Chapter 16 The Cage of the Hooded Chicken III
Yu Shao talked to Shen Bing about an ancient shipwreck under the water, and he wanted to catch more useful things, so that Shen Bing would wait for him on the shore, and if he was tired, he would go back to rest first, and after speaking, he plunged into the sea with a fierce man.

Shen Bing was naturally on the reef waiting for Yu Shao to resurface. Yu Shao has deep internal strength, and he can hold his breath more than ordinary people, and he doesn't need to come up to ventilate after going to the sea for a long time. Shen Bing was very anxious, cautious about what risks Yu Shao would encounter, and waited until Yu Shao poked his head out before exhaling deeply. Yu Shao was holding something golden in his hand this time, and there were also some necklaces strung with pearl coral beads, which looked red and white from a distance, and they were extremely dazzling.
Yu Shao swam to the shore, gave a few gold cups and necklaces to Shen Bing, and did not go ashore to rest, but went down to the bottom again.
There are still a lot of items in the shipwreck, but they are all porcelain, gold and silver and other things that will not rot, those broken copper and iron have been rusted, and they will be scattered and can no longer be used, not to mention those wooden things, which have long been turned into a pile of mud, Yu Shao can't move all those things that have not rotted for thousands of years ashore, just look at some utensils that can live and take them away, anyway, there is no need for valuable things on this isolated island.
Yu Shao got a set of fireroom utensils, large clay pots for cooking food, porcelain for water, gold cups and golden chopsticks that were indispensable. With a complete set of living utensils, Yu Shao did not go into the water again, although there are a lot of treasures buried under the water, but Yu Shao is not a greedy person, not to mention that he doesn't know if he can meet passing ships, these things outside the province are simply waste on this isolated island, useless.
After Yu Shao came ashore, Shen Bing brought his clothes and let him put them on. Yu Shao took it and looked at it, his clothes were shining in the sun, and when he touched it with his hand, there was actually a thin layer of white sand on his hand, which seemed to be salt. Yu Shao was very happy to taste it with his tongue, and it was really sea salt. His clothes formed a layer of crystalline salt after the sun blew up. Shen Bing looked at Yu Shao and didn't know why he was so happy, and he also went to Yu Shao's finger to lick it, salty, it was the taste of salt, and when he looked at his body, there was also a layer of hoarfrost on his clothes, it seemed that he no longer needed to eat sashimi every day at sea, and he was fed up with the light and fishy smell, and he could also marinate the fish and wait for the passing ships slowly. Shen Bing was also excited about Yu Shao's discovery.
What made Shen Bing even more excited was. Yu Shao had already lit the sun-dried gunpowder. Yu Shao sprinkled the gunpowder on a dry piece of wood, the wood chip was naturally the fragment of his own ship, Yu Shao's luck internal force hit the two stones against each other, and the sparks flew in an instant, and since the gunpowder was a little bit, he immediately burned the wood chip, turned it into a torch, and handed it to Shen Bing to take to start the fire. Yu Shao, he still needs to take these bottles and cans to that shelter.
Yu Shao hung the pearl coral necklace around Shen Bing's neck, which could be regarded as a heart. Shen Bing was also very happy that Yu Shao was busy with the needs of life. Don't forget to give her a little gift. Shen Bing walked in front with a torch in his hand, and Yu Shao had not been able to take it all on his shoulder, but fortunately, the road was very close, and he could go back and forth a few times without much effort.
Shen Bing quickly lit the pyre that Yu Shao had already piled up. Soon the dryness of the shelter baked abnormally. Yu Shao used broken copper and iron to support a shelf, took the clay pot and put it on it, and the bottom of the jar looked like some unknown characters, and the workmanship was very rough. It shouldn't be something from Middle-earth, maybe it was traded from the natives of the nearby islands, and it was good to use it to make water and tea. It is estimated that there was a lack of tea utensils on the ship at that time, and it can be concluded that the people on the ship were either rich or noble, and the owner of the ship liked a leisurely life, so he exchanged the income with the local natives.
