Travel through the beast world with the famine system
Chapter 35 Making Candles
The multicolored rice was finally planted, and Ciye was really relieved, a big stone in his heart fell to the ground, and the next step was to take good care of these rice seedlings to grow.
The rainy season weather in this world is changeable, the sky is still clear one second, and the next second is cloudy, with lightning and thunder.This kind of weather has caused the hot and humid climate characteristics of the rainy season, and various snakes, rats and mosquitoes are also emerging in an endless stream.
"Snapped!"
Cuba stretched out his hand to slap, and a huge mosquito was crushed to pieces in his palm.
"The rainy season is so hard! Why are there so many bugs! It's been raining outside, so I can't go out to play anymore..." Gu Li lay by the window, looking at the dark sky with rolling clouds and dense rain.
"Huh! The rainy season is already the most stable today. If it weren't for Wu, we would still be living in the cave and worry about whether the cave would collapse. Where can we live in such a good house? You can be content!" Cuban Shaking his head, he said with emotion.
"I know, father!" Gu Li showed a bright and ingratiating smile, jumped to Cuba's side, and took his arm with her hand, "I just want to go out to play with Jinze, and I heard that Wu is making good things again recently. I don't know how it tastes like?"
"Hmph! Why do you want to hang out with that brat in Kanazawa every day!" Cuba frowned and said seriously.
Gu Li's mother passed away very early, and he raised Gu Li by himself, but instead of kissing him, Gu Li followed that stupid lion in Jinze every day, really annoying!
"Oh! I just want to go with him to see what Wu is doing. I'll be back soon!" Gu Li acted coquettishly, trying to soften Cuba's heart.
Cuba looked at his coquettish daughter, his heart softened to water, but he still had a serious expression on his face.
Gu Li is his most beloved child. The animal form inherits the appearance of her mother's white tiger, and the human form is also very similar to her mother. When seeing Gu Li acting like a baby, I feel very soft-hearted.
"Ahem! Then you can go, but you can't go to Jinze, you can only go to the witch, put on my coir raincoat, and go there with my umbrella." Cuba let go and agreed.
"I knew Father was good to me!" Gu Li jumped up happily, kissed Cuba on the cheek, then took the coir raincoat and umbrella on the cabinet, opened the door and ran out.
Cuba was kissed by his daughter who was on the tip of his heart, and his heart was full of joy. He watched Gu Li run out of the house with a smile, and sighed with relief.
Really, my daughter has grown up so much...
Bang bang bang!
"Kanaze! Open the door! I'm here to play with you!"
"Who is it?" Jin Ze opened the door, only to find Gu Li in a coir raincoat standing in front of him.
"Gu Li! Why are you here?!" Jin Ze was surprised and delighted, and immediately welcomed Gu Li into the house.
"How did you come out in such a heavy rain? Uncle Cuba agreed with you to come out?" Jin Ze asked.
"Oh! I've been staying at home for several days. It's been raining recently, and I haven't come out to play with you!" Gu Li twisted her silver hair with her hands and squeezed out the water, "I heard that Wu You We are making new things, let's go to Wu's place to play together! How about it?"
Looking at Gu Li's shining eyes, Jin Ze couldn't help saying, "Okay, then let's go and see together!"
"Yeah! That's great!" Gu Li cheered happily, her wet hair sticking to her forehead.
"Let's go! Do you want to talk to your father and mother?" Gu Li pulled Jinze up and was about to walk out the door.
"No need!" Jin Ze rolled his eyes, "The two of them always stay in the room, how can they have time to care about me!"
"That's good! Then let's go find the witch!" Gu Li put on her coir raincoat again, opened the door and was about to rush out.
"Wait a minute!" Jin Ze stopped Gu Li, "What if I don't have a coir raincoat?"
"Hey!" Gu Li stopped.Yes!Coir raincoats and umbrellas are made by Wu himself, and are used by some management orcs in the tribe, because they have to move around frequently. Both Cuba and Dajin have coir raincoats and umbrellas, but they can’t ask Dajin for them now.
"Then let's walk together. I have an umbrella, which should be able to cover the two of us. I'm wearing a coir raincoat, so I only need a little umbrella." Gu Li suggested after thinking about it.
"Alright then!" Jin Ze nodded, took the umbrella from Gu Li, stuck close to her, and walked side by side into the rain.
Time goes back to when the heavy rain just started.
Ci Ye looked at the dark sky outside the window at home, the heavy rain kept falling like broken beads, and the whole world was in the rain.
I didn't expect the rainy season here to be so terrible!Ci Ye thought to himself.It has been raining in the past few days, but the temperature is also high, and the weather is very muggy, a bit like the tropical rainforest climate of the earth.
Insect-repelling grass was smoked inside the room, and there was a bitter and fragrant smell, but there was no sunlight, making the room look gloomy.
Recently, it has been cloudy and there is no sunlight. Not only the outdoors, but also the indoors are as dark as night, and I can't see things. It seems that I need to make some items for lighting...
"Black Yao, can orcs see clearly at night?" Ci Ye suddenly remembered that the physique of orcs might be different from his own, and I wonder if they can see at night.
