Desert Island Girl (Pure Lily) - Chapter 25

Having drunk some soup, Jiang Ning soon fell back into sleep—her illness was simply too severe.

After ensuring she finished the soup, Mu Xiaoyang and the other girls began to eat.

To be honest, that poor fish with its head crushed by Mu Xiaoyang was truly huge!

Bai Niao and the others ate until they were stuffed, barely finishing the fish soup.

Mu Xiaoyang didn’t dare eat too much—she still had to go find the life-saving houttuynia cordata. Eating too much and getting appendicitis would mean her own doom.

After finishing the soup and resting briefly, Mu Xiaoyang changed into a camouflage overalls jumpsuit found with the tent, put on long boots, slung a small backpack over her shoulder, and packed some candy, biscuits, a lighter, a tactical flashlight, a dagger, water, and other supplies, preparing to head to the other side of the mountain to search for houttuynia cordata.

Watching Mu Xiaoyang fully equipped, the three girls said nothing, only silently gazing at her.

“…”

Also silent, Mu Xiaoyang tightened her backpack straps. She glanced at the unconscious Jiang Ning, then looked at Lin Tingting, Yi Yun, and Bai Niao one by one.

She nodded solemnly to them, then turned and walked out of the tent.

Following her out, the girls watched as Mu Xiaoyang gradually disappeared into the depths of the forest, her long hair swaying slightly, her back looking desolate and lonely…

…

As the saying goes, “You can see the mountain, but you’ll die running to it.”

Mu Xiaoyang walked through the forest toward the mountain for over half an hour, yet she still hadn’t reached its base.

My goodness… was this island really this big?

She had planned to return before dark, but after nearly an hour, she hadn’t even reached the mountain’s foot…

Of course, during this time, Mu Xiaoyang wasn’t just hurrying along—she also carefully checked the riverbanks and shady, damp areas for houttuynia cordata.

Sadly, among the many green plants, she didn’t find the distinctive white flowers of houttuynia cordata.

Moving forward slowly, as the mountain loomed larger in her eyes, Mu Xiaoyang finally reached the forest’s edge.

Perhaps because there were no trees to block it, the wind grew stronger the moment she stepped out of the forest!

Dark clouds shifted unpredictably under the wind’s force, truly a storm brewing!

The sky darkened further, almost entirely black, as if daytime had turned to night in an instant.

Mu Xiaoyang saw the fierce wind raging outside the forest! Many trees shook their branches wildly!

Some thinner trees bent their entire trunks, bowing uniformly in one direction, while countless leaves and debris sped through the air!

Mu Xiaoyang’s long hair danced chaotically, her ears filled with the “whooshing” sound of swaying leaves.

Damn it! The rain was coming!

Hurrying toward the mountain’s base, Mu Xiaoyang looked around as she ran, feeling a sense of relief: Thank goodness their tent was set up in the forest. If it were here, it might have been blown down by now.

Reaching the mountain’s base, the wind finally eased a bit.

Fixing her hair, Mu Xiaoyang let out a soft breath.

She sat on a rock, eating two biscuits and drinking some water to regain her strength.

After a few sips of water, a faint urge to pee came from her lower abdomen.

Glancing around instinctively, Mu Xiaoyang quickly took off her pants to relieve herself.

Crouching down, she spread her legs as wide as possible to fully expose her private area—not because she liked exposing herself, but because her full, thick labia tended to press together.

If she didn’t spread her legs, urine would trickle along her labia, dripping messily all over her buttocks.

With no one around, Mu Xiaoyang simply used both hands to pull her labia apart, revealing her entire pink, tender private area.

Her abdomen naturally tensed, the flesh around her urethra and vaginal opening slightly protruding outward.

A clear stream of urine soon shot out from her urethra.

But to Mu Xiaoyang’s frustration, though the urine didn’t splash on her buttocks this time, the strong wind blew it into a crooked line, landing right on her pant leg!

“Tch!”

Quickly lifting her fair, round buttocks to adjust her position, Mu Xiaoyang was full of annoyance: When luck runs dry, drinking water clogs your teeth, farting bruises your heel, and even peeing gets on your pants!

After handling her bodily needs, Mu Xiaoyang fixed her clothes, found an easier path up the mountain, and prepared to continue.

Suddenly! A large raindrop fell without warning, smacking right on Mu Xiaoyang’s head!

Tch! The rain had arrived.

Soon, a torrential downpour fell in slanted sheets like a machine gun firing from the sky!

The drops stung her face painfully—Mu Xiaoyang realized for the first time that rain could hurt this much!

The dense rain curtain combined with the fierce wind made it nearly impossible to breathe!

The world turned white with mist.

Squinting, Mu Xiaoyang picked up a sturdy stick from the ground and leaned on it, beginning a difficult climb up the mountain.

The mountain path was rough and uneven—calling it a path was generous; it was just the less treacherous route Mu Xiaoyang chose.

The rain poured heavily, the entire world echoing with its “pattering” sound.

Her overalls were soon soaked, weighing heavily on her body.

Combined with the wind and rain, Mu Xiaoyang felt every step was a struggle.

The mountain had few plants, only some stubborn weeds and bushes surviving. Leaning on her stick, Mu Xiaoyang climbed slowly, bit by bit.

With the sky pitch-black, she soon lost her sense of time.

She didn’t know how long she climbed until she felt on the verge of collapse.

Finally, the summit came into view!

Mu Xiaoyang’s eyes lit up, like someone spotting dawn!

She shielded her eyes with one hand and pushed toward the summit!

Reaching the top, she could barely stand, her calf muscles twitching like motors.

“Thud!”

Unable to hold on, Mu Xiaoyang felt dizzy and faint.

She relaxed and collapsed onto the summit.

“Huff… huff…”

Lying on her back on the hard ground, Mu Xiaoyang’s chest heaved intensely.

She stared blankly at the dark sky, letting the rain pour over her body.

Quickly pulling a few candies from her backpack and swallowing them whole to boost her sugar levels, Mu Xiaoyang felt her body stiffen!

Lying rigidly on the ground, she rested briefly before slowly propping herself up with the stick.

The area was a large flat expanse. Mu Xiaoyang slowly walked to the cliff’s edge, standing at the highest point since landing, overlooking the entire island for the first time.

The island was indeed vast, now shrouded in misty water due to the rain.

With this mountain as a boundary, it roughly divided the island into two parts, two-thirds and one-third.

Mu Xiaoyang and the others were on the larger section.

But to reach the other side, climbing the mountain wasn’t necessary; one could take a longer route around it.

The other side received less sunlight, with rays only slanting across, so the trees there grew shorter but with denser foliage.

From the summit, the ground was barely visible.

Calling it a “deserted island” meant it was uninhabited, not barren.

On the contrary, the island was almost entirely covered in green, with pale white beaches fringing it like lace.

Due to the heavy rain, Mu Xiaoyang couldn’t see the whole island clearly—it was likely even larger than it appeared!

Through the dense rain curtain, Mu Xiaoyang faintly saw the river they had found earlier, winding like a thin ribbon toward the sea…

Using the river’s position, she roughly estimated the tent’s location.

She couldn’t help but smile faintly: There were the people she cared about…

Thinking of Ning and everyone, Mu Xiaoyang grabbed her stick, wiped the rain from her face, and rallied her spirits!

She prepared to head to the other half of the island to continue searching for houttuynia cordata!
