A leisurely life in ancient times

Chapter 144 Soft Wood

"Just now I was worried about how to solve the problem of drinking water on the way. With this thing, we don't have to look for water sources when we are thirsty at night." Jiang Qing explained with a smile, really sleepy and met the pillow.

"Really?" Excitement flashed across Lang Mo's stern face.

Go hunting, often thirsty.Finding water sources is very troublesome. If you can carry water with you, you will save a lot of time when hunting in the future.

Jiang Qing nodded heavily. Originally, bamboo can also be made into a kettle.However, it was already dark!She can't waste time and let people go out to look for it.

This is not the Chasing Wind Tribe. In the tribe, there is a large green bamboo forest in front of the shallow mother-in-law's cave. For this migration, she is thinking about cutting a lot of bamboo to make a water bottle, and it can also be used for emergency rescue on the way.

"Clan Chief Yingjie, tell me first, where did you find this gourd? Do you still have it in your tribe?" Turning around, Jiang Qing stared at Yingjie eagerly.

Yingjie blushed, nodded repeatedly, and said: "This thing grows at the foot of the tribe's mountain, and it can never be eaten. Usually, the tribe's children pick it up for fun. I remember that there is a cave in the tribe, and there is a lot of it."

Hearing this, Jiang Qing was very excited.

"Clan Chief Yingjie, ask someone to move all the gourds down. Is there a river near here? Let's clean the gourds and fill them with water. You don't have to worry about being thirsty when you're on your way!" Jiang Qing said happily.

Although the Flying Eagle Tribe is not far from the Chasing Wind Tribe, but that not far refers to the speed of the man after he turned into a beast.Based on their walking distance, I'm afraid it will take at least four or five hours.

In addition, it was late at night, and Lang Mo said that he would return to the tribe before midnight, which was easy to say.If there is any accident, it may be possible in the early morning of the next day.

Right now, time is running out.

Otherwise, they would not be willing to travel at night, it would be too dangerous!

Even if it is not the dry season, it is always dangerous to walk in the forest at night.

To avoid accidents, Lang Mo asked Lunbi and the others to arrange for someone to greet them after they returned to the tribe.The beast form of the Flying Eagle Tribe has an advantage in the sky, but not on the ground.

Before Lang Mo had time, he brought Jiang Qing alone.

Walking at night, they try to avoid staying as much as possible, but for several hours, even if they don't eat, they can't even drink their saliva!Adults can bear it, but what about children?
"Yingyun, take a few people to take down all the gourds piled up in the tribe. By the way, if it's not easy to pretend, each person will carry a rattan basket back..." Yingjie learned to use it, picked up a rattan basket from the side, Handed it to Ying Yun.

When Jiang Qing was weaving rattan baskets, she was worried that her shoulders would be rubbed, so she deliberately padded the place where her shoulders touched with vine leaves.Although not very strong, it is practical.

Ying Yun nodded, yelled at several clansmen of similar age, and hurried back to Qiying Cliff.Over there, everything was cleaned up very cleanly, and Ying Yun found the small cave where the gourds were piled up without any difficulty.

There are a lot of miscellaneous things stored in it, which are used by tribal children to relieve boredom.Yingyun didn't care about the three sevens and twenty ones, and swept all the things into the rattan basket.

Seeing this, the others followed suit and cleaned up the things in the small cave.Not even a single hair was left, and after putting it on, he wandered around the tribe again, seeing that everything had been moved, he left very quickly.

Seeing Yingyun and the four of them, the rattan baskets were full.

Jiang Qing smiled happily, and now the water problem has been solved all at once!

This gourd is twice the size of the ones she's seen before, and I'm afraid it can hold a lot of water. "Take it to the river to clean it first, and then fill it with water. I'll get some green vines, and everyone will take one on the way."

Jiang Qing picked and picked from the green vines, and found a lot of green vines that were as thick as fingers, wrapped them in the vines and rubbed them back and forth, rubbing off the fine fluff on the surface of the green vines.

To avoid itching and tingling when hanging around his neck later, Lang Mo took the green vine from Jiang Qing's hand without Jiang Qing's opening, and rubbed it quickly, Yingjie was not to be outdone.

Yingyun and the others carried gourds on their backs and went to the river at the foot of Qiyingya Mountain to clean them. At this moment, the green vines that had been cut earlier were all cleaned up. The old man helped to prepare dinner, and a dozen children followed them up and down. Yingyun went to the river.

Jiang Qing told Yingyun and Yingyun about cleaning the gourd in detail, and asked them to clean it and fill it with water.Later she would make a stopper and a rope and send them there so they wouldn't have to go back and forth to avoid spilling the water from the gourd.

"Saizi, what should I do?" Lang Mo asked.

The green vines are used to make the rope, but the water will spill out if the mouth of the gourd is not blocked.

Jiang Qing frowned and said, "Chief Yingjie, is there any soft wood near the Feiying tribe?" Jiang Qing suddenly remembered that most of the wines from the Celestial Dynasty used cork to stop the bottle mouth.

I don't know if the Flying Eagle Tribe has this kind of cork.

The mouth of the gourd is not big, and if a hardwood plug is used, it is not easy to cut it.For a while, she couldn't think of a more convenient way, and if it didn't work, she could only use leaves to block the mouth of the gourd!
"Soft wood?" Yingjie frowned.

At this moment, Dan Li came over, holding a white object in her hand, and said, "Jiang Qing, can you see this object?"

"What is this?" Jiang Qing asked curiously.

His eyes were fixed on the thing in Danli's palm, and he stretched out his hand to pinch it, which was soft and full of Q energy.

"This thing..." Jiang Qing couldn't help sniffing it with the tip of her nose, and a faint milky smell entered her nose.

"It fell from the milk bag of the milk tree. There is little food in the dry season, so this thing is durable. When we are hungry in the dry season, we will take it out to fill our stomachs." Dan Li said.

Upon hearing this, this thing can be eaten.

Jiang Qing hesitated for a moment, people in the Beast God Continent don't allow food to be wasted, isn't it an overkill to use this as a stopper?

"Are there many things?" Jiang Qing hesitated.

Danli nodded and said with a smile: "We call this a pacifier. There are a lot of things. The tribe's children will come to the forest to pick up pacifiers when they have nothing to do. The tribe hoards a lot."

"Will it be too wasteful?" Jiang Qing looked at Lang Mo, not knowing what to do!
Lang Mo rubbed Jiang Qing's head, and said: "Pick out small pieces and use them as gourd stoppers. Hanging the gourd on your body, it won't get dirty, and you can still eat it at that time. It's not a waste of food, let alone this big night It’s hard to find something.”

As soon as Lang Mo said, Ying Jie nodded immediately.

A decision was made, and it was unanimously decided to use a pacifier as a stopper.The pacifier has good elasticity and can be used with a little shaving.Even if you accidentally drop it into the gourd, you don't have to worry about dirtying the water.

Danli searched, and found a decorated pacifier from a tidy rattan basket.Because she didn't know how many gourds there were, Jiang Qing asked Danli to find out all the small pieces of pacifiers and put them together separately.

In case there are fewer, you have to troubleshoot again.

Jiang Qing and Dan Li were picking pacifiers, while Lang Mo and Ying Jie were quickly rubbing the green vines. After everything was done, the weaving of rattan baskets and rattan baskets had entered the final stage.

The barbecue for dinner was almost ready, Jiang Qing called a dozen people and walked towards the river in a mighty manner.As long as the water problem is solved, the food is eaten, and the torches are ready, they can start on the road at any time!
