Chapter 494 Reduction Reaction
"I'm so envious. I'm so envious."
Looking at Bifang tracking the pheasant in the direction of its escape in the live broadcast room, many fellow travelers shed sad tears.
Ever since Bifang’s wilderness live broadcast mode became popular, those anchors who originally specialized in outdoor activities have had to start adding similar content one after another, whether actively or passively.
Otherwise, simply traveling and walking will not have any competitiveness at all!
I am not thinking of competing with Bifang, but competing with my original peers...
People are eating all kinds of disgusting and bizarre food over there, catching chickens and ducks to make traps, while you are here drinking water, chatting, and looking at the scenery in the distance...
No wonder before the emergence of wilderness survival, the outdoor section was a niche area, plus an outdoor showing-off area.
Li Xiuran is one of them. He has no money to drive a luxury car to pick up girls to attract attention, so he can only change from mountain climbing to mountain climbing adventure, often looking for some "wild caves".
Unfortunately, even if they really changed their style, all of them combined would not be enough for Bifang to defeat with one hand.
They dug out a section of earthworms to eat raw, swallowed the sand with a hideous look on their faces, and Bifang hunted reindeer with a spear, eating the heart raw with blood dripping from it...
They went through great pains to catch up with the domestic chickens that the team had released, and simply grilled some firewood meat. They went into the sea to fight dozens of sharks, towed one on a bamboo raft, and stewed a pot of shark fin soup...
They climbed the thousand-meter-high mountain with sweat all over their heads and cheered loudly. Bifang climbed to the top of Mount Everest without oxygen and planted the national flag, becoming the first person...
They... forget it, I won’t say any more. I’m about to cry.
They are all on the Earth, they are all human beings, they all have two eyes and one nose, but Bifang is a mountain, and it is not Mount Everest, it has to be Mount Olympus.
Yes, the one on Mars.
Looking at the audience shouting 666 in the live broadcast room, Li Xiuran felt indescribably lonely .
Pheasants are classified as hazardous animals, and although it is not considered a crime if the number does not reach a certain level, Li Xiuyan felt very uncomfortable seeing Bifang hunting openly while she would be scolded if she accidentally stepped on a toad.
But there is no way, with the background, the strength and the certificates, it is just so arrogant.
It is said that there was a predecessor before him, whose surname was Lu, who was the first to transform and follow the trend. It seems that he had some entanglement with Bifang. He wanted to get some traffic, but he was criticized so much that he couldn't even get half of his mother together. Not only did his fan base become dwindling, but those who came later also came with a mocking view.
He is a hard-working person and often interacts with other anchors during live broadcasts. Unfortunately, some things he does are not authentic.
It is said that it has changed its name and the guild behind it is about to go bankrupt. How pitiful.
Don't think about these anymore.
Li Xiuran took out a thick notebook, uncapped the pen, and carefully wrote down the five big words "Archer's Paradox", stroke by stroke, as seriously as a kid who had just learned to write in kindergarten.
There is no such thing as a natural wilderness survival expert. Everyone has to follow the learning process.
Still need to learn!
It's not shameful, everyone does this.
…
On the other side, Bifang also successfully found the second pheasant trembling on the road.
His arrows were poisoned.
"Once the milky white juice of the strychnos nux vomica comes into contact with the wounds of humans and animals, it can paralyze the victim's heart, block blood vessels, cause blood coagulation, and lead to death from suffocation."
"If it splashes into the eyes, it will go blind. A few milligrams can kill the frog. Although it is just a graze and will not kill it, it must be uncomfortable. Look, it has been caught up by us."
Seeing Bifang coming, the pheasant wanted to escape, but unfortunately it had been poisoned and its hands and feet were out of control, so it was nailed to the ground by an arrow.
Bifang stuffed the still struggling pheasant into the bag and returned the same way.
As soon as he approached the shelter, Bifang saw a water monitor lizard lying on the wall, seemingly observing something.
But when he turned around and saw Bifang coming back, his body trembled, and he staggered left and right and hid in the cave.
[Ah, always ready to backstab]
[Water Monitor Lizard: That guy hasn't come back for a long time today. I feel like I'm back to normal.]
Bifang didn't have time to pay attention to it. He had very important things to do, and his expression seemed a little solemn.
If this is done too late, the consequences will be disastrous and a lot of effort may be completely wasted.
The venom of the strychnos nux vomica will accelerate the coagulation of blood. A long time has passed since the capture. If the chicken is not bled, it will...
It won’t taste good!
audience:"……"
[When did Fang Shen start liking to joke? 】
[Even when Fang Shen is joking, he is so handsome]
[Ah, he is so humorous, I love him]
[Two more crazy people, get out! ]
Bifang quickly brought a stone slab, put both chickens on it, covered it with leaves, took out a bamboo tube to collect the blood, and pulled out the two arrows.
There was no blood-spurting effect, and the blood had become somewhat stagnant. Bifang quickly cut the throat with a knife and squeezed from top to bottom to squeeze out the blood in the pheasant's body.
The sticky blood dripped down the wall of the bamboo tube.
Bifang shook his head: "It doesn't matter if it's too early or too late. Now I have all the salt. But it can't be wasted. I can make blood clots."
After squeezing out all the blood, Bifang picked up the bamboo tube and looked at it. It was not as much as he had imagined, and there was still some blood left in the body.
