84 - Whale Corpse

On the first day, Wei Hancheng only ensured that he had a place to live. He picked up a lot of firewood and dead trees, and lit the cave with fire all night.He deliberately placed the fire close to the door, hoping to scare the beasts that approached out of curiosity.And it can make the whole cave warm because of the reflection of the mountain wall in the cave.

He didn't sleep well that night, his dreams were full of fragments of memory, and many faces he didn't recognize.In the dream, he called Fan Sai and Cang Hua, and saw Yuren.As for the man with golden emerald eyes, he heard himself calling him: "He Sen."

When I woke up in the morning, the campfire was still warm.Wei Hancheng has camped in the wild many times, and knows how to press firewood so that he can sleep peacefully for several hours.It was too troublesome to start a fire, so Wei Hancheng didn't want the pyre to be extinguished if possible.This problem can be solved by adding thick firewood to the firewood pile. The thick firewood is more resistant to burning. Even if the open fire is extinguished, it can be re-ignited as long as it is blown with a kindling.

The firewood directly cut down cannot be used. This kind of firewood is wet firewood, which is not only difficult to burn and easy to extinguish, but also produces a lot of smoke.

There is still firewood to stockpile today, but there is a more important issue: food.

Yesterday he ate only one thing: coconut.

Of course, he ate it differently, boiled coconut milk, and roasted coconut.However, the fullness of coconut is just mixed with water. In terms of body function, coconut can still satisfy him for the time being, but in the long run, he still needs to eat other foods.

He took a look at Wanwei Knife, and the stuffing bin showed that it was full, which meant that he didn't have to worry about oil and seasoning for the time being.

Wei Hancheng is making a plan, today he will continue to explore the island, looking for ingredients.If you can eat enough at noon, then go to store dry firewood in the afternoon.

It is a good choice to go to the beach first to find food. In theory, it should be the best time to go when the tide is low, but Wei Hancheng just wants to get some coconut milk back.When there is no definite food, the sweet water in coconut milk can better maintain vital energy.

I am very fortunate that I still have the Wanwei Knife and the storage compartment on the Wanwei Knife, otherwise I will consume more energy and it will be difficult to survive.

Wei Hancheng returned to the beach. It seems that the tide is low here, but the tide has not completely ebbed yet.

It was just a huge beach, and he saw a huge corpse at a glance.

This should be a baby whale, less than two meters in size.Wei Hancheng observed repeatedly and found that the whale was dead.I can't tell the species, but it makes Wei Hancheng very disappointed.

Its mother may have also encountered misfortune, otherwise such a small whale would not have washed up on the beach alone and stranded.

Lost is lost, but this whale cannot be wasted.In human society, machines are used to cut whales, because the fat layer of whales is very thick.Luckily it's just a calf right now, and it's been dead for less than a day.

Whale oil cannot be eaten directly, it must be hydrogen-processed before it can be eaten.The fat of deep-sea animals is like this. If people eat it as fat, people will be like eating oily fish. No matter sitting, lying, waking or sleeping, the oil will flow out from the valley.But processed whale oil is a member of the classic butter recipe.

Whale oil can also be used for lighting, and has many chemical uses.Whale blubber is one of the raw materials for making explosives. Even the beginning of the industrial revolution was supported by a large number of whales being killed.In modern times, the industrial role of whales is not so high, and chemical synthesis can be completely replaced, and whale meat is not delicious.But on the earth, there is still a people who relentlessly refuse to abolish the vulgar custom of whaling.

Taking advantage of the low sun in the morning, Wei Hancheng painstakingly dissected the whale.Without the Wanwei Knife in his hand, even an ordinary knife, he would not be able to complete this big project.

The pelvis and skull serve as containers, filled with whale brain oil.The fat and meat are divided into pieces of similar size and neatly stacked in the freezer of Wanweidao.The skin is roughly treated and put away first. The subcutaneous tissue of whale skin does not taste very good, but Eskimos will swallow some every day in winter, so as to supplement a large amount of vitamins and prevent septicemia.

After dividing the whale, the whole body was bloody, but the meat obtained was very unpalatable.Wei Hancheng didn't know whether he was doing right or wrong, but it was so pitiful to see this baby whale die. Human beings respect other creatures in two aspects: one, don't disturb it, let it grow and die freely; Two, eat it carefully, don't waste it, let life be transformed into energy and transform into your own life.

Except for the whale liver, Wei Hancheng left all the parts of the other whales that he could not use or eat on the beach.The tides carry these back to the deep ocean, where they feed back other marine life.

Just now he was busy dividing the whale, his arms were almost too tired to lift, Wei Hancheng raised his head and looked around the beach.It was unexpected to find that beside the coconut grove in the distance, there was actually a...stainless steel chemical barrel.

This... This is also very similar to a game, but this kind of barrel may be washed ashore.It was an empty barrel with no sign of what it was previously in, and it looked new, not even buried in sand.

Wei Hancheng looked around and shouted: System!

No feedback for four weeks.

Hey, I was too worried, there is still room for one cubic meter, put this 200L barrel into the storage space and bring it back to the cave.

