Chapter 178: The Spider Thorn

The cotton spider has basically grown to the size of a man's palm, like a pink ball of fur, with a bulging abdomen, and you can tell at a glance that it is spitting out a lot of spider silk.

The next day, Josh began to work on the research and development of small medical equipment.

Before, I asked them to wrap a seed of Warm Light Cattail with spider silk, which can heal minor injuries. It is a high-end version of a Band-Aid.

Qiao Xi plans to further improve the technology and environmental requirements so that they can produce and innovate in a dry and clean environment to prepare for the winter pioneering war.

Josh carried a clean little basket and went to the spider bush to pick them up, letting them jump into the basket one by one, and took them back to the farm hut for research and development.

Josh cleaned out an empty room and planned to use it as a workspace in the future.

Without disinfection equipment, Josh could only open the window wider and wider to allow ventilation, and then wipe the workbench several times with a hot towel.

As for the woolly spiders, we can't put them in a basin of boiling water to disinfect them, so we can only wipe their hair and feet one by one, as if we were washing our hands and disinfecting them.

There's no need to worry about the physique of this alien. These few bacteria shouldn't be a problem, right?

Putting the Mian Mian Spider on the large workbench, Qiao Xi sat upright and said to the Mian Mian Spider who still hadn't figured it out: "Mian Mian Spider, you have been taking classes for so long, now it's time to test you, tell me if you have confidence!"

The scene was completely silent. No, the little spiders were waving their hairy legs vigorously, echoing Josh. They had confidence!

"Okay, the atmosphere here is very lively, so don't get excited yet." Qiao Xi smiled with satisfaction and waved his hand, signaling them to stay calm.

Taking out the prepared warm light cattail, he said, "Little spiders, now please form teams of two. I will allocate ten warm light cattail seeds to each team. Please use your own methods to weave the warm light cattail into the spider silk within the specified time to weave a long ribbon."

"It's about this long and this wide," Josh gestured the approximate length and width of the bandage so that they could have an idea.

Seeing the little spiders rubbing their hands and taking orders, Josh took out the hourglass, distributed the Warm Light Pu in order, and separated the teams of little spiders a little to give them enough space to weave. Then he turned the hourglass upside down and gave the order: "Ready, go!"

As Josh's voice fell, the spiders began their creation without stopping. They had recently learned some skills from Aunt Daisy and now felt very good about themselves.

No one wanted Josh to look down on them, so a variety of skills emerged one after another.

Qiao Xi was originally sitting nearby watching, but the flash of the skill was too dazzling, so she quickly moved away.

However, the uneven skill levels made Josh doubt the attitude of some spiders in class. You little jerk, you sleep when others are in class, right? You can't even spin silk evenly.

Faced with Josh's sharp eyes, a few little spiders with poor psychological quality failed to release their skills due to nervousness, and then tried again in a panic.

Was he putting too much pressure on them? Josh thought about moving away and not staring at them.

After thinking about it, Qiao Xi went out and pulled the breezy grass that he had put on the straw mat yesterday. It already made a rustling sound when rubbed. It was half dried in the sun, and it would be almost done after drying it for another day today. In the afternoon, he collected the dried ones and put new ones on.

There are not enough straw mats and bamboo mats, so we can only take turns drying them like this.

After checking them one by one, Qiao Xi peeked at them from outside the house for a while. When she thought the hourglass was about to run out, she quietly walked in.

Some of them were still trying to improve themselves and filling in the gaps in the weaving, while some were careless and just finished the work hastily and started to slack off. There were also some bad spiders who didn't do the work themselves and left it to their friends. Qiao Xi took note of them in his heart, and they would suffer the consequences.

"Okay, time's up. Now I'm going to start testing your learning results during this period." Josh said seriously, his eyes sharp, causing those guilty little spiders to reveal their true colors unconsciously.

After all, it was the first time, and Josh's requirements were not high. He just wanted to weave the shape of the bandage. We could slowly make changes to the details.

As a result, some were woven into a large net full of holes, some were woven into strange patterns, some were woven in the shape of a bandage in the front and crooked in the back, anyway, there were all kinds of patterns.

Well, the standards have to be lowered.

Can't be too hard on them, Josh told himself.

Then let's see who can weave the smallest mesh that looks most like a ribbon.

I actually found a few that were woven well, with the spider silk skillfully spun and layered on top of each other. Although the shape was a bit strange, the entire piece of spider silk cloth had small mesh and dense silk, so it was the type that could be used after being cut.

Josh picked out the barely acceptable ones and said, "This one is okay. It's a great first time. I'll give you a honey lollipop as a reward later."

The cute big eyes of the little spiders suddenly lit up, and they all wanted to eat delicious food.

After talking about the good things, it's time to talk about the bad things. Josh won't say them if you do it seriously but not well, but if you don't do it seriously and fool around, humph.

"You, you, you, and you all, get out." The little spiders who were called looked at each other and tiptoed out.

They are all careless and lazy, and they feel guilty about it.

"The following little spiders are all bad spiders who don't complete their tasks seriously and try to get away with it, especially you, Xiaofen." Josh emphasized.

"You are being lazy and not helping Xiao Huang, and you are holding him back, aren't you?"

The little pink spider kicked the spider web on the workbench, telling Josh that it just didn't like doing it.

Well, Josh met the first troublemaker in history, and to be honest, she really didn’t know what to do.

Not knowing how to communicate with it, Josh decided to just ignore it for a while.

Josh looked at the other inattentive spiders and said, "Anyone who agrees with him? Please stand up." The other spiders shook their heads. No, no!

Xiaofen rolled his eyes in disdain and waved his hairy legs, saying, "What a bunch of cowards!" Then he stole a glance at Josh's expression and began to feel a little flustered.

It’s okay, it mustered up the courage to comfort itself. It just didn’t want to go along with everyone. It had its own things to do, and it didn’t care about such a small matter at all.

Seeing that Josh still ignored it, Xiaofen became even more worried. Why didn't Josh look at it more?

"Okay, the little spider that works hard on knitting will also be able to eat a honey lollipop later. The rest of the little spiders can choose to leave and go back to the spider lawn, or they can stay here and watch the little spiders who work hard eat their honey lollipops and then practice knitting together."

"Is there any little spider that wants to leave?" Josh asked, looking at the little pinky.

None of the spiders wanted to leave. They just wanted to play, not to be driven back! Then they all looked at Xiaofen.

Little Pink's eyes felt a little sore. It didn't want to leave. What was the fun in going back? It should have worked hard earlier. It widened its eyes and glared at the other spiders looking at it. What are you looking at? I won't leave.

My dears, here I come. With your strong support, the current backend ranking of this book has gone up and has not fallen down. Hahaha, I am so happy. Thank you all, click on the monthly ticket to help Shushu! Every time I open the backend, I smile secretly. I never thought that Shushu would have this day, haha.
