"But now I've placed a small stone in the middle of the plastic wrap. This way, the originally flat plastic wrap will sink, forming a cone. The plastic wrap has a slope, and the small water droplets clinging to the plastic wrap will slide down along the plastic wrap due to gravity instead of falling directly to the ground. You can observe carefully."
Tu Ling made way, and several orcs squatted on the ground, took a closer look, and shouted, "Really?"
Tu Ling: "These water droplets gather together to form a stream, which flows down from this tip and is collected by the bamboo tube I placed directly below. Since there is no salt in the water vapor, the water in the bamboo tube is not salty either, and it becomes the fresh water you just drank."
"And the salt is still in the seawater. As the water vapor escapes, the salt concentration in the seawater becomes higher and higher. If you just dry the water out, you get salt crystals."
"Well, do you understand?"
Bai Qi was confused from the beginning. He only knew that the white film was called plastic wrap and the collected water was drinkable. Then he knew what the female protagonist said.
The others at least understood a little bit. Ye Li even asked a question: "Fresh water is essential for orcs, and salt crystals are also essential for orcs. Then why does mixing fresh water and salt crystals together make orcs more thirsty, and even die?"
"Uh..." Tu Ling paused. Actually, she knew the principle. It was the water-salt balance regulation from high school biology. But she couldn't explain it clearly now. Even if she did, these people wouldn't understand. "This is not something you can understand at your current level. I'll explain it to you when you're smarter."
Bai Qi didn't understand, but that didn't stop him from worshipping Tu Ling: "Wow, Lady, you really know a lot."
Tu Ling smiled bitterly, it was not that she knew a lot.
Yin Hen was still reviewing the process of producing fresh water and salt crystals in his mind when he suddenly heard someone shouting that the mermaids were coming. He looked towards the seashore and saw the waves surging on the coast, and many mermaids gradually emerged.
"Madam, something is wrong. A lot of mermaids have come." Yinhen reminded.
Tu Ling squinted her eyes and looked into the distance: "Haven't there been so many of them before?"
"Never. Usually only two envoys are sent to a region."
Tu Ling put the empty bamboo tube back into the pit and said, "Let's go and take a look."
A group of orcs had gathered on the shore, all checking to see what was happening. The usually calm, lifeless sea was surging, like boiling water rushing up from below, stirring up huge white waves. In the center of the white waves, a red tip gradually emerged. What looked like coral?
The coral only had its top surface exposed on the sea surface, which gave one an idea of how huge it was. As the coral got closer and closer to the shore, the first to appear were the two mermaid messengers who had come for the exchange last night. They stood on both sides, and then all kinds of mermaids emerged from the sea, dividing into two paths in an orderly manner, forming a wide and neat sea path in the middle. It was obvious at a glance that they were here to welcome some important figure.
As the mermaid sang loudly, the full appearance of the coral was revealed. It was a huge coral that was made into a seat. It should have dense branches, but the bottom was cut off and the base was polished smooth. Last year, it was decorated with a huge shell and countless pearls. A mermaid was sitting on the nude pink shell.
One glance is enough to make people unforgettable. He had his eyes closed, with thick eyelashes, long eyes, a very light-colored mouth with a faint pink sheen, and seaweed-like golden hair that naturally hung down on both sides of his body. On his cheeks were two huge, transparent, but faintly golden ear fins. The pearls wrapped around his head were more than those of the two messengers, but they were rounder and brighter, like stardust scattered on the heads of angels.
The mermaid wore a crystal necklace around her neck and intricate pearl ornaments on her shoulders. Her two-meter-long fish tail, also glowing golden, hung leisurely next to the shell.
Such decoration, appearance and treatment all highlight the noble status of the visitor, oh no, the fish.
But he...is actually a real male mermaid.
The female on the shore frowned, while the male looked longingly.
Tu Ling was also very curious. Could it be that the mermaid tribe was a society where males were superior and females were inferior?
As Tu Ling was looking at him, the mermaid opened his eyes. His pupils were pure gold, not like the earthy gold, but like yellow gems shattered in his eyes, reflecting dazzling starlight, noble and mysterious.
Zi Ye nudged Ye Li and whispered, "He's better looking than you."
Ye Li: "Get out!"
The singing gradually stopped, and everyone came back to their senses from their trance. An orc asked if it was time to switch.
The messenger standing in the front turned around to look at the golden dragon fish. Yes, in Tu Ling's eyes, this beautiful mermaid looked like a golden dragon fish.
The Golden Arowana smiled politely and nodded. The two messengers then turned and swam towards the stone where they usually exchanged supplies. "Come here to exchange!"
The orcs rushed over all at once, leaving only the Tu Ling camp and a few lustful females here.
A 1.8-meter-tall female with long legs boldly proposed: "You are the most beautiful male I have ever seen. Will you join my camp?"
Upon hearing this, the golden arowana burst into laughter. Even this exaggerated movement was absolutely beautiful. Just opening his mouth ruined this beauty. "This prince's charm is truly unmatched. Not only are the females in the sea expressing their love for me, but even those on the shore are attracted to me. Tsk, it's too perfect, and it's a sin."
After saying this, he shook his hair narcissistically.
"Ah? Haha, so you are the prince of the mermaid tribe. No wonder you are so handsome. Would you like to join my camp?" Although the female was speechless about a male being so narcissistic, she once again invited him to join her camp because he was so handsome.
The golden arowana thought for a moment and felt a little embarrassed: "But I can only live in seawater, and every morning I have to wash my face with pearls, and at night I have to sleep in a shell covered with crystals. Moreover, I can't work, can't be exposed to the sun, can't..."
"Stop!" The female laughed awkwardly, "Prince, I have something else to do. I'll be leaving now!"
After she finished speaking, she quickly ran away, and the Golden Arowana was still shouting behind her: "You don't want me to join your team?"
The female seemed to run faster.
"Tsk, this orc on land is trying to get me to marry her with her conditions? I'd rather be single for the rest of my life than get married! Ugh!"
The golden arowana had a look of disgust on its face, but when it saw a few females on the shore, it raised its lips again and said, "Why, you want to marry me too?"
The females saw the scene clearly and knew that they were definitely not going to win over this mermaid, so they simply left without saying anything.
Now there are only two camps left here: the mermaids and the Tu Ling camp.
"Are you the female who can cook barbecue?"
