208. The sea salt ran out

After making the clothes, Chen Zhe took the girls to take a walk in the rain.

First, you can test the quality of everyone's clothes, compare their respective craftsmanship, and secondly, everyone has been holding back in the tree house for too long, and it is time to come out to spread joy and breathe.

Staying indoors for a long time can make people depressed.

Fortunately, the rain in the rainforest is not too big, coupled with the protection of the cloth, the rain cannot wet everyone's body at all, but flows down the clothes.

Chen Zhe glanced at his own robe, and the quality of the items that had been blessed by the system was really good.

The rainwater was all cut off by the coat partition and did not penetrate into the inner layer.

"Hmm...... My coat is rainproof, at least in this level of rain, there won't be any problems, what about you?" asked Chen Zhe with a smile.

Yan'er took a graceful turn in the rain, and she was also showing off her beautiful and exquisite new raincoat.

Her coat is also very delicately woven and does not leak.

"My coat is also qualified, and the rain is completely wet. Yan'er said happily.

Immediately afterwards, Da Qiao also nodded and said, "My coat is no problem, the waterproof effect is first-class." ”

Although her coat is not as beautiful as Chen Zhe and Yan'er's, it is better than practical, Da Qiao accurately grasps the law of overlapping palm bark, which makes her coat very waterproof.

Chen Zhe and Yan'er couldn't help but nod approvingly, the first time they could weave their clothes like this, Da Qiao had already performed very well.

But at this moment, everyone realized one thing - Xiao Qiao, who had always been lively, seemed to have become mute and didn't speak for a long time.

Chen Zhe couldn't help but look back at Xiao Qiao, and asked curiously, "Xiao Qiao, what's the situation with your clothes?"

"Yes, Sister Xiao Qiao, is there anything wrong with your robe?" asked Yan'er.

Everyone looked back, but saw Xiao Qiao standing motionless in the rain, looking down at his robe.

And although her robe does not look much different from the others, there is a stream of water flowing vertically down the hem, and from a distance, it looks as if Little Joe has accidentally peed his pants......

"I seem to have a delusion......

Xiao Qiao said faintly,

"My robe...... My Cloth...... It's a bit leaky!"

Hearing this, my sister Da Qiao couldn't help laughing: "Hahaha...... Fool, it's not your delusion, your coat is really leaking!"

Chen Zhe also said with a smile: "Look at your current appearance, it's like peeing your pants." ”

Xiao Qiao looked at the water flowing between his legs in embarrassment, and defended with a red face: "This is ...... It's not peeing my pants! It's rain! It's just that the rain is leaking out of the middle of my coat, so it looks like peeing my pants!"

Of course, Da Qiao and Chen Zhe understood that it was rain, but they just couldn't help but want to laugh.

Yan'er hurriedly ran to Xiao Qiao's side and said, "Sister Xiao Qiao, your clothes are leaking rain, be careful of catching a cold, hurry up and follow me back to the tree house, and I will improve your ...... again."

Xiao Qiao glanced at Yan'er gratefully, and said softly: "It's still my little Yan'er who is kind." ”

After that, he glared at Da Qiao and Chen Zhe again, and said angrily: "You two, there is no good thing, hum!"

The two of them climbed back to the tree house, Xiao Qiao took off his coat and handed it to Yan'er, and asked Yan'er to help change it.

In fact, the reason why Xiao Qiao's coat leaked rain was because there was a missing palm bark on the back of her clothes, which she had originally rubbed and kneaded, but she just threw it on the ground and forgot to put it on.

Seeing this scene, Yan'er and Xiao Qiao couldn't cry or laugh.

What else can I say? I can only say that Xiao Qiao, this girl has a really big heart.

After renovating the robe, Xiao Qiao ran out again in the coat, this time her coat finally stopped leaking, and there would be no "water flow" that made people blush.

Seeing that everyone had clothes to wear, Chen Zhe finally put his mind at ease, so that even if it was rainy again, everyone would not be trapped in the house and couldn't get out.

At this time, it was just after the afternoon, the time was still early, and the light rain on the island was still dripping, far from stopping.

Chen Zhe thought for a while and proposed: "Every rainy day, the fish in the river are especially active and often jump out of the water...... Therefore, a rainy day is a good day for fishing.

Now that we have the coat, why don't we go to the river and catch some fish?"

When Yan'er heard this, she applauded in approval: "Okay, okay, the pomfret on the mountain is quite delicious, it just so happens that the wolf meat and pork are not digested these days, so eat some fish to change the taste." ”

"I agree. Da Qiao nodded and said, "Eating too much bacon is easy to get angry, or the fish is light and rich in high-quality protein." ”

Chen Zhe smiled, then picked up the fishing basket and took the girls to the river to catch fish.

