There is a Wall Behind the Shadow

Chapter Two Hundred and Eighty Nine

On Wilderness Star, the sweet potato harvest was unexpectedly gratifying. Although the sweet potato starch has not yet been made, two sweet potato slag dishes can already be included in the usual menu.

Outside the Wilderness Star, the audience who bought the new interactive game of Yao's Technology are looking forward to the labor results that the game interface has been redeemed for delivery. The audience who have not purchased the game are also simply for the few people on the Wilderness Star. Happy with winter food.

For most people, the harvest day is a good day.

It's just that Feng Qianqian's life is a little harder, and Yu Nianbing, who is next door, is not too far off.

The sweet potatoes were harvested, and Song Shiyue... was going out again.

Although Song Shiyue has used to go out again and again, and return with loads of loads again and again, repeatedly verifying that she is able to survive on this wild star, but...

Yu Nianbing is always reluctant.

Those sweet potatoes, you want to eat fine grains later, and slowly make sweet potato starch. As long as you use the remaining sweet potato residue to make a dish and eat it, basically it will not be too much waste.

It’s almost the end of October. Seven hundred catties of sweet potatoes, plus six or seven goose eggs every day, together with the things that have been retrieved before, is that the potato field is temporarily unable to collect anything, everyone is tight Some of them should be eaten until the beginning of spring, so that they can spend the next winter.

However, Yu Nianbing also knows that the days are not just spent in winter.

Even though there was more food in the camp, even if she couldn't bear it anymore, she still couldn't stop Song Shiyue from constantly striving for survival.

Yu Nianbing could no longer ignore the gap between her and Song Shiyue, and kept up with him to be a burden that slowed Song Shiyue's pace.

All she can do is to pack the luggage for Song Shiyue, and then work hard to do what she can in the camp, waiting for Song Shiyue to return...

Yu Nianbing can do nothing about the gap in ability, but...she will work hard.

Song Shiyue did not even wait for the sweet potato starch to be dried, and left the camp on the second day after harvesting the sweet potatoes.What Yu Nianbing brought in the bag was the potatoes, goose eggs, and two whole lunch boxes of braised pork and fungus that Yu Nianbing had cooked for her early.There is also a bag containing some raw potatoes, sweet potatoes, and plastic-sealed dried meat and dehydrated vegetables to prevent her from eating the cooked food and not coming back, so she can bake it on the way.

There are more things to prepare than when he went out the previous two times. Song Shiyue guessed that it might be because he stayed outside for too long the time he was digging bamboo shoots.However, these things were prepared according to the rations for about five days, Song Shiyue couldn't help but wonder if this is also Yu Nianbing's kind of...reluctant...

Hey, I can't think about it, how can I get on the road well and spend those few days outside alone.

The contents of the two bags are not heavy to Song Shiyue, but the steps to leave are always heavy and difficult.

Song Shiyue thought of the job she did before the end of the world for no apparent reason.

Programmers, working overtime is a common occurrence. After 1996, it was no longer considered overtime. Everyone became accustomed to it, and it was time to work seriously.

At that time, Song Shiyue was also young, and she still had many dreams in this industry, and many things she wanted to achieve. She didn't feel that working overtime was too hard.

Like Song Shiyue, a young man who is lonely and an old man who has the idea of ​​starting a family and a career, one is still motivated, and the other is in the Buddhist school.But those young people who have just fallen in love and just got married start to sigh as soon as normal off work hours, and can watch the time countless times in an hour, desperately wanting to pull the progress bar of the day and go home quickly...

Song Shiyue focused on his career back then, and couldn't realize the anxiety and depression of those people.Later, the end of the world came, and the daily pursuit was just to survive for seven years.

Who would have thought that after death, there would be such an adventure, and felt the helplessness of having a sweet wife in the family and being forced to go to work.

Well... if you don't make a living at work after you go out, you won't have a wife at home.

In fact, Song Shiyue really didn't have much to dominate the wild star and plunder the wildness of resources.However, the grains in the camp can barely survive the winter, and the ability to resist risks is still too low.

Long winters, low temperatures in spring, extremely hot summers, heavy snow covering the mountains, continuous rainstorms, dry heat and burning mountains, poor crop harvests in the back, successive reductions in production, sudden outbreaks of livestock, and aftershocks destroying existing sustainable development achievements... The bad things, no matter which one may be drawn by them, the risks are beyond the resistance of existing materials.

At least, they still need half of the existing supplies, or even... the same amount.

But it doesn't have to correspond to all the existing materials, as long as it is edible food.

I hope to achieve this goal before the beginning of winter, and then we can stay together warmly in the camp for the winter.In the coming year, no matter how hard you work, the sustainable development of the staple food, vegetables, and livestock on the campsite will be on the right track, and then to build a backup camp nearby, you will almost settle down on this wilderness star, and you don’t need to travel far away. , Can be with everyone at ease, grow and raise chickens, ducks and geese, waiting for rescue.

Song Shiyue thought a lot in her heart, but in order to avoid adding unnecessary pressure to other people, she just thought about it, and then worked silently.

