N-A-A Chapter 125
Chapter 125
It's over, there is also a psychological shadow on Haiyan.
But if you think about it, it makes sense.
Sharks, rays and other fish will use their skin to excrete urine, so their bodies are rich in a lot of ammonia smell, and they are all unpleasant to eat.
The ultimate metabolite of uric acid is purine, the kind of thing that triggers gout, and many seafood are high-purine foods, including shark and ray meat.
Therefore, in theory, there is not much difference between eating the meat of shark rays and drinking urine.
Of course, shark fins have become one of the treasures because they emit less ammonia, and because they are rich in protein, cartilage and sugar, the taste is very different from shark meat.
"For hundreds of millions of years, the seawater of the four oceans has been filtered in countless marine organisms many times, so it is not an exaggeration to say that the ocean is a huge urine basin."
"Stop, don't say any more, can we save up?"
"But Lu Zhe, do you want us all to pee in a basin?"
Lu Zhe shook his head: "I'm afraid I can't, as the only boy on the team, I have to use it to scare intruders, so I am afraid that I will disappoint you if I want to use my urine to make salt."
Jiang Yao said: "Honey, you really think too much, we are not disappointed at all, okay!"
"So that we can hold out for a while, and if we don't find a new camp by then, let's get a little potash and nitrate first, and I'll go to the beach again and get more salt back."
Ning Shu looked at the hard-made ceramic basin and sighed: "It turns out that what we did was a urine basin!"
Tang Xiaoguo was a little worried: "Is this enough to pretend?" "
Where the solar energy shines directly, the evaporation rate will be fast."
"Well..." The
matter of salt can only be discussed to this extent, and then it cannot be idle.
Lu Zhe wants to make some modifications to the cave entrance.
The entrance to the cave is slightly higher than other places, and there is not much rainwater accumulated, so it is relatively dry.
Perhaps due to geological reasons, there are relatively few trees, and there are still some places where sunlight shines down.
It is that a large number of wild grasses grow near the camp that are more than half a meter high, which provides excellent shelter for a large number of insects.
Lu Zhe is ready to weed in the next time, expand the activity space at the mouth of the cave, look at the geological cultivation conditions, and make a firewood house by the way.
The cut weeds can be dried and woven into grass mats, which is practical for sitting and lying.
The firewood room is also very simple, four bamboo bottoms, heightened, used to make a 30 cm high base, a top on it, and palm leaves are done.
It can prevent moderate rain and standing water.
The shade below may attract snakes.
Although snakes can provide protein, Lu Zhe, a cold and crying girl, will also be distressed.
Therefore, it is necessary to stuff the snake-proof weeds underneath.
Jiang Yao stepped on Lu Zhe's shoulder and set up the palm leaf, and said happily: "This firewood room is better than the shelter built before."
"It was almost impossible to make such a firewood room in the early days of survival, but now that you have the tools at hand, it is relatively easy to do."
And at this time, Guo'er was the first to complete the epic task, put on the small skirt and said happily: "I didn't pay attention before, it's not messy at all, people's is still fragrant, it's really a fairy physique!"
Lu Zhe explained: "Normal urine will have a slight aromatic smell, because there are lipids and volatile acids in the urine, and it is not this smell after a period of ammonia volatilization." Sure
enough, after a few minutes, the smell changed.
But fortunately, the smell is not strong and will not affect the normal life of the camp.
The three meals were sago cereal, palm fruit, smoked pork, and each person received less and less salt, dipped in cane sugar to taste.
Lu Zhe brought the dried urine basin to the top, and directly poured it into the steel helmet and steamed it if it was not dried!
This surprised several girls!
"Do you want to eat without this cooking in the future?"
"I'm going to eat salt, do you care about this?"
"It's no problem to wash it!"
"It's just a little hard to get by!"
"Think about it, this is the hat worn by the dead man, and it's not a big deal to fill it with the salt of a few of our fairies!"
"Think about it that way."
AFTER VOLATILIZING THE AMMONIA SMELL, THERE WAS NOT MUCH PUNGENT SMELL, LU ZHE OBTAINED SOME YELLOW CRYSTALS, SCRAPED THEM OFF WITH BAMBOO STRIPS, COLLECTED THEM, AND OBTAINED ABOUT 25G OF YELLOW SALT PARTICLES.
Take a small bamboo cup, add warm water, and then slowly open the salt grains with warm water, and finally filter it with cloth strips, and gradually, urine is left on the cloth strips.
When the clear water below is boiled again, about 20g of white crystals are obtained, which looks no different from table salt from the outside.
This should be the salt that the human body should excrete.
According to this estimate, nearly 50% of the salt eaten is retained.
"This... Can it be eaten at all? "
Give it a try?"
"I can't!"
"I don't have the courage either!"
Lu Zhe sighed, only I came first.
He stretched out his finger, lightly tapped a few grains of salt, and put it in his mouth.
It is only slightly more astringent than ordinary table salt, because there is no separation of glucose, and it has a slight sweetness.
If you don't taste it carefully, you can't taste the difference from ordinary table salt.
"Not bad!"
But a few girls are all abnormal.
Finally, under the leadership of Shen Bing, everyone tasted a small bit.
"It's not as disgusting as you think!"
"Fairies, we are fairies!"
"Do you want to open a salt factory in the future?"
"Forget about this!"
Finally temporarily alleviated the salt crisis!
The temperature on this day is significantly higher than the previous day, which may signal another long dry season.
On this day, Lu Zhe and his partners removed grass from the entrance of the camp, cleared more than 100 square meters of activity space, built a firewood room, and woven a few mats.
About 20g of table salt is also made.
July 12th, the 33rd day of exile on a desert island, sunny!
In his early morning sleep, Lu Zhe dreamed that he was locked in his throat, breathing was extremely difficult, and he was sweating profusely.
Open his eyes and see whose feet are on his neck.
"Oh
, I'm sorry, I got dizzy..." Ning
Shu also woke up: "It's only a few o'clock, why is it so hot in the cave!"
Tang Xiaoguo glanced at his watch and said lazily: "At 6:10..."
Shen Bing said: "It's too hot in the cave, or else, will it not close tomorrow?"
Jiang Yao shook his head: "No, what if the monkey comes in?" I'd rather be hot.
"Everyone get up, quickly wipe their sweat, and collect the salt!"
"Okay, okay!"
"I'm going to the bathroom, who accompanies me..." "
I, me, I..."
Although it is a little strange to wipe the sweat early in the morning, it also makes the body feel cool and refreshed!
Lu Zhe and Shen Bing jumped out of the hole to check the supplies!
"The bamboo dragonfly made by Guo'er was taken away, but the sandbags are still there!"
"Two plantains, one less!"
"Two pieces of pork were taken away, and one piece of bear meat is still there."
Lu Zhe and Shen Bing looked at each other and smiled.
Everything turned out to be as they expected, this monkey really had something to fear!
