Chapter 137
Li Mu put the broken wood board into his wrist bag, took out his machete and began to chop the big fish that Qiao Sheng caught today. This kind of splitting work is troublesome, and he has to clean the internal organs, otherwise if he really punctures something, it will easily make the fish meat bitter.
"Why are all the fish so big today? It's strange. There were some small ones before, but there are really none today." Qiao Sheng still found it strange while fishing, and instructed Li Mu to throw the internal organs dug out to the sea turtles on the boat to eat. After all, it is miscellaneous food, so there is no need to take it to the bathroom on the second floor.
After hanging up 300 orders, Li Mu let Qiao Sheng take a break. The daily supply is fixed, so the two of them will not be too tired.
In the evening, they were going to eat noodles with oil, so they asked Li Mu to go and knead the dough first, while Qiao Sheng went to pick up things with the wooden hairpin.
After dinner, the two of them put out all the drifting bottles they had picked up in the past few days, and the task of opening the bottles this time was all given to Li Mu. He had his own luck points, plus the 15 points of luck points added by the fishbone bracelet, and the wooden hairpin could add an additional 30 points of luck points.
Adding all these together, the total luck points were 45 points, so there was no need to worry about not opening something good.
When Li Mu officially opened the bottles, he found that they still underestimated the importance of luck points. When Li Mu opened a critical hit drifting bottle in a row, the two of them really understood why Xia Beibei was so rich and inhumane.
"Is the material that was opened reasonable? Doesn't the system have any warnings?" Qiao Sheng brought over a few empty lockers and put all the materials he opened into them.
Li Mu was also a little dumbfounded. He had never seen such a situation since he entered the game. After opening more than 200 but less than 300 drift bottles, Qiao Sheng had already filled four lockers with materials. There was really everything, including wood planks, charcoal, rare metals, and iron products.
The most important thing was that he also opened a lot of atlases, which really made him happier than having more things.
The two of them looked through the atlases by the light of an oil lamp. The first few pictures were all about equipment, such as hoodies and pants. These were late, and Xia Beibei had made a lot for them, so they wouldn't need them in the short term.
The second picture was a T-shirt and shorts, and the third picture was a sun hat. These were all summer equipment, and the two of them thought that summer wouldn't be easy.
The fourth picture was rain gear. After the heavy rain in the fall, the family had raincoats and hats, so these items seemed a bit useless.
Many of the things in the back were things they had already made, including stone mills, stone mortars, and even a small shoulder bag Xia Beibei had made for them. It was really a headache.
Of course, there were some things that she had never seen before, such as the refrigerator that Qiao Sheng was most interested in, as well as an oversized quiver and high-attack metal arrows, the high-attack machete and arrows with special attributes that Xia Beibei made for them.
Li Mu took the materials from the storage box and made all these things one by one.
Qiao Sheng went for the refrigerator, which was similar to a real wardrobe, made of wood, and didn't feel like there was an air conditioner when she opened it. She felt that she had been cheated.
When she went to the food box in the kitchen and took the food and put it in, she realized what kind of magical treasure this was. The food put in it can stop the freshness of the food from consuming for 180 days. To put it simply, if you put fresh meat that is three days fresh, it will directly become 183 days, adding half a year of freshness.
When food is put in, the additional 180 days are consumed. When it is taken out, it is still fresh for three days.
"It's a fortune, Li Mu. This thing is no different from a bug. It's a godsend to have such a good thing in a survival game!" Qiao Sheng stroked the wooden cabinet and smiled brightly.
If there is a flaw in this cabinet, it must have one. The storage space is 25 grids, just like a storage box, which is incomparable to the 60 grids of a storage cabinet.
However, they can win by quantity. At most, they can make a few more. Qiao Sheng looked at the materials needed, 25 saltpeter, 30 wood boards, 10 iron products, and 5 rare metal steels. She couldn't understand these materials. She walked around the refrigerator for a long time but didn't see any trace of metal.
But none of this matters. Except for the fact that I feel a little sorry for using saltpeter, everything else is not a big deal.
One was not enough, so they made five directly. As a result, the kitchen could not hold them all. The fish was quite big, so Qiao Sheng finally moved them to the cabin, next to the greenhouse, with five of them neatly stacked in a row.
Except that it is a little troublesome when cooking, as you need to go into the cabin to get the ingredients and then go to the kitchen to cook, this short distance is not a problem at all under the premise of increasing the freshness. Before,
they had to limit the amount of fishing every day, but now they don’t need to do that. They have specially arranged a cabinet to store fresh fish. With inventory, they will not be in a situation where they have no fish to catch when they go to the island.
Qiao Sheng put away the refrigerator, and then went to Li Mu's side to see his newly made super-large quiver. The quiver associated with the crossbow can hold 100 arrows, which is already quite large. This super-large quiver, the description says it can hold 300 arrows.
This perfectly solves the situation where they need to fight each time they shoot the quiver empty, but this situation is not too common for them now.
