Chapter 647 Making Salt from Plant Ashes

This is really a full meal!

Lying on the animal hide covered with wild grass, Desolate felt a sore back and looked towards the man outside the cave who was knitting a backpack with a smile on his face.

During the days when this man was raising his legs, he couldn't stop. In addition to being gentle with himself, he just learned to do some small crafts to make himself happy.

And now, I don’t want to talk about his manual skills, but if I talk about it too much, I will shed tears of jealousy.

Xiao Se looked at the bruises on his chest and carefully touched the left side of his face. The purple spot where Chang Hun slapped him was still there. Night Breeze looked at this Yaksha face, how could he keep his mouth shut?

Well, if Ye Feng is like this, she can keep her mouth shut.

Feeling the bleak gaze, Ye Feng raised his eyes and looked towards the cave. The smile on his lips widened, and his whole body exuded the honey of love.

Then, three more little heads appeared at the entrance of the cave, looking at Xiao Se one after another.

Xiao Se: "..."

Did these three little ones not only hear what happened just now, but also saw it?

Shame on people!

Xiao Se stood up, awkwardly pulled on his pants, and adjusted his underwear. He didn't look away, but his face was already bleeding.

When they came to the entrance of the cave, the three little eyes all looked at Xiao Se. A Di bared his teeth, Ah Xing also bared his teeth. The little dragon bird couldn't imitate it and opened its mouth directly.

Is this all a joke?
Xiao Se covered his forehead with his hand, glared at the bastard who laughed out loud, walked up to the ramie silk, touched it, and pulled off a handful of ramie silk.

Night Breeze was smiling all over his body: "Arthur, what do you need me to do?"

"Let's make the backpack first and then talk about other things." Xiao Se took the ramie silk and sat on the stone at the entrance of the cave. "I will weave a small piece of filter cloth out and use it to boil the plant ash later."

Night breeze.

Xiao Se pointed to the empty bowl next to him and said to A Di: "A Di, bring half the bowl of water."

A Di took the empty bowl and looked at Xiao Se, then at the empty bowl, until he heard Ye Feng's voice, then he hurried to Ye Feng and handed the empty bowl to Ye Feng with bared teeth.

Ye Feng said coldly: "Do it yourself and fetch water."

He kicked the stream and said, "Even if you can't speak, you still have to learn to listen. Otherwise, Arthur won't let you stay with her next time."

Ah Di understood, bared his teeth and screamed at the night wind: "Ah!"

He quickly fetched a bowl of water, stood upright on his feet, and walked towards Xiao Se holding a bowl of water.

As he walked, the water in the bowl spilled out, and he screamed anxiously, and his short legs ran even faster.

It seems like this way, the water in the bowl will not spill out.

And it turned out that when A Di arrived in front of Xiao Se, the water in the bowl was only the bottom water.

A Di stared at the thin layer of water at the bottom of the bowl, dejected.

"Adi, that's great, thank you!" Xiao Se took the bowl and put it aside. He put his index finger and thumb into the bowl to wet it. He picked up the ramie thread and began to tear it apart and twist it into thread.

A piece of ramie silk is one meter long. If you want to connect it to a thread, you have to connect the ends of the thread. This is how to twist the thread into a thread.

Because the silk thread has dried in the sun, it will be fine if you twist it a little. If you twist it for a long time, the twine will be like a knife, leaving bloody cuts on your thumb and index finger.

Moreover, it is not easy to connect dry twine end to end, so it will be easier if you dip some water on your index finger and thumb and then twist the thread.

Xiao Se had done this kind of work at home helping his grandma when he was a child. At that time, his grandma made this twine for weaving fish nets.

Xiao Se twisted the hemp thread into silk and slowly placed it on the grass, one after another, so that the hemp thread would not be messy.

When the time comes, wrap the animal skin with a branch, then wind the twine into a twine ball, and it's ready to be used.A Di looked at the circles of twine on the grass, curious, and then stretched out his hand. Xiao Se shouted: "Don't move, I'll chop off your claws."

Ah Di saw Xiao Se angry and immediately retracted his paws and ran to Ah Xin: Arthur is mean to me!
A'feng moved his front paws to reveal a little bit of space, and A'di crawled over, leaned on its belly, and spread himself out like the little dragon bird.

Comfortable!

Basking in the sun at the end of March or early April is really indescribably comfortable.

Xiao Se looked at the joy of the three little ones, and then looked at the night breeze knitting a basket on his back, feeling full of happiness.

Xiao Se used hemp thread to weave filter towels, and Xiao Se did not split the hemp thread too thin, nor did he twist it too long.

Looking at the piles of twine balls beside him, Xiao Se began to weave a filter towel, using the same technique as knitting a backpack, except that the filter towel did not have a bottom, but was a flat towel, which was much easier to weave than a backpack.

A small square scarf as big as a head was knitted, and Xiao Se happily showed it to Ye Feng, showing off: "Ye Feng, look, what I knitted, does it look good? Touch it."

Ye Feng looked at the thin little square scarf, his eyes shining: "Is this what you said you can wear?"

It feels so soft.

"Yes." Xiao Se circled happily, "Although it feels a little burnt to the touch, it will become softer after washing it a few times."

Ye Feng was horrified. It was so thin and soft and he said it would be so soft. He was really looking forward to how soft it would be when it was really soft.

"I'm going to boil the salt."

Xiao Se ran to the fire with a small square scarf, left the kindling, pulled out the very fine plant ashes and put it into a bowl: "Ye Feng, we will make the basket later. Let's make a big bucket and two clay pots." good?"

"Okay." Ye Feng agreed happily.

Arthur did whatever he wanted, and he was happy.

Xiao Se took the bowl filled with plant ashes, then the bowl filled with water, and came to the stream.

Pour the water into the plant ash, and then use a small square towel to filter it into another bowl. Repeat this process until the hands of the plant ash in the bowl turn from black to gray.

Put the pottery bowl on the triangular pile and start boiling. This process is a bit long and the water inside needs to be boiled away. The gray-white particles left in the pottery bowl are potassium salt.

Xiao Se saw the white crystals appearing around the pottery bowl and was excited: "It's almost ready."

Keep it up.

When the water dries up, pull it with branches and pour it onto the leaves.

Looking at the gray powder, Xiao Se said excitedly: "Ye Feng, I brought out the salt. Come quickly."

Ye Feng dropped the basket in his hand and ran towards Xiao Se. He was also very excited: "Let me take a look."

Being able to extract salt from plant ashes is really... Arthur is so capable.

Looking at the gray crystals, Ye Feng put a little bit of it into his mouth with his fingers: "Bitter, salty."

Xiao Se also put a little bit into his mouth, and his facial features were squeezed into a small ball: "It's bitter, salty, and astringent, but it still has salt anyway. Just put a little bit when you eat it, and just go back to the tribe."

"Okay, okay." Ye Feng stared at his Arthur with burning eyes. His Arthur was really great.

A Di watched the two of them stuffing things into their mouths, and immediately rushed over, pulled Xiao Se's pants, raised his head and shouted: "Ah..."

Xiao Se was about to get some salt into A Di's mouth, but he didn't expect Ye Feng to move very quickly and put some potassium salt into A Di's mouth.

Ah Di took it into his mouth, and he didn't frown, but pointed at the bowl in Xiao Se's hand: "Ah..."

Xiao Se asked doubtfully: "Ye Feng, A Di also eats salt?"
