The raccoon orc is not as fast as Xuan, nor can he jump over other people's houses like Xuan. Overall, he walks very steadily.
When they reached the door, the raccoon man lay down. Meng Yuqing got off him, looked at him and said with a smile, "Thank you for troubling you today."
The raccoon orc smiled a little embarrassedly, "It's no trouble. If it weren't for Wu, A Su and the others might not have survived. We are all very grateful to you."
He stood up, looking a little reserved. "Wu, I'll go back first."
"Well, go back." Meng Yuqing waved at him.
He also imitated and waved.
Meng Yuqing laughed out loud when he saw it. It was so funny to see a giant raccoon waving goodbye at him. He would definitely see other orcs doing this action in their animal form if he had the chance in the future.
After the other party left, Meng Yuqing turned and went into the house.
There were only a few days left in the three-month life of the yellow light stones. After returning from the market, he thought that these yellow light stones were definitely not enough to be shared by so many tribesmen, and he still needed a cheaper and more convenient lighting method.
Especially when it's summer when you come back, should you light a fire at home for lighting?
Help! Let him go! He's considered healthy in the modern world, but not in this world! He'll get a heat stroke!
The temperature has been 48 degrees Celsius for more than half a month, and it’s scary to think about burning a fire in the house.
I don’t know how the people in this world survived.
So as soon as he returned to the tribe, he told Xia about this. Xia sent the orcs in the tribe to the river and cut a lot of rush. No rush was spared by the stream or the pond.
Anyway, this kind of grass grows fast, and next year it will be a large green area again.
It was late summer and early autumn, a good time to collect rushes.
After cutting it, dry it in the shade for two days, peel out the milky white core, soak it in oil, then pick out one end and light it.
However, the oil used here is animal oil, which tends to solidify when the temperature drops, so it needs to be heated slightly before lighting the lamp.
Put the oil in a very small dish, then put a few more wicks in it and light them to maintain the temperature and prevent the oil from solidifying. It will also be brighter than putting only one wick in it.
The oil will just burn faster, which is not a big deal.
However, animal oil does have a bit of a smell when it burns.
Fortunately, the amount is not large, and the sub-beasts can basically ignore the smell. The orcs are quite accepting of the smell, and some even say it smells good.
As expected, he doesn't understand the world of orcs.
The rush lighting method was quickly popularized in the tribe. People preferred this method to burning a bonfire at home. A small cluster of flames on a small ceramic plate illuminated the entire room.
It is easy to take away and easy to extinguish, just blow on it.
When Meng Yuqing saw the rush on the ceramic plate burning with tiny lights for the first time, he couldn't help but marvel at the magic of nature.
I picked up the yellow light stone on the table and took a look at it. Although the stone was about to expire, it was still a bright yellow light stone. There was no sign that it would turn into an ordinary, gray stone in a few days.
Meng Yuqing supported his chin and thought, no wonder Huang Guangshi is so popular, every tribe with the conditions wants to exchange it.
It’s a pity that it is monopolized by those big tribes. They can’t exchange it. Even if they can, they can only exchange a few. The price of yellow light stone is really expensive.
In other words, those tribes went astray. In order to exclude the Yellowstone Tribe, they refused to accept the Yellow Light Stone and were complacent, thinking they had gained an advantage.
I really thought that collecting some fireflies could replace the yellow light stone.
After Xuan told him the news about the Yellowstone tribe, he went to look up information about fireflies in this world.
There are a lot of them, they are as big as fists, their light is very bright, and their lifespan is longer than that of fireflies in the modern world.
But fireflies are not like yellow light stones. They will only glow after their shells are squeezed, and the glow can last for three months.
Fireflies will glow on their own when they grow up, and they cannot be controlled by humans!
The glowing time is only two months, not to mention that if they are caught, they may die at any time.
Didn’t you see that although the three major tribes lowered the price, they still collected all the yellow light stones they were supposed to collect.
He took out some food from the space warehouse and ate it. After washing up, he opened the window a little.
The moonlight shone in, and two pieces of dark animal skin covered the yellow stone.
The next day, when Meng Yuqing opened the door, she was startled by a dark shadow squatting at the door.
"Xuan! You're squatting here and scaring people again!" Meng Yuqing grabbed Xuan's shoulders and shook them wildly.
Xuan also cooperated with his movements, otherwise Meng Yuqing would not be able to shake him.
After shaking Xuan for a while, Meng Yuqing calmed down. "When did you come back? Why are you squatting here so early in the morning? Have you eaten? Aren't you going to rest?"
"I came back last night. I have rested and eaten." Xuan squatted on the ground and looked up at Meng Yuqing with a smile.
Seeing his look, Meng Yuqing was silent for a moment and looked away. "If you have nothing to do, go and help me pick all the yellow and white flowers, and the other herbs, too. Don't damage the roots. Maybe they will grow back next year. And dig up some more ginger from the ground, too."
"Well, okay, you haven't eaten yet, right? Do you want me to get you something to eat first?" Xuan tugged at the hem of Meng Yuqing's fur coat.
"I have it, you know, I put it there." Snatching the hem from Xuan's hand, Meng Yuqing glared at him.
What’s the matter? He pulled my skirt last time, and now you want to pull it back?
