Chapter 331: Replenishing Fresh Water
Mo Qing thought of the problem of fresh water, looked at the heavy rain outside and said to Jiang Jingyuan: "Brother Jingyuan, this rain is so heavy, I think we will take the rain to replenish fresh water." After receiving rainwater, it can be used after purifying it. I think it's safer than going to the island to find water, you say? β
Jiang Jingyuan nodded, "Then collect the rainwater, such a heavy rain is enough for us to replenish fresh water." β
Mo Qing took out a few large buckets from the space, and took out the large buckets used to store water before. The mouth of the bucket is relatively small, and it can only be filled with buckets.
Jiang Jingyuan placed the buckets directly outside the cabin and let them catch the rainwater. Mo Qing thought about it and took out the battery and two small submersible pumps, put the submersible pump in the bucket outside, used the battery to drive the submersible pump to pump water from the bucket, and connected the water pipe to the large storage bucket to fill it with water. In this way, Jiang Jingyuan does not need to carry a bucket of water to fill the water frequently, so as not to wet his clothes.
Mo Qing asked Jiang Jingyuan to look at the water storage, and she went to the kitchen to cook. Today she is going to make a pot of hot soup, and she will warm up with a hot meal.
The kitchen became warm because of cooking, Mo Qing took out the chicken soup stored in the space and poured it into the pot, and took out the raw hand-rolled noodles that he bought before, and waited for the chicken soup in the pot to boil and start to begin. During this time, she also washed some lettuce and coriander, and put two eggs in the chicken noodle soup to make poached eggs.
When the noodles are cooked, lettuce and coriander are added successively, and then some sesame oil is added, and a pot of fragrant chicken noodle soup is ready.
Mo Qing put the noodles in two large bowls, and then called Jiang Jingyuan to eat, "Brother Jingyuan, it's time to eat." β
Jiang Jing saw that the small submersible pump was no problem for the large storage bucket to store water, so he came to the kitchen to eat.
He took a deep breath of the aroma that filled the kitchen and smiled, "It smells so good." β
Mo Qing put some small pickles in a bowl, sat down at the table and said, "I made a simple chicken noodle soup and ate a bowl of hot to warm up." This weather is best to eat. β
Jiang Jingyuan also sat down, "With your space as the backing, let's take a vacation." Even in such bad weather, I feel at ease. β
Mo Qing smiled: "Of course, with the things in my space as the backing, we will be all right." Let's just think this is a vacation. β
Jiang Jingyuan sighed, "If it weren't for secrecy, there wouldn't be such trouble, we could have taken a plane and other means of transportation to get there." But in the end, you have to spend money to charter a boat, which is not safe. Although it is dangerous for us to do this, we have also done a great degree of secrecy. β
Mo Qing said: "There is no danger, when this storm passes, there will be a few days of travel." I want to see as soon as possible what's wrong with the places marked on the map. Actually, I hope it's not what I guessed. Let's not talk about it, let's eat it. β
The two of them had a beautiful meal of hot chicken noodle soup, and then continued to stock up on rainwater.
The large water storage bucket that was filled, Mo Qing put something to purify the water into the water, and the water could be used after standing for a day. This purified rainwater is definitely no problem and can be eaten with confidence.
Mo Qing had asked Michael to scan the entire island and found no large animals, which made Mo Qing feel a lot more relieved, at least at night when they were resting on the boat, they didn't have to worry about the attack of large beasts.
Although the cabin is safe when the door is closed, it is inevitable that it can be worrying. There are no large beasts on the island, so they can sleep peacefully at night.
The two of them were busy until the evening, filling all ten large buckets of water that they had taken out, and then purifying them all.
Mo Qing turned off the submersible pump, "Let's do this today, and when the water is purified tomorrow, I will put it away and continue to receive rainwater."
After packing up his things, Jiang Jingyuan closed the cabin door. There was only one room with a bed on the ship, and Mo Qing asked Jiang Jingyuan to sleep in the room together.
Jiang Jingyuan was about to lay on the floor, but Mo Qing directly hugged the quilt to the bed, "What if you sleep on the ground on such a cold day and catch a cold?" Don't worry so much about it outside, let's all sleep in the bed. We're engaged unmarried couples, so we don't have to see each other like that. β
Of course, Jiang Jingyuan wanted to sleep in the bed, but he was afraid that Mo Qing would resist in his heart. Now that Mo Qing took the initiative to approve him to sleep in bed, of course he was happy. He knew that it was his fiancΓ©e who felt sorry for him.
Jiang Jingyuan hugged Mo Qing who was making the bed from behind, and smelled the fragrance in her hair, "Thank you Qingqing, I know that Qingqing feels sorry for me." β
Mo Qing turned around and patted Jiang Jingyuan, "The oil cavity is slippery, hurry up and go wash up and go to sleep." We're all tired today, so get some rest. β
The two of them washed up and went to bed.
Jiang Jingyuan was lying on the bed, beside his beloved girl, his heartbeat involuntarily accelerated, and his body began to slowly become hot. He found it more painful to lie in bed.
Jiang Jingyuan turned his head to look at Mo Qing, and by the light of the night light in the room, he could see that Mo Qing was closing his eyes.
Mo Qing felt something and said softly, "Why don't you sleep?" β
Jiang Jingyuan turned sideways and stretched out his arm to wrap his arms around Mo Qing, breathing a little short, "Qingqing, your birthday is coming soon." Let's get married when you're on your birthday. β
It's inhuman torture that he endures all the time.
Mo Qing obviously felt the heat on Jiang Jingyuan's body, she didn't dare to provoke Jiang Jingyuan, she was really afraid that they would go wrong.
She patted Jiang Jingyuan's arm, "I promise you that we will get married when I reach the legal age of marriage." But don't think about it now, go to bed. I'll be busy tomorrow. β
Jiang Jingyuan hugged Mo Qing to his side, "I promised my father-in-law that I wouldn't cross the line before I got married." But I want to sleep with you in my arms. I'm strong enough to warm you up. β
Mo Qing knew that Jiang Jingyuan would not mess around, so she leaned into Jiang Jingyuan's arms with great peace of mind, with such a big stove to warm her, it would definitely not be cold to sleep at night. This can be regarded as huddling together to keep warm.
Jiang Jingyuan hugged Mo Qing and slowly calmed down the anger in his body, they had experienced many dangers this day, and they could be described as physically and mentally exhausted. I don't know when both of them fell asleep.
When the two men woke up in the morning, the storm was still falling, and there was no sign of abating.
After Mo Qing woke up, she obviously felt the changes in Jiang Jingyuan's body, and she quickly got up and ran to wash.
Jiang Jingyuan sat on the bed and looked at Mo Qing who had escaped funny, shook his head and smiled.
Jiang Jingyuan stretched his waist, he had a good rest this night, and he felt refreshed. It would have been better if the storm had stopped sooner. But looking at this chaotic sky, it is estimated that the rain will not stop for a while.
Breakfast is simple porridge, steamed buns, and small pickles, and it is also very good to eat.
After breakfast, Mo Qing and Jiang Jingyuan disposed of the rainwater that had been purified, and after Mo Qing put it into the space, he took out ten large water storage buckets and continued to stock up on fresh water. (End of chapter)
