Chapter 22 Capture mutant leech cubs

   Strength increased by 10%.

   What black technology is this again.

   But then again, is this stuff a sugar or a stimulant?

  Chu Guang is not clear about its ingredients, and there is no production date and ingredient list on the outer packaging.

   "The duration is actually 10 hours."

  10% buff effect looks pretty good, even 10% power at the critical moment is enough to turn the battle situation around.

   It’s just eating lollipops when you’re in battle…

   It doesn't quite match his image as a tough guy Wu Y Zu.

   And when it will take effect is also unknown.

  After much deliberation, Chu Guang decided to put it away first.

   It is not a bad thing to have one more hole card in hand.

  …

  The next morning.

   Players are online as scheduled.

  Although the real work during the day is exhausting, but after going online, they are all tired and full of energy.

  Old White's cement kiln has completely dried out.

He and Feng Feng went to the construction site on the map, and brought back dozens of kilograms of limestone with a cart, then went to the river to get a few large buckets of clay and sand, and started the first portland cement production with a grunt. Trial firing.

  In fact, the formula of ordinary Portland cement can be found publicly on the Internet.

   Simply put, it is crushed limestone and mixed with clay and iron filings in a specific proportion, and then heated to 1450 degrees Celsius in a special kiln for calcination.

  Cement clinker prepared by this method only needs to add sand and water to form cement mortar that can be used in construction.

   With the help of some professional websites, you can even find out the specific material ratio of different cements according to the construction requirements.

  As long as you do your homework before playing the game, the difficulty is much easier than traveling to ancient times and starting from scratch.

  Considering that it was his first time to make this thing, Lao Bai chose the simplest formula. The material requirements for this thing are not too strict, and it can barely be completed with the current conditions of the shelter outpost.

Relying on his "natural power", he picked up the hammer and smashed the stones picked up on the construction site into smaller pieces, and then mixed them with clay and iron filings restored with charcoal, and sent them into the newly completed kiln. middle.

   Charcoal lit.

  The blue smoke slowly.

Fang Chang enthusiastically put his hands on the side, rubbing the branches tied to the mud tray—this is a simple blower, made up of water pipes, bark, and cotton threads, which can send a large amount of air into the kiln to let the charcoal inside burn. fiercer.

   "How do we determine the temperature in the kiln?"

"have no idea."

"have no idea???"

   "Otherwise? Do you have an industrial thermometer? In short, don't talk nonsense, rub the blower with more force and push it in, and you're done! Hey... just get a generator somewhere."

   "..."

  Old Bai sighed while rubbing his chin, Fang Chang was a little speechless beside him.

This guy.

  Since becoming a "construction captain", I have become more and more like a contractor.

  While rubbing the branches, he deserted, thinking in his heart, he didn't know where the two animals, Fengfeng and Yeshi, went...

  In fact, not only the two of them didn't know, but Chu Guang, the manager, didn't know either.

  Although he can confirm whether the player is online or offline through the system, as well as the approximate location and distance, he cannot fully grasp the player's specific coordinates.

   At least not yet.

   But when Chu Guang was thinking about what the two players were doing, he saw the two players walking towards him with buckets.

   "Where have you been?"

  Facing the manager's inquiry, Feng Feng answered truthfully.

   "Near the mutated leech nest."

   Chu Guang frowned.

   "Didn't I say not to go there?"

   "We didn't go in, we just set up a trap near the nest...Look, this is the cub of a mutated leech."

   Before Kuangfeng could speak, Ye Shi who was on the side saw the manager's displeased expression, fearing that he would lose his favor, he quickly put the plastic bucket in his hand on the ground and explained.

  Chu Guang glanced into the barrel and found that there were some glass bottles inside, and the bottles were full of palm-sized larvae.

   Their postures are distorted, their deformed mouthparts are expanding and contracting, and they are intertwined with their companions, just like the tentacles in the book.

   "Interesting...how did you do it?"

  When he was on Beit Street, he had never heard of anyone grabbing this thing.

  Although mutated worms are rich in protein, they also have a relatively high content of parasites. Those things cannot be killed by throwing them in a pot and cooking them for a while.

  In addition, this thing has a special living environment, rarely acts alone, and its combat effectiveness is difficult to evaluate. Few survivors are interested in it.

   "Blood! We use the blood of animals to lure them into glass bottles with bait. Large leeches can't get in, and small leeches can't get out if squeezed in!"

  Ye Shi spoke excitedly, and Kuang Feng added a few sentences beside him.

"These mutated leeches should be foraging at night, and return to their nests during the day. Except for some bottles that were crushed, these little guys are still in the bottles. I was just planning to try it out, but I didn't expect it to be surprisingly effective. good."

  Chu Guang touched his chin and nodded.

   "I see... that's a really good idea."

   No wonder Kuangfeng asked himself for some prey meat yesterday. It turned out that he planned to use it as bait to catch the cubs of mutant leeches?

   Just…

   "...What are you going to do with this thing?"

  Chu Guang looked at the wind and continued to ask.

   "I don't know about leeches, but mutated leeches are definitely not edible."

   "I didn't plan to study how to eat it, I planned to use it to fish."

   "Fishing?"

   "Well," Fengfeng nodded, with a slightly excited expression, "When I was exploring the shoreline of the lake, I found some **** birds fishing on the lake! Since there are fish in the lake, we can definitely get food by fishing!"

   What a great idea!

   After listening to Kuangfeng's words, Chu Guang's eyes lit up.

  Actually, it’s not that he hasn’t tried fishing before. After all, compared with hunting, the risk of fishing is much lower.

   However, his fishing skills are really hard to describe in words. It is rare to catch him with professional fishing gear and bait, let alone without such things.

  In fact, this is not entirely his problem. If fish are so easy to catch, why don't the survivors settle down by the lake?

  The fish in Linghu Lake are also mutants, which are the alien species in the mouth of the survivors.

   Tried several times without success, and put in the fishing gear that took so much time to make, Chu Guang gave up.

   "Can you fish?"

   Facing the manager's inquiry, Kuang Feng was stunned for a moment and said.

   "No... But I checked on the Internet, there are such fishing traps, I plan to try to make a few."

Although I'm not sure if the NPC can understand what it means to "check it on the Internet", but the NPC didn't respond to it when they talked about things in reality a few times before. Presumably, the program setting will automatically ignore this. Such content, so the wind simply said it.

  Chu Guang was overjoyed in his heart, but nodded calmly on his face.

   "Okay, since you know how to catch fish, I'll leave it to you!"

  After getting the order, Kuang Feng and Ye Shili immediately ran to make a trap.

   Catching fish is much more interesting than moving bricks and cutting trees!

  Chu Guang watched as they collected some branches and plastic ropes they picked up from nowhere, squatted near the corner of the wall and fiddled with them.

   Ignoring them, what Chu Guang wants to study now is how to use the bought tobacco leaves to smoke meat.

Yesterday, according to the method of the Beit Street survivors, he crushed the tobacco leaves and wrapped them on the meat, and then slowly baked them with firewood, so that the tar rich in ketol compounds in the leaves penetrated into the fat layer of the meat, killing the meat. Parasites and microbes…

   I don't know if it's his illusion, why does it always feel a little smelly?

   "It shouldn't be..."

   Picking up a piece of hind leg meat and sniffing it closer, Chu Guang frowned.

  Under normal circumstances, the meat smoked in this way should have a smell of nicotine, with a burnt yellow grease on the surface.

  However, the hind leg meat in its hand is obviously dark red in color, cooked on the outside and raw on the inside, and has a faint rotten smell.

   "Is the method wrong?"
