i have a super island

Chapter 178 Porcelain Fragments
In the cave, Li Qingman took over Song Zhixi's job of preparing dinner.

Song Zhixi came to the beach alone, carrying a small clay pot with him, searching for sea salt crystals in those ditches.

I have to say that life on the island has really become much more convenient after having pottery. In the past, there was nothing like sea salt to hold it. If it was placed outside, it would be easily exposed to moisture. It's not too convenient to cover it up.

As the sun sets, Song Zhixi, who is wearing white T-jeans, walks on the beach. The golden sunlight seems to penetrate her delicate skin. Occasionally, a gust of sea breeze blows, messing up her long black hair, leaving her behind on the beach. A series of shallow footprints, this picture is as beautiful as an oil painting.

While searching for sea salt crystals, Song Zhixi was also cautiously alert to changes in the surroundings, keeping an eye out for giant crocodiles that might rush out of the water, and trying to stay as far away from the sea as possible.

There is no way, that big alligator is like a ghost that can hide anywhere, and it may rush out at any time when you let down your vigilance.

Although it is very dangerous to come to the beach alone, you can't stop going out because of the danger. Now four people need a lot of supplies every day to survive on the island, especially salt is indispensable, so Song Zhixi had to Come to the beach.

As he was walking, he suddenly saw a dazzling light shooting from the beach in front of him.

Although I don't know what's in the beach in front of me, but it must be something like metal, only in this way can the sun's rays be reflected.

Song Zhixi walked quickly all the way to the place where the light came from just now, and when he looked down, he made a sound of surprise, and saw that what was half buried in the sand was not a piece of metal, but a piece of broken porcelain.

porcelain?

How could there be porcelain on the island?

In order to confirm further, Song Zhixi bent down and picked up the fragment, held it in his hand and examined it carefully several times, and he could confirm without a doubt that it was indeed porcelain, and that the glazed surface of the porcelain was quite bright, and there were exquisite patterns on it pattern.

But this is too strange. With the current firing technology on the island, only the simplest pottery can be made, and it is impossible to make such porcelain.

The firing conditions of porcelain are much harsher than that of pottery. Among other things, there is a huge difference in the temperature required for firing the two. It is impossible to fire porcelain under the conditions of the island.

Then the question was placed in front of Song Zhixi, where did this exquisite porcelain come from?
She couldn't figure out this question for a while, so she decided to take this piece of porcelain back to the cave, and let Fang Fang and Li Qingman look at it together, maybe they could find the answer to the question.

Today's trip to search for sea salt was not very good, only a little bit of sea salt crystals were picked up, but the accidental discovery of porcelain was Song Zhixi's biggest harvest.

At this time, the setting sun was about to fall below the sea level, Song Zhixi packed up and returned to the cave from the beach.

Back in the cave, Li Qingman's dinner was ready.

Fang Fang and A Yue had already finished their work for the day, and went back to the cave to wait for Song Zhixi to come back to have dinner together.

"smell good."

Entering the cave, Song Zhixi inhaled vigorously, the air was filled with the fragrance of boiled cassava.

Li Qingman greeted warmly: "Come and eat, everyone is waiting for you to come back, how about it, the dinner I made is not bad."

"Yeah, it already smells delicious, and it must taste even more delicious." Song Zhixi nodded repeatedly.

Fang Fang held his stomach and shouted: "Yes, when you come back, A Yue and I's stomachs are already growling with hunger."

Song Zhixi blushed, and said apologetically: "I'm really sorry, I came back late because I encountered something, in fact, you don't have to wait for me, you can eat first."

"What did you encounter?"

The expressions of Li Qingman and Fang Yuan tightened at the same time.

Now everyone treats that big crocodile like a shadow of a snake, and the grass and trees are like soldiers, and the slightest disturbance will make people nervous.

Song Zhixi shook his head and said, "It's not that I met a crocodile, but another matter."

As he spoke, he took out the piece of porcelain that he had just picked up on the beach.

Seeing the shards of porcelain that Song Zhixi took out, Fang Fang and Li Qingman's mouths opened wide at the same time.

"This is...porcelain?" Li Qingman was surprised.

"Where did you get it?" Equation was also surprised.

Song Zhixi said truthfully: "I found it when I was picking up sea salt on the beach."

Li Qingman rested his chin with his hand, tapped his index finger on his cheek, and said, "It shouldn't be, I remember that we have never fired porcelain."

Fang Fang took the piece of porcelain from Song Zhixi's hand, and looked at it carefully. There were exquisite cyan patterns on it, and he knew at a glance that this piece of porcelain was definitely not ordinary.

"A Yue, is this from your boat?"

Since it is not something from the island, the first thing Fang Fang thinks of is probably that it was brought by Ayue's fishing boat and scattered on the beach unintentionally.

A Yue looked at the unfamiliar piece of porcelain and kept shaking his head.

"That's weird. It wasn't fired on the island, nor was it brought on the Ayue boat. Where did it come from?" Li Qingman muttered softly.

"I also found it strange, so I brought this piece of porcelain back, maybe you can know its origin." Song Zhixi said.

Looking at this piece of porcelain, Fang Fang suddenly seemed to see something. The patterns on the porcelain seemed to be blue patterns, which meant that this porcelain belonged to blue and white porcelain. Where did blue and white porcelain come from on an isolated island in the ocean?

"This is very likely to be blue and white porcelain."

"How could this kind of thing appear here?" Li Qingman frowned.

"It's not impossible. I suddenly thought of something."

"What did you think of?"

Fang Fang said: "Back then, on the Maritime Silk Road, many merchant ships at sea transported tea, silk, and porcelain from China to every corner of the world."

Li Qingman opened his eyes wide and said, "You mean, this piece of porcelain probably came from a merchant ship that went back and forth on the Maritime Silk Road?"

"That's right!"

"But where is the merchant ship, and how did the porcelain on it land on this island?" Li Qingman was already confused by the words of the equation.

Fang Fang showed a confident smile and said, "Aren't merchant ships ready?"

Li Qingman suddenly woke up and understood what the equation said about the merchant ship, wasn't it just the old three-masted sailing ship stranded on the coral reef.

"You mean the shipwreck?"

"It's that ship, and this piece of china that washed up on the beach probably came out of that shipwreck."
