Chapter 207: New Scratches

I sneered in my heart, the so-called no profit is not early, her Song Bailu came this time, it is nothing more than a purpose, but this is also in line with my understanding of her, when she serves me tea and water is out of sincerity, then there is a ghost.

"You can rest assured, since I have promised Yun Wen yesterday that we will first release our suspicions with you, naturally we are still the same as in the past, help each other, what to do, and it is also my duty to protect you, just like Yun Wen and I are sick, and I also need you to provide medical treatment in time, it is a truth, as for Yingchun, as long as she is willing to be obedient, I will do my best to protect her, after all, she has an accident, presumably you can't stay, right?" I said.

This explanation also made Song Bailu completely relieved, and said repeatedly: "Brother Zhou Bo is really a man, which makes my little woman ashamed." ”

"In addition, don't take it too seriously about the rumors that it's a black ghost or something, I've already said what I should say, there's no need to block my psychology, that kind of dirty thing that should have appeared has already appeared, and if it doesn't appear, it will definitely not appear, otherwise why haven't we seen such things since we went ashore? Besides, there is an old saying, don't do bad things, don't be afraid of ghosts knocking on the door, we have no grievances with it, and if you want to find it, you won't look for us. I said.

Yingchun smiled reluctantly, his expression was unnatural, and said: "Yes, what Brother Zhou Bo analyzed is that I promise not to say these terrifying rumors." ”

But after finishing speaking, she and Yun Wen glanced at each other again, and their expressions were intriguing and full of deep meaning.

And since we came back from Xiying City, this morning is the most normal day, there are no sharks, there is no mess, and the four of them are also a little healthy and have no abnormalities, which is really rare.

After waking up in the spring, Bai Lu also finished breakfast, or vegetable meatballs with some cold fungus, and drank a sip of pine needle tea, which is the beginning of a simple day for us mountain people.

The taste was about the same as last night, a simple meal, and after eating, they sat around the table and waited for me to arrange the task.

"Today I plan to arrange it like this, Bai Lu, you are mainly responsible for Yun Wen's physical condition, boil some soup and make up more, if you can, you can also accompany her for a walk, take the horse to walk around the yard, unblock and activate the blood, and then feed Sanfu some food, Yingchun is mainly responsible for watering the farmland to ensure that the humidity and temperature of the soil are not too low, I will filter out the salt for a while, Bai Lu, you look at the rest of the meat pickled, and then I go out, one is also to continue to filter the salt in order to take seawater, The two of them will find something to eat, and see if there are any stranded fish, shells, etc., on the beach, to replenish the grain depot. I said.

The girls nodded, ready to start their day's work.

"The ugly monsters will get me fresh meat to eat, alas, now I can only eat stranded and stinky fish." Song Yingchun muttered, thinking I couldn't hear it.

After the girls went about their duties, I also found an urn that I didn't use very much, broke the bottom, found a piece of cloth that I didn't use often, wrapped it and tied it tightly, and then poured about one-fifth of the fine sand into the urn, found a charcoal that was burning on fire, extinguished it, crushed it, and formed activated charcoal, which was poured into the urn, which was about one-fifth, and finally poured in coarse sand, which occupied two-fifths, and formed a filter.

Find an earthen pot as a water, and then pass the seawater in the general kettle through a filter, use the adsorption of activated carbon to complete the filtration, and then take the earthen pot to the campfire to dry, leaving fine salt.

I have done it before, and now it is not too difficult to do it again, pour the fine salt left into an earthen bowl, about a small layer, about 3~4 money, that is, 15~20 grams, I have heard of a recipe ratio, 10:1.5, you can marinate 150~200 grams of meat, we still have six large pork chops plus three have not eaten a huge piranha, how can there be nearly a kilogram of meat, if this is to be used for pickling, the amount is still not enough.

