Crossing to Live in the Wilderness Plains

Chapter 107

A Zhang only arranged for A Le and A Xu to go to the Luoshui tribe to exchange resources with Chen Qi. After all, the Luoshui tribe is too far away from Qi Ze City. If too many people leave the tribe, the tribe's defense and hunting will weaken. .

A few people stayed in the tribe for about five more days, during which time A Xu's wooden bow was ready, A Shu looked very envious, A Zhang also gave him one, but the arrows needed to be made by themselves.

A lot of pottery bowls and cups have also been made, followed by cloth. The cloth woven with roots has strong toughness and is not easy to wear. Now the weather is getting hotter and hotter, putting on clothes made of this kind of cloth is better than wearing a beast. Leather skirts are much cooler.

They didn't bring much paper. The two brothers helped Azhu chop the materials for papermaking for several days, and also helped to pound the pulp for a few days. It wasn't very difficult to make, but Axu quickly got started.

The craft of making a bamboo sieve is not something that can be learned in a few days. A Xu asked the old ladies from Qize City to help make a batch. After returning to the tribe, he plans to bring what they need in exchange for these bamboo sieves. .

The two brothers have been busy almost every day these days, and they can come into contact with new things every day. Asu has a feeling that if he stays in the mayor of Qi Ze, he will definitely be able to see more novel things.

Because it would take about two months to go back this time, Chen Qi brewed a few more jars of wine, and this time Ali came to learn how to brew together.

"The wine brewed this time has used up all the sugar. Ali, please make some sugar when you have free time." Chen Qi said to Ali while sealing the filtered wine in the jar.

Ali nodded, "Tomorrow, A-Zhang doesn't need to hunt, let him go to the forest to pick some water and milk fruit."

This time, the grapes were enough to brew five jars of wine, and Ali also brewed two jars. After sealing the mouth of the jar, Chen Qi still buried them under the fig tree in the yard.

"Are these wines buried until you come back?" Ali asked, seeing that Chen Qi had buried the wine.

Chen Qi wrote today's date on a wooden board, and then inserted it into the place where the wine was buried, "Well, I heard that the longer the wine is fermented, the more fragrant it is. You have never seen wine before, so I'd better wait until I come back to see how well this wine is made. No problem first." After all, Chen Qi is also making wine for the first time, and he can't guarantee that this wine will be made without problems.

The two were talking when they suddenly heard a few knocks on the door. When they turned around, they saw A Zhu standing outside, holding a thick stack of paper in his arms.

"Just come in when you come." Chen Qi put the **** away. Bone-made hoes are actually not very effective for digging the ground. They are not as good as the beastized nails of females. Unfortunately, there are no metal ores on the plains. Otherwise, Chen Qi really wanted to make a few iron tools.

Azhu pushed open the courtyard door with his body sideways, walked to Chen Qi, and handed the paper in his arms to Chen Qi, "I have prepared all the paper you want."

Chen Qi picked up a piece of paper and looked at it. The texture of the paper made this time was a little more delicate than the previous one. He took over all the paper with satisfaction and praised: "Your papermaking skills are getting better and better now. Try making the paper thinner and softer."

Hearing Chen Qi's compliment Azhu was a little shy, he nodded, "I'll study it with grandpa when I go back."

After this period of recuperation, Azhu is no longer as thin and frail as he had been at the beginning. A little flesh has begun to grow on his little face, and his complexion has become quite rosy. When he smiles, two little tiger teeth are looming, which is very cute.

After delivering the things, Azhu planned to leave. Now he and Acheng are almost in charge of the paper for the entire tribe, and they are very busy every day.

"Wait a minute." Chen Qi stopped Azhu who wanted to leave, moved the paper back into the house, and then took out two steaming teacups with Pu leaves tied to the mouths of the cups.

As soon as Azhu saw what was in Chen Qi's hand, he couldn't help swallowing his saliva, his eyes glued to the teacup and couldn't move.

Chen Qi smiled and handed him two teacups, "Aze found a pterosaur egg in the morning, I made some pudding, you can take it back and eat it with Acheng."

Azhu took the two teacups in surprise, "Thank you." Now the hunting team occasionally finds a few eggs. Azhu also got one before, but he also made it according to Chen Qijiao's steps, but the taste of making it It was not as sweet and tender as Chen Qi, so he gave up after only making it once. He didn't expect that he could even eat the pudding made by Chen Qi himself when he came to deliver the paper this time.

After thanking Chen Qi, Azhu couldn't wait to run home with the pudding. He couldn't wait to taste the pudding.

