Chapter 162 The Insane Man
Jiang Si shook his head. "No, we ate it here." Then he said to them, "There should be kelp and seaweed in the sea. The ice has melted, and the waves will probably wash some up soon. If your chicks and ducklings are still alive, you can feed them."
Zhang Aihua's eyes lit up, and Brother Qiu's eyes next to him sparkled even more. He was a very good diver and had even participated in a challenge to catch abalone by diving. It should be no problem for him to go into the water and get some seaweed.
The key is that there is no diving equipment and the weather is too cold.
However, the places where kelp grows also follow certain patterns. As long as they find the right location and get a small boat, they can directly salvage it ashore.
As long as we have seaweed and fish to eat, life can be considered fulfilling.
Hoping that the days ahead would be peaceful, Zhang Aihua thanked Jiang Si and Qin Shen, and immediately started to have someone build a boat.
Jiang Si and Qin Shen were walking back, looking at the mirror-like ice in the distance, and worriedly asked, "If the temperature suddenly rises, will the sea level suddenly rise and trigger a huge tsunami?"
It’s not that she thought too much, but a tsunami did happen in her previous life.
Qin Shen thought for a moment and said, "We have a boat, you, and the vulture."
Jiang Si smiled and said, "Yes, I have me. If one boat is lost, I can still make another one. If the boat is lost, I still have a lifeboat and a lifebuoy. I don't have to worry about anything happening."
Speaking of vultures, I've been so anxious about the bugs these past couple of days that I haven't been able to observe them closely.
When they returned to the icebreaker, they went to the sauna to take a closer look. Through the eggshells, they could already see the embryonic forms of the little vultures inside the four eggs.
Jiang Si estimated, "They should be able to hatch in two or three days, right?"
Qin Shen nodded, "It should be."
"It's said that hatching is a difficult hurdle. I don't know if these four little guys can survive."
Shen Baoying also came to see the vulture eggs. After hearing Jiang Si's words, she laughed and said, "Even if they survive and grow up, we still have to worry about whether they will run away with other vultures."
Jiang Si nodded: "That's true."
The bald eagle has a higher IQ than the moose and has self-awareness, so it is not easy to tame it and bring it home.
But it is not impossible if he was raised since childhood.
After a while, Jiang Linhai found Jiang Si and said, "Sisi, should we build a stone wall and some caves?"
Jiang Si was stunned. "Why do we need to build it?"
Actually, they don’t have a house now, so living on the icebreaker is also pretty good. She is a bit too lazy to bother.
Jiang Linhai analyzed, "This bug eats everything. Maybe it'll evolve into a species that's not afraid of salt. We have to be on guard. The cave is actually pretty good, it's sturdy!"
Jiang Si smiled and said, "Are you too busy to rest?"
Jiang Linhai said, "What do you mean by too busy to rest? Those monkeys are the ones who are idle every day. They only know how to eat and reproduce. They will become obese if they don't exercise. Building a few caves won't do us any harm. We still have explosives and other things. A few explosions will do the job."
Jiang Si shook his head. "Zhang Aihua and the others are also digging a cave. What if we use explosives to blast it and it causes a collapse? Forget it. Let's wait and see. I have a feeling something else will happen."
No one was too lazy to repair it, so Jiang Linhai nodded and said, "Okay then."
Zhang Qingfang asked, "Sisi, the monkey population is breeding quite fast. Should we try to control it?"
Jiang Si looked at Qin Shen, "Will you sterilize them?"
Sterilization should also be considered a surgical procedure.
Jiang Chengwu was very interested in the sterilization surgery and said with a smile, "I've seen people castrate pigs, it should be similar."
Jiang Sile said: "How can sterilization and castration be the same? They are different. Although they are sterilized, it does not affect their functions and they can still be used. Castration means that they can no longer be used."
Shen Baoying smiled and said, "Will this way we won't be hated?"
Jiang Si raised his eyebrows and looked at Qin Shen, "That depends on his craftsmanship."
Qin Shen had never thought that he would have to sterilize a monkey one day. After a flash of hesitation on his face, he nodded and agreed, "It should be possible."
Jiang Si nodded. "Then we can arrange for them to be taken care of, leaving a few of the stronger ones unneutered."
In this way, the reproduction rate of the monkey population can be controlled.
Qin Shen prepared to perform surgery on all the monkeys at once, while Jiang Linhai and Lu Zhifeng brought in a lot of fresh kelp.
Each piece of kelp is more than ten meters long, thick and strong. I don’t know how they can grow so well under the sunlight blocked by the ice.
Shen Baoying laughed and said, "I wonder if moose eat vegetables from the sea?"
Zhang Qingfang said, "If they eat chickens and ducks, they must eat moose too."
"It would also be good to dry it and grind it into feed or boil it into soup for them to eat."
Shen Baoying nodded, picked up the whistle and blew it, and Number One and Number Two led several male monkeys to jump over.
Shen Baoying said to them, "Carry the kelp over there and cut it."
They can understand all the instructions now. Without them, the day's work would be a lot.
Now we take them with us when we feed the moose, collect eggs, clean up manure, weed, clean the cabin, and remove ice.
The male monkeys have more work to do, and the female monkeys also do some simple work. The remaining breastfeeding female monkeys only need to take the baby monkeys to their fixed houses and enjoy the delicious food brought back by their husbands.
The pig's trotter soup with kelp is very delicious. Shen Baoying stewed a big pot for a while so that the monkeys who had worked hard all day could also enjoy it.
Because there are so many pig's trotters in the freezer, there is no need to be afraid of eating them.
They were enjoying their meal so much when a strange smell came into Qin Shen's nose again.
His expression froze, and he put down his chopsticks. Jiang Si immediately noticed something was wrong, and pulled him back to the room and asked, "What's wrong? What's going on?"
Qin Shen said: "Another person was captured."
Since only one person came, Jiang Si didn't think it was that scary.
After all, allowing Zhang Aihua and others to stay means being mentally prepared for more and more people to enter this land in the future.
But to be on the safe side, Jiang Si decided to go and check it out with Qin Shen.
After they had their meal and left the icebreaker, the man had just entered the hot spring area and was discovered by Zhang Aihua and others.
He was clearly a very tall man, wearing airtight clothes, but he looked particularly shrunken. He frequently looked up at the sky, and his every move showed a strange and unconscious look.
Zhang Aihua thought he was just being stimulated, and for a moment he didn't dare to trust anyone. He asked from a distance of dozens of meters: "Brother, do you need help?"
He spoke English and looked like a foreigner.
The man saw them, hesitated for a moment, and finally mustered up the courage to come over.
But at this moment, a vulture in the sky suddenly swooped down towards the man. Zhang Aihua, who had not been attacked by a vulture in these days, was horrified and took out his gun in panic, "bang--"
