The afternoon sun is blazing.

Ye Xi sat cross-legged in the shade at the entrance of the cave, holding a piece of snake skin and began to embarrass him.

Making your own clothes is very simple in theory, but in practice it is quite a bit difficult to start.

Ye Xi picked up a bone needle as thick as a little finger and considered where to start sewing.

"Ye Xi, are you sewing a water bladder?"

A childish and timid voice came from overhead.

Ye Xi raised his head and recognized it for two seconds before he recognized it, it turned out to be a pheasant.

The little girl had been unkempt because of the lack of water in the tribe, but now after being cleaned by water, she revealed a delicate face, which was like two people from before.

"No, I want to make a dress. ”

"This snakeskin is beautiful. The pheasant's eyes were shining, her hands behind her back, dragging the ground with her feet, and hesitantly, "I, can I touch it?"

"My hands are very clean!" Pheasant hurriedly added, and stretched out his hands to show him in front of Ye Xi's eyes.

Ye Xi looked at her in surprise.

Seeing that Ye Xi didn't speak, the pheasant thought that he was unhappy, so he hurriedly waved his hand: "Then I won't look at it!"

Since Ye Xi solved the tribe's water problem, Ye Xi hadn't seen the pheasant much, and now seeing her trembling in front of him, he realized that the pheasant may be hiding because he was afraid of himself.

Realizing that he had scared the little girl, Ye Xi stuffed the snake skin into her hand and said with a smile: "Here you go, feel free to touch it." ”

The pheasant was stunned for a moment, felt the cold thing in his hand, and said, "Thank you." ”

She looked at the snakeskin in her hand over and over again, and with a glint of love in her eyes, she couldn't help but say, "Ah, this is really good material." ”

Ye Xi smiled: "I like snake skin so much, I still have a lot of them, I'll give you a piece." ”

The giant python was killed by Ye Xi, according to the rules, Ye Xi can keep half of the python meat, and the snake gall snake skin and snake teeth are also ruled by the chieftain and belong to Ye Xi.

The python is so big, and there are a lot of python skins peeled off, so it's nothing to give the little girl a piece.

The pheasant was taken aback, and hurriedly said: "How can this be, I'm not here to ask for snake skin, I just look at it beautiful, and I think it must look good if it is made into clothes." ”

Ye Xi spread his hands: "In this way, then you should accept it even more, because the clothes I made must not look good, and such a good material is wasted." ”

The pheasant was puzzled: "Since you can't do it well, why don't you let the women of the tribe do it?"

Ye Xi smiled bitterly: "I want to too, but they said that they have only sewed water bladders and have never made clothes, so they are afraid that such a precious snake skin will be wasted." ”

The pheasant frowned, bit his lip, and gritted his teeth half-loudly and said, "Otherwise, or you give it to me, I'll do it!"

Ye Xi raised his eyebrows.

After the first sentence was spoken, the pheasant seemed to loosen something, and the whole person became firm, and repeated: "I'll do it, I'll definitely do it well." ”

Ye Xi looked at her and didn't speak, and in the pheasant's increasingly worried gaze, he stood up, turned around and disappeared into the depths of the cave, and soon, he came out with a bunch of snakeskins like a small mountain.

Then, without saying anything, he stuffed it all to the pheasant.

smiled and said: "These are all for you, don't be afraid, don't worry about doing it boldly, don't be afraid of waste." ”

The pheasant stood in place holding the snake skin in a daze, the light in his eyes became more and more intense, half loud, nodded heavily, and responded with a smile: "Hmm!"

"Ye Xi, Ye Xi!" At this time, there was a rapid shout outside the entrance of the cave.

Ye Xi and Pheasant turned their heads to look at each other at the same time.

The next moment, a warrior with red cheeks rushed in from outside the cave with a bag of things on his back.

The warrior put down the burden of animal skin, his chest rose and fell, he looked at Ye Xi with rapid breathing, and said excitedly: "Ye Xi, I found it...... Found ......"

Ye Xi couldn't help but laugh and said, "Uncle Luo, you speak slowly and take a breath." ”

This warrior also looked a little old, and his sideburns showed a hint of white, Ye Xi recognized that this warrior was the warrior who jumped down from the mountainside on the second day of his arrival in the tribe, and almost pounced on him.

It's obviously not a hairy young man, but he is so excited that he can't even finish his words.

Luo took a hard breath and handed the animal skin burden to Ye Xi: "See for yourself!"

Ye Xi took the animal skin bag curiously, what kind of treasure was it that made him so excited?

When I untied the leather bag, I saw that there were white clods of earth inside.

Ye Xi was stunned, this is ...... The next moment, his whole body became excited, and in the shocked eyes of the pheasant, he twisted a piece of soil and put it in his mouth.

