MTL - Cultivation of Immortals Begins with Drilling Wood To Make Fire-Chapter 42 【Inquiry about salt trace】

  Chapter 42 [Inquiry about salt traces]

  In the stone pit not far away, the lime has been disintegrated. Fang Chang picked up some and looked at it. He felt that the quality was not bad, and he could use it to resurface the floor in the room.

   This is mainly for waterproof and moisture-proof.

  The steps are relatively simple. Take some soil and mix it with slaked lime, mix well and spread it in the house. Although this mixture will not absorb water, it has a better effect on moisture insulation.

  In addition, the firepit in the house is always burning, which can improve the comfort of the house to a higher level.

  The most troublesome thing in this process is that the firewood supporting the bamboo plank bed needs to be moved out, and after the ground is paved with mixed soil and compacted, these things need to be moved back and placed high.

  Finally, re-lay the hay and bamboo bed boards on top.

Although Fang Chang fired a lot of bricks, the bricks are very useful, and he does not plan to use them for paving the ground for the time being. However, he spent some time dismantling the piles of bricks that he had stacked up before, and then made them for the straw shed. built a wall.

  It is only two feet high, which is considered a circle of protection.

   And without the use of adhesives.

  Afterwards, he simply spread concrete and waterproofed the grass shed and shack.

  Minor modifications to the environment will eventually make people more comfortable.

  ...

  …

  After drying the textiles, there is a fragrance of sunshine.

  Some people also say that it is the barbecue aroma of the corpses after the mites are killed by light, but no matter which explanation, it does not affect its good smell.

  Fang Chang put away the quilt hanging in the stone ring.

   They've been in the afternoon sun, dry and fluffy again.

   Re-made his bamboo bed, looked outside, the sun was gradually setting to the west, he threw the stone ax into the back basket, and walked down the cliff.

   Hunting time.

  After the deer ran away for a short while, he jumped more than ten feet, flew into the bushes, and held down a hare: "Where are you going!"

   This rabbit has seen Fang Chang hunt from afar, and he still remembers his fierce figure and decisive and fierce hands.

  Now seeing that he has fallen into the other party's hands, he struggled twice but still managed to get out, so he closed his eyes and thought to himself:

   "Ah, I'm dead."

  So he gave up resistance and was at the mercy of Fang Chang.

  My mind is full of the situation of this person catching the prey and killing him casually, all thoughts are lost.

   "It turned out that it only opened the spirit again."

  Fang Chang held the rabbit ears and picked them up, feeling a little regretful, lamenting that there are too many monsters in the mountains.

   Yun Zhongshan is so beautiful!

   And the one in his hand seems to have been saved from the flood.

  Although it is delicious in the legends of the Kailing Monster Beast, Fang Chang is not going to taste it, it will hinder his practice and even his spirit, and these little creatures with wisdom—

  —It’s really cute.

   After shaking for a few times, Fang Chang said with a smile: "Don't act like you have nothing to love, don't worry, I won't hurt you."

  The rabbit relaxed his tense body and looked at Fang Chang.

  Fang Chang saw his appearance and asked:

   "Maybe people say?"

  Although he was grabbed by the ears and lifted up, the little rabbit demon still shook his head with difficulty, expressing that he hadn't refined his bones yet.

  The monsters are quite easy to distinguish when they have spiritual intelligence, but because the horizontal bone is not a real bone, it is difficult to distinguish on the spot, so we can only ask.

  Seeing the rabbit demon shaking his head, Fang Chang was not disappointed.

   Refining the crossbone is not a simple matter, there is no one out of ten, and he encountered so many capable people during this period of time, which is actually an accidental event under a low sample size, which does not have much statistical significance.

   "Do you know where there is salt in this cloud mountain?"

  Hearing Fang Chang's question, the rabbit demon was taken aback. It didn't seem to know what salt was, or it might just be shocked.

  Seeing that the rabbit was a little dull in his hand, Fang Chang thought for a while, and then changed his words: "It's just that if you don't lick it, you will feel weak. It may be some soil, or it may be on the rock wall of the cave, or it may be white."

  The bag of coarse salt he brought up when he went up the mountain had already been used up. When he asked this question, he suddenly thought that these herbivores must have salt supplements.

