The charcoal in the mound had been smoldering all night. When Su Bai woke up in the early morning, there was still green smoke coming out of the mound.
Now it has stopped.
It seems that the firewood inside should have completed the transformation process into charcoal.
Su Bai stretched his hand through the opening on the mound of sealed earth and grabbed two dark things from inside.
This thing is completely ink-colored, covered with cracks, and has a very brittle texture. Fine black slag will fall off when touched with your hands.
Su Bai took two pieces of charcoal in his hand and knocked it, feeling the feel and sound, and nodded with satisfaction:
“Nice charcoal.”
"Although it is still far from perfect, it is already very rare to have such charcoal under such limited conditions in the wilderness."
Barrage:
【Wow! This charcoal looks very good!】
[Are there any viewers in the live broadcast room of Bei Ye De Ye yesterday? How does the charcoal compare between the two sides? 】
[I was there yesterday! Judging from the appearance, the two sides are pretty much the same, but the smoke from Mr. Bei and Mr. De’s charcoal was a bit heavy when they burned, and the two veterans were quite unhappy.]
There was still a small part of the mulberries picked in the morning, which exceeded the carrying capacity of the wine-making container, so they were left behind.
Su Bai lit two pieces of charcoal, spread the remaining mulberries flat on the bamboo basket where they were dried last time, and hung them above the charcoal.
In the live broadcast, it can be clearly seen that the lit charcoal is burning with a dark red light, and there is no open flame.
As the dark red light burned, only wisps of white smoke emerged from the charcoal, which soon disappeared without a trace.
The barrage exclaimed:
【Nothing to smoke!】
[From this point of view, the charcoal prepared by Su Bai this time is even better than that prepared by De Ye and Bei Ye!]
Looking at the burning effect of the charcoal, Su Bai nodded with satisfaction, then filled some wrist-thick firewood into the mound and smoldered it again to prepare the charcoal.
The two of them had lunch, took a short rest, and then took the snacks up the mountain again to continue picking ripe mulberries.
Unlike the small bamboo tubes used for making wine, the bamboo baskets for baking dried mulberries are easy to make and can be reused in a short time, so the two of them can process far more dried mulberries than mulberry wine.
After picking a basket full of mulberries, Zhao Xinqing placed them in front of the snack guy, gently stroked the snack guy's cow face, and said:
"It's been really hard on you these past few days."
"Eat more mulberries to supplement your nutrition."
The snack connoisseur lowered his head and sniffed the sweet and sour mulberries in the bamboo basket, and took a few tentative bites. His eyes lit up, and the mulberries burst out loudly.
Barrage:
【emmmmmmmmm……】
[If a snack foodie eats like this, he will suddenly feel that there are not so many mulberries on the branches...]
[Snack foodie is really good at eating. Just put something that is about to go bad into her mouth! 】
Su Bai stood on the mulberry tree picking mulberries. Looking down at this scene, he smiled and joked:
"Snacks, it's not good for cows to eat too much sweet things."
"Wagyu beef becomes fat because of eating too many sweets, and it becomes a very delicious ingredient."
"When you get home, let Dr. Zhao give you a massage, and try to take advantage of the east wind of mulberries to grow muscle texture as beautiful as marble."
"When the time comes, I can eat three fat heifers like you in one bite."
Barrage:
【???】
[Listen, is this human speech?]
[If you eat the snack food, who will pull the stones for you to build a house in the future?]
[But... to be honest, the snack foodie has really gotten fatter and fatter these days after being admitted to the camp...]
[Of course, the combination of alfalfa and Dr. Zhao will not make the cow fat! 】
During this trip to pick mulberries, the two of them stayed in the mulberry forest for a long time.
By the time we got down the mountain at 4:30, not only were the containers filled with mulberries, but the stomachs of the two of them and the snack food were also filled with mulberries.
This time, the full snack man followed the two of them down the mountain, carrying a load of mulberries. The cow's eyes finally no longer felt aggrieved, but filled with satisfaction.
The two of them had previously explored this mountain forest along four streams, and there were still many places they had never visited before. When they went down the mountain, they tried to find gentle and unfamiliar places in an attempt to find more resources.
…
At the same time, Li Jixian was in the live broadcast room.
Waves of cheers erupted from the edge of a creek.
Li Jixian held the engineering shovel high with both hands, his face full of excitement.
Under his feet, there was an aqueduct, and the connection with the creek had just been dug. The stream flowed into the aqueduct along the gap in the aqueduct.
The originally clear stream water was quickly contaminated by mud after entering the diversion canal, turning into a stream of dark brown dirty water, which continued to flow forward along the shallow canal dug by Li Jixian.
The end point of the canal ahead is the cave that Li Jixian used as his camp!
Bangziguo’s barrage was also very exciting, saying repeatedly:
【Very good!】
[Although I don’t know yet what the specific scoring rules of the program team’s judges are.]
[But looking at Su Bai’s rapid rise in rankings in the past few days, the extra points brought by the water diversion facilities must be a lot!]
[Now, Li Jixian should be able to win the first place again!]
[Grandma, the Shenzhou Kingdom’s barrage yesterday was too arrogant. When Li Jixian overpowers Su Bai again today, we must ridicule him back!]
[I can’t swallow this breath either! I must ridicule you back!]
This diversion canal is very long. Thanks to the loose soil along the way, Li Jixian actually dug the diversion canal very deep, a full thirty centimeters.
After the stream water enters the aqueduct, it continues to seep down, and the water that finally reaches the side of the cave may be less than one-tenth of the total amount.
But Li Jixian and Song Mingyue finally have a nearby water source, and they no longer need to waste hours every day traveling between the water source and the camp!
"That's great, wife!" Li Jixian hugged Song Mingyue beside him, his face full of excitement.
Song Mingyue seemed a little tired, nodded sleepily, and whispered:
"Let's go back."
"I'm a little tired..."
Li Jixian didn't take Song Mingyue's difficulties too seriously. He just thought it was due to lack of rest in the past few days, so he pulled Song Mingyue back to the cave.
But who knew that the two of them had just walked a few hundred meters when Song Mingyue's feet suddenly softened and she fell down!
Li Jixian, who had been holding Song Mingyue's hand, reacted immediately, hugged Song Mingyue, and said in surprise:
"You...what's wrong with you?"
"Is it okay..."
"Are you sick?"
With that said, Li Jixian quickly put the back of his hand on Song Mingyue's forehead.
It felt cold to the touch, and Li Jixian breathed a sigh of relief.
It's fine if you don't have a fever.
Song Mingyue frowned slightly, tried her best to help Li Jixian stand up, and whispered:
"I don't know...it should be...sick, right?"
"Can you carry me on your back? I feel so tired..."
