Ice Season: Day 33 at Sea 2
While the sea is still ice-covered, hurry up and go fishing for treasure chests. Who knows if it will freeze over at night?
Yun Mianmian put up the fishing rod and decided to wait and see. After all, she was lucky today, and maybe she would get something soon.
And today she would make her wish come true, so she had to think about the good things she wanted while fishing.
Ten minutes later, the fishing rod in Yun Mianmian's hand moved.
She pulled it up quickly.
The first one was a golden treasure chest.
Just as she thought.
But this time it was locked.
Yun Mianmian was a little surprised.
It seemed that this was the first golden treasure chest with a lock.
Because she hadn't encountered a locked treasure chest for so long, Yun Mianmian had forgotten whether she still had the key.
Items like these that only have one or two and don't need to be kept fresh are not put in backpacks nowadays because they take up too much space.
Yun Mianmian hurried to the storage room to look for them.
In the end, she actually found three key fragments.
Great, they can be combined into a key.
Yun Mianmian quickly combined them.
Soon, a complete key appeared in her hand.
She opened the treasure chest without thinking.
All she saw was golden light.
[Congratulations! Good luck~whatever you wish for comes true!】
[Get closed stove blueprint × 1, grill blueprint × 1, grinder blueprint × 1, iron ore × 10, glass × 20, plastic × 20]
Among them, Yun Mianmian wanted the closed stove blueprint the most. Isn't this a fireplace?
With this, she doesn't have to design it herself, and it may not be done well even if she works hard.
Now she can make it directly on the workbench after finding all the materials.
Yun Mianmian worked non-stop and took it to make it directly, and put the fishing rod on the automatic device.
[Closed boiler (can be made on advanced workbench): A dual-purpose boiler that can burn water to generate heat and cook food. It comes with a multi-fuel grille and can be used with firewood, charcoal or firewood. It comes with a baffle to control airflow.
Required materials: Iron ore × 12, glass × 5
Daily consumption of coal × 20 or firewood × 30 or charcoal × 20]
If you want to warm up the entire greenhouse, you should need two boilers. The greenhouse is about ten square meters. Yunmianmian built the greenhouse according to the size of a bedroom.
To keep the whole room warm, in addition to these two boilers, you also have to install an insulation layer.
"Excuse me, what are you going to do with these glasses? Do you have any special requirements? If not, I will just do it directly." Zhao Fuyun sent a message.
Yun Mianmian took out the book about greenhouses and took a look.
"Help me make double-layer glass. If you don't have enough materials, ask me for more."
"Double-layer glass? That will consume a lot of materials."
Yun Mianmian: "It doesn't matter, just make it."
She didn't tell the other party that it was used to make a greenhouse. There was no need.
Zhao Fuyun just thought that Yun Mianmian was a bit wasteful. What could be done with so many glasses to make double-layer thick glass sheets at this time?
According to her requirements, to make all the glass sheets she wanted, it would take seventy or eighty glasses.
To make it double-layer, it would take at least half more glass.
A hundred glasses, all of which can be used for upgrading.
It's too extravagant!
Zhao Fuyun thought it was a pity. Wouldn't it be better to use it for upgrading?
Or did they upgrade it a long time ago?
But she is just an employee, so she just does what she is told, regardless of what others say.
In fact, the reason why Yun Mianmian spends a lot of materials to make double-layer glass is because it has a better thermal insulation effect. If a single layer is used, the heat will dissipate quickly.
It is expensive, but since everything is used, of course it must be done to the best.
It takes seventy or eighty glasses to make a single layer, so it is better to add some and make it double-layer directly.
If everything goes well, her greenhouse will be completed tomorrow or the day after tomorrow.
It seems that there is aluminum in the coral reef, but it was not found yesterday. Aluminum can be used to make aluminum products, and it seems that it can also be used for thermal insulation.
Yun Mianmian's mind is now full of thermal insulation, and the knowledge she has read in books can be flexibly applied.
Yes, not only the greenhouse needs insulation, but also her house, doesn't it?
Otherwise, she will be cold too.
She had to lay the foundation, find supplies, cook, practice martial arts, make stoves and goods, and more urgently, she had to go into the water to find the U-shaped island.
Yun Mianmian wished she had the ability to clone herself, so that she could become three or five of herself, do all these things at the same time, and then integrate them into her own body.
Yesterday, the sea turtle said it was flooded and she had to go into the water to find it.
The tar was on the sea, but she didn't know where it was. She had to find the island to locate the area where the tar was distributed.
Let's make breakfast first.
