Lux's Magic Penetration Rod

Chapter 289 【0285】 Man and Nature

Lux wanted to say, "Being a shoveler is nothing more than training your will," but in the end, in front of Kalya, she could only grin, hold the shovel honestly, and follow Ino and Scarash.

It is much more difficult to make ice in the desert than at sea. In order to feed this behemoth with ice cubes, Ino consumed a lot of magic power. A rough estimate, based on the upper limit of her magic power, I am afraid that she can only feed it in one go. He looked like he was full of five or six Scarash.

Chewing ice cubes, Scarash moved up and down again.

Lux, who was holding a shovel and a folding bucket, was running behind it, following its swishing tail. By the time the entire feeding and cleaning process was over, Lux felt like she was almost exhausted.

Following Kalya's instructions, she dug a shallow sand pit downwind of where she was about to camp, and poured all the dark, hard lumps into it.

Then, she took out a stick with grease on the top that was specially used to start fires from her luggage, ignited it with a flint, and placed it among the pile of black lumps.

Soon, red flames rose with billowing black smoke, and a unique smell of fishy smell, fermentation and corruption made Lux almost die.

"Now, cover that iron plate, yes, the one with the ventilation channel!" Kalya continued to direct, "Use it to cover the fire pit! Cover it with a layer of sand!"

Although she was a bit in a hurry, Lux completed the task quickly with the help of Ino - after cutting off the air, the burning of Scarash's feces was no longer violent, and its smell also miraculously changed from a foul smell to It became an incredible fragrance.

At this moment, Lux could hardly believe her nose.

She wanted to ask in detail, but she couldn't accept it. Instead, Ino, who was beside her, took a few deep breaths.

"Well, Scarash is so weird! It tastes completely different from cow dung!"

"Of course it's different!" Kalya replied with a smile, "The cows of Demacia eat grass, but Sklash eats more than just grass - their digestive ability is extremely strong, and they can eat not only grass, but also grass. They eat wood fibers, even plants with inorganic salt crystals in their bodies.”

"What does this have to do with the smell of its burning feces?" Lux blinked and asked with some confusion, "Obviously it smelled so bad when it was first lit..."

"Skalash has a very strong digestive capacity and can ruminate, so even if it is wood fiber with no nutrients, they can extract the pitiful energy from it." Speaking of Skalash, Kalja said clearly, "And because of these Food is difficult to digest, so Scarlash has a very long intestine. The food it eats must be digested normally and stay in the stomach for about half a month - it eats and drinks from the top and bottom. It comes out because it needs help with swallowing during intestinal peristalsis."

Hearing what Kalya said, Lux and Ino were shocked.

"Because the digestion time is too long, they will stick the feces with their own intestinal secretions, just like glue that sticks broken wood into a wooden board." Kalya continued, "And its intestinal secretions , that’s what you smell.”

"Does it smell good or smell bad?" Lux was obviously still a little confused, "Well, wait, why do I suddenly feel that its smell is familiar?"

"If it's too strong, it smells bad. If it's lighter, it's fragrant." Kalya's tone once again had a hint of teasing, "Demacia's popular perfume [Desolation] has a base note of agarwood, and agarwood One of the raw materials is the one you just packed up - after breaking it up and sealing it in amber, it is the agarwood stone."

At this moment, Lux's brain finally shut down completely.

In Demacia, she wore the perfume of Desolation for a long time.

"Okay, don't act like this." Seeing Lux's overstimulated look, Kalya finally stopped teasing her, "Skalash can't do anything like this - Shurima The desert is vast and the oases are limited. The unique strong smell of excrement, coupled with the characteristics of going up and down when eating and drinking, can ensure that Skalash will always leave his own smell when passing through the oasis, which is very important to Skalash. It’s quite important.”

"And it can be used as a mark." Lux replied subconsciously, "It can also be used to call out companions."

"That's right." Kalya's tone finally lost the meaning of joking, "Skarash can't speak. In this way, they can tell their companions within a dozen or even dozens of miles of where there is something. Oasis Signal.”

"But I remember you told me that don't most desert animals rely on their memory to find oases?" Lux thought about the story Kalya once told her, "Skarash's memory should be pretty good, right?"

"Skarash is different from those small and medium-sized guys that only move in a small area, and different from those birds that fly in the sky purely based on their memory. They are huge, and walking in the desert consumes a lot of money, and forgive me Many of the oases in Rima are seasonal." Kalya continued to explain, "If you follow a certain fixed route, even Skalas is likely to die of thirst because several oases in a row are in dry season. ——So they chose to use smell as a communication to build a dynamic information system between the oases in the Shurima Desert, sharing the blessings."

"Then if we burn Scarash's feces here, wouldn't it send the wrong signal?" Lux nodded, and then suddenly realized the problem, "If a wild Scarash smells it-"

"That's why you cover the fire with an iron plate and cover it with sand!" Kalya laughed happily, "This is not just to make the excrement burn better and keep the flames going. The longer it takes, and more importantly, this slow smoldering smell will completely dissipate after more than two or three miles, and the wild Scarash will not foolishly travel dozens of miles to exhaust itself!"

At this moment, Lux and Ino finally realized.

From Skalash's eating habits to excretion habits, from human taste sensations and the protection of wild Skalash, the relationship between people and Skalash in the desert seems to form a complete closed loop, harmonious and unified. way without interfering with each other.

"This is one of the most barren places in Runeterra." When Lux and Ino were stunned, Kalya continued to say with a smile, "If you want to survive here, every competitor is a life-and-death enemy. A collaborator must be sincere and sincere, believe me, when you complete this journey, you will have a completely new understanding of life."

Lux and Ino stood side by side, nodding frequently.

"Okay, Lux, go take the pot out of the luggage pile and put it on the hot sand."

"Ino makes ice - just two-thirds of the pot is enough!"

"Tonight, I will teach you a traditional Shurima dish, Dashai Soup!"

Kalja's Little Class·The Magical Uses of Scarash's Feces:

It's not that the Shurimans never directly burn Skala'ash dung - when someone wants to capture and tame wild Skala'ash, they will set the dung on fire upwind near the oasis, and then wait and wait for it to come. Scarash drank water and captured him in one fell swoop.

But to be honest, compared to wild Scarash, domestic Scarash actually leads a better life...

PS. Although we agreed that grabbing the sofa today wouldn’t count, unless someone said it was June 1st, I finished posting the first two chapters after twelve o’clock.

Okay, then add it, I don’t believe anyone can grab the sofa in this chapter!
