Farming in the Beast World: I Lead the Orphan Beast Husband to Become Rich

Fresh corpses of lone beasts were hung on several guard towers outside the tribe.

The corpse was still dripping with blood, swaying in the early winter wind, looking particularly desolate and cold.

Lin Xi looked at the corpses dangling from the two guard towers by the Mogan River. After a while, he spat out the mouthwash and chewed bitter orange branches in his mouth, then turned around and went back into the cave.

There is nothing to be sorry about the fate of the invaders!

She put the small fruit shell she used to rinse her mouth back into the cabinet in the living room. The first layer of the cabinet was filled with Lin Xi and Wu Chen's toiletries.

These included the soft fruit shells for gargling, the wooden comb for combing hair, the box of eyebrow trimming blades that Lin Xi brought from the modern era, and the wooden hairpin that she sharpened herself and used to tie her hair.

In addition, there is a small basket woven with bitter orange tree branches, which is filled with bitter orange tree branches folded into finger-length lengths. This is the toothbrush that Lin Xi is temporarily using to brush his teeth!

There was no other way. The fur of the prey she knew was either very soft or had a strong smell. Even after processing, it was really impossible to eat it. She could only use branches instead.

As for the hairpin, it was because the leather rope that Lin Xi brought from modern times was a low-quality product that cost two dollars a bundle.

It was broken one morning some time ago. Fortunately, she learned how to use a hairpin on the Internet on a whim, otherwise she might have to use an eyebrow trimmer to trim her hair!

After brushing his teeth, Lin Xi walked to the dining table and took the fish skin off the two wooden boards on the table one by one.

She touched it and found that the fish skin was dry and she could start the next step.

Lin Xi took a large, soft fruit shell, filled it with some clean wood ash, and added some very fine soil without any impurities, and mixed it with the wood ash.

Then put the dried fish skin in, and start to twist and rub the fish skin repeatedly with the wood ash and fine soil. After rubbing for a long time, use thinner yellow pig skin to roll up and tie the fish skin, and then put it under the foot of the table and roll it repeatedly.

Finally, when Lin Xi was busy sweating, her nine pieces of fish skin paper were completed!

The fish skin paper is very dry and tough and can be easily torn apart. Lin Xi is very satisfied!

Now that you have paper, you can make a lamp!

But Lin Xi suddenly remembered that she didn't have glue. She knew that animal tendons and bones could also be used to make glue, but boiling them was too troublesome. After thinking about it, she suddenly remembered the peaches she had picked before!

There should be peach gum on the peach tree!

Thinking of this, Lin Xi couldn't wait to change his clothes, put on his bag, and go find Wu Chen, asking him to take him to the woods.

Wu Chen also happened to be going to look for wood because Lin Xi wanted to build two open cabinets and low tables in the bedroom and living room to store things.

I don't have to go out hunting today, so I have plenty of time.

After the collective gathering ended, Lin Xi hadn't been to the forest for several days.

Although it has only been a few days, the forest has become visibly desolate!

The fallen leaves under my feet were thicker, and I could hardly see the vegetation underneath. The light above my head was particularly bright. In the forest that was previously full of shadows, the leaves had fallen, and it was rare for the sun to shine in.

Wu Chen took Lin Xi directly to a place where there were many peach trees. Lin Xi slid off his back and walked to the peach trees to observe.

These peach trees are probably not very old and have not grown very tall, so Lin Xi can reach the branches. But if they grow another two years, she probably won’t be able to reach them!

An amber crystal ball appeared in his eyes, and Lin Xi's eyes lit up. He quickly took out the small bone knife he brought with him, shoveled the thing off the tree trunk, and placed it in the palm of his hand.

Then she turned around and handed it to Wu Chen to see: "Wu Chen, this is what it is, it's called peach gum, go to the tree and see if there is any, we can find some more and take them back!"

Wu Chen looked at what was in Lin Xi's hand and nodded. He quickly jumped onto the peach tree and started searching on the trunk.

There are eight or nine peach trees here. If you find all of them, you will find a handful of peach gum. Lin Xi estimated that it should be enough to make one lantern, but if you want to make more, it is not certain!

So she and Wu Chen went to another place.

Coincidentally, as soon as the two arrived, they encountered a giant pig beast digging something under a peach tree. Wu Chen pounced on it and gave it a big fight, knocking it unconscious!

Wu Chen dragged the giant pig beast to the side to drain its blood, while Lin Xi walked to where the giant pig beast was scratching and pulled aside the grass leaves to see what it was looking for!

Finally found out it was a piece of purple fruit!

Lin Xi dug out all the purple-skinned fruits, and there was actually a volume that filled half of an animal hide bag. She shook her head with satisfaction, she didn't expect that she would get an unexpected reward when she went out to look for peach gum!

After picking peach gum from several peach trees nearby, Lin Xi and Wu Chen started to return to the tribe.

When he reached the border of the forest, Wu Chen picked up a few trees, broke them, tied them to his body, and dragged them all the way back to the cave.

After arriving home, Lin Xi began to try to make lampshades.

The frame of the lampshade is still made of bitter orange tree branches. Lin Xi first made a rectangular frame, then dipped it in peach gum and pasted the cut fish skin on it little by little!

The fish that Lin Xi chose to make fish skin paper has a large white belly and only a black stripe on its back. This fish has no name, so Lin Xi named it whitefish.

The finished fish skin actually has a somewhat transparent texture. In order to make the lampshade more light-transmissive, Lin Xi also cut off the black part of the fish skin.

In this way, the entire lampshade will be slightly white and transparent, and the brightness will be better!

A lampshade was quickly pasted, and Lin Xi held it in his hands to admire it.

A bit ugly, but it works!

Wu Chen had already brought back a large basin of black oily water from the cave where the black oily water was produced.

Lin Xi asked him to use a stone to dig out an oil cup to hold oil, and then dig a groove on the edge of the oil cup to hold the lampshade.

Lin Xi used hemp rope to make the wick.

In fact, the best materials for making wicks are cotton thread and asbestos thread, but Lin Xi had not found cotton yet, so he could only use hemp rope.

She also asked Wu Chen to leave a thin, nail-sized column in the middle of the oil lamp with a small hole at the top.

The hemp rope can be passed through this small hole and secured in place to prevent it from falling over the edge of the oil lamp and burning it.

Finally, Lin Xi poured black oil water into the oil lamp and then lit it.

The flame slowly burned, illuminating the dim corner bit by bit, and Lin Xi immediately put on the lampshade.

In an instant, the scattered lights were gathered together and sprinkled again in the corner in front of Lin Xi, but they were twice as bright!

"Xixi, this lamp is brighter than the fireplace!"

Wu Chen sat on a chair beside the forest stream, looking curiously at the fish skin lamp in front of him. He paused and said, "It twinkles like stars, very beautiful."

Lin Xi followed his gaze and couldn't help but smile.

The light from the fish skin lamp is indeed brighter than the dim reddish light from the fireplace, but it also has disadvantages.

Just like Wu Chen said, because of the presence of fish scales, the light is refracted in many places, always casting fine shadows of fish scales on objects.

It does look nice, but it’s actually a bit uncomfortable to look at.

She thought that it would be great if she had time to make a fish skin lamp with the scales scraped off!
