21 Days of Primitive Life: Maldives Tour.
Xiaofeng chats about the wilderness.
Within five minutes of arriving on the island, the two were peeled by the heat and tanned by a degree. Jonathan's skin was red and dull, apparently sunburned, and the two had to speed up their pace in the tree. Alison made herself clothes out of leaves, while Jonathan quickly set up a bed frame away from the ground with wooden sticks, and the temperature plummeted at night, just right for the two to sleep together. But Alison had a little hard time getting entangled, and after repeated struggles, she accepted Jonathan's proposal.
Jonathan was so red and unbearable, especially in areas that had never been in the sun, but he said he wouldn't be demoralized, let alone delay finding food and building shelter. But he needed a good rest, and while he was resting, Allison made herself a straw hat and a dress. Jonathan rested for a while and found that his whole body was even redder, and he was a little shaken that he only had to go home. Alison didn't know how to persuade her partner, but if Jonathan abstained, she would have to act independently for the remaining twenty days.
Growing up in Hawaii, she learned many useful tips, such as finding berries that could treat sunburn, but the fruit didn't work for Jonathan, who had severe sunburns. Jonathan lay down for three days and couldn't do anything. Alison was left alone to go to the beach looking for coconuts, where she picked up a lot of marine debris and pieced together a dress for herself. Since she didn't have enough strength to beat the coconut with a bamboo pole, she had to tie the tree trunk with a rope and move it step by step. Jonathan, who was lying in the camp, felt that Alison's decision-making power was not good, can coconuts have water works? What is the use of just picking coconuts? It can be said that he does not look at coconuts at all.
But when Alison took back the coconut, he did not refuse, but asked her if she had been busy for most of the day and only got back three coconuts? Alison was very aggrieved that she was busy weaving straw mats to pick up garbage, and she was bitten by fire ants to pick coconuts, but when she came back, she was questioned by Jonathan, who slept all day. She felt that she should be responsible for her partner, but Jonathan's attitude was really unpleasant.
She hoped that Jonathan would be able to do spear fishing or do what he could when he was better, but she felt that these were extravagances, and would a strong soldier like him, who was accustomed to commanding, really listen to a Hawaiian girl in a hula dance?
Jonathan said that he was not defeated and would never admit defeat, but there was a first time in everything, and if the situation did not improve for a few days, he would pack up and go home. Despite her disappointment with her partner, Alison took care of him as much as she could, but on the sixth day, something unexpected happened. Alison felt unprecedented physical pain, and she was weak and could no longer pick coconuts, so she could only give the task of picking coconuts to find water to Jonathan, who had rested for 6 days. Jonathan thinks that picking coconuts is too inefficient to dig water as quickly, but he ignores the location, which is the Maldives.
The country's freshwater layer stretches below sea level and is vulnerable to contamination by seawater, which can cause seizures and irregular heartbeats, yet he remains stubborn in digging wells. Alison cried sadly at camp, trying to stay positive and in a good mood almost every moment except for her period. Last time she fainted due to physical pain, she was sent to the emergency room for a little better, but the current environment has neither drugs nor pain relief, which has hit her very hard.
Jonathan didn't bring back good news, and although he could fit himself into the frozen digger, he still couldn't find the slightest bit of liquid water.
