Chapter 16: Energetic young lady!

The vegetation on the island is lush, and there are palms and tree-like fern plants. The plants are tall and it is easy to see the sun when it penetrates into the rain forest.
The road is really not easy to walk. In order to compete for the sun, various plants occupy the rain forest. Thanks to Bai Zhen who cleared a rough road when he returned, otherwise Hua Mu would have to suffer a lot.
But even so, the eldest lady has been screaming.
The sea breeze on beaches and grass slopes is strong, and there are naturally few insects. Therefore, although Hua Mu was occasionally bitten after coming to the island, he was still within the tolerance range. When looking for the water source, White Pillow was looking for some easier roads, and the action was faster. Huamu was not affected, but this time it was different-she had been bitten by several bags.
"Can you hurry up?"
But the white pillow on her back didn't complain, Hua Mu somehow couldn't say she was bitten by mosquitoes.
Bai Zhen didn't know that her mistress was guilty, and thoughtfully said: "Hurry up, you may be scratched by the branches."
She would rather be scratched by a tree branch, the pain is really not the most difficult, itchy. Hua Mu's hesitation, he was bitten on the leg again, could not help kicking.
Bai Zhen finally realized that something was wrong and asked nervously: "Miss, have you been bitten by a bug?"
There was no way to conceal it. Hua Mu scratched his thigh with his hand and complained: "Itchy is dead."
Speaking of naked Ludo, the white pillow with only a vest on her upper body is not much better than her, but Hua Mu sees that she seems to be unaware of mosquitoes and can't help but wonder: "Aren't you bitten? "
The white pillow turned Huamu upside down, explaining while speeding up: "I set up a barrier. Miss, please pay attention to the branches, I will walk faster."
For sentinels, hidden breath is a very important course. Their barriers can not only block the interference of a lot of useless information from outside, but also hide their existence.
Hua Mu was so jealous that her teeth tickled, but she secretly scolded the sentry for her convenience. Guides naturally have barriers, but they focus on mental protection. What's more, she is not only a half-hanger guide, but also unable to lift the guide suppressor, which is no different from ordinary people.
Once the white pillow speeded up, the degree of bumps inevitably increased, and Hua Mu had to hug her neck tightly.
Although it has not rained for more than ten days, the water source that the two found before has basically dried up, but the ground of the rainforest is still wet. There is almost no soil on the ground, and all are decaying plants and fallen leaves, which undoubtedly increases the difficulty of the action.
But the sentinel's pace is still rapid, except for some bumps, it is really difficult to find anything that can be criticized.
The Gadfly didn't let Hua Mu go, but Hua Mu couldn't take care of this anymore-she was about to vomit.
Are you sure she is carrying a sentry instead of a horse?
In this environment, the white pillow only took less than 20 minutes for a distance of five or six kilometers.
"Miss, we are here!"
Behind Hua Mu, he could only endure with his eyes closed, and when he heard the white pillow, he opened it like amnesty. The sight in front of him made Hua Mu happy and surprised, and even a little uneasy.
This is a large coconut grove, and although there are other plants growing, it is significantly different from the rainforest they saw these days.
The island is full of palm plants, but the density between the species will not be much different. However, the density of vegetation in this forest is relatively small, and the species is also more singular. The arbor plant is dominated by coconut trees, and other tall trees are hard to see.
As for the middle and lower spaces, there are far fewer vines and shrubs than those in the rain forest.
"White pillow, have you checked how big this coconut grove is?"
Huamu has a thought in his mind.
"I turned around, it should be about one hectare."
White Pillow wants to bring flowers to Mu, of course, first confirm the safety of the surrounding. Further east is a coastline, and it is much longer than where the two landed. She didn't check it for the time being, but she was determined to have time to explore it.
A longer coastline means more food and resources, and more things drifting to the island.
"So about two hundred coconut trees?"
"How do you know?"
The white pillow has not been counted specifically, but the sentinel is so good, because the senses are too sharp, and many things are analyzed unconsciously.
Hua Mu naturally has no such skill, but just asked a few more questions. She took a lot of thoughts on her island, ranging from the decoration of holiday villas to the planting of greenery on the island.
Since it is a tropical island, coconut trees are indispensable. She asked the gardener because of this, and the gardener also used coconut trees as a way of planting cash crops.
Coconut trees are generally planted in squares with a spacing of seven meters or eight meters, and rectangular plants with a spacing of seven meters and eight meters. Planting with wide and narrow rows and dense planting can reduce the space occupied by each coconut tree to 45 square meters.
One hectare is 10,000 square meters, and it can grow more than 200 trees.
"My guess."