Obsidian shook his head: "No, orcs can only see things with blurred outlines at night, and they can't see them clearly. We all rely on smell and hearing to identify objects in the dark."
Well, I still need to make something for lighting.Ci Ye thought about it, and opened the [Lighting] box on the system toolbar, which gave out many lighting tools:
Torches, miner hats, jack-o'-lanterns, lanterns, mushroom lights, umbrella lights...
To make lighting tools, the most basic materials are glowing fluorescent bugs and glowing mushrooms or fluorescent fruits, both of which have been seen by Ci Ye.
The red-spotted mushrooms that were just discovered in this world can glow, but they are poisonous and cannot be eaten; and the crescent bugs in the tree monkey tribe are also insects that can glow at night.
If you have time in the future, you can transplant some luminescent mushrooms, and then go to the tree monkey tribe to catch some crescent bugs and reproduce them, Ciye plans.But at present, neither of these two materials can be obtained, so we have to think of other ways.
There is a [Hamlet item] module in the system, and there are [street lamps] that can be made, but the street lamps are illuminated by torches, which are easy to extinguish in reality, and it is not advisable.
Scratching his head, it seems that the system can't help much, and he can only rely on the knowledge in his mind. Ci Ye remembered a common item on the earth - a candle.
On Earth, candles originated from primitive torches.Primitives coated bark or wood chips with fat or wax and tied them together to make torches for lighting.However, candles made of animal fat, because of the glycerin in them, have a smoky flame when burned, and the smell is unpleasant.
Beeswax may be the rudiment of the candles seen today. Beeswax is extracted from the hive to make candles.
At present, Ci Ye doesn't have a honeycomb on hand, and he doesn't want to use animal fat to make candles, but he has another thing - lacquer fruit.
There is a waxy skin on the peel of the lacquer fruit, which can be used to extract wax, and the juice of the lacquer fruit can be used to extract oil.Squeeze oil from lacquer fruit, mix it with wax, pour it into a mold, and after it condenses, it becomes a candle.
After thinking about how to make candles, Ci Ye immediately notified Feng Ka's craft team to make candles with him.
In Ci Ye's house, everyone was busy in full swing.
Feng Ka deftly scraped off the waxy skin of the lacquer fruit with a stone knife, with superb skills, without damaging the inner skin, and then put the lacquer fruit into the basket.
Katya turned into a beast shape and became a majestic cheetah, pulling the mill on the side, putting the lacquer fruit under the milling plate, and it was quickly crushed to produce fruit oil.
A Hua sat on the chair on the other side, melting the waxy skin into a wax liquid, then mixed the squeezed fruit oil, and poured it into the slender bamboo tube.
There is a candle wick made of twine inside the bamboo tube, which is glued to the bottom of the bamboo tube with snow glue, and then pulled to the top, so that after the candle solidifies, a complete candle with a candle head is ready.
"Ah Hua, how are the candles solidified?" Ci Ye put down the stone knife in his hand, rubbed his arms, and calculated in his heart that the first batch of candles should be formed.
"Witch! Let me take a look!" A'hua took off the mold outside the candle, trimmed off the extra wick, and a beautiful orange candle appeared in front of everyone.
"Wow!" Seeing the delicate and lovely candles, the orcs in the room all made admiring voices in unison.
"Don't worry, let's light a candle and see how it goes!" Ci Ye also smiled with satisfaction, dyed the flame with a grass stalk, approached the wick, and lit it.
Small orange-red sparks bloomed on the candle, timid at first, then emboldened after a while, illuminating a large corner.
The candlelight rose in the dim room, and Ci Ye lit the other candles one after another, spreading out a sea of light, reflecting the shadows of everyone on the wall, creating a warm and sweet atmosphere.
"It's so beautiful!" Katya couldn't help expressing emotion when she saw the little delicate candles emitting a little bit of light, converging into an ocean of light. ,
"Yes! The candle is so beautiful! It doesn't smoke as much as the torch!" Ah Hua also nodded in admiration, with deep love in her eyes.
"Wu! Wu! What are you doing?!" There was a sudden shout outside the door, which was not very clear in the majestic rain.
Ci Ye opened the door, and a gust of wind mixed with rain came in, blowing out the candlelight, and everyone showed regretful expressions on their faces.
"It's Guli, and Jinze, why are you here? Come in quickly!" Seeing the two little orcs outside the door who were soaked in rain, Ci Ye asked in surprise.
After closing the door, Ci Ye went into the bedroom and took out a clean animal skin, and wiped it for the two children.
"Gu Li said Wu was making new things again, so I insisted on coming over to take a look, so I came with her." Jin Ze explained, and then sneezed loudly.He put down his umbrella, turned into a beast shape, and shook off the water droplets from his body.
Gu Li took off the coir raincoat, stroked the wet hair on her forehead, and showed a bright smile: "Hey! I didn't know that it was raining so hard outside, and I could still get wet with an umbrella. Fortunately, we ran fast!"
