Chapter 118 Giant Carrot
Steam was coming out from under the ice, and Jiang Si and Qin Shen immediately thought of the source of the hot spring bay.
There should be hot springs nearby that have not yet frozen.
The monkeys would jump near them, probably relying on the heat coming out of the ice for energy.
Jiang Si and Qin Shen continued walking forward. After about ten minutes, some black volcanic rocks suddenly appeared around the white snow.
Jiang Si raised his eyes and saw a natural hot spring of medium size appear in their sight.
The cold air and the hot air collided, and layers of ice fog swirled around, making visibility very low.
But you can vaguely see that this hot spring is quite deep.
Jiang Si put two eggs into the hot spring, and they floated up after a while.
The temperature is around 80 or 90 degrees, no wonder the hot spring is not frozen.
Qin Shen heard some noise and said to Jiang Si, "There's a monkey up ahead, do you want to go check it out?"
Jiang Si nodded, "I want to see what they feed on."
Understanding biological resources is very helpful for their long-term life in extreme cold.
"good."
Qin Shen and Jiang Si continued to move forward. As the number of hot springs around them increased, the exposed land and rocks also increased.
Suddenly, Jiang Si saw a crisp green in the snow in front of him.
Even at minus 40 or 50 degrees Celsius, you can still see green plants in the wild, which is a miracle of survival.
Jiang Si looked surprised. Maybe this could be used for breeding. When they raise chickens and ducks on the boat in the future, they could use it as feed.
Jiang Sigang took a step forward when Qin Shen suddenly grabbed her hand and said, "Be careful."
Jiang Si looked around vigilantly and soon saw clumps of wriggling white cotton balls around him.
They were extremely alert. When Jiang Si looked over, they stood still, pretending to be piles of snow, completely blending in and making it impossible to tell them apart.
Jiang Si pretended not to notice, but they suddenly stood up again and threw stones at them.
Qin Shen suddenly picked up Jiang Si and dodged, shocking Jiang Si who was about to open an umbrella.
The snowmen jumped up, there were probably dozens of them. After exposing their bodies, they bared their teeth and jumped at them, throwing stones at them without any care, trying to drive them away.
Jiang Si picked up the gun and fired into the air.
"Bang--"
At the sound of a gunshot, the snow monkey turned into a bird or beast and dodged in fright.
The surroundings became quiet, but Qin Shen was still holding her, with no intention of letting go.
Jiang Si coughed lightly, struggled to get down, and ran towards the green.
At first glance, I felt that it looked very familiar.
As Jiang Si was pulling at it, he said, "This looks like a radish, but the head seems a little absurdly large. Could it be a mutation?"
As soon as she finished speaking, she tried to pull it up, but couldn't, and fell to the ground. Qin Shen tried to pull her up with one hand, but failed.
The two looked at each other, and Jiang Si produced a shovel from space. The two dug together for a while, and a giant radish with a diameter of about half a meter gradually emerged in their sight.
Jiang Si had never seen such a huge radish in his previous life.
The things that immediately came to mind were dried radish, roast duck with radish, beef brisket stewed with radish, shredded radish in cold salad, and sweet and sour pickled radish...
My God, this one carrot is enough for them to chew for a week!
No wonder these people are so strong and healthy, and no wonder they can't get close to us.
There are only about twenty radishes here. If one is missing, they will lose a lot of food.
Moreover, the monkey group has a hierarchy. The lower the monkey is, the less food it is allocated. It would be strange if it did not fight desperately to survive.
Jiang Si and Qin Shen continued to dig out the radish. It was one meter long and weighed forty or fifty kilograms. It was a white-skinned and red-hearted radish with excellent quality.
Radish is cold-resistant and can be sown all year round when the temperature is suitable. The harvest period is also short. It is a very adaptable vegetable.
Jiang Si also planted various radishes in his space, which were the preferred seeds of the Sun Country. However, they pale in comparison to this giant radish.
Jiang Si covered the radish with a net and prepared to move this radish back for research and planting. The others would be left as food reserves until the snow came.
Suddenly, the sound of splashing water came from the hot spring next to them.
Jiang Si suddenly thought of some fish that could survive in hot springs. Be careful that they might eat people like the gar-crocodiles. Jiang Si pulled Qin Shen carefully into the water.
Qin Shen looked at her and held her hand.
This hot spring was as beautiful as a diamond, with gorgeous ripples and bubbles constantly emerging. Jiang Si looked carefully again and again before he discovered the presence of fish in the water.
There are actually three different kinds of fish, all red, with beautiful fins and tails. The fish look like burning paper, only about the size of two palms, beautiful, and have sharp teeth when they open their mouths.
They are at the top of the food chain in the hot springs, eating two other transparent-looking fish, one slightly larger and one slightly smaller, with a silver line running down their bodies.
Jiang Si stared at the two transparent fish and said, "They look delicious. They should be good fried."
We already have the meat dishes, so we have to prepare some more.
Qin Shen met Jiang Si's eyes and saw through her thoughts. He said, "Do you have a net bag?"
Jiang Si nodded happily, "Yes, yes, I'll try to lure them over with bread."
She found that there were the most snow monkey footprints around the hot spring, and they probably also catch fish to eat.
When the bread crumbs were scattered, the effect was immediate. The three types of fish rushed towards here at different speeds.
Qin Shen caught them all in one net bag.
Jiang Si looked inside and was delighted. It was at least two kilograms.
After frying, it probably weighs less than one pound, and one person can only eat a few chopsticks.
Jiang Si used some bread to lure the fish, and puff, another net bag was filled with fish.
The snow monkeys saw from afar that their radishes were pulled out and their fish were caught, and they shouted anxiously.
When Jiang Si saw that the bucket was full, he stood up and said to the monkey king who was cursing furiously, "I'll take just a little from you. Stop yelling, or I'll take it all."
The Monkey King seemed to have some spiritual power and suddenly lost his temper.
Jiang Si smiled and glanced at the bucket. "That's all. I didn't lie to you. Okay, we should go back."
As soon as the voice fell, Shen Baoying’s anxious shout came from behind: “Sisi, where are you?”
Everyone must have heard the gunshots and ran over to find them out of worry.
Jiang Si immediately replied: "We are here."
After a while, everyone appeared in the sight of Jiang Si and Qin Shen.
Dahei and Xiaohei smelled the scent of snow monkeys in the air and rushed forward. The hidden snow monkeys jumped up in fright and climbed onto a huge dead tree above the hot spring.
From a distance, it looks like a few large cotton balls growing on the tree.
Big Black and Little Black were roaring under the tree, trembling, their dark eyes filled with fear and timidity.
It’s not easy to live to this day.
And they are primates. There is a cute little baby in the arms of a snow monkey.
Shen Baoying called Dahei and Xiaohei back, walked up to Jiang Si and Qin Shen, and saw the radish and immediately exclaimed: "Oh my god, what a big radish!"
