Chapter 53
The bat cave was cold, damp, and smelled bad. When Evans stepped on it, the ground was so soft that his shoes immediately sank in.
Song Juyao: "Come out, it's full of shit."
Hundreds of bats sleep hanging upside down in the cave. They only turn upside down when excreting, and then hang upside down again, so the ground is covered with their excrement.
Evans immediately retracted his feet as if he had stepped on a cockroach, and kicked and kicked on the ground with all his strength, his expression twisted and filled with disgust.
Song Juyao was a little helpless. In order to alleviate Evans's discomfort, he said: "The processed bat feces is a very precious traditional Chinese medicine called luminous sand, which can be used to treat malaria, night blindness, cataracts, corneal damage, etc. Now it is also ours
A very important treasure. When bat guano ferments in their nests, it will form natural nitric acid. The excrement in it can extract more nitric acid than our nitrate soil."
What is the main function of nitric acid?
——"To kill that bear, we need powerful weapons. We can't make guns, but we can make another thing." Last night, Song Juyao told her friends about her plan.
"What?" A group of people couldn't help but put their heads together, as if they were making some secret plan.
"Man's greatest invention - gunpowder."
"Gunpowder?!" Li Wenling and the others were shocked, "You? Gunpowder?? Wait, gunpowder???"
The audience in the live broadcast room was also dumbfounded. Whether it was in the real world or the virtual world.???Is this a bit too hardcore? They thought you were going to dig a trap or something, but you actually wanted to create one
gunpowder??
Song Juyao didn't seem to understand their shock, and explained: "If you want to create an explosion, it is very simple. You can make it with sugar, toilet detergent, dust or glass bottles, but we need something more powerful. In this villa
There are too few things, so we can only obtain things from nature and make gunpowder..."
"No, can we make gunpowder??" Li Wenling asked. As an artist, she never imagined that one day she would make such a lethal weapon. It was a bit magical.
Song Juyao: "Yes, as long as you can get nitric acid, making gunpowder is very simple. Nature has given us many gifts. In fact, it has already given us the solutions to all difficulties. Shells on the beach, nitrate in the forest,
The bat guano in the bat cave, the ashes of burned vegetation, etc. are all things that can obtain nitric acid. There is even sulfur on the southeast coast. You see, it has all been given to us."
"But we need a lot, and the bear may not give us much time to make gunpowder, so we will have to act separately tomorrow."
"Sister Ling, you and your brother-in-law went to the beach to collect shells, and you can come back early to take care of Meng Cong; Listan, the southeast coast is a volcanic plain, where you can find sulfur, but it's a bit far, can you please make a trip? Evan and I
Si and Dada went to the forest to dig saltpeter and look for bat caves."
Song Juyao assigned tasks in an orderly manner, with a calm and gentle tone, which made people feel convinced from the bottom of their hearts, and people couldn't help but feel a sense of expectation and hope, looking forward to her leading them out of the shadows.
They had no objection. Song Juyao's allocation was very reasonable. Li Wenling and his wife needed to come back to take care of Meng Cong. Listan had the best physical strength among them all and could go to the farther southeast coast. Song Juyao and the others had more things to do.
We have to extract sugar from the wine when we get back, and the little sugar in the villa kitchen is simply not enough.
Fortunately there is a small wine cellar in this villa.
The next day, they started their part of the work according to Song Juyao's plan.
When Song Juyao and the others were shoveling shit in the Bat Cave, Survival Island Paradise was towards the southeast coast.
Following Song Juyao's instructions, Listan took Addison all the way to the southeast, and finally led Addison to the volcanic plain area.
The air became boiling hot, the smell of sulfur dioxide permeated the air, white smoke came out of the gaps in the black rock formations, and occasionally red magma could be seen from the gaps.
Tie up the simple gas masks that Song Juyao made for them with charcoal last night to prevent them from being poisoned by the high concentration of sulfur dioxide in the air. The father and son carefully walked through the volcanic plains and found the hills. Finally, there were a small number of plants.
, and found a small bubbling hot spring in the mountains.
