When Lu Ning dragged the two snow leopards back to the camp, it was almost sunset.

The red stones in his arms had already turned cold. Lu Ning lit two campfires on the road and used up the last bit of flint before finally returning to the camp, shivering in the cold wind.

Today is really a fruitful day.

Two snow leopards, each weighing twice as much as him - which is why he came back so late.

Lu Ning skillfully peeled the skin, picked out the tendons, removed the bones, and cut the meat... quickly dismantling the two snow leopards into a pile of materials.

The fur of this thing is quite thick, and there is a thick layer of fat under the skin. No wonder even a stone thrown at it does not pose a threat.

Lu Ning sighed and roughly washed the fur and hung it to dry next to the campfire.

After cleaning up the two monsters and roasting some meat, Lu Ning went to take a look at the field behind the tent.

The lantern plant has already bloomed and looks like it will bear fruit again soon.

And in several other pits, sprouts have already sprouted.

"It's great. It seems like we're not far away from eating the vegetables we grow ourselves."

Lu Ning rubbed his hands, overjoyed.

In the next two days, Lu Ning still went out to hunt snow leopards as usual, but this time he did not kill a few more in one go, but only killed one per day to facilitate transportation.

A few days later, the snow leopard's lair was completely cleared by Lu Ning, and his harvest was naturally huge.

Not only has there been meat every meal these days, but there is still a lot left, which is frozen in a corner of the shabby house.

In addition, there are also a lot of resources such as fur, bones, ligaments, animal tendons and other resources.

Today, the first batch of furs has been processed. Lu Ning took them off the shelf, took out a bone knife, bone needles and silk thread made from ligaments, and began to sew clothes.

As mentioned before, Lu Ning was very skilled in needlework. Although he had never actually made clothes, according to the method on the drawing, a sleeveless animal skin vest was quickly cut.

Lu Ning put the vest on his body and was very happy.

This piece of clothing is far inferior to the big-name clothes bought in the mall in terms of appearance and craftsmanship, but Lu Ning feels that this is simply the best piece of clothing she has ever worn.

After all, this thing is warm enough.

Lu Ning did not stop, and continued to put on an animal skin skirt around herself. He also cut a real leather belt from scraps and tied it up. Then he turned the spear in his hands and built a pergola with his hands.

This shape, coupled with the stick-like weapon in his hand, makes him always have the urge to imitate a certain monkey.

After playing around for a long time, Lu Ning finally stopped his half-hearted behavior, put the spear aside, and continued the work at hand.

Naturally, a vest alone was not enough, so Lu Ning made two more sleeves and sewed them on, followed by a fur vest, fur scarf, fur underwear...

Anyway, I just made a complete set, and there were many failed works during the period. For example, the vest was larger than the vest and could not be put on, and the underwear was made inside out, Mao Chongli...

Then when he was taking it apart and redoing it, he suddenly remembered that this thing didn't seem to need to be separated inside and outside, just turned it over...

In the end, Lu Ning used some of the remaining scraps to make a simple backpack, and finally used up all the first batch of materials.

Lu Ning wiped the sweat from his forehead and looked up to see that the horizon had been polished.

Only then did he realize that he had been too devoted and unknowingly stayed up all night.

Now the work and rest are completely wasted.

Lu Ning sighed, but didn't care that much. He stood up facing the direction of the rising sun and stretched straight.

Lu Ning felt extremely satisfied when looking at the numerous works on the ground.

This feeling of satisfaction lasted until he saw the campfire was about to go out.

"I've almost demolished this house, why isn't this winter over yet..."

Lu Ning used a hand ax to remove a piece of wood from the wall of the broken house with only one corner left, folded it into several pieces and added them to the campfire, while thinking worriedly.

At this rate, this shabby house can still burn for about ten days before reaching the sky, but this cold winter shows no sign of receding.

Although Lu Ning paid attention to the fuel he could collect when he went hunting these days, it was really a drop in the bucket.

"There is a forest over there at Snow Leopard. It would be great if I could cut some firewood... But I only have this hand axe. The most I can do is cut off some branches or scrape off some bark, but it's still not enough."

Lu Ning thought about it and couldn't think of any effective solution.

Make your own stone ax for cutting wood?

Lu Ning touched his chin.

This seems like a good idea.

He has experience in making spears. I guess making axes here is about the same... right?

Get a wooden handle, polish an ax head with cobblestones, and then tie the two together with a straw rope - watching TV shows, it seems that the axes of primitive people are like this.

The low-level stone axes in some games seem to look like this.

In short, it doesn't matter whether it works or not - let's try it first and then decide. Lu Ning nodded and made his decision.

But this matter is not urgent for the time being - Lu Ning yawned long and dove into the tent.

I'll touch it today.

…

After sleeping until noon, Lu Ning felt that his head hurt from sleeping.

It’s better to have a regular schedule...

Lu Ning rubbed his temples and got up from the tent, walked around to the back and took a look.

The first lantern plant has green fruits on it, which look inedible.

In addition, the three lanterns grown from seeds are growing well, and their leaves are the same as the first generation, clear green and full of vitality.

The plants grown from several other seeds had different shapes, but Lu Ning had never seen these before. He didn't know if they were normal or not, and he didn't know what they would look like in the end.

But overall, things should be stable and improving.

Lu Ning left the field with satisfaction, baked something to eat, and then went to find a suitable piece of wood and cobblestones.

Taking advantage of the fact that the dilapidated house could still be burned for a few days, Lu Ning planned to make a wood-cutting ax as soon as possible to chop wood.

This time, he had no drawings to refer to. No one told him what details he needed to pay attention to. He didn't even know what the finished product should look like. Lu Ning relied entirely on his own imagination and those who didn't know whether it would be useful when making the spear.

Experience comes in making a tool from scratch.

This was much more difficult than he expected.

How long should a wooden handle be?

What shape should the ax head be?

How can you tie the ax head and ax handle together so that they are strong enough not to come loose during cutting?

Lu Ning didn't know anything about these, so he could only do it with his head down, and then test and adjust it.

A few days passed, and the ax handles were discarded one after another, and all the nearby round stones of suitable size were picked up by him, so Lu Ning had to go further to look for stones.

Then he found that the wood in the broken house was too rotten and insufficient in strength. Even though it had selected the best pieces of wood, it still broke directly during the chopping test.

Wood from broken houses cannot be used to make axes.

He must get some better wood.

You can't get wood without an axe.

Just when Lu Ning was worrying about the wood, he didn't expect that the ghost gave him a huge surprise that night.
