Qi Yu turned his head to look at Director Wang, "Ah, can we drink water now?"
Since they were not human, even if they didn't drink water or eat for a year, they wouldn't get thirsty or hungry. Therefore, they had no idea how to conduct a wilderness survival in a normal human way.
Anyway, it was just training for now, so they were a bit lenient, not eating or drinking much, only planning to do so when Director Wang and Director Li said it was okay.
But they never expected that Director Wang and Director Li wouldn't call them until nightfall. They also forgot about it, so they played for the entire day and only remembered to ask about drinking water and eating now, in the middle of the night.
Director Wang snapped back to attention and nodded, indicating it was okay.
Upon hearing this, Si Qing then took a symbolic sip of water and continued to discuss with the others how to play by the sea tomorrow, whether to go fishing, and so on.
Qi Yu quickly nodded, "I agree, I agree. Let's go fishing in the sea tomorrow. Besides fishing, I also want to see the deep sea. There must be a lot of delicious food at the bottom of the ocean."
Shaofeng couldn't help but hum in agreement.
They really hadn't been to the seaside for a long time, and he kind of wanted to take a saltwater bath.
An Nuo also felt like taking a saltwater bath, feeling his dragon scales itching.
Director Wang and Director Li couldn't understand.
"You still want to dive? That's too dangerous. Especially since we don't have any equipment now. Even if you hold your breath and dive to the bottom, what if something goes wrong? What if you drown?" Director Li was a bit anxious.
An Nuo and Shaofeng gave him a very strange look, wanting to say that they couldn't possibly drown.
But the words got stuck in their throats, feeling that this matter was impossible to explain. So, the few of them could only nod, indicating they understood, and privately planned to go into the sea to catch some seafood after Director Wang and Director Li fell asleep.
Director Wang and Director Li had no idea they were discussing this privately.
After a good talk about wilderness survival skills, the two decided to set up tents and sleep.
Chen Xi and Yan Hua also followed suit in setting up tents. The speed at which they set up tents was very fast, almost done in the time it took to drink a cup of tea.
But perhaps it was due to being too tired, Director Wang and Director Li didn't think there was anything unusual about the group's speed. They bid each other goodnight, and Director Wang and Director Li each got into their own tents to sleep.
During this time, Qi Yu kept his eyes open, waiting.
It wasn't until there were no more lights from Director Wang and Director Li's side, and steady breathing could be heard.
Only then did Qi Yu, along with the others, tacitly crawl out of the tents. Then, like a flash of light, they disappeared from their spots and plunged into the seawater.
The seawater in this world was not as clear as the seawater in their own world. Well, all the shallow water areas were polluted. When they reached the deep water areas, there were still quite a lot of edible seafood.
Qi Yu completely followed his own preferences. If he wanted to eat crab, he caught crabs, and also a few large conchs.
In addition, they also needed to catch more small fish and shrimp, and that large squid that looked quite good.
Qi Yu didn't look like he was diving, but rather like he was shopping at his own market.
He caught whatever he saw and wanted to eat.
The others were the same.
Each of them caught a large pile.
When they returned to shore, they were almost laden with goods.
Shaofeng went into the forest and gathered some firewood, then shaved all the firewood into slender bamboo poles. He then distributed them to everyone, skewered the seafood, sprinkled the seasonings they had brought earlier, and placed them on the bonfire to roast.
The large squids were all roasted until they shriveled up, emitting waves of aroma.
Although Director Wang and Director Li had gone to bed early, both of them were actually not full and their stomachs were rumbling as they slept.
Now, smelling the seafood, especially roasted seafood, they couldn't sleep at all.
They crawled out of their tents and looked out, only to see various kinds of food being roasted over the bonfires.
Director Wang gasped.
Director Li was more direct, his mouth watering.
The two sat by their tents, staring for a long time, wanting to go out and see what Qi Yu and the others were eating, but they felt a bit embarrassed.
Qi Yu sensed that the two directors were awake and waved generously at them, inviting them to come over and eat together.
Director Wang and Director Li initially wanted to politely decline, but they were too hungry, so they couldn't refuse.
The two walked over together and sat down cross-legged.
Chen Xi walked over from not far away, holding a large bag in his arms, which looked quite bulging.
Director Wang was already drooling over the grilled prawns. Finally, when one was roasted and distributed equally among everyone, he was about to pick it up to eat when he turned and saw this scene. He couldn't help but ask curiously, "Chen Xi, what are you holding in your arms? It looks quite heavy, do you need help?"
"No, no. Didn't you say we should conserve water? So I thought we might get thirsty after eating, so I picked some wild fruits," Chen Xi said as he opened his clothes and sat down cross-legged on the ground. What he was holding was actually several large coconuts.
Director Wang looked up at the coconut trees nearby, his face filled with realization. He was wondering how to open these things if each person had one, when he looked down and saw Chen Xi easily peel the coconuts in front of him as if he were peeling an orange, and then poked a hole in the middle with a chopstick.
Director Wang's mouth fell open.
Director Li next to him was completely dumbfounded.
The way Chen Xi opened the coconuts made them feel as if he were peeling an orange.
It was incredibly easy.
Chen Xi noticed that Director Wang and Director Li were both looking at him strangely and felt confused, "What's wrong? Is the coconut not good to drink? I think it's okay. Although it's not as sweet as I imagined, it seems quite thirst-quenching."
Actually, compared to coconuts, Chen Xi would rather swim in the sea a few more times and drink some seawater.
As a sea dragon, he liked that kind of life.
However, with two ordinary humans present, it was inconvenient to do so, so he could only endure it for now and drink these ordinary coconut juices.
Chen Xi shook his head as he thought, feeling a bit regretful. The taste of these coconut juices was really a bit lacking.
Not as good as seawater, nor as good as the immortal brews in his storage pouch.
Director Wang and Director Li were initially very refined when they started eating, but later they were too hungry. Seeing everyone eating heartily, they also let go of their reservations.
However, while eating, Director Wang was still very curious, "How did you get all this seafood?"
