Overnight surge.Early the next morning, Lin Xi woke up from his sleep comfortably, only feeling physically and mentally satisfied.Probably people sometimes really need to vent!
Anyway, she was very satisfied with Wuchen's ability.After lying in the quilt for a while, Lin Xi finally couldn't resist the rumbling stomach, slowly got up, and put on the animal skin skirt.She rubbed her waist and walked out of the cave, the sun was shining outside, the red leaves were clustered in the distance, and the comfort of a warm autumn sun.Wuchen is not at home at this time.Lin Xi vaguely remembered that when she was still asleep in the morning, Wuchen woke her up and said that she was going to the White Fury Chief, and then closed the door of the cave and went out.Lin Xi knew that Wuchen went to Bai Nu for yesterday's fireplace and the matter of drying cured meat.Because a few days ago, although Bai Nu gave an order, let the orcs in the tribe learn how to build a fire kang.But there are still some orcs, for various reasons, who did not follow suit.These various reasons are nothing more than old age and infirmity, or the orcs themselves are thin and do not have so much strength to get so many stones, or pure laziness.And yesterday, after she and Wuchen personally participated in the production process of the fireplace, Bai Nu felt that the production of the fireplace was much simpler and more trouble-free than the ondol.If you dig a fireplace, even an orc who is old and in poor health should be able to dig it out little by little.So he planned to teach this method of building a fireplace to the orcs of the tribe as well.If in the future, there are still orcs who are unwilling to rebuild their dwellings, then the cold of winter can only make them resist as hard as before.And the heating problem of the orcs who lived in the shack, Bai Fu finally came up with a solution.He was going to do an experiment in his hut first.First dig a shallow pit in the ground inside the shack, and lay stone slabs in the shallow pit to make an upper and lower structure.The fire is then placed on the outside of the shack, and the flue is dug directly from the back of the shack.In this way, it is equivalent to making a fire kang buried in the ground.This allows you to keep warm without worrying about the shack catching fire.When Lin Xi was here last night, Bai Nu also specially asked Lin Xi's opinion on this method.But unexpectedly, before he finished speaking, Lin Xi showed a shocked expression!
When Wuchen first said it, Lin Xi didn't feel anything.But the more he spoke, the more Lin Xi felt that the method he said had an inexplicable sense of familiarity!
How is this fire kang buried in the ground so similar to the 'kang' of ethnic minorities living in the countryside on the northeast border of China in the past?
Although it is different from the kang that Lin Xi is building now, the principle is similar!
Lin Xi still remembers that when he traveled there before, the tour guide once introduced it, saying that the kind of kang over there was called "Wentu".Thinking about it like this, Lin Xi had to be a little surprised!
After all, this can be regarded as Bai Nu's own method on the basis of her fire kang.This at least shows that the intelligence of the orcs may not be lower than her!
It's just that they are missing one, the first time from nothing!
They just lack enlighteners!
After realizing this, Lin Xi suddenly felt a little excited!
Perhaps, she can see an evolution of civilization in this tribe!
Lin Xi looked at the sun in the sky and stretched his waist.Her mind was still thinking about yesterday's events, but although those thoughts were great when she thought about them, what she had to do now was even more trivial.After Lin Xi finished washing, he simply ate a little barbecue left by Wuchen in the morning, and then got busy again.Her self-defense bow and arrow haven't been done yet.She looked for the trunk of the bitter tree that she had brought back from the forest the day before yesterday.There are two trunks in total, both of which are nearly two meters long and the size of a wrist.Lin Xi first found the bone knife, cut the bark on the trunk along a line, and then bit by bit, carefully and completely tore off the bark from the trunk.The bark that was torn off, Lin Xi separated the tendons and outer bark from the bark, tore them into small strips one finger wide, and then put them aside to dry first.In the past, she liked to watch some wilderness survival programs, and one of the videos was about making primitive bows and arrows, and the process was not complicated, and Lin Xi remembered it very clearly.But just because you remember it clearly doesn't mean it's easy to do.It was the first time she had done such delicate manual work, and because of her caution and unskillfulness, it took her a lot of time just to tear off the bark and separate the tendons.Then you have to cut the trunk of the tree little by little with a bone knife into the shape of a bow.This one is more laborious.Lin Xi had been getting the sun to set in the west from noon to the west, and finally completed a very rough wooden bow.It took her nearly another hour to smooth the surface of the bow.Then she lit a fire, planted branches on either side of the fire, and hung a wooden bow on top of the fire to smoke it.Wood that has been smoked will be harder and less likely to break.After dealing with the first bow, Lin Xi sat back and continued to work on the second one.The blade of the bone knife was no longer sharp at this time, and Lin Xi put it on the stone and sharpened it, but the effect was not very good.Soon, her palms were red because of the long-term beating action, and the tiger's mouth was numb from the non-stop movement.And just then, Wuchen returned with a bag full of prey.He brought back nine gray chickens, as well as six eggs.Seeing those gray chickens, Lin Xi's eyes immediately lit up!
She's in need of a toba for an arrowtail!"
Wuchen, don't throw away the feathers on the tails and wings of these gray chickens, I have a useful use."
Lin Xi pointed to a few chickens on the ground and said to Wuchen.Although Wuchen was puzzled, he still nodded and agreed: "Okay!"
”After saying that, he picked up four gray chickens from the ground and went to the river to deal with them.The remaining five will be saved for tomorrow morning.Lin Xi took advantage of the fact that Wuchen was going to deal with the gray chicken, and took the six eggs into the cave.The shell of this gray egg is also gray, and it looks much larger than the average egg.Lin Xi clenched her fist and compared it with the egg, and found that the egg was bigger than her fist.Six eggs, Lin Xi plans to take out four directly tonight and make them into omelets, and leave two more to make chicken cakes tomorrow morning.She put the two eggs she was going to set aside with the five chickens she had eaten tomorrow morning, and the remaining four were directly beaten into a small husk bowl, stirred up with chopsticks, and set aside for later use.Wuchen quickly finished disposing of the four gray chickens and came back from the river.When he came back, Lin Xi had already made a fire for cooking.Tonight's four gray chickens are still roasted.Lin Xi stirred the washed salty stones, small sweet fruits, and sour fruits together.Then stuff it into the belly of the cleaned gray chicken, and then use animal skin rope to tie the chicken's belly tightly, and then Wuchen uses a branch to thread the four chickens respectively, poke them above the fire, and roast them slowly.
