No.40 five days!
At dawn, Xu Le left the camp with the lumberjack orangutans, and Cang Jiao carried three sets of big saws and ropes.
Nuomi was escorted by the giant spirit to the insect nest.
Her toxicity is enough to ensure that no natural enemies can be found in the forest, and there is no problem going back by herself.
But there is no way to make up for the disadvantage of short legs for a while.
The giant spirit ran wildly in the woods with her on its back, and its speed was more than ten times faster than her own running with her short legs.
Xu Le has already let Xiaosha explore the crack created by the old insect king, and there is no need to go through the long underwater cave this time.
It took only an hour to go to the rocky cave.
The insect swarm that had just re-dormant in the insect nest the day before was dispatched again.
According to Xu Le's order, Nuomi led out fifty giant worms with the most powerful fighting power.
Each one has a thick carapace, and ordinary people can only leave a shallow trace when they smash it with all their strength with an axe.
Their toxicity is extremely violent, and one hit from the tail hook or stinger is enough to kill a bison.
Fifty poisons walked silently through the jungle, and an unknown number of animals were forced to flee their nests again along the way.
……
"Friends in the live broadcast room, we made a new saw yesterday, and today we will try the effect."
Xu Le patted a cedar tree with a diameter of one meter at breast height beside him. The cedar tree is 20 meters high. As long as the excess branches and leaves are cut off, the broken planks are good materials for building ships.
Barrage in the live broadcast room——
"expect."
"Falling the lumberjack."
"I thought it would be enough for Xu Shen to get a small raft."
"Little raft? I'm afraid we'll stop cooking if a wave comes over?"
"Xu Shen's project is getting bigger and bigger..."
"How big a boat can be made from such a big tree?"
"The size of the ship is getting bigger, can the strength keep up?"
"Sea boats are different from river boats, even if their ability to resist wind and waves is slightly smaller."
"Yeah, if it's not strong enough, it doesn't have to be overturned by the waves. The undercurrent of the sea is enough to tear the boat apart."
"For a fir tree more than 20 meters long, Xu Shen's boat must be at least ten meters long."
"Ordinary people... can't handle it?"
"a little worried……"
"..."
Two orangutans came to the side of the fir tree with their saws on their shoulders, and the other orangutans stepped aside a little.
After receiving Xu Le's signal, they used their big saws to hold the tree trunk about one meter above the ground, and began to push and pull.
The slightly beveled wooden handle allows the combined force of the orangutans to point to the center of the trunk, compressing the saw blade and wood.
The bark was cut into thin cracks, and amidst the "crack" sound produced by pushing and pulling, the incision deepened further, and sap oozed out along the incision.
When the two orangutans get tired of sawing, they will change to the other two.
After sawing in a certain distance horizontally, re-saw from a position more than 20 centimeters above the incision, and the direction of sawing is inclined downward at 45 degrees.
The end points of the two saw cuts merged into one, and the orangutan took out a wedge-shaped piece of wood from inside.
Repeat the similar work from the other end, and the whole fir tree soon begins to crumble.
Ashen Horn pressed the horn of his forehead against the shallowest side of the cut, exerted a little force, and the cedar tree fell to the other side with a loud sound.

Chapter 411 Wood Porter Swarm
The cut fir tree fell to one side, hung up a large number of branches along the way, and finally fell to the ground. Xu Le felt the ground tremble slightly under his feet.
The weight of this tree probably exceeded two or three tons, it was not the weight that Ashen Horn could easily drag.
The plate-toothed rhinoceros is powerful enough, but the terrain along the way is complicated. Even after Xiaosha's survey, the height difference and even the cliff are still unavoidable.
Dragging two or three tons of tree trunks from the cedar forest back to the shipyard is a challenge for any animal.
Even for heavy trucks, the fuel consumption is heartbreaking enough.
Ashen Horn supported the root of the trunk with its horns, and the trunk rolled to one side, and more branches were scraped off.
Orangutans with jigsaws swarmed up to trim the branches so they could be transported later.
Carpenter Xu stopped them. The wood at the top of the cedar tree was not strong enough to be used on ships.
"Cut it off from here, and keep the lower half, which is about the same thickness. This section is more than ten meters long, and it will be sliced and baked to make the hull."
The sound of sawing wood sounded again.
When the work of cutting off the canopy was completed, the rustling of swarms of insects in the woods was coming from far to near.
The white insect king appeared from between the brown tree trunks. Nuomi didn't bother to walk on his own because he had a mount, and rode on the back of the giant spirit.
Well, the cute little Meng Yiyi is used to sitting sideways on the bear's shoulders, while Nuomi squatted directly on the giant spirit's head honestly and bluntly.
It's like wearing a white steel helmet.
When she saw Xu Le, she yelled from the chat room: "I brought the coolie Baba wanted!"
Coolies are okay, but that's your own ethnic group... But Xu Le didn't correct her, call the little girl whatever you like.
The insect swarm following her dispersed, waiting for the order of the insect king.
When she became a [disciple], what Xu Le bestowed on her was skills——
【totem】!
The simple handling process does not even need to be taught too complicatedly, it is easy to learn.
