After leaving the place that was like an illusion, Jiang Fan immediately led the surrounding people back to the golden coast they had just been at.
Compared to that so-called paradise, this place was better.
When Jiang Fan returned to the vicinity of the golden coast, he sighed deeply.
It seemed that Jiang Fan had realized that this place was not a safe zone at all, but rather a place with a very high risk factor.
Although no danger had been encountered around the golden coast so far, too many dangers had already arisen from this place.
"We must find an opportunity to leave here quickly, but we haven't found any direction yet."
Jiang Fan couldn't help but lament. Yao, standing beside him, also realized the seriousness of the problem and nodded slightly.
"That's right, what should we do now?"
Hearing Yao's question, Jiang Fan was a little unable to answer.
As of now, Jiang Fan didn't know how to handle the current situation.
If they wanted to leave this golden coast, they would need at least a boat that could allow them to drift at sea for a long time.
As for drinking water, there was no problem. With Zhou Niannian's superb chemistry knowledge, she could purify seawater.
As long as she could purify it, it wouldn't be a problem for her. As for food, it could be easily solved by fishing or catching fish at sea.
If all else failed, they could let Zhou Niannian use her rainbow spray again.
Wouldn't the fish then eagerly take the bait? Therefore, the biggest problem they were currently facing was finding a ship capable of long-distance voyages.
Although they could usually build small boats to sail at sea, these small boats were mostly unable to withstand large waves. If the waves were slightly stronger, their small boats would be directly shattered.
"Never mind, let's fill our stomachs first, then recover our strength, and tomorrow we can split up to search for an exit."
Jiang Fan had no other options at the moment, and this was all he could do.
The others understood Jiang Fan's helplessness upon hearing this. If they didn't do this, there was nothing else they could do.
"But do we still need to tie these ropes around us? I feel like they are no longer necessary."
Zhou Niannian couldn't help but say to Jiang Fan. She felt that being tied up with these vines was too troublesome, and it also made it inconvenient for them to move when they were all tied together.
Jiang Fan glanced at the vines on everyone.
Just as he was about to untie them, he seemed to think of something and quickly shook his head.
"It's not necessary. Let's keep these things on us for now. I'm worried we might encounter some danger later, so it's safer for us to stay together."
Jiang Fan was already wary of what Dai Xiaomei had experienced.
Facing their predicament, Jiang Fan knew that if he easily untied these vines, he didn't know who the next person to get hurt would be.
And the next injury might not be so simple.
They might even lose their lives.
After Jiang Fan said this, Zhou Niannian looked helpless. She felt very uncomfortable with the vines restricting her movements.
However, since Jiang Fan had already said so, Zhou Niannian found it difficult to refute him.
After they caught a lot of fish, they immediately filled their stomachs. For water, they still chose coconuts.
Although they drank this water every day, they did not feel tired of it, because coconut water was not greasy and was very thirst-quenching. Why not?
It was better than the high-mineral content water from the sea.
If it were not purified, drinking this water would be unbearable for their bodies.
Moreover, by drinking something with such high salt content, they could face the risk of dehydration at any time.
"Alright, it's getting late. We'd better not act rashly at night. Let's go back to our tents to rest. Tomorrow morning, we'll set out together to see if there are any clues around."
Currently, Jiang Fan had no intention of going out to find any clues at night.
Although there were seven moons at night, which were very bright, it was too insecure for their safety.
If they got separated easily in the dark night, it would be very difficult to find each other again, just like when Dai Xiaomei disappeared.
Even though Dai Xiaomei's disappearance was only for one night, it took them a whole day to search.
The companions around also felt that Jiang Fan's words were very reasonable.
After all, if things continued like this, all of them would run into trouble.
"Okay, should we still untie our ropes? Anyway, the rope is long enough, I'll be the one to stand guard outside."
Yao, afraid that Dai Xiaomei would get lost again, volunteered to provide cover outside the tent.
But Jiang Fan slowly shook his head.
"It's not necessary. As long as we tie a rope at the entrance of the tent, we can easily know if something is trying to invade us."
"Our most important task now is to recover our strength, find the exit quickly tomorrow, and head to the next location."
Yao quickly nodded and returned to the tent.
Indeed, the ropes made their movements very inconvenient, but fortunately, the ropes were quite long.
When night fell, the group heard no unusual sounds from the rope tied outside the tent.
The next morning, the sun rose and shone on Dai Xiaomei and Zhou Niannian's faces.
The two girls woke up early.
Because of what Dai Xiaomei had encountered, she couldn't sleep for long. She was afraid of encountering danger again.
So, after falling asleep, she didn't dare to sleep too soundly and maintained a certain level of alertness.
Fortunately, nothing unusual was found throughout the night.
"That was close. Fortunately, none of us encountered any problems today. This feeling is really good."
