After putting two pieces of curtain cloth outside the shelter to form a "tent" to protect against wind and rain and completing the construction of the shelter, the two began to perform their respective duties.
It was the sixth day since my aunt's aunt came. Her physical condition had recovered quite well. Gu Qingrou was responsible for wearing a raincoat and going to the jungle not far away to collect thicker logs that would be convenient for burning overnight.
As for the wood for the fire, it can be found everywhere. As long as you walk to the outer layer of the jungle, you can easily pick up a large pile of fine dead branches and leaves, but they are relatively damp...
There are also some branches as thick as a little finger.
Qin Ruoyan is currently on the fourth day of her period. Although she does not have dysmenorrhea, her hands and feet still feel cold. She hides under the shelter and starts to make a fire.
Since it was raining outside, the fire had to be made inside the shelter.
In order to prevent the fire from getting too big and burning the curtains, Qin Ruoyan began to use an alloy pot to dig up the extremely wet sand on the ground.
It was still relatively early, and before building the fire pit, she planned to use the small branches and leaves that were very easy to collect around her to burn the ground dry, thus creating a place that was more suitable for herself and Gu Qingrou to spend the night.
In order to prevent the dried ground from being quickly infiltrated, the excavated sand will become a small "waterproof fence".
With the alloy pot as a handy tool, Qin Ruoyan dug very quickly.
In just less than ten minutes, she had piled the sand with the wettest surface around the shelter, piling it up in the middle and letting it fall down on the outside, forming the shape of a small hill.
Although it cannot truly block water 100%, due to the height of the pile, it can still block some of the flowing rainwater.
The next task was to light a fire and dry the place where he and Gu Qingrou would lie overnight...
Although everything around was wet and there was no suitable tinder to be found, he took out a bamboo tube from the package and broke it in half with a metal knife.
Qin Ruoyan solved this problem directly. She only needed to scratch it lightly with the blade, and dry tinder that was very suitable for making a fire would appear.
"Da da da da da da..."
Squatting under the shelter, Qin Ruoyan began to hit the two pieces of pyrite in her hands vigorously. Along with the knocking sounds, tiny sparks kept falling from the knocking points of the pyrite in her hands onto the tinder.
When Gu Qingrou returned with the wood, Qin Ruoyan had successfully burned out a two-meter square dry surface and padded it with curtain cloth.
It's simply creating a comfort zone.
But she also knew that as the rain continued to fall outside.
This simple comfort zone that was set on fire will get wet again sooner or later...
Qin Ruoyan placed the fire in a pit.
Most of the burning branches were sparse and only a few branches were as thick as fingers. The fire inside was controlled to the extent that it just burned a few decimeters outside.
This way, it can provide some heat without touching the curtains.
"This is the only way for now." Turning her head to look at Gu Qingrou who was holding the branch, Qin Ruoyan said, "We have to take turns to keep watch tonight to make sure the fire doesn't go out!"
"Hmm!" Nodding vigorously, Gu Qingrou began to break the pile of branches in her hand, which were as thick as three fingers.
After being stranded on a desert island for so many days, she has matured.
The specific manifestation is that you don’t need to let others speak before you know what to do.
The entrance to the fire is so shallow, and the branches I brought are so thick and big that they obviously can't fit in...
So we have to find a way to make it smaller!
Chapter 436 Qin Ruoyan's Reward Idea (Monthly Ticket Reward Plus Chapter 20)
Qin Ruoyan was also quite satisfied when she noticed the spontaneous actions taken by her teammate Gu Qingrou.
She took out two rabbit legs from the package and planned to reward herself and the other two!
Seeing the rabbit legs, Gu Qingrou knocked on the wood even harder...
When Gu Qingrou and Qin Ruoyan began to prepare to spend the night.
Qin Ruoshuang and Xiang Lingying were standing together in the shed below the cave entrance, taking off their clothes.
It wasn't to do anything weird, but just to wipe each other's bodies.
When the rainy season comes, the cave becomes stuffy and humid.
You will sweat even if you lie still.
Although staying next to the fire can make you feel a little drier, you can still sweat from the heat.
Therefore, wiping the body before going to bed every night became something that Xiang Lingying and Qin Ruoshuang agreed on immediately.
However, before wiping their bodies like this, the two of them also made a lot of preparations.
For example, they used the "rolling stone method" to boil a whole clay tank of hot water and placed it aside for use, and they also built a fire under the large shelter used to keep out the rain to prevent themselves from catching cold.
After everything was fine, Xiang Lingying took off her rabbit skin underwear and Qin Ruoshuang took off her "T-shirt bra".
They looked at each other's bodies.
After the secret comparison, both of them showed a bit of helplessness in their eyes.
Because whether in terms of figure or appearance, both sides are basically the same.
However, Xiang Lingying felt helpless and a little troubled.
Because she knew that the person in front of her had an older sister.
In some cases, one plus one is greater than two.
Xiang Lingying, who had no idea that her head maid had already eaten a bellyful of the food and had successfully laid the foundation for herself and her eldest lady, was still in a state of secret sadness.
But no matter how sad you are, you have to continue to rub shoulders with each other.
"Please." After wiping her body with the curtain cloth, she turned her back to Qin Ruoshuang and said, "Please be a little harder, I feel like I must be very dirty!"
