Compared with collecting resin and boiling glue, sealing the pores on the giant earthworm's skin capsule is quite simple.
In order to evenly apply the boiled glue on the giant earthworm's skin, Lin Shuhang made two special brushes.
It is said to be a brush, but it is actually two leaves with moderate hardness and softness.
This kind of leaf is more than half a meter wide and one meter long, and its texture is like plastic.
In order to be sure, Lin Shuhang re-examined the earthworm skin bags before applying glue and found that both earthworm skin bags had leaked some gas unknowingly due to being left for too long.
Looking at the two soft earthworm skin bags, Lin Shuhang frowned. "Damn it, did you leak so much air? Fortunately, I haven't applied the glue yet. I have to deal with it first, otherwise it would be difficult to deal with it after applying the glue.
."
Lin Shuhang decided to add some gas to the two skins.
Inflating earthworm air bladders is a chore. These earthworm skin bladders are not soft balloons. Inflating them requires a lot of effort and tests one's lung capacity.
Lin Shuhang was naturally unwilling to do such a thing, so he said to the Crazy General on the side: "Crazy General, our air bag is deflated, we need to add more gas, otherwise the buoyancy will not be achieved after entering the water. You are big and have good lung capacity.
, I’ll leave the filling of the gas to you, you fill it with gas, I’ll apply the glue, we divide the work and cooperate.”
Not only was Lin Shuhang unwilling to inflate the earthworm skin bag, but even the big crazy general was unwilling to inflate the skin bag. You must know that filling the air bag with your mouth is very labor-intensive. However, as Lin Shuhang's subordinate, the master has spoken, but he can't
reject.
Despite a hundred reluctances, the Crazy General still had to take over this miserable task due to his insufficient level. In a word, he was his subordinate, so he couldn't let his master fill up the gas and apply glue by himself, right? It's both reasonable and reasonable.
It doesn't make sense.
"Roar!" The mad general roared in grievance, reluctantly untied the tree vines on the earthworm's skin bag, and blew air into the anus of the giant earthworm one by one.
While the Crazy General was filling up the earthworm skin bag with air, Lin Shuhang took a homemade brush and applied glue to the earthworm skin bag.
Applying glue does not require any skills or experience. You only need to use a brush dipped in glue to seal the pores.
Thanks to the guidance of professional chemical engineers, the quality of the glue Lin Shuhang cooked this time was still very good. It was neither thin nor thick, and the viscosity was just right. It only needed to be brushed once to seal those pores, which was very effective.
Just like this, the crazy general blew and Lin Shuhang brushed the glue, and in less than half an hour, he had finished processing an earthworm skin bag.
After resting for a while, Lin Shuhang and Crazy General processed another earthworm skin bag using the same method.
Since the boiled glue still has residual heat, it will not dry out in a short period of time. Such a skin bag cannot be put into the water immediately. It must be placed in a cool and ventilated place to dry for a period of time, and it can only be put into the water after the glue is dry. Otherwise, everything will happen.
All the efforts were in vain.
The giant earthworm was huge, so the process of drying in the shade was still very slow. Lin Shuhang and Crazy General had limited time and did not have the patience to wait for the glue to dry naturally. In order to dry the glue on the skin as quickly as possible, Lin Shuhang and Crazy General found two large leaves.
The still-dry earthworm skin bag stirred up the wind.
Although this was very tiring, the effect was still very significant. After a while, the glue on the two skins had completely dried.
After touching it, it was hard. This made Lin Shuhang very happy. He excitedly said to the Crazy General: "It's all done. The glue has dried. We can go into the water. Crazy General, please quickly tie these two skins to the raft. Let's do this."
Just start crossing the water."
"Roar!" The mad general responded, and he picked up the two giant earthworm skin bags that had been treated with glue and came to the raft. Under Lin Shuhang's command, the mad general used tree vines to tie the two giant earthworm skin bags tightly to the raft.
On the raft.
I squatted by the water and observed the skin bags. After looking for a long time, I found no air leakage. This shows that the quality of these gums is quite excellent and almost completely blocked the pores on the earthworm skin bags.
"There is no air leakage. The glue works well. Crazy General, please find a bamboo pole and we can set off."
Lin Shuhang was quite satisfied with the results of this test and was confident that he could rely on this improved raft to cross dangerous water areas.
After everything was ready, Lin Shuhang and Crazy General jumped on the raft and headed towards the Giant Insect Ridge on the other side of the waterlogged area without looking back.
There are giant plants above the head that block the sky and the sun, and the seemingly clear but actually dangerous sulfuric acid rain below. In such an environment, it is easy for people to feel a sense of psychological oppression. After all, these stagnant water are not ordinary stagnant water.
It's sulfuric acid rain that can corrode steel. If you accidentally fall into the water, it will definitely be a regretful thing.
Although he was under a lot of psychological pressure, Lin Shuhang was not worried about the personal safety of himself and the crazy general. He designed this raft himself, and he was very confident in its safety.
The improved raft is equipped with huge earthworm skin bags on both sides. This design is similar to a catamaran, and its stability in the water is still very good. If no major accidents occur during the voyage, such as strong winds and heavy rain,
It is definitely the safest water vehicle.
Due to physical reasons, Lin Shuhang handed over the heavy responsibility of supporting the body to the strong Crazy General.
The crazy general learned things very quickly. He held a bamboo pole dozens of meters long and worked very hard to support the raft.
The raft is not a wooden boat, and the speed of rowing in the water cannot be said to be very fast. It can only reach twenty or thirty kilometers per hour. However, this speed is obviously enough for Lin Shuhang and Crazy General.
Lin Shuhang estimated that if he continued rowing at this speed, he would be able to cross the water area where sulfuric acid rain gathered in about two hours. As long as they crossed the water area, food would be enough for Lin Shuhang and the crazy general.
It's no longer a big problem.
Although the rainwater in the accumulated water area has reached an astonishing depth of 20 meters, because the accumulated water is very clear, you can still clearly see the situation at the bottom of the water from a depth of more than 20 meters.
Looking from the raft to the bottom of the water, the effect is very magical and shocking, because this water area used to be land, and the ground is covered with many strange tropical plants. After these plants are submerged in the water, they look mysterious when viewed from above.
Like the seabed, it gives people a very strong visual impact.
"I didn't expect the rainwater to be so clear and spectacular. It's really spectacular!" Lin Shuhang sat on the raft and looked at the crystal clear water bottom. He couldn't help but marvel. You must know that the water depth here has reached an astonishing 20 meters. But
Even so, Lin Shuhang could not help but be surprised by being able to see the bottom of the water clearly from the raft.
