Primal Power

Hu shook his fur coat, approached Shi, saw Shi squatting on the ground, waiting for Lin Luo to climb up, and rolled his eyelids helplessly, his younger brother really doted on Di'er.

"Brother, stand up and give it a try." The tiger stood in front of the stone, its shadow was reflected on the stone, and Shi didn't see any reaction. He still maintained his posture and waited for Lin Luo to climb up. Slowly stood up in a half-squat position.

Shi Zhengzheng was opposite to the tiger. When he stood up, the tiger realized that he hadn't seen him in these years. His younger brother was already so tall. Standing together, he was vaguely taller than himself by a pinch of hair. He didn't know that his younger brother Whether it fits or not, this animal fur coat is made according to his height.

Nervously squeezed the coat, this was the first time I gave my brother something with my own hands, and I didn't know if it would fit, so I hung the other coat on my shoulders, grabbed the two sides of the coat I made for my brother, and hugged my body I made a gesture.

It is indeed a little smaller, obviously the coat that mopped the floor only reached Shi's ankles, Hu was a little discouraged, why is it still small, but it's just a little smaller, my brother shouldn't mind it, thinking about it, put the The coat was handed to Shi:

"Brother, try wearing it, I made it myself."

Shi originally didn't want to take over, he was not cold, and he had enough animal skins, so he didn't need the animal fur coat given by the patriarch, but when he saw the patriarch's concerned eyes, his head was in a daze, and the animal fur coat had already been stuffed into it. hand.

He lowered his head and glanced at the animal fur coat in his hand, and the voice of the little female also sounded from the side, urging himself to try it quickly, Shi raised his eyelids and glanced at the patriarch who claimed to be his brother in front of him, and put on the animal fur coat on his body .

Following Lin Luo's instructions, Shi walked around wearing the overcoat. Lin Luo rested his chin on his hand, and his brows were almost wrinkled. He didn't feel that the overcoat was on his body. Shi's upper body, the problem came out. The overcoat It's too fat, and it's tied up with a long root in the middle. Shi doesn't wear it like a coat, but like a bathrobe.

It seems that it would be better to add a few buttons, but this coat is a gift from the patriarch to Shi.

Hu nodded in satisfaction. This was made by himself. Although it was a little small, Shi still looked good in it. Thinking about it, he also took off the coat on his shoulders and handed it to Lin Luo. It was made of flowers, and if I wanted to give it to Shi alone, I was afraid that the stone would not be accepted. Although my brother had a lot of coats, he still gave them as a reward.

Lin Luo waved his hand, but didn't go to pick up the animal fur coat that Hu handed over, and said, "We only need the one on Shi's body. I still have a few more. Don't waste it. The patriarch still keeps it for others." Bar"

It's not that Lin Luo doesn't give Hu face, and doesn't accept coats. The key is that there are more than ten coats that Shi brought back in his warehouse, and this doesn't include the animal skins that Shi picked up after hunting. One person's collection of animal skins is better than that of the previous tribe.

This coat is even more unacceptable. A warm animal fur coat can save a person's life in this cold winter. It is not a waste to give it to oneself, it is better to give it to others.

I am still thinking about how to take out the animal skins in the warehouse for the people in the tribe. There are too many animal skins in my warehouse, and I can't use them up, but Lin Luo doesn't want to give them to everyone for free. It's not that Lin Luo is stingy, It's just that if this kind of thing happens for the first time, there will be a second time, and it's not good for everyone to take it for granted.

It would be great if there was a market, even if there were fewer things to exchange, it would still be rewarding.

"Let's go back together." Seeing this, Hu didn't say much, he put away the fur coat in his hand, greeted him, and planned to go back with Lin Luo and the others as soon as they arrived.I still have a lot of things to do, the snow season is coming too fast, and there are still many things I am not prepared for.

Shi squatted down, with one knee on the ground, his heel on his buttocks, and his hands stretched a little behind, waiting for Lin Luo to pounce on him and lead Lin Luo back to the cave.

Lin Luo put his hands around Shi's neck, put his toes against the animal skin on the ground, and silently said "receive" in his heart, and the animal skin entered the warehouse. This is what Lin Luo discovered in the past few days, not only his own hands, but When any part of your body touches something and thinks about putting it in, they will automatically enter the warehouse.

If it goes on like this, it might be possible to collect things in the air soon, Lin Luo couldn't help thinking in his heart.

After seeing the tiger go away, Lin Luo learned from the pain and made up his mind to get a pair of shoes. It would be too troublesome for Shi to carry them all day, and he couldn't even walk around.

