Chapter 42 Cracking a coconut is also a technical job

"Weiwei, you go to the beach and look for it again, if you can find a good coconut, I'll cut down the tree." ”

Liu Danqing first went to cut down four thick trees, cleaned the trunks, dragged them back to the camp, and dug holes in the ground next to the fire with his hands.

"On the beach, unlike building a shelter in the Eighteen Villages, the first thing to do to build a shelter from scratch is to dig a pit. Fortunately, this is just a shed, no need to bear weight, the pit does not need to be too deep, just about 30 cm. ”

"It was not difficult to dig a hole more than 30 centimeters deep in the beach, and it didn't take much physical effort, so I stuck a tree trunk into the pit vertically and pressed it down as hard as I could. ”

Next, find a few small rocks, put them in the gap next to the tree trunk, and then backfill the dug sand and step on it. These rocks hold the trunk of the tree in place and allow it to withstand more winds. ”

Next, Liu Danqing drew a gourd in the same way, and inserted a tree trunk in the four corners of the fire.

"Next, I'm going to cut down some thin branches and build a roof rack on the four trunks, which should be a little inclined. ”

Liu Danqing's physique has improved a lot now, coupled with more than ten years of experience in using daggers, let him cut down branches quickly and well, Xiao Weiwei hasn't come back yet, he has already cut four slightly thicker branches, more than a dozen slightly thinner branches.

While tying four slightly thicker branches to the four trunks, Liu Danqing explained:

"Our shelter is built in the direction of high ground, so when tying branches, the two sticks close to the shelter should be tied higher and the other two should be lower, so that a suitable slope can be formed. ”

"Next, I'm going to tie all these thin branches to the two thick branches that are leaning, and then hang the banana leaves on them. Finally, put the most complete banana leaf under the lowest beam, and the banana leaf is tied to two pillars, with a little arc, so that when the steam hits the banana leaf on the top, the pre-cooling will condense into water droplets, which will flow down the slope and be handed to the leaf below, and then drip down the leaf into the large shell below. ”

"All right, the canopy and fresh water collector for the fire is ready, and I will now use this soup pot to go to the beach and pour some seawater over it, and put it on the fire to boil. ”

"Oh, our tannin water is also boiling, let me take it down and cool it first. ”

Liu Danqing took down the canned food box with a branch, put it next to the ham, picked up the broken pot he picked up, and walked towards the beach, just in time to meet Xiao Weiwei who came back.

Xiao Weiwei held two coconuts, one large and one small, and happily showed them to Liu Danqing.

"Look at it gently, two good coconuts, I shook it, I can hear the sound of water, we have coconuts to eat, haha. ”

Liu Danqing took the two coconuts and checked them, feeling quite heavy, they were really good coconuts.

"You go back to the camp first, I'll get some water and go back to open coconuts to eat." ”

Liu Danqing walked into the seawater, filled half a pot of water, and just lifted it, there was a stabbing sound, and half of the bottom of the pot fell down.

“……”

Liu Danqing looked at this broken pot speechlessly, tragedy!

Most of the audience brought their own passive skill of schadenfreude, and at this time they were all triggered.

"Qing Ye's loveless look, joy!"

"I can't imagine that the dignified young man has never met an opponent in the rivers and lakes, but today he is planted on a broken pot. ”

"Soup pot: I was sent by the island god, and I specialize in treating all kinds of disobedience. Let you destroy my water pipes. ”

"Sisters, I just gave Qing Ye and Weiwei a fighter jet - Qing Ye, you better go find cotton candy coconut, don't fix these things. ”

This sister is still obsessed with marshmallow coconut, a woman's persistence!

Liu Danqing picked up the soup pot and looked at it, and said helplessly: "This pot can still be used, but it can only be filled with a little water, and the excess part must be cut off. ”

"Canned box, fate!"

Sighing, Liu Danqing went back with the broken pot, and said as he walked: "This thing is thrown directly into the sea, it would be too immoral, besides, there may be other uses, such as being used as a frying pan, hoping to be useful when the frying pan is used." ”

Inside the camp, Xiao Weiwei was holding the Pioneer M9 and trying to peel the shell of the coconut, sweating profusely, and the coconut did not get much smaller.