As if carrying prey, the swarms came to the side of the tree trunk, arching the soil below.
Ashen Horn pressed against the tree trunk from the other side with its forehead, and turned over to one side.
The trunk was pried up to a height of several tens of centimeters, and a giant centipede crawled in close to the ground, sharing part of the weight.
Ashen Horn continued to use force, the gap between the tree trunk and the ground became bigger and bigger, more giant worms filled the gap, and soon the tree trunk completely left the ground.
The plate-toothed rhinoceros pulled back its forehead, the trunk sank down, and then it was firmly carried by more than 20 insects.
This is equivalent to half of the amount that Nuomi received, and this tree does not need all fifty giant worms to dispatch.
Xu Le asked in the group: "Nuomi, how is the status of your subordinates?"
The rustling sound that belongs to the communication method of the swarm rang for a while, and Nuomi replied: "They say it's not serious!"
It's about the same as I estimated... The muscle structure of a bug can generally carry several times or even dozens of times its own weight.
After the size is enlarged, even if the multiple does not increase, it also has a considerable increase. More than 20 giant worms carry a tree trunk weighing three to five tons on their backs.
What's more, this trunk does not have such an exaggerated weight.
"Go, go down the steep slope, pass through the shallows, and just put the trunk on the shore."
Xu Le called for an orangutan to accompany him, "Put the stone against the tree trunk so that it won't be washed away by the water."
The glutinous rice climbed onto the tree trunk, and the pheromones emitted, and the huge tree trunk began to move as if it had grown feet, and it didn't sway at all when passing the steep slope.
Barrage in the live broadcast room——
"Xu Shen just subdued the swarm two days ago, so this will be used directly?"
"Could it be that at that time Xu Shen had already planned to build ships and let them be porters?"
"Wow! What a vision!"
"Even taming bugs, Xu Shen's ability to tame wild beasts is truly enviable."
"Opening a circus will definitely make a lot of money."
"..."
While the swarms were transporting the wood, the orangutans continued to cut down the next fir tree.
The same triangle was sawed off, this time it was also a giant tree with a diameter of one meter at breast height, and the height was slightly shorter, but after removing the top tree crown, it was still ten meters high.
Xu Le deliberately selected wood with relatively consistent thickness, which is more convenient for processing.
It takes about half an hour for the orangutans to cut down a whole tree, and then it takes about a quarter of an hour to cut off the canopy...
Counting other bits and pieces of time, one hour can handle a giant log that is one meter thick and ten meters high...
It was very efficient. Carpenter Xu was quite satisfied, and decided to give the orangutans an extra meal tonight, and another meal of baked bananas topped with honey.
And the time for the swarm to carry it back and forth is about half an hour. There are [-] giant worms in one group, and the two groups take turns, and the rest time is one and a half hours.
Enough to restore stamina.
The glutinous rice is very excited, stepping on the wood and opening its white claws, pheromones enveloped its own group, and it already has the demeanor of a Zerg queen.
If she doesn't need to be hugged when she climbs the log, it will be more like...
……
Five hours, five cedar trees!
The cedar forest on the steep slope is still densely packed, and the felling of five or six cedar trees is not worth mentioning compared to the entire forest land.
However, according to Xu Le's plan, only a dozen more trees would be enough, and the fir forest would be restored to calm by then.
Xu Le measured the physical strength of the orangutans. Although it was still early, the orangutans would definitely not be able to bear it if they continued to work.
I'm not a black-hearted boss, I can't do something like taking [-] as a reward... He waved his hand: "Go down the mountain!"
The timber on the beach was stacked neatly together, and Nuomi waited for Xu Le by the beach after she issued an order to her group to return freely.
When the young insect king saw Xu Le, he raised his forelimbs. Xu Le didn't even need to look at the group to know that the little girl was asking for credit.
"The glutinous rice is well done."
He patted the cool head of the glutinous rice, and handed over the jerky that he carried with him as dry food.
The freshest fish is dried by the sea breeze and becomes a soft and chewy dried fish, which is perfect for chewing.
Sea fish also has a very light salty taste, which can replenish electrolytes lost due to sweating.
But that's not what Nuomi cares about.
As long as the small things are fed by Xu Le, they will be collected according to the order. The dried fish is clamped in the jaws, and the sharp teeth crush the meat. It is a joy to eat.
Barrage in the live broadcast room——
"It seems like a real father and daughter..."
"Hmm... other people's daughters are the reincarnated emperors, and Xu Shen's daughter is the leader of the swarm, which makes sense!"
"..."
After feeding the glutinous rice, Xu Le took off the soft vine rope that Cang Jiao had been carrying.
This is a crude rope, but the soft vines thick as thumbs are connected end to end, tied with a double fisherman's knot, and then dried in the sun to complete the work.
The flexibility and wear resistance are lackluster, but the advantage is that it can be processed in a large amount in a short period of time. What Xu Le brought this time is at least more than 50 meters.
He looped the rope around the end of one piece of wood, tied a tieknot, then around the second piece, and did the same.
Five pieces of wood were tied together in this way, forming a rather crude and primitive raft shape.
"Next, we only need to push the wood into the sea, and then we can transport it back by water."
