Survival On An Isolated Island: My Island Can Swallow

076. The Mermaid's Clue

Seeing that Qin Quge has set up a bonfire and is preparing to roast chicken,

Edward got up, said something to Qin Quge, and walked out.

Of course Qin Quge followed him out.

This guy won't come out with more pots and pans.

However, Edward greeted his few remaining skeleton crew members and walked straight into the Lord of the Sea.

After about 20 minutes, they came back dripping wet,

However, unlike leaving empty-handed, they came back with many things in their arms.

such as kelp, and some corals,

But the remaining Qin Quge couldn't be sure what it was.

"Your Excellency Gluttonous, these seafood may make the food more delicious."

Edward is very excited,

In the past two days, only cooking can make him happy from the bottom of his heart.

But Qin Quge looked dazed.

He also knows how to make kelp, a marine plant,

Things like coral can't be used to make soup.

But Edward had already put their gains in front of Qin Quge.

[System prompt: Get kelp*7.]

[System prompt: Get sea fungus*5.]

[System prompt: Obtain crystal coral*2.]

There are quite a lot of things, and there are many seashells,

Use wooden basins to store some seafood that you know how to eat, 130

Qin Quge was having a hard time holding a few crystalline corals.

He has heard that coral can be eaten,

But how to eat is a problem.

"Your Majesty Taotie, after this coral is ground into powder, it has a spicy taste and can be used as pepper. This dark red stone is actually seabed mineral salt, um... it should be used as salt. There is also this A tube-shaped plant that can be used as a herb..."

Edward's nagging solved the problem that Qin Quge had nowhere to attack.

With these ingredients, it's okay to roast the chicken, and make a chicken soup.

However, soup needs a pot,

Qin Quge had to dig out the pots and pans that Edward had brought before, found a suitable size, washed and washed them, and then put them on the campfire.

Put the whole chicken into the pot, add a small amount of crystal coral, sea herbs,

Put in the right amount of water, pour a glass of rum,

Bring to a boil, skim off the froth,

Turn down the heat... well, remove half the wood for the campfire, and continue to simmer for half an hour,

Then put the cut kelp and sea fungus in,

simmer for a few minutes,

A pot of fragrant chicken soup is complete.

salt mine

Whether that thing can be eaten is still a matter of debate, not every kind of salt can be eaten.

Edward, who was waiting next to him, was already ready to go, and it took him more than an hour to cook the chicken soup.

But Qin Quge didn't speak, he didn't dare to move,

Qin Quge took a sip by himself,

The spicy chicken soup is a bit weird,

However, the conditions are limited, so we can only make do with it.

He filled a bowl for himself, broke off two chicken legs,

The rest was pushed to Edward.

I haven't finished eating a chicken leg here yet,

Edward has already eaten half the pot.

"Tell me about the appearance of those murlocs." Qin Quge muttered as he gnawed on the chicken leg, "Is the upper body human-shaped and the lower body fish-shaped? Or is it the other way around?"

For these murlocs, Qin Quge is still very curious,

Is there any connection between these murlocs and the unbelievable mermaid that the system reminded at the very beginning?

"No, no, no." Edward took a big mouthful of chicken soup and replied, "The one we encountered is not what you said. How should I put it, it's like a fish with limbs. You can also say it has a fish head. monster."

"what?"

Qin Quge sketched in his mind the appearance of a fish growing limbs, and couldn't help shivering.

Obviously, this is completely different from the mermaid family he imagined.

Even in the legend, the men in the mermaids are extremely ugly,

But it can't be a fish with limbs.

Edward seemed to have seen Qin Quge's thoughts,

"Well, do you want to make sure they belong to that race?"

Qin Quge nodded,

But what he cares about is not these murlocs,

(aefd) Whether Daken Jones' heart can be brought back is not in Qin Quge's thinking,

The ruins of the shipwreck are enough for him to use,

He cares more about mermaids.

Obviously, a mermaid that can make the system care about it must be a very special existence,

Edward took another sip of chicken soup, and said his guess: "Actually, you just wanted to ask if the mermaid we encountered was a mermaid, right? I have sailed in the sea for hundreds of years, and I have encountered many alien races, such as sirens Banshees, they will attract sailors with beautiful and seductive singing in the sea, and their singing is so powerful that it is difficult for the Nether clan to resist. Once they are introduced into the sea, they are almost fatal. Many people think that Sirens are Mermaids are actually not the case. Sirens are human heads and bird bodies with the ability to transform.

It seems that it is rare to find a person who can say a few more words,

Once he opened his mouth, he was a little eloquent.

"The Sirens are actually a group!"

Qin Quge has read the legend of the siren, but what he knows is that in Greek mythology, including the siren, there are many half-human, half-demon creatures who are the descendants of the gods.

And Zeus, king of the gods, was a walking stallion.

This is not an adjective, people really turned into horses to hook up with girls.

Plus Edward mentioned Hades, the god of the underworld.

Qin Quge doubts that Edward's world is a world descended from Greek mythology,

Then their world should be very interesting,

In theory, there should be a bunch of artifacts,

If Edward can travel between the two worlds, then Qin Quge can earn more supplies along the way.

"It can't be said that sirens are a group of people. It should be said that sirens are the title of a kind of sea monster. Just like I call you your Excellency, it is a kind of respect. But mermaids exist, and they are indeed very beautiful, otherwise The sirens will not turn into mermaids to lure the sailors."

"So, there were mermaids in your world. Have you ever seen them?"

Qin Quge came alive.

Even the sirens use mermaids as templates for transfiguration,

How beautiful are these mermaids who even complain about the system.

But Edward shook his head: "Unfortunately, I haven't seen it. I just heard about it. But I know that the captain of a ghost ship has seen it. Moreover, this time he also came to this world

"Who?"

"The Cotton Jack, the captain is Jack Parrow. However, this guy is a very selfish guy, if he wants to get some information from him, I'm afraid he will be extorted severely. Moreover, the St. Mary's current ship It looks like, once those guys know about it, maybe they will take action against me."

Qin Quge frowned slightly.

Cotton Jack?

I seem to have heard this word somewhere. .
