Challenge the wilderness to survive
Chapter 79: Ready to Get Honey
Now, he has enough gourd trees to hold honey.
There is also a defensive basket on the head, as long as the body is covered with thick mud, and then run to the bottom of the hive to burn the bees and smoke them away.
Today Xu Yi felt that there was not enough time, so Xu Yi planned to go tomorrow.
He used a stone axe to clean up a relatively empty place in the camp, and then carried a bucket of water for several days, making the soil very wet, and then stepped on him with Su Keke for a while.
The mud used to grind the body is best to use silt, but Xu Yi cannot find silt nearby.
The bottom of this river is full of rocks without silt.
So, I can only make some mud myself.
Fortunately, the soil here is relatively soft. After being soaked in water, two people stepped on it for an hour and it turned into mud.
Xu Yi didn't feel relieved. Several buckets of water were poured into that location to keep the soil relatively high in humidity.
After completing these tasks, Xu Yi began to process the clay.
Xu Yi put a wooden board on the ground, and then beat the clay on it.
Xu Yi added some water from time to time to adjust the hardness of the clay.
When he found it suitable, Xu Yi began to use clay to make pottery.
Xu Yi first made a pottery pot with a diameter of about 20 cm and a height of about 10 cm.
This was considered a big pottery. Xu Yi first made a cube with clay, and then slowly removed the middle part.
Xu Yi made this big pottery for an hour.
Su Keke will handle the supper.
Xu Yi asked her to cook the cassava cut in the morning in a small pot and divide it into several portions.
The water is boiled first, and then the cassava is put down.
This will not cook into a paste, after all, the starch content of cassava is relatively high.
When cooking, Su Keke felt that the pot was too small to cook much.
A full pot is not enough for one person.
"Dad, you can eat first, Coco is not hungry yet."
After cooking a portion, Su Keke brought it to Xu Yi's side.
Xu Yi took a look and found that Su Keke cooked a bit like a soup, a little sticky.
The outside of the cassava grains is wrapped in starch, giving it a translucent feeling.
"It looks good, dad try it."
Xu Yi took a sip, and there were some cassava grains in his mouth.
"Yes, it tastes good, it's salty and suitable, and it's very greasy."
Yesterday's venison, today's leopard meat, Xu Yi felt that a "cassava porridge" was too greasy and delicious.
Xu Yi felt very satisfied with the meal.
After eating, he continued to make ceramic embryos.
Now, what he makes is a clay pot, which can be used to hold water or boil water for cooking rice.
In pottery, this is relatively easy to fire successfully.
In the evening, Xu Yi was making pottery.
By 11 o'clock in the evening, Xu Yi made 10 pottery pots, 6 pottery bowls, 4 pottery cups, two large pots, and a small pot with a diameter of 15 cm.
The soil he brought back from the termite pile was also used up.
These ceramic embryos need to be dried in the shade.
The weather here is relatively hot, and the humidity is not high, so Xu Yi thinks that it may be almost enough to dry it in the shade under the wooden house for three or four days.
However, in order to improve the success rate, Xu Yi planned to wait until seven days before firing the ceramic embryos.
The more thorough the drying, the higher the success rate of firing.
At night, Su Keke still slept on his hammock.
Xu Yi carried the wooden board back to the second floor. He spread the snake skin on the wooden board, which was more comfortable than sleeping on the floor.
Early the next morning, Xu Yi and Su Keke woke up.
Today, Xu Yi is going to drive away those bees and get honey back.
Therefore, Su Keke is still very excited and looking forward to it.
Although they had some mangoes, they hadn't ripened them yet, so they decided to leave them for a week or two before eating them. They would become ripe and the astringency might not be lost.
After getting up, Xu Yi and Su Keke finished washing.
Then, a cassava was dug out from the pit.
This was baked by Xu Yi before going to bed last night.
After all, bonfires cannot be extinguished.
Cooking breakfast is also to maximize the use of the bonfire.
Half a root of cassava per person, and some venison slices, two people eat very full and very nutritious.
After breakfast, Xu Yi took off his clothes and pants, and then stepped on the mud that he made yesterday with Su Keke.
Then, let Su Keke apply it to himself.
After applying a thick layer, Xu Yi took a bucket, tinder, and hood basket.
Su Keke naturally stayed in the camp. After all, Xu Yi didn't know if the bees were very poisonous.
Even if the toxicity is very low, it may cause her allergies to sting Su Ke Ke.
Allergies may cause laryngeal edema, which can block the trachea and die from suffocation.
Therefore, bee stings are not a trivial matter. When you have allergic symptoms, you should seek medical attention as soon as possible, and you should choose the nearest doctor, first using desensitization drugs or injections.
Soon, Xu Yi came to the vicinity of the hive.
His current position is not yet a threat to the swarm, so they did not attack Xu Yi.
Xu Yi found some dead trees and put them in the bucket, and then began to collect hay.
He was going to rush directly to the bottom of the hive for a while, so he needed to make a big torch to smoke away the bees in a while.
After setting the torch to light, Xu Yi put on the basket, turned on the x-ray vision, and rushed toward the hive.
Close to the realm of the bee colony, countless bees rushed out of the hive and pounced on Xu Yi.
The dense swarm of bees makes the audience's scalp numb.
Everyone is worried about Xu Yi.
I thought it was too scary to look at, but there are seven or eight thousand bees, which are all black.
With a torch in one hand and a machete in the other, Xu Yi chopped down a piece of grass on the ground.
Then, put the torch on the ground.
The dead wood in the bucket is placed on top of the torch.
After it burned, Xu Yi put the chopped grass on top of the fire.
In this way, thick smoke can be produced.
On the other hand, there were all'buzzing' sounds, which made people feel creepy.
Xu Yi squatted on the ground, tightening his body.
The basket on the head is undoubtedly the safest defense.
Xu Yi felt that if he sews a piece of clothing with snakeskin, he should not be afraid of these bees.
Although his body was covered with silt, the silt had slipped away in some places, or it had dried up and cracked.
Therefore, he still had a dozen bites on his body.
Fortunately, it didn't hurt, otherwise Xu Yi wouldn't know how to escape.
After the smoke and gas, the bee colony began to appear chaotic.
