Chapter 180
They couldn't solve Xia Beibei's problem. After all, the dungeons they entered were not of the same id. According to the settings of this game, they would definitely not have the same coordinates.
Qiao Sheng gave Xia Beibei the coordinates of the island of Master Jiang on their side. As soon as she entered it, she said it must be wrong. The coordinates on her map showed a vast sea, and there was no island at all.
It seemed that except for the people who entered the dungeon, other people could not see their dungeon at all.
In the morning, he arranged for Li Mu to make some simple breakfast. Now Teacher Li has mastered a lot more types of breakfast. He can still make fried eggs, fried bacon, hot pancakes, etc.
Qiao Sheng went up to the third floor, first filled the livestock trough with food, and then began to plant the pots. In fact, she had used some Chinese medicine to treat Wang Xiaohua's illness and to replenish Jiang's mother, and now she had to plant these.
Chinese medicine matures slower than ordinary crops. Ordinary crops can be harvested four times a day, but Chinese medicine planting can only harvest one or two times a day, which makes these crops particularly precious.
After planting all the pots, Li Mu called her downstairs for breakfast. When Qiao Sheng came out of the third-floor cabin, she felt that the sun was particularly hot. While eating, Li Mu also said that he felt particularly hot when he just made breakfast and sweated a lot.
After dinner, the two of them went into the bathroom and changed their sweatshirts into T-shirts, because they couldn't wear long-sleeved clothes anymore.
"Isn't it summer already? Has it been three months?" Qiao Sheng returned his clothes and came out to drink the boiled water on the table. He was sweating too much and felt like he was almost dehydrated. Li Mu
changed his clothes and went to the kitchen to make a large pot of electrolyte water. He poured another cup for Qiao Sheng and another for himself. He walked to the terrace while drinking the wine, looked up at the sun in the sky and the trees in the large planting pots on the terrace, and concluded that summer officially began today.
Collecting fresh water from the seawater purifier, they found that the amount of fresh water that could be collected had decreased. It should be because the weather was too hot and it evaporated. Li Mu added a lot of water to it again. The first benefit of entering summer appeared. The efficiency of the seawater purifier became higher.
It took less than an hour to collect a full plastic bucket of fresh water. With this water output rate, they could finally get rid of the days of collecting rainwater and snow.
Qiao Sheng was happy for a short time, and then he found that the disadvantages were also obvious. He had to have someone to time it. He had to collect fresh water and add seawater at about the same time. To be honest, this job was quite troublesome. If he couldn't keep an eye on it, the fresh water would evaporate again. It was still easier to filter it in the past.
The arrival of summer finally eased the humid living environment. At least the cabin planks were moldy and fungal infections were no longer seen in the world channel.
Of course, Qiao Sheng and his team's charcoal business also came to an end. The planks and charcoal originally stored in the storage cabinet have now changed from damp to dry.
At least the players' survival space is larger. The players selling cooked food in the trading system have formed a scale, and there are also players who specifically place orders for players No. 18 to collect fish.
Li Mu compared the ratio of the trading system, and exchanged a part of the appropriate ratio. If the ratio was not appropriate, he would directly tear up the order, which can be regarded as a real source supplier business.
On the first day of summer, Qiao Sheng and Li Mu did not do any work. They changed into short-sleeved T-shirts in the morning and hurriedly made shorts to change at noon.
It was hot standing on the terrace, and it was stuffy sitting in the cabin. Li Mu made ice cubes and used saltpeter to make a lot of ice.
After placing five ice cubes scattered in the second-floor cabin, the temperature finally dropped. Before the two of them could catch their breath, they suddenly thought of the Chinese medicine planted on the third floor. Would it be a problem in such a hot weather? And the livestock. When they went
up to take a look, they couldn't help but feel lucky to have come up early. The Chinese medicine seedlings had already wilted. Qiao Sheng quickly poured fresh water to save them. Fortunately, he was in time. After a while, the Chinese medicine seedlings finally stood up.
The livestock were in an even worse situation. The fresh leaves that Qiao Sheng had put in their food bowls in the morning had either wilted or dried up, and the water in their drinking bowls had also dried up.
All the ducks in the house were tied up and squeezed into plastic buckets to cool down, while the remaining pigs, sheep, chickens, and rabbits all collapsed on the ground from the heat.
Li Mu added water to their water bowls, then immediately went downstairs to get the ingredients from the storage cabinet, and made two ice cubes, filled them with ice, and placed them near the livestock area. A slight cool breeze wafted through, and after the guys drank the water, they finally felt better.
Li Mu opened the cabin door, and the big wooden fan on the third-tier terrace turned gently because of the wind. Only heat could be felt near it, but with the ice cube in the middle, the animals in the corner were the first to feel the cool breeze.
Qiao Sheng stood by and felt it. The effect of the cool breeze was basically negligible, unless she could lie still like the wild boars in the pigpen. The wind from the wooden fan still had some effect. If she moved a little, she would sweat all over.
So it would be better to make this thing for these guys. They still have to study how to make a cattail leaf fan.
After solving the problem in the livestock area, Li Mu turned his head and looked at the soil in the planting pots that had just been watered with fresh water. There were signs of dryness and cracks again. This problem was embarrassing. You have to keep pouring fresh water into it every time you plant a plant.
