Tricked by a ferocious beast into time-traveling, the story begins with fleeing famine.
Chapter 377 Buying a boat and leaving
As for the wine in the shop, to be honest, it can't be compared with Hou'er wine. It is a muddy wine made from some grains. The alcohol content is not high, which is equivalent to the glutinous rice liqueur of later generations.
At this time, there was no distillation method, so wine could not be purified, so this was the only way it could be done.
It was almost dark when they came out, and now that they were waiting for the results, they were not planning to camp outside. The mystery of the smell of alcohol in the ancient vines had been revealed, so they directly found a deserted place and entered the space.
They have been busy these past few days and have not had a good rest. They plan to have a good rest in the space for a day before going out.
The first thing is to cook a delicious meal. Before, Qingyan was busy refining space, and then she became obsessed with cultivation. When they ate, they always made do with a little bit. Sometimes they didn't want to cook, but they were all done before eating. Ready-made.
In the past two days, I have been busy digging a pond for the monkeys to collect wine and building a wall. This work is actually quite tiring.
So Qingyan prepared to reward herself. First, she and Huang Jin went for a walk in the mountains and shot some pheasants and a bison.
That's right, there are even bison in the space now. These were collected from the mountains they passed before arriving in Yueyang.
Not only cattle, many animals and plants that were not there before have been brought in, so now there are indeed many animals and plants in the space, and there are even monkeys, but they are not like the monkeys outside who can make wine.
I don’t know if it’s because of the different varieties. The monkeys in this space are very lazy. They only come out to find some fruits to eat when they are hungry, and then return after eating. They don’t think about storing fruits at all, let alone putting them away. Made into wine.
Of course, it may also be related to the fact that there are fruits in the space all year round, and they have no shortage of food.
But the monkeys in the valley outside also have fruits from all four seasons to eat, but they don't still know how to store and make wine.
Of course, it may also be related to the fact that people's brewing skills are passed down from their ancestors. After all, not all monkeys can do it.
And those monkeys are indeed perseverant. They carry a bunch of fruits into the cave every day to make wine. For hundreds of years, even if no one goes to get them, they have not broken. It seems that even if they are the same animal, they are different. .
If those monkeys were not unwilling to come in, Qingyan would have wanted them to teach the monkeys in the space. If the monkeys could learn how to make wine, they would still have endless wine to drink after they left.
It's a pity that those monkeys seem to be quite averse to space, so it's hard for them to force it.
However, she also told Jin Yang to let him try to command the monkeys and learn what the monkeys in the valley did every day to see if they could also make wine.
After all, it is the master of this space, and all the animals here will subconsciously surrender to it. If Jin Yang assigns some tasks to them, I believe those monkeys will not dare not do it.
Jin Yang actually asked the monkeys to try making wine as Qingyan said, and the monkeys did it without any reluctance.
It's just that making wine doesn't happen overnight. It takes at least a year and a half to get results. After all, it takes time for the fruits to ferment.
Time in space cannot be accelerated, so this will take time to verify.
Speaking of which, they slaughtered the bison and pheasant, and the pheasant was made into beggar's chicken. This has become their reserved dish. Every time they want to eat well, there must be beggar's chicken.
Qingyan and Huang Jin both like to eat, but Chou Chou Jin Yang and Yuan Bao are not very picky. They like both meat and vegetarian food, as long as they are not completely vegetarian.
In this way, they had stewed beef brisket, roasted beggar's chicken, and fried two vegetarian vegetables for dinner, all freshly picked in the vegetable garden.
I had a wonderful meal. After the meal, I picked out the beef shank and cut out the places suitable for making steak. You can fry a piece of steak at any time when you want to eat it.
Cut the beef shank into large pieces, then set up a large iron pot on the stove in the yard and began to braise the beef.
The marinade they used was what they asked the boss for when they bought braised pork in a city before, but that marinade was definitely not enough to make so much beef.
