From a Slave to a Overlord, My Experience with the Beast World

Chapter 49: Autumn is Coming, Spider Silk Makes Clothes

Li Mingsheng felt relieved when he saw the familiar place. He simply lay down on the grass in front of the cave, breathing slightly. Yanli sat down beside him. After the two transformed into human forms and put on their clothes, they lay down on the grass.

Unconsciously, their eyes met, and Li Mingsheng and Yanli both smiled. Today was truly a thrilling and exciting day.

The adventurous journey stimulates dopamine, and both of them enjoy the momentary peace and tranquility.

They lay quietly for about half an hour, with the sun shining on them. Even though it was late summer, it was still hard to bear being exposed to the sun for a long time.

Li Mingsheng and Yanli climbed up, and the two went up to the platform at the entrance of the cave one after the other, and sorted out today's harvest. After Yanli went back to the cave to drink some water, they tacitly went to the grassland and woods to bring back today's prey.

There were many groups of bleating animals around the grassland. He picked the fattest one and then went into the woods, caught two cuckoo chickens, wrapped their eggs, and brought them back wrapped in a piece of animal skin.

Because he had just experienced the horror of being chased by a giant crocodile, Yanli carefully observed whether there was anything strange in the river when he went to the river to deal with the leah beast. They were at the bend of the river, and the water was relatively shallow so they could see the bottom, so most strange beasts liked to come here to drink water. Seeing that there was nothing strange, he began to deal with it with confidence.

Li Mingsheng was not idle either. He took out the things in the backpack one by one, took the honeycomb out from the big leaves, and used bamboo chopsticks to squeeze the honey into bamboo tubes for storage. With three honeycombs, he squeezed out a total of six large bamboo tubes of honey. Li Mingsheng put some on the chopsticks and tasted it. It was very sweet and fragrant, and the aroma was very similar to the locust flower honey in his previous life.

After processing the honey, Li Mingsheng took out the pink fruits and put them in a bamboo basket. There were about twenty of them in total, which were big and pink.

After he placed the fruits on the wooden rack, he began to process the water fern and large-leafed vegetables. After leaving two large heads of large-leafed vegetables for eating in the next two days, he made a fire to boil water, intending to rinse the water fern and the remaining large-leafed vegetables.

After rinsing the leafy vegetables, he put them into a stone jar, intending to make sauerkraut. If he pickled it today, it would be ready to eat in a few days. He could use it to stir-fry the meat of exotic animals and add some red fruits. It would taste sour and spicy, and it would definitely be very appetizing.

When Yanli packed up and brought back the exotic beast meat, Li Mingsheng had just finished pickling it.

Looking at the cuckoo egg in Yanli's hand, Li Mingsheng immediately had an idea.

"Today we're having fried cuckoo eggs with water fern!"

After he made the decision, Yanli nodded affirmatively. Li Mingsheng knew the most about food, so it would be right to listen to him.

At dinner time, there was indeed scrambled eggs with water fern on the small dining table. The water fern tasted crispy, and the aroma of the cuckoo eggs made it delicious.

Li Mingsheng also made a simple steamed egg custard for himself and Yanli. Because the stone bowl did not conduct heat well, he specially took a large bamboo tube to make a bamboo bowl.

The cuckoo egg custard is tender and smooth. With a little salt, it tastes original and not fishy. Yanli likes it very much. He even asked Li Mingsheng to leave a few more so that he can continue to make egg custard.

After eating the egg custard, Yanli likes to go looking for Cuckoo Chicken these days. Although he is very interested, he is also obedient enough and does not run into the deep mountains and forests.

The days passed one by one, and with a rain, the weather turned a little cooler. This rain represented the end of the vibrant summer and the beginning of the desolate and lonely autumn.

With the arrival of autumn rain, Li Mingsheng and Yanli put on lighter animal skins. Before they knew it, they had been deep in Wugui Mountain for more than a month. During this period, they also tanned a lot of animal skins, enough for their use during the snow season.

Because of the rain, the two of them did not go out. They quietly enjoyed this rare leisure time, because with the arrival of autumn, they will become busier and busier.

They need to hunt enough prey, collect enough plants, dig out enough lake roots, pick up enough firewood, and dig the caves deeper, so that they can safely survive the snow season and not starve to death, freeze to death, or freeze to death!

Taking advantage of the rain, Li Mingsheng took out the spider silk that he had rolled out from the nest of the venomous spider. He first boiled it in water to soften it and then took it out. He planned to boil it first and then draw out the silk, just like making silk.

I don’t know if Li Mingsheng was lucky, but he was actually able to pull out the thread from this large bundle of tangled spider silk. He rolled the spider silk into bundles of coils.

Then he made the wooden shuttle and other tools used to weave linen and started to work. The rain lasted for five days in total and it took him two days to finish.

The spider silk was only enough to make a vest. After it was made, he gave the vest to Yanli.

Before sending it, he tried to chop it with a bone knife and even burned it on the fire, but found that it had no effect at all. The spider silk vest was intact.

"Try it on and see if you like it!" Li Mingsheng held up a white spider silk vest and showed it to Yanli.

Yanli looked at the small vest with white silk as white as snow, and felt a pang in his heart. He understood that Li Mingsheng was doing this for him. Ever since Li Mingsheng absorbed the essence of the venomous spider and successfully advanced to a seven-star orc warrior, he always wanted to give Yanli more life-saving things.

Although this spider silk vest is thin, it can protect Yanli's vital parts.

Yanli took the spider silk vest from Li Mingsheng, took off his own fur coat, put it on, and fastened the belt. The white vest made Yanli's skin look delicate.

The entire upper body is bronze-colored because the arms and chest are exposed all year round, and is tanned evenly. It is much darker than the skin that is hidden in linen or animal skin clothes all year round.

"It's very comfortable to wear!" After putting it on, Yanli touched the material on his body. It was smooth. Although some places were not so smooth, for Yanli, this vest was much softer and more comfortable than linen clothes and animal skin clothes.

"That's good as long as you like it. Just wear it like this!" Li Mingsheng saw Yanli was about to take it off and hurriedly stopped her.

For some reason, he liked to have things of his own on Yanli, like the tight-fitting spider silk vest and the linen belt tied around his head.

After a summer, Yanli's hair grew a lot longer. Although Li Mingsheng helped trim it in the middle, it has now reached shoulder length again.

Because she was not going out today, Yanli let her hair down and draped it behind her. Li Mingsheng actually saw a bit of rebelliousness in her hair. Yanli had long hair but she didn't look feminine at all.

It suits him very well, Li Mingsheng commented as he touched his short hair that was close to his scalp.

This autumn rain lasted for five days before it stopped. Some plants on the grass in front of the cave had already shown signs of withering, and their leaves had turned yellow.

The leaves all over the mountains and fields do not have the vitality of summer, indicating that autumn has arrived!
