Travel through Sand Sculpture Snow Tea Plane Wandering Records

Chapter 8
Chacha was awakened by a strong vibration.

The reason is that the sand sculpture detected a thermal reaction not far away, and launched a vibration to roughly warn the owners of Xingcha.

This kind of warning will only happen if both people are inside Xingcha.Chacha quickly put on a long gown and took A Xue out, frantically putting the shrunken Xingcha into the special satchel.Then he hid nervously behind a fairly huge ancient tree.The morning wind whimpered and wailed, and the two clenched their palms tightly, their chests heaving violently.

A few minutes later, a strange figure appeared in the field of vision.

It was a middle-aged woman with a basket on her back and a sickle in her hand, her hair was covered with morning dew.On the dry cheeks, a pair of dark eyes shone shrewdly.It is indeed the most prosperous city with a radius of hundreds of miles, and the probability of humans appearing around it is much higher than other places.

The woman stopped in front of the tree where Chacha was hiding.Chacha felt her heart was about to jump out, a green worm crawled across her wrist, Chacha remained motionless, her hands tightly pressed against the bark.The woman bent down, dug a grass and threw it into the basket.Looking carefully, it seems that it is the most expensive kind of wild vegetables that Chen Mei taught them to identify.The woman stood up, took two steps forward, and frowned suspiciously.

Chacha's heart beat into her throat.It's over, to be discovered.If the disheveled hair is found, will it be regarded as a female ghost?
The woman reached out and touched the moss on the bark.He touched his nose again.After coughing twice, he clenched his sickle and moved towards the direction where Ah Xue was hiding.

Axue swallowed her saliva and did not dare to move.The woman walked around the place where Xingcha was originally parked, and left after digging two wild vegetables.Neither of them seemed to be found.

After the woman left, A Xue and Chacha adjusted their clothes and decided to change to another place to sleep.

Chacha looked around with a binoculars.This telescope is taken from the original astronomical telescope. It is light, exquisite and easy to carry, but the imaging is opposite to the reality, and it is upside down.They should stay in the city for a period of time, and it is better to make Xingcha's place close to the city so that it is not easy to be found.

Alas, it would be great if Xingcha could disguise himself.He can still stand in the city without anyone noticing.

The birds in the woods chirped crisply, and the sleepiness of the two gradually dissipated.Axue asked Chacha to take out her phone, and looked at the photos all the way to find edible wild vegetables.Chacha followed suit, but she was catching bugs, specifically looking for small bugs with strange shapes.

The sun broke through the clouds, and the air was getting hotter and hotter.The two found a place to live.

This is a natural cave with a small entrance, covered with weeds, and very desolate.The inner space is huge, and the sunlight cannot penetrate, exuding hazy colors.Chacha opened the star pen and visually inspected the space of the cave. The height of eleven or twelve meters was just right for placing the star.

"No one should come here." Ah Xue worriedly followed Chacha.I bumped into the stairs when I came out in the morning, and my knee still hurts badly.The cave was slippery, and Axue carefully supported the wall.

"Who knows, maybe I'll meet the Bone Demon." Chacha laughed ferociously, and the sound echoed back and forth in the cave, which was extremely terrifying.The red light from the star pen hits the wet stalactites, emitting bursts of white smoke.This pen was modified by Chacha, and after coming to another world, it was reprocessed under the guidance of Sand Sculpture. Its irradiation distance is 10 kilometers, and its power is comparable to that of a laser weapon.After all, traveling in another world will inevitably lead to accidents.

"Why don't you say it's a spider spirit? I think this place looks like a pansi cave." A Xue frowned and turned on the flashlight of her phone.Then there was an uncontrollable scream, "Chacha, you crow mouth!"

There is a skeleton in the sunken interior of the cave. The deformed skull lies on a pile of irregular long bones, which looks even more terrifying under the pale light.Axue stepped back repeatedly, feeling uneasy.Chacha bravely stepped forward to check.She found this cave with great difficulty, and she didn't want to give up so early.The head is very pointed, and there seems to be something else on the skull. "It has horns. It seems to be the Bull Demon King."