When he went to the nearby river, Chen Zhe found that the width of the river had risen a lot, and some of the original embankments had been submerged into the water, and the water depth had become much deeper.

"The water is rising again. Chen Zhe couldn't help but worry, "I'm afraid that the flood disaster is coming soon." ”

Yan'er nodded, and said happily: "Thanks to our early preparation and moving from the bottom of the mountain to the tree, even if the flood disaster comes, we don't have to worry." ”

"yes. Chen Zhe said, but after thinking about it, he added, "It's just that Liatira and Clark under the mountain are unlucky." ”

"I wish they had sensed the flood was coming sooner and moved quickly. Yan'er whispered.

Throughout the afternoon, Chen Zhe and the girls fished for fish in a slanting wind and drizzle, and when the river rose, there were more fish in it, and these fish were very active in the rain.

It didn't take long for everyone to catch nearly 20 catties of fish.

In the end, the whole fishing basket couldn't fit it, so Chen Zhe and the girls returned with a full load, and with these high-quality rations, they didn't have to worry about food for several days.

Back at the camp before evening, Yan'er took off her coat and prepared to process the fish, but at that moment, she suddenly noticed something.

"Brother Xiao Chen, it seems that our sea salt is running out. ”

The little girl said depressedly.

Hearing the news, Chen Zhe hurriedly walked over to take a look, only to see that the jar containing the sea salt had indeed bottomed out, and only a shallow layer of sea salt crystals was attached to the bottom of the jar.

"I remember that we made a lot of sea salt ......," Chen Zhe said with some surprise.

"The main thing is that we hunt faster. Yan'er said helplessly, "Don't mention the wolf meat at the beginning, and later hunted two big wild boars, one is five or six hundred catties, and the other is also three hundred catties...... I've been catching a lot of fish lately. ”

"That's right. Chen Zhe shrugged, "We do have too much food, no wonder we run out of sea salt so quickly, with our foraging speed, even if there is more sea salt, it will be quickly used up." ”

......

On the island, Chen Zhe and Yan'er counted the food that everyone had caught during this time, and calculated the consumption rate of sea salt, but what they didn't know was that this scene was broadcast live by the director.

Listening to Yan'er counting the prey of these days with her fingers, there are wolves, wild boars, and pomfret ...... Netizens couldn't help but admire and be shocked.

"Chen Zhe: Their hunting ability is really strong. ”

"The man at the top of the food chain. ”

"Chen Zhe, I'm afraid that their group hunted more food than the other groups combined, right?"

"The other groups even caught a hare and had to eat it for many days, but Chen Zhe didn't look down on the rabbit as a prey anymore......"

"That's the gap!"

"Goods have to be thrown away, and people have to die than people. ”

“......”

Chen Zhe's side.

After seeing that Haiyan had bottomed out, he realized that it was a tricky problem.

Because of the importance of living on an island, the role of sea salt is crucial.

In addition to being used as a condiment in daily meals, sea salt is also an important tool for food preservation.

Chen Zhe's camp is stocked with a large amount of wolf meat and pork, which needs to be smeared with a layer of salt grains for daily storage.

Sometimes the meat is damp again due to heavy rain and moisture, so it is necessary to wipe the moisture off the surface of the meat with silk, so that the sea salt on the surface of the meat is also wiped off, and a new layer of sea salt needs to be reapplied immediately - so the daily consumption of sea salt is also huge, and it is not necessary to marinate the meat all at once.

At this time, Yan'er asked worriedly, "Brother Xiao Chen, what should we do? Are we going to the beach to make a new batch of sea salt?"

"This is the only way, after all, our lives are inseparable from sea salt. "If there is no sea salt, then the meat products in the camp will rot ......."

"But......," said Yan'er worriedly, "but it's the rainy season, the weather is unpredictable, and we live in the mountains, far from the sea." Originally, when we lived at the bottom of the mountain, it took us two hours to walk to the beach, and it would take half a day to go from the mountain to the beach, right?"

"That's true......" Chen Zhe said helplessly.

The journey from the mountains to the beach is more than twice as farther than before, and of course it takes more time.

And the weather in the rainy season is unpredictable, although he made a robe, but if there is a heavy rainstorm on the way, even wearing a coat is dangerous, not to mention carrying a jar of sea salt.

At this time, Da Qiao asked another question: "Chen Zhe, if you boil sea salt, you definitely need a sunny weather, right? It's the rainy season, and sunny days are too rare...... This season is not suitable for salt production at all. ”

Xiao Qiao also nodded and said, "Yes, it's too dangerous to go to the beach in the rainy season." ”

Chen Zhe knew that what the two sisters said was right, but he had no other choice.