"Haha!" Listan showed a victorious expression. He was worried that he would not be able to complete the task given by Song Juyao. Along the way, he was also worried that he was going in the wrong direction, but it seems that he is not. He wiped his tough guy face
His face was soaked with sweat, and his bulging muscles were soaked with sweat.
Addison also raised his sleeves to wipe the sweat from his thin face. This trip was the most exercise he had done in the past two months.
The two father and son drank some water to replenish their fluids, rested on the spot for a while, put down the backpacks on their backs, knelt down, took out a small hoe, and started digging for sulfur.
[There really is a volcanic plain! How did Song Juyao discover it! 】
[Yesterday, when Song Juyao asked Listan and Addison to come here to get sulfur, I was still full of questions. How did she know that there was a volcano in this direction??]
[Is it because her mini detector detected sulfur dioxide in the air? 】
[Just based on the sulfur dioxide content in the air, you can't know that there is a volcano ahead. The volcanic plain is quite far from the Glass Villa stronghold. Listan and the others trekked all morning to get there. The sulfur dioxide drifted there, and the content is very small.]
【So curious】
It's easy to know the location of the beach through rivers and mangroves, but how did she know there were volcanoes in places she hadn't been to? They had been watching the live broadcast to confirm that Song Juyao and Evans had not been to the southeast coast.
Fortunately, they are not the only ones curious.
Li Dada was also curious and dug up saltpeter and bat guano. The three of them walked back to the stronghold, and she asked.
"Will there be a volcano on the island?"
"Yes. Haven't you all seen it?" Song Juyao was walking ahead, using branches to sweep the road ahead to prevent snakes from hiding under the fallen leaves.
Li Dada:???You are talking nonsense, I didn’t see it.
Song Juyao was stunned for a moment, and then explained: "When you come here by helicopter, can't you see the entire island? The southeastern coast is almost barren, and a lot of white color keeps popping up where the sea and the coast intersect.
Smoke is the hydrochloric acid cloud produced by magma flowing into the sea and coming into contact with sea water. The hydrochloric acid cloud causes the rain falling in that area to be acid rain, so it is difficult for plants to grow."
The live broadcast started when they were still on the helicopter. Everyone, including viewers in the virtual world and the real world, could see the shape of the entire island from a bird's-eye view, and naturally saw it emerging in the direction Song Juyao said.
There was white smoke, but almost no one thought about what it was, or simply didn't notice it.
[Damn...Is this the difference between geniuses who can enter Horitz University and mortals like us??]
[So from the very beginning, she has already mastered the structure of this island]
【I knelt down】
[She was stunned just now, as if a genius was asked a simple question like how much is one plus one? She was surprised why someone didn't even know this. I felt like I was hit by an arrow in the knee qaq]
【Is this the world of the strong?】
And on the other side, on the beach.
Li Wenling, his wife and Pan Yue also picked up a lot of shells. Song Juyao said that the more the better, so everyone picked up a basket and it was not enough. They also carried a bag with their clothes and stopped for a while on the way back.
,Sweating.
They were also worried about whether they would suddenly encounter a bear, but on the one hand they trusted Song Juyao. She said that she would not encounter a bear if she said she would not encounter a bear. On the other hand, they thought of Meng Cong who was still in bed in the villa and how strongly she protected her children.
Determination gave them the courage to step out of that fragile protective zone and into the outside world.
Song Juyao and his team were carrying out their work in an orderly manner.
But inside the Glass Villa stronghold, it was chaos.
Chen Ruosheng had an arm torn off and his shoulder bones were shattered. However, he was not in shock due to pain. He was still awake and being tortured. He screamed repeatedly and almost rolled on the ground. Blood poured out from the broken arm.
, and soon the entire hall looked covered in his blood.
"Ah ah ah ah ah!!"
"Ah ah ah what should I do? What should I do?" The others were also scared to death. There was no doctor here, and it was the first time for everyone to see such a tragic situation. Moreover, there was also the incident of Chang Youqing being carried away by a bear.
