A surge overnight.

The next morning, Lin Xi woke up from his sleep feeling relaxed and satisfied both physically and mentally.

Maybe sometimes people really need to vent!

Anyway, she was very satisfied with Wu Chen's abilities.

After lying in bed for a while, Lin Xi finally couldn't resist her rumbling stomach anymore, so she slowly got up and put on her fur skirt.

She rubbed her waist and walked out of the cave. It was sunny outside, with clusters of red leaves in the distance, giving a comfortable feeling of the warm autumn sun.

Wu Chen is not at home at the moment.

Lin Xi vaguely remembered that when she was still asleep in the morning, Wu Chen woke her up and said that he was going to see Chief Bai Nu, then he closed the door of the cave and went out.

Lin Xi knew that Wu Chen went to Bai Nu's place because of yesterday's fireplace and the matter of drying the pickled meat.

Because a few days ago, Bai Nu gave an order that all orcs in the tribe must learn how to build a kang.

However, there are still some orcs who did not join in for various reasons.

These various reasons are nothing more than old age and physical weakness, or the orcs themselves are thin and small, and do not have enough strength to get so many stones.

Then there's pure laziness.

And yesterday, after Bai Nu and Wu Chen personally participated in the process of making the fireplace, they felt that making a fireplace was much simpler and less troublesome than making a kang.

If it's about digging out a fireplace, even an old orc in poor health should be able to dig it out bit by bit by himself.

So he planned to teach the orcs in the tribe how to build a fireplace.

If after this, there are still orcs unwilling to rebuild their homes, they will have to endure the cold winter as before.

Bai Nu finally came up with a solution to the heating problem of the orcs living in the huts.

He planned to do an experiment in his own shed first.

First, dig a shallow pit on the ground inside the shed, lay stone slabs in the pit, and make the upper and lower structures.

The fire hole was then placed outside the shed, and the flue was dug directly out from the back side of the shed.

In this way, it is equivalent to making a kang buried underground.

This way you can keep warm without having to worry about the shed catching fire.

When he was at Lin Xi's place last night, Bai Nu had specifically asked Lin Xi for his opinion on this method. But he didn't expect that Lin Xi would look shocked as soon as he finished speaking!

When Wu Chen first said this, Lin Xi didn't feel anything.

But the more he spoke, the more Lin Xi felt that the method he described had an inexplicable sense of familiarity!

Why does this underground heated kang look so much like the 'kang' used by ethnic minorities living in the countryside on the northeastern border of China?

Although it is different from the kang that Linxi is building now, the principle is similar!

Lin Xi still remembers that when he traveled there before, the tour guide once introduced that the kang there was called "wentu".

Thinking of this, Lin Xi couldn't help but be a little surprised!

After all, this was a method that Bai Nu came up with on her own based on her kang.

This at least shows that the orcs' IQ may not be lower than hers!

They just lack one thing, the first time to create something from nothing!

They just lack an enlightener!

After realizing this, Lin Xi suddenly felt a surge of emotion!

Maybe, she can witness the evolution of civilization in this tribe!

Lin Xi looked at the sun in the sky and stretched lazily.

Her mind was still thinking about yesterday's events, and although those thoughts seemed great when she thought about them, the things she had to do right now were more trivial.

After Lin Xi washed up, he simply ate some barbecue that Wu Chen had left in the morning, and then got busy again.

She hasn't made her self-defense bow and arrow yet.

She found the trunks of the bitterwood tree that she had brought back from the forest the day before. There were two trunks in total, both nearly two meters long and as thick as a wrist.

Lin Xi first found a bone knife, cut the bark on the trunk along a line, and then carefully tore the bark off the trunk bit by bit.

Lin Xi tore off the bark, separated the inner bark from the outer bark, tore them into small strips one finger wide, and then put them aside to dry.

She used to like watching some wilderness survival programs. One of the videos talked about making primitive bows and arrows. The process was not complicated and Lin Xi remembered it very clearly.

But remembering it clearly does not mean it is easy to do.

It was the first time for her to do such delicate handicraft. Due to her caution and lack of experience, it took her a lot of time just to tear off the bark and separate the tendons and skin.

Then use a bone knife to cut the tree trunk into the shape of a bow bit by bit.

This is more laborious.

Lin Xi worked from noon to sunset before he finally completed a very rough wooden bow.

She spent nearly an hour to make the surface of the bow smooth.

Then she lit a fire, stuck branches on both sides of the fire, and placed the wooden bow above the fire for smoking.

The smoked wood will be harder and less likely to break.

After finishing the first bow, Lin Xi sat back and started to deal with the second one.

The blade of the bone knife was no longer sharp at this time, so Lin Xi put it on a stone to sharpen it, but the effect was not very good.

Soon, her palms turned red from the prolonged pounding, and her base of the palms became numb from the constant movement.

Just at this moment, Wu Chen came back with a hide bag full of prey.

He brought back nine gray chickens and six eggs.

Seeing those gray chickens, Lin Xi's eyes immediately lit up! She needed bird feathers to make arrow tails!

"Wu Chen, don't throw away the tails and wing feathers of these gray chickens. I can use them."

Lin Xi pointed at a few chickens on the ground and said to Wu Chen.

Although Wu Chen was puzzled, he nodded and agreed, "Okay!"

After saying that, he picked up four gray chickens from the ground and went to the river to deal with them.

The remaining five will be saved for tomorrow morning.

While Wu Chen was dealing with the gray chicken, Lin Xi took the six eggs into the cave.

The shell of this gray egg was also gray, and it looked much larger than an ordinary egg. Lin Xi compared her fist with the egg and found that the egg was even larger than her fist.

There are six eggs. Lin Xi plans to use four to make omelets tonight, and keep two to make egg cakes tomorrow morning.

She put the two eggs she was going to save together with the five chickens to be eaten the next morning. She cracked the remaining four eggs into a small fruit shell bowl, stirred them with chopsticks, and set them aside.

Wu Chen quickly finished dealing with the four gray chickens and returned from the river.

When he came back, Lin Xi had already lit a fire for cooking.

Tonight's four gray chickens are still roasted.

Lin Xi mixed the washed salty stones, small sweet fruits, and sour fruits together.

Then he stuffed it into the stomach of a clean gray chicken, and tied the chicken's stomach tightly with a hide rope. Then Wu Chen used branches to pierce four chickens separately, poked them above the fire, and roasted them slowly.
