"Why do we have to go to the source?" Lu Ke glanced at Xu Yi in confusion.

Xu Yi glanced at the girl and explained: "Generally speaking, there are fewer animals at the source and can be used as our camp. If it is appropriate, we can build our long-term camp today."

"That's great, let's go to the source first." Lu Ke squinted his eyes and looked at Xu Yi in surprise, feeling that he knew a lot of things.

I read a book on survival in the wilderness, but I have nowhere to be able to play.

So, the two of them walked upstream along the creek.

In about twenty minutes, they will reach the source.

The source is a mountain spring, and the water output is quite considerable. It flows out more than one meter on the cliff, forming a small pool underground.

"What a pity, there are no small fish or shrimp in this pool." Lu Ke took a look, and then said with some regret.

"But there are rabbits moving around here." After Xu Yi observed, he found some small footprints, some of which looked like rabbits.

"Ah, really, how do you know?" Lu Ke glanced at Xu Yi in surprise.

"There are some footprints by the water, you can tell if you look carefully." Xu Yi pointed at the footprints and told Lu Ke.

Lu Ke squinted his eyes and glanced at Xu Yi in surprise.

"You observed it so carefully, I didn't see it at first." As he said that, Lu Ke felt a little ashamed.

Xu Yi’s right attitude is, and he also said he wanted to grow up. This is the first lesson he learned, and he must carefully observe every place he came out.

"As long as you are careful, you can do it too. This place is quite ideal. We can build our own camp nearby." Xu Yi said happily, then went around to a place without footprints, picked up a handful of water, and washed his face.

"It's so cool to hold the water, it's worthy of being a spring water. Come and wash your face." Xu Yi sent an invitation.

"Yes." In fact, Lu Ke didn't just want to wash her face, she wanted to take a shower.

"Lu Ke, after a while, you can start weaving a round barrel, which can be weaved on four sticks." Xu Yi and Lu Ke talked about their thoughts.

"What's the purpose?" She was a little puzzled.

"It's used to take a shower, you have to get it in a while. I don't care. Just pause the shooting." Xu Yi grinned. If Lu Ke didn't mind, he would be happy to appreciate it.

"Ah, I understand, Xu Yi, you are too smart. I can use 8 sticks to make them open and close, which is more convenient. Below, you can hang a little a little, save materials, and also facilitate fixing the position." Lu Ke thought Xu Yi's idea was really wonderful. Maybe she could take a shower tonight.

"Well, you are an expert, you will decide." Xu Yi smiled slightly, then left the water surface.

Xu Yi looked at each side on both sides, and then Xu Yi chose the place on the left, seven or eight meters away from the water source.

There are rock walls there, which can save a wall.

Another reason is that it is dry there and is more suitable for setting up camps.

And it is all mud, which is convenient for building campsites.

After choosing the location, Xu Yi will start logging.

First, he cut 8 pieces of two fingers for Lu Ke, and then Xu Yi began to find bowl-shaped mouths to build his own camp.

There are 9 tree trunks as thick as bowls, two of which need 4.5 meters long, and two more that need 4 meters. Then the remaining 5 are 3.5 meters long.

Xu Yi used a belt to make a one-meter ruler, which was more accurate.

There are trees next to the camp where Xu Yi chose, and most of them are the size of a bowl. Xu Yi can just saw it down and then saw the length he wanted as needed according to his needs.

Xu Yi sawed a small groove on the tops of these 9 pillars, so that when the roof is installed, it is easy to fix the beam.

It took Xu Yi more than an hour to saw out nine pillars, and then Xu Yi began to dig a hole in the camp.

The pits Xu Yi dug are all the same deep, about 40 cm deep.

Then, Xu Yi buried two 4.5-meter walls.

Next are two 4 meters, and finally 5 3.5 meters.

After all the 9 pillars were buried, the rough pattern of a wooden house appeared.

The house is four meters wide and 5 meters long. Xu Yi still has a door, one meter wide.

After looking at the time, it was already 16:03.

Lu Ke has already weaved the things for bathing and can make time to help.

You don’t have to worry about the top today, but the three walls must be handled.

Otherwise, it will be no different from sleeping in the woods at night.

The ones that can be used to make walls include stones, thatch, soil, tree trunks, etc.

There are still relatively few stones here, but there is clay, which is where the water source is clay. But it is too busy to carry it because they do not have the corresponding tools.

Finally, Xu Yi chose thatch, which is more common.

In addition, Xu Yi and his team also have a lot of bark, which can be divided into small ones for binding.

The decision was made only, so Xu Yi took the engineer shovel to cut the thatch.

It's dark here around 19:20, which means they still have 3 hours.

After Xu Yi first cut a bundle of thatch, he cut back more than a dozen shrubs that were two fingers thick, and asked Lu Ke to fix the thatch on the shrubs in small bundles and then fix them on the pillars.

Xu Yi was harvesting thatch every minute, and these thatched grasses were more than 50 cm, which was indeed very suitable for use as simple walls.

Lu Ke also knew that time was tight, so she didn't ask for beauty anymore.

Just be solid and close.

The two of them didn't stop for a moment. After two hours of busyness, they had 18 pieces of thatched grass.

"Xu Yi, it should be enough, right?" Lu Ke hid his hand cut by the thatch behind him.

"That's it, it's almost dark. After we have fixed it, we will make a fire and pick up some firewood and come back.

As for supper, Xu Yi didn't think about it anymore.

"Okay, let's tie them up and there will be a windproof wall." Lu Ke nodded. It was still quite cold here at night.

So the two became busy again.

There are 6 pieces fixed on both sides of the left and right sides, so the height of the wall is more than two meters. With this height, it is enough.

There is only 3 pieces of thatch in front, and 3 pieces are left. Tomorrow, after Xu Yi makes a simple herringbone ladder, he can lay the roof.

Now, I can only pray that it will not rain tonight.

"It's dark, let's hurry up and pick up some firewood and come back." Xu Yi took a look at the time. It was already 18:54, and the sky was darker. If it's a little darker, there's no way to get into the forest.

So the two of them put their backpacks into the unfinished wooden house, and then went out to pick up firewood.
Chapter completed!