Everyone's mind is blank and they don't know what to do.
Only Wen Yingting was a little calmer.
"Quickly, stop the bleeding first and use something to stop it..." But Wen Yingting's calmness has its limits. His face is also white and his hands are still shaking slightly. Looking at the pile of medicines in the first aid kit,
I have no idea what to use for Chen Ruo.
Wen Zhulian was scared to death, and looked at each other with Wei Yan in fear. Although they were real NPCs, they would just return to the real world after death, but this way of death was too terrifying! This Fanxing Group is really so evil.
!
Chen Ruo yelled in pain: "Ah ah ah, find Song Ju Yao, hurry up and find Song Ju Yao to save me, ah ah ah, Song Ju Yao..."
"Yes! Find Song Juyao!"
"The problem is where to find her, she left early in the morning!"
"Ah ah ah ah. If I had known this, I should have believed her. The bear was really brought here by us!" Someone collapsed in fear, holding his head and saying in pain.
"What difference does it make whether you believe it or not? That bear will appear! If Song Juyao is here today, the situation will not change!"
"We clearly saw the river and the traces they left behind when they built rafts. We should imitate how they crossed the river..."
"Why didn't Song Juyao leave us a note? She had already said that we would not bring the bear..."
The intense fear caused them to begin to collapse and look for outlets to vent, blame each other, and blame others for their mistakes.
[I’m really convinced, these people are seeking their own death, and they blame Song Juyao for not leaving a note]
[It’s so tragic. It’s true that Song Juyao, after thinking so much, missed out on the fact that they might attract the bear. Otherwise, leaving a note, there would be nothing like today.]
[Is Song Juyao obligated to leave a note for them? It seems that they are indeed harming people. They did not come for the stronghold in the first place, but for the protection of Song Juyao, a wilderness survival expert.
Come here, so Song Juyao and the others are really the victims and were implicated by them]
[Idiot, if you want to be protected by others and have such an attitude, you deserve to be fed to bears]
"This can't continue like this, your prestige..." Wei Yan said in Wen Zhulian's ear. They were all calling Song Juyao. It was obvious that after this incident, Song Juyao's prestige would be greatly improved among them, and
Wenzhu Lian naturally had no choice but to descend.
Wen Zhulian suddenly felt a strong sense of crisis in her heart when she heard this. She stood up immediately.
"I, I will go find Ju Yao, Chen Ruo, everyone, please wait for me!"
Anyway, she won't really die, and the bear just took Chang Youqing away and was scared away by Wen Yingting, so it shouldn't come out to look for food so soon.
Sure enough, as soon as Wen Zhulian spoke out, everyone looked at her with shocked and moved eyes. Even Chen Ruo, who was about to go into shock from the pain, looked at her in surprise.
"Zhuzhu!" Wen Guohua immediately shouted in shock. She didn't know where the bear was hiding. She wanted to go out to find Song Juyao!
"Zhuzhu, what are you talking about?" Wen Yingting also said: "Do you know where to find Song Juyao?!"
"I don't know, but I can go find them. I know Sister Ling and the others are at the beach. I can ask them. I can't just watch Chen Ruo suffer so much and do nothing!" Wen Zhulian said firmly. She got up and ran out.
.
Wen Yingting couldn't stop him in time, so he could only quickly grab the fire extinguisher and rush out to follow.
"You can't let Zhuzhu act alone, I will come with you!"
"I'm coming too." Two of Chen Ruo's bandmates followed.
[Manju is good at pitying people]
[I don’t know why, but I always feel like there’s something weird about it. Is it a bit like the Virgin??]
[With a rush of blood, I ran out with empty hands... Are you brave but not wise??]
[Are you sick? Is it wrong for people to be kind? Zhuzhu is a very kind person in the first place. Isn’t it better to take action than not to save her? 】
[Oh, Zhuzhu is so kind, please take care of yourself more]
Not long after Wenzhu Lian ran out, she met three people who had returned from collecting shells.
