Chapter 43: The Waves Are Silent

But that's an exploration after the current work is done.

The first thing Su Xing had to do now was to set up a temporary base here, set up his fishing equipment, and prepare to start his fishing plan.

The three Black Iron Mechmen who were supposed to be coolies had sunk to the bottom of the sea, and even Ragher couldn't sense their presence at all. There are two possibilities, the distance between the two sides is too far, or they have been crushed by the pressure of the deep sea.

However, judging from the current situation, the probability that the black iron robot has been completely destroyed is still relatively large.

Looking at the dozen or so large metal components dragged out of the cabin, Su Xing felt that before he started work, his hands and feet already had an urge to escape.

The reason is simple, none of the components used to build the base for coastal fishing weigh less than 500 kilograms.

Even now that his body had been completely digitized, Su Xing couldn't combine these things before his stamina was exhausted. Although the full digitization brought about Su Xing's ability to maintain his best condition as long as his stamina was not exhausted, after trying to drive a fixed column into the sand and gravel with the dwarves, Su Xing still wisely gave up.

Well, it's not that he wants to be lazy, it's just that the job is too much for him.

Think about it, to drive a ten-meter-long metal pillar into the ground at least five meters underneath, what a desperate task it must be for a human who is more than one meter seven tall and a dwarf who is no more than one meter two tall, ah, and a puppy less than thirty centimeters. Even though the column was made up of two parts, five meters tall was still too high for them.

And they don't have any lifting equipment yet.

The two of them and a dog squatted on the edge of the metal components, very annoyed.

If the Black Iron Mechmen were still around, with their natural strength and ability to levitate, it would not be easy to build this thing.

It's not that there is no way, the simplest and most direct way Su Xing can think of is to dig a pit. Dig a hole more than 10 meters from the coast, dig a hole with a depth of about 5 meters, and then erect the pillars.

However, after Lagher calculated the amount of earthwork that needed to be moved and showed it to him, Su Xing's face was like earth, and he didn't mention this stubble again.

Just digging one of these holes requires moving more than 100 cubic meters of earth, and backfilling is carried out afterwards. This is difficult for Su Xing and his party, who only have two people, one dog and three laborers.

And this is not just once, but at least four times to repeat this work in order to lay the four fixed pillars of the base.

For a while, Su Xing actually fell into an embarrassing dilemma.

If enough materials can be found on this island, Lager can make some improvisation robots, but the problem is that at the moment, except for white sugar, which is maltose, he can't make a candy man.

After struggling for a while, Su Xing stood up and decided to find a place to build a settlement on the island first, and deal with this day first. As for why he didn't spend the night on the ship, Su Xing always had an indescribable awe of this ocean, maybe he didn't know when, a huge ocean species would rush out of the bottom of the sea?

After tossing for so long, and his stomach was a little hungry, Su Xing picked three more coconuts from the tree. This time it was a different taste, one was a big bowl of fruit cereal, another was a smorgasbord of desserts, and the other was a thick maple syrup. In a word, sweet! So much so that Su Xing had to run back to the boat and get a few packets of dried fish and crispy bones to adjust the taste, otherwise he would be tired to death.

On the beach where Su Xing and they landed, the beach had completely turned into land at a distance of more than a hundred meters, and after eating and drinking, Su Xing and Lagher were careful and on guard, approaching the extremely lush green vegetation that grew.

This is a number of plants that Su Xing can not recognize at all, unlike the coconut tree with a distinct shape, their appearance can be said to be featureless, for Su Xing's plant blindness, it is even more difficult to distinguish which is which, can only roughly name them as a small one, a medium one and a large one.

The smaller one grows close to the surface of the ground, and it looks like some kind of moss or lichen, its color is yellow and green, and the boundary between the pieces is clearly divided into countless square pieces. With his previous experience, Su Xing poked it with his cane, it was soft and flowed out a little umami-filled liquid, of course, this was the conclusion reached by a dwarf with a good tooth after tasting it.

Pick up a piece from the ground and put it in your mouth, bite it gently, the mellow and salty taste immediately moistens the tongue that has just been overly poisoned by the sweetness, this thing is actually a high-quality braised dried tofu, the yellow is the five spices, and the green is spicy.

Then, it is only natural that the dwarf bush in the middle number is an excellent refreshing candy stick, and that the fruit on the larger tree is a variety of buns of different flavors.

......

"I think we might be able to find more and more good food. ”

While chewing on the candy, Su Xing put up the wooden stick in his hand, and Lagel immediately began to nail it with a coarsely processed wooden board.

"But Raguel, do you think there will be enough materials in this mountain to make a robot?"

The small wooden house has begun to take shape with the cooperation of the two men, and the four wooden walls have been erected, and the roof is only needed to be fixed.

The dwarf thought for a moment, "Maybe, if it's just to make some simple robots, then there aren't many materials needed, of course, the robots made in this way can only be used for two or three days at most and will be completely damaged, but it's more than enough to solve the current problem." ”

Su Xing pushed a wooden plank onto the roof with a strong force, "That's fine, at least as long as I put up this base, I can start fishing." ”

Then, night fell.

The warm bonfire burned very vigorously in the wooden house with an area of only about 10 square meters, and the two and a dog sat around the fire, eating hot sweet porridge and bread and dried tofu. As for those compressed biscuits, Su Xing only brought one box ashore in case of emergency.

"Speaking of which, I always felt like there was something missing from this island. ”

Su Xing scratched his face, a little confused.

"It's obviously a normal island, what's missing?"

At night, there was silence all around, except for a few unknown bugs barking in the woods.

Suddenly, there was a commotion outside the hut, as if something had jumped out of the sea, and then again, as if it had fallen back into the sea.

Su Xing slapped his thigh: "I know, there is less sound of the waves!"
