survival in the wilderness

Chapter 9 Introduction to Mental Power

I saw that the shoes made by Yeya and Mushi were all the same size as hers. Although they looked crooked, only she could wear this size.

Lin Yan supported his forehead and sighed, "The straw sandals can be made bigger or smaller. You can adjust them according to the size of your feet."

Ye Ya immediately asked, "How to adjust?" He followed Lin Yan's instruction completely, and made it exactly the same.

Lin Yan thought for a while, then started again, teaching them hand in hand.

You can use more cattail grass for the sole of the shoe, and make it bigger.

After this teaching, the wood and stone seemed to suddenly open up, and immediately said: "If there are enough cattail grass, can we make a big one?"

He stretched out his hands to compare, with an excited expression on his face.

Lin Yan nodded, "Yes, we can make it bigger, instead of making shoe uppers, make it into a large piece, um, that thing should be called a mat."

"What is a mat?" Ye Ya asked curiously, her hands kept moving.

Lin Yan walked around and made some gestures, "weave such a big mat out of cattail grass and spread it on the ground, you can lie down or sit on it, and you don't need to touch the soil when you put it in the cave. You can also use the cave wall The mats are pasted up..."

The more she talked, the more excited she became. Why didn't she expect that there are still many uses for mats.

Following Lin Yan's imagination, Mu Shi and Ye Ya were stunned, never expecting that she could think of so many things.

She's right, though, that mats do have a lot of uses.

The three of them thought about it for a while, full of energy.

I didn't feel hungry, and I kept working until the sun was setting, and it was about to set, and I didn't stop.

When Huahong and Yezi came back and saw them working intently, they were so curious that they didn't understand after watching for a long time.

When they saw the results of Lin Yan and the three of them in the afternoon, several pairs of crooked straw sandals of different sizes, and after the explanation by the three of them, they were also excited.

Papyrus grass is everywhere, and it is not difficult to find it.

There are two more people in the straw sandal weaving team.

With the flames on, the five of them worked for a while, worried that it would be too late and the flames would attract beasts, so they had to stop.

Before going to bed, everyone is thinking that tomorrow they must get up early to weave straw mats.

Although stone slabs are easy to use, they are inconvenient to move and heavy. Straw mats are different. They can be large or small, and can be carried around with you.

Especially the magical function of straw sandals can protect feet.

With excitement, fell into a deep sleep.

When Lin Yan opened his eyes the next day, it was already dawn and the sun was already high.

Maybe it was because I was tired yesterday and slept too deeply.

When she got up and went out of the cave, she saw many people gathered in front of her house.

Lin Yan looked quietly, everyone was busy competing with the rushes in their hands, and there were twelve people, eight of whom she had never seen before.

Walking to Huahong, Lin Yan asked childishly, "Mother, who are these people and where did they come from?"

I guess in my heart that it should be the neighbor who lives in this area. These days, her house has been tossing fire and making straw sandals. It is so loud that it is hard not to attract people's attention.

Sure enough, Hua Hong said: "They all live here, not far from our home. This is a blue flower, this is a red flower..."

It's either flowers or grass, they're all women, and they're all younger than Hua Hong.

Everyone smiled at Lin Yan without hesitation, with simple and honest smiles.

Lin Yan was sure, they came from five families and lived less than 20 meters away from her house. They were usually busy leaving early and returning late, and rarely saw each other.

When the fire was lit at night, someone noticed it and observed it for two days before coming to inquire.

Flowers and plants didn't mind at all, and enthusiastically promoted the magical effect of the fire to them, and recommended straw sandals and straw mats.

Ye Zi's family also chimed in on the sidelines.

So, there is the present scene.

They looked at Lin Yan with joy and joy in their eyes.

Such a smart boy is the sun god's favor for the tribe.

Lin Yan smiled sheepishly and let them be busy. They ate a red apple, boiled hot water to drink it, and began to study her straw sandals again.

She wanted to make thick-soled straw sandals, but she was too busy weaving straw mats yesterday.

There are many people, and the news spreads quickly. When Lin Yan finally made a pair of straw sandals with a three-ply bottom, he tried them on and found them to be very comfortable to wear.

By this time, her name had spread throughout the Sun Tribe, and everyone was curious except those who went out to hunt.They all came to Lin Yan's house and rushed out the door.

The house was very lively on this day, with people coming and going.

Lin Yan stopped weaving straw sandals, and sat under the shade of a tree, waiting for people to come to see her and ask various questions.

She smiled, talked to everyone, asked each other's name, and took the trouble.

I finally met other people in the Sun Tribe, and I no longer see regular people every day.

Although everyone looked the same, with dark skin, chapped and rough skin, wrapped in leaves, etc., pure primitive savages, Lin Yan was also very happy.

According to preliminary statistics, there were 320 or four visitors, and all of them were women, with different ages.

Among them, the name repetition rate is extremely high, and there are 25 named Honghua.

They are very simple, very kind, there are no calculations and interests in their eyes, some are sincere and kind.

Lin Yan thought, the savage's life is simple, and he has no other thoughts. He is busy with stuttering every day.They have no other thoughts, just want to live, this is human instinct.

Lin Yan got acquainted with the people of the tribe initially, and was greatly appreciated.

From this day on, more and more people are looking for her.

For any questions that I can't figure out, the first thing I subconsciously think of is to find Lin Yan.

Lin Yanren has short legs and limited freedom, but he is happy to explain people's doubts.

In just ten days, every house in the Sun Tribe lit a fire, and people began to eat cooked food, put on straw sandals, and spread straw mats.

An eight-year-old girl came to Lin Yan with a straw mat she had woven.

Lin Yan was startled when he saw the straw mat in her hand.

This girl came to him a few days ago to solve his doubts, her name is Cao Zhi.

At that time, I felt that the grass branches were very spiritual, so I mentioned by the way that there are many ways to weave cattail grass. In addition to the simple weaving of one horizontal and one vertical, you can also use a few more grasses, or change the steps of weaving horizontally and vertically.

Only a few days later, Cao Zhi understood it thoroughly.

The straw mats she weaves are made of cattail grass into thin ropes, which are thick and thin, and the straw mats are more delicate and compact.

Lin Yan praised: "Cao Zhi, you are so smart, you can think of such a weave. It looks better and works better this way."

Caozhi smiled shyly, "Really?"

"Of course it is true. You did a good job. You can think of other weaving methods in the future, and you can weave more patterns."

Cao Zhi was affirmed and encouraged, and smiled even more happily.

That night, Lin Yan finally remembered to go to the Science and Technology Museum. He was too busy recently, so he didn't bother to come in.

Maybe it's because I got busy, my small body couldn't bear the tiredness, I was always sleepy, and I slept a little too much.

As soon as he came in, he heard Fat Bao's voice.

"Ten days ago, your mental power reached R level."
