Chapter 200 Food is running low

Another hour passed, and it was around 4 p.m.

The mud was almost completely applied, and dense leaves were pasted around the outside as tiles.

Once dry, the leaves can completely blend with the mud.

This way, we won't have to worry about heavy rain washing away the soil.

It's both beautiful and practical.

At this moment, the walls of the treehouse, which had originally resembled a wooden prison, have turned completely green.

At first glance, it really does look like a plant fortress.

Except for the few shooting skylights, the entire roof has been covered with green vegetation.

Ye Feng first used fern leaves as a base to surround the area, and then laid out moss and palm leaves in sequence.

In the end, it took a total of 5 layers to finish, because it was the rainy season and waterproofing had to be done well.

"Brother, I'm done too. Four skylights and four windows, what do you think, is that suitable?"

Ye Feng took the square window from Fu Changxiong's hand.

This is a skylight window made of several logs of the same length bound together.

At the edges in all four directions, you can also see some obvious grooves.

This was deliberately carved out by Ye Feng; he had prepared it long ago.

Because if we don't do that, the roof will bulge out.

So once it rains, rainwater will flow into the house, and the location of the skylight will be easily noticed.

He took the window, carried the roof, and placed it directly over the window.

Those grooves fit perfectly into the four frames of the window.

While not perfectly seamless, it at least blends in to some extent with the horizontal line of the roof.

If you cover it with a few more layers of leaves, you absolutely won't be able to tell unless you look very closely.

He quickly blocked all four skylights and tied them with palm leaves and moss.

As for the smoke exhaust vent, it still adopts the supported skylight type.

This time, however, Ye Feng used a binding method to secure it, so it wouldn't be blown away by the wind, and the lighting was also good.

Half an hour later, the windows in the treehouse walls and the two entrances and exits on the floor were also installed.

The window was the same as before, with one end tied to the top edge of the window with several ropes, but not tied too tightly to maintain flexibility.

After pushing it open, use two wooden sticks of the same length to support both sides, making it very convenient to use.

After the installation was complete, he took a can of silt and climbed back onto the roof.

There was no other way, because the entire roof frame was built around the main tree trunk that protruded from the center of the treehouse.

Therefore, there are still quite a few gaps at the joints, which will not be filled in time.

When it rains, the rainwater will flow into the treehouse through this main trunk.

Ye Feng asked Fu Changxiong to hand him some weeds, which he stuffed into the crevices, and then he covered the main trunk with mud.

After that, cut the fern leaves into the shape of tiles and stick them on top.

Moss also clung tightly to the sides, and finally, palm leaves were used to surround the main stem, which was then tied with vines.

The treehouse is finally complete.

5 p.m.

Ye Feng and his four companions stood beneath the treehouse, craning their necks and looking up at it with smiles on their faces.

That smile conveyed satisfaction, a sense of accomplishment, excitement, joy, and exhilaration…

They finally have a home of their own, a safe and comfortable home.

From then on, there was no longer a need to keep a fire burning all night to keep away wild animals and mosquitoes.

In addition, the pressure from threats from other humans has also decreased significantly.

At least, they are absolutely safe while they are sleeping.

In the evening, the group took the leftover taro dough from making dumplings the day before, rolled it into pancakes, and then pan-fried them.

Once they turn golden brown, they can be taken out of the pan.

Although it tasted slightly off, the group still raved about it.

After eating, the group went to sleep.

Within 10 minutes, snoring filled the air.

Even the two girls, Liu Sisi and Qi Xiaoyan, started snoring.

Therefore, a sense of security is the guarantee of sleep quality.

Ye Feng lay diagonally on the floor, his mind still filled with a multitude of thoughts.

Now that the most important task has been accomplished, the next step is to address the food problem.

The consumption of five people was too great; the little food left could only last them for a week at most.

There's no other way; everyone's been doing manual labor lately, and the wounded need a lot of nutritional supplements.

The smoked jerky shrank so much that even Liu Sisi, the girl with the smallest appetite, could eat ten or so pieces, let alone the three grown men.

"Sigh... there's so much to do."

Ye Feng sighed inwardly, his eyelids slowly drooping.

While everyone was asleep, the breeze in the woods gradually grew stronger.

A rumbling thunderclap echoed in the pitch-black night sky.

The chirping of insects all around suddenly subsided at that moment.

As it turned out, Ye Feng was right. In less than 5 minutes, the rain poured down, forming a curtain of rain.

The impact bent some of the leaves and branches.

And for the next three days, the rain almost never stopped...

Before we knew it, it was the morning of the 37th day of the game.

In the early morning forest, surrounded by thick white fog, the big fish seemed unchanged.

However, the birdsong that usually filled the surroundings was now barely audible.

Or perhaps it was drowned out by the loud sound of the rain.

At this moment, Ye Feng was still having a sweet dream.

He returned to his familiar home and was sitting at the dining table.

Grandma and Auntie each carried a plate of scrambled eggs and slowly walked towards him from the kitchen.

Just as he excitedly raised his chopsticks to start eating, a few cold water droplets suddenly leaked from the ceiling and landed right on his forehead.

Ye Feng woke up instantly, and when he sat up, he saw that the roof was leaking.

The others had already woken up, and they were all standing by the window, discussing something in hushed tones.

"Has the rain still not stopped?"

Ye Feng also got up and walked to a window.

Although the rain outside wasn't as heavy as it was two days ago, it was still torrential.

Even the muddy ground under the treehouse was covered with a layer of muddy water.

If we truly achieve food freedom, then this rainy scene wouldn't be so bad after all.

"Brother, you're so smart! If we hadn't finished building the house a couple of days ago, we'd probably all be soaked to the bone by now."

Look, you built a five-layered roof, and it's all soaked.

Fu Changxiong pointed to several leaks on the roof and quickly began placing jars to catch the rain.

At this moment, Liu Sisi opened another bag and handed it to Ye Feng.

"Brother Feng, I counted, there are still 48 pieces of jerky left, and they are mostly dried fish, so they won't last long."

I estimate that even if we eat sparingly, we'll probably only last three days at most.

"Um."

Ye Feng nodded helplessly.

He had thought of this problem a few days ago.

He had planned to go find wild boars the day after the treehouse was built.

However, the rain that day was too heavy, and in that kind of weather, it was virtually impossible for wild boars to come out.

Moreover, he currently has no bait to lure wild boars.