  Ask around and you might be able to find the place of origin, so you can make brine and boil salt in pottery.

   He has no shortage of fuel or time.

  This time, the rabbit seemed to understand, bowed in the air, stretched out a front leg, turned around to point out the direction for Fang Chang.

  Because it was being carried by the ears, this action made it a little wobbly, so I could only keep exerting strength to keep the position of the front legs constant.

   Fang Chang smiled, put it on the ground, and said:

   "Can Brother Rabbit help me lead the way?"

  Of course the rabbit demon had no objection. He turned his head and bowed, then pointed in the direction, and ran forward.

  Fang Chang stepped forward to keep up.

   After turning over a dozen hills, there is a rocky peak in front of it. The rabbit monster in front of it is looking for a familiar route, jumping forward among the rocks.

   Its ears bounced up and down with the jump, and it climbed several feet in an instant.

  Fang Chang did not lag behind, and followed closely. When he took a step forward, it required the rabbit to climb up and jump many times, so he seemed to be strolling in the garden as usual.

  As the altitude gradually rises, the place gradually dries up, and the wind direction causes little water vapor here.

  The white figure in front suddenly stopped in one place, and then looked at himself.

  Fang Chang also stepped forward, and saw that this was a cave with a slanted, irregular opening. Seeing that Fang Chang followed, the rabbit demon walked slowly in.

  Why did you come to such a high place?

   Could it be that the rabbit demon ambushed five hundred knives and axes in the cave?

  A very interesting thought came to Fang Chang's mind. He shook his head and followed the rabbit into the hole.

  However, he could notice that there were many animal traces around the entrance of the cave, most of which were hoof prints, which showed that this place was indeed a place for herbivores to collect salt in the mountains.

  Salt Mine!

   It turned out to be a salt mine? Standing half a foot away from the entrance of the cave, Fang Chang stood still, a little surprised.

  Yunzhongshan is really rich in products...

   Now there is no need to boil the brine.

  The cave is slightly slanted upwards, and the inside is still a slanted flat space, but it gradually widens inside, like a crack.

  A few feet inside the cave, the walls are covered with entangled large and small square crystals, most of which are transparent or translucent, that is pure salt. Between the crystalline salt and the rock at the entrance of the cave, there is a layer of white minerals about a foot thick, which is cold water stone, that is, gypsum.

   Light comes in from the entrance of the cave, making the cave crystal clear and colorful.

  The rabbit demon squatted beside him, looking at the fairy next to him, and also at this cave.

  Fang Chang knew that he had saved the rabbit, but he didn't want to owe people the cause and effect, so he made some calculations and pointed out:

   "Thank you, Brother Rabbit, for your guidance. This is of great use to me."

   "I would like to give you a word of advice: Your opportunity to refine Henggu is in the north of Yunzhong Mountain. If you have free time, you can go to the north more often."

  The expression of the rabbit demon was colorful when he heard the words. It turned to Fang Chang, kowtowed three times, and then jumped out of the salt cave and headed down the mountain.

Fang Chang turned his gaze back and looked at the salt crystals in the cave. Some of the lower places were still licked by animals for many years. He knocked off a few pieces and tasted them. Kosher salt is much better.

  Such a huge amount of salt deposits proves that Yunzhongshan was once a vast ocean in the long geological time.

  This is the vicissitudes of life...

  Recalling the long time ago that is hard to go back, in the era far beyond written history, Yunzhong Mountain, a towering inland mountain, used to be a plain, located in the depths of the ocean.

  However, the change of time and geological movement made this place shallower, and the seawater evaporated and deposited, eventually forming a salt deposit. After another long time, this place became a towering peak due to the extrusion and uplift of the earth.

  Feeling the ancient time, Fang Chang's breath and mind are more in harmony with the heaven and the earth, and his cultivation has advanced to another level.

  Standing in the cave for a long time, even many antelope deer, muntjac hares and other animals passed by, licking the salt block, as if they didn't see the practitioner next to him.

   Taking a deep breath, Fang Chang came back to his senses.

  He picked pure square salt crystals from the salt wall, knocked off a few pieces, put them in a back basket and took them away.

  If seasoned, it can be used for a long time.