Gu Li put down her coir raincoat and transformed herself, a silver-white tiger appeared in front of Ci Ye.
Ci Ye saw Gu Li's animal shape for the first time, but he didn't expect it to be so special!The silver-white hair shone like pure silver in the dark room, and it matched Kanazawa's shiny golden hair perfectly.
"Then you don't have to run over in the rain, what should you do if you get sick in the rain?" Ci Ye shook his head helplessly, and scolded the two reckless children.
"Oh! Wu, we know we are wrong! I just want to see what delicious food you made. I have been staying at home recently. I am almost bored to death. I can only play beast chess with my father. My father is not good at chess. Not good..." Gu Li changed back into a human form, wiped her wet hair with the animal skin, pursed her mouth and acted like a baby.
"Guli, Jinze, we're not making food, look!" Ah Hua said to the two of them holding a lit candle.
"What, what is this?!" Seeing the exquisite candles burning with small candles, Gu Li and Jin Ze's eyes widened.
"This is a candle, which is used for lighting. You can see things clearly when you put it in the room, and it will make the night look like the day." A'hua explained, holding the candle in her hand carefully, and she couldn't hide her face. Live happily.
"This is too amazing!" Gu Li moved lightly, and quietly moved to the side of the candle, for fear of disturbing the little flame, "It's so beautiful!"
Ci Ye bent the corner of his mouth, smiled and rubbed Gu Li's head: "Since you're here, help us make candles, and you can share some with each family at night."
Gu Li nodded excitedly: "Okay! I also want to make beautiful candles! Then I can play chess with Father at night!"
The other orcs also laughed quietly.Just now I thought my father was not good at chess, but now I want to play chess with my father at night, how arrogant!
"Okay then! Then you stay and help, go get two stools, you two make candles with Ah Hua, let him teach you." Ci Ye smiled softly, and assigned the work between the two.
"Yeah!" Gu Li and Jin Ze cheered, and went to move the stool happily.
The author has something to say: Tonight I suddenly remembered that there are still two books I haven't read, and the research project needs to hand in the reading notes, which is very troublesome!I can only stay up late... [Melancholy]
Get out my black coffee, come on!
The rainy season weather in this world is changeable, the sky is still clear one second, and the next second is cloudy, with lightning and thunder.This kind of weather has caused the hot and humid climate characteristics of the rainy season, and various snakes, rats and mosquitoes are also emerging in an endless stream.

"Hmph! Why do you want to hang out with that brat in Kanazawa every day!" Cuba frowned and said seriously.
Gu Li's mother passed away very early, and he raised Gu Li by himself, but instead of kissing him, Gu Li followed that stupid lion in Jinze every day, really annoying!
"Oh! I just want to go with him to see what Wu is doing. I'll be back soon!" Gu Li acted coquettishly, trying to soften Cuba's heart.
Cuba looked at his coquettish daughter, his heart softened to water, but he still had a serious expression on his face.
Gu Li is his most beloved child. The animal form inherits the appearance of her mother's white tiger, and the human form is also very similar to her mother. When seeing Gu Li acting like a baby, I feel very soft-hearted.

"I knew Father was good to me!" Gu Li jumped up happily, kissed Cuba on the cheek, then took the coir raincoat and umbrella on the cabinet, opened the door and ran out.
Cuba was kissed by his daughter who was on the tip of his heart, and his heart was full of joy. He watched Gu Li run out of the house with a smile, and sighed with relief.
Really, my daughter has grown up so much...
Bang bang bang!
"Kanaze! Open the door! I'm here to play with you!"
"Who is it?" Jin Ze opened the door, only to find Gu Li in a coir raincoat standing in front of him.
"Gu Li! Why are you here?!" Jin Ze was surprised and delighted, and immediately welcomed Gu Li into the house.
"How did you come out in such a heavy rain? Uncle Cuba agreed with you to come out?" Jin Ze asked.
"Oh! I've been staying at home for several days. It's been raining recently, and I haven't come out to play with you!" Gu Li twisted her silver hair with her hands and squeezed out the water, "I heard that Wu You We are making new things, let's go to Wu's place to play together! How about it?"

"Yeah! That's great!" Gu Li cheered happily, her wet hair sticking to her forehead.
"Let's go! Do you want to talk to your father and mother?" Gu Li pulled Jinze up and was about to walk out the door.
"No need!" Jin Ze rolled his eyes, "The two of them always stay in the room, how can they have time to care about me!"
"That's good! Then let's go find the witch!" Gu Li put on her coir raincoat again, opened the door and was about to rush out.
"Wait a minute!" Jin Ze stopped Gu Li, "What if I don't have a coir raincoat?"
"Hey!" Gu Li stopped.Yes!Coir raincoats and umbrellas are made by Wu himself, and are used by some management orcs in the tribe, because they have to move around frequently. Both Cuba and Dajin have coir raincoats and umbrellas, but they can’t ask Dajin for them now.
"Then let's walk together. I have an umbrella, which should be able to cover the two of us. I'm wearing a coir raincoat, so I only need a little umbrella." Gu Li suggested after thinking about it.
