Chapter 1501
A Promise of a Thousand Gold Swaying slowly along the coast, Le Yun walked about 10,000 miles to the west and arrived at the pure fresh water area along the coast. She chose a corner of the coast not far from a large river that entered the sea as a stopover.
The place she chose is at a high altitude and will not be submerged even if the water level rises during the flood season. It is a plain on the coast about several hundred miles wide, with mountains about eight thousand feet high in the distance behind it, and on the sea side there are Reefs and trees block the sea breeze.
The location Le Yun chose as her foothold was less than fifteen miles away from the sea. She first cleared away the weeds and trees, put her own man-made cave and a cedar bark shed to protect her from the rain, and then set up a psychedelic array to protect her. Wooden houses and wooden sheds do not allow wild beasts or monsters to enter your private territory and cause damage.
After tidying up the temporary residence, we took the stone kiln that the real people built for making pine smoke, disassembled its parts, and painted the inside of the stone kiln with mud and soil. Apply one layer of mud and let it dry before brushing, three layers in a row. The protective layer.
Stones will explode or crack after being heated by fire for a long time. The kiln for burning pine trees to make smoke is semi-sealed, and the temperature inside the kiln is high. The service life of stone kilns is not long. Paint several layers of special soil for the stone kiln to prevent direct flames. Smoking the stone can improve the life of the kiln.
It took two days to paint the inside of the stone kiln with a protective layer. Le Yun first hung the fish to be smoked in the wooden shed, then assembled the stone kilns, placing kilns at regular intervals, and then officially lit the fire to burn the pine trees to make smoke. .
When the fire in the kiln is burning brightly, put a pot on the top of the stone kiln near the kiln door, add water, put in Lingzhi and cook the soup for pickling fish or animal meat, then pour out two large pots and cook the soup to soak all kinds of bamboo. Make wooden tea cans, boxes for cosmetics, and bamboo tubes for wine.
Wooden or bamboo tea cans or boxes, etc. are boiled in a pot for one to three days at a time, then dried until semi-dry and then boiled again, boiled for several days and then dried, and after seven boils and seven dryings, wooden or bamboo supplies are not only Hard, moisture-proof, corrosion-proof and insect-proof.
Without a helper, Le Yun needs to go back and forth to fetch water from the sea. When the water in the snail used for artificial rainfall is used up, she will fetch water again. The schedule is basically clear. She collects water once in the morning and evening every day, and takes care of it by herself during the day. Fire, catch the little fox and little Huihui out at night, and let them help guard the kiln and add firewood.
The medicinal soup is boiled in one pot every seven or eight days, and the smoked fish is removed from the shelves after about 12 or 20 days and another batch is smoked.
A month and a half later, the fire was turned off, the kiln door was closed to cool down, and it took about seven days before the kiln door was opened again. The ash produced by burning pine trees was first emptied out, and then the carbon black was collected in the cellar.
Pine smoke adheres to the inner wall of the stone kiln, which is carbon black. The further away from the kiln door where the fire is fired, the finer the carbon black. It is also the raw material for making fine ink. The closer to the kiln door, the coarser the smoke particles.
Each time, the carbon black from a stone kiln was scraped, and the fire was lit again to burn pine trees to make smoke, and then went to another kiln to collect the carbon black. In this circle, the next time the fire was turned off, it happened to start from the first kiln. Reincarnation.
The reincarnation repeated several times, and in the autumn, Le Xiaotong brewed another batch of fermented wine. In addition to collecting seawater and feeding birthmarks on his arms and eating stones, he also often collected wild fruits and spiritual plants nearby, leaving Xiao Huihui to help light the fire in the wooden shed. .
Generally speaking, everything is fine, except for the birthmark on my arm and the countless pounds of stones eaten, and the star core space remains unchanged.
Time passed and passed, and when the season seemed to be at the end of autumn, one morning, the music of flying an aircraft on the sea using conches to absorb water suddenly straightened the nerves and put people on high alert - she felt A powerful creature is approaching the coast.
