Starting Off Survival With A Small Treehouse
Chapter 142 The Art of Painting
After the carving was finished last night, he was exhausted physically and mentally, so he fell asleep directly.
After Coco's small carvings are completed, the decoration degree of the tree house has been raised to 96.4, which is close to reaching the 100 mark.
Although I don't know if a decoration degree of 100 will work, but a decoration degree of 96.4 is really uncomfortable, so let's go back and increase the decoration degree.
Within a few minutes, Xu Xin was back under the tree house.
Under his tree house, there is still a blue-grade fertile soil without any plants, which is the soil where the apple trees were planted before.
The soil had grown a blue-grade poplar tree after the rainy season, and he cut it down in the morning.
Xu Xin tried to plant mahogany seeds in this piece of blue soil, but it didn't work. It seems that if you want to grow mahogany, you should need more special conditions.
They brought this soil to the plantation on the fourth floor of the treehouse. The plantation can only plant relatively low plants, and tall trees still need to be planted under the tree house.
After thinking about it, Xu Xin planted a pine tree seed in this soil.
His kitchen and bathroom utensils need logs to be made. Blue-level logs can upgrade these utensils, which may have unexpected effects.
Although there are no wild animals now, Xu Xin still built a fence around the soil for protection.
Back at the tree house, it was already after noon, Silver King and Mimi were lying lazily in the living room.
"Do you still want to eat?" Xu Xin asked Yin Wang and Mimi. These two guys are probably going to be promoted to the intermediate mutant beast, so eat more.
But the two beasts shook their heads. It seems that the big meal they eat in the morning has temporarily satisfied their needs.
Xu Xin took Ke Ke to the cold storage to get a few pieces of mutated animal meat, half of which were stir-fried and half of which were roasted.
During the meal, a slight warm current flowed through Xu Xin's body, which made him start to think, how strong is he now? When moving boulders in the morning, he easily lifted a rock that was about the same size as him.
Of course, it is naturally due to the scale armor on his body and the human statue in the tree house.
He felt that even if he didn't hold a weapon, it shouldn't be a big problem to confront a black bear with bare hands.
After dinner, Ke Ke nestled on the sofa for an afternoon nap, and Xu Xin sat on the sofa to rest, thinking about things to do in the afternoon.
This time, instead of sculpting, he plans to paint.
His [artist] contract not only endowed him with engraving skills, but also endowed him with superb painting skills.
But before that, he needs to make the painting tools.
[Painting brush (green): Dip in water to draw the ink painting you want, and you can draw green-level paintings. Requires wood (green)*1, a strand of animal hair (green)]
What the paintbrush needs is wood and animal hair. He has plenty of blue-level wood, but Xu Xin has never obtained this animal hair.
Could it be that this kind of resource cannot be decomposed with a boning knife?
Xu Xin looked at Yin Wang who was dozing off in the corner.
Isn't it just ready-made wolf hair? It's still the wolf hair of the mutant wolf king!
With a smile on his face, Xu Xin walked up to the Silver King, staring at its silver and red tail.
The wolf hair is actually not the tail hair of the wolf, but the hair on the tail of the weasel. However, it should not be a big problem to use the tail hair of the Silver King.
The Silver King had already opened his eyes when Xu Xin walked over, seeing his smiling face, it always felt that something bad was going to happen.
"Aww—"
The bat hanging upside down under the tree house was startled by Silver King's howl and fell down. It flapped its wings a few times and flew to the window to look into the house.
I saw Xu Xin holding a bunch of silver and red hair in his hand, while the Silver King looked at Xu Xin resentfully with his tail between his legs. If you look closely, there is a small piece of baldness on its tail.
[Mutated wolf king's tail hair (blue): The hair on the tip of the mutant wolf king's tail can be used to make paintbrushes. 】
Good guy, it's still a blue-level resource!
Xu Xin looked directly at Yin Wang's fur with bright eyes, and Yin Wang ran to Mimi's side in two steps in fright.
In the end, Xu Xin plucked a few more hairs on its body. After all, this guy shed a lot of hair, so it was easy to pluck hair from his body, and nothing could be seen.
But to Xu Xin's disappointment, only the hair on the tip of the tail was blue-level hair, and the few tufts of hair plucked from the body were not even counted as resources, not even white-level.
Well, maybe only the hair on the tip of the tail can be used to make a paintbrush.
If you still want it next time, you can only wait for the hair on the tip of Silver King's tail to grow out.
Xu Xin immediately made a paintbrush out of this pinch of blue-grade beast hair. Because the hair of the Silver King was used, the hair of the paintbrush showed silver and red colors.
[Langhao brush (blue): You can draw the desired ink painting by dipping it in water, and you can draw blue-level paintings. 】
Beautiful, you can directly draw blue-level paintings!
Pen is ready, next is paper.
Xu Xin flipped through the production list and found that there were two kinds of paper.
One is made of reed paper, and the other is made of mahogany paper.
Xu Xin focused on the paper made of mahogany.
