Chapter 114: Adding a Slate Door (2)

According to the law that the sun rises in the east and sets in the west, the cave they live in faces north and south, so the lighting and ventilation are very good.

But now it is the hot season, and the width and height of the cave are more than two meters, and it is wide open.

It was fine in the morning, but in the afternoon, the sun was setting in the west, shining directly on the cave entrance. Staying in there was like being in a steamer or oven, and it was impossible to stay there.

At night, although the temperature did not drop much, the wind was blowing everywhere and the entrance to the cave was not blocked. When I got up every day, there would be a lot of fallen leaves and debris piled up at the door.

Not to mention that because there was a bonfire at the entrance of the cave, there would often be a lot of dead insects because insects are attracted to light.

Although these are not particularly big troubles, they still affect the living experience to some extent.

Now, the stone door is blocked on the west side, leaving only an east passage that is wide enough for one person to pass through, which can ensure ventilation and protect against the western sun.

At night, move the campfire to the side with the door so that the smoke will not enter the cave, attract fewer mosquitoes, and not affect lighting and protection, killing two birds with one stone.

Si Ye fixed the wooden door according to Xia Tian's instructions, and moved the bonfire outside the stone door.

It was afternoon now, and most of the setting sun was instantly blocked, making the cave much cooler.

Xia Tian brought him a cup of flower and fruit tea to cool him down and quench his thirst. She planned to let him rest for a few days and then ask him to help with the stone jar and stone basin after a while.

As a result, Si Ye took the bowl of flower and fruit tea and drank it all. Without sitting down to rest, he went out again.

However, this time, Si Ye didn't just leave without saying a word. Instead, he suddenly seemed to think of something, turned his head and winked in the girl's direction. "Oh, by the way, I got a few stone vats and basins. They're still outside. I'll go get them now."

After saying that, he turned around and changed into a beast form, and disappeared into the jungle in a few jumps.

Xia Tian was thinking about the pickled meat outside and the baskets she would make later. She had gotten used to Si Ye often leaving the camp without saying a word these days, and when she suddenly heard him "frankly explain" his plans, she was a little unresponsive for a moment.

Wait, she didn't seem to mention the stone jars and stone basins, so why did he think of preparing them in advance?

Also, this kind of scene where you explain your whereabouts before leaving the house... I always feel like something is wrong?

[Hahahaha, it's just like a boy reporting his whereabouts to his girlfriend]

[I hit it, it’s so sweet!!!]

[The previous one was too microscopic, I couldn't see it at all...]

[I just don't know when the anchor will get the hang of it? ]

Xia Tian knew that the comments in the live broadcast room always liked to over-interpret things, so she didn't take these things to heart. Now she just wanted to quickly prepare the pickled meat before night fell, and also quickly weave the baskets to hold things.

Apply salt a third time to the marinated meat so that it does not need to be processed again and can be hung to air dry daily.

Since it was still light outside, she hung the meat on the rack and used the smoke from the campfire to slowly remove the bloody smell.

However, we still need to think about where to hang it. If we hang it outside, it will easily be eaten by small animals. If we hang it in the cave, we need to find a suitable place and discuss it with Si Ye first.

After processing the meat, I finally had time to sit down and weave baskets.

This kind of basket for storing things should be lightweight and portable, and the handles should be sturdy and durable so that it will not easily break when moved around or hung somewhere.
