Chapter 29 Farther Away
When Wang Yang made this wooden board, he actually made a lid, mainly to cover the barrel and prevent them from taking away the nuts.
Of course, he is not building his own barrel. His barrel has holes. He is going to cover the barrel made by Zhang San.
He dug a hole in the center of the lid, the size of a wooden spear, and then dug a hole in the center of the barrel, the same size, in the bottom.
Then he took two small pieces of wood and dug holes respectively.
After using a wooden spear to connect the lid to the hole at the bottom of the barrel, knock two small wooden blocks into both ends of the barrel, and the barrel was successfully locked.
After doing this, he called to Zhang San who was watching and told him to imitate him, cut the wooden boards and seal the barrels.
Zhang San really likes to imitate, and I don’t know if he understood Wang Yang’s instructions and squatted aside and started doing it.
Wang Yang smiled with satisfaction and entered the forest again with the equipment.
Needless to say, the purpose of entering the forest this time is to find more food sources.
He came to the big tree where one was carved last time.
There are four arrows carved on the tree trunk: up, down, left and right. The lower one represents the back, the upper one represents the front, and left and right naturally means left and right.
His purpose for doing this was to make sure that there were no errors or omissions in the surrounding search area. It could also be regarded as a small map.
First, he explored to the left.
He has not explored this area before. He has been walking in a straight line. This area is still blank from the foot of the mountain on the left.
Wang Yang walked in. He still seemed very cautious about places he had not explored before, pausing every ten steps.
This section may be close to the foot of the mountain. The trees are not very tall and the sunlight leaks out more. There are many weeds and bushes on the ground, so you need to pay special attention when walking.
Push aside the weeds under your feet to see if there are any poisonous snakes or scorpions ambush you before you can move forward.
It's a little slow, but it's extremely safe.
After walking for a while, I didn't see any danger. I think this place is still the territory of the saber-toothed tiger, and generally large animals will not come here.
There were no large animals, but there were many small animals. He often saw snakes hanging on the trees, colorful snakes that he couldn't name, spitting out their cores and watching him silently.
There are also some lizards and chameleons that you really can’t tell if you don’t look carefully. They are very well camouflaged.
Until we reached the foot of the mountain, we didn't find a single fruit tree.
He raised his head and looked up at the hill, which was probably fifty meters above sea level.
Under the cyan outline, the green edge surrounds the blue sky, and the white clouds flutter gently, looking relaxed and happy, like a frozen painting.
This picture is even more beautiful than the photos processed using image processing software today.
Wang Yang didn't feel any emotion. He took a few cursory glances and saw no fruit trees around the bottom of the mountain, so he gave up the idea of going up the mountain.
Return to the fruit tree along the original path, make a cross on the arrow on the left side, and walk to the right.
The right side is also close to the mountain, and the area is not as large as the left side. Wang Yang only walked for a short time and reached the foot of the mountain.
On a tree here, there is a beehive, and the bumblebees are buzzing.
Wang Yang added his words, but did not dare to make a move.
Because he found that at the foot of the mountain, twenty meters away from him, a burly and majestic black bear was staring at him with drooling eyes.
Wang Yang narrowed his eyes slightly and judged the gap between the two sides.
I am a 50kg light heavyweight, and my opponent is a 300kg super heavyweight, so I have no chance of fighting.
Moreover, the other party's face was so dark, he must be a rogue in the extreme, and he was so evil that he had no face to see others.
When encountering an opponent like this, there is only one word...Run!
If he ran away directly, Wang Yang was not sure. He was not sure whether the big black bear wanted to eat himself or honey.
Or...want to eat them all?
In order to give the black bear a multiple-choice question, Wang Yang narrowed his eyes, held the stone in his hand, and shook it slightly.
"Snapped!"
The hive fell to the ground, and the bumblebee immediately went crazy, making a thunderous buzzing sound.
The big black bear has rough skin and thick flesh, and is not afraid of hornets. When he sees the hive falling, he speeds up and rushes over, picks up the hive and tears it apart.
The hornet launched a frantic attack and stung the big black bear continuously.
Wang Yang didn't hesitate anymore, turned around, and left quickly as if his feet were greased.
It seems that the big black bear chose honey.
After returning to the tree, Wang Yang raised his hand and carved a cross on the tree, and wrote the word "bear" next to it, marking the location of the big black bear.
There is nothing on the left, nothing on the right, and now only the front is left.
"The road ahead is long..."
Wang Yang was extremely cautious when facing the unknown world. The deeper the forest went, the more unpredictable it became.
He held a stone awl in his left hand and a wooden spear in his right hand, and walked forward slowly.
The sunlight in front is blocked more, and the line of sight is not very wide. It feels like the eyes are covered by a layer of gauze, and the vision is not very clear.
Moreover, the climate here already has a bit of a tropical rain forest. The air is very stuffy and humid, as if it is being pressed by something, making people breathless.
Moreover, the trees here have some changes from those outside the forest. Most of the bark on the outside of the forest is the kind of uneven, black and hard bark that can be seen everywhere in modern times.
The trees here, however, have a much smoother surface, and their colors vary from dark to light, with a slight hint of dark green.
Wang Yang's eyes lit up and he was secretly excited: "Could it be that the bark of this kind of tree, similar to poplar, can be used to make ropes?"
Wang Yang stepped forward and observed carefully.
Wang Yang has always wanted to make a rope. The easiest thing is to find a rattan.
If that doesn't work, you can make it from tree bark.
But not all bark can be made into rope, it must be those with relatively high fiber and good flexibility.
This sets a large frame for the scope of acquisition.
Of course, at first Wang Yang, like many people, thought that a tree could be twisted into a rope.
As a result, he tried this method when he was very young, and what came out was not a rope, but sand-like particles...
At that moment, he realized that his cognition was too idealistic and he thought of things too simply.
That's why I'm so excited now.
As long as the bark of this tree is similar to poplar, you can really make rope easily.
This tree is only two meters high and is not too densely distributed, with one tree every ten meters.
The branches of the tree are only twenty or thirty centimeters thick. The leaves are similar to mulberry leaves, with serrated edges and five centimeters in length.
The entire crown of the branch grew very strangely. It shifted to the left at a position of one meter, and finally it was exposed to the sun.
Wang Yang lamented that he had no idea what this kind of tree was called, but it had amazing vitality and toughness, and would completely bend its back for a little sunshine.
He walked forward, reached out and touched the branch, frowned, and murmured to himself: "Soft?"