I sweated a lot yesterday and today, which made Xiang Lingying feel a little uncomfortable...
"Don't worry!" Qin Ruoshuang nodded, then she took out the curtain cloth that had been soaked for a long time from a small clay pot filled with hot water, and then wiped it carefully for the other party.
At the same time, in bamboo house No. 1 on the mountainside, Zhang Liu and four girls wearing only underwear sat around the fire.
They are currently studying a very serious problem.
That's how fried noodles are made...
Although we all know that it is fried, the key lies in how to fry it.
Taro powder is really precious, and only eight bamboo tubes have been collected so far.
Although the "semi-automatic taro paste making machine" was still pounding tirelessly, due to the humid climate, all people got were white lumps of wet solid liquid.
Before this, Lan Yueting also tried to fry it directly in a small clay pot.
The result was that the paste got stuck inside and she had to scrub it for a long time before it was clean.
Holding a bamboo tube of taro flour, there is Lan Yueting's case of burnt pot in front.
At this moment, Zhang Liu was struggling with whether he should pour it directly into the small clay pot in front of him that had already been dried up.
He exchanged glances with the four girls around him who also had conflicted expressions.
Then he gritted his teeth and poured half the bamboo tube of taro powder in, thinking that even if it was wasted, only half would be wasted.
Perhaps the taro powder in the bamboo tube was dry enough, so when it was put into the pot, it did not stick directly to the bottom of the pot and then produce a burnt smell.
This made Zhang Liu relax a little.
Then he picked up the wooden spatula he had prepared in advance and began to stir the taro flour in the pot vigorously using the same technique as cooking.
"Huchi..."
"Huchi..."
"Huchi..."
The wooden spatula and the bottom of the clay pot kept rubbing against each other, making noises.
The originally yellow-white taro powder gradually began to turn into a bright yellow color, and there was a scent of starch in the air.
"It seems this method works?" Anya sniffed and said, "It doesn't feel like the smell of burnt food."
"Ok!"
Lan Yueting, who had a psychological trauma about fried noodles because of her previous failure experiences, now felt much more relaxed.
While nodding in response to Anya, she also began to carefully observe the taro flour that Zhang Liu was stir-frying.
“It looks delicious!”
Su Yan sat next to Lan Yueting and spoke in a low voice.
She had this feeling just by taking a look at the golden taro powder.
You will definitely feel comfortable after eating this thing!
This is Su Yan's intuition!
"I want to eat, too!"
After hearing what her best friend said, Anya spoke up and expressed her opinion.
It must be delicious...
This is also Anya's intuition!
Lan Yueting looked at the two little lolis sitting on her left and right.
After blinking slightly, she was a little embarrassed to express her desire to try it too...
Compared to the three people who were wondering whether it tasted good or not and whether they could eat it.
Xiang Wanying was concentrating on looking at the taro flour in the small clay pot.
When I discovered that its overall color changed from golden to dark yellow.
She decisively spoke up to remind Zhang Liu, who was already confused and anxious: "Zhang Liu, it should be almost done!"
"it is good!"
Nodding vigorously, Zhang Liu did not hesitate after hearing Xiang Wanying's reminder.
He simply used two branches to take the small clay pot off the stove and placed it on the ground.
Clay has excellent thermal insulation properties, so even after being taken down like this, its temperature is still incredibly high.
In order to prevent the taro powder from sticking to the pan or burning, Zhang Liu kept stirring the taro powder with the wooden spatula in his hand, but unfortunately the color of the taro powder was still visibly turning black.
Xiang Wanying and others were extremely anxious watching from the side, but they could do nothing because of the scorching temperature of the small clay pot.
As the last trace of golden color faded, a faint "bitter fragrance" replaced the original starch smell and floated in the air.
Compared to the flour used for traditional fried noodles, taro flour is more delicate, so it is easier to overcook.
At this moment, Zhang Liu’s fried noodles attempt can be considered a failure.
When the temperature of the clay pot cooled down to the point where the contents could be taken out by hand, the color of the entire pot of taro flour had turned completely black.
The only good thing is that it didn't stick to the pan.
Still remains loose.
The five people looked at the pot of fried noodles in front of them. Although none of them had eaten fried noodles before, they compared the burnt smell in the air with the very tempting aroma just now.
They could also preliminarily conclude that their second attempt at making fried noodles had failed...
Anya was the bravest. She stretched out her finger, dipped a little into it, put it in her mouth, and pursed her lips hard.
Feeling the powdery sensation that completely absorbed the saliva in her mouth, she gave her own evaluation: "It's a bit bitter, but edible! It should taste much better if you add some honey and water!"
"Hmm? Let me try!" Zhang Liu, who was originally a little helpless, brightened his eyes after hearing Anya's evaluation, and then he stretched out his fingers and prepared to try it himself.
As he extended his finger, the other three girls followed suit.
Chapter 437: Zhang Liu’s first kiss was with me, Qin Ruoyan!
Taro powder is very dry when it enters the mouth, and it can almost completely absorb the saliva in the mouth.
It tastes slightly bitter.
If you sip it with the tip of your tongue, it will feel like "scratching your tongue".
After swallowing into the mouth, there will still be a "foreign body feeling" in the throat
Regarding the blackened taro powder that he fried for the first time, Zhang Liu's evaluation was almost exactly the same as Anya's.