If they don't boil the sea salt at this time, then it means that the meat they have worked so hard to store will have to be wasted, and hundreds of catties of meat products will rot together, which is a huge loss.

......

Meanwhile.

In the live broadcast room of Wilderness Survival.

Seeing that Chen Zhe had encountered a problem, the host He Chen immediately said: "Now Chen Zhe has encountered a thorny problem - the sea salt on the camp has been eaten.

Sea salt plays a vital role in the preservation of food, and when it is finished, it means that the large amount of meat in Chen Zhe's camp will rot.

The only solution was to go to the beach to make salt, but now it was the rainy season, and Chen Zhe's camp had been moved from the bottom of the mountain to the mountain, and it was too dangerous for Chen Zhe to go directly to the beach from the mountain.

Friends, what do you think Chen Zhe should do?"

When it came to the topic of Chen Zhe, the commentator Lao Meng didn't dare to speak, he was really scared of being slapped in the face by Chen Zhe, for fear of expressing some opinions and being slapped in the face by Chen Zhe.

However, a female guest sitting next to him said actively: "I think Chen Zhe can only give up this meat, because it is very dangerous to go to the beach in the rainy season."

First of all, there are often torrential rains during the rainy season, and the heavy rains are accompanied by high winds, which makes the waves on the beach more violent than usual, and it is likely to sweep people into the sea, causing drowning......

In addition, Chen Zhe's camp is on the mountain, and it is at least half a day's journey from the mountain to the sea, if you take into account the muddy road caused by the heavy rain, you may not be able to walk it in half a day, I am afraid it will take a day.

The mountains and forests in the rainy season are just as dangerous as the seaside, so what if Chen Zhe walks in the rainforest for a day and encounters a mudslide, landslide or something?"

He Chen nodded approvingly after hearing this, and said, "I understand, your opinion is that you don't approve of Chen Zhe going to make salt, because it's too dangerous." ”

"Yes. The female guest nodded.

Later, a male guest next to him also expressed his own opinion: "I also don't approve of Chen Zhe going to the beach to make salt, my opinion is mainly because the success rate of seaside salt production is not high."

According to Chen Zhe's previous method of salt making, his salt production had to be carried out on a sunny day, if it rained, first, he could not light a bonfire to burn the stones, and second, the rain would mix into his salt well, dilute the original seawater, and cause the sea salt to not be precipitated......

So what if Chen Zhe rushed all the way to the beach, but encountered rainy weather? He can't live by the sea, just wait for the rainy day to pass and the sunny day to come, right?

The key point is that because his camp is too far from the sea, he can't rush there on a sunny day, and if he still lives at the bottom of the mountain, only two hours from the sea, then he might still go to the beach to make salt. ”

After hearing this, He Chen nodded with a smile and said, "I understand, you don't recommend Chen Zhe to go to the beach to make salt, because salt production needs to be on a sunny day, but Chen Zhe's camp is too far away from the sea, and it is impossible to rush over on a sunny day, right?"

"Yes. The male guest responded.

"Okay. He Chen said, and then turned his gaze to Lao Meng, who did not express his opinion.

Unexpectedly, as soon as Lao Meng saw He Chen's gaze sweeping over, he hurriedly pretended to look elsewhere and did not make any eye contact with He Chen.

His attitude is very clear - as long as it involves Chen Zhe's questions, I will not answer them, I am afraid that I will be slapped in the face as soon as I speak, and I will be taught by Chen Zhe to be a man.

Seeing Lao Meng's cowardice, He Chen couldn't cry or laugh.

He is a kind-hearted person, of course he will not deliberately let Lao Meng not come to the stage, since Lao Meng is unwilling to answer, he will no longer forcibly ask.

So let's see Chen Zhe's own choice. He Chen said to the big screen.

At this time, Chen Zhe was discussing the matter of salt making with his partners, and everyone's opinions were very clear.

No one advised Chen Zhe to risk his life to go to the beach to make salt, after all, the mountain road in the rainy season is too difficult to walk, and it is too far to go from the tree house to the beach.

Da Qiao said: "Chen Zhe, forget it when the sea salt is gone, let's eat this meat quickly, eat as much as we can, and if we can't eat it, we can only waste it, there is no way to ...... it."

Xiao Qiao also nodded and said, "Yes, we can still catch fish anyway, and we won't be hungry, it's better than you taking the risk of going to the beach." ”

Even Yan'er began to persuade Chen Zhe: "Brother Xiao Chen, the matter of making salt ...... Or forget it?"

However, Chen Zhe never expressed his opinion, because he was really unwilling to waste so much meat because there was no sea salt......

Seeing Chen Zhe's attitude, netizens in the live broadcast room couldn't help but ask curiously: "Does Chen Zhe still want to go to the beach to make salt?"
