The people of the clan were stunned when they saw Mo Lan's fierce appearance, and Yuhe couldn't hold back his laughter, and even Han Che, who was stirring the mud, raised the corners of his mouth for the first time.

Is it that funny?

Mo Lan pouted angrily, snorted, and sat back on the stone beside him, ready to take a breath first.

These orcs have become curious babies! If she says one thing and asks three questions, she will be exhausted to death tomorrow!

"Mo Lan, what are you going to do next?"

Han Che put down the Yuli branch, walked over and half-squatted down, pulled her cold little hand and put it in the palm of his hand.

Feeling that the little hand that was frozen and stiff was wrapped in the temperature of his big palm, and a burst of warmth hit, Mo Lan was suddenly in a good mood, and immediately left the unhappiness just now!

"The plaster is reconciled, and the next step is to build the foundation."

Mo Lan replied.

"What is a foundation?" Han Che then asked.

"Houses need to be built with a solid foundation to be safe. Not to mention this warm land, even in the territory, the firmness of the foundation is not the same as that of not laying the foundation. However, we have few materials, and the foundation can't be completely beaten, just under the beams and columns that support the thatched house! ”

"So the house doesn't collapse?"

After listening to Mo Lan's explanation, Han Ying couldn't help but ask.

Mo Lan immediately replied: "At least it's much stronger than not laying a foundation." In addition, the support should also be more accurate, too much deviation, the force point is displaced, and it is easy to cause instability in the house. Well, theory is not as good as practice, come on! Let's do it to verify the authenticity! ”

Mo Lan didn't explain anymore, stood up and pulled Han Che to the ruins of the collapsed thatched house, and began to direct everyone to rebuild the thatched house.

Under the correct guidance of Mo Lan, the support was made more precisely, and the foundation was made of marl, and the thatched house finally stood after it was built!

"Great! It worked! ”

When everyone saw it, they were all overjoyed.

"Alright, let's build it this way! Mom, Han Che, I'm cold! ”

After some operation, Mo Lan's hands were almost frozen again, and she ran directly to Han Che's side to find comfort.

Han Che immediately put down the materials in his hand and pulled her into his arms.

"It's been too long since you've been out today, I'll send you back to the territory first!"

Han Che hugged Mo Lan tightly, turned around and instructed He Hanying: "You two and your clansmen are stepping up construction, it's getting colder and colder recently, I estimate that the first cold snap is coming!" We'll need to settle our people before the cold snap hits. ”

"Got it, Che! Take Mo Lan back quickly! ”

Yuga saw that Mo Lan's lips were frozen and purple, and hurriedly urged.

Han Che nodded, and just as he was about to leave, Mo Lan in his arms suddenly poked his head out again and said, "Wait, Han Che!" ”

"What's wrong?" Han Che lowered his head and asked.

Mo Lan pushed him away slightly, fumbled around from the animal skin coat for a while, took out a small animal skin bag, and handed it to Han Che.

"What is this?" Han Che asked.

Mo Lan opened the leather bag, and there were scattered white debris inside.

Han Che thought for a moment and suddenly said, "This is what you used to deal with the ground brown bear last time?" ”

"Well, this is saltpeter powder, which can be made **. I stumbled upon some here last time and there should be one around here! You show it to your clansmen, and if you see it, you must help me collect it all!" ”

Han Che took the animal skin bag and raised his voice to call Yuga: "Let everyone pay attention to it, if you see something like this, collect it back to the territory and give it to Mo Lan." ”

Yuga took the animal skin bag and looked at it, and asked suspiciously, "What is this?" What is it for? ”

"It's a fire, it's useful! Yuga, tell the clansmen to be careful when collecting, don't touch the open flame, otherwise it will explode, remember? ”

Mo Lan instructed uneasily.

"Okay, I got it!"

Yuga nodded cautiously, and then put away the animal skin bag.

Han Che sent Mo Lan back to the tribal territory, and patrolled back and forth between the water source and the warm land to ensure that the fortifications on both sides could be successfully completed.

On the other side, after Mo Lan returned to the territory to warm up, she went to find Su Yi non-stop and asked her to take her to Cangdong to look for needle willow.

Now that the cold season has come, keeping warm is the first priority, thatched huts can withstand wind and snow, but going out to hunt for food depends on clothes!

Although animal skins can protect against the cold, they are not serious clothing after all. And the smell of blood was very strong, and Mo Lanlao felt like a wild man when he wore it.

She'd wanted to remodel her outfit for a long time, but she couldn't find the time. It would be great if the needle willow could really be spun into clothes!

When the time comes, she can combine animal skins with needle willow cloth to make more beautiful and warm clothes.

Happily planning, in the blink of an eye, Su Yi had already taken her to a warehouse dedicated to storing needle willows. Mo Lan walked over to check, and sure enough, he saw that the needle willow was like a needle as Xiaoxiao said, thin and long, and it was hard to the touch, but the texture was very brittle, and it broke when he touched it!

Can this thing really make clothes? Mo Lan was really a little skeptical.

"Mo Lan, what are you looking for this needle willow? Is it cold in the crypt? Although this thing doesn't smell when it burns, it's not as resistant to burning as Eury Branches, if you want to keep warm, I'll let Xilu send you some Eury Branches! ”

Su Yi saw that Mo Lan's hands and feet were stiff from the cold, and couldn't help but pat her hands lovingly.

Mo Lan hurriedly waved his hand and said, "Yimu, it's not cold in the crypt. I am looking for this needle willow for another purpose, not as firewood. ”

"Another use? What else can this needle willow do? ”

Su Yi was stunned when he heard this, and couldn't help but ask suspiciously.

Mo Lan thought for a while and said, "Yimu, I want to try to use this needle of willow yarn to weave cloth and make clothes. But I need some tools, and you're going to have to give me a hand, don't you think? ”

"Spun weaving? Mo Lan, you're not kidding, are you? ”

Su Yi was taken aback, she didn't expect Mo Lan to say such a thing.

Mo Lan's eyes lit up and said, "Yimu, it seems that you are no stranger to spinning and weaving, have you ever seen someone do this?" ”

Su Yi shook his head and said: "I haven't seen it, but it is recorded in the sacred scriptures of the wolf clan that in the big forest of Bros outside the Kumo Snow Plain, there is a tribal group called the Blue Lion Clan, which can make clothes from kudzu linen, and the clothes made are light and practical, and the effect of keeping out the cold is also very good." ”

Mo Lan nodded after hearing this, and said: "That's right, kudzu can indeed make clothes, but it's a pity that Kumo Snow Field is cold all year round, and there is no kudzu growing at all." However, after boiling in boiling water, this needle willow has the same effect as kudzu. So I wanted to try to see if I could make it replace kudzu hemp and spin thread to make clothes, so that the people could better protect themselves from the cold. ”

"Needle willow instead of kudzu? Can this work? ”

Su Yi was still very skeptical. In fact, I don't blame her, but this needle willow is simply incomparable to the soft animal skin. Making clothes, unimaginable!

However, Mo Lan smiled and said, "This thing doesn't look good, maybe it's really useful!" If it doesn't work, will you know if you try it? ”

After that, Mo Lan rolled up his sleeves and said, "Come on, I'll try it first, if I can soften this hard needle willow!" ”

"Softening the needles? In what way? ”

Sue wondered.

Mo Lan smiled and said, "It's easy to say, boiled!" ”
