He didn't know what an emperor grouper was; he just thought the fish was pretty and had very vibrant colors.

"Once we get to the island, we'll stew it, and you'll know how delicious it is."

After drifting at sea for three days and fishing for three days, they finally got a close look at the island they were going to land on.

It's much bigger than they thought.

"Jiang Yi, do you have connections in higher places?"

"There are waves, but I can't hear them clearly."

"The ship is docked here, let's go take a look."

The boat cannot be retrieved yet; if someone is involved, she will try to silence them, and she doesn't want to kill indiscriminately.

They carefully made their way onto the island. A gentle sea breeze blew by, carrying a slightly salty taste, and all around was quiet.

"Xiao Ning, it seems like no one's here."

At the very least, he didn't hear any loud noise.

Xia Ning relaxed a little. After walking through most of the island, she found no trace of humans, confirming that it was indeed a deserted island.

"Go and take the boat back, let's live by the sea."

This island is rich in vegetation, including a large mangrove forest, so there should be plenty of crabs. She even thought she saw a few chicken feathers, and guessed there were pheasants too. Her only disappointment was that she didn't see any coconut trees.

The wind is strong at the beach, making the nights especially comfortable. And these past few days, she seems to have gotten used to falling asleep to the sound of the waves.

Jiang Yi didn't care where he slept, but being by the sea made it much easier for them to go fishing and gathering seafood.

After putting away the boat, they released two wolves. "Jiang Yi, shouldn't we take them to the deep mountains and trick them into bringing back two wives?"

These two kids are already of marriageable age. Xia Ning sighed at how fast time flies.

"How about we go to the neighboring country and take a look, or have that guy surnamed Zhao get us a couple of female wolves? Anyway, he has plenty of men, we can go find them."

"That's true, leave him the contact information next time you make a transaction."

Zhao Yunpeng, far away in Haicheng, sneezed. It couldn't possibly be from catching a cold today. Could someone be thinking about him? Who could it be? A celestial being?

He also misses the immortals very much!

The resources around the island were far richer than where they had lived before. After the tide receded, the first thing Xia Ning could see was giant clams everywhere.

This thing used to be eaten so much that it became a protected species. Nowadays, people don't really like eating shellfish; they prefer fish.

Since she was already here, and it had become such a plague, she decided to deal with it. She shoveled away the larger, more visible specimens into her spatial storage.

She used to watch wilderness survival shows and saw people eat this food countless times. She knew that the bigger the food, the better it tasted, and the meat was never tough, especially the scallops inside.

While collecting seashells, various fish passed by my feet, and any that caught my eye went into my space.

"Wow, a glowing salamander!" I can't believe there are these things here!

It's huge, bigger than her palm! This snail is incredibly fresh; it's delicious in noodles or soup!

I'm rich! I'm rich! It's so great to be in a deserted place!

"Xiao Ning, look what I caught?"

Jiang Yi, who had just been to the mangrove forest, shouted at her. She walked back and exclaimed, "So big?"

Is this blue crab about to become a spirit?

"Hmm, one must weigh at least seven or eight pounds. Is it edible?"

"Yes, absolutely!"

"There's another kind of crab in the cracks of the rocks, it's also very big, this is it."

"This is delicious too!" It looks a bit like a bread crab, but it's not a bread crab. Just by looking at its powerful claws, you know it must be delicious.

"The snails near this island are especially large. We'll have snail noodles with spicy crab for dinner."

"it is good!"

The stove was also on the beach, in front of the wooden house. Jiang Yi had built a large shed, and since they had bricks, building a stove wasn't difficult.

"Let me tell you, don't always complain about their hard shells and little meat. In a few years, the less meat they have, the more expensive they will be." These snails alone cost over a thousand yuan, and the same goes for fish. A single farmed grouper can cost several hundred yuan. As for wild ones, there are no wild ones at all; it's all a scam.

The first two years after I transmigrated were even worse. I dared not eat wild animals, and the animals living nearby had all mutated.

"Are they out of their minds?"

The less meat there is, the more expensive it is—isn't that just making people ripped off? What an idiot!

Xia Ning: ……

Dinner: Steamed grouper, whelk, giant clam soup, spicy crab with a strong flavor, braised pork, and stir-fried green beans.

Staple food: White rice.

Sitting on a chair by the sea, enjoying the sea breeze, she first took a big gulp of soup—it was incredibly delicious!

The snail meat was crisp and chewy, the scallops were sweet and fresh, and the seafood was incredibly tender. Then look at Jiang Yi, he's only picking at spicy crab or braised pork—so tacky it couldn't be more common.

If this hadn't been done this way, he probably wouldn't have eaten the crab.

Wild boars can't eat fine food, no matter how long they've been trained, they're still like that.

No way, it's all hers. I wonder if she'll get gout from all this eating and drinking.

"Ouch..."

Hey, you've been out having fun all day, and now you're finally going home!

"They brought something back, I'm going to take a look."

Going hunting?

Xia Ning went closer and saw a small wild boar and two chickens, both of which were dead beyond recognition.

These two are amazing! They found food for themselves as soon as they came out; they're not just freeloading.

"Xiao Ning, put it away, it's hot."

"Hmm. Let's feed them the two chickens." Chickens alone wouldn't be enough, so she took out four geese to make do. She'd also give them some fruit later, which should be enough.

A cool breeze was blowing, and the environment was so beautiful. "Jiang Yi, are you really not going to try it? This fish is absolutely delicious."

We have so much seafood, it's no fun eating it all by myself, you have to keep me company. The more you eat, the more you'll discover how delicious it is!

She used to avoid eating raw food, but after trying it a few times, she couldn't resist.

Jiang Yi looked at her and asked, "Should I stay with you?" That seemed like a good idea.

"I eat!"

I ladled out a big bowl of soup, took a big sip, and hmm, it didn't seem too bad.

"not bad."

Hearing him say it was alright, Xia Ning smiled and her eyes crinkled. "I told you, this soup is so delicious it'll make your tongue tingle!"

"Yeah, delicious!"

Seeing her smile at him, he felt that the fish in front of him was not bad either, just as she said, very tender, but it seemed not as tender as her face.

Looking at the person opposite him, before he knew it, he had finished all the seafood in front of him, and he was still a little unsatisfied.

Xiao Ning's face, hmm, it's quite appetizing.

"its not bad, right?"

"It's very good. We'll have seafood again tomorrow."

Xia Ning was very happy; good food should be shared with someone.

After dinner, she took a walk and then lay down on two beds under the shed. Enjoying the sea breeze, she felt so comfortable that she didn't want to move.

"Jiang Yi, make the shed bigger tomorrow so we can sleep outside and come inside when the sun comes out."

"Okay, I also saw several fruit trees on the island today. Go take a look tomorrow and see if there are any you like. There are also a few banana trees, but the fruit is still green, so we'll have to wait a bit longer."

Do you know what kind of fruit it is?

"One looks like an orange, but I don't recognize the others."

"Alright, let's explore the island thoroughly tomorrow."

If you want to explore this island properly, it would probably take a whole day, and you still might not be able to see everything.

It's not small, it's really not small!
