The stone fungus soup is very fresh and the stone fungus itself tastes very good.
But Lin Qianxing didn't eat more.
Even if he didn't feel it was poisonous, he still had to be cautious when trying it himself.
After eating a little, Lin Qianxing went to do other things.
At this moment, a prompt appeared in front of Lin Qianxing.
[Tip: The domestication degree of your domesticated stone-eared rat has been slightly improved, and the current domestication degree is [Unfamiliar].]
Seeing the prompt, Lin Qianxing glanced at the white-haired mice in the wooden box, and then looked away.
This proves that his domestication is effective.
Then just continue to provide them with food.
Time goes forward a few days.
Lin Qianxing confirmed that the stone fungus was non-toxic and edible, so he picked more stone fungus.
At the same time, he also caught a dozen stone-eared rats and fed them in the rat pen he opened.
It is worth mentioning that Lin Qianxing discovered that stone fungus and luminous moss will grow very quickly as long as they are in a humid environment.
Especially luminous moss, if thrown directly on a wet wall, it can double in size overnight.
Although it is unclear what the purpose of this thing is, it is good even if it is just used to decorate the scenery.
The growth of stone ear is slightly slower, and under suitable conditions, it will take at least seven or eight days to grow a stone ear as big as a thumb.
In addition, in addition to water, they also need some fertilizer.
Lin Qianxing observed that the stone-eared rats he fed would actively leave some stone ears for planting and excrete around them.
So Lin Qianxing threw the fish bone powder he didn't use and all kinds of useless kitchen waste to Shi Er as fertilizer.
Not to mention, they do grow much faster this way.
Sitting on the bed, Lin Qianxing held a bowl of jellyfish and pea fish soup in his hand.
Lin Qianxing felt much more comfortable as the sweet and fragrant taste entered his mouth.
Looking at the wooden bowl in his hand, Lin Qianxing thought he could make some pottery bowls if he had time.
Two days ago, he discovered soil in a place that was very suitable for being fired into containers.
Speaking of which, it would be great if there was glass. In that case, the brewing process and chemical experiments would be much easier.
And he can also polish telescopes.
Lin Qianxing felt uncomfortable when he thought that he still lacked so many things.
"Lin Qianxing, Lin Qianxing, how can you be so lazy? The industrial revolution has not yet started, how can you just lie down?" Lin Qianxing cursed himself, and then said: "Well, it's decided, let's start working hard tomorrow."
The time comes the next day.
After Lin Qianxing opened his eyes, he said feebly: "One more day of rest."
After resting like this for three days, he finally started to wash out sand in the river.
The purpose of scouring the sand is simple.
The sediment at the bottom of the river is rich in minerals.
Many of them can be used directly, and he can also use this to determine what the various metal minerals contained in the river are.
After three days of scouring the sand, Lin Qianxing finally smelted some metal.
However, there are still many impurities and it appears to be relatively brittle, making it impractical.
But he finally took the first step.
In the future, as long as we continue to improve the process and increase the temperature in the furnace, we will definitely be able to burn out suitable metal.
While Lin Qianxing continued to wash in the sand, an accident happened.
He licked the stone with some crystals in front of him.
The bitter and salty taste goes straight to the brain.
"Huh?" Lin Qianxing's eyes widened and his expression became subtle.
what does that mean?
Is there salt in the upper stream?
In other words, there is salt somewhere upstream!!
After learning the news, Lin Qianxing, who had been silent for so long, could still hold back. He immediately picked up the manuscript and prepared to open a cave and head to the upper reaches of the river.
The underground river was raging, and Lin Qianxing could only go along the mountain walls on both sides to the source.
With the blessing of the hand of heaven, and now that he has recovered from his injuries, he is even more familiar with doing this, so his digging efficiency is not low.
It only took less than five days for Lin Qianxing to advance a distance of more than 3,000 meters.
Once here, many naturally washed caves appeared one after another. Even if Lin Qianxing didn't have to dig them, he could still move forward along the road.
Along the way, Lin Qianxing finally came to a huge lake where groundwater was constantly gushing out.
Lin Qianxing replaced the mask on his face with a new one, looked around with a bone lamp, and found that the walls here were covered with the kind of crystals he had seen before.
He licked it a little and confirmed his guess, these were salt.
And it wasn't just salt, Lin Qianxing also found some dark and shiny crystal blocks.
He broke off a piece and looked at it, and found that it looked like coal.
However, Lin Qianxing did not dare to do a combustion test on the spot, so he could only mine a little and take it back to try again.
Immediately, he took the things here back to his place of residence to try them out.
Sure enough, those are coal.
At least it's some kind of ore that can be burned.
With them as burning materials, the temperature of the stove can be improved again.
It is also worth mentioning that Lin Qianxing finally had his first meal with salt.
Three more days passed.
Lin Qianxing took out the tempered metal fishhook from the stove and raised the corners of his mouth slightly.
