Chapter 212: Faith in Survival
Over the next few days, no boats were found passing by, and the charcoal had long since run out, and now the boats were already burning to get water.
The edge of the ship has been cut off a lot, and the original height of 1.2 meters has reached the current centimeter, and now the ship can no longer be reduced, and the charcoal distillation method has come to an end.
Fresh water is already extremely scarce, and the charcoal distillation method, which is the largest way to obtain fresh water, will not be available, which will make it even worse for future generations.
Everything can be known by comparison, Wu Yi didn't drink a sip of water for a few days when he first ended up on the desert island, but at least there are many plants on the desert island that contain water.
For example, the banana tree I found at the beginning contains a lot of water in the trunk, although the water in it can only be obtained by chewing, and from time to time it causes pain in the temples because of chewing, but it is also to replenish the water of life.
Now adrift on the vast sea, there is not a boat, there are no islands, not even a garbage bottle or anything like that.
Wu Yicai felt extremely desperate again, the fresh water in the boat had been drunk, and now the only way to obtain fresh water resources was three solar stills.
And this new energy has a big limitation, that is, it has no use in the case of cloudy days, and now the sky is covered with dark clouds, obscuring the sky.
The air was very oppressive, there was a hint of dryness and heat, it may be raining, but I didn't notice that it was dripping again.
"I'm so thirsty...... "I haven't drunk fresh water for a long time, and Han Lingshuang has already begun to become dehydrated.
Distillation is still the only way to obtain fresh water, but the only way to make fire is a magnifying glass, which cannot be used to make fire in the absence of the sun.
The lack of water is not only Han Lingshuang, Wu Yicai has not drunk water for 3 days, his lips are full of dry cracks, and his throat is sore and dry.
Severe dehydration caused him to faint a little, his eyes were dark when he walked, and the worst thing was that it was very hot now, but there was not a trace of sweat coming out.
When human beings are severely dehydrated, the self-protection system is turned on, and the water in the sweat glands will not be retained due to overheating.
If you don't absorb the water quickly, the difficulty will lead to heat stroke because the heat cannot be discharged, and heat stroke will be waiting for them here!
"Whoa......
Wangcai is really awesome, he has been drinking his own urine since a few days ago, and the urine contains inorganic salts and a lot of water.
Drinking urine will quench thirst and at the same time replenish the body with a lot of water......
"Han Lingshuang, listen to me. Wu Yicai sighed, and then said seriously, "Now that we have reached the end of the road, we must make certain attempts in order to survive." ”
"Don't say it, kill me, I won't drink my own urine!" Han Lingshuang looked resolute, the main thing is that this girl comes to the aunt, and it is not just urine that comes out.
"Why don't we split it in half?" Wu Yi took out the urine he had stored for a day.
"You taste it first, and I'll drink it if it's delicious!" Han Lingshuang looked pained, and now the severe lack of water has begun to threaten his life.
In order to alleviate this smell, Wu Yicai put the urine in the seawater, and the cold seawater can delay the smell of urine.
"Can this thing taste good?" Wu Yicai opened the bottle, and a riotous smell poured into his nose, "This taste, it's so sour!"
Just tasted it, and almost made Wu Yi spit it out, and the product was still very bad, smacking his lips and tasting the urine.
"It tastes great!" Wu Yicai stretched out his thumb and smiled bitterly as he endured the disgusting feeling. "Wife, just ask you, drink some, although it doesn't taste good, but drinking it can save your life. ”
Han Lingshuang felt a little moved by Wu Yicai's behavior, two lines of tears oozed from her bloodshot eyes, and she nodded heavily.
As if he had made a big decision, Han Lingshuang raised his head violently and began to gulp the yellow smelly liquid with a little foam.
Han Lingshuang poured it violently, she tried her best not to taste it, she just poured it into her mouth with her breath closed, although this thing tasted like sea water, it could indeed quench her thirst.
", drink less, leave me a little!" Seeing Han Lingshuang pouring violently, Wu Yicai stared at the less and less urine.
The two of them divided half a liter of urine equally, quenched their thirst a little, and the last dignity had been put down, and the two glanced at each other, both shaking their heads helplessly.
Sleeping is the best way to save energy, and the two of them went into the cabin, closed their eyes, and waited for the urine to circulate again.
Of course, the most long-awaited thing is that it can rain......
However, nature seemed to be playing tricks on them, and the originally cloudy sky turned sunny again, but unfortunately, the sun did not come out for a long time, and it has been hiding behind the clouds.
There is no sun, and all the water intake devices are decorations, but in the cabin, Wu Yicai found another thing that can take water.
Big red dates!
This is a large red jujube made by Han Lingshuang, because the water in the jujube is evaporated after drying, it tastes very sweet, but it is also extremely dry.
Protein and sugar are ingested into the human body, and a lot of water is needed when decomposing.
But it can be used to get water, or to be exact, to convert seawater into fresh water!
"These big red dates can replenish us with some fresh water, although not a lot!" Wu Yicai carried a basket with about 1 catty of red dates.
"But it's all sun-dried, and there's no moisture in it. Although Han Lingshuang drank a little yellow liquid, she still felt dizzy and feverish, which was a symptom of dehydration.
"Jujubes are extremely high in sugar and are very dry, so if you soak them in seawater, the dried flesh will be like a sponge, absorbing a lot of water. Wu Yicai swallowed a mouthful of saliva with difficulty, lubricating his dry and smoking throat.
"While the pulp absorbs water, the salt in the seawater will be filtered by the sugar brought by the pulp, which means that the jujubes that have been soaked in the sea water are all fresh water. Wu Yicai nodded affirmatively, although junior high school chemistry is not good, but the specific theory is roughly like this.
The red dates were soaked in water, and it took a long time to absorb the full water, and then Han Lingshuang slowly put them into his mouth, trying to absorb the water inside.
"Hmm...... It's amazing!" Han Lingshuang's eyes couldn't help but light up, and exclaimed, "It's really freshwater!"
"Well, it's just that this amount is a little less...... Wu Yicai wrapped the water-soaked red dates in a mosquito net cloth, and then twisted them hard, squeezing out a lot of reddish-brown fresh water.
"Huh?" Han Lingshuang pointed to a spot that suddenly appeared at sea level, "Is that a boat?" or an island?"