After Azhu left, Chen Qi went back to the house and started sorting out the paper, and when A Li had buried the two jars of wine he had brewed, he just came back after washing his hands and saw Chen Qi stuffed the paper into the animal skin backpack, he couldn't help but be stunned, " Chen Qi, are you taking so much paper to exchange it with the people from the Luoshui tribe?" Even the Asu brothers didn't plan to bring paper, they have already learned the skills of papermaking, so they can just go back to the tribe and make it directly. Now, why go so far with such a big bag of paper on your back?

"No." Chen Qi shook his head, "I plan to use these papers myself."

"use it yourself?"

"Well." Chen Qi tied the pocket of the animal skin backpack, and then raised his head and smiled at Ali, "I plan to draw all the scenery along the way."

The journey from Qize City to Luoshui Tribe is a long way. After Chen Qi came to this world, apart from visiting the Lion and Wolf Tribe once, this trip to Luoshui Tribe was a real trip. He not only wanted to see the unique scenery along the way. After drawing it, he also planned to draw a map from Qize City to Luoshui Tribe.

After almost preparing the things to be exchanged, the group of six planned to set off for the Luoshui tribe. Because A Jing was young, Chen Qi was worried that he lived alone, so he let him take the little wolf cub to live back to Ali's house during this time.

Chen Qi only carried a large backpack of drawing tools, which gave him the illusion of returning to his school days to go out to sketch. Aze carried a large backpack of various cured meats. These are the food of several people on the road, but Chen Qi will let them pick some edible plants along the way, so they are not short of food.

It was the first time for the two of them to go out and they didn't even need to control their food. Although most of the wild vegetables that Chen Qi found were not quite to their taste, at least they wouldn't be hungry after eating them.

A few people rested in an acacia tree at noon. Chen Qi asked A Ze to carry himself to the top of the tree, and then A Ze went to help cook and eat. Chen Qi took out the fruit dye and a quill, and roughly recorded the places he walked. , and then briefly drew the scenery around the acacia tree.

There is no special scenery on the Dora Plain. No matter where you go, you can see the same thing. Except for some disordered weeds and tall grasses, there are the ubiquitous acacia trees. out of the direction they were going.

Seeing that Chen Qi was there to look up for a while, and then start painting again, A Xu was a little curious, and climbed the trunk to Chen Qi's side. Chen Qi, who was immersed in the painting, did not notice anyone around him.

After marking the last tall grass with words, Chen Qi gently dried the fruit dye on the paper, then slowly rolled it up, tied it with a rope and stuffed it back into his backpack.

"What are you painting?" Chen Kai used black fruit dye. The things he painted were not detailed. Most of them were marked with words. Now Axu only knows his own name, and he can't understand other words at all. , could not help but ask a little curiously.

Chen Qi was startled by the voice suddenly appearing around him, and when he turned back, he saw A Xu's big face who wanted to see the painting, "I'm recording the scenery on the road, and I plan to draw a map at that time."

"Map?" What is that?

"Well, as long as there is a map, even people who have never been to the Luoshui tribe can use this map to find the Luoshui tribe." There is no accurate measurement tool here. If Chen Qi wants to draw a map, only Can rely on some scenery along the way to help distinguish.

Ale under the tree heard the words and raised his head, "Is this thing so easy to use? After that, if you have this map, you won't be afraid of getting lost?" Ale grew up in the Yanshan tribe, and the farthest place to go is the lion The wolf tribe, this time they were sent to the Luoshui tribe to exchange supplies, not to mention how happy they were.

Ah Xu tapped his head, "Even if it's easy to use, will you read it?" Now in the tribe, he is the only one who can't write half a word of a thousand-character script by default, and he has to run every time he wants to write a word. I went to the city wall with the thousand-character script and recited it several times, but I still can't write what I can't write. Ah Xu couldn't understand how he did it. Obviously, as a female, his memory is not as good as that of a male.

Ale covered his head and muttered, "Chen Qi will teach you."

Ash rolled his eyes and ignored him.

Aze climbed to the top of the tree and carried Chen Qi down on his back. The few people simply had lunch and continued to set off. There was still a long way to go, and they couldn't waste too much time resting.

For several days in a row, the scenery on the plain that Chen Qi saw was almost the same. If he hadn't kept a good record every time he took a break, I'm afraid that the same scenery for several days in a row would make him lose even the time. Mix it up.

The Dora Plain without animals is very quiet. Except for the wind and the rustling of the females running through the grass, you can hardly hear any other sounds. Now the sun at noon is very venomous. Chen Qi taught them to use the simple palm leaves. I made a few straw hats for shade.

Chen Qi didn't need to walk, he was lying on Aze's back, and when he ran, a cool wind hit him, so comfortable that he felt a little sleepy.

After walking for about a week, Chen Qi finally saw the most spectacular and different scenery on this plain.

One of the largest rivers in the world, the largest river in the plains of Dora, the Dosa with numerous tributaries.