Although Li Wenling hated the Wen family now, after hearing that the bear really appeared and that someone was injured, he didn't have time to worry about it. He pointed in the general direction and watched the three people run in.
"She does have some conscience." Li Wenling said, then he was stunned and frowned.
We can't say that the Wen family has no conscience, but if we think about it carefully, their conscience seems to be of no use. They are either killing people or trying to make up for it, but the damage has been done. Those people in the villa are all on Wen Zhulian's side. If Wen Zhulian yesterday
If you choose to believe Song Juyao, maybe this will not happen today.
Wen Zhulian and others were lucky enough to not encounter bears along the way, and successfully found Song Juyao.
Song Juyao discovered an avocado tree, which was covered with green and nutritious avocados. How could he let go of such a good thing while surviving in the wild? You must know that there are no such things in the refrigerator of the villa, and there are no people in the villa.
There are too many, and the food in the refrigerator is almost gone.
Obviously, Fanxing Group has no intention of letting them stay in the stronghold.
So when they came, Song Juyao had just made a simple avocado picking tool. He put a pocket on a long branch to pick up the avocados on the high tree, and then he turned around and the avocados were picked.
"Juyao!" Wen Zhulian ran over, grabbed Song Juyao's hand and pulled her to run back. Song Juyao almost fell, and the avocado she had just picked was pulled by her and fell to the ground.
"What are you doing?" Evans pulled Wen Zhulian away.
Wen Zhulian gasped and said: "Ju Yao, go back quickly, there is no time, something happened, the bear really appeared, it took away senior Chang Youqing, Chen Ruo had an arm torn off, we didn't know
What should I do? Go back and save him quickly..."
Song Juyao frowned slightly, "When did this happen?"
Wen Yingting looked at his watch: "About two hours ago."
"Two hours ago?" Song Juyao shook his head, squatted down and picked up the avocado: "If it happened two hours ago, there's no need to worry."
"What?" Wen Zhulian was happy in her heart, but her face was very anxious: "Juyao, what do you mean?"
"It happened two hours ago, which means that Chen Ruo can only have two results now. One is that he has lost too much blood and died, and the other is that he has successfully stopped the bleeding and survived. There is no other possibility. No matter which result it is, I hurried back
It doesn’t make any sense anymore.”
"Song Juyao!" Wen Zhulian seemed to have heard something incredible, "How can you be so cold-blooded!? One person was eaten and the other was seriously injured. How can you analyze it so calmly? How can you be so sure?
What if? You can’t be so rash just for the sake of one ten thousandth, right? Are these... these fruits and soil more important than life?!"
"Yes, how could you do this?" The other two people immediately shouted dissatisfied.
As soon as the contradiction emerged, different voices appeared in the live broadcast room barrage in both the virtual world and the real world, and quarrels broke out. Some people felt that Wen Zhulian was right, and Song Juyao's performance was indeed too calm and cold-blooded.
Some people think that Song Juyao is not wrong at all. She is not a surgeon, so what is the use of rushing back? And if you are trying to survive in such a desperate situation, if you don't calm down, will you drag your family and your family to death together?
[The person who spoke to Wenzhu Lian had better think carefully about who harmed whom]
[That’s right, didn’t Song Juyao say before that he should think in the worst direction? They don’t believe it themselves, and now they are reaping the consequences]
[They are really good at moral kidnapping, Wenzhu and her supporters should not be too disgusted]
[What on earth did Zhuzhu say wrong? What’s wrong with giving up a few fruits and going back quickly just to be safe? Just for a few avocados? ]
As if Wen Zhulian couldn't stand Song Juyao's cold-bloodedness, she turned around and ran away crying. The other two people immediately glared at Song Juyao, said, "We really didn't misjudge you," and followed.
Wen Yingting gave Song Juyao a complicated look, then turned around quickly and followed him.
"Wen Yingting." Song Juyao suddenly called him.
Wen Yingting's heart skipped a beat and he looked at Song Juyao.
"Ordinary bears will run away when they hear noises, but this bear likes to eat people. People are prey in its eyes, so making noise will attract its attention. You should act quietly."
