Since the main body of the hat still has to be woven with branches and bark, the material must not be upgraded too much, and there are no good tools in the tribe to trim it tightly.

Therefore, Shi Ban found another way, and took some thatch from Song Xuan and interspersed it in it, the thatch is relatively easy to trim, interspersed in it, just enough to cover most of the gaps, although it is impossible to be as tight as the cloth, but with the cooperation of the two, there is no problem with the general rain.

As for the hole in the top of the head, it is not easy to completely contain it, and Shi Ban sewed a piece of animal skin on the outside to cover it, so that there are not many places that can leak rain.

Because it was only changed in the original place, it was still very fast to make, and in the evening, both of them had already done the part they were responsible for, and the seams of the clothes were completely rubbed against the flesh and skin, and Song Xuan also made them as soft as possible, and some of them were really bad, and they were also covered with animal skins.

After doing it, Song Xuan directly put it on his body and tried it on.

The materials selected are relatively lightweight, so this set is not heavy, and it is even lighter than the winter animal skin jacket, but it will definitely add some weight after being wet, but even so, it should not affect the action too much.

"Wow!"

……

The other people in the tribe were still a little frightened when they saw that Song Xuan was covered in a pile of thatch all of a sudden, the area of the house where they worked was not large, and it was full of all kinds of wood, so Song Xuan generally didn't make things in it.

So he came to the main house with Shi Ban, everyone usually works and eats in the main house, the sky is already dark, Song Xuan naturally attracted everyone's attention this time.

"Oracle, what is this?"

Seeing that Song Xuan suddenly became like this, the people around him were very curious about the clothes and hats, and since Song Xuan didn't say much to others when he did it, most of them didn't understand its purpose.

"Keeping out the rain!"

In fact, in the eyes of Teng Snake, the rain is not too much of a thing that affects the action, if it is not very big, everyone generally treats it as nothing happens, and still does what should be done.

If you're in the tribe, it's good to find something else to do, especially during the hunting time, which is also a rare leisure time.

Polishing the weapon, replenishing the arrows, and at the same time summarizing the experience of this period of time, although most of the tacit understanding is slowly cultivated during the hunt, but the time is also relatively tight when hunting, and there will not be too much communication between everyone, but at this time you can discuss it with each other.

Of course, the long rainy season must still make everyone feel a little worried, but no matter what, the set made by Song Xuan does not seem to be something that can be used flexibly.

Although it is not heavy on the body, it still looks a little bluffing, Song Xuan, who was originally relatively tall, was directly strong several times at this time, especially except for the bare legs, which were all covered, which looked particularly mysterious.

But it doesn't look very convenient, and it's no wonder that everyone has this idea, Song Xuan walked a few steps in dress, although it was not heavy, but after all, there was a layer, and there must still be a sense of restraint.

However, the hat was not originally prepared for hunting and gathering, and when it rained, the gathering team was fine, and if the rain was not heavy, the fruit would still be there, but the prey would not be outside in the rain.

And even if you make it lighter, it's not realistic to want to hunt in it.

This is mainly for planting preparations, the growth period of rice will inevitably encounter the rainy season, although this year the rainy season is not much, but it has come back to the horse gun.

According to the state of the past two years, I think there will be no less time like this in the future.

You can't go out to dredge the canal in the rain every time, and it is still very necessary to have such a set of equipment.

After telling everyone a little about the role, Song Xuan didn't talk nonsense, and strode out directly.

Everyone was a little disappointed to hear that this thing didn't come in handy when they usually worked, but it was also a habit since ancient times to rest when it rained, and at most they just felt sorry.

However, Shi Jiu and Shui Wu looked at Lingyi and had extra thoughts, at least this set of outfits was still very good for bluffing.

Seeing Song Xuan walking out, the others also left their work in their hands and followed.

At this time, the rain outside had not abated, and according to the time, it should not be time for the sun to set, but by this time the outside of the house had begun to get dark due to the dark clouds.

Song Xuan didn't talk nonsense, and after walking out of the door, he got into the heavy rain.

Listening to the sound of raindrops hitting the coat, I even felt a little pleasant.

Cracking sound~

The thatch was completely dried in the tribe, so there was not much movement, and there was a rattling sound with the wind.

