I'm bad and I'm hitting a wall, primitive life requires hard work
Chapter 51 Preparing for Travel
"Lu Si, Lu Yu, you two just use this stone knife to cut the radish into strips this big."
Nishi Ichisu held a sharp stone knife in her hand and demonstrated as she spoke. She pressed the radish firmly on a clean stone surface and skillfully cut it into radish strips of even thickness.
In order to make dried radish, Nishi Ichiqi got up early today, and even temporarily "recruited" the two sisters Lu Si and Lu Yu from the weaving team.
"No problem, Wu Xiqi." The two responded in unison.
Nishi Ichiki stopped what he was doing, turned around and said to Yanya, "Yanya, can you help the sisters collect the cut radish strips and spread them out in this basket, please?"
Then, she spread the cut radish strips evenly in the basket that Wu Lu and others had prepared last night.
Looking at these smooth and exquisite baskets, Xi Yiqi's eyes became slightly moist and an indescribable feeling of emotion surged in his heart.
Last night, after Wu Lu and his companions finished their food, they did not go to rest immediately. Instead, they sat around the campfire and continued to weave hard in the faint light of the fire.
This is done just to make these baskets today.
They knew that these baskets were important tools for drying radishes, wild vegetables and herbs, and were of great significance to the tribe.
Yanya replied obediently: "Yeah, Yanya knows!"
Nishi Ichisu smiled and touched Iwaya's little head with a bun.
Since that time Nishi Ichisu helped several children wash their hair, they quickly mastered the technique of washing hair.
Whenever their hair was dirty, the children would take the initiative to run to the river to wash it. Even though there were no soapberries, their hair was still kept very clean.
Oh, right.
From then on, every morning, there was a group of children around Wu Yu, who waited obediently for Wu Yu to braid their hair.
Things won't get less, but they will shift.
Nishi Ichiki had originally planned to teach the older children how to tie their own hair so that they wouldn't have to bother Wu Yu all the time.
However, when she saw the joy in Wu Yu's eyes and the children's admiration, she decisively gave up the idea.
Come back to your senses,
After being demonstrated personally, the two sisters quickly mastered the technique and skillfully cut the radish into strips of uniform thickness.
"After cutting them, put them in the sun to dry for three to five days. If it rains, remember to quickly put the baskets into the tribe's storage cave. Don't let them get wet!" Xi Yiqi continued to explain the next step.
"Okay." The two sisters nodded quickly to show that they understood.
She looked up at the scorching sun hanging high in the sky, hesitated for a moment, and then continued:
"If it's not dried before I leave the tribe, the remaining steps will need to be completed by the two of you."
Hearing this, the two sisters couldn't help but feel a little confused.
They asked curiously, "Wu Xiqi, where are you going?"
Nishi Ichiki smiled and replied, "In three days, I will go to the Wasa tribe with Wu Yu."
When these words came out, both of them were shocked and looked at each other - this sudden news made them a little unbelievable for a moment.
In the Yanyuan tribe, women and children generally would not go on long journeys because it was too dangerous.
Therefore, they never expected that Wu Xiqi would follow Wu Yu to the Washa tribe.
This is a journey that lasts six days and nights!
"Is our tribe short of salt again?" The two men couldn't help but feel a little worried.
But not long ago, Wu Yu brought back a large amount of salt from the Washa tribe?
Nishi Ichisu shook his head to express his denial, but at the same time he nodded and explained:
"The salt in the tribe is enough for the tribe to consume, but we need more salt to make food, tan leather and other uses."
"Wu, you must pay attention to the wild beasts along the way and return safely." After hearing this, the two men did not ask any more questions, but clenched their fists on their chests and said solemnly.
They sincerely thanked the witch for her efforts, after all, the forest was full of dangers.
"By the way, Wu Xiqi, what are the next steps?" Silu asked.
"Wait a few days, when the moisture in these radish strips has dried up and they start to curl up, you can collect them. Then, have someone bring out the tribe's large stone jars, use up the water, and place the jars in the sun to dry. Be sure to touch them with your hands to confirm whether they are completely dry!"
Speaking of this, Nishi Ichiki couldn't help but feel a little worried.
The weather in primitive society was changeable and the caves were very humid.
This was also the first time she used the resources of the primitive tribe to make dried radishes. If they were not stored properly and became spoiled and moldy, this hard-earned food would be ruined.
"Okay, Wu, we will remember it." Lu Si and Lu Yu answered seriously.
"Remember! Make sure to keep it dry and don't let the radish come into contact with water!" She thought about it and emphasized it again.
"Yeah!" The two nodded.
Nishi Ichisu asked the two to repeat themselves to make sure they remembered all the steps.
Only then did I feel relieved.
Counting the days, the day when the work is completed is about the same as the time when I return to the tribe.
Those who are chosen to weave baskets are careful people, and I hope they can do a good job.
Afterwards, Nishi Ichisu stayed for a while, and after making sure there was no problem, he went to find Youxi.
She needs to prepare supplies for the journey within the next three days.
After all, this is not modern society, where there are hotels and takeaways everywhere.
Therefore, it is necessary to plan well in advance.
Nishi Ichisu took some thick animal skins, found Youxi, and begged her to help him make animal skin shoes.
Youxi had already learned how to make this kind of shoes when Xi Yiqi made animal leather shoes for Wu Yu and Xi Yi last time.
Therefore, asking her for help can save a lot of effort.
"Okay, I will try my best to make durable animal leather shoes, but how many pairs do you need?" Youxi asked.
Xi Yiqi thought for a moment and replied, "Make a pair for Nia, Arthur and Yanluo each."
Wu Yu could continue to wear the shoes he had made before, and his own pair had also been made in his spare time.
Only these three people need a pair of durable animal leather shoes.
Thinking of this, Xi Yiqi couldn't help but recall the scene this morning when he went to the tribe leader to discuss setting off to the Washa tribe as soon as possible:
In the past, Nia and Yanluo always accompanied Wu Yu to the Wasa tribe.
But this time things are different...
