Chapter 82: An ominous premonition
"That's great." Bernie jumped excitedly, the bitter cold of winter is their nightmare, if it can be solved, plus such food as spring bamboo shoots. Winter is not so terrible for them.
"Xiaoxiao, is what you said true?" Millie asked eagerly, as if she was sure of something.
"Hmm." Zhong Xuyao nodded, "As long as there is cloth, the problem will be relatively simple." ”
If they only wear animal skins, they can survive, which means that they have a good ability to resist cold, even if they are frozen to death, they are a minority. If you add a down jacket, a silk jacket. Coupled with quilts, shoes, animal skins, and suede, the warmth index will definitely rise in a straight line, at least, not to freeze to death.
Hearing her accurate answer, the eyes of the others were also filled with some joy.
Bernie quietly approached Zhong Xuyao: "Xiaoxiao, do you have any style of cloth they wear there?" ”
"This ......" Zhong Xuyao showed a look of embarrassment, "Under normal circumstances, there is, but, as you know, they can all transform and become bigger." There is no way to change the size of the clothes. ”
Bernie wasn't discouraged by this, "Well, there is. ”
Zhong Xuyao hesitated for a moment and nodded: "Hmm." ”
Considering that they would conjure wings at any time, Zhong Xuyao could only refer to some clothes such as robes. Add a waist seal in the middle. Wear it on a regular basis, but when you need wings, you can pull down your upper body clothes and hang them around your waist. Of course, these can only deal with the primary transformation, and it will not work if it transforms into a two-winged white tiger.
"Xiaoxiao, thank you." Bernie smirked with a crooked eye.
"Want to make clothes for Bout?" Zhong Xuyao
"Shhhh Bernie
"......" Zhong Xuyao hooked the corners of her mouth slightly, with the ears of an orc, she really didn't think that Bernie's words just now could be hidden from Bout.
As they spoke, the others returned.
Under the leadership of Barron, the witch elder slowly came to the meeting place.
Wu Lao carried a basket on his back, which was also filled with softball-sized cocoons.
"Elder Wu." Bernie got up from the hide, ran to the Witch Old's side, and took the basket off her back.
"Thank you." Wu Lao smiled gently.
"Elder Wu, just leave these things to us, you don't need them." Bernie grumbled.
"There is no reason to only let you do things. I'm still young, and it's not like I can't walk. Elder Wu patted the back of Bernie's hand.
"Hmph, Elder Wu, you always say that you are small, you yourself are not the same. This! Whatever! See! Outside! "Bernie
"You kid." Wu Lao
"Bernie is right, you just need to sit here, and leave the rest to our juniors." Zhong Xuyao was also helping on the side.
Wu Lao is over 50 years old, and she is also the oldest woman Zhong Xuyao has ever seen. In times like these, the age of 50 is a symbol of longevity. Not to mention that the other party is the identity of the witch elder, just this age is enough to make people respectable.
"That's right, Elder Wu, you're so old, what if you ...... Hmm...... "Nikita."
"Nikita, shut up." Bernie pounced on Nikita and covered her mouth.
Nikita struggled, but did not break away, and had to give up resistance.
Bernie snorted coldly, and then put his hand down.
"I see, what are you doing so excitedly." Nikita wiped her mouth unpleasantly, "Your hands stink." ”
"You're talking nonsense." Bernie
"It stinks." Nikita
Zhong Xuyao smiled and helped Wu Lao to sit down on the side, for the quarrel between Bernie and Nikita, she has become commonplace these days.
"These two children still quarrel as soon as they meet." Wu Lao
"Let them be, they won't be angry anyway." Zhong Xuyao had a smile in his eyes.
Wu Lao also smiled kindly.
"Wu Lao, Xiaoxiao invented a kind of clothing, saying that it can be worn in winter, it is very warm, even orcs can wear it." Ellen reported to the Witch Elder .
She knew that what Wu Lao cared about most was the children of the tribe and the future of the tribe, and with this kind of good news, she also wanted to tell her as soon as possible. Although she did not know the accuracy of the news. However, so far, there is nothing that Zhong Xuyao can't do. She naturally believed.
"Oh? Xiaoxiao, are the clothes you make warmer than animal skins? "Wu Lao
"Forehead......" Zhong Xuyao scratched his head embarrassedly: "Actually, I haven't worn animal skins either, and we don't recommend using fur or anything like that in our hometown." ”
"Don't wear this? So how did you spend the winter? Bernie exclaimed.
In winter, the people of the tribe must be wrapped in animal skins, otherwise they will freeze to death. She couldn't imagine how she could survive the winter without hides.
"We usually have down jackets, padded clothes, sweaters, thermal underwear, jackets, etc., and of course, thick quilts are indispensable. Besides, if it's more than 20 degrees below zero, you have to live on the big kang. Zhong Xuyao gave examples one by one.
Every time Zhong Xuyao said one, the people present were confused, except for the sweater in the middle, they understood, and the others were confused.
Zhong Xuyao didn't expect them to understand, they hadn't been in contact with it after all, she smirked: "In the future, I will find a way to make it, but it may not be too good-looking." ”
"If we can make it, we are very satisfied." The Witch Elder let out a long breath.
"Xiaoxiao, did you wear these to play in the snow before?" Bernie wondered.
"yes. We don't have a lot of snow there though. Zhong Xuyao said regretfully.
"Oh." Bernie
"Xiaoxiao, what is the quilt and the big kang?" Wu Lao
Other things, when I heard it, were the types of clothes, but the quilt and the big kang didn't know much about it.
"The quilt is similar to your animal skin, and when it covers your body, it is relatively light and does not smell. The big kang is a little troublesome. Zhong Xuyao's eyes rolled, and suddenly, a flash of inspiration, "To put it simply, people sleep on top of a large stone pot." If it's too cold, add a fire underneath. It's warm this way. ”
"Ah, that's not cooked." Bernie's eyes widened.
The exaggerated temperature of the stone pot, if people really sleep on it, it is estimated that it will be boiled into stew like meat.
"So, it's just something like that. When cooking something in a stone pot, isn't it very warm on top? Zhong Xuyao gestured.
"It seems to be." Bernie
After Zhong Xuyao's explanation, everyone present had a concept of the big kang.
"Xiaoxiao, this kind of big kang, will you do it?" Wu Lao
"There is a shortage of materials right now. Wait until I figure out how to get the materials and tools out. "Zhong Xuyao
"Okay." Wu Lao's eyes had bent into crescent moons. If things are really as Zhong Xuyao said, then the problem of keeping warm in winter will be solved. The next thing is to solve the problem of eating.
