On the morning of August 2nd, Chen Zhou awoke from his bedroom with a slight trace of alcohol.
The images in his mind still lingered on the clear liquor he poured into his cup before going to sleep last night. He scratched his tousled hair, thinking he should find time to get a haircut, and hurriedly got up from the bed.
Today is the day for a long journey, there's no delay.
He washed his face with cool water, carefully squeezed a bit of toothpaste onto a homemade small brush to brush his teeth, and began packing his gear.
This trip would be much more comfortable than the last time he went out.
Besides his hiking backpack, he also brought along a large sunshade umbrella that came with the fishing toolbox, and a sleeping bag.
Though it's still the dry season, the rainy season is approaching, with the sky increasingly clouded, and occasionally a heavy damp wind blowing in from the sea.
