Chapter 487: A Huge Tail
Clay should not only be used to make fences, otherwise Bi Fang would not have wasted so much energy.
He also used clay to make blast furnaces, blast furnaces to make iron, all of which required clay materials.
Bi Fang inserted a wooden stick and stirred the clay and water as if it were cement, and soon a burst of gray water appeared on the surface of the clay pit, accompanied by mud and sand.
"Has anyone washed gluten? That is, the kneaded dough is put in the water finely, and after the starch is washed, the remaining lump is gluten, and our current process is similar to washing gluten. ”
After mixing for a while, the washed clay was scooped out, drained and drained, and a usable clay was successfully washed.
After scooping out all the clay, Bi Fang quickly ran into the forest, and after a while, dragged out several thick vines, the thickness of his wrist, and then dragged the vines around the shed.
The end is not connected, and the distance of one meter is vacated as an exit.
After that, Bi Fang used more rattan to surround the pillars on the roof of the shed, all of which were left one meter free in the same position, reserved for the gate, and when the rattan was piled up one meter high, a vine wall appeared.
But having a layer outside was not enough, Bi Fang continued to look for vines, and on the inside of the pillar, he also wrapped a layer.
There are two layers of vine walls inside and outside.
Between each two vines, they are tied tightly by Bi Fang with fine fiber ropes.
When watching Bi Fang pull the vine and the entire roof of the shed shook, the audience couldn't help but worry about whether it would suddenly collapse.
"That's why I need two layers inside and outside, and wait a minute, you can directly seal the support column, so that unless the column is directly exercised, it is impossible to fall."
Bi Fang kicked the vines, and the whole house shook, but it was still very strong, and when the clay was painted, the wall was connected to the earth, and it would be stronger.
"The vines aren't enough, I'm just using it to make a support structure, and then we're going to coat it with clay, you know? Reinforced concrete is a typical composite material, and the steel bars in it can make the whole structure stronger, similar here. ”
After doing all this, he shouldered the clay, poured it on top of the wall, and wiped it off little by little with his hands to make it look like a wall.
[Resin concrete! 】
[Awesome! 】
[It looks pretty solid.] 】
[Awesome, build one in my house today]
In order to make the fence more aesthetically pleasing, Bi Fang also used a small uniform wooden stick to roll around the clay wall and flatten it so that it became smoother and the corners more square.
It took a full two hours for the clay wall to be made, and it was about four o'clock in the afternoon.
It took hours of work from noon onwards to build the wall, which was not an easy task.
"Now it's just a matter of getting the clay dry and hardening, and we can light a campfire in the house to make it dry faster."
Bi Fang came to the inside of the house, the current shelter is the real shelter, and when the clay is dry, it will be a natural wall, which can be attacked and defended.
As long as you don't encounter white-limbed bison, super-large creatures like the Indochinese tiger are basically no problem, and many venomous snakes can't climb up to the one-meter-high smooth walls.
This is the most enjoyable thing for Bi Fang, the cold and slippery snake has always been his least favorite creature, and he is sincerely happy to think that he will not be worried about this creature sleeping next to you in the middle of the night.
Not only that, but the pillars that support the roof are also sealed, so that as long as it is not a direct section, it is almost impossible for the roof to fall.
"Fortunately, I had the foresight to build the roof relatively high, otherwise it would have affected the lighting now." Bi Fang stood inside the room, looking around.
The wall is close to one meter, but fortunately, the roof of the shed has been built by Bi Fang and Leonardo, and the edge height is more than two meters, and now more than one meter of lighting is left, and it really has the feeling of "house".
"It's just that the interior is too monotonous, it's all brown soil, but there's no way, and you don't have to choose to lay a lot of thatch, it's not impossible, but you also have to face two problems."
Bi Fang added some firewood to the bonfire: "First, if there is a lot of hay, it is easy to attract a lot of small insects, which requires you to repel insects regularly, and second, it is easy to cause a fire, and it is best not to put flammable materials within three meters of the bonfire, unless you choose to light a bonfire outside the house." ”
"In addition, since the fence has been built, let's not forget to add an extra drainage ditch, otherwise you will be very uncomfortable if it is flooded."
Bi Fang pointed to a groove in the ground and explained that the design of the shack is also very exquisite.
Different numbers of people, different sizes and shapes of shacks.
"If you're just one person, a three-metre diameter shack is enough to provide plenty of space and heat."
"Don't overestimate the space you need, three meters in diameter is already poking around, even if I built it with Leonardo, you can see, it's less than four meters in diameter."
Bi Fang stood up, came to the side of the wall, and walked seven steps in a straight line in the shack.
The distance of a normal person is 45cm to 60cm, which shows that the space of the shelter is indeed about four meters in diameter, not even a little bit, as Bi Fang said.