The remaining food has been eaten up, and she is also responsible for making food for Nie Yangguang.
The work for the day has been arranged since the morning.
It has to be done anyway, so why not make it more abundant.
Yun Mianmian took flour and potatoes from the storage room, and some wild onions that she had picked during the experiment on the desert island. She never planted them, but there were still some onions left.
Cut the potatoes into strips, mince the onions, add flour and water to make meat pie, put the potato strips and onion chops on top, and turn the pie over after it is formed.
Finally, sprinkle with spices and salt.
The golden potato and onion pie is very easy to make. It
has both vegetarian and meaty dishes .
Yun Mianmian took out a piece of wild boar from her backpack, cut off a part of the leg meat, chopped it into meat paste, added wild vegetables and mixed evenly, then added seasoning. After the meat filling was ready, it was directly fried in a frying pan into meat pie.
I made five of each of the delicious meat pie and potato and onion pie.
Finally, cut a quarter of the cantaloupe, put it on a plate, and placed it on the dining table.
Yun Mianmian took a screenshot and sent a photo to Nie Yangguang.
Nie Yangguang: "Wow! Damn, Mianmian, you are trying to kill me."
Yun Mianmian: "Breakfast is here. I'll give you four cakes. Is that enough?"
Nie Yangguang: "That's enough."
Yun Mianmian: "I'll give you some cantaloupe to try."
Nie Yangguang: "I knew you were the best."
Nie Yangguang had just gotten up and was still in bed, not wanting to come out. It was too cold outside, and it was hailing, so he couldn't go out.
So he didn't urge Yun Mianmian to eat.
When he saw these delicious foods, he got up immediately.
After eating, you won't feel cold anymore, and you can still work!
Nie Yangguang also remembered what Yun Mianmian said, that the sea might freeze, and he should have fished the treasure chest earlier.
Yesterday, Yun Mianmian gave him a whole day's worth of food at once, and he thought it was a lot, so he shared some with Wen Yushi and a few other friends.
In the end, it wasn't enough for him.
But everyone said it was delicious, thanked him, and gave him gifts in return.
Today, Yun Mianmian only gave him breakfast, and Nie Yangguang was drooling as he looked at it. It seemed like he didn't have enough to eat, so he didn't share it with others.
-
Yun Mianmian ate two cakes and finished the cantaloupe, and she was full. She left the remaining cakes in her backpack, planning to eat them later to replenish her energy. After all, going into the water would consume too much energy.
Before going into the water, she had to stew two large pots of pig's feet.
Pig's feet stewed with soybeans is suitable for nourishing the body in cold weather. It can replenish qi and blood and improve health.
She used soybeans that she got a long time ago.
The soybeans need to be soaked for an hour first, but Yun Mianmian estimated that she didn't have that much time to soak them for so long, so she just soaked them for a while.
While soaking the soybeans, put the pig's feet in clean water and boil them, add ginger slices, and remove the floating foam after boiling.
Seeing that it was almost done, Yun Mianmian put the soybeans in and boil them together.
After cooking, Yun Mianmian went to change her equipment and prepare to go into the water.
It would take about an hour to cook, and she could go into the water twice.
After two trips, it was just enough time to season it and simmer it until it was soft.
-I
have to say that the temperature has dropped, but the feeling in the water seems to be about the same.
Yun Mianmian had experience this time, so she did not dive into the seabed, but snorkeled below the sea level, looking for the submerged desert island everywhere.
If it is submerged, at most it will be covered by sea water, because the sea level will not rise that much.
I couldn't find it before because I didn't expect the island to be submerged.
Now it's easier to find it now that I have a direction.
The advantage of snorkeling over deep diving is that you don't have to worry about lack of oxygen. You can go up and take a breath in a while. You just need to replenish your physical strength. As long as your body can bear it, you can keep looking in the water.
In fact, if I could get an oxygen tank, maybe I could stay in the water longer.
Yun Mianmian thought about this and decided that when she went fishing for the treasure chest, she would make a wish to open an oxygen tank. That way, she could collect more supplies from the coral reefs on the seabed today.
But now she still had to hurry up and find the U-shaped island.
She continued to dive into the water.
Finally, she lived up to her expectations. After soaking in the water for nearly an hour, she found the same place as the one drawn on the distribution map.
This is it.
Yun Mianmian swam over excitedly.
Her head emerged from the water, and seeing that she had no strength left, she quickly raised her hand, took out a potato onion pancake, and ate it with difficulty.
After slowing down and gradually recovering her strength, she swam towards her goal again.