Li Mu first hung the quiver on his waist, then collected all the arrows he and Qiao Sheng had, counted 300 and put them in. This guy is indeed a fine product produced by the system, which is very different from the cloth bag that Li Mu made casually before. Putting
300 arrows in and hanging it on the waist, it is not heavy at all. Qiao Sheng didn't think it was bigger when he looked at it. Li Mu said that when he carried it, he could see all the arrows in the quiver, and he could distinguish between ordinary arrows and special arrows.
Looking at the newly made metal arrows, they are very different from the arrows Li Mu made before. The previous homemade arrows did not have any attack power description. The description only said it was an arrow. The attack power column of this metal arrow only had 50-100 marked.
"What does this range mean? Is it 50 for shooting at the body and 100 for shooting at vital parts?" After playing the game many times, Qiao Sheng quickly realized the meaning of this attack power.
Then the two began to worry. There was nothing at home that could allow them to try the difference between the damage of this arrow with attack power and their homemade arrows, but it was certain that their attack power had a qualitative improvement. However, they were reluctant to
replace all the arrows with metal arrows directly. Those homemade arrows still had to be used on a regular basis. If they were damaged, they would be replaced with metal arrows and arrows with special attributes.
Make a new big quiver, divide these homemade arrows in half, put them in the two quivers, and then study the ratio of special attribute arrows to metal arrows.
When making these two types of arrows, the special attribute arrows also use a lot more materials than metal arrows. In the end, the two decided that each person's quiver should have 50 special attribute arrows. Li Mu still took the speed-reducing arrows, Qiao Sheng took the double damage arrows, and the two of them took half of the burning arrows.
The rest were all replenished with metal arrows. After the quiver was replenished, Qiao Sheng hung it on his waist to try it out. It must be said that it is much easier to pull it out directly from the waist than from the wrist bag.
The atlas I got this time was really satisfying. All my clothes, equipment, and military strength were improved. I was like a European emperor.
"I have to go into those dungeons more often in the future and get more props. What's the difference between this and cheating? Although there are a lot of repetitions with Beibei, they are all improvements for us." Qiao Sheng was so happy.
After packing up, the two of them went to the bathroom to wash up and went to bed early. With this refrigerator, it will definitely be a tough battle from tomorrow.
In the morning, I was woken up by the crowing of the little rooster downstairs. It's not good to have too many animals. It seriously affects the quality of sleep.
After getting up, Li Mu went downstairs to change the dressing for the little turtle lying on the bow. The big turtle beside the boat was already visibly anxious. If he hadn't come out, it would have capsized again.
Qiao Sheng went to the kitchen and made a simple breakfast. Since the jiashazi and the others fell in love with roasted sweet potatoes, this animal meal was also simple to make. A bowl of shark soup and two pieces of roasted sweet potatoes were enough to fill all four of them.
She received the fried fruit sent by Lin Haiyang. This guy fries some every few days and sends them to them. Qiao Sheng subsidized him with some coconut oil and flour every now and then, which caused a surge in the use of coconut oil at home, and there was not much stock left.
It’s not like she hadn’t thought about using peanuts to make oil, but her strength didn’t allow it, she didn’t know how to do it, and Li Mu didn’t have time, so she didn’t ask.
They had received a lot of coconuts on the island these days, so they could make some more coconut oil sometime.
With the fruit, Qiao Sheng didn’t make anything too complicated. He just took the wontons that he had wrapped before, threw an egg and added some preserved vegetables, and it was breakfast.
There weren’t many wontons and dumplings left at home, and they had to eat them quickly before, fearing that they would go bad. Now they don’t have to worry about that anymore, and they can prepare some more when they have time, put them in the refrigerator, and take them whenever they want to eat, which is convenient and saves trouble. After
changing the medicine for the little turtle, Li Mu came up to eat breakfast together. After the meal, the two of them were not idle, and they seized every opportunity to work.
The work on the ship is really fragmented and repetitive. There are several sets of work every day, which takes a long time, but you have to do it.
Every time this happens, Qiao Sheng is glad that he picked up Li Mu. At least there is someone to share the work with, and they can talk and chat. Otherwise, if they repeat the same work day after day, they will get sick sooner or later.
The two of them now have a division of labor and cooperation. Qiao Sheng goes to the third floor to plant, and Li Mu goes to the first floor to feed the livestock. It's easy to say, but it's quite troublesome to do it. If it's just feeding, it's still easy.
The next day, you have to clean up their nests, otherwise they will eat, drink, defecate and urinate in them. After a long time, no one can enter this cabin.
Qiao Sheng also has a lot of planting work to do upstairs. First, there is a harvest, and then there is planting again according to the stock in the food box.
Most of the newly harvested crops need to be dried. Those that can be hung on the drying rack are hung up, and those that cannot be hung are spread on the ground. Those that were dried the day before also need to be put away.
These crops will have to be further processed later. Some need to be threshed, and some need to be cut. It is really just for this bite of food, and there is endless work to do. At this time, she really felt the saying that the daily rush is all for three meals a day.
All the work was done, and half of the morning had passed. The two of them finally had time to return to the bow. Qiao Sheng picked up the fishing rod, and Li Mu continued to feed the little sea turtle.
