Chapter 14: The Cubs
When he returned to the camp, it was already evening, and after surviving this day, Liu Zhi finally completed these two road signs, which were due north and northeast of the gathering place, but the distance was very short, only five or six kilometers.
In his plan, there should be a road mark of about twenty kilometers in each of the eight directions, and it is obvious that this task is very difficult, and he will definitely not be able to complete it before awakening alone.
This is Liu Zhi's biggest headache, the first few days after the crossing, is the fastest and most effective period to increase the population, don't save as many people as possible, gather enough special awakened people, and wait for everyone to be separated or die, there is nowhere to find it.
Liu Zhi had met a tribe in his previous life, and it had been more than half a year since he had traveled, and the number of people had exceeded three hundred, and there were more than 100 awakened people, but there were no special awakened people with "ore detection" skills, so iron tools were not popularized, and life was very hard.
"Two lines a day, it only takes three days to get it, and if you don't take them with you, you should be able to save a day."
"Let's go alone tomorrow, at most take Shaochuan, and save one day is one day."
"It's just that the planks have to be smaller, otherwise they won't fit in the bag, and it's too hard to hold."
Liu Zhi secretly made a decision, he really couldn't find anyone to help, although there were two people in the camp who had experience in jungle survival besides him, but they didn't have much courage, it was okay to walk around, it was difficult to say if they went far, and they couldn't plan a safe route.
As for Fang Shaochuan and the others, they could only help with the planks.
While eating, Yanagi noticed that some people had already used homemade chopsticks, which were the same length but different sizes, barely beating the branches.
In addition to chopsticks, some people make a few rough wooden barrels, build two vines, and a wooden stick, and then go to the river to fetch water.
The women, who knew no carpentry, began to weave straw ropes, intending to make straw mats, straw bags, straw mats, and the like, to which the winger was delighted to be so eager for a pair of shoes, even if only straw sandals.
Ye Yun also put down the figure of a big star, leaned over to learn humbly, her urgency was similar to that of a winger, she wanted a grass skirt.
Because Liu Zhi was not there, only three people dared to go into the water to fish today, and the number of catches was not much, only three, it is said that because the fish was too big, Wang Yimin did not knock on a stick, and it happened to fall at his feet, and he was almost not bitten, and the other two were also taken aback, and they did not dare to try again.
After dinner, Liu Zhi continued to practice the Qi Conduction Technique as usual, and everyone did not disturb him, Hu Kan's Hu Kan, resting and resting, the night passed quickly.
The next morning, Liu Zhi sawed out five wooden planks, asked Ye Yun to write English on each one, called Fang Shaochuan, and left the camp together, this time the target was due west.
Because there were only two of them, Liu Zhi's speed had increased a lot, almost trotting all the way, and only when he encountered some special circumstances, such as the traces left by wild beasts, wild fruits and vegetables that could be eaten, or plants with strange effects, would he stop to observe or collect, and explain to Fang Shaochuan a little.
Of course, his so-called explanations are very vague, only personal speculation, not in a firm tone, everything has to go back and test it to know.
The two walked all the way, and unconsciously walked for more than two hours, Fang Shaochuan was already quite tired, short of breath, and his collar was also soaked with sweat, Liu Zhi saw his appearance, looked up at the sky, there were about two hours before noon, and it was time to return, otherwise he would not be able to catch lunch.
As for how to calculate time and determine direction, Liu Zhi judged according to the sun that set first, which is the real revolving star of this planet, and many astronomers in previous lives called this phenomenon a "false double star system".
That is to say, the planet under your feet revolves around two suns, but in fact, it is this planet and the first sun, and at the same time revolves around the second sun, which is a supergiant star, with a mass far greater than the first sun, so the orbit of the star will become similar to the orbit of a planet, revolving around a large star, and there will be no intertwined orbits, and the orbits of the outer planets can also become stable.
According to accurate calculations, the time of one rotation of the planet is 27 hours, 02 minutes and 28 seconds, and the time of one revolution is 587.94 earth days, with 147 days in a quarter and 49 days in each month.
This astronomical knowledge must be mastered by every awakened warrior before the advent of timekeeping tools, and the time must be estimated to a very small range in order to deal with the battles that may occur in various situations.
Liu Zhi nailed the road signs, wrote the words, drew the arrows, and was about to beckon Fang Shaochuan to rush back, when he turned his head to look, and found that this kid had run away at some point, and was squatting under a tree, and turned back to beckon to himself from time to time, his face was full of joy and excitement, but he didn't dare to shout, as if he had seen something new.
Because Fang Shaochuan's body stopped, Liu Zhi couldn't see what he found, walked forward more than ten steps, suddenly, he saw a string of shallow paw prints on the mud beside the road, faintly visible, paw prints are very large, about thirty centimeters long, nearly twenty centimeters wide, a little inspection, Liu Zhi couldn't help but be awe-inspiring, and quickly ran to Fang Shaochuan's side, sure enough, there were two kitten-like cubs in the tree hole, all green, naïve and cute, and he didn't feel scared when he saw the two, and looked at them with round eyes, quite curious.
"Why aren't they afraid of us?" Fang Shaochuan asked in a low voice.
Liu Zhi rolled his eyes and said angrily: "You prodigy, right, you know you are scared when you are born?" ”
"Just born?" Fang Shaochuan was pleasantly surprised: "Then can we take it back and raise it?" Maybe you can still hunt when you raise it. ”
"But you can, but you can only take one head." After Liu Zhi finished speaking, he didn't wait for him to choose, picked up one head and stuffed it into his arms: "Just this one, it looks stronger."
"Why? The two of them were obviously born by the same mother, and if they want to raise them, they should be raised together, how pitiful it is to leave one here, isn't it......" Fang Shaochuan found that after the kitten in the cave saw that his companion was taken away, he kept whining, his eyes looked very innocent, and he couldn't bear it for a while.
"You took both ends away, aren't you afraid that the will find you?" Liu Zhidao.
"Take away a head and don't look for the?" Fang Shaochuan asked.
", one less head might just be weird, can you not be crazy when it's all gone? It's possible to chase us to our camp with a smell. Liu Zhidao.
"Then let's go." Fang Shaochuan got up decisively and walked quickly towards the way he came.