When she arrived at the place, she smelled a strange smell.
There were large pieces of tar floating on the sea.
The unique color of the tar made it recognizable at a glance, and because there was too much of it and it piled up together, the smell was very pungent.
So much tar can only be collected with buckets.
Yun Mianmian excitedly made a mark and threw a few bottles on the sea so that this place could be seen from a distance.
There were only a few buckets in her backpack, and she couldn't collect much. She had to go back, drive the boat over, and then make hundreds of buckets and collect it slowly.
According to her visual estimation, if all the tar here was collected, it should be worth tens of thousands.
This is a huge fortune! She tried it and found that one bucket could collect fifty portions of tar.
Yun Mianmian was extremely excited.
She rushed back to the boat.
If you make the bucket by yourself, you will definitely not be able to finish it in a short time, and you must stay at the workbench.
She had to find someone to place the order, and at least eighty barrels had to be made first.
One hundred barrels equals five thousand servings.
Yun Mianmian was so anxious that she didn't even have time to sign a contract with everyone this time, so she had to ask an acquaintance to help her do it quickly.
She sent messages to Luo Luo, Hu Yuan, Nie Yangguang, Rong Yu, Shi Nancheng... all of them.
The content of the message is the same.
"Urgent, if you are free, help me make ten iron buckets."
Metal containers are better for storing oil. They are opaque and impermeable to oxygen and can keep the oil fresh. Iron buckets are currently the most convenient to make. They can be made on a basic workbench and just use iron blocks.
Then Yun Mianmian sent private messages to the players who had workbenches that she had contacted yesterday.
She asked them to stop what they were doing and make ten iron buckets for her.
It would take at most ten minutes to make ten iron buckets, and Yun Mianmian offered them a reward of tar.
They agreed quickly.
After all, tar is expensive now.
Her friends also replied to her messages one after another, saying that they would give it to her as soon as it was done.
Yun Mianmian breathed a sigh of relief. She first went to season the pig's feet that had been stewed for a long time. The water was almost dried up, so she added two bowls of water to the pot.
It would be ready after stewing for another half an hour.
Then she quickly made a few iron buckets to use first.
Yun Mianmian held a bucket in each hand, tied the buckets with ropes, and then threw them into the tar sea and scooped up a bucket. She
thought that this bucket would be pure tar.
But when she clicked on the details, she found that it was not possible to scoop it up this way because it was mixed with seawater. She had to scoop up only the floating layer of tar on the top, as she had just done.
But that would take too much time, and she would have to jump into the sea to scoop it up.
In the end, Yun Mianmian decided to just scoop it up like this. At worst, she could just scoop it up first and then separate it when the time came.
But that would require making more iron buckets.
Yun Mianmian immediately added orders to those people, asking them to make thirty iron barrels each so that the benefits would be multiplied.
With everyone's help.
In half an hour, Yun Mianmian received a hundred iron barrels one after another. She distributed the tar to the working players as agreed before.
Then she gave half a barrel of separated tar to each of the friends who helped.
Half a barrel of tar is twenty-five portions.
After receiving it, they were all very surprised. They didn't expect that they could get so many benefits by making a few iron barrels.
They all said that it was too much and there was no need to give so many.
But Yun Mianmian didn't have time to reply to them.
She was so busy that she didn't have time to eat the stewed pig's feet. She just filled a bowl and gave it to Nie Yangguang as lunch.
Then she continued to collect.
Yun Mianmian threw the bucket down and picked it up again. It was exhausting to do this simple action hundreds of times.
-Four
and a half hours later.
With Yun Mianmian's unremitting efforts, she got more than three hundred barrels of tar. Although the tar still had to be separated, it was at least ten thousand portions.
She collected all the tar in the entire sea.
But Yun Mianmian thought that ten thousand portions were not so bad. It was still unknown how much she could earn by making ten thousand tar lamps and selling them.
How she should set the price was also a problem.
It would be great if the system could recycle it.
Sell it to the mall.
In the mall, one tar costs three starfish coins. Yun Mianmian can sell three starfish coins with one tar lamp, which means thirty thousand starfish coins...
But she was just thinking about it, the system would definitely not want her.
In short, with these tars, it would be a huge asset.
Yun Mianmian sat on the chair and relaxed for a while, taking a breath, and drinking a mouthful of pig's trotter soup first.
The pig's trotter was stewed too soft. It
was really stewed for too long. Yun Mianmian picked up a pig's trotter. There was no need to chew it. It melted in the mouth. The collagen melted in the mouth, leaving the tendons of the pig's trotter. With a light bite, the meat fell apart.