"Yes!" Luo held his breath, his eyes bloomed with a fiery light, and he stared at Ye Xi closely.

Ye Xi tasted it carefully, and the soil in his mouth was indeed salty! His eyes also lit up, and he said without hesitation: "Yes!"

When Luo heard Ye Xi's affirmation, he was so excited in his heart that he had nowhere to vent and could only excitedly raise his fists and spin around in place.

The chief instructed the warriors to look around for salty clods or stones when hunting, most of the warriors did not understand why, and Locke was one of the few warriors who knew the inside story, so he was so excited when he found the salty soil, and the prey stopped fighting, and ran back from the jungle with the salty soil on his back all the time.

The pheasant couldn't figure out the situation on the side, and listened to the conversation between the two in a daze.

Ye Xi took a breath and calmed down a little: "Uncle Luo, where did you find it, it's not far from the tribe, how much salt soil like this is there?"

Luo was still very excited, and said incoherently: "Many, many, not far, a little farther than fetching water." ”

Although Luo spoke in a disorderly manner, Ye Xi still understood, knowing that the salt soil produced a lot of land, and it was not far from the tribe, he was overjoyed: "In this case, Uncle Luo, you go and tell the chief, there is hope for our tribe's salt!" The last sentence deliberately suppressed his throat.

Hearing that he could get salt, now Ye Xi said what Luo is: "Okay, okay, I'll go immediately." ”

After Luo left, the pheasant curiously looked at the clods of soil wrapped in animal skins on the ground and asked Ye Xi: "What is this, are you talking about salt?

Ye Xi squatted down and touched the clods of soil, he was in a good mood, and when he heard the pheasant's question, he smiled and sold it: "What's this...... Confidentiality for the time being. ”

The pheasant pursed his lips secretly.

After a while, the chief and Luo Xing rushed over.

The chief ran fast, all the way, the intricate bone ornaments on his body made a loud sound, and Luo buried his head in the chase behind him.

"Where is it!" the chief yelled at Ye Xi as soon as he arrived, coldly frightened the clansmen at the entrance of the cave, and their eyes all converged.

Realizing that he was talking too loudly, causing everyone to look at it, the chief took a deep breath, waved his hand and whispered to Ye Xi and Luo: "Let's go, let's talk in another place." ”

Ye Xi couldn't help grinning when he saw that the chief, who had always been calm, was so out of shape, and when he found that the chieftain quickly put away his smile after seeing it, as if nothing had happened, he said, "Let's go." ”

The three of them came to a secluded place.

The chief had calmed down and tasted the clods inside the animal skin bag: "It does have a salty taste. ”

Turning his head and asking Ye Xi, his expression solemn: "Can this soil really be used, can it be refined into salt?"

Ye Xi nodded: "Don't worry, you can." ”

Although he heard what Luo said and confirmed with Ye Xi again, the chief finally had some confidence in his heart, and breathed a long sigh of relief: "Okay, what should I do after that?"

Ye Xi pondered for a while and said, "Help me prepare a few things." ”

Chief: "You say." Even if he wanted to go to the jungle to hunt a beast himself, he agreed.

"Prepare some grass for me, the longer the better, and some wood chips, cut into long strips. ”

The chief and Luo listened carefully, thinking that there was still something behind, but after waiting for a while, Ye Xi didn't speak again, the chief and Luo were stunned, and asked in unison: "That's all?"

Ye Xi snorted: "That's all, these are ready, other things should be available to the tribe." ”

The chief and Locke looked at each other.

There was an eerie silence for a moment.

After a while, the chief broke the silence: "I'll tell someone else to get it later, and it will be done quickly." ”

Ye Xi nodded: "There's no need to be in such a hurry, it's okay tomorrow." ”

Then the atmosphere fell silent again, looking at the two of them with their eyes flashing and wanting to say something and holding back, Ye Xi raised his eyebrows.

The chief pondered and asked, "Ye Xi, can this method really refine salt?"

Ye Xi smiled and comforted them: "If you don't believe me, you should also believe my teacher, since you can solve the water problem with that method last time, why are you worried that you can't solve the salt problem?"

As soon as the witch was brought out, they were like taking a reassuring pill, and their originally apprehensive hearts immediately fell, and the two of them thought about it again, the problem of water shortage in the tribe had just been solved, and their hearts were more settled.

The faces of the two of them were filled with joy again, and the chief thought of something and hurriedly added to Ye Xi: "Ye Xi, I don't mean to question that witch, I just ask casually." ”

Ye Xi shook his head with a smile, saying that he didn't mind, in fact, he could understand that the method sounded simpler, and it was normal for them to be worried, but it was often the simplest and the most practical.