[Paralysis: Prey injured by this hook will be temporarily paralyzed.]
Willows planted unintentionally create shade.
He originally just wanted to build something casually to see if the technology would work, but who knew it would actually be shipped.
Lin Qianxing used this thing to assemble a fishing rod and went to the stone bridge to try it out.
An hour later, Lin Qianxing, with a dark face, grabbed a fish from the fish cage and hung it on the hook.
The fish, which was struggling endlessly, twitched once it was hung on the hook and then became stiff and motionless.
Lin Qianxing lifted it up casually.
Lin Qianxing seemed very satisfied with this fishhook.
In addition, Lin Qianxing made new discoveries during the process of assembling the fishing rod this time.
The fishing rod and fishing line themselves are only excellent, but after assembling the ultimate fishhook, the whole becomes the ultimate level, and the ultimate skills still exist.
Does this mean that a single high-grade material can be used to improve the overall level of the tool?
Lin Qianxing then tried some more and found that this was indeed possible, but by the same token, low-level materials would evenly distribute the effects of high-level materials.
Therefore, if a piece of supreme material is combined with inferior materials and assembled into a tool, it is impossible to say that it will not have the supreme skill and will directly become an ordinary tool.
At the end of the fourth month of travel.
Lin Qianxing officially unlocked the metal material and produced the first version of the steam engine.
At this time, when Lin Qianxing was riding his tricycle at night, he encountered a hunting team out of Yeliu City.
The moment the two parties met, they were both stunned.
"Are you Xiao Lin?" Lian Shi, the leader of the hunting team, exclaimed.
Lin Qianxing got off the tricycle and said, "It's me."
After hearing the answer and looking at Lin Qianxing's new clothes and appearance, the four members of the hunting team looked at each other in disbelief.
"I didn't expect you to be alive. Have you found a new tribe nearby?" Team member She Zhuang asked.
It was he who led Lin Qianxing out hunting.
He can be regarded as Lin Qianxing's senior.
It was precisely because he led Lin Qianxing out hunting several times that he felt that Lin Qianxing had some experience, so he chose to trust Lin Qianxing and let him go hunting alone.
Who would have known that Lin Qianxing would never return after leaving.
He also blamed himself for this in private for a long time.
Now that he can see Lin Qianxing alive, he is naturally happy.
"I didn't find a new tribe, but I fell into a place that day, saw a god statue, and got some special powers from it," Lin Qianxing made up a temporary story.
To put it simply, it was a blessing in disguise that he got a golden finger and survived.
Several people were dubious about Lin Qianxing's words.
The reason why I still half believed it was because Lin Qianxing was riding a tricycle and he himself was still alive.
Lin Qianxing also understood that it was useless to say anything without evidence, so he even invited a few people to his home to have a look.
The four people heard this and nodded in agreement.
Immediately Lin Qianxing rode a bicycle, followed by four people, and soon returned to his place of residence.
Before entering the cave, several people were surprised.
Densely packed pod beans grow everywhere, forming an alternative sea of plants.
In fact, this was not planted by Lin Qianxing. The beans he actually planted were on the platform field he opened. These were plant seeds that accidentally rolled down when he harvested.
Because they grew so fast, Lin Qianxing ignored them, so within a month they were all over the place.
Immediately, Lin Qianxing used a metal scraper to knock open the boulder blocking the door, and the boulder turned into small stones and floated in the air.
Seeing this scene, Lian Shi and the others finally began to believe what Lin Qianxing had boasted before.
Lead the four people inside and put the tricycle away.
Lin Qianxing closed the cave door and took them all the way inside to visit.
Luminous moss growing all over the cave walls illuminates the path, and all kinds of wooden furniture are available inside.
In the kitchen, dried fish, rock rat meat, rock fungus and other foods are neatly arranged, along with starch, sugar, salt and other seasonings.
Lian Shi picked up the kitchen knife made by Lin Qianxing. The sharp edge shone with a cold light. He felt that it was much better than the weapons made in Yeliu City.
Lin Qianxing handed each of the four people a bowl of fish soup in a porcelain bowl, and then said: "The conditions are still a bit crude, so just make do with it."
The four of them held up the bowls and drank the fish soup. After looking at each other, they quickly drank everything.
[Tip: Your people of the same race feel satisfied after eating the beans you planted, and your planting attributes +0.01.]
[Tip: Your fellow race ate the stone fungus you planted and felt satisfied, your planting attribute +0.03.]
[Tip: Your fellow tribesmen used the porcelain bowl you made and were satisfied. Your construction attribute +0.02.]
[Tip: Your fellow species ate the meat of the stone-eared rat you tamed and felt satisfied. Your taming attribute +0.01.]
Lin Qianxing's mouth twitched. He had really guessed it. If he wanted to improve his attributes, he had to interact with other people.