The soup was extremely rich, with the aroma of meat and beans blended together. After drinking it, she breathed a sigh of relief.
It was so comfortable.
It was really a healing pig's trotter soup.
Because ginger slices were added to the soup, it was also very cold-relieving, so Yun Mianmian drank a big bowl of it.
This big pot was enough for her to eat slowly for two days.
However, she still had to take care of Nie Yangguang's diet.
It was okay for her to eat the same thing morning, noon and night, but if Nie Yangguang also ate like this, Yun Mianmian felt it was not good.
So Yun Mianmian decided not to worry about other people's meals in the future. She was so busy that she couldn't even take care of herself, and ended up worrying about other people's meals, which was too troublesome.
Just after she finished eating, the fishing rod she placed on the automatic device moved.
Yun Mianmian saw it with her sharp eyes. As soon as the bell rang, she walked to the fishing rod.
Unexpectedly, she pulled up another golden treasure chest.
Good things come one after another.
It was so cool.
This time the treasure chest didn't have a lock, so Yun Mianmian could open it directly.
Before opening it, Yun Mianmian made a wish silently, and repeated in her heart what she wanted.
[Whatever you think will come true! Good things will definitely happen!]
[Obtained: high-pressure diving oxygen cylinder × 1, exhaust fan drawing × 1, "Cantonese Cooking Treasure Book Secret Book" × 1, cast iron pot × 1, glass wool × 10]
It came just when I needed an oxygen cylinder.
Exhaust fans are also needed in greenhouses.
This secret book is for adding cooking skill points.
The cast iron pot is very useful and can be used to stew dishes.
Glass wool is a very good thermal insulation material.
Yun Mianmian put them all away.
-With
the oxygen cylinder, Yun Mianmian had to hurry into the water in the last two hours before dark.
She planned to dive deeper and collect more supplies. In
two hours, she had to bring back more minerals.
Yun Mianmian made up her mind not to come back until she got enough. The oxygen cylinder would definitely be enough for a few hours.
Yun Mianmian drank another bowl of pig's trotter soup before going into the water, and her physical strength was replenished.
-The
seabed seemed darker than yesterday, but Yun Mianmian had a headlamp, so she didn't have to worry about not being able to see. The sea water was very clean and the visibility was still very high.
She was already used to the pressure in the water, so it wasn't as strenuous as the previous two times when she dived.
This time she saw another giant octopus.
Thinking of the ice marrow she got from killing the octopus last time ,
Yun Mianmian's eyes lit up.
Although the octopus was hard to kill, it had ice marrow! That was her hope for reaching level six.
Yun Mianmian decided to take a risk and kill another one.
And a giant octopus has a lot of meat.
Just as Yun Mianmian was about to take action, she heard the octopus cry out.
"Please, don't kill me!"
Yun Mianmian was stunned.
Why is this one different from the last one?
Its cry is very delicate, soft, and a little cute.
Yun Mianmian didn't know if it was her illusion, but it sounded like that.
The last octopus was very aggressive, had a hoarse and ugly voice, and wanted to kill her.
Why does this octopus speak so softly? It seems to be that big too, it must be a giant octopus. It looks
as ugly as that one, and its tentacles are also scary, but after hearing it speak, Yun Mianmian inexplicably thinks it seems much more pleasing to the eye.
Yun Mianmian didn't stab with the knife.
"Don't kill me, I can take you to find a baby."
Baby? !
Yun Mianmian became interested.
It was not convenient to talk in the sea, Yun Mianmian thought about it and thought, why not take it on board!
But Yun Mianmian had not yet gone to collect supplies from the coral reef.
Forget it, take it on board first and talk about it later.
There was no need to worry about delaying it for a while, maybe it could really help her find something good.
Yun Mianmian grabbed it, but it scared it a lot. Its tentacles were like ropes, wrapping Yun Mianmian up like a big rope, as if it wanted to do something to Yun Mianmian. As soon as Yun Mianmian took out the dagger, it immediately ran away.
Yun Mianmian: "..."
"Don't kill me."
Yun Mianmian put away the dagger, grabbed one of its tentacles and pulled it up.
The octopus was a little resistant at first, but then it seemed to see that Yun Mianmian had no intention of doing anything to it, so it stopped moving.
When it reached the surface of the sea, Yun Mianmian was finally able to speak.
"I won't kill you, but you have to listen to me."
"Yeah."
"I'll take you to my boat, be good, and don't mess around with your tentacles, or I'll chop them all off."
