At the beginning, the other girls didn’t know how Zhang Liu was going to make the mud, so they could only watch.
But after watching him shave a whole taro to complete the demonstration.
The girls who also realized that this method was feasible formed pairs and rolled up their sleeves to help out.
One person folds the banana leaf into a funnel shape to catch the scraped taro paste.
The other method is to rub the surface of the taro continuously with a small piece of metal.
With the help of the girls, Zhang Liu's progress in making egg yolk fruit taro paste has improved by leaps and bounds.
The small clay basin was soon filled with most of the food.
At present, the girls have begun to process the egg yolk fruit for subsequent seasoning.
He was holding a branch in his hand and stirring vigorously in a small clay basin to prevent the taro paste from sticking to the bottom of the pot.
Time passed minute by minute, and the raw taro paste in the small clay bowl with pond water was still sticky but silky.
But as the starch in it is gradually cooked, the silky state begins to disappear.
When the taro paste had almost become semi-fluid, Zhang Liu took the small clay basin off the fire.
He also quickly stopped Xiang Wanying who was about to add the egg yolk fruit puree directly.
Concentrating fully and not daring to slack off for a moment, he continued to vigorously stir the already thick taro paste.
The small clay pot has residual heat!
In order to make delicious food, Zhang Liu dared not slack off at all.
Chapter 305: Su Yan, who really wants to sleep (Monthly ticket plus chapter 21)
Zhang Liu kept stirring the taro paste until it turned from hot to warm before he stopped.
Then, dripping with sweat, he said to Xiang Wanying who was wiping the sweat off his forehead, "You can add it now."
"Okay! Watch me next!"
Xiang Wanying nodded and poured the egg yolk fruit puree into the cooked taro puree. The small clay basin, which was originally only half full, was suddenly full.
Then she took the wooden stick from Zhang Liu's hand and continued to stir it.
After the golden egg yolk puree and the slightly gray taro puree are completely mixed, the color is not very friendly to the appetite...
Silently looking at the pot of egg yolk, taro puree in front of me that seemed to be created by magical alchemy.
The girls' emotions turned from anticipation to silence.
As the "inventor", Zhang Liu was also a little embarrassed, but he naturally didn't mind being a taster.
But there is one frustrating problem.
That was after the intrigue over pine needle tea.
Zhang Liu didn't think that the girls would believe what he said was delicious...
"I'll try!"
In the end, Anya was the first to pry up a piece of dough with chopsticks and put it into her mouth.
Feeling the sweetness of the fruit in her mouth, her eyes lit up, and she quickly swallowed the food in her mouth and said, "It tastes a bit bad, I'll try it for everyone..."
When Anya stretched out her chopsticks again, the anticipation on her face could no longer be concealed.
Seeing her reaction, the other girls immediately understood.
"Don't even think about snatching it!" Anya, who was about to finish half the basin with her second chopstick, was stopped by Xiang Wanying and Qin Ruoyan.
Later, at Qin Ruoshuang's suggestion, everyone folded banana leaves into funnel shapes to serve as rice bowls and divided up roughly the same amount of food.
The sticky texture combined with the sweetness of the egg yolk fruit is really good overall, but the appearance is a little bit lacking.
After lunch, everyone started their afternoon plans.
When they were going down the mountain just now, Zhang Liu and Xiang Wanying went to the wild boar carcass to check.
The fire burned very well.
Although the bones were not burned and not fully burned, a pile of indescribable stuff was left in its place.
It was mixed with unburned firewood, wild boar bones, charcoal, and whitened soil...
But generally speaking, those disgusting and smelly liquids have been evaporated in the fire, and there will no longer be any smell that bothers people when they go up the mountain.
Because of its outstanding deodorizing effect.
So the two of them were too lazy to carry out the planned burial work and went straight down the mountain.
The disappearance of the wild boar corpse means that the girls can go up and collect taro, but for now, Zhang Liu also plans to move the shelter here.
In his plan, the natural taro forest and waterfall pool on the top of the mountain are an indispensable part of his future living and working in peace and contentment.
They represent the last guarantee of food and water.
Therefore, it is also necessary to reserve a shelter that can guarantee overnight stay in advance.
"Hmm..." After walking among the dead trees and rotten wood and taking a look, Zhang Liu thought for a moment and then said, "I think at least three people are needed..."
Having built many shelters, he has some experience. If he wants to build this shelter by himself, it will take at least two or three days.
This is also based on the assumption that there is no problem with subsequent food.
But if there were three girls helping to carry the wood and tying banana leaves to the slope, it would only take half a day.
"Why don't I, Lan Yueting, and Gu Qingrou stay and help?"
After a slight hesitation, Xiang Wanying was the first to say who she had in mind.
She didn’t pick it randomly.
Instead, he chose a few relatively strong girls.
After all, the upcoming job is to carry wood, which requires a certain amount of physical strength.
As for Su Yan and Anya, they are both top-notch among the girls in terms of physical strength.
However, they also have to undertake the task of providing safety protection during the taro harvesting and cannot be transferred at will.
"it is good!"
"Ok!"
Lan Yueting and Gu Qingrou had no objection to Xiang Wanying's proposal. They nodded and agreed.
After completing the division of labor, the remaining few people prepared to go to the top of the mountain with four sheets of curtain cloth. They planned to get more taro before coming down.