Yu Shao put the precipitated water into the boil. I took a look at the porcelain, I couldn't see it, it was a fine official kiln in the Southern Song Dynasty, and when I looked at those jade-like splins, Yu Shao concluded that it was a fine product of the brother kiln, like gold. Coupled with those golden cups and golden chopsticks, it is a very luxurious life on this small island, and the imperial utensils are nothing more than that, Yu Shao laughed unconsciously. Shen Bing also saw the preciousness of these things, but his mouth hurt and he couldn't tease Yu Shao for a few words, so he could only squint his eyes and smile.
After a while, the steam bubbled up, and when I touched the porcelain of Yu Shao, there were immediately some water droplets. After thinking about these water droplets for a while, Yu Shao began to get excited again, if you boil the seawater, let the steam touch the porcelain, won't there be fresh water to drink? Yu Shao told Shen Bing about this idea, and Shen Bing praised Yu Shao's smart head, and stroked Yu Shao's head with a smile. After a while, Yu Shao was depressed again, how much wood does it cost to boil water like this, the pile of firewood in front of him is only enough for tonight, and if there is no wood, he can't even keep the fire, which makes Yu Shao embarrassed.
Shen Bing knocked on Yu Shao's head, meaning that you will always find a way. Yu Shao nodded, he didn't care about the future, he enjoyed the food first, put the fish and shrimp meat into the clay pot, and shook the salt on his clothes into the clay pot.
The delicate meat of the fish and shrimp was quickly cooked, Yu Shao and Shen Bing took the golden cup, and devoured the fish and shrimp meat with golden chopsticks, and they didn't be late for several days This delicacy is more enjoyable than eating seafood on a big boat, and soon even the soup was drunk.
In order to save fresh water, Yu Shao asked Shen Bing to fill the clay pot with seawater, and when the water boiled, he used cold porcelain to collect water droplets with steam. Although there is water everywhere on the sea, there is no fresh water to drink, and fresh water has become the most precious thing on the sea. Taking water like this is only enough for two people to quench their thirst at most, and it is simply extravagant to cook some food.
In order to keep the fire, the fire cannot be extinguished, and it is okay to boil seawater by the way. But Chai He is another problem, this is a coral reef in a barren land, and the only few roots have been plucked by Yu Shao. Yu Shao could only try his luck on the shore to see if there were any wooden branches floating here.
Yu Shao and Shen Bing have a clear division of labor, there is not even a single bird on the island, so there can be no danger, Yu Shao does not have to look at Shen Bing, he is a man, and he must solve the trouble in front of him.
Yu Shao walked around the island, the wooden branches were difficult to see, and the endless sea water was all around, which made people panic. Yu Shao's mood became heavy, grabbed a handful of gravel luck and threw it into the sea, and threw all the boredom to the sea, ten years of skill is extraordinary, the sand and gravel only wear the sea, and the strength has not diminished, although it is gravel, it still startles a splash. It was clattering above the reef. The fish at sea suffered, and inexplicably received a sharp blow and gave their lives for no reason. Those fish could withstand the attack wave of the feathers, and by the time the splash fell, a large number of white flowers had died on the sea.
Yu Shao looked at the fish indifferently, the food that filled his stomach was readily available, he didn't need to do much, he just spilled his anger. And the beasts in the sea had already smelled blood, and dozens of great white sharks swam around with their heads held high, eating all the small fish that Yu Shao had killed.
Watch as sharks scramble for food. Suddenly thought of something, picked up a stone to transport the internal force, and killed the shark with an orchid robbery finger, but those sharks had no sense of fear, revealing their hideous faces, and flayed the injured accomplices alive, and after a while, only a skeleton of Bai Sensen was left, and Yu Shao was also a little numb in the scalp when he saw this situation. Yu Shao looked at this group of cold-blooded beasts and was even more angry, holding a handful of stones with both hands. was ruthless, and the orchid robbery finger was shot without missing a shot, and all seven or eight sharks were killed, and all of them were fatal. All hit the shark in the head. Yu Shao's fingering of using the Orchid Robbery Finger has never used all his strength, after all, it is against people. But now that he has gone wild against the shark, a large area of the sea has turned into the white belly of the shark, and the remaining few sharks have seen the power of Yu Shao. Knowing that this was a fierce domain, he immediately sank to the bottom of the water and fled towards the deep sea.
