Crossing to Live in the Wilderness Plains

Chen Qi simply used charcoal ash to draw the required room structure on the ground. Although using a rope as a measuring tool would be a bit inaccurate, it can only do so now.

Ali kept watching Chen Qi sprinkle charcoal ash on the stretched path of the rope, and when Chen Qi was finally done, he pointed at the small squares surrounded by black circles, "Chen Qi, what are these for? ?"

Chen Qi looked at the place he was pointing, and replied, "It was prepared to be dug and then put in the stego-keel to be used as a pillar."

"How deep are you going to dig?"

Chen Qi visually measured the height of the keel, and the keel was about four meters long. After thinking about it, he replied, "It's about half a person's depth."

"Do you dig according to the range drawn by the black circle?" Ali turned on the curious baby mode and continued to ask.

"Yeah." Chen Qi replied, thinking of the bones that Aze helped to polish yesterday, he went back to the house to look for them, and found that the sharpness of the bones had been polished to almost the same extent. It was a mistake not to make this thing into a **** last night. Otherwise you can use it now.

There was no long wooden stick suitable for making hoes in the house, so Chen Qixian turned out the pectin and put it in the fire to melt, and planned to use it later when making hoes.

When he went out, he saw Carlo lying on the ground, and when he saw Chen Qi coming out, Carlo quickly waved, "Chen Qi, come and have a look."

When Ali heard the sound, he also stuck his head out of a pit in the open space where the house was being built, and shouted at Chen Qi, "Chen Qi, is this depth okay?"

Chen Qi was startled, and hurriedly walked over to take a look. After so long, Ali had already dug a half-human-high pillar pit. "How did you dig so fast?"

"Uncle Ali is a female."

Chen Qi choked, this is really a strong reason, it seems that his bone **** is not comparable in front of a female's nails.

Chen Qi circled around the pillar pit a few times, "Let's put the stego-keel in it and see the effect."

Chen Qi went to the place where the stegosaurus was piled up and wanted to carry the keel. Don't look at Ake being able to carry Carlo on his back and carrying a keel with a relaxed face. Chen Qi almost went straight when he picked up the keel. He couldn't get up, and when he let go because he couldn't hold it, he almost hit his foot. Fortunately, he was fine when he flashed quickly. Ali couldn't see it, so he hurried over to help, reached out and took it easily, Chen Qi touched his nose a little embarrassedly.

After the stegosaurus was placed in the column pit, it still looked the same.

At this time, Aze also came back from the water. I heard that Chen Qi wanted to build the pillar pit for the keel like a house, so he went to the river to dig up two large bags of sediment and came back. The houses of the orcs are very simple. Mix the melted pectin with sand and water, pour it into the large stone slabs stacked up, and wait for the moisture in the pumice and sand to dry, and then the house is built. .

Naturally, the pillar pit cannot be stuffed into the slate, but there are many finely broken stones in the wilderness, and Azer melted another pomegranate. While waiting for Azer to mix the sand and pumice, Chen Qi brought the other two. People collected a lot of these finely broken stones, then put a layer of gravel in the pillar pit, poured a layer of pumice sand, and then put new gravel on top, and so on, until the pillar pit was filled. All that's left is to wait for it to dry.

In order to prevent the stego-keel from being too high and tilted to one side, Chen Qi also made a simple tripod with a long wooden stick to fix the position of the stego-keel. In this way, a foundation pillar is basically completed.

Chen Qi didn't want to waste time, and planned to do the rest of the pillars like this. In this case, there would not be enough stegosaurus and jelly fruit, so a few people split up, Aze went to get the stegosaurus, and A Li took Chen Qi and Carlo with him. Go pick gummies.

Chen Qi and the others came back after picking the gum fruit, and saw that Ake and A Zhang also came back carrying their prey. Today is the gazelle. Because he promised to help Chen Qi build a house yesterday, Ake and A Zhang came back early at noon today. They had hunted enough food for the day and came back. Ake also brought back a few sweet potatoes. Luo stuffed the potato vine he brought back into his backpack, and told Ake to dig it back when he saw something similar. He didn't expect that Ake really came across one when he was hunting today.

With the addition of two female sons, the progress is naturally a lot faster. Before lunch, all twelve pillar pits were dug, and twelve keel bones were also brought back.

Because he didn't want to waste time, Chen Qi still made roasted whole lamb at noon. This time Ali and Carlo also came to help. They also brought two salt stones over today. Chen Qi taught the two while waiting for the antelope meat to be cooked. How to filter and refine the salt stone, Ake and A Zhang also sat next to them and carefully wrote down the steps.

