In the morning, it was still Xiao Wu who woke up Liu Qing, this little guy seemed to have developed this habit, he didn't scream when he was hungry, as long as he was hungry, he leaned on Liu Qing vigorously, and when Liu Qing picked him up, he kept licking Liu Qing's face, as if he particularly enjoyed the sound of the barbs on his little tongue rubbing against the beard on Liu Qing's face. It is said that Liu Qing has not had a haircut and shave for more than half a month, the thick stubble looks very masculine, and the hair has grown to cover the eyebrows.

This feeling made him a little unhappy, he used to have a flat head almost every day, and his beard was shaved and smooth. As soon as he thought of his hair and beard, he suddenly felt a little itchy on his body, it was time to take a bath! It was the first time that he had not taken a bath for such a long time, and the clothes on his body were also very dirty, Liu Qing peeled fruit and fed Xiao Wu and himself, while looking at his body, a piece of soil, a gray-green grass juice color, all of which had been stained in the past half a month.

He didn't change his clothes, and if he did, he would probably be naked. And when he committed the crime and fled for his life, it was the golden autumn season, and it should be late October, and the weather has gradually become cooler, so it is not suitable to go bare-chested. He knows very well that the most important thing in the current situation besides food and water is to stay healthy, which is more important than anything else, if he accidentally catches a cold and fever or something, he may kill himself.

However, you can take a bath without washing, wash your hair, get a haircut, and trim your beard should be fine. The embers of the fire had not yet been extinguished, Liu Qing added some dry firewood on it, and when the fine firewood met the charcoal fire, a puff of green smoke soon rose, Liu Qing hurriedly squatted down and blew air on the fire. After a while, the spark rose and ignited the fine wood on it, and Liu Qing added some coarse wood to it, and the fire gradually grew bigger.

Because the space inside the cave is not large, and after adding a door, the ventilation conditions have not become so good, so Liu Qing did not dare to put the fire in the cave. Instead, a simple stove was built on the right side of the entrance with a few large stones, and the fire was inside the stone pile. There is no gap in the fire slope above the fire. After the fire started, Liu Qing moved a bunch of branches, simply set up a shelf next to the fire, and dragged the large piece of dinosaur's hind legs to the fire. Carrying a dagger, he cut it carefully one by one.

According to his own feeling, the climate zone he is in should be near the temperate zone and subtropics, although the weather is not as hot as in summer, but the raw meat still can't be left for too long, such as the tiger leg, which has only been left for three days to taste. After all, this dinosaur leg has only been left for a day, and it is still very fresh, so he has to cut off the meat as soon as possible, roast it dry, and make it into jerky, which will last much longer.

Dinosaurs had a strange meat quality, neither as well-defined as chicken, nor as lean as pork. Dinosaurs were large in size and had large muscle fibers, each of which was the thickness of a finger and looked like one by one, but could be separated. What's more interesting is that dinosaurs don't distinguish much between lean and fatty meat, unlike pork, where fat stratification is obvious. Dinosaurs had very little fat under their skin, but there were many white lumps of fat between the muscles. Liu Qing doesn't understand biology and doesn't know what this structure is called, he only feels that when he ate these meats yesterday, he felt very refreshed, better than any meat he had eaten before, and the only flaw was that there was no salt taste.

The pieces of meat were cut into almost uniform slices by him, and then spread out on the simple stand one by one, and less than half of it was cut, and the simple stand could not be placed at all. Liu Qing had no choice but to stop, and simply found a few longer wooden sticks, peeled them, sharpened one end, and inserted the cut meat directly, leaving a little gap in the middle, a stick can wear about ten pieces, and after the string is skewered, it leans directly against the fire, saving a lot of trouble.

When the meat is grilled, it is not cooked, but only the meat is grilled into jerky. Originally, he wanted to directly use the long spikes he pulled out yesterday to skewer meat, but when he went to get it, he saw the rattan that bound the spikes, and suddenly changed his mind. He didn't dare to guarantee that there would be any poison or anything like this spike, and if there were, wouldn't it be his own death.

After cleaning up these, Liu Qing went outside the cave. It's still raining outside, but it's much lighter than last night. The sky looked gloomy and gray, and the leaves in the mountains and forests were constantly shaking, and the raindrops were falling up and dripping down. Liu Qing's eyes lit up, a small tree in front of him was good, what he saw was a position of about ten meters in front of the entrance of the cave, the entrance of the cave was a small open space, there were too many stones on the ground, only some weeds, and now the tall grass covering the entrance of the cave was made by dinosaurs, and the open space seemed larger.

Liu Qing picked up a large leaf on the ground, covered it on his head, held a sapper shovel in his right hand, and walked towards the small tree not far away. This small tree is long and straight, probably trying to jump up, so that it can grab more sunlight, and the thickness is just enough for Liu Qing's hand to hold.

