Chapter 102: The Strange Grass

In the morning, after Xia Muqing woke up, she saw that Jin Chao had already started a fire. There was a pot made of stone on the fire and fish soup was stewing in it. The fragrance of the fish soup quickly attracted Gungun. Without opening its eyes, it walked towards the fire instinctively.

Xia Muqing quickly stopped it so that it didn’t fall into the fire.

“Be careful,” she said, prodding at Gungun’s head.

Looking at their interactions today, Jin Chao smiled and said, “You all woke up at the right time. The fish soup is ready.”

After Xia Muqing thanked him, she took the bowl and chopsticks that were also made of stone.

After breakfast, they walked into the depths of the island to check if there were any tools that could be used. The island wasn’t huge. Yesterday, they had already searched the periphery and there was nothing that could be used. Today, they could only try their luck in the depths.

The two of them scoured the island, but they didn’t find anything useful. The sky suddenly became a little gray, and it looked like it was about to rain.

Seeing a cave nearby, Jin Chao led them there. As soon as they entered, thunder sounded and rain began to fall.

Xia Muqing looked at the sky in a daze in distress. “What should we do? Even if we can make a boat, it wouldn’t withstand the impact of the waves.”

Jin Chao was wiping the short sword that was made of stone. His original short sword had been destroyed when he fought the shark. Hearing Xia Muqing’s words, he said, “We have to act as soon as possible.”

Xia Muqing also knew that the black eagle’s family and the phoenix clan were still waiting for them to rescue them.

Gungun was rolling around in the cave and playing by itself. Suddenly, it was pulled by something and it screamed.

Xia Muqing walked to the entrance of the cave and saw Gungun stuck to the grass on the ground. She tried to pull Gungun but failed.

She reached out and touched the grass. It was sticky, but the grass in the cave was dry. Could this particular grass become sticky when it came into contact with water?

The grass clung tightly to Gungun’s fur and it couldn’t be pulled apart. Xia Muqing didn’t dare to use too much force. Jin Chao walked directly towards them. With a slice of his knife, he cut off Gungun’s fur that was stuck to the grass.

After Gungun was saved, it quickly fled the area with the grass. The grass was covered in a layer of white fur, and Gungun’s back had turned bald.

Although Xia Muqing shouldn’t, she couldn’t help laughing.

Looking at the grass on the ground, she suddenly had an inspiration.

This grass would become sticky when it came into contact with water. Furthermore, it was only effective on fur and it didn’t become adhesive to human skin. If they used this type of grass and fur to build a boat, the adhesion should be enough to withstand the waves in the sea.

She shared her idea with Jin Chao and he agreed too.

They needed a large amount of this particular grass. That wasn’t a problem as there were plenty in the cave. They also needed fur. Where could they find fur?

The two of them shifted their gaze to Gungun. Gungun instantly exploded and tried its best to hide itself.

Xia Muqing chuckled and said, “Don’t worry. Even if I cut away all the fur on you, it won’t be enough.”

She added, “We passed by a small forest today. There are many dandelions there.”

Jin Chao instantly understood what she meant and nodded.

Xia Muqing glanced at the rain outside and felt a lot better. She hoped that the dandelions could withstand the impact of the rain.

The next day, they journeyed to the dandelions early in the morning. They were growing under a giant stone. The rain yesterday had little effect on them.

The two of them collected a basket of dandelions and returned to the cave. They plucked some grass and added water to test the effect. These grass could stick to the dandelions.
