Before, they either grilled their food, or boiled it on stone slabs. If they were more luxurious, they boiled it in clam shells. However, both the stone slabs and the clam shells heated up very slowly, so they had to wait patiently to boil or cook food. Moreover, the volume of the clam shells was very small, so they could only boil a little.
However, with Shima Rin's pot, they can not only save cooking time, but also save firewood. More importantly, they can boil a lot of water at one time, and no longer have to boil water from dozens of clam shells to fill a coconut shell.
Kagamihara Nadeshiko thought that if they could get some coconut oil, maybe they could use the pan to cook.
Although she could still eat roasted, blanched and boiled food, she wanted to try stir-fried food for a change.
With a big pot and a small pot, can you try steaming?
Thinking of this, Kakumihara Nadeshiko's eyes brightened.
However, what she wanted to eat more was hot pot, but unfortunately there was no spices, so she couldn't make it even if she wanted to.
Arriving under the tree where the camping equipment was located, the three of them rested in the shade for a while, drank some water, and ate some barbecue they had brought overnight.
"There are only trees here, the terrain is low, there are no sea cliffs, and it seems that we can't find any sea caves. We can only build shelters."
While taking a break, Dongyun looked at his surroundings.
The waves in the bay seemed to be smaller than those on the beach they were on, but there were no sea cliffs and the terrain was low, so they could only build shelters. Then they improved the shelters so that they could withstand future storms and typhoons.
"Eh?"
When Nadeshiko Kamihara heard that she could only build a shelter, the light in her eyes disappeared.
Is it time to work again? Start all over again, from scratch, cutting trees, weaving palm leaves, making frames, and building huts.
Well, it’s so hard.
"Don't worry, Nadeshiko. We have plenty of food. If we move here, we'll have plenty of water next to the river. And with Shima Rin's hatchet, the four of us can quickly rebuild a temporary shelter."
Dongyun smiled and comforted.
With enough food, plenty of water, a sharp hatchet, and the manpower of four people, they can quickly build a shelter like a shack.
The only concern is that their makeshift shelters are very fragile. They can provide shelter from wind and rain, but it is difficult to block strong winds and heavy rain.
So after the temporary shelter shacks are built, they must quickly start building mud houses to become advanced shelters that can block strong winds and heavy rains, and even block ferocious wild beasts.
His idea of building a mud house was not a fantasy.
Shima Rin had a hatchet, so they were able to cut down bigger trees to make beams for the house. He also exchanged the blueprints for a kiln and adobe bricks and learned how to make them.
Being near the river, they could easily get clay. As long as they could make sure that the bay was generally safe, they could move here and build houses in the jungle near the beach to protect against wind, rain and wild animals.
Chapter 62 Strange Stone
Bay, woods.
The gurgling stream was reflected in the eyes of Shinonome and Kakumihara Nadeshiko.
This is the river that Shima Rin was talking about, a small river, or a stream.
"The water is clearer than a pond!"
Kakumihara Nadeshiko said happily when she saw the water in the river.
"After all, it is flowing water, so it is normal that it is clearer than stagnant water. However, if we want to fetch water, we cannot go downstream. It is best to go upstream to avoid corpses in the upstream water from contaminating the downstream water."
Shinonome teaches Kakamihara Nadeshiko, and also teaches Shima Rin who may not know this knowledge.
"Oh, then wouldn't it be safest for us to fetch water from the upper reaches? We don't have to worry about water contamination."
Kamihara Nadeshiko raised her right hand and asked curiously.
"Yes, that's right, but the upper reaches of the river should be in the mountains. Not only is it too far, but it's also deep in the jungle. There are leopards, huge monitor lizards and pythons here, and maybe even bears and wild boars. If you go to the mountains, you might encounter them, which is too dangerous."
Dongyun is having reasonable doubts.
If it was just a jungle, it would definitely not be able to support large predators like bears. However, the appearance of deer made him suspect that there were other biomes outside the jungle, such as mountains, plains, and the end of the world. (Bushi)
There are definitely mountains. They go down the mountain from the sea cliff to the bay, and go up the mountain along the river.
It’s hard to say about the plains, but as for the End of the World, it’s not impossible. Maybe they can go home after defeating the Ender Dragon.
"Let's walk up the river. When we come back, we won't walk along the river. We'll walk into the jungle and find another way back. Let's see if there are any animal footprints and look for edible plants and fruits. It seems that there are a lot of mangoes in the jungle."
Dongyun remembered that the monkeys near the pond threw mangoes to him when they threw him, and Shima Rin even found a mango tree. There must be a lot of mango trees in this jungle. Whether the mango is ripe or not, it is rich in vitamin C. Even if you think it is sour and not delicious, you can make mango tea.
Besides, the mangoes can be left alone after being picked, and they may become ripe in a few days.
"I'd rather eat watermelon."
Kagamihara Nadeshiko wiped the sweat from her face and said with a smile.
"Stop dreaming and look for a mango tree. With a mango tree, we don't have to worry about lack of vitamin C. People can't eat meat every day. They also need to eat vegetables and fruits to supplement vitamin C. Otherwise, they will get scurvy and have problems with their teeth. You don't want to have cavities and have to have your teeth pulled out, do you?"
Shinonome shattered Kakamihara Nadeshiko's fantasy.
Where did the watermelons come from? They really thought they were MCs, and they could see wild watermelons. The watermelons that modern people eat are all cultivated. Real wild watermelons are not delicious. Instead of expecting watermelons, it is better to expect fruits such as pineapples and jackfruits.
Going up the river, Dongyun and his friends encountered some animals, all small animals, either small snakes or small spiders, or insects, some harmful and some not.
