Starting with nothing but a treehouse seed and no tools, you must find hope for survival in t...

Chapter 141 The Art of Painting

After finishing the carving last night, he was exhausted both physically and mentally and fell asleep directly.

After Coco's little carving was completed, the tree house decoration level had increased to 96.4, almost reaching the 100 mark.

Although I don’t know whether 100 decoration level will work, but the decoration level of 96.4 is really uncomfortable. I should go back and improve the decoration level.

Within a few minutes, Xu Xin was back under the tree house.

Under his tree house, there was a piece of blue-level fertile soil with no plants planted on it. It was the same soil where the apple tree was planted before.

A blue poplar tree grew on this soil after the rainy season ended, but he cut it down in the morning.

Xu Xin tried planting redwood seeds in this blue-level soil, but it didn't work. It seemed that growing redwood required more specialized conditions.

He didn't bring the soil to the plantation on the fourth floor of the tree house. The plantation can only grow relatively low plants, and tall trees still need to be planted under the tree house.

After thinking about it, Xu Xin planted a pine seed in the soil.

His kitchen and bathroom appliances require logs to make. Blue-level logs can be used to upgrade these appliances, which may have unexpected effects.

Although there are no wild animals now, Xu Xin still built a fence around the land for protection.

When we returned to the tree house, it was already after noon, and Silver King and Mimi were lazily lying in the living room.

"Do you guys want to eat more?" Xu Xin asked Yin Wang and Mimi. These two guys were probably about to become intermediate mutant beasts, so they'd better eat more.

However, the two beasts shook their heads. It seemed that the big meal they had in the morning had temporarily satisfied their needs.

Xu Xin took Keke to the cold storage to get a few pieces of mutant beast meat, half of which was stir-fried and the other half was grilled.

While eating, a slight warmth flowed through Xu Xin's body, making him wonder how strong he was now. When he was moving boulders in the morning, he easily lifted a stone that was almost as big as himself.

Of course, this is naturally due to the scale armor on his body and the human-shaped statue in the tree house.

I feel that even without any weapons, it should not be a problem for him to fight a black bear head-on with his bare hands.

After dinner, Coco curled up on the sofa for a nap, and Xu Xin sat on the sofa to rest, thinking about what to do in the afternoon.

This time, he planned not to carve but to paint.

His [Artist] contract not only gave him sculpture skills, but also gave him superb painting skills.

But before that, he needed to make the painting tools.

[Paintbrush: Dip in water to create the desired ink painting, capable of producing Green-level paintings. Requires 1 piece of wood and a strand of animal hair]

A paintbrush requires wood and animal hair. He has plenty of blue-grade wood, but Xu Xin has never obtained animal hair.

Could it be that this kind of resource cannot be decomposed using a boning knife?

Xu Xin looked at the Silver King who was dozing off in the corner.

Isn’t it a ready-made wolf hair brush? Or the wolf hair brush of the mutant wolf king!

Xu Xin smiled and walked up to the Silver King, staring at its silver and red tail.

Wolf hair is actually not the hair from a wolf's tail, but the hair from a weasel's tail. However, using the hair from the silver king's tail should not be a problem.

The Silver King had already opened its eyes when Xu Xin walked over. Looking at his smiling face, it always felt that something bad was going to happen.

“Ouch—”

The bat hanging upside down under the tree house was startled by the Silver King's howling and fell down. It flapped its wings a few times and flew to the window to look inside the house.

Xu Xin was holding a tuft of silver and red fur in his hand, while the Silver King held its tail between its legs, looking at Xu Xin with resentment. A closer look revealed a small bald spot on its tail.

[Mutated Wolf King's Tail Hair: The hair on the tip of the mutant wolf king's tail can be used to make paintbrushes.]

Wow, it’s a blue-level resource!

Xu Xin looked at Silver King's fur with shining eyes, which scared Silver King so much that he ran to Mimi in two steps.

In the end, Xu Xin plucked a few more tufts of hair from it. After all, this guy shed a lot of hair, so it was easy to pluck the hair from its body, and nothing could be seen.

However, to Xu Xin's disappointment, only the hair on the tip of the tail was blue-level hair. The few tufts of hair plucked from the body were not even considered resources, not even white-level.

Well, maybe only the hair on the tip of the tail can be used to make a paintbrush.

If you want it again next time, you can only wait for the hair on the tip of the Silver King's tail to grow out.

Xu Xin immediately used this bunch of blue-level animal hair to make a paintbrush. Because it was made of the hair of the Silver King, the hair of the paintbrush showed a silver and red color.

【Wolf hair brush: Dip in water to create any desired ink painting, and can produce blue-level paintings.】

Beautiful, you can directly draw blue-level paintings!

The pen is ready, next is the paper.

Xu Xin looked through the production list and found two types of paper.

One is paper made from reeds and the other is paper made from mahogany.

Xu Xin looked specifically at the paper made of mahogany.

[Redwood Paper: Paper made from the essence of redwood, can be used as drawing paper. Requires redwood*1]

Paper that can be used as drawing paper.

but……

A piece of paper actually requires a whole piece of redwood!

Gu Jia

One tree only produces two pieces of redwood, and one piece is used for one piece of paper, which means that one tree can only make two pieces of paper!

This mahogany paper is too precious...

Xu Xin was originally thinking about whether he should use a piece of blue-grade mahogany to make a stack of blue-grade paper as a backup, but now he saw that there was no stack at all, only one piece!
