Chapter 49: Literature and Art Are Not Feasible

Xu Yi has little experience in building shelters.

In his last life, he went with tents and was well equipped.

About the tree and rattan house, it is just a 'literary' idea of Xu Yi.

Whether it's feasible or not, how much time it takes, he doesn't have any experience with this.

However, since they are all in the wilderness, it would be a shame not to give it a try.

It's only the 8th day, so even if it's only 100 days, there's 92 days left.

If you have an idea, you can put it into action.

If not, you can change it early.

"Can we really make a house out of trees and rattan?"

Su Keke thought that Xu Yi's tree vine house was very interesting, and it sounded very good.

Lying in it and sleeping in it, it must be special.

"Well, Daddy will come back by collecting some vines in a moment, and you can make a small hammock for yourself first. ”

What should the tree house do, Xu Yi also had to collect the vines and come back to plan slowly.

If this is not possible, these vines can also weave vine fences.

In short, it is impossible to waste waste.

Walking to the edge of the bonfire, Xu Yi put the back cover of the tablet on top of the bonfire.

"Dad went to fetch some water and came back to wash his face and brush his teeth. ”

Xu said, Xu Yi carried the bucket.

Speaking of brushing his teeth, Xu Yi thinks that tonight, he can start making toothbrushes.

Soon, Xu Yi came back with a bucket of spring water.

Su Keke had already thrown some pebbles into the fire, and he didn't need Xu Yi to explain.

Because the temperature is relatively high, it is also necessary to boil water, so the two of them directly washed their faces with cold water, and then began to brush their teeth with toner.

After washing, Xu Yi split a branch from the tree he had cut down last night.

The branch was two fingers wide, and Xu Yi took a cut of more than ten centimeters.

Then, he split the branch in the middle.

The texture is still very uniform, which is more suitable for making toothbrushes.

Xu Yi then began to cut wood chips with a stone knife, and after cutting for more than ten minutes, the shape of a toothbrush appeared.

"Dad, is this a toothbrush for us?"

Su Keke recognized it at a glance, and blinked his big eyes curiously.

"Well, in the evening, Dad drilled some little holes in it, and tied it into a bundle with the animal hair he picked up yesterday, and then it could be made into a toothbrush. ”

Xu Yi and Su Keke explained, and then handed the sharpened toothbrush handle to Su Keke.

Then, Xu Yi took out the stones from the fire and put them in the bucket.

Soon, the water in the bucket was boiling.

Then he removed the fire and dug the roasted cassava out of the pit.

The water is hot, and cassava is even hotter.

Therefore, Xu Yi took advantage of this effort and began to sharpen another toothbrush.

"Dad, the boiling water is not hot. ”

Su Keke scooped up a bowl of water and handed it to Xu Yi.

Because it has been precipitating for seven or eight minutes, a little grass ash has also settled to the bottom.

Xu Yi took the water and took a sip.

"Well, it's sweet. ”

There is a feeling of drinking mountain springs, which makes Xu Yi very satisfied.

The temperature of cassava also dropped almost as much, and the two of them had breakfast.

After eating, Xu Yi carried a machete to collect vines.

First of all, he collected the trees and vines near the camp first, and in half an hour, Xu Yi collected several difficulties.

Because, the number of vines is relatively large. Xu Yi still collected the kind of thin vines below his thumb.

After going back, Xu Yi helped to sort out a few vines, tie their ends tightly, and leave the rings.

Then, the rest of the weaving work was left to Su Keke himself.

Xu Yi asked Su Keke to weave like a fishing net, and the hammock would be more comfortable to sleep in.

After finishing it, Xu Yi looked at his reddened hands.

This is caused by tearing the vines off the tree with force.

After taking a sip of cold boiled water, Xu Yi wiped the sweat on his face.

"Originally, I wanted to weave the vines, but I found it too much effort to tear the vines off. ”

"Also, there are too many vines to weave a vine house that is big enough for me and Cocoa. ”

"It takes more time to collect and weave vines than it does to cut down trees to build a treehouse. ”

"When I was collecting vines just now, I found that there were many small trees on the opposite riverbank, which were more suitable for building a small wooden house. So, I gave up on the idea of weaving a tree rattan house. ”

As he spoke, Xu Yi came to a place fifty or sixty meters downstream of the area where he was carrying water.

On the opposite side, where the stream and the river converge, small trees grow on both sides of the stream.

"I'm going to cut down this tree and let it fall on the riverbank, and then I can use it as a bridge to go back and forth between the banks. ”

As he spoke, Xu Yi picked up the machete and slashed at the tree he had chosen.

This tree is thicker than Sucoco's waist, so it is still more difficult to cut.

After cutting for a while, Xu Yi's hands were blistered.

Without labor protection gloves, it's such a waste of hands.

Today is the eighth day, and Xu Yi's hands are already a little calloused.

So, after blistering, he still chose to continue cutting trees.

Although the stone knife was sharp, Xu Yi still cut for about twenty minutes before the tree was brought down.

There was a lot of movement from the tree to the ground, and the end was broken.

However, a single-plank bridge appeared on the surface of the river, as Xu Yi had envisioned.

Xu Yi stepped on it and tried it.

It's stable.

So, he went straight up and walked towards the opposite bank.

On the surface of the river, Xu Yi cleared the branches that stood in the way.

Soon, he reached the opposite bank of the river.

In the small stream, the water is clear, and you can see some swimming fish smaller than your fingers, and there are quite a few of them.

When Xu Yi looked at it, he thought about weaving a small ground cage to catch these small fish.

Making cassava flour, wrapping these small fish, and frying them in hot oil will definitely make everyone cry.

"Hey, there's still a snail?"

Xu Yi saw the little black snail, and his eyes couldn't help but light up.

This kind of snail tastes particularly delicious, Xu Yi has eaten it in Su Keke's village, and he has also gone to pick it up with the children in the village.

During the time when he was teaching in the village, Xu Yi still learned a lot from the children in the village.

When the snails are boiled in water, the soup turns green. This soup clears heat and detoxifies, and has a very good effect on liver fire.

"When I've got the house in place, I'll pick up these snails. ”

Xu Yihe said a word to the racket, and then prepared to cut down the small trees on the bank of the creek.

At this time, Xu Yi suddenly saw many bees flying in front of him.

"Honeycomb?"

Xu Yi's eyes lit up, he didn't expect that there were still bees here.

"I hope it's not too far, I'll go ahead and have a look, if I can find honey, Coco will be very happy." ”
