After being stranded on a deserted island, they all plotted against me

In the end, Xiang Wanying silently rejected this approach.

It’s better not to take risks yourself.

"Forget it, let's get some more and bring them back to show Qin Ruoyan, right?"

Looking around, she soon found her target.

Banana bushes growing in the muddy area beside the river

After clearing her throat, Xiang Wanying proposed her idea to Zhao Yiran: "Leave the wood-cutting work to me. You can wrap more of this stuff with banana leaves. Maybe it is the food that the wild boars are eating."

"it is good!"

Nodding seriously, Zhao Yiran turned and ran towards the banana grove.

After she left, Xiang Wanying continued to swing the metal sheet in her hand and began to chop down the two-meter-long bush in front of her.

Although the alloy blade is not very sharp, it is still no problem to use it to cut down this kind of shrub.

So when Zhao Yiran wrapped a dozen "suspected sweet potato" rhizomes with banana leaves, Xiang Wanying had already cut down thirteen shrubs.

Later, with the help of Zhao Yiran, the twenty-four shrubs needed to build the basic frame of the shelter were prepared.

Carrying four shrubs to build a rain shelter for the fire, Xiang Wanying and Zhao Yiran ran to Qin Ruoshuang, who had successfully cleared a three-meter-long and wide space.

After briefly explaining their discovery to each other, the two began to build a rain shelter.

“Is this a sweet potato?”

After hearing about the situation, Qin Ruoshuang was also full of curiosity, and wanted to try some...

However, since her sister Qin Ruoyan was not around, she didn't dare to say anything casually.

I looked at these roots covered with wet mud for a while.

In the end, Qin Ruoshuang chose to run in the direction Xiang Wanying said to get the bushes.

When the fire shelter was built, the three began to build a shelter.

Qin Ruoyan, who ran a long way to collect them, also came back with a handful of purple-calyx flowers.

She collected a lot of violets from a meadow.

This wild vegetable that looks like a flower can be eaten directly after being blanched in boiling water.

Qin Ruoyan was very happy to be able to obtain this thing.

At the same time, she also found a lot of fallen cleome flowers.

There are many seeds in it.

in other words.

This thing can be taken back to the taro field for observation and planting.

But when we got to the campsite, a fire had already been lit.

Qin Ruoyan heard the good news that what might be sweet potato rhizomes were found from Xiang Wanying and others who were working together to build a second shelter.

"let me see!"

Arranging her sister to boil water to blanch the ground lilies, Qin Ruoyan turned around to check the "sweet potatoes" she had brought over.

The more I looked, the more her brows furrowed.

When the four members of Xiang Wanying's exploration team finished building the shelter and began to hide inside waiting for Qin Ruoyan to make a judgment on the rhizome that looked like sweet potato, Gu Xixi had already crossed the ridge area of ​​the goat jungle with a basket of books on his back and entered the front area of ​​the jungle.

Stepping forward, her goal was to cross the jungle and enter Shelter No. 1 inside the forest to look for other traces.

After all, if godmother and Miss Lan Yueting had not arrived, then the last people to use Shelter No. 1 would be himself and Gu Qingrou!

Gu Xixi planned to use this to judge the traces of the two people.

He reached out and touched the roasted taro that his eldest daughter had left for him even though she would rather starve.

Her eyes were extremely determined.

This breakfast, still warm, represents Gu Qingrou's expectations and worries.

The rain kept flowing around the awning above my head and then hit the rain hat on my head.

But Gu Xixi did not stop at all, she must find a way to pick up her godmother and the eldest lady's classmates!

The time soon came to noon.

When Gu Xixi stopped and prepared to eat something, Anya's cheerful voice came from the front.

"I will give Zhang Liu three more by then!"

Anya bounced and hopped on the smooth and easy-to-walk grass, turned around and spoke with a proud expression on her face.

Behind her were Su Yan, who had just expressed her desire to give Zhang Liu two children, and Lan Yueting, who had just suggested that it would be best to have one girl, with a look of dissatisfaction on her face.

With the energy replenished by eggs, bird meat, snake meat and coffee, the three of them, although a little tired, still had enough energy to chat and laugh.

Therefore, Anya's "declaration" that she wanted to have three children quickly reached the ears of the Gu family's maid.

"Is it Anya?"

However, for Gu Xixi right now, having a few children is not something that needs to be taken into consideration at all.

What matters to her most right now is why she heard this person's voice.

According to the plan, shouldn't she and Su Yan accompany Zhang Liu to move forward?

Gu Xixi's anxious voice echoed over the rain and bushes.

The news reached the ears of Anya and others who were about a hundred meters away.

"Hey! It's Sister Xixi!"

Following Anya's surprised voice, Su Yan, Lan Yueting and she all quickened their pace.