Song Shiyue continued to explore a lot of nearby places during this period. This time she was going to go further to see if she could cross the boundary and find something new.

Previously, Yu Nianbing used the pen and paper that Song Shiyue brought back from the castle to draw her a lot of surface patterns of common edible plants.Before Song Shiyue put the drawings in her bag, she took some time to memorize the drawings, so that she wouldn't have to compare the drawings all the time and delay her journey.

But unfortunately, without Yu Nianbing, Song Shiyue went out twice, only to get some bamboo shoots back.

This time when he went out, Song Shiyue's journey was very fast at the beginning because he was going to a farther place. When he went out early on the first day, his journey slowed down until sunset.In just a day's work, she has almost traveled the farthest realm she has ever been in this direction.

It's just that the direction she chose was rather general. Song Shiyue walked two days later, except for a pheasant who was frightened and killed in a tree and a nest of three mountain eggs nearby.

On the night of the third day, Song Shiyue hesitated looking at the dead pheasant and the three mountain eggs next to her.

Except for this little thing, I found some clams in the stream where I was resting tonight.These things take time and effort to the touch, and the meat is only a little bit. It's okay to try something fresh. It's okay to eat something serious. I'm afraid it won't be enough for everyone to eat a whole morning.

The income from this trip was too small.

But along the way, Song Shiyue basically didn't stop much, and walked as fast as possible for three days.Just because she decided to go back tomorrow morning, it would take another two or three days to go back.This is still an estimate based on the original road going straight back, not taking a detour, and reducing the rest time in the evening.

After leaving Yu Nianbing for five or six days, Song Shiyue was really...not very satisfied.

But if you go further, the dead pheasant may not be able to let it go...

Song Shiyue hesitated and hesitated, and finally plucked the pheasant, washed it and heated it to make a roast chicken, roasted it as much as possible, and then mixed the unbearable pieces of chicken into two. A broken chicken foot, attached to the chicken head, chicken neck, and a handful of clams from the stream while washing the chicken, threw them into the stainless steel lunch box, put them on the fire and cooked them.

The roasted chicken was cooked and eaten again, but the taste was worse.However, after roasting, it can last longer, Song Shiyue thought, go forward another day tomorrow, and get nothing, turn back that night, come here to catch some clams, and go back.This chicken, roasted once every night, can also persist until returning to the camp.If it's too dry, then throw it into the pot and boil it for a long time. Naturally, the flesh will become soft and rotten.

Thinking of her heart, Song Shiyue turned the roast chicken while stirring the stew in the stainless steel lunch box.

When the chicken soup was ready, Song Shiyue touched a small sealed bag from the bag.

In the transparent airtight bag, the white particles were a small handful of salt that Yu Nianbing had wrapped for her, and reserved for her to use when she ate the prepared cooked food, roasted those potatoes and made vegetable soup.

However, the sealed bag was rubbed twice in Song Shiyue's hand, and she stuffed it back again.

The salt hidden in the belt has been eaten long ago.At this time, the camps used oyster sauce soy sauce and other seasoning sauces for cooking. The two packets of salt brought back from the old castle were unwilling to continue to be used by Yu Nianbing, but when she came out, Yu Nianbing would pack some so that It’s easier to bring it with you than to pack some sauce.

In other respects, Song Shiyue can still work hard, but this salt really doesn't know how to get it.

At the beginning of the end of the world, some salt could always be found in supermarkets, small shops, and even no one's homes full of zombies and mutant animals and plants.Later, the "Shi Jing" was widely spread, and everyone began to purposefully search for the salty mutant animals and plants recorded in the "Shi Jing", and then studied the salt in the research institutes in major safe places. alternatives.Although the bright red color of the red salt is really oozing, many people call it blood salt, but it tastes salty, without the strange smell of mutant animals and plants.A batch of mutated plants with salty taste were transplanted in the safe zone. After people with wood-type supernatural powers gave birth, the price of red salt has also stabilized. At least Song Shiyue has not fallen into a mouthful of red salt. Point.

Everything is normal now, Song Shiyue hasn't recruited.Yu Nianbing said that he had seen information about three kinds of plants, but two of them had never seen the real thing. I don't know if it is true.

One is S. sylvestris. The leaves are said to be a bit salty. The fruit produced is called gallnut. According to the data, it is sour and salty. It is almost ripe now.

One is Suaeda, which is a kind of plant that likes to grow in saline-alkali soil and contains a lot of salt.

The last type is ice grass, the only salt-containing plant that Song Shiyue and Yu Nianbing have seen, it contains natural plant salt, or low sodium salt.

Although the salt in saline plants is always limited, it is better than sitting in the air.Anything, as long as it can reach a certain amount, the quantitative change will cause qualitative change, sooner or later.

Yu Nianbing drew pictures of the three plants for Song Shiyue, but unfortunately... Song Shiyue didn't see any of them.

In the end, Song Shiyue was not willing to use the small packet of salt that Nianbing brought her, she just made do with a mess of stew in the stainless steel lunch box.

Hope... tomorrow will be better.

Song Shiyue thought so before going to bed.