They added some appropriate seasonings to it, which were all based on the original taste of the marinade. Although it was not necessarily correct and could not keep up with other people's old marinade, they did not put in any strange things randomly, so The taste shouldn't be too bad.
After marinating the beef for an hour and a half, I took it out, soaked it in a little marinade, and added the beef bones and offal to the pot. These couldn't be wasted.
After braised for another hour, the aroma has spread everywhere, attracting four bears and some carnivores. This also shows from the side that the braised meat this time is still very successful.
The four bears have become wise and have been helping them grow food and vegetable gardens. This requirement can still be met, so I gave them a large piece each for them to try.
As for the other carnivores that came over, she did not chase them away, but gave each of them a cow bone.
Their meat-shaving skills are not very good, far inferior to those of other professionals, so there is a lot of meat on the bones. If you like to eat deboned meat, it is even more delicious, so it is still very popular with carnivores, at least tigers and leopards. Both the wolf and the wolf ate deliciously.
Because there are no chili peppers, the braised pork is not spicy at all. The Chou Chou space can keep it fresh, so it is not very salty. There is no big problem in eating these animals. At most, they will lose some fur.
After finishing the meal and braised the meat, another three or four hours had passed. It was already past eight o'clock in the evening when they came in, and now it was almost midnight.
After tidying up the yard, Chou Chou put all the stewed meat and bones into its space, and then went back to their rooms to sleep.
It was already noon when Qingyan woke up the next day. She went to bed late yesterday and didn't feel anything at that time. She couldn't get up when she fell asleep. She was still hungry and woke up at noon, otherwise she could have continued to sleep.
When Qingyan came out of the room after cleaning up, she found that not only was she lying in bed, Chouchou and the others were also in the same situation, and they all started at this time.
They just tasted the braised beef and beef bones yesterday. After all, they had already finished eating at that time, so today they just cut a plate of braised beef and put a pot of beef bones in it, as well as the leftovers from yesterday. The stewed beef brisket was put on the table. I was too lazy to cook, so I just slapped a cucumber and it was done.
After dinner, Qingyan strolled to the Lingquan Pond to meditate. She was busy getting food when she came in yesterday, and then braised the meat. She fell asleep before she could meditate. She made up for the time today.
She didn’t know if it was because she had introduced the Qi into her body, and because she was next to the Lingquan Pool, but she felt refreshed after meditating for two hours, as if she had just had a full-body massage. There is comfort in the bones.
After that, she went to the cave with the hot spring pool to take a hot spring bath, and then left the space with Chou Chou and them.
Next, they will continue to search on the island and visit all the remaining peaks.
Despite its small size, Junshan Island has 72 mountains on it. Although their spiritual consciousness can completely cover Junshan Island and explore it, they still feel that they have not searched carefully unless they go to the mountain in person.
So the next step for them was to search from mountain to mountain, thinking that if there were some barrier formations that their spiritual consciousness could not discover, they might be able to discover them in person.
In this way, they walked about five or six mountains every day, and spent almost ten days exploring all the peaks.
No matter whether it was on the mountain, down the mountain, or inside the mountain, they did not miss it. They directly explored it from the inside out, but no more abnormalities were found. In this case, the entrance to the Dragon Palace may not be on Junshan Island anymore.
Then you have to think about how to find it elsewhere. This is not the only island on Dongting Lake, there are other small islands.
Islands such as Minglangshan Island, Qingshan Island, Chishan Island, Lianhua Ao, Lidaotai, etc. are all on Dongting Lake.
If they search all these small islands one by one, they don't have the patience. If they really can't find it, they will forget it. They will set off to Poyang Lake.
Anyway, it would be fine if she could find the Dragon Palace over there. Qingyan just wanted to see if the Dragon Palace still existed and had no intention of doing anything.
And after all, they were relatives of her parents in their previous lives, so they could be considered related to her. Since they were here, it was always good to go and see them.
Finally, they picked two of the larger islands and went to see them again.
