Crossing to Live in the Wilderness Plains
Chapter 42:
Aze's room had long been overwhelmed by the smell of bacon because a lot of bacon had been piled up for a long time. The new house had been built, and Chen Qi couldn't wait to move out of the room full of bacon.
A Ze first set up the slate bed in Chen Qi's room, and then covered it with two layers of soft animal skins as a mattress, while Chen Qi began to prepare dinner in his new home.
The two went out this time and harvested two large bags of potatoes and sweet potatoes, so they didn't need to eat them sparingly. The first meal in the new house, Chen Qi, cooked a lot. I steamed a few sweet potatoes as the main food, made a plate of potato stew, fried a large bowl of shredded potatoes, and sweet potato syrup. I was afraid that Aze would not be used to the spicy taste, so I cut a bell pepper carefully. Remove the seeds inside, add a little **** and green onion and fry a large plate of pork kidneys. Not to mention, this meal made Chen Qi feel that it was the most decent meal he had ever cooked.
It is a pity that there is no table, and a few dishes on the ground always feel a little less homely. Chen Qi thought a little regretfully.
After dinner, Chen Qi began to prepare for entering the Luoya Forest tomorrow. Although it was not a big danger with Azer following him, Chen Qi's cautious personality made him always think about the worst outcome first.
Chen Qi hopes that even if he can't help Aze when he is in danger, at least he can't become a burden to the opponent. The only tool he can defend himself is the sword-horn knife. Although the sword-horn knife is sharp, its attack range is too short. He has zero experience in melee combat with beasts, and he doesn't think that he can protect himself with such a knife. He needs a weapon that can attack from a distance. At least if he doesn't let beasts get close, he will have a higher chance of escaping. . As for long-range weapons, which can be made by himself and can be used quickly, the first thing Chen Qi thought of was the bow.
Chen Qi's impression of the bow, which is a weapon, has only been seen in TV movies. He only knows its approximate style, but he has no idea how it was made. However, this did not dissuade Chen Qi from wanting to make one. Positivity of the bow.
Chen Qi found a wooden stick that was more than one meter long and as wide as an arm. The reason why Chen Qi chose it was that the material was hard enough, and he was not afraid that it would break. He asked Azer to help break the stick into two halves, chose the thicker half, and used charcoal to draw the approximate shape of the bow on it, and then he directed Azer to cut the bow according to the drawn shape. prototype.
The bowstring Chen used is the root wire, which is a little elastic and hard enough. Chen Qi knitted a slightly thicker rope and tied it to both sides of the bow, and carved a few shallow scratches with a knife on both sides. Secure the rope. Then I found a long wooden stick, pulled the bow into a certain arc, and then stuck the long wooden stick in the middle to fix the shape.
After completing the prototype of the wooden bow, Aze went to feed the little wolf cub who had just woken up. The little wolf cub didn't know if it was too small, so he slept when he was full, and hummed to eat when he woke up. of.
Chen Qi was cutting arrows, there was no metal here, and one night was not enough to polish stones or animal bones to make arrows. It was made of bird feathers that had been hunted before. The feathers were glued to the tail of the nock with melted pectin. I was afraid that the stick would not be strong, so I tied it again with a root wire. Chen Qi made two kinds of arrow feathers, two feathers and three feathers. Two feathers are fast, but the target head is unstable. The speed of the three feathers will be relatively slow, but the target head is more stable, which is also conducive to hitting the target.
"Aze, we won't be here tomorrow, what should I do with this little wolf cub? Let it be at home alone?" Chen Qi asked, putting the arrow with the arrow feathers glued to the side.
Aze washed the small wooden dish where the little wolf cub had eaten the milk fruit with water, "Take it to the tribe tomorrow and let Carlo take care of it. It's too small to keep at home."
Chen Qi found that Aze's facial expression was very gentle when facing the little wolf cub, and his movements were much more meticulous than usual. The little wolf cub just hummed twice and immediately took out the milk fruit and fed it, "It seems that you like this little boy very much. cub."
Azer paused when he held the little wolf cub and put it back into the animal hide nest.
The next morning, Chen Qixian went to check the bending of the wooden bow, but it was only one night's work, and the effect was not very satisfactory. Chen Qi found a piece of animal skin that was no longer in use and hung it on the fig tree outside the house, tied the bowstring, took out a three-feather arrow and tried it. The first arrow missed the target.
Chen Qi coughed slightly embarrassedly, and peeked at the expression of A Ze next to him, and found that the other party had not changed from just now, and still focused on watching him bend bows and arrows.
The orcs who have never seen bows and arrows naturally do not understand the embarrassment of being full of confidence but the arrows miss the target. Chen Qi retracted his mind, pulled out the second arrow, and the arrow flew past, this time firmly on the edge of the animal skin. Unexpectedly, Chen Qi, who was hit by the second arrow, happily handed the wooden bow to A Ze, "A Ze, come and try it too."
