small fish. He discovered a strange seaweed with a unique shape and delicious taste. He grilled seafood and seaweed with a torch and enjoyed a delicious dinner.
As the sky gradually darkened, he lay on the simple bed in the tree house and thought about the day’s experiences. He realized that although this mysterious island was full of unknowns and challenges, every difficulty made him stronger. He is full of confidence in the future and believes that he can survive in this unknown land.
Ouyang Xiaofeng mustered up the courage to climb up the coconut tree again. This time he was more cautious, knowing the fragility of coconuts. He climbed slowly, trying to maintain his balance. The coconuts grew closer in the canopy, and he could feel their fresh scent.
He twisted it lightly and the coconut swayed in his hand, but this time he was more experienced and tapped it gently with his hand until cracks appeared at the bottom of the coconut. Then he pushed hard and the coconut rolled down. He quickly caught it to avoid the coconut from breaking again.
The weight of the coconut made him feel a little lucky, and he carefully carried the coconut back to the ground. Coconut water is one of his most precious possessions on this isolated island. He sat under the shade of a tree, opening the coconut and savoring the hard-won drink.
The hardships and struggles during this period made him appreciate what he has now even more. He realizes that survival in this mysterious land is a challenge, but he is willing to work hard and discover its secrets.
“Maybe there are other resources here. I will continue to explore and find new food and water sources.” He made a secret decision.
After some hard work, he built a crude shelter. He began to use the resources on the island to make simple tools to find more convenience for his survival on this isolated island. Ouyang Xiaofeng also began to try to establish a harmonious relationship with the surrounding environment, animals and plants. He knew that this would have a profound impact on his survival and exploration.
Ouyang Xiaofeng mustered up the courage to challenge again and climbed up the coconut tree again. He knew in his heart that no matter what happened, he could not give up. The trunk of the coconut tree was a little slippery, but he climbed up carefully.
He reached the canopy of coconut palms, which seemed so close at hand. He gently twisted the coconut and tried to pluck it off. However, at this moment, a breeze blew through, causing the branches to sway. He felt unsteady and involuntarily grasped the trunk of the tree, but the coconut slipped from his hand and shattered to pieces.
He looked at the broken coconut with disappointment and felt a little frustrated. But he knew this wasn’t the time to give up. He wiped the sweat from his forehead with his hand and encouraged himself: “If I try it again, I will definitely succeed.”
He returned to the ground again, picked up the broken coconuts, and began to clean up. He had no intention of giving up, only a firmer belief. He prepared for a new climb, once again reaching the canopy of the coconut trees.
This time, he was more cautious. He looked for a stable fulcrum on the tree trunk, moved carefully, and stabilized his body. He set his sights on a big coconut, concentrated his attention, and tried not to let outside factors interfere.
He finally reached the target coconut and carefully unscrewed it. This time, he did it. The coconut fell into his hands intact and he felt filled with joy. He opened the coconut with the wooden plug on it, and the coconut juice was clear and sweet.
Ouyang Xiaofeng found a piece of fresh grass, picked a handful, and returned to the coconut tree. He carefully spread a layer of grass on the ground to create a soft mat. He weaved some simple ropes from grass and tied them into a small basket, ready to use it to hold coconuts.
He climbed up the coconut tree again, aiming for the coconut he had just successfully picked. He felt a joy of victory and full of curiosity about the unknown world. He gently tossed the coconut, making sure to let it fall to the mat on the ground.
“Bang!” The coconut fell on the straw mat without breaking.

He breathed a sigh of relief, came down from the tree, and picked up the coconut. The coconut was hard on the outside, but he knew the juice inside would become his food and water source. He took out the small basket tied to the tree and put the coconut in it.
“Step by step, I will slowly adapt to this place.” He said to himself.
He sat on the straw mat and slowly tasted the coconut water, feeling the pleasure of the coconut water moisturizing his throat. This was his first small victory on this mysterious island and the result of his own efforts.
Night falls and the stars shine brightly.
Chapter 213 also symbolizes his survival and struggle
He returned to the treehouse, lay on the simple bed, and reviewed the day’s experience. He thought of his family members far away, their expectations and blessings. He also thought about the dreams he had had. This unknown land was full of infinite possibilities.
Ouyang Xiaofeng breathed a sigh of relief and felt much more relaxed. He sat on the straw mat, looking up at the stars, holding a coconut in his hand. This coconut became his first victory on this mysterious island and also symbolized his survival and struggle.
“It’s so sweet. This coconut juice is so delicious.” He licked his lips and felt the sweetness of the coconut juice reverberating in his mouth.
This sudden dilemma made him experience frustration, but it also exercised his will and wisdom. He is full of exploration and curiosity about this mysterious land, and he knows that there may be more unknown secrets waiting for him to discover.
With the supplement of coconut water, he felt that his physical strength gradually recovered and his thinking became clearer. He decided to take advantage of this favorable situation and continue exploring his surroundings. He believed that this mysterious island must have more valuable resources waiting for him to discover.
The next day, he started a new adventure. He decided to head deeper inland to see if there were more sources of food and water. He walked through the dense woods and felt the sunlight shining through the leaves, casting mottled light and shadow.
Suddenly, he saw a bush of plants with some unfamiliar fruits. He carefully tasted it to make sure it was safe before starting to pick. He was filled with excitement and joy as these new discoveries provided him with more food options. While collecting food, Ouyang Xiaofeng discovered a cave hidden among the rocks. He approached curiously, trying to explore the cave to see if there was anything interesting inside. The entrance to the cave was dark, and he felt a little nervous, but the adventurous spirit in his heart allowed him to overcome his fear, and he slowly stepped into the cave.
“Maybe there will be more useful resources here.” He whispered to himself.
The cave is dark and humid, and the breeze blows through, carrying a faint earthy smell. He took out a torch and lit the cave. The firelight reflected on the cave wall made him feel a little more at ease. He began walking deeper into the cave, ever alert.
Suddenly, he heard some faint sounds, like moans coming from afar. He paused, strained his ears and listened, and the sound became clearer. He was full of contradictions and wanted to leave this potentially dangerous place, but he couldn’t bear to ignore it. Eventually, humanitarianism triumphed over fear, and he decided to discover the source of the sound.
He followed the sound and heard the moans more and more clearly. Deep in the cave, he found an injured seabird, its feathers stained with mud and its wings injured. It struggled to fly out of the cave, but its injured wings made it unable to do anything.
“Are you injured?” Ouyang Xiaofeng asked softly.
