Chapter 25 Finding Salt
Shi Jian was frightened by the lack of salt last time, so he didn't bother to hunt and collect fruits, and devoted himself to the great cause of finding salt.

From the materials copied earlier, Shi Jian found a way to find salt in the wild, and after digging out impractical ones such as seawater and saltwater lakes, there were only two usable ones left.

One is to look for it from animals and plants, and the other is to look for salt mines.

In the end, Shi Jian chose the second option.

The first point is not to mention the output, even the method Shi Jian can't stand it.For example, shrimp and animal blood contain salt, but they can only be used as substitutes and cannot be separated out.And like hickory roots, there really are, there is a hickory just outside the birch forest.Shi Jian also burned a section of tree roots, and a layer of salt did precipitate out after burning black, but the yield was too low.

So it's better to go to the salt mine.Salt mines are also hard to find, and much of the salt we eat is produced from well salt, rock salt and other salt mines.Therefore, when the Japanese nuclear power leaked, the rush to buy salt was pure speculation.Because more than 90.00% of the table salt in our country is mineral salt.

Salt mines are formed after ancient seawater was covered, and are generally buried very deep.There are also shallow salt mines. Shi Jian doesn't know where they are, but he does.Mammals need salt, so following a mammal will usually find it.

Shi Jian cast his eyes on Xiaomeng and Serena, the ambiguity in it caused Serena to run away for a long time, and Xiaomeng was also trembling, looking at Shi Jian in fear, wondering what his intentions were.

Shi Jian looked at Xiaomeng, smiled and said, "Well, Xiaomeng, do you know where there is salt? Take me there, and I will give you a little red flower." Seeing that Xiaomeng was indifferent, he hurriedly said, "Brother I'll give you two pieces of barbecue."

Xiaomeng didn't understand what Shi Jian was talking about, and kept looking at Shi Jian in a daze, only to jump for joy when she heard the barbecue, and Serena also jumped over.

Their performance made Shi Jian deeply moved. It seems that material rewards are much more effective than spiritual rewards.

Shi Jian took Xiaomeng and Serena out to find salt.Xiaomeng and Serena ran in front all the way, Shi Jian followed closely behind the two little guys, thinking, "I really am a pig, I will find salt if I raise two pets."

Xiaomeng and Xiaowei lead Shi Jian to a trap, and dare not go forward from a distance.Shi Jian knew that they were scared by the trap, but would there be salt here?not like

Before the trap caught the prey, Shi Jian was looking for salt on the ground, while Xiaomeng and Xiaowei ran to the other side.

Shi Jian hurriedly followed, but after running through several traps, Shi Jian finally understood.These two guys didn't understand, they only understood the barbecue, which is to bring him to collect prey.

Shi Jian repeatedly explained to them that they need to find salt first, but they still ran from one trap to another.The traps were only set in the morning, and now there is no prey to take the bait. As a result, the two little guys brought Shi Jian all the way to the stream, looked at the fish in the stream, and yelled at Shi Jian.

"You know how to eat!" Shi Jian was so angry that he patted the two of them on the head.

Shi Jian sat on the hillside with his legs crossed, ignoring the lynx brothers who were playing at his feet, thinking to himself: "What animal should I follow? The little lynxes don't know how to find salt, and the rabbits must be too. too fast."

As he was thinking, he saw a red deer drinking water downstream from a distance. Shi Jian slapped his thigh, and Xiaomeng jumped aside in fright, looking up at Shi Jian.

"That's all!" Shi Jian stared at the red deer, with the corners of his mouth curled up, showing a lewd smile, as if what he saw was not the red deer drinking water, but the goddess in his dream swimming naked in the stream.

Downstream there are three red deer in total, all male deer, all of them are huge, with forked horns on their heads, and one of them has as many as six forked horns.If it weren't for the horns on his head, Shi Jian would have thought it was a few horses from a distance.It is estimated that the deer that Zhao Gao refers to as a horse is a red deer.

It is said that the red deer has weak eyesight, but has a well-developed sense of hearing and smell, and is naturally vigilant.Shi Jian didn't dare to approach them, but just looked at the three red deer from a distance.