The sapper shovel was placed on the ground, pulling the small tree and shaking it, the elasticity was good, and soon, the small tree turned into a wooden stick in Liu Qing's hand. Take the two-meter-long stick back to the hole, and after removing the skin, the stick has become thinner and more comfortable to hold. Compared with the length of the stick, he cut off a piece of soft rattan, and then folded the two ends in half, found a point, and the stick was divided into two by him, each section is about one meter long, and the two ends are trimmed to become two round-headed wooden sticks.

Then use the soft vine to find the center point of the stick, and use the dagger to make a mark on it. Liu Qing tried to hold both ends and tried to bend it, but he couldn't bend it at all. What can I do?

After thinking about it, Liu Qing came up with a good method, roasting it with fire, which was a common method used by the craftsmen who weaved bamboo baskets in his hometown. Two sticks were placed side by side on the fire, with stones supported at both ends, and a large stone was brought and pressed against the sticks. The fire was gone, and only the charcoal was left crackling.

After about two or three hours, the two wooden sticks were completely bent, and when Liu Qing saw it, he hurriedly wanted to pick up the big stone, and when he touched the stone, he suddenly made a hot sound. Liu Qing scolded, took the previous leaf that covered the rain and put it on the stone, and then picked up the stone and threw it aside.

The sticks were removed, and the middle part had been roasted to a black patch, especially one of them, which seemed to be partially burned. Liu Qing felt extremely sorry in his heart, he had been watching from the side, and he had ruined one, which was really unlucky.

But fortunately, the other one seems to be very successful so far, the whole wooden stick is burned into a crescent shape, and the middle is slightly black, so it doesn't affect the use. After adding some firewood to the fire, Liu Qing continued to make his own bow business, Xiao Wu was very curious, he didn't know what Liu Qing was doing, and saw that there was an identical one next to him, so he went to play with the burned wooden stick alone.

Liu Qing took the dagger, cut out two grooves at both ends of the bow body, and scraped a few times in the middle, there was a layer of blackened parts on it, and there was also some charcoal ash, after all the scraping off, the position of the middle point was slightly scraped for a while, so that the position on the right side of the middle was slightly concave, which was used to locate to determine the position of the hand and the position of the arrow.

After doing this, I took the long strip of white film that I had rubbed yesterday and tried it with my hands, although it was a little dry, but the elasticity was still there. It's just that it's a little shrunk and it's much shorter, and the stretch is harder than it was yesterday.

When tying the rope, Liu Qing first used the rope to loop the groove, pressed the short head with the long head, and then wrapped the short end around, and the excess part was wound along the long end, and finally tied it tightly with a piece of fishing line. Then put the bow up and start tying the other end, pressing down a little bit of the body and tying it in the same way. As soon as the strength of his hand was loosened, he suddenly bowed his body, and the whole rope was tightened.

Liu Qing looked at the bow he had made, he was indescribably satisfied, he pulled the bowstring and tried it, it was full of strength, if he didn't use great strength, it was really not easy to pull it away. As soon as the finger was released, there was a "bang" and the bowstring bounced back. Take a long thorn in your hand, go outside the cave to take the bow and arrow, hold the bow in your left hand, hook the bowstring with the index finger and middle finger of your right hand, hold the tail of the arrow between your two fingers, close your left eye slightly, and look directly at the arrow body with your right eye, aiming at a tree with a thick bowl mouth in front of you, about 20 meters away from Liu Qing.

"Whoosh"

The hand loosened the arrow and flew, but it was a foot away from the target. "Damn!" Liu Qing couldn't help but scold, although the bow and arrow are different from the gun, after all, they are all shooting, and the principle is the same, but Liu Qing missed the target, and deviated from the target by more than a foot, which made him, a sharpshooter, unbelievable.

Alas, if he doesn't believe it, there is no way, the facts are in front of him, and all he can do now is practice more. When he entered the cave, he added firewood to the fire, and found that there was not much left in the pyre, and the water in the kettle had been gone last night. After thinking about it, Liu Qing still decided to go to fetch water first, and then find a way to get a target and practice more archery after coming back.

When fetching water, Liu Qing washed his head in the stream by the way, and simply shaved his beard with a dagger, the dagger was very sharp, but after all, it was not a razor, and it hurt to shave, if it weren't for Liu Qing's unbearable appearance of the beard stubble in the reflection of the water, he really had plans to give up shaving.

After fetching the water, Xiao Wu slept obediently in the cave alone, and seemed to be used to Liu Qing's outing. I put aside a bundle of firewood that I had collected when I came back, added some to the fire, and when the fire started, put the dinosaur faucet on the pile of stones, pour water into it, a small half pot of water, a large piece of dinosaur meat, and cut a fruit and threw it in.

Liu Qing was outside the cave, looking at the various trees on all sides, and said to himself, "Alas, it would be nice if there was bamboo in this place, it would be nice to make a bamboo bucket for it, and it might not be so troublesome to get water." ”