Suddenly, Dongyun saw a bug he recognized on the leaves around him. He pointed at the bug on the leaf and said to Shima Rin: "Shima, the bug that stung you is this, a cyprinid."
When Shima Rin, who was walking behind, saw Yanglazi, she instantly took several steps back with an expression of fear and disgust on her face.
When she saw the bug, her healed hand felt a phantom pain.
"Can you please kill it?"
Shima Rin said with disgust.
She wished that this bug would disappear from the world. Even mosquitoes had never disgusted her so much.
If you haven't been stung by this bug, you may not understand it, but once you are stung and cry out in pain, you will understand her. Being stung by this bug is not only very painful, but it can also hurt for a long time, and it takes a while to recover.
"can."
Dongyun found Shima Rin annoying, so he pierced the foreign girl with his spear without saying a word.
This was just a small episode, and they continued upstream, letting the barrage help calculate the time. They stopped after walking for nearly an hour.
"That's about it, this distance. We don't need to go so far up here to get water, we can go a little bit downstream. Let's go back, take another route, and find the animal path to go back."
Dongyun stopped and gave up swimming upstream.
They had come this far enough, there was no point in going any further, nothing special had happened since they moved to the bay, it was unlikely that they would have come to such a deep place.
As long as we can make sure that there are no dangers and wild animals in the bay and the jungle near the bay, we can build a shelter in the forest to protect against walking fish that may land on the beach and predators such as leopards, pythons, monitor lizards, etc. in the deep jungle.
"Can you take a break? I can't walk anymore."
Shima Rin kept gasping for breath. Her physical strength was still good, but her body had not fully recovered. In addition, the food she ate had little salt, so her physical strength had deteriorated a lot.
The same is true for Shinonome and Kagamihara Nadeshiko, but their lives are relatively comfortable, and their physical strength has not declined as quickly as that of Shima Rin, who had been suffering before them.
"Then take a break. I'll look for some rocks in the river to see if there's any suitable for making a spear."
Dongyun didn't force it.
Although they rested not long ago, some people need to rest when they are tired.
They happened to be by the river, so he could pick up some stones. Shima Rin's hatchet was only suitable for chopping wood, so if he wanted to hunt animals, it would be more appropriate to use a spear. Even if the hatchet could cut a poisonous snake in half, it would be easy to expose the hand to the snake's fangs when chopping the snake, which was far less safe than using a spear.
One inch long, one inch strong.
"I'll help too."
Kagamihara Nadeshiko came to the river in high spirits and helped Shinonome pick up stones.
"Be careful, there might be crocodiles in the river."
Dongyun talked nonsense seriously.
"I'm more inclined to believe there's a monster in the river."
Kagamihara Nadeshiko smiled when she saw the river with its bottom barely visible.
There is a greater chance of a monster emerging from the mud at the bottom of the river than of a crocodile appearing.
and……
“Is alligator delicious?”
Kakumihara Nadeshiko asked curiously.
"I haven't tried it." Dongyun was silent for a while, then said, "The comments said it tasted like chicken and was crunchy."
"Crocodile and lizard are both reptiles. They may taste the same as the monitor lizards we eat."
Shima Rin spoke.
"Wow, there are fish."
Kagamihara Nadeshiko saw fish swimming in the river.
The fish is neither too big nor too small, making it perfect for being skewered on tree branches and grilled.
"Ah."
Dongyun agreed calmly, without any intention of slacking off.
"what is this?"
A stone in the river that seemed to be reflective caught the attention of Kakumihara Nadeshiko.
She picked it up, and she didn't know if it was her illusion, but she felt that the weight of the stone was inconsistent with its size.
"Xiaoyun, this stone is so heavy."
Kagamihara Nadeshiko said as she handed the stone to Shinonome.
The latter took it doubtfully, but he didn't expect the weight of the stone to make his hand sink suddenly.
"Eh?"
Dongyun picked up the stone and looked at it carefully.
Although I have never seen iron ore, could this stone be iron ore?
Chapter 63 I am a historian, this is history
“Isn’t this iron ore?”
Shinonome looked at the heavy gray-black stone in his hand and seemed to be asking about Nadeshiko and Shima Rin, but he was actually asking about the barrage.
[No way]
Looks like iron ore
[It’s an iron ore mine. I’m a blasting engineer. I’ve blasted mines and seen iron ore mines.]
[Is it true or not that iron ore can no longer be used to smelt iron?]
[Is this the rhythm of entering the Iron Age? 】
[There are iron ore mines downstream, will there be mines upstream?]
[Iron ore needs to be smelted, but it cannot be achieved by burning]
“Is it really iron ore?”
Dongyun saw someone in the barrage swearing that this was an iron mine, and was afraid that it would be a false alarm, so he was not very happy.
There are many powerful people who follow the anime and watch the live broadcast, but there are also some audiences who look like big names but are actually fake big names. Therefore, he needs to distinguish the authenticity of the barrage. Moreover, the audience sees his two-dimensional style, and this world is different from the earth, so it is normal that they may accidentally mistake the stone in his hand.
But let's take this stone back anyway. I don't know if it can be burned in a kiln. If not, it's okay. Just because it can't be burned now doesn't mean it can't be burned in the future.
“Is it iron ore?”
Kagamihara Nadeshiko knew that what Shinonome had in his hands might be iron ore, and she immediately realized the value of this stone.
Iron, can they use iron tools?
Shinonome saw the surprised expression on Kagamihara Nadeshiko's face and knew what she was thinking. He quickly poured cold water on her and said, "The temperature required for iron smelting is very high. I heard from the audience that not only a furnace is needed, but also a bellows. I have no idea what a bellows is, and I don't know if anyone in the comments knows how to do it."