[Redwood Paper (Green): Paper made by extracting the essence of mahogany, which can be used as drawing paper, requires mahogany*1]
Paper that can be used as drawing paper.
but……
A piece of paper actually needs a whole piece of mahogany!
Each tree only produces two redwoods, one for each piece of paper, that is to say, one tree can only make two pieces of paper!
This mahogany paper is too precious...
Xu Xin originally thought about whether to consume a piece of blue-grade mahogany to make a stack of blue-grade paper as a backup, but now he looked, where did the stack come from, there was only one piece!
Forget it, let's practice with green paper first.
Xu Xin immediately made a piece of mahogany paper (green).
The paper is huge, only a small circle smaller than the engraving and painting workbench, just enough to be placed on the workbench completely.
The paintbrush only needs to be dipped in water to paint. Xu Xin prepared a small dish of water and picked up the paintbrush.
The moment he picked up the paintbrush, he felt the immersion when he picked up the carving knife before.
Dip tip lightly in water.
The hair on the nib was originally silver and red, but after dipping in water, it turned black, as if dipped in ink.
Xu Xin picked up the pen and pondered, what should I draw...
Well, let's draw a silver king, after all, it also made a lot of sacrifices for Xu Xin's painting career, and the tip of its tail is bald.
Ink painting is not as fine as sculpture, but there is no need for Yin Wang to be a model. Xu Xin waved the brush and began to open and close on the mahogany paper.
The pen dipped in water, in Xu Xin's hand, can draw gray and black in different shades, and draw wild lines on the mahogany paper.
Xu Xin has completely immersed herself in painting.
He didn't know how long it took, but the Silver King on the mahogany paper and the jungle behind it had become more and more complete, almost finished, but his spirit couldn't hold on anymore.
Like a student sleeping in class, his head drooped and almost hit the table.
...The consumption of mental power is too huge, even bigger than carving.
Because she wanted to compare the energy consumption of painting and sculpting, Xu Xin did not eat oranges (blue) that can maintain her spirit before painting. She did not expect that painting would consume so much energy.
Forced to prevent himself from falling asleep on the table, he quickly took out an orange and ate it.
After eating the oranges, Xu Xin's spirit instantly recharged. The difference between the front and the back was like an injection of adrenaline.
really not bad! The combination of artist talent and oranges is perfect!
I glanced at my watch, and it was nearly two hours since I started painting.
Time flies so fast? !
He swung the paintbrush wide open and closed, and felt that he was painting very quickly, but he didn't expect that it would take so long.
Taking advantage of the duration of the effect of oranges, Xu Xin continued to paint.
The painting will soon be over. When the last stroke was over, Xu Xin let out a long sigh of relief.
On the drawing paper, a wolf is running towards him. Although it is an ink painting, it is not too realistic, so I can't really see the appearance of the Silver King, but it is full of tension, as if the wolf is about to jump out of the paper.
The effect did not trigger. Xu Xin thought about it, and made a picture frame out of wood, put this ink and silver king in it, and mounted it on the wall of the bedroom.
[Detected a framed picture of the wolf king's attack (green) in the tree house, tree house decoration degree +10, current tree house decoration degree: 106.4]
This time, a hint to increase the decoration appeared.
This is a green-grade painting with its own name. As for why it is green level instead of blue level, it should be because of the drawing paper, which is green level, so no matter how good the painting is, it can only play the role of green level.
However, even a green-level painting has a ten-point decoration bonus, making the decoration of the tree house break through one hundred.
But it seems that nothing special happened.
Xu Xin checked the contents of the [decoration degree] option again, but nothing changed.
Is the degree of decoration not enough, or is there any effect that needs to be discovered by yourself?
Perhaps it is because the second stage has not started yet, so the decoration degree has no effect yet.
Since there is nothing wrong now, let's continue.
Xu Xin took out a red crystal, which was one of the blue crystals he got from the wooden box in the whirlpool.
He wanted to try to carve blue-grade crystals. After all, his carving knife was blue-grade and could carve blue-grade crystals.
As soon as the crystal was fixed on the table, Xu Xin's tree house watch vibrated.
It was Li Wenxi who called him.
After connecting, he saw Li Wenxi sitting on the back of a bull.
The little beauty is very leisurely at the moment, even learning to herd cowboys in her mouth, holding a piece of dog's tail grass in her mouth.
"This is, you just finished mining?"
"That's right, I'm walking back. Aniu helped me carry a lot of things. This time, I've walked many times before supporting me." Li Wenxi spat out the grass in her mouth, sticking out her tongue, frowning, "This grass is so bitter..."
"Are you bored on the road and came to chat with me?" Xu Xin put down the carving knife and smiled.
"Oh, what's the matter with chatting." Li Wenxi fell on the back of the cow, the camera was facing her face, and her voice became a lot lazier, "It's not just chatting, I'm here in the mine I found something strange."
Strange things in mines?
Xu Xin became interested in an instant.
