Chapter 22 Crystal Salt

The original owner, who was helpless and alone, was bullied by these people... The original owner was killed when he was only ten years old.

In the first few days after Mai Dongzi was reborn, before he figured out this matter, he had planned to keep a low profile and stay away from the Xi family according to the wishes of the original owner. When he was able, he would find out who harmed the original owner and avenge him.

But when she carefully thought about the space bracelet, she had a different idea.

The original owner was such a well-behaved and loving girl, could it be that the Xi family had schemed against her in vain.

If she left the Xi family like this, wouldn't that make the Xi family head and his wife and their daughter happy?

Because there is too little information, Mai Dongzi doesn't know why the Xi family's head and wife would exchange their daughter with an illegitimate daughter, but there must be huge hidden interests involved.

If she leaves the Xi family like this, it will be difficult to find out the truth about why the Xi family head and his wife did this.

The crime of being a real or fake daughter will always be pinned on the original owner's father, and the title of the original owner being a fake daughter will always be pinned on her.

The Xi family head and his wife and Erica Xi would stand on the moral high ground and suppress Mai Dongzi all the time.

After thinking it all through, Mai Dongzi decided that she would go back to the Xi family.

She returned to the Xi family as the daughter of Atom Xi, more glorious and talented than Erica, stripped off the false masks of the Xi couple, and washed away the shame of being called a fake daughter.

Mai Dongzi recalled these things because of the space deduction, and became angry again about what happened to the original owner, but her expression did not change, and her hands did not slow down, continuing to cook the food.

In the end, Mai Dongzi cooked a total of five pots of mutant beast meat and wild vegetable soup, and then packed the mutant beast meat and wild vegetable soup into a square ceramic box that was twice as large as an ordinary lunch box and had a lid.

Mai Dongzi fired a total of ten ceramic lunch boxes. After filling them up, she put all the food into the space buckle.

Although she used her mental power to put the ceramic lunch boxes into the space buckle, she reached out and touched the ceramic lunch boxes, so outsiders would only think that she was putting these things into the space backpack.

Although the shelf life of the space container is only one year, it is the lowest-grade space container such as the space backpack. The fresh prey put in it has a shelf life of only a dozen days, so she must dispose of the prey within 10 days.

As we all know, cooked food can be stored longer in a space backpack, usually up to a month.

The adventurer's space backpack has five compartments in total. Mai Dongzi put some of the food in it, and most of it was quietly transferred into the space buckle.

After preparing the food, Maidongzi changed to a clean pottery jar and continued to boil water. The water was only roughly filtered, not finely filtered several times like before.

Mai Dongzi hadn't showered for several days. Because of the cleaning function of her combat suit, her body was relatively clean, but her hair was covered in dust and sweat, and she didn't even want to describe the smell.

In addition, she had no comb to comb her hair, so after getting up in the morning she would comb it with her hands and then tie it up. She didn't know how tangled it was and had to clean it thoroughly.

Mai Dongzi was afraid that the lake water might contain extremely tiny blood-sucking worms or parasites, as well as mutated microorganisms that she was not aware of, so she did not dare to wash directly with the lake water.

Although she is not afraid of boiling water, she used a pot to cook meat before ceramics were invented. She would rather be dirty than use a greasy pot to boil water for bathing or washing her hair.

In addition to the specially useful ceramics, two one-meter-high ceramic jars were filled with boiling water and then all stored in the space bag.

With this water, she doesn't have to worry about running out of water for the next month.

After preparing drinking water, drinking water and food, Maidongzi began to stir the salt.

The water in the oasis lake contains a certain amount of salt, so the boiled water has a light salty taste.

After drinking this lake water, Maidongzi's body will not suffer from hyponatremia due to salt deficiency in the short term, but it is hard to say what will happen over a long period of time, so she must refine some crystal salt for emergency.

Mai Dongzi put the piled wood ashes into the boiling water in the ceramic pot and stirred them. Then she used a rattan net she had woven yesterday to scoop up the coarser wood ashes in the water, and then added new wood ashes to continue cooking.

After repeating this three times, the water in the ceramic vessel became turbid. Ophiopogon japonicus tasted it and found it very salty.

She was afraid that if she added new wood ash, the salt in the water would be absorbed by the wood ash, so she placed two layers of rattan nets on the ceramic colander and poured the wood ash water on top.

The wood ash water seeps from the rattan net into the ceramic below, and the larger wood ash particles remain on the surface of the rattan net.

When the audience saw that Mai Dongzi could come up with the idea of ​​weaving a rattan net without a filter, they were really impressed.

However, some viewers raised questions, asking why she didn't use charcoal filtering.

After filtering it five times in this way, although the water was still a little gray and black, there were no wood ash particles in the water anymore. Mai Dongzi put the water aside.

Then pour new water into the original ceramic jar, and continue to pour dry wood ash in, and repeat the previous operation again.

For a whole hour, Mai Dongzi repeatedly poured wood ash into the water, stirred it, filtered it, poured it again, and filtered it again.

The audience in the live studio, who had a little less patience, could not stand the boredom of doing the same work over and over again.

Maidongzi's movements and expression remained the same, neither hurried nor slow, calm and at ease.

After being slapped in the face by Mai Dongzi several times and accidentally, although the audience didn't understand what she was doing, even if they ran out of patience, no one dared to be the first to laugh at her.

The impatient viewers in the live broadcast room began to swipe their screens, asking each other what Lucy Xi was doing.

But no one gave an answer, so everyone went to the professor at the A녢 Cultural Research Institute놅.

Although the professor was online, he could not give an accurate answer. But the professor was a professor after all, and he guessed that Miss Lucy wanted to extract a substance from the wood ash.

So everyone had to be patient again.

After all the wood ash was dissolved, Mai Dongzi replaced the new rattan net, mixed all the wood ash water together, and then filtered it carefully until there were no more wood ash particles filtered out of the rattan net.

At this time, the wood ash water was still muddy and dark gray. Maidongzi tasted it and was very satisfied with the saltiness of the wood ash water.

Because there was no time to dry the wood ash water naturally, Maidongzi poured the wood ash water directly into two porcelain pots and placed them on a shelf to boil.

After dark, all the wood ash water evaporated, and Maidongzi harvested about 100 grams of black crystal salt.

Although the color and taste are not very good, it is indeed crystal salt. With this salt, she will not have to worry about salt shortage in the next fifty days.
