Surviving Endless Disasters

Holding this precious drifting bottle in his hand, Wen Zheng couldn't suppress the excitement in his heart. He raised the bamboo pole in his hand and waved it twice. He even took off his mask and shouted twice at the sea. The depression accumulated in so many days on the desert island Clear them all.

Wen Zheng put the precious rice he found in a bamboo basket to protect it, and then he searched even more carefully, making sure not to miss anything that could be used.

Although he didn't find anything precious anymore, Wen Zheng was already very satisfied.

The waves that brought this marine garbage ashore also brought out some marine life, which stayed in the smelly garbage dump. Those fish and shrimps quickly lost their vitality.

Wen Zheng saw a piece of red coral. The color was particularly beautiful. Even though it was not big in size, it would be great to take it back and make it an ornament to decorate the cave.

Today's harvest was beyond Wen Zheng's expectation. He even gave up his dissatisfaction with the system profiteers and moved some of Wang Jing's cleaning things back to the cave. It was already noon.

Wen Zheng was going to take a break and wait until lunch before conducting a blanket search, not letting go of any possibility.

Walking to Wang Jing's coast, he used seawater for simple cleaning. After Wen Zheng returned to the cave, he held the drift bottle and smiled silly. It was indeed a gift prepared for Robinson. The rice and barley inside were full and stuffed. More than half of the drift bottle was filled. He planted these seeds and waited for a good harvest. After he finished eating, the task time was over.

It takes about three months for rice to mature from sowing, while barley takes longer to grow and takes about six months to mature. Moreover, the temperature here is suitable all year round, so it can be sown at any time.

But before sowing these seeds, there is a serious question: where to plant them.

Around the cave, only the grass outside the cave entrance can grow things, but the grass is connected to the beach, so it doesn't take much to know that this land is saline land.

However, barley is a typical salt-alkali and drought-tolerant crop, and rice also has a certain degree of salt-alkali tolerance, and these rice may be sea rice, so there is no problem.

An idea came into Wen Zheng's mind, maybe he should find a new place to live.

In the past few days, living in a cave has been great, but it is undeniable that it is too far away from the mountains and forests, and a lot of time has to be spent on the road every time.

But finding a new place to live is not easy. Even if you find a suitable place, moving the things in the cave is a big problem.

After thinking about it for a while, Wen Zheng dismissed the idea of ​​moving. He only lived here for a year and had no time to move again, so he planted these seeds on the grass outside.

When sowing for the first time, sow one-third of the seeds first, and then sow the remaining seeds after they are sure to grow and mature after germination. If the seeds are really unable to survive, then consider moving.

Tuantuan wandered around for several times, but did not attract the attention of Wen Zheng who was thinking. His curious little eyes kept looking at the glass bottle in Wen Zheng's hand. This was a new food for him. Bird's head came up to see it. Watch the fun.

Wen Zheng's hands felt the plush touch and he hugged Tuantuan: "Tuan Tuan, you can't break this lucky bottle. It contains particularly precious crop seeds.

"Come on, let me tell you. After the rice is mature, you can hull it and then grind it to remove the bran layer to get rice. Rice is one of the most commonly eaten staple foods. I haven't tasted the taste of rice for a long time. If only I could have it now." How nice would it be to have a bowl of white rice or porridge.

By the way, rice can also be used to make wine and sugar.

In addition to rice, the staple food we usually eat is flour. Flour is derived from wheat, but what we have are barley seeds. Barley has many uses, such as making beer, making bread, and making barley tea.

I can't think about it anymore, I feel hungry.

"Wen Zheng couldn't continue talking. The things in the bottle are used to make seeds and cannot be eaten now.

The tuantuan next to him made a melodious cry. When Wen Zheng saw this, he didn't want to stand up and prepare lunch.

There were a lot of ingredients in the cave, and Wen Zheng wanted to make something simple. He put wild taro king in a bamboo tube, added some fresh water, spread a few pieces of bacon king, and grilled it on the fire. This method originated from Inspired by Bamboo Rice.