Just stood in the rain, just a few breaths, the rain had already begun to drip down the coat hat, but because it was woven in several layers, Song Xuan touched it back, it was still very dry inside, and there was no rainwater leaking in the connection, but after all, the time to come out was still short, so I could only stand for a while longer to see if there would be any impact in the back.

After a while, Song Xuan felt that the top of his head began to leak, but this effect had completely exceeded Song Xuan's expectations, and it had been more than ten minutes since he stood in the rain, but so far, he only felt that a small area on the top of his head was wet.

However, because the connection with the cloth is not particularly good, the neck is wet with dripping rain, and if you want to cover it completely, you can only make the hat tilt slightly, but then there is no way to cover the face.

However, this is only a minor problem, and it can be solved by slightly modifying the brim and expanding it a little more, and even in the current state, it is not a problem to use it at all.

After all, with such heavy rain, it is unrealistic to want it not to be wet at all.

Then Song Xuan simulated the movements of labor, and sure enough, as soon as he moved, the rain began to come in, but it would not affect the action, and no matter what, it was definitely much better than being directly in the rain.

Usually in the face of such heavy rain, basically you can't do anything, everyone can only stay in the tribe, and even walk between the houses have to speed up the pace, otherwise you will stay outside for a little longer, but you will be drenched in soup.

After tossing outside for half an hour, Song Xuan returned to the house.

As soon as Song Xuan came in, everyone surrounded him.

The rain dripping from the coat directly wet the ground, and everyone gradually doubted the practicality of the coat.

Song Xuan wiped the rain from his face, and then took off the hat, it may be that it was not particularly fine when it was compiled, and the water leakage was not very few, but they were all concentrated on the same side, at this time, Song Xuan also had his hair on one side, and he lay down directly, and the other side was slightly fluffy.

However, the effect is still quite obvious, if you don't wear anything, go out directly, it is estimated that just after going out, your hair will be almost wet.

Without waiting for everyone to show surprised expressions, Song Xuan then untied the robe.

The thatch on the outer layer of the coat was completely wet, so the weight was much heavier than at the beginning, but fortunately, it was not too wet inside, and it was still within the acceptable range.

Therefore, because it was relatively dense when compiling, Song Xuan also deliberately reduced the distance between each layer, so the water leakage was fine, mainly at the connection.

However, except for the wet neck, it is not noticeable in other places.

The weather is relatively hot, and Song Xuan is also shirtless, so everyone can tell at a glance whether he is wet or not.

Shi Meng still didn't believe it, and stepped forward to touch it.

"Huh!"

A big man was going to touch him, Song Xuan was naturally very nervous in his heart, and he turned sideways very dexterously to dodge, where was wet on his body, he was still very clear.

"Haha~"

Seeing this, everyone just smiled, just Shi Meng's action, it was impossible for anyone to touch it.

"Divine envoy, it seems to be pretty good!"

"It doesn't look very wet!"

“……”

Although the effect is not very great for everyone, the rainproof effect is obviously quite good.

Even if you don't usually use it, but the hat is also used, especially now that the weather is so hot, if you can have such a thing, it will definitely be a lot easier to think about, and if it's just some light rain, it can also be slightly blocked.

Without paying attention to the people who were talking around him, Song Xuan pointed out a few leaks during the test to Shi Ban, although they were all already knitted, it was still possible to intersperse some finer things, even some hairs could be slightly blocked.

Song Xuan is already quite satisfied with the current effect, so even a slight improvement is fine.

As for the problem of the brim, it's not so easy to change it now, and forcibly connecting it will only be counterproductive, anyway, this can be used now, and it would be good to make it bigger later when making it.

So there are also these places that need to be improved, but after all, they are weaved, so it is very convenient to change, Song Xuan lengthened his shoulders a little more, and several connected places were also thickened by two layers.

Hurry up and hurry up, and finally fix it before dinner, but there must be no time for experiments today, it is already completely dark by this time, and it is always so early when it rains and gets dark.

What made Song Xuan feel most uncomfortable was that just when Song Xuan was about to wear it to the field for an interview the next day, he didn't expect that the heavy rain that had not shown the slightest sign of abating yesterday had completely stopped today.

It's just been made, so it's useless all of a sudden.

But fortunately, the rain doesn't stop all the time, and the time of the rain is also used, but it doesn't have any effect, and the matter has come to this, Song Xuan can only comfort himself like this.