Soon the four of them successfully met in the jungle.

"Where are godmother and Zhang Liu?"

After seeing that Anya, Lan Yueting and Su Yan were completely fine, Gu Xixi first breathed a sigh of relief.

Then she started asking about her godmother and her lover.

"Cuckoo..."

Just as Lan Yueting was about to speak, the pheasant stuffed in the book basket behind her suddenly made a sound.

It had only eaten a little bit of tender grass tips in the morning, so now it was eager for the other party to let it out so it could continue eating.

"This is a long story. Why don't we take a break, have a meal, and talk while we eat?"

Looking at Gu Xixi, whose face was full of curiosity because of the sound of "coo", Su Yan made a suggestion.

Chapter 321: The Goddaughter Who Can't Understand Her Godmother

Under Gu Xixi's expectant expression.

In the end, she still didn't get to eat the meat of the two wild animals that were left walking around on the grass.

Because Anya, Su Yan, and Lan Yueting simultaneously stopped the maid of the Gu family who was sharpening her knife and wanted to kill two pheasants for a snack, and emphasized the importance of "sustainable development".

But when everyone finished lunch and continued on their way.

Gu Xixi already understood the overall changes in the situation.

The combination of Zhou Fang and Lan Yueting who were originally arranged to return became the three people in front.

His godmother and Zhang Liu set off alone.

This made her feel a little strange.

After all, based on her previous discoveries, Gu Xixi estimated that her godmother was preparing to have some "old cow eating young grass" fun.

　Thinking of this, she felt even more strange.

After all, Zhou Fang always looks capable in front of Gu Xixi.

Previously, she used the excuse of being a maid in the Gu family to talk to the other party about marriage, and Zhou Fang's answer was "For the sake of the family, I plan to not get married."

But now, she has discovered that the other party obviously has some intentions.

This made Gu Xixi feel a little confused for a moment.

In essence, she is not against this kind of thing.

but……

After thinking carefully for a long time, Gu Xixi still couldn't fully understand such behavior.

after all……

The age gap between the two is too big.

There is a two or three year age difference between me and Zhang Liu, and I have to worry about the worldview...

This is already ten years old...

You’re old enough to be a mother, right?

When Gu Xixi, Su Yan, Anya, and Lan Yueting started to head towards the hillside, preparing to meet up with Xiang Lingying, Song Shuyao, and Gu Qingrou who stayed there.

Zhou Fang and Zhang Liu were collecting pyrite next to the pyrite in the middle layer of the jungle.

This kind of mineral related to volcanic activity is a true treasure to them.

Under normal circumstances, it can be understood according to the calcination equation:

《4FeS2+11O2=2Fe2O3+8SO2》

That is, iron oxide and sulfur dioxide are obtained.

But if we can find a way to isolate the combustion from the air, then we can change the reaction equation.

《FeS2====Fe+2S》

Iron and sulfur!

The former is a must-have good thing for surviving here for a long time.

The latter can be combined with saltpeter and charcoal to become gunpowder.

Charcoal is available right now and can be burned anywhere.

Saltpeter is a bit more troublesome.

However, Zhang Liu had seen a detailed description in Feng Jicai's novella "Bombing the Double Lanterns".

You can wait until the rainy season is over and then look next to the toilet or pigpen or sheep pen. You may find it near the edge of the mud.

Later, Zhang Liu also learned the origin of "toilet saltpeter" in a chemistry book.

Nitrates in the soil, that is, ionized nitrate ions, can be absorbed by plants and turned into nitrogen sources to synthesize amino acids and proteins.

Later, when the plant is eaten, urea, the final metabolite of protein and amino acids, is excreted.

The ammonia obtained after the hydrolysis of urea and other substances will release energy when oxidized and then be converted into an energy source for autotrophic bacteria - nitrifying bacteria.

Finally, under the action of nitrifying bacteria, the final oxidation product of ammonia is nitric acid.

When nitric acid reacts with minerals in the soil, it eventually becomes nitrates, including calcium nitrate, magnesium nitrate, potassium nitrate, sodium nitrate, etc.

Zhang Liu was not clear about the subsequent reaction.

But all he needed was nitrate, something that could be used to make gunpowder or ice.

At present, the two have collected nearly thirty pieces of pyrite and wrapped them in curtain cloth.

During the collection process, Zhang Liu accidentally knocked off several large pieces of ore mixed with long green crystalline stones.

He originally thought that this thing that looked green might have "some radiation", so he planned to throw it as far as he could.

But after Zhou Fang identified them later, she determined that these should be long strips of emerald ore.

Because Zhou Fang has several of these long mineral decorations at home.

And according to her initial judgment.

The crystal structure and color of these emeralds appear to be very good.

If it can be taken down and carved perfectly, the price may reach hundreds of thousands.
