Chapter 15: There is a door
"Smack!"
A crisp gunshot rang out in the mountain forest. The dinosaur lying on its side trembled, its eyes burst with blood plasma, and then a lot of red and white transparent liquid flowed out of it, its undulating belly gradually stopped, and its tail hung down weakly, clinging to the ground, and there was no movement.
Liu Qing couldn't believe it, what the hell was going on? It seemed that this dinosaur was not pretending, it seemed to be sick, so it was lying here and couldn't move, and he was cautious for a day. However, even if it is a sick dinosaur, no animal dares to approach it easily without understanding the situation, and it is enough that no other animal dares to come near the entrance of this cave from yesterday to now.
And...... Liu Qing's inner excitement was also unintentional, I actually killed a dinosaur! I actually killed a dinosaur, and only used a bullet! This is simply so exciting!
After quickly calming down, Liu Qing made a decision, eat dinosaur meat! Although this dinosaur is not a large dinosaur, it is still more than twice as big as the big tiger he killed before, so how much meat can he get! In Liu Qing's eyes, this dinosaur now means a lot of food, and it is just food.
Returning to the cave, Liu Qing took the sapper shovel and dagger, and prepared to dismember the dinosaur and take down all the meat he could take as his own food reserve. When he came out of the cave again, he suddenly felt that something was wrong, and after thinking about it carefully, it turned out to be the entrance of the cave, which was too lacking in concealment compared to before! After the two phases were expedient, Liu Qing still decided to solve the problem of the cave entrance first, and then take dinosaur meat.
The reason is simple, although the cave entrance is not wide enough to hold out most large beasts such as dinosaurs, but it cannot be stopped by small animals such as wolves or other tigers that night. Then he put a lot of dinosaur meat in the hole, and the smell of blood was so big that it attracted the peeps of many carnivores. At that time, I am afraid that I will be attacked when I sleep at night, and I don't know how to die.
Just do it, Liu Qing looked around, and soon saw the two bundles of firewood and vines he had dropped before, which were originally used to build doors and burn fires. At that time, because he was chased by dinosaurs, he was thrown on the ground, not far from the cave entrance. Ran over again, pulled up the two vines, pulled the firewood and the vines back to the entrance of the cave, untied the bound vines, and carefully selected them.
First, he selected two trunks with delicate arms, cut off the branches with sapper shovels, and then trimmed one end into a sharp nail head to make two doorposts. Supporting himself with a stick, he jumped on the big stone at the entrance of the cave, took out a pre-prepared stone from his satchel and began to drive piles from it. On both sides of the doorway, there is a wooden stake on one side, and there is a lot of soil at the entrance of the cave due to the accumulation of many years, otherwise those weeds would not be able to grow at the entrance of the cave. However, the soil layer is not too thick, only about half a meter deep, because Liu Qing smashed it for more than half a meter and could not smash it again.
I tried to shake it with my hand, and it was okay. I simply measured the width of the upper mouth with a piece of vine, jumped down again, picked a thicker branch, and cut it with all my might. He went up to the stone again, put the thick branch across the hole, and attached it to the inside of the two doorposts, tried it, took it out and trimmed it, and put it in again, and so on three times, and finally the trimming was completed. The branches are trimmed to fit in diagonally, and then the high end is smashed with a stone, and when the ends are flattened, the horizontal frame is made.
Because there are no nails, Liu Qing must be strong enough. Although this door may not be worth mentioning for dinosaurs, it may be broken with one kick, but this door is not intended to prevent dinosaurs, but to prevent those slightly smaller predators, as long as they can't enter, or when breaking the door, Liu Qing can have enough time to respond.
In the same way, the lower door frame was also done, and a crossbar was placed on the inside of the door post and smashed into it. Then I selected a few thinner vines and tied each of the four corners a few times. I want to explain here that tying it once may be enough, but Liu Qing is afraid that a vine will be tied for safety, and if it is broken or bitten open, then the horn will become active, tie it a few more times, even if a vine is broken, the horn can still remain stable.
Then he took another twig, measured the width of the hole, and folded another one of the same length, and put the two in parallel. Then start laying a trimmed length of wooden stick on top. These sticks were of different thicknesses, but they were all relatively straight and long, and they were cut to almost the same length by Liu Qing.
After laying out the sticks, he cut many vines and weaved them into wooden rows one by one around the figure-eight rings. Because it takes more time, it is already noon when the wooden steak is ready. Liu Qing directly lit a fire outside the cave, tied two herringbone racks, inserted the remaining small half of the fish into a branch, and roasted it on it. He has been drinking fish soup for the past few days, and he has long been a little tired.
Make a wooden row, measure the length of the thin branches on the ground, cut off three thicker branches, and tie them horizontally in the upper, middle and lower positions. If you don't tie it, although the wooden row is arranged, if there is no crossbar, it is soft, and with the crossbar, it can naturally be hardened.
