Chapter 58: You Deal with It
After a month of hard work, the new camp was finally built before the harsh winter arrived.
Everyone smiled when they looked at the new camp, which was a replica of an ancient city, which could also be said to be a miniature version of a small city.
"I have a proposal, why don't we give this new camp a name. ”
The vice-captain touched his chin and thought it was a good idea.
Actually, I've already figured out the name.
"I've thought about the name, it can be called Nie Family Village. Mr. Nie is the village head, what do you think?"
"Huh, didn't you say you were the big boss before?"
Xiao Qian was a little unhappy, how domineering this big boss sounded, and the village chief sounded a little cheap.
"I think it's much better to call the village than what to call the village, the village sounds more like a home, and it may be a misfortune for everyone to fall here, but it is not a kind of fate. ”
Nie Chunxian spoke, and naturally no one had an opinion.
"It's just...... It's not good to call Niejia Village. ”
"You're the village chief, you can choose a name. ”
I spread my hands and said it didn't matter.
Nie Chunxian tilted his head and thought about it, what kind of name should be better, it is better to sound warmer.
"This camp is by the waterhole, so I might as well call it Qingshui Village. ”
It doesn't sound like much, but the name is just a title.
"Okay, that's the name. ”
The place to live has been improved, and with ceramics, the quality of life has also improved.
But the real test came, and the heat provided by the fire was no longer enough to sustain our needs.
The fur of the prey caught earlier has been dried, and the smell of the fish has almost dissipated, and it can be used to make clothes.
To be honest, during this period of time, everyone's original clothes have been torn, and the men still feel that it doesn't matter, and the women are a little embarrassed.
Therefore, the fur of the animals is given priority to make clothes for the girls to wear, and the strong bodies of the men can last for a few days.
If it's summer, I think men only need to block the lower half of their bodies, and the key is that it's winter and not summer.
Fortunately, the island is surrounded by sea water on all sides, so it shouldn't snow.
But soon I thought about it too much, and two days later the sky started to start snowing.
"Try on the clothes I made for you. ”
Nie Chunxian handed me a dress made of deerskin, which she herself wore was also made of deerskin, which was a bit like a couple's outfit.
"It's okay, it's quite suitable, I originally thought that this kind of animal skin clothes would feel itchy all over my body, but now I think it's not bad. ”
The original clothes were not discarded, they were all changed to underwear and underwear to wear inside, and the women had an extra pair of safety pants......
"Turn around and I'll take a look. ”
I obediently turned around, and Nie Chunxian reached out to tidy up my new clothes.
"It looks a little tight, I want to make it up for you?"
"No, the animal skin clothes are tough and won't crumble easily. ”
"Whatever you want, by the way, the food in the warehouse is no longer enough, Xiaoqian and the others estimated that they would probably be able to let us live for two or three days. ”
During this time, I took people out hunting a lot, but the decent prey had already hibernated, and seven or eight times out of ten they came empty-handed.
"Right now, animals are hibernating, plants are dying a lot, and wild vegetables are hard to find. ”
"What then?"
If they don't have anything to eat, they will starve to death.
"Don't worry, there's a lot to do. When the animals hibernate, we can go to them, I think they hide in caves or tree hollows. ”
Nie Chunxian sneered and said, "Then aren't we going to disturb other people's dreams." ”
Most of the trees in the forest are bare, and there are very few trees with green leaves.
The pine tree is still green, and there are no pine cones on the tree, which should have been plucked by squirrels.
"We can play a few traps to catch squirrels. ”
This time Nie Chunxian came out with me, and she had to learn how to hunt.
"Is squirrel meat delicious?"
Nie Chunxian was concerned about this question now, if she had been before, she would definitely say, 'Squirrels are so cute!You actually want to eat such a cute animal!'
"I don't know, I haven't eaten a squirrel yet. ”
After walking in the snow for half a day, I found some footprints that looked like fox footprints.
The fox meat is not considered to be delicious, but its fur is a good thing, and it can make a scarf for Nie Chunxian.
Nie Chunxian squatted down and looked at the footprints, which looked like cat footprints.
"This is supposed to be left by the fox, if only we could catch it, but the fox is notoriously cunning, and I am afraid it is not easy to catch. ”
Nie Chunxian touched the footprints on the ground and said with a smile: "You should be more cunning than a fox when you can do it." ”
Smack!
I heard movement, presumably a squirrel had been caught in the trap.
Checking the trap, I found a squirrel, its neck clasped in a lock, hanging from a dry branch lying horizontally.
It had just been inhabited by them, so it wasn't dead and still struggling.
"You take care of it. ”
I handed the dagger to Nie Chunxian, and I asked her to do the work of killing the squirrel.
Although this woman seems to dare to try anything now, I know that the weakness or kindness in her bones still exists.
"You want me to kill it, but I'm not hungry yet, I don't want to eat it. ”
Nie Chunxian looked at the squirrel with some hesitation, in fact, he could have waited for it to freeze to death or dick to death.
"But I'm hungry. ”
Seeing that I was a little insistent, Nie Chunxian had no choice but to take the dagger.
I took the squirrel off the lock, its neck was strangled by the lock and it was already dying, just in time for Nie Chunxian to end its pain.
"The squirrel has been killed, and you can't light a fire here, are you going to eat it raw?"
Nie Chunxian thought of this question and felt that I must be deliberately playing tricks on her and causing her to kill.
"Of course you can't drill wood for fire, but I have a cooler way to start a fire. ”
When I came out, I took a steel pipe the thickness of my little finger, which was used to light the fire.
Seeing me stuffing hay into the steel pipe, Nie Chunxian was a little curious.
"What are you doing here?"
"This is a fire-making technique I learned in the special forces, and today it will be just the two of us, and I will show you it. ”
I'm going to use air friction to remove the fire, which requires a sealed steel pipe and a smooth, solid stick.
The steel pipe is stuffed with hay, and a wooden stick is inserted into the other end, and if you push the wooden stick hard to compress the air inside, the friction generated by the air when it is compressed will become high.
"To be honest, I've used this method once, and I don't know if it will work this time. ”
When everything was ready, I exhaled deeply, holding the steel pipe in my left hand and the stick in my right hand.
The stick pushed hard into the pipe, and the hay stuffed in at the other end emitted a fire.
