C3 Stone Forest.
It seemed like this alien lifeform wasn’t too reliable. It even wanted him to explore by himself.
I could give you a 5-star rating, but now I can only give you a 4-star rating.
He raised his hand to look at his Rolex watch. It was already past 11 pm.
He hadn’t expected to spend more than an hour just by chopping a coconut. He couldn’t rest any longer. He had to find a place to spend the night before dark.
It would be best if it was a cave. If not, he could only build a temporary shelter. Time was tight.
He had already calculated in his heart. The time he fell into the sea should be around midnight.
At most, it would only be three to four hours. If he waited for the rescue, even if the military knew about the loss of his Black Harrier, it would still take at least 24 hours. That was already very fast.
He could only do the worst. He couldn’t sit here and wait for the rescue. If the rescue didn’t come, then it would be too late.
He didn’t think so much. He only wanted to survive tonight. The highest probability was that the rescue would come tomorrow.
He raised his head to look at the coconut forest. To the east was the sea, and to the southwest was a forest of rocks.
This was a region made of rocks. There were all sorts of rocks of different sizes.
There were not many plants in the middle of the rocks. Perhaps he could find a cave in the rocky area.
However, before Xia Qingfeng went to the rocky area, he still had to go to the beach.
He put the dagger into the sheath on his waist and got up to walk to the beach. He still had four coconuts under the coconut tree, but he was in no hurry. When he arrived at the beach, he searched carefully along the coast and bent down to pick up some scallops from the beach.
An hour passed quickly. Xia Qingfeng stumbled to the coconut tree. It was currently noon, and the sun was shining on the beach.
He felt that it was at least 40 degrees Celsius.
It was already his limit to last an hour on the beach. He was sweating all over. As soon as his sweat was evaporated by the high temperature, his arms were already slightly burned, and he felt a burning pain.
His T-shirt and jeans were dry and smelled sour. This smell was the sweat that had been evaporated by the sun and left on his clothes. His head was still dizzy. He knew that he could not stay on the beach any longer. If he stayed there, he might get a heatstroke.
He stumbled back to the coconut tree. Xia Qingfeng picked up some seafood and threw them on the ground. He used the upper half of his t-shirt to cover his seafood. This time, he had a lot of harvest. His hood was almost full.
However, he couldn't care less about that. He quickly pulled out the military dagger and opened two coconuts. He drank half of the coconut water and wiped his face with it. Only then did he wake up.
He was very weak right now. He didn't even dare to take a bath in the sea. He was afraid that if he went down, the waves would sweep him into the sea and he wouldn't be able to come back up.
He panted heavily, allowing the hot sea breeze to enter his lungs through his mouth and nose. He then breathed out. Xia Qingfeng felt that every breath of air was grinding his throat. It was a kind of torture.
He leaned against the coconut tree and rested for a while. He closed his eyes slightly. He had originally intended to close his eyes and rest. After all, the sunlight outside was too strong and it was a bit dazzling.
However, he fell asleep due to excessive fatigue.
He felt that he had only narrowed his eyes slightly before he woke up abruptly. The first thing he did when he woke up was to look around. Then, he raised his hand to look at his Rolex watch.
3: 1 PM.
He had actually slept for two hours. The sun had already begun to set in the west. The place where he was originally under the shade had already shifted to the east. He had been exposed to the sunlight.
He had to act immediately.
Fortunately, he had only slept for two hours. If he had slept until the sky turned dark, then things would be very troublesome. He wouldn't even be able to start a fire at night.
Xia Qingfeng cut open another coconut and drank all the coconut meat. After that, he conveniently went along the coconut tree.
However, he would soon be hungry after drinking water and eating the coconut meat. He had to go to the Stone Forest to find a place to spend the night. As long as he could find a place to spend the night.
He could then collect some wood and branches to make a fire. He had to clean up the seafood he had just picked up by the beach. Otherwise, the shells would rot under the sun and become unpalatable.
Xia Qingfeng used the upper part of his clothes to wrap around the seafood he had picked up. He tied the coconut with a short cloth and threw it on his shoulder. He then walked towards the Stone Forest.
The Stone Forest was not small. It looked to be about a thousand square meters.
Xia Qingfeng did not need to walk through the entire Stone Forest. He only needed to find a high vantage point and look around. In the end, he was disappointed. He could see everything, but there was no cave.
The rocks here were all alone. They were like a barren forest. The rocks were big and small. The big ones were even more than ten meters tall.
Finally, he confirmed where he would spend the night. It was near a forest in the north. He had to go to the forest to pick up some dry wood to make a fire. This way, he could save some of his strength.
His every ounce of strength was precious, and he had to make every effort to save it. He absolutely would not allow himself to waste it.
Once he made up his mind, Xia Qingfeng quickly walked towards his destination. There were two boulders that were about the same height, and there was a distance of about four to five meters between them. This was the place where he could build a temporary shelter.
Xia Qingfeng unbuttoned his shirt and placed the seafood on the two boulders. He also placed the coconuts here. Without even turning his head, he rushed towards the forest.
The moment he entered the forest, he felt a refreshing feeling.
Ever since he woke up, he had been exposed to the scorching sun. Now that he had entered the forest filled with the scent of trees, he couldn't help but take in two deep breaths. The air here was no longer as hot as before, but instead had a hint of coolness.
The afternoon sunlight was the most piercing. The sunlight shone through the leaves and left behind strange and bizarre light spots on the ground.
Looking around, there were all kinds of colors that made people happy. The trees were green, the grass was green, and the moist air created a special environment in the forest, giving birth to moss that was also dyed green. The refreshing and warm air was indescribable with words, and even the air that entered his lungs was green.
However, he did not stop. He quickly walked into the forest. Looking into the forest, there were towering trees that were stacked on top of each other. They grew wildly, showing the brutality of the primitive forest. Every tree was competing with each other.
In order to occupy more space and sunlight, branches and branches were everywhere. There was me in you, and there was you in me. These branches and branches that were growing uncontrollably gave Xia Qingfeng a sense of killing. It surged up like a wave, making him feel suffocated.
For a moment, he had the illusion that he was not facing a towering tree, but a team of ancient giants that were attacking and killing each other.
After a while.
Xia Qingfeng calmed down and carefully walked in. The trees were covered with leaves, and his feet felt soft. Xia Qingfeng did not intend to cut down the trees, so he did not go deep. He only picked up some withered branches under the trees. There was no lack of withered leaves and branches in the forest. Soon, he carried a large pile of withered branches and walked back.
He placed the withered branches in front of two huge rocks.
He only gasped for a moment before he started to work again. He moved the small stones between the two huge rocks and cleared the area. He then found three stones that were almost the same and placed them outside the two huge rocks.
He placed the three stones in a triangular shape that was almost half a meter high. He looked around and found no suitable stone slabs. He could only go out and find one. He remembered that there was a stone slab just now.