"How did you die?" Axue asked.It's not human bones, she has other worries.

"I don't know." Chacha said, "Anyway, he wasn't beaten to death by a monkey. His bones turned black, maybe he died of poison."

"Then let's change places?"

"I'm talking nonsense. The skull is deformed, and it may have fallen into it and killed it. This place is rare, and it's close to the city. Why don't you put down the Xingcha and let the sand sculpture check the environment?"

"Alright." Ah Xue was also tired from walking.And this cave is indeed hidden.

Chacha put Xingcha in a stable position.After the sand sculpture inspection, this place is considered suitable for living except for the relatively high humidity.Anyway, they didn't stay long.

After breakfast, Ah Xue went back to the bedroom to catch up on sleep.

Chacha moved the wine she bought yesterday into the laboratory on the third floor.

In the middle of the laboratory stands a multifunctional round table, on which there are masson pine resin harvested a few days ago, as well as washed and dried bird egg shells.There are many cubicles around the table.Each compartment contains a set of equipment.There is a compartment with a red indicator light, and the device will enlarge the moment it is taken out.

Chacha took out a set of distillation equipment, put the resin in it, and patiently heated it.

As time passed, one end of the equipment finally separated the temporarily useless turpentine.Chacha didn't care about it, and started looking for tools to fix the cleaned egg shells.These eggshells are quite fragile, and Chacha accidentally scrapped several of them.

The last drop of turpentine fell into the cup, and Chacha took out the remaining material in the device, filtered and cooled to obtain a few pieces of rosin the size of an egg.Then the distillation device was disassembled and reassembled, and the wine in the jar was poured into it. The slightly turbid liquid was purified by two distillations and became pure and transparent.

After the preparation, Chacha heats and melts the smallest piece of rosin, puts distilled wine in a ratio of 10:1, and then carefully pours it into the fixed eggshell.

When the temperature of the rosin mixture cools down, Chacha puts an insect in, occupying exactly half of the eggshell.After it is completely solidified, continue to pour in the mixed liquid of rosin and distilled wine.

About half an hour, the rosin is completely solidified, and Chacha carefully peels off the shell with a blade.Wipe its surface lightly with alcohol, and an artificial amber is finished.

Chacha admired her debut work with satisfaction, seemingly unable to pick out any flaws.Turn the angle at will, and suddenly find a little air bubbles around the insect.

Failure is the mother of success.Chacha physically dries the remaining bugs.Repeat the previous steps again, several times, and finally make a crystal clear amber.The golden light shines into Chacha's eyes, as if it is not a plaything made of resin, but a heavy gold stone.She hurried downstairs: "Axue, how much do you think this can sell for?"

"Damn it!" Axue took it from Chacha's hand carefully, and exclaimed softly into her eyes, "Chacha, did you make a beast soul?"

"Beast soul?" Chacha heard a new word.

"You made it out of pine resin, didn't you?"

"Yes!" Chacha nodded hurriedly.

"That's right. Amber was once called beast soul in ancient times. It was believed to be the soul of a tiger after death. It fell into the ground and turned into a sacred stone. It has the effect of attracting good luck and avoiding evil, and calming the nerves." Axue patiently explained , "For nobles or emperors, the symbolic meaning of beast souls is even stronger. And you also added bugs."

"It means it can be sold for a lot of money?"

"I don't know if I'll be recognized." A Xue tilted her head and thought for a while, "Why don't you try your luck in the city tomorrow."

"That's the only way." Chacha smiled slyly, "I don't know who will be taken advantage of."

"At worst, I'll take the money and run away. This thing must be very expensive." Ashue said, "By the way, do you have any leftover scraps? I want to use them to make hairpins. Well, I can also pretend to be beeswax."

The two were busy with each other, and Chacha went to the kitchen to bring the coarse salt bought yesterday to the laboratory.Start further purification.Out of the corner of his eye, he caught sight of the bright amber on the test bench, feeling extremely beautiful in his heart.

There is only one successful amber, and it seems that it cannot be sold directly on the street.I don't know if there is an auction house in this era, and she can still disguise herself as a man to be a trustee.