After stopping for three days, it finally rained again, but the rain was not heavy, Song Xuan was dressing, so he was busy outside for a long time, and after coming back, his body was not very wet, and most of the places were dry.

Although it didn't show its power when the rain was at its highest, the effect is not bad for now, at least in the future, it rains, and there is no need to worry about going out.

Now that the weather is so hot, even when it doesn't rain, Song Xuan will take a hat with him, at least take a turn outside, and he won't be directly stunned.

Looking at the rice that had gradually become full, Song Xuan also asked Shi Ban to make more hats, so that it could also come in handy when harvesting, so that it would not be like when the rice was planted, and they were all choked by the sun one by one.

Although there was a lot of rain this year, the planting time was more reasonable than last year's, so the rice still grows very quickly, and it should be harvested in less than a month.

Song Xuan also talked to Shi Meng about the approximate time, everyone worked hard in this month, and then it was the official harvest day, it seems that the yield will not be particularly low at present, and the tribe will not have to worry too much about food at that time.

By the time the winter harvest is almost polished, there isn't much to worry about.

Walking in the field, Song Xuan suddenly remembered that there seemed to be one less threshing floor in the tribe, after all, there was so much rice, and if he slowly broke away with his hands like last year, he would have to get it to the Year of the Monkey.

And this year, Song Xuan also wanted to make full use of the straw, otherwise he wouldn't have let everyone polish so many saw sickles, in order to get the rice down by falling down after the harvest.

However, although it is easy to beat, it definitely needs a field, and it can't be done directly in the field.

And when you fall, it will definitely splash around, and if you don't stop it with something around, it won't be easy to clean it up at that time.

If you want to be convenient, you must get a small piece of land at the edge of the field, so that you don't need to move too far away, but it's only because when it was reclaimed, Song Xuan was too greedy and left almost no spare space, and it was not easy to reopen up a completely flat land at this time, and it could only be made on the tribe's side.

Song Xuan has seen that kind of van-type threshing machine, although the principle is similar, but the millet can be directly left in the large wooden box, and the wooden box can also be transported, and even slightly modified to turn it into mechanization, it is not so easy to make a large wooden box in the tribe, let alone others.

Although the production process has improved a lot in the past two years, due to the constraints of tools, there is still no big breakthrough in carpentry work, but it is only slightly more refined than before.

Now that we have reached the limit of what we can do with our bare hands, if we want to do better, we must need some tools that can chop.

So Song Xuan directly gave up the idea of moving, since there was no way to move, then make it fixed, anyway, there was still a large piece of open space here in the tribe.

The big deal is to enclose it directly with wood, just like a room without a roof, you can beat it as much as you want when the door is closed, and the rice will not splash everywhere.

This is still very easy for the tribe to do, and even Song Xuan pasted a layer of grass and mud on the surrounding wooden walls, dried it and burned it with fire, at least now it looks like there is no obvious bulge, although it is not very smooth, but at least there are not so many gaps.

If there is a gap, the rice can easily get into it, and it will definitely be troublesome to clean it up when the time comes, after all, the yield is not particularly high now, and this unnecessary waste must be as little as possible.

After doing this, Song Xuan asked Shi Ban to sit on two more stools in it, of course, this was definitely not used to be a person, but to beat rice.

This directly uses the mortise and tenon structure that is now relatively mature in the tribe, although the holes are burned out of charcoal, but after all, so much has been done, Shiban is now very proficient, basically there will not be much error, so the wood is also very tight after being put together.

After all, it has to be hit thousands of times, and if it is not so tight, it is not convenient to use.

Looking at the rice field opposite, and then looking at this threshing house with less than one room, Song Xuan always had the illusion of a small horse-drawn cart, and then made another one next to him, two rooms should be almost enough, and this is also a temporary use, because this year did not take into account next year, it will definitely be set up in the field.

"Divine envoy, Shi San is about to be born!"

Just as the second threshing hut was about to be completed, Shihua ran back to the tribe like the wind, bringing a very shocking news.

This year, the tribe belongs to the first baby of the Teng Snake, and it is finally about to be born.

Although there are a lot of more people in the tribe, they can't even eat enough in Yangyang in winter, and when they come, they are all hungry and skinny, naturally no one is pregnant, and according to them, there are pregnant last year, and they are hungry in winter.

