Chapter 111: Water Problem Solved
Liu Danqing pulled a few rhizomes of white and tender reeds, washed them in the oozing water, and handed two to Xiao Weiwei.
"Weiwei, give, this is a snack, put it in your mouth and chew it, it will be a little sweet, very refreshing. If you can swallow it, it's best, and you can also supplement some starch. ”
Xiao Weiwei turned out the reed root, put it in her mouth and chewed it, nodded and said: "It's really a little sweet, and it has a bit of a cool feeling, it's quite delicious, Qingqing, how do you know that this can be eaten, have you eaten it before?"
Liu Danqing nodded and replied: "Yes, I used to often have no home, sometimes I went to the river to play, and I would pull a few reed roots as snacks to eat, but now the river has been filled, and the canal has also been poured with stone revetments, and I can't eat it if I want to." ”
Xiao Weiwei said enviously: "You were so happy when you were a child, you can still have so much fun, I just go to the training class every day, dance, piano, calligraphy, and there is also a training class called the little host, which is the most pitiful, teaching us to speak in a very strange tone, and later I was criticized by the primary school Chinese teacher, let me speak well, that was the only time I was criticized by the teacher." ”
Liu Danqing laughed when he heard it: "The only time I was criticized by the teacher, so you remember, when I was in elementary school, I was criticized by the teacher twice in three days, so I have no impression." ”
"The water is almost oozing, about 30 centimeters, but we don't want this water, it's too dirty, I'm going to scoop it out first and wait for the next batch of seeping water. ”
"Now, I'm going to use our lunch boxes again, and I can easily scoop all this water out with them. ”
Liu Danqing picked up the lunch box, reached into the puddle, filled a full box of water, and poured it into the reeds next to him.
"The water is the first to seep out, and it brings out all the little dust in the sand, so it's dirty, you see, there's white foam, so I'm going to replace it all, and then the water will be cleaner. ”
Xiao Weiwei picked up another lunch box and wanted to come over to scoop water, Liu Danqing waved her hand and arranged: "Weiwei, let's divide the work, I'll scoop the water, you stand there and pour the water as far away as possible." ”
The two worked together to quickly clean up all the water in the puddle, and then continued to squat in the reeds, eating snacks, that is, reed roots.
Xiao Weiwei tasted more Sven, and finally spit out some old roots.
Liu Danqing is like a reincarnated starving ghost, whether it is young or old, chew it, chew it, and swallow it into the stomach.
In other words, Liu Danqing's mouth is really neat, and he can explain while eating non-stop, so that the audience in the live broadcast room will not be bored.
"Audience friends, to be honest with you, this reed root, like sugar cane, chews some juice is very good, but if you really want to eat it, it is not delicious at all, especially the older roots, which make the throat uncomfortable. ”
"But we are really hungry, we ate a meal at noon yesterday, and it has been more than twenty hours now, and in these twenty hours, more than fourteen of them are on the road, and they are braving the heat, walking either mountain roads or sand roads, and the consumption is very large, so we can have a little opportunity to replenish energy, we must not let go." ”
"Unfortunately, the starch content in the reed roots is so low that it can only be said that it is better than nothing, and we eat some of it while we are fetching water, and if we rely entirely on this for a living, it is not realistic, and we have to find more food sources. ”
Like refugees, the two of them ate up the freshly plucked reed roots, then plucked a few more reeds, cut off some of the tender rhizomes, rinsed them in a puddle, and stuffed them into their mouths.
After a while, the water in the puddle reached more than half, and with Xiao San's lens, it can be seen that the puddle is now very clear, without a trace of impurities, and even Liu Danqing rinsed the reed roots just now without leaving any turbidity floating.
Liu Danqing took out the bottle of mineral water that had already been drunk, sank into the puddle, filled a bottle of water, drank it directly, and handed it to Xiao Weiwei.
"Drink it, this water is very clear, no bitterness, very clean, it is groundwater, in this place, there is no pollution, the ground is very clean, not to mention dirty things in the sediment, not even microorganisms. ”
Xiao Weiwei took the mineral water bottle, took a sip of it, and then handed her empty bottle to Liu Danqing.
"It's delicious, Qingqing, how about we build a mineral water factory here? This water is much better than the water of the Alps and Evian. ”
Liu Danqing filled the bottle again, and said while pouring: "You just dream, how much money do you give people to this place for a month for people to come?"
"We're going to stay here for a while, drink a little more water, fill the bottles, go out and explore the surroundings, look for shelter, preferably a fire, and find some food. ”
"Solving the water problem in the Gobi, our wilderness survival is half completed, I really want to drink this bottle of water in one go, but I have to restrain myself, my body has been in a state of water shortage for a long time, and I have adjusted my physiological functions to the water shortage gear, if I drink water now, then it is likely to be nausea and vomiting. ”
"This is also a problem that must be paid attention to in the wilderness, no matter what time it is, you must not be in a hurry, and you must always protect your health. ”
Xiao Weiwei took a sip of water, saw that Liu Danqing had finished speaking, and then said: "It's so uncomfortable, I really want to drink this bottle of water in one go, but according to what Qingqing said, I can't drink water violently, I can only drink it slowly in small sips, this is really a torment." It's like facing a piece of chocolate mousse, but only giving you an ear spoon and letting you dig and eat little by little, little by little, painfully. ”
Xiao Weiwei's metaphor is very good, at least the female audience understands it.
"Meng Meng didn't give Danqing and Weiwei a fighter jet - Sister Weiwei, I know your pain!"
"The invincible beautiful girl Fei Fei gave Danqing and Weiwei an early warning plane - Sister Weiwei's metaphor is very vivid, next time I try this way of eating and experience it. ”
"Sisters, I just gave Danqing and Weiwei a spaceship - finally, I don't envy you anymore. ”
"Sister is a spaceship given to Danqing and Weiwei by the trench door - distressed for an hour~~~. ”
It took more than ten minutes, and the two of them each drank a bottle of water, during which several reeds were wasted, Liu Danqing refilled the mineral water bottles of the two and stood up.
"Okay, our body's water and electrolytes are basically back to normal, and now, we're going to go out and explore and see what resources are around us and what's at stake. ”
"Before leaving, I'm going to cover our puddle with reeds, mainly to be dusty, and the wind here is all over the sky, and I don't want the next time we come to get water, the puddle will already be a pool of muddy water. ”
The puddle was tightly blocked with reeds, and the two walked out along the path they had stepped on.
Walking outside the reeds, Liu Danqing pointed to the northeast direction and said: "Look, there is a corner over there, and the green disappears from the corner, let's go over there now to see if the underground river has turned a corner, or if it has gone deeper underground." ”
