Chapter 124 Late Thoughts



Roofing is more than just covering the thatch.

Before this, we need to use bamboo to build a grid-like frame on the chevron frame made yesterday. The grid is about ten centimeters long and wide, and then fixed with hemp rope.

The main reason why the bamboo needs to be split in half is that bamboo is a hollow structure, and because of the existence of bamboo joints, every space inside is completely sealed. If it is placed on the roof, it will be heated and expanded in the future. It is easy to crack due to cold shrinkage, and may break the hemp rope, causing hidden dangers.

Moreover, the round bamboo is not easy to fix, but it can be pulled more firmly after splitting.

The bamboo that Zhao Ling and the others cut down didn’t seem to Ye Qing, but it was enough to build these grid frames.

Zhao Ling used a machete underneath to split the bamboo in half. Ye Qing and Funi climbed to the roof. Zhao Ling directly handed it to them after the cut, and they fixed it on the spot.

For about an hour or so, with the cooperation of the three people, the roof frame was completely completed.

The next step is to cover thatch.

Because these thatchs have been woven piece by piece by Ye Qing, it will be much more convenient. Just take them one by one, cover them from the edge, and use hemp rope to fix the thatch 467 grass and the previously built grid frame. Together.

As for why it is necessary to cover from the bottom to the top instead of from the top to the bottom, it is because the tail of the thatch is relatively loose. Layered together to form the shape of a bird’s feathers. Under such a demand, it is obviously a lot easier to cover from the bottom to the top.

After the roof is covered, the walls are covered and the floor is laid, which requires a lot of bamboo.

Because there was still some left before, Ye Qing asked Zhao Ling and the others to continue to chop the bamboo, while he began to block the house.

Chop the bamboo into bamboo strips, and then seal them side by side around the house. Zhao Ling and the others are making good progress, and they have always been able to supply enough bamboo, so Ye Qing completed the job in one go.

Now if you don’t look inside, just look from the outside, a hut is already complete.

Of course, there is also the floor, because the floor is suspended, and the bottom needs to be supported by wooden battens.

And the laid bamboo can’t be split again, just use the whole root, otherwise it will be easy to break.

The space in the house is not small, and the workload is huge. After Zhao Ling and the others (accf) finished cutting the bamboo, they also came to help. The work was not completed until the evening.

After that, Ye Qing made another door, and at the same time made a platform at the door. On both sides of the platform, two steps were made with bamboo slats to facilitate the up and down.

At this point, except for the construction of rooms not allocated inside, a hut was completely completed.

Because the sky is getting dark, Ye Qing can only work on the room tomorrow. Anyway, the general work has been completed, and I can finally take a breath after having been busy for several days.

Back in the cave, to celebrate the completion of the construction of the thatched hut, Zhao Ling made a special dinner, and all three of them had swollen stomachs.

While resting on the bamboo chairs, the three of them were chatting, and Fanny suddenly said: “What are we going to do after the house is built?”

This is a serious question. Zhao Ling and Ye Qing became serious at once. Ye Qing said: “Tomorrow I will isolate the room first, and then if I want to live in, take some time to move things over. , Then open up a field around it to grow potatoes. Let’s finish these first.

“What about after that?” Fanny asked again.

Ye Qing frowned slightly, this matter was a bit far away, although he occasionally thought about going out to explore this island, but he hadn’t made a detailed plan. Now Fanny asked, he really didn’t know how to answer for a while.

After thinking about it, I asked the two women: “What do you think?”

Zhao Ling said at this time: “I think that after the house is built, we may try to go out and explore, at least we must know the whole picture of this island, otherwise we know too little about this island, so we can Future development is very unfavorable.”

Ye Qing was a little surprised, surprised that Zhao Ling could actually say this.

You know, when I first met, this girl had been thinking about how to get outside.

It seems that he knows what Ye Qing is thinking at this time, Zhao Ling smiled indifferently, and then continued: “Obviously, there seems to be some time problems here and outside, which means that we have to live here for a long time. For a period of time, and under such circumstances, we only have a certain understanding of the surrounding environment, so that we will not be at a loss when there is another accident.

“well said.

Ye Qing praised, what Zhao Ling said was exactly what he thought in his heart.

For a long time, the concept he instilled in Zhao Ling is: Mr. survive, and then develop.

Now that their survival is no longer a problem, it’s time to expand outside.

Of course, the expansion here does not refer to aggression, but to grasp the surrounding environment.

Only by seeing more and knowing more can they know what kind of place they are.

Moreover, Ye Qing suddenly thought at this time that since he can have a special connection with Xiaolan, and can see everything that Xiaolan sees, then he can completely change his understanding of the surrounding environment.

For example, let Xiaolan fly high to see the whole island first.

Ye Qing didn’t think of this before, mainly because there was no mentality like now. At that time, it was mainly for survival, but now, it is for development. The two are completely different mentalities, and the direction of thinking about problems is naturally different.

You know, he used to rely on the map in his mind to understand the topography of this island, but the map is really too pit, and only the places he has been to are illuminated, which also means If you want to know the whole picture of this island, you have to walk through the whole island once. Using this method is really unrealistic.

But it was night now. Although Xiaolan was an owl and preferred to act at night, Ye Qing still planned to let it go out tomorrow.

After chatting with Zhao Ling and the others, the three of them went to sleep.

Early the next morning, after getting up, Ye Qing gave instructions to Xiaolan to make it fly higher and faster as much as possible. It was best to be able to see the entire island for himself.

Xiaolan happily ate the food that Ye Qing specially prepared for it and set off. Ye Qing watched its figure disappear from his field of vision from behind, feeling a little excited inexplicably.

It wasn’t until the sound of Zhao Ling asking him to eat from behind that he came back to his senses.

Seeing that his mood was a little abnormal, Zhao Ling asked casually: “What’s the matter with you?

“It’s okay, let’s eat first, there is still a lot of work to do today.” Ye Qing said with a smile.

Xiaolan hasn’t been able to tell them about this for the time being, it involves the existence of the system, so even if he really knows the whole picture of this island, he can only know about it by Ye Qing himself.
