Smoked is a method of dehydration. It mainly uses the warm smoke of the flame to smoke the barbecue, giving the meat a unique smoky flavor, and at the same time, it will slowly cook the meat into cooked or semi-cooked food. Reduce the moisture in meat, just like our common jerky.
Thinking is a very good emergency method. We humans have been thinking from birth to now, from the ancient apes to the present, we have been learning, and the knowledge we mastered is passed on to the next generation.
A young man growing up in the 21st century, even an ordinary person, as long as he is good at making use of everything he has, he can draw a beautiful picture on a deserted island.
Zhao Yunxiang knows how to use everything available around him, including the leaves and vines that grow out of nature, and even the bark!
These natural objects, as long as they are used reasonably, will become tools!
Human beings have been requesting from nature since ancient times. Of course, they are inseparable from their own hard work. People rely on their own wisdom to pass on from generation to generation, and finally through the transformation of science and technology, they can obtain daily necessities more conveniently, just like We are familiar with paper, cooking oil, etc...
Before making the smoking room, Zhao Yunxiang cleaned up the shelter. The shelter was soaked with water. The palm leaves covered with water droplets were taken out and discarded directly on the beach.
The water permeability of the sand is very good, the silver-white beach is no longer wet, and the palm leaves can be effectively dried on it.
The ground of the shelter is completely exposed to the ground. This sandy soil has very poor water permeability. It takes some effort to make the ground water completely disappear.
Of course, if you can leave the ground, that would be even better. Unfortunately, Zhao Yunxiang now doesn't have the tools to leave the ground at all. He can only cover up the leaves desperately and use leaves to isolate part of the ground temperature.
In fact, what Zhao Yunxiang wants most is to lie down and take a good rest. However, he wants a dry and comfortable bed, which is really difficult, because the sun is not out, the overall temperature is only a few ten degrees, and the moisture content in the air is very high. Large, the entire island and even the sea area within the horizon is full of water vapor.
Although the sun did not appear, Zhao Yunxiang did his own way. He moved the burning wood to the shelter to make the fire cover the ground as much as possible!
The temperature released by the fire is not only above the flame, but the temperature below the flame is also terribly high. Placing the fire on the ground in a small house can effectively evaporate the ground moisture and warm the ground.
"Zizi..."
The fire in the small house is making a "sizzling" sound. This is basically the case when the flame encounters water. As long as the flame can be controlled to not extinguish, don't light the small house.
After fixing this, he has the leisure to make a smokehouse!
Zhao Yunxiang found a few tree trunks and a few vines. First, he made a tripod out of branches of basically the same length!
The principle of the tripod is derived from the triangle. It has strong stability. Three sticks are tied in series to tie one end, and then try to open the three branches equally to make an isosceles triangle. One end is deeply embedded in the soft sand.
After completing the triangle, Zhao Yunxiang also tested it specifically. The stability of the triangle is very strong. The three sticks embedded in the soil will restrain each other and will not fall down inexplicably.
The smoking room is basically airtight, so that the thick smoke can smoke the meat for a long time, so as to greatly absorb the moisture in the meat. Zhao Yunxiang can't do it in an absolutely airtight space, but it is very simple to cover it with leaves. .
On the roundabout road, Zhao Yunxiang not only brought back a lot of bones, but also some huge plant leaves. These leaves are combined with the banana leaves and can be used as a good waterproof and windproof material!
The 1-meter-high tripod was covered with leaves, and the found vines were scattered with stones to make a rope for use. The leaves on the outer layer of the tripod were tied up, and the remaining two-thirds of the marine fish was hung on the smoke. In the smoke room.
After placing the fish, Zhao Yunxiang felt a little bit that his smoking room was not perfect enough. He could use vines to outline a vine net in the middle of the smoking room, so that he could place some meat at will. , It smokes more evenly and saves effort.
Let's talk about it after the transformation. Now Zhao Yunxiang just wants to move the fire under the smoke room. He can take a good rest. Today's work is not very intensive, but for a sick person, it is really tiring.
Place a piece of burning wood in the smoking room with a few wet woods on top. It didn’t take long for the smoking room to be filled with smoke. The smoking room full of leaves is fine, although it is not completely sealed, but , As long as it is smoked for a long time, it won’t be long before the sea fish can be dehydrated into dried fish.
Zhao Yunxiang supported his waist, his sweating has never stopped, the pain in his throat is more obvious, his eyes are hot and dry, and his nasal congestion can still only make him gasp with his mouth.
The bowl of medicinal soup no longer burns my mouth, it is a bit cold, and the cold medicinal soup is no longer so pungent, Zhao Yunxiang tried to taste it.
"Uh……"
After taking a sip of the medicine soup, Zhao Yunxiang's face was distorted. The medicine soup was very bitter. When he swallowed, his throat was very painful. Now his tonsils and throat are probably red and swollen. This is a sign of inflammation.
In order to get better as soon as possible, Zhao Yunxiang held his breath and drank all the decoction in the tin box. After these few mouthfuls, he inevitably swallowed many residues of foxtail and bidens.
After drinking the medicine, Zhao Yunxiang immediately picked up a bottle of slightly turbid rainwater and started to wash it down. The mixture of these herbs was even worse than herbal soup!
The smoke is still going on Zhao Yunxiang used a wooden stick to poke out all the wood in the small house. After a long time of baking, the ground is no longer so muddy, and the ground is hot!
"What you want is this effect!"
Zhao Yunxiang's eyelids were fighting, and he seemed to fall asleep as soon as he closed his eyes. He quickly spread palm leaves and many huge leaves on the ground of the small house, covering a thick layer.
"Finally I can sleep. I hope I can cool down when I wake up and the inflammation in my throat can be eliminated!" Zhao Yunxiang has no other extravagances, only hopes to get better soon.
Before going to bed, add firewood to the fire, and the smoke room is the same. After finishing this, Zhao Yunxiang dragged a few huge leaves into the shack, covered a few leaves, and closed his eyes.
Almost at the moment he closed his eyes, Zhao Yunxiang's snoring sounded, and a smile appeared on the corner of his mouth.
"It's so warm underneath, and it feels good to sleep with your eyes closed!"
...
"Wake up, old Zhao is awake!!"
I don't know who shouted, and many people suddenly appeared in front of Zhao Yunxiang's eyes.
"maltose?"
"monkey?"
"Qianluo?"
"Me?" Zhao Yunxiang said weakly, "What happened to me?"
"You are caught in the nightmare light, and your mental power is transferred to another dimension. If you are not careful, you will die there. Fortunately, you wake up!" The monkey leaned against the door, holding an unknown one in his hand. fruit.
"I remember now, it seems that I was fainted by the poisonous chishi!" Zhao Yunxiang nodded, seemingly aroused something.
"It's fine if you wake up. Someone is looking for you outside. It seems that they are teachers who claim to be Zhao Wuyin and Li Yunqing..." Maltose pointed outside and said.
