Chapter 516 Pipi Shrimp, No Name

Day 38.

On this day, Li Junge got up early in the morning and took out all the six pottery bowls in the pottery kiln.

Then I went to the vegetable field and dug out the bones left over from the nutrient soil after eating the other day.

These bones were deliberately buried by Li Junge, and after a few days, only Bai Shengsheng's bones remained.

The bones are washed and dried over a fire, and three pottery bowls are selected, filled with plant ashes, buried the bones, and re-placed in the pottery kiln.

Then the remaining three clay bowls were put in, and a kiln was fired.

Next, start scalding the noodles, cut dried bamboo shoots, dried mushrooms, dried cassava, and fresh wild onions, ginger.

Cut all the ingredients into minced pieces and stir together with the bacon minced meat cut yesterday, and then burned a scoop of lard and poured it in, and after stirring and gradually condensing, Li Junge began to wrap the pig's porridge.

Spread plantain leaves on the bottom of the steamer and set up a basket for steaming.

This is Ayin also got up, and the two went to wash first, and then began to practice archery.

Ah Yin's athletic talent is very strong, and he can casually throw out Li Junge several streets before the transformation of Lingquan, plus he climbed up and down the Hanging Sky Cliff when he was young, and his arm strength and finger strength are quite not weak, plus the throwing stone is also the same as aiming and shooting, and now he can play with a bow and arrow to get started quickly.

Thirty paces away, twelve arrows were released, and nine were inserted into the target.

Li Junge was dumbfounded, except for fishing, he finally had a stronger posture than this girl in sports, but he was about to be surpassed in a blink of an eye.

Ah Yin turned around, and said to Li Junge while taking the glove arm guard: "Erpi, there should also be a wind flag, if it weren't for the wind, I should be able to hit the target." ”

The girlfriend's order is that it can't be delayed for a minute, this matter is too simple for Li Junge, and in a blink of an eye, a bamboo ring and a few pieces of paper were pasted out of a long tube.

Tie the twine on the three equal points of the bamboo circle, then tie the twine together, erect a long bamboo pole, pick the hair dryer on the top, and the hair dryer will be blown by the wind and flutter.

Li Junge smiled triumphantly at Ah Yin: "What's the matter?

Ayin clapped his hands and smiled: "It's really hard for you to do anything!"

The two returned to the shed, Li Junge scooped out some broth, threw some sunflower vegetables into it, and the pork porridge was the broth for breakfast.

But I didn't eat much, I drank a bowl of soup, and one person only ate one, and then Li Junge used the compound feed made of bee chrysalis powder, pockmarks, and dried cassava to feed the quails, and Ayin cleaned the courtyard, watered the flowers, and watered the vegetable field.

After packing these, the two of them packed their bags and began their daily jogging exercise.

Running all the way to the beach, at about nine o'clock in the morning, the two began to take off their shoes, pull up their trouser legs, and go into the water to catch Pipi shrimp.

The event was both food gathering and entertainment, and the two were giggling and playing on the mudflats while catching shrimp.

Ayin used to live in the mountains and rarely came into contact with this kind of water-friendly activity, but now she can't stop when she goes crazy.

The bigger the shrimp, the deeper it was drilled, like the kind that was long in the palm, and the hole was as deep as an arm, and the two of them finally simply put the small ones down, knelt on the tidal flats and searched for them, specifically making them bigger.

But this man can't see it, and it's like a big fool who rolls through the mud and comes back.

After a while, the two caught more than a dozen prawns, put them in the fish basket, and found a place with clean sea water to raise and spit mud.

Then the two of them went to the reef to wash the mud.

Ah Yin was only wearing a small vest, and while washing his arms and legs, he stuck out his tongue at Li Junge: "It's so fun! ”

Li Junge said with a smile: "Yes, it's very fun by the water, the children of Li Jiagou basically soak at the water's edge during a summer vacation, and one vacation is not enough for them to finish all the tricks." ”

After packing up, the two of them put on their bags again, carried their bags, collected vegetables and fruits all the way, and returned all the way.

Li Junge chose to return along the stream today, picking up stones by the stream and throwing them in his backpack.

Ah Yin felt very strange: "Erpi, why did you think of looking for stones again today?"

Li Junge said: "There are still ten days of vacation to end, and I am going to get another thing out, and I don't know if it will succeed." ”

Ayin said, "Is it a stone tool?"

Li Junge said: "No, Ayin, you can also help me keep an eye on it, look, like the one on my hand, the hardness is not high, the color is strange, or there are some crystals, you can collect it when you see it." ”

Ayin tilted his head and thought for a moment, and said, "When I was looking for pebbles for throwing ropes, I found a strange stone ......"

Li Junge became interested when he heard it: "What is it like?"

Ayin said: "It's some stone lumps inside the soil layer, which look like mud balls on the outside, and can crack with a light knock, and inside are some crystal patterns like those on my grandfather's coal sands, but they are much bigger and full of ......."

Li Junge's heart moved, he thought of something, and said to Ah Yin: "Hurry up! Take me to see it." ”

The two began to leave the stream and walk halfway up the mountain.

When he came to the edge of a cliff, Ayin pointed to the foot of the cliff and said, "Oh, there!"

This is a fractured sedimentary rock, the bottom is severely weathered, and the rocks have turned into mud-like, Li Junge dug down the foot of the cliff, and it didn't take much to find the kind of mud-wrapped stone balls that Ayin said.

