   Chapter 232 One hundred and forty seven. Night falls

   Too tired and unsafe around him, even with the blessing of a warm windbreak, Lu Li couldn't sleep peacefully.

   Lu Li will wake up passively every once in a while, and then fall asleep again.

   It is difficult to get enough rest and good sleep, but the benefits are obvious.

  Lu Li doesn’t have to worry about the fire going out unattended for a long time, and the excess water being wasted when the jar at the water intake is full.

   Less than two hours later, Lu Li woke up for the fifth time.

  The time is approaching the morning, and the ocean looks deep and gloomy under the gloomy sky, as if something terrifying is brewing.

  Lu Li stopped temporarily to rest, left the windbreak for a short time, and came back with a jar full of water in his hand. Heating it on a stone, Lu Li picked up the canned pork beside him, ate the remaining half, and got out of the windbreak with the empty can and pursed his lips tightly, and walked towards the beach.

   Again, it was really salty.

   After eating, the desire to drink water has risen to the top, but the effect of filling hunger is very good, at least Lu Li has no hunger until now.

   While squatting down to clean the jars, I looked around, and there were always new conch shells that were brought to the beach by the waves, and then rolled back again.

  The first branch of Lu Li standing on the beach was completely submerged, and the second branch was mostly submerged, and only a corner would be revealed when the waves receded.

  The sea has risen a lot from two hours ago.

  New waves rushed in, covering Lu Li's feet. It left a scallop at Lu Li's feet and backed away.

  Lu Li reached out and picked it up, used a stone chip to pry open the scallop, and found that it was empty, and only the remaining fingernail-sized snow-white minced meat was attached to the scallop.

   Throwing the scallops back into the sea, Lu Li took the jar to the windbreak, picked up the groundwater again, returned to the windbreak, and drilled back to the windbreak with a pile of firewood piled outside.

  The water on the stones was just warm, Lu Li added some branches to the fire to warm up, and lay down to rest.

  grunt…

   A strange figure approached and made a vague mumble.

  Lu Li opened his eyes, the boiling water in the jar by the fire was boiling.

   He sat up and picked up the jar with a branch, put it in the hollow dug aside, covered it with clean stones to prevent the sand from falling into the water, added another piece of firewood, and went back to sleep.

The frequency of waking up every few dozen minutes is still the same. The first time he woke up, Lu Li drank some water, the second time he woke up, Lu Li drank more, and the third time he woke up, Lu Li finished drinking the water in the jar. , exchange the empty can for the half-filled can.

During the    period, Lu Li felt cold, and the coldness disappeared after he added a lot of firewood to the fire. He fell asleep to the sound of the sea breeze blowing outside.

  The time goes by and the afternoon is gradually approaching.

   Lu Li woke up at a certain moment, his head was groggy, but he felt that it was difficult to fall back asleep.

   After drinking the hot water in the jar, Lu Li went to the windbreak to replace the filled jar.

  It is difficult to record the exact time on the island, and Lu Li can only guess that the time has passed 5~6 hours by the number of water received.

   The time may be approaching five o'clock in the afternoon, and it will be dark before long.

  Add firewood to the fire, and Lu Li drilled out of the windbreak.

  The shoreline on the beach is receding, the tide is at its peak at noon and receding in the afternoon.

  Lili followed the coastline to the waterbore, the tide had receded, leaving five or six finger-sized fish in the waterbore.

  The harvest is very small, and they are not even as big as the whitebait thrown into the water. To attract more fish, he would switch to more attractive food, such as carrion.

   Lu Li rolled up his trousers and dived into the water, chasing after the little fish who was disturbed by the murky water.

   After tossing for a few minutes, Lu Li managed to catch four of them, and the remaining one was hard to find in the turbid water. Lu Li didn't waste any more time, shot the four small fish to death, and continued forward, drowning the sea water and approaching the beach where the flipper prints were found.

  With the high tide a few hours ago, most of the fins on the beach disappeared, including Lu Li's. There were still twelve traces in the count, but after no new fins were added, Lu Li returned to Shuibo, and then from Shuibo to the windbreak.

   The footprints here are messy and intricate, it is impossible to cover up, Lu Li gave up his plan. He looked up at the sky, the sky was darker than when he woke up, it was getting dark.

   Taking advantage of the last rhythm before dark, Lu Li put the small fish on the rocks beside the fire, and went into the forest to look for an obstacle that could block the opening of the windbreak.

   He inevitably approached the only cliff-top hut where humans have lived, but when he walked up the path and approached the cliff-top hut, he suddenly frowned.

   The feeling of unease that was briefly raised by entering the wooden house is becoming stronger as it approaches.

   As if what Lu Li was approaching was not a log cabin, but a dark and malicious aura.

   Lu Li stopped when he was less than ten meters away from the wooden house. He felt that if he got closer, the breath would be drawn to him.

   Lu Li can't sense each other through the psychic gun, the perception of the psychic gun is mutual, Lu Li can feel each other, and the other party will also feel Lu Li, this is not a good idea.

   With a little regret, he glanced at the lounge chair on the other side of the hut. Lu Li stepped back and returned to the starting point of the trail.

   Looking around for half a circle, the sky was approaching evening, and things in the distance became difficult to see. Lu Li, who found nothing, retreated to the windbreak.

   Surprisingly, a familiar silhouette lay under the cliff a dozen meters away from the windbreak. Twenty minutes ago, Lu Li just decided to give it up.

   That was a reclining chair.

  “…?”

  Lu Li looked up at the top of the cliff.

  Although the wind on the top of the cliff is strong, there is a possibility that the reclining chair that has been neglected for a long time may be blown down by the wind - but this scene is too coincidental now.

  Lu Li suppressed the thought of drawing a gun and silently accepted the gift. He dragged the reclining chair to the outside of the windbreak and disassembled it. The side with the fabric was like a stretcher, and he placed it at the entrance of the windbreak.

  The windproof part is completely covered on the left and right, and there is a gap of about 20 cm above it, which is just enough to allow the smoke from the fire to escape.

   The size is just right, and if it is removed by something, the movement will be immediately perceived by Lu Li.

   He seemed to have completely forgotten that there was another person on the island.

Lu Li looked into the distance, only a dark outline remained on the sea surface dozens of meters away, and the dark red clouds on the west side were gradually disappearing. The light and temperature seemed to be pulled away from this world, leaving only the windbreak. The fire inside is bright and heartwarming.

   Holding enough firewood to burn until tomorrow, he put it into the windbreak, and Lu Li got into it. Pull back on the recliner.

  The sound of the waves lapping and the whistling of the sea breeze seemed to be muted because of the reclining chairs. With the addition of a "door" in the depression, there was some false sense of security here.

   Turned the four scorched little fish over, and Lu Li leaned against the warm stone wall, facing the outside world.

   The last light from the outside world disappeared.

   Night falls.
