Seabird looked back at him, eyes full of exhaustion and fear. It didn’t fly away, obviously it could feel Ouyang Xiaofeng’s kindness.
“I won’t hurt you, I’m here to help you.” He comforted the seabird softly.
He approached the seabird cautiously, trying to untie the debris trapped in its wings. The seabird seemed to understand his intention and opened its wings slightly to make it easier for him to treat him.
Ouyang Xiaofeng spent some time, carefully cleaning the seabird’s feathers, and slowly untied the branches stuck on the wings. He patted the seabird gently on the head to signal that everything was safe. Gradually, the seabirds can flap their wings and fly.
“Good luck, friend. Hope you have a safe flight,” he said, smiling at the seabird.
Ouyang Xiaofeng felt his stomach growl and he felt hungry. He suddenly remembered that there were a lot of fish on the beach. It would be great if he could grill a fish to satisfy his craving. But the problem now is that he has no source of fire.
He thought for a while and decided to find some dry branches and leaves, hoping to create a fire source through friction. He started searching around and soon found some relatively dry looking branches. He carefully cut off some thin slices with a knife, and then prepared to use friction to try to generate a fire source.
He found a smooth stone, sat down next to a tree, placed the wood chip on the stone, and rubbed it with another stone in his hand. This action requires patience and skill, and he constantly adjusts the angle and intensity of the rubbing. After rubbing for a while, the wood chips began to emit faint smoke.
“Finally…” He secretly breathed a sigh of relief and kept rubbing.
The smoke gradually thickened, and the wood chips gave off a faint red light. Not daring to be careless, he carefully placed the smoked wood chips into a pile of hay and leaves. Soon he saw a bright flame burning in the dry grass.
Ouyang Xiaofeng jumped up happily, found a long branch, put the fish on and started grilling it. The fish is roasting on the fire, giving off a tempting aroma. He watched the flames dancing and the smell of grilled fish filling the air, feeling happy.
“The fragrant fish is really delicious.” He said to himself, waiting for the fish to be cooked.
The fish was grilled deliciously, and Ouyang Xiaofeng felt a little satisfied again. However, he knew clearly that to survive on this mysterious island, he could not just rely on fire sources, but also needed to learn to create fire sources. He decided to study how to drill wood to make fire.
He put the grilled fish aside and took out two pieces of dry wood that he had prepared in advance. He placed one piece on the ground as a base and held the other piece of wood in his hand. He began to try to rub the wood in his hand quickly on the base wood, hoping to generate high temperature through rubbing and ignite the base wood.
Ouyang Xiaofeng’s movements gradually became rhythmic, and he felt the temperature of the wood in his hands rising. He increased the speed of rubbing, and the wood continued to rub against the base, generating obvious heat. His eyes were fixed on the rubbing points of the wood, expecting sparks to appear.
Suddenly, he saw tiny sparks jumping from the wood. His heart was filled with joy. This was the first time he had successfully drilled wood to make fire. He carefully transferred the tiny spark to the haystack. The flames expanded and burned little by little.
Ouyang Xiaofeng watched the flames beating with joy. He knew that this was a great progress in survival. He kept the method of drilling wood to make fire firmly in his mind, believing that this skill would come in handy in the days to come.
As the flames flickered, he thought of his dreams and his family. On this desolate island, he is trying to find a way to survive and become stronger. This is not only a challenge to yourself, but also the pursuit of your dreams.
While studying drilling wood to make fire, Ouyang Xiaofeng accidentally scratched his finger. He felt a sting, but he gritted his teeth and didn’t stop. This little pain was nothing to him.

His determination was stronger than his pain.

He increased the speed of rubbing, eyes widened in concentration. The wood in his hand kept rubbing against the base wood, causing a slight sting from time to time. Suddenly, he saw a small spark jumping out of the wood. At that moment, he felt a sense of victory and fulfillment.
“Successful!” he said happily.
However, at this time, he could no longer notice the pain in his fingers. He carefully transferred the spark to the haystack. The flames expanded little by little, burning and emitting a warm light.
Ouyang Xiaofeng sat next to the fire, and the warm firelight reflected on his face. He felt the power surging in his body, and also felt the joy after the setback. This short-term victory gave him great encouragement, and he became more convinced that as long as he did not give up, he could overcome all difficulties.
The fire was roaring and he began to prepare dinner. He put the prepared food on the fire and cooked it. Under the illumination of the flames, his thoughts began to wander. He recalled his life in the city, that familiar yet unfamiliar world.
“Perhaps this adventure has allowed me to find my truest self.” He said to himself.
The fish next to the fire was slowly cooked, and Ouyang Xiaofeng felt the aroma. He carefully took off the fish. The skin was golden and crispy, and the meat was tender. This was his first hot meal on this mysterious island, and he felt very satisfied.
He picked up the fish, the warm meat in his hands. He looked up at the stars, as if to express his gratitude to this mysterious island.
“Thank you for this land, thank you for this delicious meal.” He said softly.
He took a bite of the fish, and the delicious juice filled his mouth. It tasted delicious. The fish was probably the most delicious thing he had ever eaten. He couldn’t help but close his eyes and enjoy this wonderful taste.
“It’s really delicious.” He exclaimed.
Gradually, he felt that his body was full of energy and his fatigue gradually dissipated. He understood that food not only filled his stomach, but also gave him strength, allowing him to better face the challenges of this mysterious island.
He finished a fish and left some ingredients for tomorrow’s meal. Then he put out the fire, lay down on the ground, and looked up at the stars. He thought of his family, his former dreams, and this strange land full of opportunities.
“Tomorrow will be better, I will definitely find a way out.” He said silently to himself.
Ouyang Xiaofeng returned to his former hometown in his dream, returning to the familiar streets and alleys. The smiling faces and laughter of his family members came like a flood, instantly melting away the loneliness and confusion in his heart. They sat around the dining table, enjoying a sumptuous dinner, and he was intoxicated by the familiar dishes.
“Xiao Feng, come here, eat some of this, your favorite.” Mother smiled and handed over a plate of his favorite dish.
Ouyang Xiaofeng took the plate with a smile, his heart full of happiness and gratitude. He felt the warmth of home and the preciousness of family ties. But he also understood that this was just a dream, a reflection of his longing and longing for home.
The dream gradually faded away, and he woke up again and found that he was still lying on this mysterious island. He looked at the sea in the distance and saw the first glimmer of morning glow. He knew that today was a new beginning.
“I’m going to persevere, no matter what difficulties I encounter.” He said to himself.
He stood up, packed his bags, and prepared to move on. This mysterious island is full of unknowns and challenges, and he is ready. He knew that the world needed him to explore, discover, and move forward bra