Yun Mianmian deliberately frightened it, but unexpectedly it started crying.
"Oh, oh, oh, no!"
Yun Mianmian: "Okay, I won't chop you if you listen to me."
"Okay."
Yun Mianmian really didn't understand why the same giant octopus was so different.
Maybe yesterday it was just an old man octopus, and this one was just a girl octopus?
But it was also too big. After getting on the boat, Yun Mianmian found that it was even bigger than the one yesterday.
Because after Yun Mianmian killed the octopus yesterday, its body was completely spread out, and it was smaller than the one in front of me.
The one in front of me was still curled up, and it looked bigger than the one yesterday. It would be terrible if it spread out.
After getting on the boat, Yun Mianmian wiped off the water on her body, otherwise she would freeze immediately.
She took the octopus to the first floor of the cabin, where there was a radiator, so it wouldn't be too cold.
After entering, Yun Mianmian asked: "What is the treasure you are talking about?"
"It's so comfortable, it's so comfortable here!"
"It's hot."
As a result, the octopus began to swim around, its tentacles sliding on the ground, leaving wet water marks, and it also stuck to the radiator, as if seeking warmth.
Its body is huge, and it is even more exaggerated when it spreads out at this time.
Yun Mianmian looked a little uncomfortable.
Yun Mianmian: "Okay, answer my question."
Yun Mianmian is in a hurry.
"It's the treasure in the seabed!"
The octopus answered in a low voice. It thinks Yun Mianmian is very fierce, but it is not very afraid of Yun Mianmian, otherwise it would not dare to stay here.
Yun Mianmian: "Where is it?"
"It's on the seabed, very deep."
Yun Mianmian: "Have you been there? Can you take me there?"
"I think I have been there."
Yun Mianmian: "..."
"What does the treasure look like?"
It thought for a while and described it: "Glowing!"
"What else?" "
It's hidden in the ice. It's too cold and I don't like it."
Yun Mianmian thought of the ice marrow that it got from killing its peers last time. Maybe it was the ice marrow it was talking about.
However, since the octopus is afraid of cold and likes warmth, why does it carry the ice marrow with it?
What is this thing used for?
In addition to being used for upgrading, it should have a more important function.
Yun Mianmian: "What is the treasure used for?"
"I don't know."
"Then take me there now."
The octopus stopped talking.
Yun Mianmian frowned: "Didn't you say you would take me to find the treasure?"
The octopus was a little aggrieved: "But... it's very dangerous there, baby."
Yun Mianmian: "What's the danger?"
"A lot of big guys."
Yun Mianmian thought about it, what big guys would be dangerous in this place.
Soon she thought of it.
Leopard seals, or killer whales.
Killer whales are a very ferocious type of whale, and leopard seals are a very scary carnivorous beast.
They may all be on the seabed.
Yun Mianmian: "What big guy?"
The octopus just kept repeating that it was very big, nothing else.
Seeing its frightened look, it didn't dare to take her to find the baby.
It was just a lie to prevent her from killing it.
Yun Mianmian: "Then do you have a baby?"
"No, no, I don't like it, it's too cold."
Yun Mianmian had no choice but to say, "Forget it, go away."
Seeing its pitiful look, she didn't want to kill it. It was a spiritual animal, as long as it was not dangerous, she would just let it go.
And the sea turtle also saved her last time.
Yun Mianmian brought it to the side of the boat, threw it overboard, and then dived back into the sea.
She didn't care where the octopus went. Time was running out, and she had to hurry to collect resources.
No one knew whether the sea water would freeze tonight. Today she already felt a thin layer of flaky ice on the ice surface, but the area was not large and not obvious.
If it freezes, she will have fewer opportunities to go into the water again.
And she may not be able to withstand such a low temperature.
It is better to collect as much as possible now.
An hour and a half later, Yun Mianmian finally floated to the surface.
This time she gained a lot. Not only did she find a lot of coal resources, phosphate mines and coral limestone, but she also found several kinds of minerals - aluminum mines and copper mines.
But the amount of ore is very small, only a few.
In addition, she picked up some sponges and scallops.
There are many fine holes in the body of the sponge, which can filter harmful substances in the water. She picked some up to see if she can use it.
She wants to make a self-circulating water pipe to simply filter the domestic water and then irrigate it to the fields in the greenhouse.
After getting on the boat, Yun Mianmian went directly to the first floor of the cabin. She planned to change clothes here and then take a shower.
As a result, as soon as she walked in, she saw the big octopus that she had let go, sleeping on the radiator.