Let’s not talk about how expensive fresh water is. Just the fact that this work needs to be supervised by someone is difficult to implement. After all, there are only two of them. If they do it this way, it will delay things a bit.
The two of them stood on the third floor and discussed for a long time. Finally, they decided to try to move the fresh water filter over, and then find a few rubber tubes. These things were already in the containers they collected before, so they didn’t need to be made specially.
Use rubber tubes to connect plastic barrels filled with fresh water. As long as the height of the plastic barrels is higher than the planting pots, this drainage device can be realized.
Qiao Sheng’s method is also simple. They made a bamboo bed and placed the two sets of seawater filter devices on it. Soon, fresh water flowed into the planting pots through the water pipes.
But new problems reappeared. The disadvantage of watering in this way is that the amount cannot be controlled, which will cause waste of fresh water and kill the crops in the planting pots due to excessive watering.
In the end, Li Mu came up with a solution. He first transformed the head of the rubber tube on the planting pot into a sprinkler, and then made a rope switch. The rope went to the second floor, so that they could control it at any time when working on the second floor.
When this semi-automatic sprinkler device was completed, Qiao Sheng just wanted to say that laziness is the driving force of human invention and creation. Li Mu made this device because the two of them were too lazy to climb up and down in the hot summer.
The biggest innovation of this device is not the sprinkler near the planting pot or the sprinkler control switch, but the most amazing thing is that it allowed Li Mu to study how to fully automatically pump seawater into the seawater bucket of the seawater filter.
This equipment is truly semi-automatic. They don't need to control the addition of seawater and fresh water. They only need to pull the sprinkler switch every half an hour.
The effect is quite good. After being busy in the three-story cabin for a long time, the two went downstairs to prepare dinner. As soon as they entered the cabin, their heads were big.
They put five ice cubes in the second deck. At this moment, Jiashazi, Xinxin, Yousu and Ah Dai were guarding an ice cube with its lid opened, licking the ice cubes inside frantically.
Qiao Sheng looked over and saw that the ice in the four ice cubes was very small, and the melted ice water in them had been almost drunk by these guys.
For a moment, she didn't know whether to be afraid that they would get upset or worried that Bingshui would not be able to eat after drinking too much.
Yousu and the other two big ones heard the sound and saw their master coming back. They noticed that their faces were not right. Bingshui didn't dare to grumble anymore, and lightly retreated to the sofa where they were sitting and closed their eyes to take a nap.
Jiashazi and Xinxin were two fools. Seeing Qiao Sheng and his friends were so happy, they even wanted to express themselves. They showed them how to open the heavy lid of the ice cube, lick the ice until it melted, and then drink it.
Finally, they grabbed Qiao Sheng's legs and forced her to go to the place in the middle of the cabin where the fifth ice cube was placed. After opening the lid, they wanted her to crawl down and eat the ice. They even thought that their master was too shy and how could she be embarrassed to lie down and lick it, so they took a few steps, took a run-up and a big jump, just like knocking her down.
Li Mu started to be careful when he saw it retreating. He saw that it was really going to pounce on Qiao Sheng. When it flew into the air, he hit Qiao Sheng with one hand. With her body, it was really hard for a fat boy like the cassock kid to hit her. It was unknown how long she would need to recover.
The cassock kid who pounced into the air did not have any special reaction. He just felt that they did not know how to live. He had clearly told his master the secret of comfort, so why couldn't they follow his teachings.
He opened the lid of the last ice cube and was about to pounce on it when a khaki afterimage appeared beside it. He looked closely and saw that Xin Xin had already lay on the ice and licked it crazily.
In the end, Qiao Sheng took the two of them off the ice cubes, one in each hand, and told Li Mu to refill the five ice cubes with ice, because the cassock cubs had licked them, and the ice cubes needed to be cleaned several times before use.
He threw the animals in his hands to Yousu and threatened them not to move, otherwise no one would have dinner at night. This trick worked every time. Even if the cassock cubs and Xinxin could resist the temptation of delicious food, they could not resist Yousu and Ah Dai who had already recognized the reality.
With these two big brothers leading them, the younger ones really did not do anything special or out of the ordinary.
For dinner, Qiao Shengliang mixed potato shreds, cucumber, radish, wild vegetables, cold rabbit and white duck, and finally took out the elm money dumplings that had been steamed in the ring space before, and the two of them had a simple meal. After
the meal, she cooked a big pot of ginger soup and brown sugar water. The ginger in it was cut into small pieces, and wolfberry was added. It must be drunk in one gulp, and the ginger powder will slide down the throat.
After cooking, she gave two big bowls to each of the four cassock cubs. After eating so much ice, they must prepare for the rainy day and drive away the cold and dampness in advance, otherwise if they get a heat stroke or gastroenteritis, it will be she and Li Mu who will be tormented.
However, despite her strict precautions, the cats still had problems in the middle of the night. First, Xinxin had diarrhea, then groaned uncomfortably, then Yousu and Ah Dai vomited non-stop, and finally, the cassock cub, probably because of its large size, was trying to grab the toilet on the terrace, with a wooden basin on his legs, defecating and vomiting at the same time.