Wen Zheng just thought of bamboo rice from rice, but he couldn't bear to eat the rice prepared as seeds, so he just made some for psychological comfort. Unexpectedly, it tasted good.

Both the wild taro king and the bacon king have absorbed enough water, and the two are also blended together. The wild taro is soft, waxy, and the bacon is salty, and the flavors complement each other. When paired with fresh water with vermicelli juice as an after-dinner drink, this meal is satisfying. .

Wen Zheng spent the whole afternoon cleaning the things he found in the trash and rummaging through them many times. When it got dark, a prompt message suddenly popped up on the system interface.

[There is still one hour until the remaining marine garbage is collected, host, please hurry up.

】Is there any time limit? Wen Zheng opened the system store and found that there was an additional explanation on the product Yimi Marine Garbage.

In order to prevent marine debris from polluting the environment, remaining marine debris will be recycled two hours after landing.

In fact, the system's approach is quite good. Most of these garbage are difficult to degrade, and it is difficult to deal with them if they stay on the beach. Now we can safely hand them over to the system.

Wen Zheng had rummaged through it many times, and in the last hour, Wen Zheng rummaged through it again.

When the time came, the waves suddenly became fierce, and all the garbage on the shore was swept into the sea water, and was sucked in by the whirlpool that appeared on the sea surface. Soon the sea surface returned to calm, and the entire beach was so pure that it was like an illusion.

Chapter 43 Accompanied by the morning sunshine and the chirping of seabirds, Wen Zheng woke up from the bamboo mat with thick grass underneath, lifted the wild boar skin covering his body, put on a grass skirt and stood up.

Under Wen Zheng's repeated obstructions, Tuan Tuan, who was particularly fond of the black box, failed to fight for the right to sleep on the box.

The coconut shell had long been unable to accommodate Tuan Tuan's body, and now he slept in a new bird's nest made by Wen Zheng with wood and weeds.

Every day after waking up, Tuan Tuan would run to the black box and stay for a few minutes. I don't know what attracted him to the black box, and then after Wen Zheng lifted the bamboo curtain, he rushed out suddenly, spread his wings and flew freely in the sky.

After the bamboo curtain was rolled up, the dark cave was illuminated by sunlight. At the entrance of the cave was an earthen stove made of stones and fine mud.

Opposite the earthen stove was a shelf made of bamboo and a wooden cabinet made of wood, and in between them were a bamboo table and bamboo stool made of bamboo.

Delicious smoked meat and fish are hung on the wall, and bright red corals, small animals woven from banana leaves, and small boxes made of bamboo are placed on the shelves. There are bamboo tubes filled with wild flowers on the table.

Every day when I wake up and look at these beautiful decorations, my mood will definitely not be too bad.

Wen Zheng has been going to bed and getting up early these two days, and he is full of energy.

After getting up, he first looked at the soil soaked in water and a few rice grains and barley. One or two of these seeds used for experiments have slightly white tips, and I don’t know what the germination rate is.

Today his plan is to go to the mountains and forests to find materials for making farm tools.

Planting crops is certainly not as simple as sprinkling seeds on the ground. If you want to have more harvests, you have to reclaim these wastelands into farmland.

The large area of ​​land in front of this mountain rock is full of gravel and weeds, and no trees grow. Wen Zheng has always been curious about the reason why there are no trees here. Now he has discovered the benefits of not growing trees. At least when reclaiming wasteland, you don’t need to cut trees hard.

To reclaim a piece of wasteland, you must first remove the plants growing on this wasteland.

These cut plants can also be dried and burned into ash. Ash is an alkaline fertilizer and is not suitable for spreading on saline-alkali land, but Wen Zheng has already thought of the use of this ash.

After removing these plants, they can also burn grass seeds and insect eggs when they are burned, and then start turning the soil.

Wen Zheng is going to make two kinds of agricultural tools for reclaiming farmland, namely hoes and wooden plows. There are no iron tools on the deserted island, so Wen Zheng can only use wood.