"Weiwei, you use a dagger to open the coconut, when does it have to open. The biggest ...... of humans and animals"

"It's making and using tools, I know. ”

"Well, yes, Weiwei, you've learned to answer. But what I want to say is that in addition to making and using tools, there is also the selection of tools......"

Xiao Weiwei raised her head angrily and glared at Liu Danqing.

"Qingqing, you're fooling me again!"

Liu Danqing smiled and went to find a relatively round and strong driftwood, repaired the top of the driftwood, made it sharper, and said to Xiao Weiwei:

"This is the best tool for opening coconuts. ”

"Flicker, flicker, flicker, coconut here, you use your broken wood to open it!"

"Don't worry, don't worry, I haven't set up the tools yet. ”

Liu Danqing lay on the ground, dug sand with both hands, dug a pit of about 30 centimeters, put the tip of the driftwood upward, put it in, threw a few small stones, and then backfilled it with sand to step on it.

"This is the tool for opening coconuts, give me the coconuts, and I'll show you." ”

Liu Danqing took the coconut from Xiao Weiwei's hand, lifted it, smashed it to the tip of the driftwood, and then pried it hard, and the fibers in a piece of coconut skin were pried up.

"Bang, bang, bang", several times in a row, the entire coconut skin was pried open, and Liu Danqing vigorously tore off this thick layer of coconut skin, revealing a rugby-shaped hard shell inside.

Standing up the naked coconut, Liu Danqing took the dagger, gently struck it at the top with the blade of the knife, and then used everything to open it.

"Drink, taste the taste of this brown coconut, it should be sweeter and delicious. ”

Liu Danqing handed the opened coconut to Xiao Weiwei, picked up the slightly smaller one from the ground, and began to peel it.

Xiao Weiwei watched Liu Danqing continue to work, and was not in a hurry to drink coconut water, and said, "Qingqing, I'll drink it together after you open it." ”

Liu Danqing smashed the coconut again, nodded over and over again, three times and two times, and it was done.

The two face each other on the driftwood

"It's our tea time! The drink is pure natural coconut water, and the snack is coconut pulp, Weiwei, cheers, thank nature!"

"Thank you, nature, cheers!"

The two lifted the coconut, touched it, and each raised his head to take a sip.

Xiao Weiwei looked intoxicated and sighed: "It's delicious, sweet, and there is a coconut fragrance, which kills any drink in seconds!"

Liu Danqing smiled and said: "Whew! This mouthful, comfortable, it would be perfect to have two more beach chairs." In the hot summer, coconut water has a good effect of cooling off the heat and quenching thirst. The coconut water in this brown coconut may not be as cool as that of green coconut, but it is very sweet and delicious. ”

"Coconut water is rich in minerals such as potassium and magnesium, and its composition is similar to that of intracellular fluid, which can correct dehydration and electrolyte imbalances, and achieve diuretic and swelling effects. Coconut meat and coconut water have the effect of killing intestinal parasites, which is very important to us, in the hot uninhabited island, it is the time when the intestines are severely tested, at this time there is coconut water and coconut meat to help us, it is also a great news!"

"In addition, coconut water contains sugar, fat, protein, growth hormone, vitamins and a large number of essential trace elements, regular drinking, can benefit qi, replenish intracellular fluid, expand blood volume, moisturize the skin, has the effect of anti-aging beauty, slightly, this is very important to you!"

The audience looked at the intoxicated expressions of the two and went crazy.

"Master Qing, how much endorsement fee did Coconut give you?

"You can be so intoxicated by drinking a sip of coconut water, Qing Ye is slightly anti-poison, right? ”

"Six coconuts have been ordered, wahaha, you have to drink the speed of coconut water, otherwise it will be out of stock. ”

"College students sell agricultural products to Qing Ye and a fighter jet - thank you for Qing Ye's introduction, under the monopoly of Qiong Province specialties, there are fresh coconuts, the store address ......"

Sure enough, the most shrewd is still the businessman, and here, an advertisement has been put out again.
