Living in the Wilderness Becomes Stronger

Chapter 206 How to Choose (4 more to order)
"Probably not. After all, there are still big trees around here, and I have no intention of cutting them down." Xu Yi explained that she had naturally considered this issue.

Now, we can't cut down all the trees around the camp like we did before.

Those giant beasts in the sky will come to attack.

If you clear all the surrounding trees, it means putting yourself in danger.

"That's true. If the peripheral ones are not cut down, they will be more difficult to get down." Lu Ke said with confidence, after all, the flying giants don't look easy to mess with.

Although the location of the stilted building is relatively large, they will make the roof.Therefore, the threat in the air will not cause them any harm for the time being.

Of course, Xu Yi chose to cut down a few trees in order to broaden his horizons.

Xu Yi sawed another piece of log and handed it to Lu Ke. Then he used the method of last night to protect himself with a hemp rope, and then chopped down the three big trees in the middle.

The rest of the three trees are about three meters long.

This height is the height of the floor of the stilted building.

Xu Yi felt that as long as it wasn't able to fly, there should be very few animals that wanted to jump so high.If it is higher, it will be very inconvenient, and it is easy to be struck by lightning.

Therefore, he felt that such a height was already the limit.

Right now, the most difficult thing to do is to get on the beam.

Such a height is not so easy to operate.

Especially the beam on the top is over six meters, and the distance between the two ends is also more than six meters.

But Xu Yi decided to challenge himself. If this stilted building is completed, it will be dozens of times safer than their last camp.Therefore, it is worthwhile to pay more energy and time.

After cutting down the three trees in the middle, Xu Yi put on his hunting bow and went out with the machete in hand.

Because, he needs to find wood suitable for making beams, and preferably find plants suitable for roofing.

But Xu Yi went out for more than an hour and got nothing.

He didn't dare to stay too far away, fearing that Lu Ke would be attacked, so Xu Yi returned.

When he returned to the camp, Lu Ke was fetching water with the wooden bucket.

"Xu Yi, look, I've made a bucket." As he spoke, Lu Ke happily picked up a bucket of water.

She drilled two holes with her dagger, and then pierced it with bark so she could carry it.

"That's right, the efficiency is quite high. In this way, after we have lunch, we can go out and look for suitable young trees." Xu Yi said that he couldn't leave Lu Ke alone, so he could only take him with him.

And if she is there, the damage of the attack will increase, and it will be easier to deal with wild beasts.

"Well, at night, I can get out another wooden barrel. Xu Yi, let's make another wooden barrel. It feels much easier than pottery." Lu Ke felt that he hadn't used this method before, What a waste of time.

A piece of pottery, especially large pottery, takes several days to shape the embryo.After it is done, it will take a few days to dry.Moreover, its failure rate is not low.

And with this method, one can be finished in half a day, I don't know how much time can be saved.

For small pieces, pottery can be considered.

"Well, these trees are hard on the outside and soft on the inside, so they are indeed suitable for making wooden barrels." Xu Yi nodded. They still needed some containers.

For lunch, it is still stew.

Because the water flow is relatively slow and the temperature is not high, Xu Yi put the meat at the bottom of the water. It is too much to say, but it can be preserved for a day.

After the lunch meal, there was less than a catty of meat left.

However, it is still a good choice to use it to stew some broth on the Internet and then serve it with jerky.

After lunch, the two extinguished the fire and set off to look for trees.

The top of the pottery jar is covered with layers of branches to protect the honey.

In this way, if it was stolen and eaten by other animals, Xu Yi and Lu Ke would have no choice but to admit it.

After all, besides this, he couldn't think of any other way.

The two walked upstream for three hours without seeing any suitable trees.

However, there are also some gains.

Two people shot two rabbits and one wild duck.

Xu Yi was quite surprised that there were wild ducks here.

No, wild ducks are relatively small, weighing less than three catties. If the bones are removed, there will be no meat.

The two rabbits are still relatively fat, and each looks like five or six catties.After all, they are not a dozen breeds, and it would be nice to be so heavy.

Both rabbits were shot by Lu Ke. Her accuracy is getting better and better now, and her reaction is very fast.

Of course, if Xu Yi was using the short crossbow, he could do the same.Compared with the hunting bow, it can shoot directly without having to work hard to open the bow.

"Xu Yi, should we go back?" Lu Ke glanced at the time, if he didn't look back, it might be dark when the two of them go back.

"Walk for half an hour, and then run back." Xu Yi was still not reconciled, and decided to continue exploring for a certain distance.

Lu Ke nodded and did not refute Xu Yi.

If he ran back, he would indeed be able to arrive before dark.

"Look, what is that?" Xu Yi suddenly pointed to the front and said.

"Bamboo, bamboo?" Lu Ke's eyes couldn't help but brighten up, he didn't expect there to be bamboo in such a forest.

"It shouldn't be bamboo, they don't seem to have any bamboo joints." Xu Yi said after taking a look.

"You can see clearly from such a distance?" Lu Ke glanced at Xu Yi in surprise.

Well, as expected, the eyesight is not enhanced, only hearing.

Xu Yi muttered to himself, thinking that if Lu Ke's hearing, eyesight, and sense of smell were all improved, then his sign-in gift pack would have no advantage.

"Fortunately, it's not very clear, let's go and have a look." Xu Yi said, and quickened his pace.

After walking in, Xu Yi felt that these should not be bamboo.

But after a knife, he felt that these plants should be bamboo.

No, it is a kind of bamboo without bamboo joints, it is hollow, and its fiber structure is no different from that of bamboo.

The height is about seven or eight meters, and its hardness and flexibility are stronger than normal bamboo.

It is a pity that the number of these no-section bamboos is limited, only 27 in total, three of which are half-thin, and have not yet hardened, and a fingernail can snap off a piece.

"Xu Yi, I think it's better to set up a camp here to save time. After all, we only have wooden barrels and clay jars, and two clay pots can be moved here in one trip. However, there is no festival here. It will take a lot of time to cut the bamboo and move it back." Lu Ke gave a suggestion, although Xu Yi spent a lot of time cutting down the trees, if he was here, it would be enough to cut down seven trees. .

Go back, or stay?
　Four watches late.