After seeing it twice, Aze has roughly understood the use of the wooden bow, "Are you going to hit that hide?"
Chen Qi nodded, "It's better to hit the center of the hide."
Aze didn't understand the difference between two arrows and three arrows, so he casually picked up the two arrows closest to him, bent the bow and mounted the arrow, the arrow flew out, and plunged into the animal skin firmly. In the middle of the hide. Chen Qi looked at the arrow whose tail was still shaking in surprise, walked over to check it, and found that the arrow broke through the bark and plunged into the wood.
"Perhaps you are more suitable for this bow than me." Chen Qi said in a complicated mood. If there is time in the future, I may be able to make a good wooden bow. If I can hunt with a bow, it can greatly reduce the burden of Azer.
After the two had breakfast, they sent the wolf cub to Carlo's house and set off for the forest. The Luoya Forest is not far from the Yanshan tribe. It only takes half a day to arrive at the speed of the female and son. Aze does not plan to spend the night outside. After picking up the two's animal skin backpacks, they will go home. As long as Chen Qi After bringing himself to know the plants that need to be picked, he can often enter the forest to look for them in the future.
The plants in the Loya Forest are very different from those on the Dora Plain. Most of the plants on the Dora Plain have withered away early, but the forest is still green, and some trees with yellow leaves are covered with Chen Qi was surprised to see the fruit.
A Ze checked the surrounding situation before putting Chen Qi down. The trees here are not as tall as those on the plain, but more like the groves in the park next to Chen Qi's former community, but the plant species are somewhat different from what he knew. Chen Qi looked at the tall tree with bunches of grape-like fruits on it, very similar to what Ake picked up before.
Chen Qi didn't bother about whether the grapes were vines or not. After confirming with Aze that the fruit was indeed a grape, he picked off all the fruits on the entire vine, filling half of his backpack instantly. Chen Qi took one off, wiped it with his sleeve and stuffed it into Aze's mouth. He also ate one. It was a little sweet and a little sour. I wonder if it could be used to make fruit wine. Thinking of the fruit wine, Chen Qicai found out that the water lactulose he had made before did not know what to do. He has been so busy lately that he forgot its existence. This time I will go back and have a look.
"We can find some of everything, and we don't have to pick so many at once." A Ze took the backpack that was stuffed with half a bag of grapes and reminded. Grapes can usually be picked in the forest themselves.
Chen Qi stuck out his tongue secretly. He was so excited to see a tree bearing so many fruits for the first time. He almost forgot that the main purpose of entering the forest this time was to pick milk fruits for the little wolf cubs and find other plants that could be used for cooking.
The forest is indeed a treasure. Just a short distance away, Chen Qi found many kinds of wild fruits. He also found a few wild cabbages. The cabbage was very big. Carrying it, he hasn't eaten vegetables for a long time, and the cabbage can be stored for a long time, and the unfinished can be marinated. Chen Qi doesn't want to miss it.
"Chen Qi, do you need this kind of rice berry?" Aze asked, pointing to a fruit tree that looked a bit like a coconut tree, covered with green fruits the size of basketballs.
Chen Qi's ears moved. Most of the names of animals and plants here are similar to the things that existed in Chen Qi's original world. If there is a word for rice in a fruit, even if it has a different shape from rice, it at least shows that It's about the same thing. Chen Qi leaned over, "Aze, pick one and show it to me."
Aze picked one and handed it to Chen Qi. Although the shell of the rice berry looked very hard, it was broken with a single stroke with a sword-horn knife. The white inside was a bit like a rice paste-like colloid. It feels a little sticky, and I tried it in my mouth. It has a little rice fragrance, and the taste is a bit strange.
"This kind of rice berries will taste better when cooked. Orc children will be replaced with this kind of food when they are about a year old." A Ze stopped Chen Qi from trying to taste it again.
Chen Qi's eyes lit up, and he finally found the staple food, "Aze, let's go back with some rice berries."
"Okay." Azeri climbed up the tree and picked a few down. They only brought three animal skin backpacks out. The rice berries were huge, and just a few of them filled a backpack.
"It would be great if the backpack could hold a little more." Chen Qi muttered in disappointment.
"It's still a few days before winter, I'll just pick it up again then." A Ze comforted.
"It can only be the."
While the two were talking, a deafening roar suddenly came from not far away, and then a group of Iguanodon was stunned.
Aze's originally relaxed expression sank, and he put Chen Qihu behind him, his eyes fixed on the direction of the sound.
Chen Qi felt a sense of crisis in his heart. He took the wooden bow behind him and held the arrow firmly in his other hand. He asked worriedly, "What happened?"
