My Island Survival in the Wild

Chapter 423 Birth of Black Powder

The process of applying tung oil is also very simple, you only need to apply it on the sides and bottom of the boat.

And as a short-distance voyage, Lin Xiu doesn't need to consider the stability of tung oil.

He only needs to consider the waterproofing of the boat.

After finishing the tung oil, Lin Xiu has nothing else to do.

Now they need to wait for the boat to dry.

And the next step of the plan will take time to wait.

In the indigenous tribe in the distance, the sound of guns and artillery has not stopped.

"These natives have taken out all the treasures they have collected for many years!"

Lin Xiu looked at the gunpowder smoke in the distance and made a complaint.

These indigenous weapons are obviously still used by pirates before, and there is no progress at all.

This also shows that they basically don't have the ability to make their own musket ammunition.

What they are fighting now are all the supplies left by the previous pirates.

When they finish fighting, it is estimated that there will not be many bullets and gunpowder left in the tribe.

But this is exactly what Lin Xiu wanted.

The more worn down these guys' weapons, the better the chances of his plan succeeding.

Regardless of the sound from Gu Yuanyuan, Lin Xiu waited for the time to start planning dinner.

Until it got dark, Lin Xiu and the others could still hear the gunshots.

There were constant roars of beasts on the island, apparently awakened by the annoying sound of guns and cannons.

Xiong Batian and the others also showed irritable expressions, but fortunately they were all calmed down by Lin Xiu.

"Old irons, I won't come to sleep with you during the live broadcast today. You can't fall asleep watching the live broadcast!"

Before going to bed, Lin Xiu and Xiong Batian moved a big rock to block the entrance of the cave to prevent the same thing from yesterday.

Titanoboa is rare and rare, but the degree of danger is still very high.

Lin Xiu didn't want to interact with them anymore.

Although it is said that the entrance of the cave has been blocked, the sound of this restless night can still come in.

"Water friends, today's live broadcast is over, we will see you tomorrow."

After turning off the live broadcast, Lin Xiu lay down.

He hadn't fallen asleep since one or two o'clock in the middle of the night last night, keeping his eyes wide open to prevent the titan python from going berserk.

In addition, today is another busy day, so even if it is very noisy outside, it will not prevent Lin Xiu from sleeping.

Xiong Batian and the others were lying beside Lin Xiu. They were big-hearted, so as long as they ignored the roaring beasts outside, they would be able to adapt quickly.

……

In the early morning of the next day, Lin Xiu, who had had a good night's sleep, felt refreshed when he woke up.

"I slept so well!"

Sighing, Lin Xiu came to the garlic juice barrel he made yesterday, and found a white film floating on the garlic juice.

"Very good, the sulfur has been extracted!"

Lin Xiu smiled slightly.

Garlic is a sulfur-rich thing, but it does not mean that you can directly replace sulfur with garlic.

After all, there are many other substances in garlic. If you mix it with gunpowder, the gunpowder will not explode.

Therefore, like Lin Xiu, the sulfur inside must be purified before use.

Because the process of making explosives cannot be broadcast live, Lin Xiu started to work directly.

He fished out the white substance floating on the garlic juice, spread it on a clean pebble bowl, and put it in the fire to roast it into powder.

According to the fixed ratio of gunpowder, Lin Xiu directly measured the weight with his hands, and then added the three ingredients into it.

Half an hour later, Lin Xiu got a bucket of black gunpowder.

"Very good, the gunpowder is finished, just press it when the time comes!"

Lin Xiu's gunpowder was not made for war, so after finishing this barrel, he didn't care about the remaining materials.

Da Jin and Xiong Batian, who had already woken up, looked at the black powder made by Lin Xiu with puzzled faces.

They thought that Lin Xiu was making breakfast, but they didn't expect to make such a dark and inedible thing.

Taking advantage of Lin Xiu's inattention, Xiong Batian picked up a handful of gunpowder powder and set it up.

It sniffed with its nose, but the smell of gunpowder choked it back again and again.

A sneeze!

Xiong Batian sneezed fiercely, blowing the gunpowder in his hand away.

Pfft!
The gunpowder powder floated onto the fire, and immediately turned into a large ball of sparks, making a subtle explosion sound.

"Ow!"

"quack!"

Scared, Xiong and Diao ran back in a hurry, looking at the fire in disbelief.

"You two stupid guys, didn't I tell you that this is not edible, and you are still so curious!"

Lin Xiu knew what the two of them had done when he saw the situation, so he slapped them one by one.

Gunpowder is a dangerous thing if it comes into contact with fire, Lin Xiu can't let these two out of stock touch casually.

They were frightened by the gunpowder just now, but now they all lowered their heads, looking like elementary school students being scolded.

Seeing this, Lin Xiu had no choice but to sigh, and did not continue to reprimand him.

"Okay, now that things are done, let's take you to do morning exercises together!"

Lin Xiu lifted the gunpowder barrel to the other side of the cave, then dug a hole and placed it there.

It will take a while before this thing comes in handy, just put it in a safe place now.

"Hmm!"

Hearing that Lin Xiu was going to take them to exercise in the morning, the two animals nodded and happily followed Lin Xiu out.

"Daijin, your exercise method is to run with us first, and then I will teach you a special exercise method!"

Before the morning exercise, Lin Xiu first said to Da Jin.

Their body structures are different. Naturally, Da Jin cannot practice the same events as Lin Xiu and the others.

Da Jin nodded, instead of using his wings to fly, he ran with Lin Xiu and the others.

It's just that it's so big and carved, it always feels funny to run with your feet.

"Start the live broadcast!"

While running around the mountain, Lin Xiu started the live broadcast.

"Beep beep, student card!"

"First!"

"The anchor started the broadcast a bit late today, I was already squatting in the live broadcast room half an hour earlier!"

As soon as Lin Xiu started the live broadcast, the entire live broadcast room was occupied by water friends' bullet screens, which shows how many true fans Lin Xiu has.

"Sorry, old irons, there is something that didn't start broadcasting earlier, let's start now!"

Lin Xiu smiled apologetically, and then buried himself in running.

Xiong Batian and Dajin followed behind it, and the clothes they wore were a bit similar, so for a while, the water friends felt that this was a training team.

"The anchor has finally resumed morning exercises, Ye Qinghui!"

"The yoga mat has been laid, just waiting to learn with the host!"

"Hahaha, Daikin is also running today, but why is it so funny when he runs!"

"Do you know why eagles fly? It's because their running is so funny!"

The water friends became excited after noticing that Lin Xiu resumed his morning exercises. Since Lin Xiu went to sea, he has been running around on the sea every day.

The water friends have forgotten how long it was since Lin Xiu did his morning exercise last time.