The surface of the stone ball is brown, covered with this layer of yellow oxidized powder, Li Junge picked one up, and with a light tap with the back of the knife, the stone cracked into two sides, revealing the purple-brown cryptocrystalline structure inside.

Li Junge threw away the knife, hugged Ayin and turned in a circle: "Hahaha! God help me! Ayin, you are really my lucky star!"

Ayin was dizzy by him: "What is so happy!"

Li Junge said excitedly: "This is a Chinese herbal medicine, called nameless, also called Tuzi, I saw it at Uncle Pharmacist, but whether it is or not, well, I can only know when I go home!"

Ah Yin was surprised: "This is also medicine, I look like a mineral?"

Li Junge said with a smile: "There are a lot of mineral Chinese medicines, cinnabar, realgar, miscanthus salt, talc are all ah, but I don't use it as traditional Chinese medicine, it is recorded in ancient books that this thing has another use." ”

Ayin said, "What's the use?"

Li Junge shook his head: "Don't say it, I don't know if it will be successful, if it succeeds, I'll tell you." It is better to believe in a book than to have no book at all, and the devil knows whether the method of the book is feasible or not. ”

Ayin smiled: "You just love to toss, I'm too lazy to care about you, hurry home and try to make bread!"

Li Junge said, "Wait, wait until I collect them all." ”

There are many stone balls here, and after a while, the two of them dug twenty or thirty, and there were six or seven catties.

The two of them began to walk back.

Back at home, Ayin first put the pipi shrimp in salt water and raised it, and started to heat the meal himself, while Li Junge went to open the kiln.

Taking out the pottery bowl, Li Junge began to examine the burnt bones and plant ashes.

The organic matter burned very thoroughly, the bones turned a harsh white, pure calcium oxide, the plant ash turned grayish-white, and the carbon was almost burned out.

He took all kinds of stones collected today, including those that were nameless, smashed them one by one with a flint hammer, spread them to the bottom of the pottery bowl in different categories, put them in the kiln, and fired another kiln.

After eating, Ayin went to rest, and Li Junge took the burned bones and plant ashes to the stone mill and ground them into fine powder

Then the finest powder suspension is obtained by the water fly method, put it in a clay pot, and bake it on the kiln.

After doing this, the final process of processing the pig skin begins.

The pork skin is spread out on a pottery table, sprinkled with tapioca flour, first polished with a wooden square, and then wrapped and rolled with a rolling pin, and the pork skin has become very soft in all directions.

Then hang the pork rind and beat it with a wooden stick to shake off the tapioca flour.

Then carry a bucket and go to the lake to fetch water, and by the way, soak the pigskin at the inlet to rinse it, so that the excess miscanthus can seep out.

After fetching water, he planted the collected plants in the vegetable garden, made two pots of tea, and put a plate of small biscuits, and Ayin also got up.

Then Li Junge began to remove the kiln fire to let it cool, and came back to take out the medium mud to make the clay embryo, and Ayin took out the coconut to take the meat to make coconut milk.

After the coconut milk is ready, add water, honey and salt to boil, Ayin takes the tapioca flour and begins to knead the dough.

After kneading the dough, knead the fluffy old noodles into it, take out a ball and put it back in the old basin and cover it with a damp cloth, pour baking soda and coconut oil on the rest, and continue to knead.

After kneading, cover with a damp cloth and put it behind the stove to ferment, Ayin washed his hands and came back to see Li Junge making pottery.

Li Junge's side made bowls this time, but it was not an ordinary rice bowl, but the most common bucket bowl on the Li Jiagou mat.

The diameter is 15 cm, the bottom diameter is 8 cm, and the height is 8 cm.

The tools are complete and the size is standard, and the bucket bowl is neatly made, and the work has been done four at this time, but there is no bottom ring yet.

Ah Yin smiled when he saw it: "Erpi, are you planning to make nine?"

Li Junge laughed: "Do you know what I'm going to do? I'm afraid that nine won't work, I'm afraid that half of them will be unqualified, and at least eighteen will have to be made." ”

Ah Yin was idle, but he also smiled and played with mud on the side, made some small clay sharp-nosed funnels, punched holes with bamboo silk, rubbed some mud balls, and also used bamboo silk to drill out of the eyes.

Li Junge looked curious and asked, "What is this?"

Ayin said: "Fire them into pottery, hang the funnel with the big head down, and hang a pottery pill in a funnel, and when the wind blows, the pottery pill touches the inside of the funnel......"

Li Junge laughed: "Wind chimes! Ayin, you are really exquisite!"

After another hour, the dough was ready, and Ayin kneaded the dough into the size of a ping-pong ball, sprinkled it with desiccated coconut and soaked seaweed, and put it in the pot one by one.

Li Junge opened the roof of the kiln, took out the pottery bowls one by one with a hooked bamboo tong wrapped in thick mud, put the bread pot in it, and re-covered the lid to bake the bread.

The temperature in the kiln is still more than 200 degrees, and you only need to add a few pieces of bamboo charcoal in the middle, and it is no problem to keep it for half an hour.

Then the two of them crouched down together to examine the stones in the bowl.

Selecting a few pieces of stone with sharp edges and corners formed by the knocking that had become rounded, Li Junge said to Ayin: "Look, these stones have a significantly lower melting point, and they are what I am looking for." ”

Ayin said, "Then what about the kind of stone I found? Let's see how it goes." ”

Li Junge opened another pottery bowl, and the stones inside had been fired, and now they had changed into several colors.
