Everything was prepared.

The sky was gradually turning dark.

Scarlett and the others were gradually getting used to life on the island.

Even without Bell’s guidance, they could search for food on this beach.

This made Bell feel relieved.

As for Bell, he was busy making the bamboo raft.

There was no rope on the island.

Therefore, Bell still chose the previous method.

He used the fibers of the banana tree to weave the ropes.

While busy with his work, Bell did not forget to explain his actions to the audience in the live-stream.

“Back in the primeval forest in Shennongjia, I remember saying that in this wilderness, ropes are an important tool second only to knives.”

“Only by being in the wilderness can you understand the meaning of this sentence.”

“Whether it is building a shelter or making tools, even drilling wood to start a fire, rope is an indispensable tool.”

While speaking, Bell had already dried the fibers of the banana trees.

“The seawater contains a lot of salt and is very corrosive. The ropes woven from these fibers will become soft after soaking in seawater for a day.”

“Therefore, we have to use other methods to remedy this shortcoming. We can tie a few more fibers to create a thicker rope.”

“This can prevent the problem of the ropes to a certain extent and prevent the bamboo raft from collapsing.”

“Your bamboo raft is tied to your life in the sea.”

Bell said solemnly.

He did not dare to be careless about this.

“There was a real incident in the Atlantic. A freighter crashed into a hidden reef, causing the hull to be damaged and sunk. One of the crew members on this ship was washed to an uninhabited island by the sea.”

“Rumor has it that the deserted island was similar to this island. It also lacks food and water resources.”

“This crew member made a raft just like we are doing now, but unfortunately, a day after he went out to sea, he encountered a storm. This crew member jumped into the sea and hugged the bamboo raft tightly.”

“This is a correct decision.”

“In a situation where the wind and waves are too strong, if you still choose to sit on the bamboo raft, it will only increase the pressure on the bamboo raft. In this case, it’s better to choose to enter the sea and tie yourself to the bamboo raft.”

“If the bamboo raft is not destroyed by the seawater, at least it can give you enough buoyancy.”

“Although the crew member fainted, he was still saved.”

“Even while unconscious, he was still holding onto the bamboo raft tightly.”

Bell had already finished weaving the rope.

The people in the live-stream were amazed when they heard Bell’s story.

At the same time, many fans cheered for Bell.

Bell’s fans continued to increase.

Scarlett and the others had finished preparing dinner.

As expected, it was the bull shark meat and some oysters.

However, Bell still ate happily.

When Bell was telling the story just now, they also listened.

After knowing that moving on the sea was so dangerous, they couldn’t help but be nervous.

Bell could only comfort them verbally.

After all, not everyone could accept floating on the boundless sea on a bamboo raft.

It was already night time.

The fire crackled at night.

The night passed quickly.

In his sleep, Bell felt a few lumps of softness pressing on him.

It even made it difficult for him to breathe.

Bell opened his eyes. In his hazy vision, something were pressing against his chest.

Rubbing his eyes, he saw that, at some point, Keira and Scarlett had already run to his side. The two were on either side of him, pressing against him.

He was held between the two like a teddy bear.

Natalie Portman and Annie Hathaway accompanied each other while keeping guard.

However, the two of them seemed to be unable to hold on anymore as they kept lowering their heads.

“Alright, you guys can go and rest. It’s my turn.”

After breaking free from the restraints of Keira and Scarlett, Bell walked to Annie and Natalie.

“It’s okay. You have worked hard today. You can rest for a while more. We can sleep after dawn.”

Natalie acted like an understanding older sister.

Bell, who was holding in his exhaustion, smiled.

Bell knew that she was trying to hold on. He shook his head and pushed the two of them into the shelter.

“It’s still some time before dawn.”

“If you’re alone in the wilderness, you should not sleep too much. You need to stay vigilant at all times.”

“Although this island is not big, there might be other beasts.”

“Moreover, we are not the only ones living on this island.”

Because of the night, there were not as many fans in the live-stream as in the daytime.

But many people were still interacting with Bell.

“Host, are you going out to sea today?”

“I hope everything goes smoothly.”

Bell only smiled and did not answer.

Going out to the sea was not a small matter. He had to consider the weather and food.

“We can build the bamboo raft first while the weather is cool.”

“As for whether we can go out to sea, that will depend on the weather.”

Seeing that the girls were already asleep, Bell did not disturb them.

Instead, he secretly moved away.

Making the bamboo raft was not simple. Even Bell felt it a little troublesome.

This was different from the simple bamboo raft he had built in Shennongjia.

Shennongjia was only a freshwater river that was not corrosive. Moreover, even if he was washed down the river, Bell could easily swim to the shore.

But in this vast sea, Bell was not confident that he could survive in the sea.

Therefore, he had to spend more effort on the bamboo raft.

“We have a large number of people, and we can’t split up, so the bamboo raft has to be slightly larger.”

“It has to be at least five meters long.”

“As for its width, it needs to accommodate at least three people side by side.”

“On the right side of the bamboo raft, there has to be a heavier piece of wood as a frame.”

“This can maintain the stability of the bamboo raft to a certain extent.”

Bell began to work while talking.
