Chapter 51: Settling In
"However, how can we improve the strength of our body? Do you want to eat something as good as the young beast said again?" Li Ji, who was still happy, then fell into doubts again. Pen @ fun @ pavilion wWw. ļ½ļ½ļ½Uļ½Eć ļ½ļ½ļ½ļ½
"No, the pain of being lava flowing through the whole body is too uncomfortable, and if you are not careful, you will be distracted by the medicinal power of the Lingzhi, and you will become a fool if you don't die. Yesterday I was lucky to carry it, but if I do it again, I'm afraid I won't be so lucky. Besides, the other half of the Lingzhi has also been eaten by the young beast. ā
The young beast said at the time that the Lingzhi was very precious, and it didn't look like it was very easy to encounter, even if he took 10,000 steps back and really encountered the Lingzhi again, Li Ji felt that he might not have the determination to cross the lava lake anymore. As for asking the young beast to help find other substitutes, in view of the potential of the young beast itself, Li Ji felt that it was better to forget it, and wait until his physique was as strong as the young beast, after all, what the young beast was looking for was based on its own hypothetical benefit, as for Li Ji to bear it, sorry! That is not in its consideration for the time being.
After thinking about it, Li Ji felt that although he had found another way to improve the power of his blood and qi, he found that he couldn't take this road, and he couldn't let himself be beaten like a sandbag, and then he could not be beaten like a sandbag, and then eat the dried meat in the space ring to recover, and slowly improve his ability to resist blows in repeated abuse, so as to improve his physical strength! They don't know what it means to stop at the point, and they are thinking about taking advantage of your illness to kill you every minute, the danger factor is too high to afford to hurt. As for letting the young beast, the little guy who is his companion, be a thug, Li Ji's thought flashed in his mind, and he gave up, and now the ignorant young beast is curious about new things, in case he accidentally obsesses with this feeling of abusing him, then Li Ji will be miserable, in the face of the young beast, he doesn't even have the strength to resist. So this road is broken, at least for now, Li Ji has no way to improve his physical strength through shortcuts.
Unexpectedly, he was happy for a long time, but in the end he still returned to the original point, Li Ji was a little inexplicably sad, God really wouldn't open a crack in the door for him at the same time, and then open a skylight for him. However, it is also a gain to know that improving the strength of the body is beneficial to the power of blood and qi, which is better than knowing nothing about it, and this also shows that Li Ji is getting more and more aware of the power of blood and qi, from strange to familiar, which is an improvement.
The smile on Li Ji's face had already fallen, and he glanced at the young beast that was looking up at him cutely, half-squatted down, and stroked the young beast's head.
"Let's go, go back to the cave!"
Li Ji took back the silver short knife from the space ring, and then felt the vigorous blood and qi power that filled his body again, bent down, and grabbed the piece of wood he chose to make a big bed with both hands, and the blood and qi in the meridians accelerated slightly, and the power of blood and qi increased out of thin air made Li Ji easily lift it above his head. With a diameter of nearly three meters, Li Ji was destined to not be able to carry it like normal, so he could only hold it on top of his head, and then support it with his two hands.
Li Jituo carried the timber that was more than four meters long, and led the young beast that was still unclear about the purpose of this trip to the direction of the cave.
In fact, Li Ji was not very far from the cave, and he had the power of flesh and blood, so it didn't take long for him to return to the cave.
......
At the entrance of the cave, Li Ji casually got the wood on the ground, the wood that was more than four meters long and nearly three meters in diameter fell to the ground, Li Ji could feel the ground under his feet tremble twice, and the fine stones bounced up, which shows that the weight of the wood is different.
This scene made Li Ji feel a sense of pride in his heart. He walked all the way with the wood in his hand, and there was no trace of fatigue except for the slight ruddy appearance on his face. Once upon a time, as an otaku, although he had fantasized about pulling mountains and rivers, he would never have thought that he could really do this.
It's just that now is not the time to sigh, Li Ji thought about it, and took out the other two pieces of wood in the space ring, and then took out a two-handed giant sword.
It is definitely not good to pay attention to carpentry with a two-handed giant sword, but there is no way, Li Ji, who does not have a carpenter's special tools in his hands, can only settle, anyway, he does not plan to improve his work, as long as he can achieve basic functions, it is enough.
Li Ji's first object was the wood that was to be used as a big bed, he held the giant sword tightly in both hands, and the blood qi in his body accelerated slightly under his control, and Li Ji, who took a deep breath, was blessed by the power of blood and qi in his body, and he slashed at the wood is wild.
In the flying of wood chips, the originally round wood gradually formed a small plane on the upward side of the wood under Li Ji's stormy attack, and the area of the plane was slowly expanding.
After Li Ji slashed wildly for more than ten minutes, a big bed in his eyes was hot. This bed looks a little back to basics, because the big bed still looks like a piece of half-finished wood. Li Ji just cut one side of the wood to a width close to the diameter of the wood to form a plane, and that plane is the so-called big bed that Li Ji used to sleep.
Li Ji was very satisfied with his craftsmanship, and nodded a few times without the slightest sense of shame. Then he decided to continue his efforts, and with his two-handed greatsword in his hand, he stepped towards the wood that was the barrel.