Two women from Blackwater gave birth to children in the spring, but they were not too lucky, and only one survived.

Shi San was already pregnant before the winter, so he was born relatively early, although Teng Snake will not intentionally control the time of pregnancy, but he will also pay attention to it.

Although the body is relatively solid, it seems that everyone knows that it is still a little dangerous when you are first pregnant, so concentrated pregnancy is generally in late autumn or winter.

In this way, there is also more time to recuperate, after all, the living conditions of Teng Snake for so many years are not so bad most of the time.

It seems that more than a dozen pregnant women last year have also reached the time to start the "harvest".

As the first child of Teng Snake, there must still be some attention, this is also a tradition in the tribe, the success of the first child is representative of Teng Snake's side, although Shui Yun They are already completely Teng Snake's people, but the previous Black Water Tribe does not seem to have this rule.

Not long after Shi Hua came back, several people walked back with Shi San.

The tribe has also made preparations, but the conditions are very limited, nothing more than some hot water.

In this era, even giving birth in the wild is a very common thing, but after hearing about it a few times, Song Xuan made a request to everyone, that is, to have a child, you must return to the tribe.

The conditions in the tribe will definitely be better, and there will not be so many dangers.

Even if everyone is physically strong, they will be somewhat weaker after giving birth.

Proper care is also necessary, although the child was not born before, but Song Xuan has made people ready, and the tribe also has a separate delivery room, of course, after the child is born, there is a nursery room.

According to Song Xuan's plan, if one or two children are born, they can also be taken by their mothers, but if there are too many, it is better to feed them in the tribe, and at most leave a few women to feed in the tribe, so that those who go out to work do not have to be distracted.

Giving birth to a child Song Xuan can't help much, the women in the tribe are more professional than Song Xuan in this regard.

Primitive giving birth to a child is not as difficult as Song Xuan used to watch on TV, it is difficult to give birth or something at every turn, and it was only more than two hours after Shihua came back, and the baby's cry reached Song Xuan's ears.

The voice is very loud, and the body is relatively healthy, although they are working until the birth, but the nutrition in the tribe is still very sufficient, and these pregnant women are also deliberately cared for, and they will not be allowed to do too heavy work, even if they pick fruits, they are only allowed to pick the bottom, and do not have to climb up and down like other people.

Song Xuan also rushed to the door as soon as he heard the cry, and just collided with Shi Hua, looking at the somewhat wrinkled baby, the corners of Song Xuan's mouth also cracked unconsciously.

The baby has been washed with warm water according to Song Xuan's requirements, and there was no such good treatment in the tribe before, at most, it was to wipe the animal skin.

Since there is no pot, there is no hot water to wash, and only cold water can be used for scrubbing, and the weather is warm enough to be fine, but if it is in winter, it is somewhat cruel.

Although her body was strong, Song Xuan still let Shi San recuperate in the house, but at dinner, Shi San was no longer much different from ordinary people, and Song Xuan couldn't even see any signs of giving birth to a child from her face.

The birth of each new life is a very grand event for Teng Snake, so dinner is usually more sumptuous than usual.

Although the hunting team did not come back, Song Xuan also asked Shi Yan to catch more than a dozen rabbits, and the rabbits are now breeding very fast, so there is no need to save too much.

After eating and drinking, the two witches also held a small sacrificial ceremony, although it did not require too many people to participate, but the sense of ceremony was still very grand.

Seeing the baby sleeping peacefully on the altar, everyone laughed unconsciously.

The most important purpose of this ritual is to allow the newborn babies to receive the blessings of the gods in the hope that they will grow up healthy.

After all, the mortality rate in this era is too high, and you can only rely on the blessing of the gods.

Thirteen only rested in the tribe for one day, and on the third day, he continued to return to the gathering team with the baby in his arms.

In this era, there is no such thing as confinement, and it is a regular operation to work at birth, and it is very rare to have more than one day of rest time in the surrounding tribes.

However, seeing that there was no abnormality in the thirteen bodies, Song Xuan agreed, the bodies of women in this era are still not so delicate, of course, there is naturally the pressure of survival.

In any case, just after giving birth to a child is certainly not more than ordinary people, but a long rest is obviously not in line with the survival laws of primitive society, and if you don't work, you can usually only go hungry, although the snake is slightly better, but the traditional concept also needs time to change.
