Chapter 270 The first red pine
Hearing Zhao Xinqing's words, Su Bai nodded seriously:
"When the cold wave is over, we will build the house initially and go out to find salt immediately."
"In the past few days, see if there is any chance to observe the terrain from a high place."
Over time, the importance of salt will only increase.
On the one hand, it is hyponatremia. Su Bai has become increasingly evident that the lack of sodium ions affects his physical condition.
I already felt a slight dizziness and weakness, and occasionally I would suddenly invade him while he was doing a lot of physical labor.
As Zhao Xinqing said, if you cannot get salt supplements, this symptoms will become more and more obvious.
On the other hand, meat storage.
Don’t look at the cold wave now, the temperature is very low.
But summer is coming soon.
Once the temperature rises and there is no salt-cured meat, it will probably rot to the point where it cannot be eaten in one day.
Therefore, it is urgent to set out to find salt and must be considered.
However, this matter is definitely not something that can be done by touching the mouth.
The only source of salt that the two of them can think of now is the seaside.
You can't return to your birthplace as the same way.
Because the two were born in the beach, but on the coastal mountains, it was very difficult to get water.
In this way, if the two of them want to get salt, they have to enter the unknown wilderness field, walk all the way to the beach.
Long-distance travel in the wilderness can be very dangerous. Maybe you will die on the road and never have the chance to come back to the camp.
Su Bai must be treated with caution.
After lunch, the sky was still good and the clouds were not thick.
Su Bai and Zhao Xinqing set out to go to the Red Pine Forest again.
Snow Leopard was not in a hurry to leave the camp today. Seeing the two of them going up the mountain, they followed behind.
But her pair of green leopard eyes are attracted by the cow buttocks of the foodie walking in front of her from time to time.
The foodie felt the crisis and turned around frequently. The eyes of the cow staring at the snow leopard behind him were full of fear, and the "Wuwuwuwuwuwuwuwuwuwuwuwuwuwuwuwuwuwuwuwuwuwuwuwuwuwuwuwuwuwuwuwuwuwuwuwuwuwuwuwuwuwuwuwuwuwuwuwuwuwuwuwuwuwuwuwuwuwuwuwuwuwuwuwuwuwuwuwuwuwuwuwuwuwuwuwuwuwuwuwuwuwuwuwuwuwuwuwuwuwuwuwuwuwuwuwuwuwuwuwuwuwuwuwuwuwuwuwuwuwuwuwuwuwuwuwuwuwuwuwuwuwuwuwuwuwuwuwuwuwuwuwuwuwuwuwuwuwuwuwuwuwuwuwuwuwuwuwuwuwuwuwuwuwuwuwuwuwuwuwuwuwuwuwuwuwuwuwuwuwuwuwuwuwuwuwuwuwuwuwuwuwuwuwuwuwuwuwuwuwuwuwuwuwuwuwuwuwuwuwuwuwuwuwuwuwuwuwuwuwuwuwuwuwuwuwuwuwu
Zhao Xinqing obviously realized that the hunting gene of the snow leopard was hooked by the foodie's back.
She walked directly to the snow leopard, blocking the snow leopard's vision from time to time, diverting the snow leopard's attention.
Large predators like snow leopards, sometimes attacking, are instinctive behaviors.
Even if Zhao Xinqing is already very familiar with Snow Leopard, she will basically not reveal her back in front of Snow Leopard.
For cats, they have to pounce on them and chew on them when they see their backs, which is almost a hunting procedure written into their bone marrow.
It is already very rare for the snow leopard to be so restrained.
With Zhao Xinqing's interference, Xue Leopard's attention finally turned away from the slightly plump buttocks of the young foodie.
Soon, two people arrived at the Red Pine Forest, one bird, one cow and one leopard.
Zhao Xinqing settled the snacker and let her face the snow leopard.
Sure enough, when the snow leopard saw the little foodie's head and eyes gaze, she became much more at peace. She squatted not far away, and her attention did not lock on the little foodie.
In the final analysis, after so many days of getting along, Snow Leopard and the foodie are familiar with each other, and the possibility of attacking each other is actually very small.
Especially when the snow leopard is now full.
After observing for a while, Zhao Xinqing found that there was no problem, so she and Su Bai were involved in the intense logging work.
After the busy schedule between the two yesterday and this morning, the gentle slope has been laid out.
Next, the two of them only needed to cut down four red pine trees and four wooden beams of the stone house were there!
You can also use branches, treetops and other parts on the red pine to replenish some fuel.
Su Bai had already selected four trees to be cut from the large red pine forest, all of which were thirteen to fourteen meters in height.
After pinching the head and tail, the part that is left as a wooden beam should be similar in size and will lay a solid foundation for the subsequent wall building work.
The logging process is still the same.
The two first peeled part of the skin of the red pine, then waved the durable stone axe one after another to create a gap on one side.
Then cut down one-third of the other side, making Hongsong unable to bear his weight and fell down the gap.
Compared to green hill trees, cutting down red pine is much easier.
In less than an hour, the first red pine fell down.
The two cut off all the branches on it, and waved the stone axe again to chop it one-third downwards the top of the main trunk.
Create a gap, bring the stone as a fulcrum, squeeze both ends of the gap, and make it break.
In this way, only the lower half of the thick red pine leaves were left, about six meters long. After transporting it back to the camp, it was then tidied up and buried in the pit reserved by the wooden beam!
The two assisted the foodie and dragged the six-meter red pine trunk out of the red pine forest and placed it on the gentle slope.
Before letting the red pine start to roll down, Su Bai and Zhao Xinqing tied the red pine with the thick straw rope that they had woven before, so that the surface was completely covered with the straw rope.
In this way, the buffering ability of the red pine will be greatly enhanced during the rolling and falling process.
After making all the preparations, Zhao Xinqing checked the locations of the snow leopards and the snacks to ensure that they were not injured by the rolling wood. Then she worked together to push the red pine down the gentle slope.
The red pine rolled down five meters and hit the two stones wrapped in straw ropes. It made a dull "bang" sound and stopped.
The two rolled the stone, moved out of position, and then rolled the red pine again.
It was five meters again, and the red pine stopped again, and the two rolled the stone again and continued to roll the red pine.
After repeating this, the red pine quickly rolled to the gentle slope section.
The stones under the section had long been moved aside by Su Bai, leaving only a thick haystack, which was inclined downward overall.
"Success or failure is here." Su Bai whispered.
The previous rolling down, the red pine was completely unharmed.
The subsequent slope should not be difficult.
The only uncertainty is only on this five-meter section.
If the red pine falls from here and passes through the haystack and still breaks out, then this gentle slope can only be used to transport fuel in the future, and cannot transport building materials.
Zhao Xinqing stood above the section, looked down at the thick haystacks spreading below, and pondered:
"should……"
"No problem..."
Barrage:
【I think it's OK too!】
[The gap between such a thick haystack is only five meters, and even if people jump down, they will probably not be injured.]
【Although the red pine is not as strong as the green oka wood, it is also a very good wood, and it won’t break so easily, right?】
[I hope God blesses you so that the red pine will not break...]
[With this gentle slope, Su Bai and Zhao Xinqing are simply too labor-saving. If they can't be used, it will really hurt morale!]
Su Bai and Zhao Xinqing took a deep breath and pushed the red pine side respectively.
The red pine fell down the section directly!
Bang!
With a muffled sound, the red pine fell on the haystack, bounced twice, continued to roll down along the slope of the haystack, and was soon blocked by two stones and stopped in place.
Barrage:
【Go down and take a look!】
【I think it's okay after hearing this sound!】
Chapter completed!
