SFS Chapter 174 Salt Lake
Chapter 174 Salt Lake
"Ah! Help!" Tingyu was so scared that he quickly stepped back, fearing that the dark beast would bite him.
After waiting for a long time without any response, she heard Lin Sangyi laughing loudly behind her. Tingyu stamped her feet angrily, "I was scared to death! I thought he was going to break free and bite me!"
"It's okay, this pill is very strong." Lin Sangyi comforted Tingyu. She clicked on the system and began unified control.
Have them line up in three rows and follow them forward.
"This is so spectacular. I never thought that I could lead the dark beast through the forest." Yuanshu followed them and kept talking.
This time it was Tingyu who was impatient. She didn't think Yuanshu was a chatterbox before, but now he has to drag her to chat every day.
Even when she was sleeping.
"Do you want to come with us?" Lin Sangyi and Yunnuo were standing nearby chatting, while Mo Lin hid behind a tree and peeked.
He wanted to see what this cherry tree was up to. It was actually talking to his sister secretly.
Yun Nuo nodded somewhat embarrassedly. He really wanted to leave with them. He didn't want to stay in Chidori Castle.
"Most of the beastmen in Chidori Castle are dark beasts. Now that you have taken them away, it has become an empty city."
Lin Sangyi thought he was blaming them. She was a little conflicted. "Let me release them to you."
Yun Nuo waved his hands quickly, meaning that he wanted to leave with them, not those soulless dark beasts.
"I want to go with you." Yun Nuo mustered up the courage to say this and looked at Lin Sangyi expectantly.
He was terrified of being rejected.
"Sure, our tribe is expanding recently, and we have many beautiful tree houses and caves." Lin Sangyi agreed directly.
Lele will be very happy to see the increase of orcs in the tribe. "By the way, you can bring thicker animal skins. Zhu Li said it will be very cold when we go back."
"I've packed everything and can leave right away."
Yuanshu was stunned watching from the side. Yunnuo still said that it had nothing to do with Lin Sangyi, but even he could see that Yunnuo was interested in Lin Sangyi.
When they finished talking, Morin came up and said, "Sister, I want the little mermaid."
"And my little dragon." Zhu Li was also looking at Lin Sangyi carefully.
Lin Sangyi touched her belly and pushed them both away. "The little fox in your belly hasn't been born yet, and you're already thinking about having a little mermaid and a little dragon. Let's talk about it next spring."
"What! There's a little fox!" Qi Yu rushed over at the speed of a 100-meter sprint.
Just before he hit Lin Sangyi, he stood still.
Lin Sangyi was startled by him, "Why are you so reckless? Can't you feel it?"
Qi Yu touched Lin Sangyi's belly expectantly, with stars in his eyes, "I can feel it a little bit, I was careless."
Feeling the baby's strong fetal movement, Qi Yu was as excited as a child, "I feel like he is saying hello to me!"
"I can feel it, too."
While they were still talking, Zhu Li had already arranged everything. "We can set off now. It will take about a month to get to the tribe from here."
They walked slowly this time, and Lin Sangyi felt much more comfortable and was able to enjoy the scenery along the way.
"It's better here. The air is much fresher." Lin Sangyi was lying on Qi Yu's back, eating a fruit in her hand.
"There is a lake in front, it's very beautiful, do you want to go and see it?" Qi Yu had been here when he was wandering outside. There were crystals scattered around the lake, which was very beautiful.
Lin Sangyi became interested. "Of course, is it just in front?"
"We're here. Just cross this path." Qi Yu led the team in front, crossing the obstructing trees and reaching the beautiful lake.
The lake was indeed beautiful, with colorful stones scattered around. Lin Sangyi got off Qi Yu's back and picked up a stone.
"The color looks like diamond, and we just happen to be short of glass at home, so let's take some back."
Lin Sangyi controlled the dark beast to pick up stones. She walked lively. Her belly was already visibly pregnant, so she needed to walk more.
"It tastes so bad." Yuanshu felt thirsty, so he scooped up some water from the lake and drank it. It tasted exactly like the white crystal they used for barbecue.
Lin Sangyi touched the water of the lake with his fingers and put it into his mouth, "This is a salt lake!"
She opened the system and found that she had won a book on salt research in the lottery yesterday, which came in handy.
She opened the book's catalog and learned how to refine it.
The lake water was visibly turbid, so Lin Sangyi used gold coins to exchange for two layers of filters, a layer of gauze, and a layer of kitchen paper to filter the lake water for the first time.
She wanted to test it out first to avoid wasting materials.
"Shi Sheng, help me light the fire!" She put the filtered water from the kettle into the pot.
After replacing the sediment on the paper towel several times, I finally got a pot of slightly clearer lake water and turned on high heat.
What follows is a long wait, and turn off the heat when about 1/10 of the soup is left.
Lin Sangyi saw that a large amount of salt and minerals had already condensed on the edge of the pot, so she filtered it again using the same filtering method as the first time.
Get a pot of highly concentrated salt water and continue to boil over high heat.
"When will it be better?" Tingyu took out a small notebook and started taking notes. She also wanted to learn so that she could help when the time comes.
"When it becomes like tofu, turn off the heat and serve it immediately. Remember this." Lin Sangyi taught them while flipping through the book.
After turning off the heat, wrap it tightly with gauze and squeeze out excess water, then put it back into the pot and stir-fry over low heat.
After the water was completely dried up and coarse salt like lime was obtained, Lin Sangyi shook it and found that it still contained a lot of impurities.
She continued to add a small amount of warm water to the coarse salt and stirred it thoroughly to allow the salt to completely dissolve in the water.
Continue to cook over high heat until crystals appear, then turn to medium heat and simmer, stirring constantly until all the water is dried up.
"Are you ready?" Tingyu wiped the sweat from her forehead. They were too close to the fire and were sweating all over.
Lin Sangyi continued to flip through the pages, "This is not enough, we need to expose it to the sun, Shi Sheng, come here quickly!"
When it comes to the weather, asking Shi Sheng is the most useful.
“Will it rain in the next few days?”
Shi Sheng answered her accurately, "It won't rain, but it will be very hot."
Lin Sangyi used gold coins to exchange for a lot of materials, and controlled the dark beasts to make them, while she supervised them beside them.
The dark beast couldn't control the heat well, so she needed to watch over it, so she asked Qi Yu to watch from the side.
They took turns on duty, and Lin Sangyi took them out to build a house. They would need to live here recently and build a stable shelter.
"Let's use wood. Wood is quite sturdy." There were a lot of broken pieces of wood around, and you could find a lot of them just by looking around.
With previous experience in building a house, Lin Sangyi quickly controlled the dark beast to build the room.
