by fallen leaves, and a few of them are barely smaller than an adult's hand.
Lao Wang exclaimed,
"Lion, lion, lion?"
Li Cang and Li Leisi looked at him like an idiot.
"Uh, isn't it?"
"Please read more books," Li Cang said. "Except for a few areas in India, lions are basically a specialty of Africa. Look at this grass and this tree. Do they grow in tropical areas?"
Lao Wang said seriously,
"Isn't there a zoo? What if someone escapes from the zoo?"
Through the forest belt, the sparkling lake appears behind a narrow gravel beach.
Small waves washed over the lake shore in the breeze, and the moist and fresh water vapor suddenly made everything feel a bit lazy.
The three of them looked happy, and Lao Wang even shouted,
"Damn, I want to take a bath, I want to eat fish, Wuhu~"
This guy's howl startled a flock of birds, including wild ducks, pigeons, and even a strange-looking vulture.
Not far from the lake shore, several reindeer with big horns on their heads stared in the direction of the people in surprise. It seemed that they had not yet drunk the water and were reluctant to run away immediately.
"reindeer?"
Li Laisi frowned,
"Be careful, you might actually find a wolf."
"Um"
The location they came down from was not a good one, as they looked right into the deep water.
Li Cang roughly observed it and said,
"Go over there, our net is too crude and needs to be in shallow water to be effective."
Regardless of anything else, Li Cang was going to get a batch of fish to satisfy his appetite and enrich the biological species of the pond.
Shallow water, of course, refers to the "tail" of the lake, that wetland area with springs and streams.
After walking along the twisted lakeshore for a while, the three of them suddenly appeared in front of them, a clever wooden house in the forest hidden by tall trees.
There is a long wooden boardwalk on the left side of the wooden house, extending more than ten meters into the lake, and on the right side is the criss-crossing small streams formed by the spring.
The smile on Old Wang Li Cang's face suddenly disappeared——
I don't know since when, the two of them had the same idea, that is, meeting survivors is much more troublesome than meeting walking corpses.
"Is there anyone?"
"It doesn't look like it. It seems to have been abandoned."
"oh"