But she was not sure about her conjecture. After all, compared to the artificially planted coconut grove, this place is too deserted. Since it is a scientific and reasonable planting method, it means that it is also the minimum requirement for wild coconut trees. Perhaps it is the result of natural screening?
Bai Zhen didn't doubt that he was there, and sincerely praised: "Miss, you are so powerful."
Hua Mu sighed, "Let me go."
The white pillow lowered Hua Mu from the back and noticed the bite marks on her arms and legs. She couldn't help worrying: "Miss, you have been bitten badly. I'll find some mosquito repellent."
Although Huamu is really itchy, but whether you are looking for herbs or spices, you can talk about it later. The coconut grove felt so strange to her that it didn't even last long.
"You just climbed there and picked the coconut?"
The height of coconut trees here is mostly about ten meters, and the highest is not more than fifteen meters, which is regarded as a short coconut tree. But even ten meters is scary enough. Hua Mu felt terrified when she thought of the white pillow climbing up.
Bai Zhen didn't quite understand why Hua Mu asked such obvious questions, and nodded honestly.
It's too dangerous. The bare trunk doesn't have a branch in case it falls.
"I don't really want to drink coconut milk, don't climb trees without moving in the future."
White Pillow was a little puzzled. When she saw Hua Mu's face, she didn't dare to ask in detail, only whispered: "But I haven't found any water yet."
Naturally, there is no water in the rain forest, but the ground is full of decay. The immobile water can easily breed parasites and bacteria, which is too dangerous. Less than a last resort, White Pillow never wants to choose fresh water in a puddle.
"Then continue to look for it, and wait for the water to drink before you can pick these coconuts."
Although weird, this coconut grove did give Hua Mu a peace of mind. Two hundred coconut trees, and many of them are hung with fruits, so the two can temporarily die without fear of thirst.
But she still urgently needs clean water-Huamu has not cleaned her body in two days!
White pillow nodded, and Hua Mu asked her to go around with her back. In addition to coconut trees, there are some other fruit trees here, such as banana trees, lotus mist trees, date palm trees, etc. Many of them bear fruit, but they are not mature enough. , Also loaded with pockets that are not full of white pillows.
With a white pillow on her back, she walked east out of the coconut grove. After a short grassy slope, a coastline stretching for several kilometers appeared in front of the two. The white-golden beach followed by the clear green sea, and the place where the sea and the sky meet in the distance is like the end of the world.
The two figures, like frogs imprisoned in a small corner, suddenly saw the vast world, holding their breath at the same time.
In terms of scenery alone, it looks much better than the place where the two landed.
"Miss, let me make some marks here."
But neither the White Pillow nor Hua Mu said they would move positions, one was because the two had spent a lot of energy there to establish a temporary settlement, and the other was also because of distrust of the strange environment.
"Well, have lunch here at noon, you take me to find some mosquito repellent, and then see if there is anything to eat."
Hua Mu has no interest in exploring the island from beginning to end. In her subconscious mind, the more you know the island, the less likely it is to go back.
Whether it is a mosquito repellent plant or a spice, the biggest characteristic is the unique aroma. For sentinels, even if they don't know these plants at all, finding them will be more effective.
White Pillow soon found a bush of wild mint at the junction of the lawn and the rainforest.
Hua Mu thought she would find any herbal medicine. She didn't expect it to be mint grass. She picked a piece and chewed it without thinking. Because she didn't brush her teeth for many days, she felt that her mouth was stinky!
The white pillow occasionally chews the burnt charcoal to keep the mouth clean, but Huamu can't stand it. No matter how down she is, she won't eat that dark thing!
Seeing Huamu eating and playing, Bai Zhen didn't plan to take medicine on her own. She chewed the mint leaves and rubbed them on her reddish skin.
The cool sensation dispelled some itchiness, Hua Mu comfortedly exhaled, and was attracted by a tall shrub next to him.
The shrub has long pendulous branches, oval leaves, and sharp spines on the leaf axils.
After Hua Mu's confirmation again and again, he couldn't help feeling excited.
"White pillow, hurry up, fold this branch down."
Bai Zhen didn't know what Hua Mu had thought of again. Bai Yi Bai Shun was like her, and naturally he would not question this trivial matter.
She quickly cut off a small branch of tree, and then subconsciously sniffed it under her nose.
Hua Mu knew that she had a keen sense of smell, "How is it going? Is there a mint fragrance?"
Not only has mint fragrance, but also slightly sweet fruit fragrance.
"Miss, this is a good thing."
Hua Mu certainly knows that it is a good thing! Some of her natural friends have strongly recommended this Miswak natural toothbrush to her, but she is too lazy to give up the electric toothbrush!
The author has something to say: Neither the cultivation of coconut trees nor the Miswak toothbrushes are mouthless.
