Chapter 346 Waiting for Rescue

It was paved with palm leaves, and it was not suitable for everyone to sit on it even if it was wet.

So the two men who were busy building the tent took out several more tarps from those bags.

After being busy for a while, Wang Anan finally knew the names of these two people.

David and Cohen.

David is from the United States and Cohen is a Canadian, barely a neighbor.

After everyone got to the island, we went back and forth between the boat and the island twice.

Finally, the supplies needed for survival were brought over.

At this time, the sky became a little darker, and the floating rain gradually turned into strings of water drops, and they were changing from dots to lines.

"Everyone, come to the sheds! Although the wind is still very strong, at least you can get shelter from the rain."

Yes, there is not much that humans can do in such weather.

Brian arranged for people to build two fires in the shed.

Make a base with the stones you picked up to separate the burning material from the sand on the ground to allow air to enter.

Then put the iron rack that was transported on the ship before, and use an iron chain to hang a larger pot.

If two pots are full of food, everyone can still be half-full if each person eats a little less.

The fuel is diesel from the ship.

Of course, it's not all diesel. There is also some discarded wood. Although it is wet from the rain, it can still be burned with diesel.

There are also a lot of picked-up rotten wood placed around, and placing them next to the fire can also speed up their drying.

Wang Anan and Zhu Lin stuffed two large pieces of ginger into their backpacks when they got off the boat, which came in handy at this time.

"In our country, if you get caught in the rain or get cold, drinking a bowl of ginger tea can help you ward off the cold. We just happened to take some when we got off the ship. Boiling a little at this time can also prevent everyone from catching a cold."

After Wang Anan explained the functions of ginger tea and asked everyone's opinions, he decisively started the mode of making ginger tea.

"An, the water we brought from the boat may not be enough. Can rainwater be used for boiling?"

"of course."

In this uninhabited island in the Atlantic Ocean, there is no large amount of industrial pollution, and the rainwater is relatively clean. It is completely drinkable after being boiled.

Ben and Abigail quickly filled the pot with the rainwater.

It turns out that when we went to the island, the rain wasn't that heavy yet, so the outdoor water-catching equipment everyone put out didn't catch anything at all.

Until just now, the rain gradually became heavier, until it poured down, and the buckets and basins placed there were all filled up visibly to the naked eye.

Wang Anan gave Zhu Lin half a piece of ginger and pointed to another pot.

"Leave this side to me, and that side is yours. Let's fight quickly."

Although the backpack has been put down, wearing a plastic raincoat is still not that convenient.

The sound of "rustling, rustling" plastic friction echoed with Wang Anan's movements.

Without a cutting board, I could only cut the ginger into as small pieces as possible, but this was not a problem for Wang Anan, mainly because the ginger was large enough.

Probably because of the low temperature and the wind, this pot of water boiled very slowly. After waiting for a long time, I heard the gurgling sound as the water was about to boil.

Ginger tea is not made when the water is boiled. It needs to be cooked for a while to bring out more of the spiciness of the ginger for a better effect.

The others did not urge, but silently arranged what they had brought.

Wang Anan was not idle either and took out his big spoon and teapot.

A large spoon can be used to stir the ginger tea. Although I don't know what its use is, I always want to stir it up when making soups and water.

After the water boiled for a while, Wang Anan scooped a little soup into his teapot.

"Yeah! That's spicy enough!"

Without brown sugar, this ginger tea looks clear and watery, but in fact the ginger juice has been boiled out, and the spiciness is spread throughout the pot of soup.

"Okay, everyone, please bring your own cup and take some."

After hearing Wang Anan's words, everyone cooperated very well and took out the tools they used to eat, be it cups, bowls, or even lunch boxes.

Wang Anan distributed the cooked ginger soup to everyone one by one, and when he was done, he also filled a big bowl for himself.

"hiss!"

“It’s so spicy!”

"But it's warm!"

"Yes, my stomach is not that cold anymore!"

Even if you don't like spicy food, you didn't want to waste it at all and drank it all.

You know, in this situation, it is really rare to be able to drink something that warms the stomach.

The cold wind reminded everyone of the harsh weather all the time, and the rain that fell in became even colder with the blessing of the wind.

Nowadays, there is no way for everyone to go to a place without wind or rain. All they can do is to conserve their strength as much as possible and wait for rescue in the storm.

Probably because he had been busy since he got off the boat, Wang Anan didn't even have time to feel the sense of security that land brought to him.

It was only now, when I took off my raincoat and sat on the dry tarpaulin, and calmed down, that I suddenly realized that I was no longer on the boat.

Without the shaky feeling, it wouldn't be so nice.

996: "Don't be too complacent. After taking Xiaoyao Wan, your seasickness will double back on you after the time limit expires."

Wang Anan was also in the mood to talk nonsense at this time: "If you hadn't said this, we could still be friends!"

996 said seriously: "We can't be considered friends. We are a serious binding relationship between the host and the system."

Wang Anan: It’s better not to say anything.

……

"It's still very windy and rainy now. I guess we won't be able to wait for rescue today. We need to solve the problem of dinner and sleep at night by ourselves."

Brian and Grandpa Severson studied the situation above the sky and expressed their regret.

In fact, many people will be confused without knowing the reason. There is no rain or wind on the boat, and there is even a lot of food as support. Why not stay on the boat and wait for rescue?

There are indeed many benefits to staying on the boat, but the wind on the sea is too strong now, and the waves are constantly beating against the boat.

When the boat is not big, it is actually not safe to be on the boat.

It is even possible that the ship's hull will be punched with a big hole by the rocks brought by the waves.

No one wants to experience wind and waves at sea for a long time when there is stable land.

Especially in this case, the original fear of the sea will be infinitely amplified, and people without deep sea phobia may also become trapped at sea and develop a fear of the sea.

With so many people and a lot of supplies, going to the island is a good choice.

Even the island is not necessarily safe.

There wasn't much food for dinner, just the most convenient boiled pasta and a big dollop of tomato sauce.