One is Minglangshan Island and the other is Lianhua Ao. They have also inquired about it. If they take a boat from here, there is no boat going directly there, and they have to return to the opposite land.
But they were too lazy to run back and forth, so they simply bought a boat from someone who had a spare wooden boat on the island.
Of course it is not a small boat, it is larger than an ordinary small fish boat, and it is the kind with a cabin. It can accommodate seven or eight people.
Although the lake is not safe and there are frequent storms and waves, they are not ordinary people. Even if they encounter big waves, they can still hide in space.
But even so, they modified it and added two boat-shaped ones on both sides of the hull, just like the two wings of an airplane.
This is to increase the stability of the boat so that the slightest wind or wave will not cause it to sway from side to side. With these two, at least the amplitude of the swaying from side to side will be much smaller, and the sitting position will be more stable.
Then I made a bamboo raft on top. It can be placed on top to make it look flat, and you can put whatever you want.
Of course, they have space, so they can't put things on it, it just looks better this way.
Then the inside of the cabin was renovated, covered with fur, and a small table was fixed in the middle, so that in a relatively stable state, one could sit inside and swim around the lake, eat some delicious food and drink fine wine.
This can also be used in the space in the future. After all, there is a lake in the space and can be placed inside for use in the future.
They also specially made a grooved board on the small table, which can be placed directly on the table so that the teapot and cups will not move or fall easily.
Several days had passed by the time they finished doing this. Originally, they planned to leave Junshan Island directly after they finished doing this. They could just put the boat into the water and leave.
Unexpectedly, we encountered another rain, and it turned into sleet and snow again. It seems that this year's cold wave is really serious.
Although there is no ice on the lake because of the flow, some small puddles on the island are frozen, which means that the temperature at night has dropped to below zero again.
Now that we have entered the middle of the twelfth lunar month, it is normal for the temperature to be a little lower.
The Chinese New Year will be here in more than half a month, and there are a lot fewer people coming to Junshan Island to visit. Now they are all locals, basically all locals.
After Qingyan and the others finished checking the seventy-two mountains, they entered the space inside a mountain and packed up the ship directly in the space.
After buying the boat, they have been in the space, so in the eyes of the locals outside, they, the outsiders, have also left.
The sleet lasted for two days at a time. When the sleet stopped, the wind still hadn't stopped. It was only because of the wind that the rain clouds were blown away.
They had to stay on the island for two more days, and they were ready to leave on the third day. They still didn't alert anyone, because they put the boat directly into the water when it was dark.
A few people were sitting on the boat. It was quite stable because there was no wind. Plus, they had modified it so that it wouldn't sway from side to side at all. It would have some ups and downs at most. After all, it was floating on the water and couldn't stay still.
After that, they headed towards Minglangshan Island, which was in the southeast, just like the direction they were going to go.
As for the power of the boat, of course they did not row it by hand, nor did they use any mechanism or machinery. Instead, they used the principle of a later hand-cranked boat and modified it, and built two waterwheels behind the boat. The same paddle, made of bamboo.
In this way, even if you are sitting in the cabin, you only need to shake the handle with your hand, and the boat will move forward.
There is an operating lever below, which can control the direction of the two oars. If you paddle like an ordinary boat, at least two people are required to row at the stern. This is not needed. One person can sit in the cabin and it is relaxed. many.
The gears and chains used to do this are all forged in space by themselves. As long as there is gold and sunshine, it will be fine as long as there is iron ore.
As for tools, her dad had them in his off-road vehicle, etc., and they were very easy to use.
It takes more than three hundred miles from here to Minglang Mountain, because the boat is purely manual. Although they got a sail, it still needs a favorable wind, so the speed is not very fast.
What's more, they had to go back to the space to eat and sleep, and it took them three and a half days to get there.
The height of Minglang Mountain is similar to that of the mountains on Junshan Island, but the area is larger and the scenery is also very beautiful.
