【008】 Under the river
...
Xuanling Continent.
Time passed without realizing it, and it has been a week since the palpitations incident.
A week is not long or short.
In seven days, Chen Li lived a very fulfilling life.
In these days, he has accomplished several major things.
First, after the construction of the safe house, the development of the familiarity and control of the body will be further strengthened.
Third, salt ore was found, and refined salt was distilled and purified, and a large amount of food was stored.
Third, after tasting hundreds of herbs, I got several good herbs, and even found the seasonings he cared about the most.
These major events will have a profound impact on the future.
Especially when tasting hundreds of herbs, although Chen Li is invincible now, he always needs to prevent illness and infection. Several herbs have good anti-inflammatory, bleeding-resisting and anti-virus effects, and may be used one day.
A strong body is his confidence in trying hundreds of herbs.
Although this decision caused him a lot of trouble, the final gain was definitely worth it.
In addition to positive herbs, several negative herbs have negative effects such as paralysis, accelerated bleeding, relaxation of nerves and muscles.
He recorded all the characteristics of all herbs, collected some and planted some in the cultivated farmland.
After adapting these few days, Chen Li has gradually become accustomed to the wilderness life of only himself, and only when the night is late, people will silently miss the convenience of modern society.
The soft bed, smooth WiFi, delicious fried chicken, turbid air, and friends' communication... It seems that these are all gone away from him.
As for the idea of missing relatives and being kind to each other, it is not very strong. After all, it has only been a few days, and people with a slower relationship have no idea...
Unfortunately, Chen Li is such a person.
In a week, he had built a relatively sturdy safe house as if he were to be.
After all, after your proficiency is rapidly increasing and your control is more refined, you don’t have to destroy the safe house that you have finally built as you were worried a few days ago.
Besides, he found that after adding the "wild cement" he collected when he fetched water, the bonding, toughness, hardness and corrosion resistance between the stones seemed to be much stronger than a large stone that was originally simple.
The most intuitive degree of toughness is from the initial level of "not as good as tofu" to the level of "ordinary dry wood".
Use pure brute force to use countless huge power to destroy it.
Of course, if he is determined to destroy it, he can definitely destroy it by hitting a few punches with a few force, but will he be so stupid to hammer it?
It's already great to do this.
Therefore, 'wild cement' is definitely his most important discovery, no doubt, it is more important than refined salt medicinal materials and seasonings.
The built safe house is integrated and appears blue-black. Even if you accidentally use a little more force, it will not be so easy to demolish the safe house.
With Chen Li's current exaggerated work efficiency, it is not a problem to build a safe house. In order not to be inconsistent, but also to facilitate, even the matching beds, tables, chairs, water tanks and other furniture were hand-pulled out.
Chen Li was very satisfied with this achievement. As for the appearance...hehe, it's fine to use it, after all, he is a pragmatist.
He lay quietly on his own construction, and after completion, he occupied an area of nearly 500 square meters on the roof of a safe house, looking at the starry sky heartlessly.
The clear and thorough night sky is like the most beautiful gem, with countless stars dotted on it, the stars shining and beautiful.
A mysterious moon rose quietly until it occupied the C position of the night sky stage and remained motionless, as if it had been nailed to death. Fanxing and Xuanyue formed a beautiful map of stars arching the moon.
Chen Li didn't care much about this most conspicuous protagonist who was also the protagonist who had been observed for four nights. He continued to observe the stars dotted in the night sky, record their locations, and appreciate the beautiful star map composed of several or more stars.
"These stars are so bright, they should be the brightest except the moon. They are connected like a hammer, and the handle of the hammer is also pointing to the north. They should be the 'Bei Dipper' of this world, right?"
"Wow, the stars in the southeast are connected like a cow. If you don't look at them, you will be lifelike!"
"One, two, three, four, five, six... Damn, more than a thousand stars, this one is quite awesome!" Just as he was sighing, Chen Li suddenly realized that the stars that formed the cow's eyes seemed to flash.
Just like the cow is alive, after he notices him, he blinks at him who is judging.
Chen Li's eyes suddenly became erratic, and he didn't seem to be abrupt at all, "What are you going to eat tomorrow? Oh, big fish, big fish are not easy to catch. Forget it, just practice swimming skills."
The heart was pounding vigorously, as if it were normal, but it was two minutes faster than usual. A drop of cold sweat slid from the forehead, the tight muscles and almost invisible hairs standing up on the back of his hands all represented the uneasiness in his heart.
The moment he noticed the starlight flashing, Chen Li was indifferent on the surface and talked to himself easily the next second, but in fact it was the second time he was the most nervous after traveling through time.
The first time I opened my eyes and saw the mysterious black panther that was so close to me, huge and terrifyingly beautiful.
Thanks to his strong body, as well as a weekly adaptation and proficiency period, Chen Li's control over his body is no longer comparable to the first day.
He was able to be sure that his keen eyes would never have low-level mistakes such as blurry eyes or hallucinations.
The flashing of the bull-eyed star brought back his somewhat floating thoughts because of his invincibility for several days.
This also reminded Chen Li that this is the fantasy world he unknown; rather than the slightly familiar blue ball that only exists in ordinary people.
It's night.
Chen Li was uneasy.
It took me ten minutes to sleep.
The next day.
Before dawn, Chen Li had already carried a stone fish tank that was six meters long, five meters wide, five meters high, and half a meter thick, and arrived next to the river fifty kilometers away.
This big jar was a huge rock that Chen Li found in a canyon full of rocks in the east near the mountains three days ago. He took out purely by hand.
There are two large tanks like this in the base camp, all of which are used for water storage. The other small tanks... Well, they are two or three meters long and three meters long and wide, more than one meter high and twenty centimeters thick. He took more than ten tanks.
They are all covered.
There were only five or six stone jars similar to the round clay cylinder style, and Chen Li felt that it was enough, so he didn't continue to dig it out.
No matter how exaggerated the appearance, he thought it was appropriate, so he did so.
It is said that failure is the mother of success. The mothers of these big stone jars have turned into debris and become the ground and walls of Chen Li’s base camp.
The wall is two meters thick, which is only six meters and six, so I ask if you are afraid.
Because of this thickness, Chen Li had to expand the area of the safe house, which was much smaller than the initial design of habitable and utilization space, but he just didn't care.
The powerful body seemed to have no limit. With Chen Li's efforts for several days, it was really gratifying to be a stonemason.
Get back to the point.
Chen Li skillfully placed the large stone jar on a significantly harder stone river beach. After a muffled bang, the bottom of the jar was tightly clamped on the sunken rectangular ground.
"Although the marinated venison and fish at home have to be brought on the road later, the salty taste is still too strong, and it is true that fresh meat is more sensible."
Chen Li didn't take off his clothes, and he plunged into this vast river that was seven or eight kilometers long and had no idea of the boundary. The waves were surging, undercurrents were surging, and the bottomless river was unsightly.
Half a minute later, the river surface, which was originally relatively calm, was like boiling oil and adding water, and bubbles kept popping out, rolling and bursting.
Waves rose up twenty or thirty meters high, and waves rose again and again without resting. Undercurrents under the water surface made people unable to see clearly.
Suddenly, the boiling river water was no longer calm, and the water that was stirred to the yellowish middle of the river showed a bright red. Soon, the red color expanded and the river water began to boil again from the red water body.
The bubbles surging, and the hot water vapor kept evaporating.
Crazy-
The water surface was suddenly violently broken open, and Chen Li broke out of the water in a strange fish-like monster and landed heavily on the shore.
A light golden blood flowed out of the monster's wounds and mouth, turning into soil and melting stone, extremely hot.