Yu Shao scooped up all the dead sharks. Put them on a stone wall and expose them to the sun. He wanted to use shark fat as fuel, which was a good way to save some wood and branches.
Yu Shao cut off a piece of shark fat and returned to the shelter, put it on the fire, and when the water of the fish fat dried, it immediately caught fire, although the smell of burning grease was very unpleasant, but it was better than no gunpowder.
Yu Shao took Shen Bing away and walked around the beach together, letting the grease burn for a while during the day, and there was no need to smell the unpleasant smell. The difficult life had to make Yu Shao start to worry about his fuel savings. Burn with shark grease and survive at least three days.
There was nothing to do in the sea, and soon the day passed.
Yu Shao and Shen Bing can finally hug each other and sleep by the warm fire, and the two no longer remember the rules and precepts that men and women do not kiss, no longer maintain their shy bodies everywhere, no longer twist and pinch, but hug each other generously to keep each other warm, they all pretend to each other in their hearts, not obscene, but so pure.
The next day, when Yu Shao woke up, he smelled the smell of oil, and when he saw it, Shen Bingzhen was boiling oil in that clay pot, which was the grease of those sharks.
Shen Bing looked at Yu Shao with a smile and called out sweetly, "Brother Yuzi." Shen Bing's mouth has recovered. Then he teased: "You sleepy worm, you only woke up now." ”
"What are you doing, you don't want to stir-fry with shark oil."
"No, you put the shark grease directly on the fire, and it naturally stinks. I boiled her into grease, poured her into a golden cup, and rubbed a wick with a strip of cloth, wouldn't it be possible to keep the fire from being extinguished? ”
"I didn't expect it to be so much, it's still you Bingbing Bingbing and smart."
"I remember that the boats were all oil-lit, and I thought I could try shark oil. I've boiled a jar and made a lamp, and it works, the flame is high, you see. Shen Bing pointed to the golden cup on the side and said, "It's just a bit extravagant, use the golden cup to make an oil lamp." ”
"Hahaha, it's really buried in the gold cup, but it's much better to always lie on the bottom of the sea, and it is said that gold always shines, don't you just make the gold cup bright."
"Hehe, that's really the case, Brother Yuzi, you go back to the wreck to find some bottles and cans, I'll boil more grease out, I've torn the wrapping cloth into strips, let's make more oil lamps to make this place bright, do you say okay."
"Well, I'll go."
Yu Shao immediately jumped up and came to the place of the shipwreck refreshed.
Yu Shao was on the beach, but he saw some black spots in the distance, and there seemed to be something floating there. Yu Shaoma swam over, but at first glance it was a corpse, and it was the corpse of the boatmen, including Agui.
Yu Shao's good mood became heavy again, and it seemed that the whole ship was lucky to survive with Shen Bing. Yu Shao sighed, and silently dragged these corpses back to the island one by one, counting only six, and the others may have been washed away by the waves, or they may have been eaten by sharks. Yu Shao examined their corpses and found that they all died from bursting blood vessels, and they must have suffocated to death after the struggle of the mission when they fell into the whirlpool of the sea.
Yu Shao went back and called Shen Bing. Shen Bing saw that these friends who had lived for a while had suffered misfortune, and he was also saddened, so he cried with Yu Shao's body. Shen Bing rarely has some people who can get along with him, but he is gone in an instant, it is really a trick, and the old man is unfair.
Yu Shao and Shen Bing put their bodies away one by one and buried them with stones and gravel, they belong to the sea, let them rest in peace on the coral reef on the sea.
Yu Shao brought a boulder, stood in front of them, stretched out his fingers, and carved an epitaph for them with the strength of an orchid's finger, writing everyone's name. The bleeding from the fingers didn't stop either. These people died for them, and it was also a tragedy caused by their own negligence. Yu Shao felt very guilty in his heart, and dyed the entire epitaph red.
Shen Bing brought three golden cup lamps, placed them in front of the tombstone, and kowtowed to them a few times with Yu Shao. (Want to know more exciting news about "Song of the Wind"?)