There are only two ways Lin Luo can think of to make straw sandals. One is to weave straw sandals. Although it is not very common in life, Lin Luo often weaves straw sandals when reading novels. The key to the problem is that Lin Luo does not know how to weave at all. Well, the utensils made of bamboo, at least Lin Luo often sees them in daily life, and they can be imitated.

But Lin Luo had only heard about straw sandals, and hadn't seen her real body yet, so she couldn't do it if she wanted to, and it's winter, even if Lin Luo wanted to make straw sandals, she had to see if she could wear them. go out.

If you think about it this way, there is only one way left, and that is cloth shoes. There is also a poem that says: the thread in the hands of a loving mother, and the clothes on the body of a wanderer, are tightly stitched before leaving, and I am afraid that I will return later.

Although the poem says that it describes clothes, in Lin Luo's view, it has a lot to do with shoes, especially the line about the tight seams before leaving. When Lin Luo was watching TV, ancient shoes were all made of cloth. Cloth shoes, also known as the sole, the denser and thicker the seams, the more durable they are.

Compared with straw sandals, Lin Luo felt that cloth shoes were easier to make. Now that there were needles and threads, it was easy to make as long as he prepared things himself.

When Lin Luo watches TV, the shoe soles are stitched together with two or more pieces of fabric with parallel stitches, over and over again, to increase the durability of the soles, but this is too troublesome, Lin Luo does not intend to do this .

Lin Luo has seen a simpler method. When she saw the aunt next door making cloth shoes on the balcony, she just glued the cut cloth one by one with paste to form a cloth board. The cloth boards are left to dry in the sun until the cloth boards become hard.

After drying, put the prepared template on the cloth board, draw the outline with a pen, cut out the outline, and sew it.

Thinking about it, Lin Luo also started to pick out a piece of animal skin from the warehouse, and first cut it out according to his own feet, because there was no such thing as cardboard, so he could only use animal skin instead. After it comes out, put it aside, cut the animal skin used to make the sole and upper into a rectangle, and then start making the paste.

Paste is much easier. If you cut the model, you have to trim it at the edge. It must be symmetrical. Add cold water to the flour, cook on a small fire and stir in one direction until it becomes a paste. This paste is often boiled when posting couplets during the Spring Festival. After a while, a large bowl of paste will be cooked. .

Spread the paste on the animal hide, and glue two large animal hides together. There should be no wrinkles, it must be smooth, and then you can take it to dry in the sun. This sticky thing also dries quickly, so take it outside and blow it. After the downwind, it was dried into a hard board after being roasted with a fire.

The next step is to cut the sole and upper according to the model. This step is a bit difficult. Take out a knife and let Shi He himself cut it slowly against the model.

Shi didn't ask too much, Lin Luo could do whatever he asked, Shi's hands were strong, as long as he spread the pattern on the animal skin and drew it in circles, he could cut out a complete shoe sole, but Lin Luo didn't care. It's the same, the strength of the hand is weak, and it usually takes several strokes to cut through. A good piece of animal skin is scratched east and west.

After cutting out the sole and upper, it will be much easier. You only need to sew the two around the edges, and a pair of shoes will be made. After a while, it is just right, but the edges are not very beautiful, and they are all traces of needlework.

After thinking for a while, Lin Luo asked to cut out a long strip of cloth that was half a finger wide, and planned to do some piping. This is very easy, just fold the strip into double sides, and paste it on the seam between the sole and the upper. Just stick it in a circle.

A piece of animal skin was wasted by Lin Luo, but he still made three pairs of shoes. Lin Luo was very happy. He hurriedly wore them and went out for a walk and came back to try them out. His feet were indeed not cold, but his ankles were still blown. It was red, red, and it seemed that I still needed to get a pair of boots.

Shi followed Lin Luo, glanced at the deep and shallow footprints in the snow, stared at the animal skin on the little female's feet in a daze, how did the little female come up with something that made animal skin into "shoes" , Wrapped on the feet, so that the feet are not afraid of being red from the cold, the little female is really smart, it seems that she has to hide a little bit tighter.

Turning his head, he saw Shi staring at his shoes in a daze. Then he remembered that Shi was not wearing anything on his feet. He was concerned about his own happiness, so why did he forget that Shi also made a pair of shoes instead of a coat? , I can help make a pair of boots.

Thinking about it, he pulled Shi behind him and ran towards the cave, saying, "Shi, go back to the cave, I'll make a pair for you too."

The exhaled white air left afterimages behind him.