However, after some calculations, I also roughly figured out the approximate amount needed, the military kettle can probably hold a liter of water, I will bring some more containers today, for example, there is a long earthen urn, the volume is more than twice as much as the military kettle, and the two can be brought together, which can also save the number of times and reduce the risk.

So I put the urn in my backpack, put a military kettle in the compartment, carried a bow, a sword, and put on a cloak, and went out.

The route is the same as yesterday, and fortunately, the wolves do not have this side of the coast, so I went to the coast to get the sea water smoothly, and soon I will be able to return along the way, and the food that should be able to be collected on the way through this is also collected, and there is no need to spend extra time on it, so I quickly returned to the tunnel, and was walking back, holding an earthen urn in my hand, and suddenly saw that there seemed to be three scratches on the wall of the cave under the ever-bright lamp, I approached and touched it, and the shape was very similar to the scar on the body of Sanfu before.

I heard that the shark ugly monster came from the abyss under the tunnel, maybe it was accidentally paddled on the top when it came up one time, when the merman lived with us, and when he fell asleep in the spring, he would jump into the well, and he would disappear, and he would emerge from the tunnel during the day, this is its daily trajectory, so my analysis should be correct.

It's just that I hadn't noticed it before, and I don't know if it was because I was in too much of a hurry.

On the other hand, the scratches on the walls of the cave were so deep that they seemed to erupt with some kind of anger, and I hope I was wrong.

No matter how much, now carrying water, it's strangely cold, let's finish the task at hand first and then think about it carefully.

As I was walking, I suddenly smelled in addition to the smell of dragon incense in the tunnel, there was also a fishy smell, I was slightly alert, and my right hand was unconsciously ready to draw the sword, but then I thought, it seems that I put my own cloak on the merman's corpse yesterday, stained with a lot of blood, and forgot to wash it yesterday, so it smells.

Sure enough, I was overly nervous.

Holding the urn with one hand, I could only climb the ladder with one hand, but fortunately I had trained, and the endurance of my arms was enough, and soon I went up to the post station with one hand, and returned to the house to continue to filter the seawater, and transform the fine salt, this time the amount was about the same, after all were poured into the earthen bowl, the white dew was taken to pickle, and I specially ordered to leave one of the piranhas, no need to pickle, and start stewing and eating tonight, so that the amount of fine salt is just enough to marinate the rest.

In this way, my work is basically over, but there are no stranded fish on the beach, after all, I have picked up everything that should have been picked up on the beach yesterday, how can there be so much free food.

Idle is also idle, and was about to look for Yun Wen to see what she was doing, but heard Bai Lu behind her say: "Sister Yun Wen is walking a horse in the courtyard, the interest is just right, you used to be a little disturbed, sometimes separated a little distance, will be more fresh to each other." ”

That's not letting me go.

"I'm just going to see the situation in the farmland, don't think too much." I said.

"I've seen it, basically there is no problem, although Yingchun has a frizzy temperament, but she is still very serious about doing things, she has never done anything you commanded, hasn't she? It's just that she's not in a good mood right now, and she's been stuffy in the upstairs room, and she doesn't know what to do, and she won't let me in. Bai Lu said.

"Maybe it's just to make some catharsis." I said.

"Well, after all, the merman is also her life-saving benefactor, and it is inevitable that she will be sad if she dies like this, and the only person who can listen to the persuasion of the little sister now is you, Brother Zhou Bo, so there is a reluctant request, I hope to be able to do a little favor, is it okay?" Bai Lu said.

made a big detour, it turned out to be this meaning.

"Okay, it just so happens that I'm also busy asking you to help, yesterday my cloak was stained with the blood of the merman, and it stinks a little, and I bother Bai Lu to help you clean and dry it with soap, can you?" I asked.

Bai Lu put down the pickling work in her hand, looked at me stunned, and said, "I have washed and dried it for you this morning, is there still a fishy smell?" ”

"Washed?" I asked, wide-eyed.