The difficulty of making the barrel is a little higher than that of the big bed, and it needs to be a little more careful, and it requires the control of the attention channel, unlike the big bed that can be done with a sharp cut. Therefore, Li Jian first used the tip of the giant sword to press against the end of the barrel mouth, and the center of the wooden circle made a preliminary mechanical rotation.
During the rotation, a groove gradually formed on one side of the mouth of the wooden barrel, and Li Ji continued to expand the space of this groove, and when he felt that it was about the same, he replaced the giant sword with the silver short knife. After all, quite speaking, the giant sword can only be done to initially take out a conical space in the barrel, if you want to continue to expand the space, you need to replace it with a silver short knife, the two-handed giant sword is difficult for the next meticulous work, at least Li Ji feels that he doesn't have that skill, in case he accidentally pierces the bottom of the barrel, then the previous efforts will be in vain, so for the sake of insurance, Li Ji replaced the silver short knife and began a long time of fine grinding.
The young beast on the side crawled on the ground bored, watching Li Ji work blindly by himself, and it began to fall asleep when it was bored. In fact, when Li Ji was slashing the big bed before, the young beast was still full of vitality chasing those flying sawdust back and forth, which seemed to be endlessly fun. However, Li Ji's methods of processing wooden barrels were not so wild and rude, and not a single piece of sawdust flew out for half a day, and the young beast was bored and idle.
After more than an hour of tossing and turning, the barrel was finally completed when he thought it was possible. The reason why he thinks it is okay is because the inside of the barrel is not as smooth as the outside of the bark that has been peeled, but there are still pimples in many places, either a little concave here or a little protruding there, and it still looks miserable. It's just that Li Ji, as a pragmatist, doesn't care about this, as long as the barrel can have enough space to hold water.
After this busy work, it was noon in the blink of an eye, and after Li Ji barely completed his task, his blood and qi power was also exhausted. At this time, the hunger pang hit, and after moving the things to the cave, Li Ji began to burn the fire and barbecue meat for lunch.
After Li Ji and the young beast ate a lot of meat, he found that his meal had become a little bigger, but these problems were then left behind by him, he believed that with his current strength, even without the help of the young beast, he could hunt those first-level demonic beasts, of course, the premise is not to be beaten by the group, because self-confidence is like Li Ji, and he will not be able to get out of the shadow of being beaten by the group for a while.
Let the young beast extinguish the fire, Li Ji, who was full of food and drink, felt that he was in good spirits now, and the blood rage that started in the morning was not exhausting his spiritual power under the extreme circumstances, so Li Ji, who felt that there was still time, put the newly made wooden barrel into the space ring, called the young beast, and asked it to lead the way to get water.
On the way to get water, I still saw the footprints of many demonic beasts passing by, and even found a battlefield, but the demonic beasts on both sides had already dispersed, leaving a mess for Li Ji to guess.
There were occasionally some birds flying in the air above his head, but these birds were not as big as the giant bird that Li Ji met chasing him on the first day he came to this world, and the largest of these birds spread their wings about three meters. Li Ji didn't know if they had seen him, but in his mind, his whereabouts should have been perceived by those birds, and he still knew the sharpness of the birds' eyes when he had seen the animal world. So Li Ji guessed that the birds might just not be interested in him.
Li Ji had already had the experience of fetching water once, so after coming to the stream, he first filled the bucket with water, then put the space ring back, and then returned to the cave after a simple bath.
The distance to fetch water was long, and it took a long time to go back and forth, and when Li Ji returned to the cave, the sun was almost setting. Not hungry for the time being, he took out the bucket in the space ring and found a stable place to place it.
Looking at the big bucket full of water, according to normal calculations, it was enough for Li Ji to drink for a month, because he had no other way to use water except for drinking water and washing his face slightly.
Looking at the bucket of water, Li Ji thought about it, and felt that he should use soil to burn some ceramics out, otherwise he would have to eat barbecue all the time in the future, although the smell of that thing was attractive, but he would get tired of eating too much, and he always ate barbecue, I don't know if it will cause damage to the body, so it is best to burn some ceramics out and cook something with water to eat.
Now that he had an idea, Li Ji immediately took action. I dug some yellow mud on the soil slope outside the cave, and then happily took it to the cave, found a stone with a clean plane, put the mud on it, stirred and kneaded it with water. After Li Ji felt that the mud was reconciled, he began to pinch the embryo shape with his hands.
After a while, a clay embryo that was not round and square, like a jar, and a little nondescript appeared, with Li Ji's efforts. Then, Li Ji, who couldn't wait, immediately called to the side and watched the young beast playing with mud burn him.
"Burn it with fire?" the young beast confirmed, looking at the embryo of earth that towered over the stone.
"Yes! Burn it with fire, burn it with fire. Li Ji replied affirmatively.
Although the young beast didn't understand why Li Ji ordered it to do this, he could still obey Li Ji's order unconditionally.
So in Li Ji's loud startled "I'm", the young beast that opened its mouth spewed out a fire that Li Ji had not expected, and the raging fire covered the earth embryo several meters in a radius.