After drinking the water, the red deer scattered away.It was only then that Shi Jian realized that they just met each other when they drank water, and they did not live in groups, which was also in line with the habit of male deer living alone.Shi Jian chose the six-pronged red deer to follow, and told the lynx brothers to be more honest, so as not to startle the red deer, Shi Jian's speed could not catch up.

The red deer stopped and stopped, stood down from time to time, looked around, and gnawed the weeds and shrub branches around it when it felt that it was not in danger.

"Damn, can you take a better path?" Shi Jian complained while carefully avoiding the bushes, for fear of being heard by the red deer.

Xiaomeng and Xiaowei bent down their shorter front paws, raised their buttocks, and moved forward step by step, more cautious than Shi Jian.Shi Jian saw their movements very familiarly, and thought for a long time before he remembered them.This is how lions hunt in the animal world. It seems that cats are similar.

The red deer walked all the way down the mountain, unaware that there were three guys following behind him.After going down the mountain, the red deer suddenly started to run, and disappeared after a while.

Shi Jian felt helpless, scratched his head, and led the lynx brothers to chase in the direction where the red deer left.After walking for about five miles, I finally saw the figure of the red deer. Although the fur of this big guy can be camouflaged by nature, it is really too big, not to mention that there is a big six-pronged antler on its head.

Seeing the red deer, Shi Jian became excited again, and told Xiaomeng Xiaowei to stop, and continued to tail the red deer.

The red deer turned left and turned right into a small valley, and Shi Jian followed.

This small valley is located between two hills. The ground in the valley is very flat, and there are no tall trees. The ground is full of weeds and occasionally mixed with some shrubs.The weeds in early autumn are full of golden seeds. From a distance, it looks like a golden ocean, making people think that they have seen a bumper rice field.

Shi Jian also thought for a moment that he was in a rice field in the countryside, but he immediately came to his senses.Even if it used to be a paddy field, it is impossible to grow rice now, because rice is artificially bred now, and the rice in the field has no reproductive ability. These are just common barnyard grasses.

When his parents were still alive, they also told Shi Jian about the situation in the village. It is said that some people collected weed seeds to satisfy their hunger.Shi sticks to Xiaoxing'an Mountains, and there is no shortage of food, so he doesn't think about grass seeds.

Seeing the red deer climbed up to a barren hillside and lowered its head to eat something there, Shi Jian was immediately delighted.

"There is no grass growing there, it should be a salt field." Shi Jian finally found the salt.

Shi Jian excitedly ran over with Xiaomeng Xiaowei, frightened the hero who led the way and ran away. He didn't stop until a long way away, looking resentfully at this heartless man who killed the donkey.

Wherever Shi Jian had time to take care of the red deer, he went straight to the place where the red deer licked and searched carefully.On the contrary, Xiaomeng and Serena chased Red Deer on a whim.Seeing the natural enemy, the red deer was about to run away again, but when they saw that they were two little guys, they stood still, lowered their heads, and held a pair of giant horns in a defensive posture.Xiaomeng and Xiaowei pounced on him several times but were repelled by the red deer, and were almost injured, so they ran to Shi Jian resentfully.The red deer continued to lick the ground with disdain, despising the two underage cubs in their hearts, and wanted to catch me. It will take another two years.

He didn't care about Xiaomeng and Serena's failure at all, Shi Jian inspected the ground for a long time, finally dug up a small piece of salt, put it in his mouth, and quickly spit it out with a "pooh".

This is not an open-pit salt mine, just a salt-alkali field.The bitter and astringent taste made Shi Jian unable to get rid of it even by vomiting a few times, so he had to pick up the water bottle and drink saliva to rinse his mouth.

"That doesn't work either." Shi Jian said to Xiaomeng and Xiaowei, "The salt can be precipitated out with water, but who knows if there is anything harmful to the human body in these salts."

Xiaomeng nodded her head in agreement, while Serena shook her head to express her ignorance.

Seeing that they had no idea, Shi Jian reprimanded again: "Don't play all day long, we need to find salt now. Do you know where it is?"

Seeing their bewildered looks, Shi Jian hesitated and said, "Why don't we go to the town to collect them?"

This time the two lynxes started to nod their heads, and Shi Jian didn't look at them sleepy-eyed, so he patted his legs and said, "Look, you agree too! Then let's go to town tomorrow!"