"For a team of six, it's enough to build a shack with a diameter of five meters, and even that can hold up to nine people."
"The location of the fire pit is also very important, if the oxygen can penetrate under the ground, the fire will burn even more. We can do this by digging four trenches underneath, starting with the four walls and digging one in each direction to communicate with the fire pit, and of course I don't have to do that. ”
"The last is the exit of the shack, normally, the exit of the shack built in the field should not be to the south, although that is the most sunny, but we are not in a crowded city, if you want to dry clothes, sun, you can walk a few steps out."
"We're going to point the exit to the east, which is the direction in which the sun rises."
Bi Fang stretched out his hand and pointed to the gap in the wall that he had specially set aside, the gap was not completely undefended, but directly piled up a layer of clay similar to a threshold, not high, but a palm high, and a few holes were dug on it.
The hole is used to install the gate, Bi Fang is sharpened with bamboo, arranged in a grid-like pattern, one long, two short arranged together, the long protrusion can be inserted into the hole, the other end is sharpened, and it is difficult for animals to climb up.
The only real gap in the entire wall is the drain, which can be plugged with stones if it doesn't rain.
The shelter is not only high, but also not far from the stream, a relatively open place, and the only place with a radius of hundreds of meters where you can clearly see the sun, but the line of sight is still narrow.
"The exit facing east, in the early morning, the sun will wake you up, so that you will feel very happy, both physically and mentally, and keep your mood happy, which is the most important thing in the wilderness."
"We can't do anything at night unless we're in the middle of a desert or a snowy field, and that's the hunting time of wild beasts, which doesn't match the human routine."
"If you often watch my videos, you will know that unless I make tools at night, I usually go to bed before 9 o'clock in the evening, basically from sunrise to sunset."
In the wilderness, you must try to make use of the daytime time, there is no entertainment at night, and there are conditions, you can only do some simple work.
"If you let the exit face the other direction, you'll find that you wake up later because it's darker in the shack, which is an irreparable loss."
Across the ocean, Peter nodded vigorously.
Many overseas netizens also agree.
It was Bi Fang's regular life that led them to live an irregular life.
For domestic netizens, it is painful and happy.
[In order to watch the live broadcast of the old party, I just lived a regular work and rest]
[To be honest, I slept before 9,000, got up at 6 o'clock, and made up for half an hour to 45 minutes of sleep at noon, and I was really full of energy all day]
[Me too, in order to catch up on the live broadcast, I had to go to bed early and get up early]
[Staying up late consumes too much energy]
[It's okay, it's not a late night to get enough sleep]
"Nope." Bi Fang shook his head, "Many people think that as long as you get enough sleep, you don't stay up late, but this is actually wrong, even if you get enough sleep, but you sleep during the day and play at night, interrupting the biological clock." ”
The biological clock is said to be mysterious, but it does exist.
Disorder not only causes physical fatigue and mental weakness, but more importantly, it can endanger human health.
"Some people may say that the biological clock can be adjusted, but can you adjust the sunrise and sunset? People are diurnal animals, just like bats are nocturnal animals, this is determined by our genes and evolution, no matter how you adjust it, you can't change it, unless you stay in a completely closed room all day, otherwise the biological clock will definitely be chaotic. ”
【】
[Don't look at it, it's half past five, it's time for dinner]
[So early? 】
"Is it so late?" Bi Fang raised his head, only to find that the sunlight had turned orange, patted the dust on his hands and got up, "Then let's take a look at the wall?" ”
I reached out to the wall and pinched it, the clay surface had begun to harden, but the rainforest air was humid and it would take time for it to dry completely.
Fortunately, after an inspection, Bi Fang found that there were no obvious big cracks in the wall, indicating that he had done a very good job, and he could basically declare that this was a successful wall.
"It's time to eat."
Bi Fang fished out the fresh fish from the pool next to him, yes, it was the pool.
The pit where the clay was poured was empty, so Bi Fang dug some deeper, poured water, and made a pool of water to keep the live fish he had just brought back.
As long as the basic food and clothing problems are solved, and there is a stable source of food, life can basically get better and better.
Bi Fang, who scraped off the scales and covered the leaves with the internal organs, carried two fish, and just wanted to go into the shelter to barbecue, but the leaves on the side suddenly rustled.
In the first venue, the crowd that was just about to leave silently stopped.
"Was there a voice just now?"
"What sound?"
"I didn't hear you...... I think they're all staying, and I'm staying....."
"It seems that something is approaching, and you listen, the sound is getting louder and louder."
As the sun set and approached dusk, Bi Fang moved silently and held the wooden spear leaning against the wall.
The rubbing of the leaves grew louder and louder, and finally there was a loud bang.
One, one...... Uh, a huge tail poked out.
