Chapter 38: Time is Short

Because of the skill book, the process of making stone adze went very smoothly.

However, the mall does not have a skill book for making stone axes, and Ye Qing can only find it out.

Zhao Ling originally wanted to help, but even Ye Qing didn't think about how to do it, so she didn't understand even more. After watching for a while, she walked away.

Of course, Zhao Ling was not idle either, she couldn't help here, she still had something to do.

According to what we discussed last night, after Ye Qing makes the stone axe, he will start to make some simple furniture, but because there is no tools, these furniture will be very rough, especially the wooden bed, if you sleep directly on it, it will be very awkward. .

So Zhao Ling’s job at this time was to find some leaves nearby to put on it.

Besides, this cave has just moved over. It is empty and there is nothing. It is very necessary to pick up some dry wood and put it in it for occasional needs.

On Ye Qing's side, after thinking for a while, he made up his mind.

He began to pick up the stone adze and tinker with the wood he brought back.

He first cut one of the ends with a stone adze to a size suitable for holding, and then polished it.

Leave a length of about ten centimeters on the other end, and leave it untouched after peeling.

Ye Qing intends to cut a hole the size of the stone axe made before, and insert the stone axe into it to make it easier to fix.

But because there is no chisel, the stone adze is too big and wide, this process can only be drilled slowly with a saber.

After deciding the size on the tree trunk, Ye Qing took out the saber, clamped the handle of the knife with the palms of both hands, and began to drill on it.

This work is extremely time-consuming, and the saber is not a drill, and many difficulties were encountered in the process.

For example, because of the blade of a saber, when the tip of the knife goes a little deeper, it starts to stop.

In order to solve this problem, Ye Qing could only drill while hitting the handle with a stone, chiseling a little and then continuing to drill.

He also wants to use the saber as a chisel directly, but the question is whether the saber can withstand such force or two. The most important thing is that the saber is thick on one side and thin on the other, which is easy to cause deviation. Broken wood is a trivial matter. Hurt yourself.

This road doesn't work, you can only drill slowly.

After two hours of hard work, Ye Qing finally drilled a hole of appropriate size in the center of the wood.

Put the stone axe in and an axe is formed.

But the work is not over yet. Although Ye Qing chose wood with better toughness when cutting wood, the stone axe can withstand a lot of force during the use of the stone axe, and the wooden handle is very easy to be unbearable and cracked. The finished stone axe was declared scrap.

In order to avoid this problem, Ye Qing also needs to use a rattan to firmly fix the contact position of the stone axe and the wooden handle, so as to ensure more convenience during use.

This is simple, and Ye Qing will do it soon.

Before it was time for lunch, Ye Qing informed Zhao Ling and went out with the stone axe.

Time is very tight. He plans to finish the two wooden beds today. It is better to make a shelf. Now they have a lot of things, especially food, which is easy to get damp and mold when placed directly on the ground.

Then tomorrow I will go out to find fresh water and explore the surroundings by the way.

As for the spring water last time, not to mention that it is too far away, even if it is close to Ye Qing, it will not go. The ghost knows whether the short-faced bear will still be there, and the combat power of that thing is much higher than its own.

The stone axe is no better than iron, but it is still very easy to use. In only about an hour, Ye Qing has already chopped a lot of wood, all of which are about the same size as the forearm. They are perfect for making wooden beds and shelves. Go The skin can be used.

By noon, Ye Qing had already cut enough wood, and then Ye Qing looked for it nearby, and selected a few special woods. After cutting down, he didn’t even clear Yazhi, so he went back to place the wood. The place.

These trees are not used as lumber, Ye Qing fancy the bark.

He has seen this kind of tree before. Its bark is different from other bark. It is very flexible. After being peeled off, it can be woven into a rope. It is very strong, not much better than that made of plastic.

As for why not rattan is used, Ye Qing has also considered.

Although the rattan is good, it has a fatal weakness, that is, it will dry up and rot, and it will not take long. It may break when used. It is better to say that the fixed shelf can be rebuilt if it is stepped on, but if it is used in On a wooden bed, if the bed collapses when you fall asleep, it will be very embarrassing.

Generally speaking, the correct way to use this kind of bark is to peel it off and dry it first, then soak it in water for a period of time and then dry it in order to maximize its toughness.

But now it's more anxious, Ye Qing skips these steps directly, and it doesn't matter much. If it's a big deal, it will be changed later. Besides, it may not be that time, maybe the search and rescue team will find him.

After peeling the bark, Ye Qing immediately used it.

Because the wood cut is not too thick, even if Zhao Ling does not laugh at one, Ye Qing himself would be embarrassed to bring one back.

Tied the wood into bundles with bark. Poor Xiao Hei was originally a hunting pet, but he was completely used as a cow and horse, and was pulled over by Ye Qing as a coolie.

But this guy seemed quite happy, Pi Dian Pi Dian dragged two bundles of wood and walked back.

Ye Qing didn't just let it do the work on its own. He carried four bundles of wood before going back.

These woods are all raw, and one bundle is about 40-50 jin. If Ye Qing used to resist one bundle, two bundles would be the limit, but now carrying four bundles, he doesn’t feel the pressure at all. This is Benefits after the body is strengthened by the system.

After three consecutive trips with Xiao Hei, he finally brought back all the chopped wood and piled it outside the cave. Not to mention, it looked like that at first glance.

Originally, Zhao Ling thought he was quite capable. In the past few hours, he picked up a lot of dry firewood, and it was almost as high as her when he piled it up in the cave. As a result, when he saw Ye Qing’s successful work in the morning, he immediately I feel ashamed.

Her little achievement is less than one-tenth of Ye Qing's side, and she is picking up ready-made ones, Ye Qing has to cut it now and deal with it before moving back.

The two are not comparable in the first place, and Ye Qing is comforted again, this girl is just smiling, and she is going to cook.

In fact, there is nothing to cook, there are so many meals in the morning, just warm it up.

Because there is no soup container, no matter what the dish is, it can be stewed in a big iron pot. Although it is delicious, it still lacks some feeling.

This makes Ye Qing feel that making pottery must be on the agenda. It seems that if he wants to live a better life, he still has a lot of things to do.

Time suddenly became compact again.