"If you've cooked at home, you'll know that if the blood isn't drained cleanly, the meat will be fishy. I've never eaten pheasant before, so I don't know what it tastes like."
Smacking his lips, Bifang put the two chickens into boiling water to rinse them. After scalding for a while, some blood came out and Bifang began to pluck the feathers with his bare hands.
Pheasants look very different their feathers are very beautiful.
Bifang did not waste any of them and collected them all, especially the long feathers on its buttocks. After pulling them out, it stuck them on its head, creating the most classic Indian look.
I want this feather
【Can you give it to me? 】
[Ordinary fans can’t enter the lucky draw session now, woooooooooo]
After dealing with the two, Bifang came to the wall.
There is a piece of dried clay on the wall. It has been completely dried and needs force to be crushed. This was placed here by Bifang yesterday afternoon.
Crush all the clay blocks into powder, and Bifang added some fish bone powder and stone powder to mix them.
Bifang explained as he mixed the ingredients: "Making pottery is different from making a furnace. Pottery is brittle and thin, so we need to add some harder substances to prevent it from breaking due to excessive shrinkage during firing."
"So I added some fish bone powder and stone powder. Pure stone powder is also fine. It can be found everywhere. If conditions permit, you can also add sand, eggshell powder, shell powder, or even pottery powder."
[Another small detail]
【Learning is wasted】
【Chicken Soup】
[Hey, the chicken soup is here. It’s not too salty or bland, and tastes great.]
After mixing, Bifang added an appropriate amount of water and began to knead the clay on the stone slab like dough, and also hit it with a stick.
“The clay must be moist and soft, but not sticky. It must be repeatedly beaten while kneading to avoid bubbles in the clay, otherwise it will expand and crack during firing.”
After the suitable clay is made, Bifang is made entirely by hand-kneading, putting the thumb in and rolling it open bit by bit.
Without pottery, once the production is irregular, the internal stress of the material is likely to directly cause the object to break, and a slight collision may also have serious consequences.
Rolling it out a little bit at a time can ensure a symmetrical shape, but unfortunately it cannot be made too big, as it will be difficult to control.
It was only the size of a kettle, so Bifang stopped and started making the next one.
"I didn't intend to make it too big, as that would be inconvenient. The purpose of making the pot is to improve our lives. We can cut the pheasant into small pieces and stew it little by little like making pot meat. It's just right. We can cook a little for each meal."
[I envy you so much for this little life]
[I envy you. When I traveled to XJ, I ate the stewed pigeon and mutton in a pot. It was so delicious that I drooled.]
[I have always wondered, if Fang Shen had a woman, would he be able to create a civilization in the forest? ]
[Do you need it ? I can sign up, dog head]
[Is this all going to be snatched? 】
[You guys can't reproduce the third generation. According to Lao Fang, this will lead to functional extinction. So I'm signing up too. Take me with you.]
[Oh my goodness, is this a blind date meeting? ]
[You continue to quibble, I am listening]
Five kettle-sized pottery jars were made, and Bifang placed them on a stone slab to dry.
"Don't fire the finished pottery right away. Fire it after it's dried so it will be more durable. Now we have blast furnaces. If we don't have anything, we can just dig a hole in the ground and fire it. This method is still used in many parts of the world today."
"If the temperature of the fire is too low, the pottery may crack, but since there is black charcoal in the blast furnace, we should be able to make good pottery."
"Okay, the morning is almost over, and now it's time to get to the main event, dealing with the iron bacteria."
Bifang rubbed his palms covered with mud, moved a second stone slab, put some charcoal on it, and crushed it into black powder with a stone.
At this moment, a barrage caught the attention of the audience in the live broadcast room.
[Someone is smelting iron next door...]
[Fuck, trying to get some attention?]
[Directly "finding" iron ore in the mountains, and then bringing it to the factory to smelt it yourself... What is this? It doesn't show any ability]
【Ah, that's it.】
[I was born in a mine, but I only have iron bacteria.]
【It's all done as long as Fang Shen is awesome! 】
With the charcoal ash, Bifang came to the bottom of the blast furnace, opened the lid, and saw white burning ash inside. He took out some and put it into a bamboo jar.
The last step is to use iron bacteria.
Although it has not rained in the past few days, the iron bacteria in the pit are still moist. What Bifang wants is not these, but the ones that have been dried in the bamboo basket.
After being exposed to wind and sun for a long time, the originally moist iron bacteria have long turned into yellow rust.
Just like this, three materials, one yellow, one gray, and one black, are the key to preparing iron.
"Wood ash contains sulfur, which can help liquefy iron metal, while charcoal is used to oxidize and reduce iron oxide."
[Wait, iron oxide? Didn't we say before that iron hydroxide is used to smelt iron? ]
[You didn't learn the previous chemistry well, what do you think Fang Shen was doing when he exposed the iron bacteria to the wind and sun? ]
[When ferric hydroxide is exposed to air, its color will change, 2Fe(OH)3==Fe2O3+3H2O, and finally it will become ferric oxide, and the water will evaporate, junior high school chemistry...]
[I forgot about it a long time ago, any opinions? ]
Bifang was very happy to see the comments. Someone still understood a little: "Yes, that's the equation. So what we have now is iron oxide, not iron hydroxide."
"Now, we mix them together in a one-to-one ratio, add some water, and shape them into pancakes!"
