The supplies are managed by Jing Shu, and even most of what was brought from the South Sea is used by Jing Shu to pay off debts, so she has the most say on how to use these things.
So when she said to eat them, no one objected.
Jing Shu continued, "But now we need to figure out what supplies we brought will be consud directly and which ones are consud more slowly? How long can we last according to the consumption rates? Once we figure it out, we will start consuming the easiest-to-expire food without limit, saving the preservable food for last."
Chu Zhuohua tapped the table, "Now let’s divide the research group into three teams. Youai, we will be responsible for analyzing Dark Energy. Xiao Zhang, take two people with you to test the consumption speed of our supplies. Xiao Wang, you will plan the optimal order for us to use our supplies."
"Okay, ntor."
Wu You’ai: "Got it." He glanced at his cousin and secretly exhaled. Did others not notice the ntor’s little intention?
With all the tasks divided, since they needed to find a way out, Jing Shu then dispatched a Hulk team and an Abdominal Foot Worm team to dig.
Dig everywhere.
Dig wherever, find whatever.
If they could dig out a path to exit, that would be a huge gain.
Otherwise, what would these creatures do here? Just lie around and do nothing? There were already two useless freeloaders, her and Su Malie, lying here...
After finishing the al, Jing Shu sent out the teams. Although they lacked a sense of ti in this dark place without daylight, ti-wise, it was ti to rest, so the teams planned to start resting.
Each departnt left soone for night watch, then returned to the tents to sleep.
Jing Shu and Su Malie lay in the luxurious compartnt of the Hulk.
Jing Shu even took a bath, washing off the sli on her body, and with the Hulk shielding out the green sli outside, she felt like she was finally alive again.
"It’s really tough every day, let’s sleep early, Mary, we have lots to do tomorrow."
Su Malie nodded, "Today was really exciting, don’t you think there won’t be any danger in the stomach..."
Before she could finish, Jing Shu covered her mouth, "Shh, don’t jinx it, those who got lost and the rescue team have been living here peacefully without any dangerous incidents, surely there won’t be any danger just because we arrived?"
Su Malie nodded, "You’re right. Let’s sleep, I’m tired."
"I’m tired too."
...
...
"Are you asleep?"
"No? What ti is it?"
"It’s three in the morning."
Jing Shu and Su Malie both sat up, staring at each other with wide eyes.
"Strange, this place feels odd? Why can’t we sleep?"
"I never have insomnia, there’s definitely sothing wrong."
So Jing Shu opened the Hulk’s door, went out, and discovered the suspicions: Damn, turns out nobody else is asleep either!
"What a coincidence, why aren’t you sleeping?"
"I don’t know, I tried sleeping for a while but couldn’t. I figured it might be insomnia today after coming here."
"I can’t sleep either, I usually fall asleep as soon as I hit the pillow."
In a corner, Tank, seeing that nobody else was asleep, felt hopeful, "Thank goodness, I thought I was terminally ill because I couldn’t sleep, turns out nobody is asleep either."
So, five minutes later, in the eting room.
Everyone’s eyes were wide open.
Yang Yang, with his dark circles, asked, "I’m sure I’ve never had insomnia before, there must be sothing wrong here today. Can the research team figure out why nobody is sleeping?"
Zhen Nantian leaned against the wall, arms crossed, also extrely serious, because not being able to sleep is a significant problem.
This phenonon is truly bizarre.
Jing Shu raised her hand, "Should we ask the original residents who’ve been here for a long ti? When we arrived, I saw them sleeping soundly."
Chu Zhuohua pondered, "Strangely, they didn’t sleep today either, but Jianguo has gone back to the pool to sleep—"
In fact, Jianguo, after eating, was both hungry and sleepy again, so he hurried back to the pool to catch up on sleep, just like before.
So everyone called over representatives from the original residents, Aliang and Ah Shan, their eyes wide open like copper bells, with no sign of sleepiness.
Big Yellow Teeth asked them, "Strange, are you usually this sleepless, or is it that without ti or light underground, you are usually without a sense of ti, just eating when hungry and sleeping when tired?"
Aliang scratched his head, "I don’t know. Before, we had no food at all, just lying in the cave all day; when hungry, we ate sli, otherwise, we slept, felt like sleeping most of the day."
"Yeah, yeah. What happened today? Why can’t we sleep after a full al?" Ah Shan wondered.
Jing Shu keenly interjected, "Is it possible that you all never ate a full al before, so you slept all day, but today after eating so much, you can’t sleep at all?"
These indigenous refugees had worked for a few hours digging the surrounding caves clean and ate for hours, not to ntion how many Insect Cakes they made.
"Hey, you might be onto sothing. Today, each of us ate several large basins, way more than usual; could it be that we can’t sleep because we are too full?" Big Yellow Teeth said.
Chu Zhuohua imdiately had the assistant bring in syringes, "Shall we draw so blood and check everyone’s hormone levels to find out?" He looked at Jing Shu, "Do you want to be the first to go?"
Jing Shu quickly shook her head, "I won’t, I’m afraid of pain. Find soone else. Besides, this is a doctor’s job, can you even test these?"
She wouldn’t dare give a blood sample, having drawn quite a bit of blood before to raise the red earthworms, but now that Dark Energy testing instrunts were becoming more advanced, if Chu Zhuohua discovered sothing from her blood, that would be troubling.
"While I’m not a doctor, I have a general grasp of everything, be it testing humans or objects, it’s almost the sa." Chu Zhuohua seed a bit regretful, so he casually drew blood from a few others.
Jing Shu: "..." What a madman.
So, what to do if nobody can sleep?
What else, just keep working.
Sleep when tired.
Before the eting dispersed, Yang Yang instructed, "Could everyone start recording their al portions, toilet tis and amount, total exercise, and sleep tis? This data is extrely important to help us understand our current confinent and the applications and characteristics of Dark Energy. Then we’ll report them at the daily etings."
"Okay, no problem."
"Understood."
And so, the entire rescue team started running efficiently again, proceeding with the three plans we have now.
