Desert Island Survival Diary

Chapter 130 No.80 One Day, Guidance ([-])

The method described above is called the mud strip injection method, but the requirement is to add the soil to the finely divided hay, step on it and mix it, and then leave it for more than three days.If you have time, the longer the better.

But at this time, I was so excited, I couldn't wait, I was already eager to try, no matter whether what I did would succeed in the end, at least I could get a preliminary understanding of the process.

This method is also very simple to say, that is, dig out a piece of soil, knead it into the bottom of the thing you want to make, then repeatedly knead the mud strips, and slowly cover the mud strips.Then smooth it with your hands, and finally find something to pat.

In this way, after more than an hour of hard work, the first work was completed. This is a small pocket water tank, and it is estimated that it can only hold half a bowl of water.If it can be fired successfully in the future, it would be good to make a bowl for eating. After all, the bowls taken from the boat are very large.

Maybe it’s because a lot of water was added. After the mud embryo is finished, it’s not very firm. After it’s left for a while, it feels a little collapsed.But there are only some, if you don't observe carefully, you can't see it at all.

As long as it dries a little bit, it will definitely not deform. In order to see the first dried mud embryo as soon as possible, I hurried to the lower floor of the tree house and carefully placed this small pocket water tank next to the fire. , so that it can dry up as quickly as possible.

Originally, I wanted to make a few more, but I was stunned when I saw this mud embryo being baked by the high temperature at the edge of the fire.Do you want to turn this mud embryo more?Wouldn't it be better to put it on the other side of the fire?Will it be dry until tomorrow?Will it crack after drying?

Among the countless questions, I just squatted by the fire and just watched. In fact, it was more of my brain that kept asking questions.None of these questions is currently answerable.Just wait!All the answers will be revealed after the mud embryo dries.

Before I knew it, the sky was already dark, the rain was not too heavy, it just fell like this, until just now, the hungry little black rubbed his head against me a few times before waking up, if it hadn’t come to call me, Maybe get drunk for a while.

It was only when I stood up that I felt that my legs were numb from squatting, and I stepped on it hard a few times before recovering.The color of this mud embryo has begun to change.From the dark color at the beginning, it slowly becomes lighter, which is the reason for drying. After it is completely dry, it should turn beige brown as a whole, and it can be fired at that time.Of course, I hope that there will be no cracks when drying, otherwise it will be useless without waiting for firing.

Once I was so fascinated, I forgot to eat. Now I feel hungry. The rice that was sun-dried last time broke when I squeezed it. It is not very delicious to cook rice, but it is really good to cook porridge.With a few chunks of bacon on top it was really good.

Even Xiao Hei ate two bowls, and of course there was lightning after he was full. This little guy was actually called Honey Badger, if he hadn't seen it fighting a big snake with his own eyes.It's really hard for me to associate the cuteness with words such as immortality and difficulty.It seems that when the little guy grows up, he has to be restrained, so as not to cause me any big trouble.

It is worth mentioning that the potatoes, garlic, and things grown from unknown seeds that survived in the small vegetable garden are all growing very well, and it may not take long before they can be harvested.Especially garlic, the green leaves are very tall.It's just a little, of course not enough to eat.But after it matures, dig out its garlic heads and sow them separately. I don't think it will take long before they can be planted in pieces.

In addition, the arrowroot powder I made last time was also very successful. After brewing, even Lightning likes to drink it very much.And the method is super simple. After the water in the pot is boiled, pour the arrowroot powder into it, stir quickly with chopsticks, and add some sugar. Pour out after 1 minute and serve after cooling.

Because it is all starch, the feeling of fullness after eating is still good.If you must describe its appearance, it should be said that it is similar to lotus root noodles in a civilized society.Of course, the thickness can be adjusted by yourself. For example, when Lightning eats, I will add less arrowroot powder.And when I eat it by myself, I add more arrowroot powder.

It's just that when I'm hungry, I don't like sweets very much, so it's good to adjust the taste occasionally.Lightning was a bit picky at the beginning, and when he smelled something other than honey water, he turned his head away. After coaxing and coaxing, he finally tasted it, only to find that it turned out to be a delicacy, and finally gave him arrowroot soup. After drinking it, I did this out of helplessness. After all, honey is limited. I don’t know when it will grow. If I don’t find a substitute in advance, once the honey is gone, I can’t watch it starve to death, right?

I was also looking for new beehives, including in my notebook, but there was no record of bees, let alone beehives.However, there are some weapons manufacturing plans he has prepared, such as stone axes, spears with stones as the tips, and even bows and arrows.

Stone axes don't appeal to me, but spears and bows do!However, this matter cannot be completed in a day or two, and it requires too much time and energy.So you shouldn't even think about crafting tiles until you've fired them.

After all, I still have a fire ax and a pistol. Although I don't have many bullets, at least I don't lack them now.Now it's a safer, stronger house.The coconut tree leaves on the roof should not last long before they will be scrapped.According to the current situation, it should take at most three to six months to replace the roof bedding. Otherwise, the completely dry leaves will definitely become more fragile after being ravaged by wind, rain and sun. It is easy to leak.

The tarpaulin can't be used now, and there are still a few bags of grain that have not been dried. If they don't dry more, these grains are likely to be lost, after all, the humidity here is too high.Fortunately, I have a 24-hour burning fire on the lower floor, which not only smokes away a lot of mosquitoes, but also makes the air inside the tree house drier than outside.

It's getting windy outside.I don't know if there is any water in the shed. The soil pit used to place the termite nest soil is not covered. I hope the rainwater will not fill up too much.Fortunately, it wasn't raining too much outside.

Even if this kind of rain lasts for three to five days, it will not cause water to accumulate in the yard. After all, I have improved the drains in the yard again. Not only have the drains been dug wider, but they have also been dug deeper.Just relying on those small stones, it is impossible to block these drainage channels.

It's very late, I hope to see when I wake up tomorrow, the rain has stopped!
