Chapter 35: It's time to get a toothbrush
After eating, Xu Yi began to look at the bottom of the barrel.
He couldn't sleep at this time, just enough to cut the main body of the barrel to the right height.
After Su Keke was full, he sat next to Xu Yi and began today's study.
She loves learning and finds it very enjoyable and rewarding to learn new Chinese characters.
For advanced education, Xu Yi's philosophy is different from person to person.
Su Keke is talented and interested, so he still supports her to learn ahead of time.
If a child is very interested and talented in learning, then she should support him and guide him.
Otherwise, you're killing his interest and talent. In the future, he will most likely have no interest in learning new knowledge.
After teaching 5 Chinese characters, Su Keke wrote carefully on the side.
It took Xu Yi half an hour to cut the upper and lower ends of the barrel flat.
Then, after chopping a part of the depression in the middle with an axe, Xu Yi shoveled some charcoal fire in the depression area.
Then he went and cut down a thigh-thick tree.
After cutting it, Xu Yi split the wood in half.
Then, after boiling it in with charcoal, you can make two simple bowls.
The part of the bowl can be made by Xu Yi himself in the second half of the night.
Xu Yi built three bonfires, and even if an animal attacked, he didn't dare to attack directly.
So, he was ready to go to bed first.
He hadn't slept since 12 o'clock last night and was already very sleepy.
"Coco, Daddy went to bed first. If there is a situation, wake up my father as soon as possible, and if there is no situation, wake up my father on time at 12 o'clock. ”
Xu Yi and Su Keke explained, and then lay down on the hammock.
"Because the vines are still relatively thick, they are still quite hard. ”
Xu Yi got out of the hammock, then took out a bundle of snake skins and spread it on top of the hammock.
"Well, it's much more comfortable that way. ”
Xu Yi closed his eyes with satisfaction and fell asleep at a fast speed.
Su Keke grabbed her spear from the moment Xu Yi lay down, but she didn't stop writing.
The forest is still relatively quiet, and there is no animal cry nearby.
Still, she would occasionally look up to see if there was anything dangerous.
The charcoal fire in the barrel was still burning, and some white smoke was coming out.
If it is not blown, the burning rate of the charcoal fire is actually relatively limited.
Especially in this jungle, there is no wind, and then it sinks into it, and there is even less oxygen.
Xu Yi did not explain this matter to Su Keke.
Because, I am worried that it will burn Su Coco.
Therefore, Su Keke was very sensible and didn't touch it.
She practiced the words for more than an hour, and after she felt that she had mastered them, she wrote the five words she learned yesterday a few times.
Today, it's day 5.
Su Keke has begun to get used to spending the night in the jungle, and has also begun to get used to the darkness around him.
In the blink of an eye, it was 12 o'clock at night.
So, Su Keke went to wake Xu Yi up.
Xu Yi woke up, and his spirit was still very good.
Because this hammock is quite comfortable to sleep in, the quality is also much better.
After Su Keke lay down in the hammock, he shook for a while before gradually falling asleep.
Xu Yi took the two pieces of wood that were going to be used to make the wooden bowl, and then put some charcoal on it.
Xu Yi took off his clothes and began to fan the wind with his clothes.
In this way, the charcoal fire in the bucket and wooden bowl will burn more fully, and the speed will naturally increase.
After the rice bowl is burned to a certain extent, Xu Yi needs to use the dinosaur front leg bones he picked up before to blow the charcoal fire.
In this way, it can be burned in the direction he envisions, burning to the depth and width he needs.
In one night, Xu Yi burned out the rough shape of the two bowls.
Tomorrow, when the lunch break is held, the coke part will be chiseled off with a stone chisel, and it will be a wooden bowl that can be used.
Just seven o'clock in the morning, Su Keke woke up.
"Why did you wake up so early today?"
Xu Yi saw Su Keke get up, and asked with some curiosity.
"Uncomfortable?"
Su Keke shook his head and said, "No, I just woke up." ”
Xu Yi nodded, thinking that it might be that after so many days, he slept better last night and recovered better.
"Then you come and brush your teeth, Dad grinds some charcoal powder, which can be used to brush your teeth. ”
I haven't brushed my teeth properly for so many days, and Xu Yi feels that this is more damaging to his teeth.
So, he grinds some very fine toner out and can use it to brush his teeth.
"Charcoal powder?"
"This, you can also brush your teeth?"
Su Keke glanced at Xu Yi, as if to say: Why am I a little unconvinced?
"Well, the ancients used toner to clean their teeth in the past. Of course, after cleaning, some charcoal powder will be left in your mouth. ”
"We don't have anything else to do with brushing our teeth, so that's the only way to use it. ”
If there are other options, Xu Yi doesn't want to choose this.
It's fine when you have a toothbrush, but if you don't have charcoal for a toothbrush, it's even harder to dispose of the toner.
Su Keke nodded, and then dipped his fingers in a little charcoal powder in his hand.
"Here, brush your teeth and rinse your mouth with this water. ”
Xu Yi handed the wooden bowl that was still full of charcoal to Su Keke, and then he also dipped a little toner on his fingers and began to clean his teeth.
After brushing for a few minutes, Xu Yi couldn't feel the tartar anymore, and his mouth became a little refreshed.
Then, he took out his phone and took a picture of his teeth.
"It's still quite dark, and without a toothbrush, it's hard to clean the toner particles in the gum area. ”
"Looks like we're going to have to make a toothbrush. ”
Because they have not found a source of water, they have not built their own shelter.
If you have a bowl or a toothbrush, you don't have time to make it.
Xu Yi had a hunch that they would definitely be able to find a water source today.
Because he had an intuition that told Xu Yi that he was already very close to the water source.
Since the water source is very close, it is possible to find a suitable place to set up camp near the water source.
With the camp, it is natural to make something that improves the quality of life.
He didn't want himself and Coco to live in this parallel world like a wild man.
After washing, the two of them ate the rest of the snake meat.
After eating 9 minutes full, the two of them are still very satisfied.
After packing up his things, Xu Yi set off with Lu Ke.
Xu Yi's spear was also handed over to Su Keke, because in addition to being the snakeskin in the basket, a hammock rolled up was also added to it, and the overall height had exceeded Xu Yi's head.
The bucket was tied with vines and straddled diagonally.
He also needed to clear the way with a machete, so there was no extra hand to hold the spear.
The two of them entered the new jungle and started the sixth day of coming to this parallel world.
