Chapter 22 Weird half-cooked fish

"What suspicions did you find?"

Liu Yun originally wanted to go to bed, but after hearing Zhao Qian's words, she frowned and asked.

"There is no trash on this island."

Zhao Qian expressed his doubts, but seeing that Liu Yun did not understand, he explained: "Human beings dump a large amount of domestic garbage into the sea every year, so even uninhabited islands will have human domestic garbage."

"But this island is different. I searched along the coastline for a long time. Except for the items on the plane, there is no domestic garbage. In theory, such an island should not appear."

In fact, Zhao Qian discovered this doubt two days ago, but he didn't pay attention to it at the time. It was the two doubts raised by Liu Yun that reminded him.

The reason why he mentioned this doubt was mainly to provide Liu Yun with more information and see if the other party could calculate their approximate location based on this information.

Of course, he won't do it.

But Liu Yun is a top student, so she might be able to figure it out based on conditions such as ocean currents.

“No domestic waste.”

Liu Yun frowned even more tightly, and after a while she said: "Your doubt is very important. I want to think about it. You must be very tired today, so go and rest first!"

Zhao Qian stood up, suddenly thought of something, and asked, "Are you keeping watch for Wang Qianqian again?"

Liu Yun didn't speak, just nodded.

When Zhao Qian saw this, he wanted to say something, but in the end he did not speak.

The next day...

Perhaps because he was too tired yesterday, the sun had risen very high before Zhao Qian woke up.

As a result, as soon as he opened his eyes, Wang Qianqian's voice rang in his ears, "You finally woke up. I thought you couldn't sleep anymore. It's getting late now, let's set off quickly."

"Why are you so positive today?"

Zhao Qian was in a daze, thinking that he heard wrongly, because Wang Qianqian was unwilling to follow him out yesterday.

"Aren't you worried about your death?"

After Wang Qianqian finished speaking, she felt that her words were suspected of caring about Zhao Qian, so she explained: "Liu Yun and I still need you to find food for us. If you die, we will have to find food ourselves."

Zhao Qian did not care about the authenticity of this sentence and said: "Thank you for your kindness, but from today on, you can't follow me."

Wang Qianqian asked: "Why can't I follow you?"

Zhao Qian said: "It is too dangerous to follow me. If you are not careful, you will die. It is safer for you to stay in the camp."

When he thought of what happened yesterday evening, he was glad that he did not take Wang Qianqian with him, otherwise Wang Qianqian would be dead when he encountered a herd of wild boars.

Because whether it's running away or climbing a tree, Wang Qianqian is not good at these things.

"Then I should go, so that the two of us can take care of each other." Wang Qianqian said without giving up.

If there is no care between the two of us, you will be a burden to me.

In the past, Zhao Qian would have said this on the spot, but now that Wang Qianqian was caring about him, he would not be able to say unpleasant words.

Ever since... he said with a smile: "Actually, I want you to follow me, but right now I have a very difficult task for you, and you really can't go with me."

Wang Qianqian asked: "What mission?"

Zhao Qian said: "I want you to weave more fishing tools so that we can catch more fish. We also have food reserves in case something happens."

Wang Qianqian said: "Your idea is good, but I can't weave fishing tools!"

Zhao Qian continued: "Weaving fishing tools is very simple. I will teach you when I come back at noon. You collect the materials first in the morning."

After saying that, he left quickly without giving Wang Qianqian a chance to speak.

Wang Qianqian looked at Zhao Qian leaving, stamped her feet angrily, and then went to collect materials for weaving fishing tools.



After Zhao Qian left the camp, he did not check the traps he had set, nor did he dig for blasting insects, nor did he check the fishing tools. Instead, he walked towards the lake.

He wanted to see how far the forest fire had burned and how much of the forest had been burned.

At the same time, he also had a lucky mentality and wanted to find burned animals from the burned forest to improve his food.

It would be best if all the wild boars were burned to death, and then they could be made into smoked meat, which would be enough for the three of them to eat for a long time.

However……

When Zhao Qian spent a lot of time revisiting the forest where the lake was located, he was shocked to find that the forest fire that he had imagined to be a disaster was actually extinguished.

Not only that, he also found that the area where the forest was burned was almost the same as when he left.

In other words, the forest fire was extinguished as soon as he left.

"How can this be?"

Zhao Qian had a look of disbelief on his face, unable to understand the fact that the forest fire was extinguished.

It must be understood that once a forest fire forms, it is impossible to extinguish it so easily. Take the Australian forest fire in 2019 as an example. It burned for a total of four months, killing nearly 200 people and as many as 3 billion animals.

.

Even with human intervention, the fire burned for four months.

However, now, forest fires without any human intervention only burn a very small area and then go out, which is really abnormal.

Of course, he didn't want the forest to catch fire, but this was all too weird.

After hesitating for a moment, Zhao Qian gathered up his courage and cautiously moved towards the burned area.

"The trees here just burned and were extinguished."

Zhao Qian came to the edge of the forest fire and found that the trees were only burned on the surface and there were no internal problems.

He broke open the skin of these trees, touched the inside, and said to himself: "These are normal trees, so the forest fires are extinguished and they have nothing to do with them."

Zhao Qian continued to walk deeper.

As he went deeper, the burning of the trees became more serious, and the tree he climbed yesterday to avoid the wild boar was completely burned.

After checking around for a while, he still couldn't find the reason why the forest fire was extinguished.

"Forget it, let's go back and don't run into those wild boars again."

Zhao Qian did not dare to continue the investigation, fearing that he would encounter those wild boars again.

But when he had just walked a few dozen meters, he suddenly saw something. He quickly walked forward, knelt down, and picked it up.

After wiping off the dust on the thing, the whole thing was revealed. It was a dead fish, half cooked, and the other half nothing happened.

"How can there be fish on the shore?" Zhao Qian frowned and said: "Judging from the condition of this fish, it should have been exposed to high temperature, otherwise it would be impossible for half of it to be cooked...the other half is not cooked, which means it has been exposed to high temperature.

At the same time, the forest fire was extinguished. Could it be that it rained?"

"But how is that possible? The camp is not too far from here. It's impossible for us to feel the rain here."