Put the exchanged baking soda in the bucket, set up the bucket directly by the river and set up a fire, throw all the clothes in to soak, and pour some white vinegar when washing.The blood-smelling clothes were cleaned quickly, and then they were taken to the river to be rinsed well and dried on the stones.

Then set up a bucket by the river, boil the mint in the bucket, and then take a good hot bath.

It's a pity that the Wanwei Knife can only be exchanged for ingredients related to ingredients, otherwise life will be more nourishing.

Wei Hancheng returned to the camp, hurriedly skewered a few skewers of whale meat with twigs, sprinkled with seasonings and began to eat.Fresh whale meat is much tastier than the ones I have eaten before. The fishy smell is still a bit after processing, and the taste is still slightly rough.But Wei Hancheng has been hungry for a day, and now everything is delicious.

After wolfing down a lot of whale meat, Wei Hancheng finally felt alive.

There was not much time left, but luckily enough time was enough for him to gather some firewood and come back.There seemed to be no one living on this island, and there were branches everywhere, and it was impossible to pick them all up.I really don't have the strength today, but fortunately I cut down a lot of thick dead tree sections yesterday, and I can still suppress the fire.Wei Hancheng hurriedly picked up many twigs and returned to the cave in the evening of the second day.

At night, Wei Hancheng only came to put the fire on, and fell asleep in a hurry.

He didn't realize that the originally hard cave became as soft as a bed after he fell asleep.His body was also covered with a layer of air quilt like a force field, colorless and weightless but able to keep warm.The firewood seemed to stand still, and continued to burn until midnight, as if someone had planned to keep it going until morning.

Wei Hancheng had a good night's sleep.

Surprisingly, he didn't feel back pain when he woke up, and he didn't have a cold.Even the bonfire can be rescued, and it has not been completely extinguished.He looked at the bruises on his body, and he found that these bruises healed very quickly when he took a bath yesterday. The injury that he thought would take about a week or half a month to heal, has recovered to a seven-eighth degree today.

And this sleep was very comfortable. When I woke up, I felt tired from yesterday, and even felt that I could dissect two more whales.

With nearly a hundred catties of whale meat in his hand, Wei Hancheng no longer worries about hunger and fullness, and can continue to look for other ingredients.

First of all, make some soap, otherwise bathing will be troublesome in the future. High-grade whale oil and caustic soda (Wanwei Daodui) are available, so there is no need to worry about the saponification reaction of soap.Because the soap has a maturing time after it is made, it should be made as early as possible so that it can be used early.

Wei Hancheng only plans to do four things today: stockpile firewood, find containers, find plants or fruits, and make soap.In the not too hot morning, he still decided to continue exploring the island first, looking for ingredients.

This island seems to be not small. Wei Han used his hands and feet to climb up the mountain, but he couldn't see the whole picture of the mountain. Instead, it was a taller mountain.If you want to climb the mountain continuously, it must take two or three days. If you have a container to store a large amount of drinkable fresh water, it is not impossible to explore farther places.

Wei Hancheng felt that the island was getting weirder and weirder along the way.Although there were birdsong that seemed familiar, he never spotted a bird.He never encountered Chongsheka along the way. Fortunately, he took a long wooden stick and beat the ground he was about to walk on, fearing that the poisonous snake would be bitten by disturbing him.

Although the road on the mountain is a bit difficult, it is a road that can be walked all the way, and because of the difficulties of climbing, this road is easy to identify.Even among the woods through which there was a path that seemed easier than the others.

Wei Hancheng found some mushrooms, but he didn't know much about mushrooms, so he didn't dare to eat them.It's just that he suddenly remembered a memory fragment. It seemed that the colonel said that mushrooms were delicious, and then a group of people picked up a lot of mushrooms, fruits and vegetables and came back.

Those faint memory fragments, Wei Hancheng slowly smiled in a daze, these memories are very warm, just the memories make people happy.

I seem to know a lot of people, new friends, adventure and eat and drink together every day, and have a very good time.

For the first time, Wei Hancheng anxiously wanted to recall, where did his friends go?Who is that man named He Sen?Suddenly I want to see him a little bit.

Although Wei Hancheng didn't dare to eat mushrooms, Wei Hancheng found burdock. He was not sure whether it was wild or not, because he always felt that the plants on this island subverted his common sense and grew randomly.Sure enough, he discovered carrots, onions and potatoes one after another.Wild vegetables can also recognize dandelion, water celery and cucumber.

Wei Hancheng numbly threw the abundant wild vegetables into the storage bin.

There are mountains between the first mountain and the second mountain, so it is not as far as you can imagine.Wei Hancheng didn't dare to leave until noon, fearing that he might not be able to go home in time.Although he didn't find the container, he found all the firewood and vegetables.He divided the storage bin into two parts, one part is for freezing meat, and the other part is for these sundries, which are not cleaned out until the cave is cleared.

He ate only coconuts along the way, and did not return to the cave until the afternoon.

However, when cleaning the ingredients by the river, Wei Hancheng was surprised to find a clay pot ear in the sand by the river. He dug out the clay pot with a stick, and it happened to be a container that was just used for cooking.

Wei Hancheng: ...

He became more and more suspicious of this island, as if it could make people's wishes come true? ! !
