Chapter 982: The Psychology of Tenacity
(The business trip was extended to the 17th, vomiting blood)
After a general tour of this so-called research base, the hunters had to sigh.
The third group is worthy of being a team of scholars, with flexible brains and many methods.
With the thinking of a normal craftsman, or rather, with the thinking of a normal human being.
A flying ship after a fall, with the pod remaining largely intact, must have disarmed the airbag and tried its best to flatten and fix the cabin to obtain a complete and stable living area.
To put it bluntly, it's like those houseboats in the stronghold of the stars.
Can. Perhaps it was more strenuous to do so, and scholars were better at using their brains than hands, so they chose to take a different path.
Instead of giving up the airbags, the scholars moved all the remaining airbags to the broken stern.
Under the action of the buoyancy of the airbags, the entire cabin was hoisted upright and turned into a head-and-tail posture.
Then they activated the dragon lance, which was located in the bow of the ship.
The dragon lance was inserted into the ground like a wedge, fixing the hull, and with the upward pull of the airbag, the upside-down houseboat was completed without a single nail or hammer.
The dragon lance used to hold the hull in place was the only point of contact between the research base and the ground, which may not seem very stable, but it had a clear benefit.
- It can effectively prevent small creatures such as insects from crawling into the houseboat and causing damage to valuable research materials and books.
Of course, the small contact surface also has a disadvantage, that is, it is not stable enough, and it will sway when a gust of wind blows.
Fortunately, scholars have a solution.
Through precise calculations, they extended multiple ropes from the most suitable position on the houseboat at the most suitable angle to firmly anchor the houseboat to the surrounding coral reefs.
Although it looks like it is crumbling and will fall at any moment.
In fact, this inverted research base is quite sturdy and reliable, and more than a decade later, it is still standing firmly.
The inside of the research base is also interesting.
Due to its almost vertical nature, the space inside the base is less like a "house" and more like a "tower".
The Tower of Knowledge.
As far as the eye can see, there are bookcases and books, as well as a staggering amount of information papers neatly stacked.
"So much?!" Anhill exclaimed.
It's hard to imagine how much valuable knowledge is recorded in these materials.
Gordon stroked the homemade paper that was not very smooth, the texture was still a little dry and brittle, and it could only be said that it barely met the writing conditions, and he couldn't help but ask the head of the third phase curiously:
"Where did you get all this paper and ink? This amount"
"Nature has given us everything." The head of the third phase of the regiment smiled and said: "The ink comes from the ink of the flying black hat, but the ink is too thin and the color is too light.
Our people tried and tested to find the right auxiliary materials, and finally chose the black oil secreted by the bone hammer.
In the right proportions, the extremely viscous black grease can effectively improve the consistency, color and consistency of the black hat ink, and finally make the ink that we use every day.
By the way, this recipe was tried out by Ah Jian little by little, and it is the lazy guy who led the way for you. ”
"Actually? Can't see the meow at all." Pork Chop muttered quietly.
The leader of the third phase of the regiment smiled and continued, "The paper comes from the Valley of Miasma.
In the valley of miasma, you can see some mesh that resembles animal fascia, but in fact, it is a mixture of plants and fungi after the miasma has corroded.
They are dry and brittle, but they are good fiber, and we take them and mash them, add the gum extracted from the coral, boil them, dry them evenly, and finally make them into paper. ”
Gordon fell silent, and Hayatta opened her mouth, and finally could only sigh with heartfelt emotion, "It's amazing."
The materials in front of us are the results of the hard work of the scholars of the third group who have overcome various difficulties and studied them over the past ten years.
If there was an opportunity to transport them out and to the Old World, it would have caused a huge stir in the academic community.
However, before all this, the efforts of these trapped scholars are beyond anyone's imagination for those who have not experienced it firsthand.
Even Gail, who described Anhill as a "hopelessly illiterate" person, inevitably has a deep respect for these scholars who are in danger and still do not forget their "curiosity" intentions.
"What a cow!"
Gail gave a thumbs up, her admiration was sincere, but the sand content was a little higher.
The head of the third phase of the regiment smiled, and did not care about Gail's words, raised his pipe, and said to the hunters:
"It's almost time for dinner, you came here over the mountains and mountains, you should have been entertained, but unfortunately we don't have any good things here, the amount is full, but it's relatively monotonous, I hope you don't dislike it."
"It's okay, we can eat anything!" Gail waved his hand with a big smile.
Sandstone, who had always been silent, looked at her with a slightly subtle expression.
Anhill was also curious.
Just now, he deliberately observed the physical state of everyone in the research base.
How to say, full of energy, ruddy complexion, there is no imaginary lack of food, or malnutrition caused by an unbalanced diet.
How?!
Although the terrestrial coral plateau is rich in biological resources, it does not look like these scholars can obtain a large amount of food at once through hunting.
Gather? Probably not.
It takes a lot of time and energy to collect, and at least half of the people need to be arranged to collect full-time food, so that it is possible to collect enough food for everyone to eat well.
With the temperament of these scholars, even if they are hungry, they will not "waste" so much time on their stomachs.
"Your main way of getting food is planting?" Walking on the road to the dining area with the leader of the third phase of the group, Anhill couldn't help but ask.
This sounds outrageous, but with elimination, it seems to be the only possibility.
The head of the third phase looked at him, "It's close, but it's not planting, in fact, it may be more appropriate to say 'breeding'." ”
As she spoke, she said to the scruffy scholar named Ah Kin, "Go and bring some food." ”
"Really, call me again."
Ignoring Ah Jian's complaints, the head of the third phase added: "Remember to be more distracted, the hunters eat a lot, three to five times the number of ordinary people. ”
"Yes, yes, yes."
Sitting down at the table, the hunters began to wait curiously, and after a long time, Ah Jian returned with a huge basket.
"Hey!"
He paddled the basket full of food on the table, and said while distributing the bowls to everyone: "Let go of your stomach and eat as you like, there are many more, if you don't have enough to eat, I'll get it again." ”
The head of the third phase took the wooden spoon, lifted the sleeves of his robe gracefully, and distributed the food.
The dishes that were served in front of everyone were granular objects, the small ones were finer than sesame seeds, the large ones were about the same as peas, and the color was mostly milky white or orange, soft and soft, with a translucent gelatinous texture.
"This is, the egg of something, right?" Gordon asked curiously.
"Uh-huh." Ah Jian also filled some for himself, rolled up a spoonful with a wooden spoon, stuffed it into his mouth, and said vaguely:
"The nutrition is comprehensive, rich in all the nutrients that the human body needs every day, and it is easy to obtain, and you can get a lot of food that you can't eat with a little effort, and the taste is not unpalatable.
Over the years, we've almost exclusively eaten this. ”
"So, what exactly is this?" Anhill, who was full of "worm eggs", asked cautiously.
The head of the third phase of the regiment smiled lightly, "This is the staple food of most small and medium-sized creatures in the land coral plateau, the eggs of polyps. ”
Ps.
Polyp eggs are a staple food for many organisms on the terrestrial coral mesas, and this is an official design.
As for whether people eat it or not, I really can't think of anything that the group of people at the research base can eat in twenty years, except for this thing.