The dandelion was already eaten yesterday, and Chen Qi, the warthog viscera left over last night, sautéed a few slices of wild **** directly, cut two succulents and poured them into a pottery plate. Chen Qi was worried that the succulents were too sweet, so he added them. Mixing some water together, with the sweet potatoes that Ake found today, Chen Qi made a pottery plate full of sweet potato syrup. Although it was the first time for several people to eat something like syrup, they all showed that After different degrees of liking, A-Zhang also asked A-ke to give him the potato vines he found today, and planned to look for it himself tomorrow.

"This kind of sweet potato can be stored for a long time, and the longer it is stored, the sweeter it will become. If you find a lot, you can store some and eat them in winter."

"Chen Qi, you are so amazing, how do you know so much? Do you still know that there is something as delicious as this sweet potato?"

Chen Qi hilariously filled his empty bamboo tube again, "Yes, there are still many delicious things that you haven't eaten yet. I'll tell you next time if I find out."

"It's settled." Carlo took the bamboo tube refilled with sugar water and ate it happily again, completely forgetting that there was a whole gazelle roasting on the fire next to it, but the beasts would eat meat every day. Eating it is naturally not as attractive as this new sugar water. Chen Qi sighed softly. He should put the sugar water after meals as dessert.

After the meal, Chen Qi was called aside by Ali, and the others were responsible for cleaning up the mess. Although everyone wiped out the large pottery plate of sugar water first, there were four females, and a gazelle naturally also Impossible to be left.

A Li handed Chen Qi a few pieces of cloth that he brought in the morning, "This is something I knitted and kept when I had nothing to do before. Let me use it for you first."

"But I haven't paid you for the cloth last time."

"I gave it to you." Ali smiled and shoved the cloth into Chen Qi's arms, "You taught me how to make a backpack and how to set up traps. I also set up a few traps around the tribe to catch hares this morning. , if you can catch the prey, what's the matter with a few pieces of cloth. Besides, Aze used a lot of prey to exchange for those useless pottery back from me, you can also think that he paid in advance for this. ."

Chen Qi hesitated for a while and then stopped delaying. Anyway, he still has to deal with Ali for a long time. If he wants to pay, he is not in a hurry. With these pieces of cloth, he can finally replace him. That's what I've been wearing for days.

After resting for a while, everyone resumed their busy work. It takes a lot of water to mix the gum and sand. A Zhang and A Ze are responsible for fetching water and dredging the sand. All four animal skin backpacks are used. Several other people collected the nearby rubble, and Ake, who was too large, was responsible for smashing them.

It wasn't until almost evening that the twelve keel bones were finished. Chen Qi was so tired that he couldn't even stand up when he sat on the ground. Aze poured a half-bamboo tube to cool him with boiling water, and Chen Qi took it. Come over and gulugulu directly and drink upside down.

"Carlo, I'm going to leave for one night tomorrow, so you don't have to come here. I'll send Chen Qi to the tribe in the morning. Do you still keep the room I stayed in before? Let Chen Qi stay there for one night, and I will the day after tomorrow. I'll pick him up." Azer said to Carlo, who was also tired sitting next to him.

Although Carlo was tired, he was not reluctant to move without Chen Qi lying on the ground. He was leaning comfortably on Ake's shoulder and asked Ake to rub his sore shoulders. Hearing Azer's words, he raised his head, " Brother, where are you going?"

"He is going to get the locust dragon's eyes and come back. We saw a locust dragon that had been dead for a long time on the way back." Chen Qi explained.

"What are you doing with Locust Dragon's eyes?" Ali interjected. Locust Dragon's eyes are thin and hard, what can they be used for?

"To be the windows of the house."

"Window? What is a window?"

"It's about allowing people to see what's outside the house."

A-Chang's eyes lit up, so wouldn't it be dark inside the house? "Chen Qi, you must call me when you want to make a window. You are not allowed to finish it secretly."

"Me too, me too." Carlo raised his hand quickly. Although he didn't quite understand what a window was, it must be useful to see Ah Zhang's reaction.

Chen Qi nodded helplessly, "Okay." With them around, the progress of the house could be faster. Of course Chen Qi would be happy to let them come.

Chen Qi had been busy all day and really didn't want to move. Aze went to the place where the trap was set up while everyone else was there to see if he had caught any prey during the day. Carlo didn't know where the energy came from. Said to see the trap and quickly followed. But maybe it's the reason that the hares around have been caught almost. This time, Aze only brought back one hare.

After collecting the prey from the trap, the Carlos and the others went back to the tribe. Chen Qi originally wanted to take the other gazelle they hunted back at noon, but they were unwilling. Later, it was proposed to roast the gazelles and let them go after dinner, but A Zhang said that there are still many things to do in the tribe, and it is more dangerous to go back on the way too late, so Chen Qi can only give up.

After a few people left, Chen Qi sat outside the door looking at the dozen or so stego-keel bones standing next to the setting sun, filled with a sense of satisfaction.

This is his future home.
