After traveling through ancient times, she became a wild woman

Chapter 895 Salt Stone Layer at the Bottom of the Lake

The salt lake is still picturesque, with golden light spreading on the water. The water is sparkling, with layers of golden light spots.

Xiao Se ran towards the salt she dried last night: "I'm going to take a look at my salt."

I ran to the straw mat. There were still water stains on the straw mat. It had not dried completely. I could only see the edge of the straw mat, which was slightly white.

Xiao Se pointed to the white color on the edge of the straw mat and said excitedly: "This white color is salt. Let's stay in the sun for another day and see what happens."

She squatted down again and looked at the bottom of the straw mat. The bottom of the straw mat was also wet and nothing could be seen.

Xiao Se then checked the salt lake water on the stone. The water was still water and had not evaporated, just like what he saw last night.

"I'll show you this later."

Xiao Se checked this place and asked A-Tuo: "Yesterday you said there are no fish and beasts in the water, right? Now let me ask you again, are there any fish and beasts in the water?"

A-Tuo said firmly: "No. If there really is a fish beast, there is no way we wouldn't know about it."

He has lived here for more than [-] years. It is impossible not to know whether there are fish and animals in this lake.

When he ate fish and beasts in the Qinglong tribe, he was surprised. He didn't expect the fish and beasts to be so delicious.

In their abyss tribe, although there is a large lake, there are no fish in it. The fish they eat are all from the creek, which have many small spines. Most tribes will not eat fish and beasts.

There is a forest behind their cave, and there are many wild animals in it. They only need to hunt every day and have enough food to prevent them from becoming fish-eating beasts.

Xiao Se breathed a sigh of relief again: "Okay, then I need the six of you to go down now. After you go down, dive to the point you think you can dive to, open the bamboo tube cover, and fill up the water at that location."

She wanted to taste the depth of the water, whether it was saltier than the surface.

The six Atuos, who had bamboo tubes and luminous pearls tied around their waists, hugged a stone and jumped directly into the lake without any precautions.

With a splash, six people jumped into the lake one after another, and the water rippled around and around, heading into the distance.

Because they have luminous pearls tied to their bodies, even if A Tuo and others sink to the bottom of the water, Xiao Se and others standing on the shore can clearly see the scene in the water from the clear surface of the lake.

There are no fish or animals in the water, but there are still creatures that cannot be seen with the naked eye.

The luminous pearl continued to fall, and then stopped.

Xiao Se looked at the bottom of the water from above. The water bottom should be more than ten meters deep, because the luminous pearls in the water could still be seen clearly.

A Tuo and others in the water filled bamboo tubes with water, threw away the stones, and floated toward the surface.

Xiao Se roughly calculated the time and found that it took almost three minutes from diving down to coming back up.

It seems that the people of the Abyssal Tribe are not only good swimmers, but they can also dive.

A-Tuo rushed out of the water, wiped the water on his face, and handed the bamboo tube to Xiao Se: "Here."

Xiao Se took the bamboo tube and said, "Pull him up."

The tribesmen pulled A-Tuo and others up one by one and took the water from the bamboo tube.

Xiao Se took the water in the bamboo tube and came to the large stone next to it. He removed the stopper and poured a mouthful of lake water into the bowl. He took a sip. She trembled all over because of the saltiness and frowned: "It's so salty!"

Night Breeze smelled it and took another sip: "It's saltier than the water on the lake. Why?"

Xiao Se opened the second bamboo tube: "The reason why the water in this lake is salty is because there is a salt stone layer at the bottom of the lake."

"The water at the bottom of the lake is salty because it is close to the salt stone layer." "The water on the surface of the lake is lighter because it is covered with rainwater, and the salt water at the bottom cannot rise."

"This leads to the fact that the water closer to the salt layer is saltier, and the water closer to the surface is fresher."

Ye Feng suddenly realized: "So this is what happened? Is this salty?"

After taking a sip of Xiao Se, Xian's whole facial features wrinkled up: "Salty, just as salty."

The salty taste of the water in the two bamboo tubes made her tremble: "You don't have to taste it, it's almost the same. This shows that the salt boiled from the water on the surface of the lake is not as much as the salt boiled from the bottom of the lake."

Night Breeze frowned: "You want to boil the salt from the bottom of the lake?"

"That's for sure." Xiao Se put the stopper in place, "It's the same bucket of water. The water at the bottom of the lake can boil a basin of salt, but the surface of the lake can only boil a small bowl of salt. Naturally, I chose the bottom of the lake."

"Otherwise, it will be a waste of time, and the salt will not be pure enough. I will not accept it if I think about it."

Since it takes the same amount of time, why not make the best salt possible.

Ye Feng knew this and asked: "According to what you said, the salt at the bottom of the lake is indeed the best. But how are we going to pull up the water from the bottom of the lake? It is impossible to let the tribesmen jump to the bottom of the lake holding stones. Then bring up the water in one bamboo tube and the other in bamboo tubes, right?"

That would make the progress slower. It would be better to boil salt directly with the water on the surface of the lake, which would be faster than asking the tribesmen to jump to the bottom of the lake to get water.

Moreover, although it is July, the lake is still a bit cold. I keep diving back and forth. How can my body without protection bear it?
"That won't work." Xiao Se frowned, "We have to think of another way. What if we use bamboo to make a siphon, suck the water from the bottom of the lake up, and then boil the salt?"

Ye Feng's eyes lit up: "This is a good idea. In this case, the bamboo will have to go to the bottom of the lake, otherwise the water that will be sucked up will be the water on the surface of the lake."

"Yes." Xiao Se clapped his hands happily, "Let's do it like this, let's make a siphon, and then set up a pot here to boil the salt."

Now that you have the idea, the next step is to take action.

Ah Ri took his tribe to cut bamboo. Fortunately, there was bamboo wherever there were woods, otherwise the bamboo would have been a big problem.

Xiao Se asked the people of the Abyss Tribe if they had stone barrels and jars, and they all said they didn't. It was really worse than the Qinglong Tribe without Arthur.

At least the Qinglong tribe had stone bowls and pots in the past. Although no one used the stone pots, at least they had them.

The Abyss Tribe doesn't even have one.

After Xiao Se thought for a while, he directly led the tribesmen to dig a reservoir here, then dug out sand and added lime to make cement, and then painted the reservoir.

Once applied, the cement is almost dry and can be used to hold water.

If the reservoir does not need to be coated with cement, the water will continue to seep into the ground after being put in. That is the water they really want, and it is not as fast as the ground absorbing it.

A simple thatched house was built above the reservoir to keep out the rain and prevent it from diluting the lake water after it rains.

Of course, the thatched house can also be used to shade the sun. After all, it is quite hot in this sunny day.

It's done here, and the chopped bamboo has been cleaned and made into pipes.

Chang Sheng and Ye Feng worked together to suck out the water from the bamboo, and then asked A Tuo and others to sink the bamboo to the bottom of the lake and fix it.

If the bamboo is not placed at the bottom of the lake, the water sucked out will not be from the bottom of the lake, but from the surface of the salt lake, so there is no need to go to a lot of trouble.

The water sucked up from the bottom of the lake flows into the reservoir through the bamboos. The water has a turbid white color.