For safety reasons, Zhang Liu also asked Anya and Su Yan to carry a machete and a bow and arrow with them.
He also repeatedly reminded them that unless it was absolutely necessary, they must not provoke any wild boars they might encounter.
Even if a conflict occurs, the priority is to escape and not to continue fighting.
After Su Yan, Anya, Qin Ruoyan, Qin Ruoshuang and Xiang Lingying behind them all nodded seriously to show that they understood, he felt relieved to let the five people go up.
Then Zhang Liu focused all his attention on how to build a new shelter.
"My idea is to first dismantle the roof next to the pool, then start a fire and burn all these rotten wood." Under the gaze of Xiang Wanying and the others, Zhang Liu picked up a piece of rotten wood that looked like soft mud mixed with wood fibers, and then complained, "It feels so disgusting..."
The feel of this thing reminded him of the burnt wild boar carcass.
If Zhang Liu didn't want to continue using two dry trees as natural supports to reduce the workload, he really wanted to just set this place on fire.
Next to him, Xiang Wanying also showed a slightly disgusted expression on her face.
Just like Zhang Liu, when she looked at the wood that looked like rotten mud, she was also reminded of the rotten wild boar corpse, so she was secretly disgusted.
Zhang Liu's suggestion was unanimously recognized by the three girls present.
While he was rubbing the muddy wood off his hands, the roof of the shelter next to the pool had been opened by Lan Yueting and Xiang Wanying.
Xiang Wanying was helping out on the side to prevent the ceiling from collapsing suddenly. Seeing the three girls struggling to work, Zhang Liu simply washed his hands and hurried over to help.
More than ten minutes later, a group of four people, including one man and three women, lifted up the roof of the shelter and took it down, placing it on an open ground.
The first calculation step is completed.
The next step is the second plan, clearing the wood on the ground and the surrounding guardrails.
Zhang Liu was responsible for carrying the rotten wood that felt like mud back and forth and throwing them into the fire that had been moved to the empty rocky area.
The other three girls dismantled the guardrails and other items, which will become guardrails and supports for the new shelter.
It was night time when Anya, Suyan and five others dug up a large pile of taro, washed it in the river, and returned to the shelter next to the waterfall together.
They found that the entire shelter by the waterfall had completely changed.
As the one who proposed the idea of relocating the shelter, Su Yan stared blankly at the shelter in front of her, which completely met her expectations, with a look of deep surprise in her eyes.
She couldn't wait to feel what it was like to sleep in it.
..............................................................................
Dividing line, author's words.
I can only write four chapters today. My head is a little dizzy and I can’t stand staying up late.
Drinking coffee doesn't help.
So I can only go to sleep first.
Then tomorrow I will try my best to finish writing 12,000 words, which is a basic chapter of 6,000 words, and an additional 6,000 words for monthly tickets.
I'm really sorry, everyone. The company has been very busy recently. As an employee, I can only be played around by capital.
Chapter 306: Failed to get it out...
During the construction of the shelter, Zhang Liu made full use of the two dead trees.
The branches that extended about two and a half meters from the tree trunk were just enough to firmly install the shelter roof, which was about five meters long and four meters wide.
The top is two and a half meters from the ground, while the bottom is between one and two meters from the ground.
This distance cannot be calculated accurately, Zhang Liu just made a rough estimate based on his height.
The most direct benefit of building the ceiling like this is that people inside no longer need to crawl out.
In order to ensure the heat reflection effect, Zhang Liu installed walls made of banana leaves on the sides of the ceiling, and thickened the ceiling's covering layer. He used banana leaves and thin vines to wrap and cover the ceiling.
In this way, once you're sitting inside, the only source of sound is directly in front of the large opening.
The sound of the waterfall behind me was directly removed by more than 60%.
And judging from the four sides and ceiling where no light can be seen, the warmth and windproof effects are definitely good.
If it were just that, Su Yan wouldn't be so surprised and excited.
What really excited her were the five beds located under the shelter.
Only those who have slept on the ground will understand how it feels to lie in bed and sleep off the ground.
The cold ground will absorb all the heat in your body like a vampire.
The five beds were arranged in a one-two-two pattern from the outside to the inside, and one of them had rattan hung on the tree on both sides, forming a huge hammock.
"I want to sleep in the hammock!" After Anya saw this, she jumped directly into the hammock and lay down, then said, "Who wants to sleep with me!"
Looking at Anya's cute behavior, everyone couldn't help laughing for a moment.
Zhang Liu was going to sleep alone in the outermost hammock and give the remaining four to the girls. This way, even if something happened at night, he could just get up and react.
"You're back..." Just when Su Yan was a little moved by Anya's noise and wanted to lie down on the hammock to try it out.
Lan Yueting's voice came from the side.
She, Xiang Wanying and Gu Qingrou were washing their bodies in the pool.
The price of being busy for an entire afternoon was that their whole bodies were drenched in sweat, so after threatening Zhang Liu, "Never, ever, ever peek," the three girls took off their clothes and walked into the pool in their underwear.
Gu Qingrou and Xiang Wanying are still in the pool.
Lan Yueting had already stood up first. After quickly rubbing every part of her body with her hands, her target was Zhang Liu on the shore.
You have to show off your physique advantage and hit a straight ball!
