Chapter 39 Banana Tree Version Freshwater Collection Apparatus

"HOHO~~~, friends, our luck is coming, do you see it, there are actually a few banana trees there, let's hurry over and take a look, it's a huge surprise." ”

The two walked to the banana tree excitedly and looked at them one by one, but Xiao Weiwei said disappointedly: "Alas, there is not a single banana on the banana tree, it is really white and happy, white is happy." ”

Liu Danqing saw that her depressed look was very cute, and couldn't help but reach out and rub her head, give her a brain touch, and said with a smile: "Weiwei, although these banana trees have no bananas, they are still very important to us, they can continue to provide us with fresh water." ”

Liu Danqing took out his Pioneer M9 and cut it at the root of the banana tree ten centimeters above the ground.

"The trunk of the banana tree is very soft and contains a lot of water, but this water contains tannins, which can be very astringent, and now we are very thirsty, so even if it is sour, this water should not be wasted. ”

The head of the banana tree was cut off, leaving only one trunk, and Liu Danqing placed it diagonally on a branch, and the bottom was placed diagonally on a cleaned tinplate can.

Immediately, there was a sound of tinkling water hitting the can, and the fresh water in the banana tree began to flow into the can, and the speed was not slow.

"Weiwei, you hold on to the trunk of the tree, don't let it and the cans fall, I'll go and collect fresh water. ”

Fresh water collection device?Xiao Weiwei held the trunk of the banana tree with both hands, staring curiously at Liu Danqing's movements.

Liu Danqing dug out the flocculent material from the roots of the banana tree, leaving the outer skin, which looked like a bowl, and dug a small hole in the bark at the bottom of the bowl. Then he found a hollow straw pole and cut it off about three centimeters.

Digging a pit next to the root of the tree, Liu Danqing took out a cleaned mineral water bottle and put it vertically next to the root, then stuffed one end of the straw into the small hole in the root of the banana tree, and inserted the other end diagonally into the mineral water bottle.

Soon, the sound of ticking water came from inside the mineral water bottle.

Liu Danqing picked a banana tree leaf and covered it with the roots, explaining: "This is our fresh water collection device No. 1, although we cut down the trunk of the banana tree, but the roots of the banana tree can still work for a long time, can continuously absorb water from the ground, and then filter it into fresh water, drip into a mineral water bottle, according to the size of this banana tree, it should be able to provide us with 300 ml of fresh water every day, there are also 2 banana trees here, let me convert them into fresh water collection device No. 2 and No. 3 in turn." ”

"The water collected in this way is clean and not as sour as the water in the trunk of the tree, so it is a high-quality direct drinking water. ”

"You don't have to worry about these banana trees, think that we are using them destructively, banana trees only bloom once in their lives, they only bear fruit once, and these banana trees have branches left over after fruiting, which means that they have completed their mission of life. ”

At this time, the water flow in the trunk of the banana tree has turned into water droplets, and it is getting slower and slower, Liu Danqing put the trunk aside, picked up the can, handed it to Xiao Weiwei, and said: "Drink, don't stop, drink a few big sips, now our state is okay, so drinking a few big mouthfuls of water is still resistant, if we are thirsty and weak now, then we can only take a small sip of water." ”

Xiao Weiwei nodded, took the can, and drank it up.

"Hmm!" As soon as she took the third sip, Xiao Weiwei put down the can, and her face wrinkled into a bitter gourd face.

"My mouth is the most numb, it's too astringent, Qingqing you're too bad, trick me into drinking this thing, 55555555555555. ”

Liu Danqing didn't explain, he took the canned food from Xiao Weiwei's hand, and drank it with his head up, and after a few sips, he put down the canned food, and formed a couple and husband and wife with Xiao Weiwei with one face.

"Hahahahahaha!

"Qing Ye and Weiwei look like they have no love, they are really happy. ”

"Although it is immoral to base my happiness on the young master and the slight pain, I still can't help but laugh happily, wahahaha!"

After slowing down, Liu Danqing waited for the sourness in his mouth to pass before he explained: "The water in the banana trunk is very difficult to drink, but it is the only fresh water we can drink now, so we can only drink as much as we can in one breath, believe me, no one will want to drink a second sip, and they don't have the courage to take a second sip." ”

"Weiwei, the ingredients in this water are the same as those in high-end wine, they are all tannins, you should drink a few sips of high-end wine, so that your mouth will not be comfortable, but your heart will be a little more comfortable. ”

"Q What does it have to do with this?"

"Ah Q has a little more spirit, and it is referred to as Q a little. ”

β€œ...... I'm speechless for this kind of abbreviation. ”

After adding some water, Liu Danqing acted in accordance with the law, made the No. 2 and No. 3 fresh water collection devices, and collected most of the water in the banana trunk into cans, which was enough for most of the canned fresh water, but unfortunately it was a little difficult to drink.

After doing a good job of fresh water collection device, Liu Danqing took Xiao Weiwei to continue to explore.

"We've come to the tip of the island, which is still a sandy beach, and you see, there's a bigger island over there, less than a kilometre from it, and if we don't have enough resources on this island, we can make a raft and try our luck on the other side. In general, larger islands mean more abundant resources. ”

"And if we continue along the beach, we can see in the distance that there is a forest that extends directly into the sea, which is supposed to be a mangrove forest, so we can go there and find a place to camp and set up shelter near here. ”

"The mangrove forest is a place where food is abundant, but it is also a place with a high concentration of mosquitoes, and if we camp too close to the mangroves, countless mosquitoes will drive us crazy. ”

Liu Danqing and Xiao Weiwei returned to the side of the direction near the tip of the island, found a clearing on the edge of the beach without nearby coconut trees, and began to remove weeds.

"There are a few things to be very careful about when building a shelter on a small island. ”

"First of all, you can't be greedy for convenience, build on the beach, although it is very easy to build shelter on the beach, but at high tide, the beach can easily be flooded by the sea, which can be miserable. ”

"Secondly, it is better not to build in dense woods, where the sea breeze will be greatly weakened, so that even if there is a fire, it will be disturbed by mosquitoes and it will be difficult to sleep. ”

"Again, it's better to get the bed off the ground, there will be a lot of ants and bugs in the sand and dirt, these little ones are not hospitable lords, they will fight fearlessly against humans who invade their homes. On top of that, there are sea snakes swimming ashore at night, and we don't want to wake up in the middle of the night and see a sea snake passing us. ”

After clearing the ground, Liu Danqing found a piece of dry driftwood with a light wood texture, cut a small piece of wood with a dagger, and dug a small groove on one side of the board, and a small gap was opened next to the groove.

He found another hard branch, cut it very smooth, sharpened it at one end, and made a horizontal groove at the other.

After doing this, Liu Danqing asked Xiao Weiwei: "Weiwei, I already asked you to cut down the tree with a dagger knife a few days ago, do you remember?"

"Remember, put the dagger diagonally down against the trunk of the small tree, and then hit the dagger with a stick. ”

"Okay, now the dagger is for you, you go and cut off the banana leaves and move them here, and then go and cut down the trunks of some small trees, is there a problem?"

β€œYES,SIR。 β€œ

Xiao Weiwei took the dagger and set off majestically.

The Female Savage Cultivation Program has made another historic progress.