After about ten breaths of time, the sea surface less than a kilometer away in front of them fluctuated, and three voluptuous and beautiful men flew out. The figure of the beautiful man who broke out of the water moved lightly, with lotus growing every step of the way.
Seeing the three celestial monsters in human form, Le Yun wanted to facepalm. Did the Shark King, Purple Whale King, and Sperm Whale King really come to the Southwest District?
She also conveniently put away the thunder talisman she was holding in her hand, and in just a moment, three handsome and charming men flew in front of the human girl.
"Human friend, we meet again."
"Friend, it's nice to see you again."
"Friend, you actually reached the southwest one step faster than us."
The three-day demon looked at the delicate face and bright smile of the human girl, and said hello with a slight smile. After they parted ways with the girl in the northern sea, they returned to the south from the sea. Since they were not in a hurry, they visited some places that they had not cared about before. of deep sea trenches.
Not long after they returned to the southern sea, they first went back to their cave, and then went to the southwest corner of the continent together, just because the girl once said that if she had not returned home, she might go to the southwest area of the continent to collect water.
They originally thought that the girl might have returned to her hometown after her travels, and wandered around the nearby sea in the mood for a walk. Unexpectedly, they smelled a familiar fragrance far away in the sea, and immediately rushed to the southwest corner, where they found the beautiful girl. A human girl.
Le Yun was a little surprised to see the familiar sky demon. When chatting with the three sky demons in the North Sea before leaving, she mentioned where she would travel in the future. She even mentioned that she would go to the restricted area of the Western Continent. If she didn't go home for the time being, she might... They went to the southwest of the mainland to collect water. Unexpectedly, the three heavenly demons actually got interested.
"Long time no see, you three, please help me watch over the swallowing snails. I'll go back and change the magic circle I set up." Seeing the three celestial demons approaching calmly, Mr. Le Xiao decisively acted as the shopkeeper and took the two swallowing snails. The snails are taken out of the sea water and thrown to the sky monsters.
As the saying goes, everyone who sees it has a share and cannot just let a few sky demons work. She took out four sky-swallowing snails and threw them all to the sky demons, asking them to help collect seawater.
The eyes of the king shark, the purple baleen whale, and the humpback whale suddenly brightened up. He immediately hugged the snail and said happily, "No problem." Then he plunged into the sea and dived deep to collect fresh water.
There are three aquatic celestial beings helping to control the swallowing snails. Le Yun returns to the coast to make changes to the magic circle. The protective magic circle also contains a killing circle. Regardless of humans or animals, anyone who breaks into the magic circle without permission will be struck by thunder.
In order to make it easier to get mountain spring water or process ingredients, she set up a magic circle covering a ten-mile area.
After flying around the magic circle and changing several positions, Le Yun walked into the place protected by the magic circle, placed several stoves in the open air not far from the wooden shed, and began to heat spiritual food.
A few years ago in the northern seas, she and the sky demon casually negotiated a deal. If she had not returned home and reached the southwest sea, the sky demons could make another deal if they wanted. They would help her collect water and the area where the southwest river flows into the sea. She collected river and sea sand, collected seaweed and seaweed in exchange for home-brewed wine and spiritual food.
Although it was said casually at that time, now the three heavenly demons have arrived as scheduled. Needless to say, Leyun also guessed that the three heavenly demons are willing to fulfill the verbal promises made in the past few years.
A gentleman's promise is worth a thousand pieces of gold. If the demons come as promised, she will keep her promise.
When traveling north with the Five Immortal Sect real people, although he ate a lot of stored spiritual food, Le Xiao still had some stock. He quickly put the stewed yak and camel beasts into the pot to heat, and then used seaweed to cook the pot. Fish head soup.
Before the fish head soup was out of the pot, he sensed the arrival of three celestial monsters and came out of the magic circle to pick them up.