Carrying the finished wooden door, to the entrance of the cave a few strokes, the width is just right, it seems that it is a very wise choice to measure it with a thin branch first. Then Liu Qing made some mistakes, is it better to open this door on the left or right? There are no nails, and there is no hinge for the door, whether it is opened left or right, it seems a little inconvenient, and no matter how strong this vine is, I am afraid it will not be able to withstand a long time of friction.
Liu Qing simply leaned the door against the entrance of the cave and ran in to see Xiao Wu, perhaps because the entrance of the cave was suddenly blocked, and the light inside changed, Xiao Wu was a little scared, and the cry was full of fear. Liu Qing picked up Xiao Wu, two people, phew, one person and one beast ate three fruits. Liu Qing was going to see how the door should be installed again, but Xiao Wu relied on him, and his little paws grabbed his clothes, Liu Qing stood up and actually hung Xiao Wu up directly, and his cute big eyes were so cute.
Suddenly, Liu Qing had an idea, and immediately hugged Xiao Wu and kissed him a few times. Xiao Wu was a little stunned by the kiss, but the little paws still grabbed Liu Qing's collar tightly.
"Let's go, I'll take you out to play. Liu Qing carried Xiao Wu out of the cave, and outside the cave, Xiao Wu jumped on the fallen weeds, rolling and jumping, and had a great time. Liu Qing said happily: "You have fun, don't run far!" Xiao Wu seemed to understand, crawling on the grass, basking in the exposure bath, watching Liu Qing work.
When Xiao Wu hung on him just now, Liu Qing suddenly thought, why can't you hang the door up? Hang it on the door frame, so that when it lands, it doesn't need rattan force, which will greatly extend the life of the vine, but every time you go out, you need to lift the door, although it is more troublesome, but it is safer!
With a way, Liu Qing quickly installed the door. Take a tree trunk about the same thickness as the two side of the doorpost, cut the two ends into a "U" shape, and get stuck directly between the two columns, because there are stones and mountain walls on both sides to support, so it is strong enough. Then directly tie the door to this newly installed crossbar, usually the door is put down, when you need to go out, open the door from the inside, come back and then lift the door, although it is a little troublesome, but the safety and reliability are great!
After doing all this, Liu Qing had no choice but to smell the aroma of grilled fish. Rolling over and jumping off the stone, he tried to lift the door up, it was a little heavy, but it wasn't too difficult for him at all. Everything was done, Liu Qing clapped his hands and walked happily to the fire. The skin of the fish has been cracked open by the roast, and the white flesh inside can be seen when it is turned up, and the heat is constantly rising, giving off an irresistible aroma.
Even Xiao Wu seemed to be attracted by this mysterious fragrance that he had never smelled before, and looked at Liu Qing blankly. Liu Qing grabbed the branch in his hand, the fish meat on it was very hot, and after blowing a few breaths, he picked up a piece of fish meat with a dagger, tried it with his mouth a little, and felt that it was not too hot, so he put it in the palm of his hand and handed it to Xiao Wu.
Xiao Wu's eyes were full of surprise, and he hurriedly ran to Liu Qing's side, his little butt was upside down, and Liu Qing was secretly amused when he saw it. This fish meat is not very delicious, because Liu Qing feels that the taste is too light, and there is no saltiness at all, but for the sake of food, this is also something that cannot be helped.
Seeing that Xiao Wu was eating happily, Liu Qing made another piece of meat, got a clean big leaf, put it on it, and let Xiao Wu eat it casually. After taking a bite, I suddenly felt a little thirsty. I went back and drank water, and when I came out again, I had a fruit in my hand. Originally, Chinese eating barbecue meat were salt and chili noodles and cumin, but where did he have this kind of thing now, when drinking water, he suddenly saw a fruit falling out of the side of the shoulder bag, and thought, without salt, it is good to eat some fruit juice, at least the meat tastes good.
Cut open the fruit, take half of the pulp, squeeze it vigorously on the fish, and pour a line of juice over the grilled fish. Tearing off another piece of meat, "Hmm......" Liu Qing chewed, feeling that the taste was not bad, the deliciousness of the fish, coupled with the sweetness of the juice, had a unique flavor.
After eating and drinking, Xiao Wu seemed to be a little tired of playing, Liu Qing hugged it, opened the door, entered the hole, and put it on a pile of hay, Xiao Wu turned over with satisfaction, and fell asleep beautifully.
Liu Qing found some convenient places at this time, the door is like this, every time he opens the door from the outside, it is very difficult! So he ran outside again, cut a long wooden stick, returned to the hole, and after lifting the door, he used the long wooden stick to jack up the door, sure enough, it looks much more convenient, and it is very convenient to enter and exit every time, especially when he is carrying something in his hand, he does not need to bother to lift the door.
It was still early in the morning, about two or three o'clock in the afternoon. Liu Qing held a sapper shovel in his hand and a dagger pinned to his waist, standing in front of the dinosaur corpse, it's time to you! The dinosaur on the ground was motionless, the blood flowing out of the eye hole had coagulated, and a large pool of dark red viscous blood on the ground, so close that he could even smell a smell of blood.
