Chapter 195 Tiger Skin Cloak



So he wanted to ask what the milk group wanted to do after returning to society.

She's not old enough to start school yet, so there's no rush.

Li Sheng: "What does Milk Ball want to do?"

The little one snuggled into his father's arms and said, "I want to go on an adventure with Daddy, just like this. Didn't Daddy say that we'll continue to participate in the competition? Milkball wants to go on an adventure with Daddy."

Li Sheng fell silent.

Adventure is certainly fun, but it's too dangerous for the healing team. Not only for the healing team, but it's also dangerous for him. He's escaped death countless times.

But seeing the longing look in the baby's eyes, he smiled and said, "Okay."

Only a useless man would extinguish his daughter's dreams because of danger. If Naituan really wants to follow him, then he will become stronger, strong enough to protect her no matter what danger they encounter.

"But Naituan must be obedient and not do such dangerous things. Daddy understands and supports our Naituan. Naituan should also understand Daddy. If you are in danger, Daddy will be very scared. Daddy is afraid that when he sees Mommy in the future, Mommy will be angry."

Such a heartwarming moment greatly improved the efficiency of communication. The little girl did not shy away from her father for fear of being scolded, but raised her little face and spoke earnestly.

“I know. I know everything my father told me. I know that Zisu is not far from our shelter, which is why I went there. Besides, Da Meizi and Cuihua are there. Even if they can’t protect me in case of danger, they can still buy me enough time to get back to the shelter.”

Such a meticulous mind at such a young age.

Li Sheng patted the little one's head and smiled as he gently pecked the boy's forehead: "Think twice before you act. It won't be allowed next time. Only if you stay safely by Daddy's side can Daddy get better faster."

The little girl reached out and hugged Li Sheng's waist, tilting her head back and giving him a sweet smile: "I will protect Daddy."

...

After eating the medicinal food, I sweated all over. Although my head was still throbbing, I felt a little better. These skins still need to be treated.

Holding a bamboo knife, patiently scrape away the remaining fat bit by bit, then mix snow with the fat and rub it continuously to make the skin more resilient and softer.

Although it can't turn into a cloak so quickly, it's still quite nice to use as a cover to sleep at night.

It's cold outside but warm inside. The house is small but has excellent insulation, so heat doesn't easily dissipate. Also, the diversity of life inside helps raise the temperature by having everyone huddle together.

Fortunately, the young lady, Cuihua, and the boys all have some manners and will go out on their own to use the designated sandpit to relieve themselves.

When his illness was at its worst, he slept for a whole day, waking up several times in a daze. He would fiddle with the leather and then fall asleep again. It wasn't until a week later that he began to show signs of improvement.

My head wasn't so foggy anymore, and the soreness in my body had lessened a bit. The leather was almost ready; Li Sheng had already cut it to the appropriate size and shape with an axe, and all that was left was to sew it.

However, the tiger's hide is very tough, so using bone needles directly won't work.

However, this wasn't the only method. Li Sheng took out an arrow, placed the tip against the edge of the animal hide that needed to be sewn, and used his other hand to smash it with a stone, which made a hole about the size of a little finger.

When the time comes, you just need to thread a thin string through it, just like tying shoelaces.

This cloak isn't the kind you see draped over your back in TV dramas; the front is sewn up, so you have to put it over your head to get in, and there are two holes on each side for your arms to pass through.

The little dumpling's cloak reached up to her calves, covering her completely when she sat down. She also had a pair of socks inside her feet to keep her warm.

There was also a small hat on her head. Li Sheng was afraid that Naituan's hands would get cold, so he painstakingly sewed on two sleeves. Of course, they weren't as close to the body as her usual clothes, but they were very warm. Naituan looked extremely cute in this tiger-skin cloak.

On the contrary, Li Sheng's own cloak was extremely perfunctory, with much wider stitches, barely covering his buttocks, but it was still quite warm, and he could withstand it even outside.

It's quite comfortable to stay in the shelter, the only downside is that the water supply to the shelter was cut off by the fire, and it will take a lot of effort to reconnect it.

Fortunately, there was still some water stored, which could last for a few days, but it was not a long-term solution.

So there were many more containers in the yard, filled with water from melted snow. After the water settled, it could be boiled and drunk.

There's no immediate problem with drinking water, and since I'm currently ill, there's no rush to reconnect the water supply.

It took another week for him to fully recover from his illness. He had no other discomfort, but he was still somewhat weak after recovering from a serious illness.

For the past two weeks, we've been living hand to mouth, and all we have left is half a clay pot of tiger meat. The rate at which we've consumed this food is truly astonishing.

The older sister has developed a "spare tire" around her belly from all the food she's eaten, and Cuihua and the little ones are also quite chubby. This can't go on like this.

He had to take turns leading Cuihua's family and his younger sister out for exercise.

Li Sheng thought of the crocodile pond where he was chased by the tiger before. Why not take Cuihua and the children there to broaden their horizons? Besides, they're tired of eating tiger meat for so long and want to try something new.

Without further ado, we got dressed, packed our gear, gave instructions to the milk team, and set off.

Although the weather was terribly gloomy and there were still some patches of snow that hadn't melted, it didn't dampen his spirits to go out. He had been cooped up indoors for half a month and couldn't stand it anymore.

Cuihua was reluctant to go, but that didn't stop him. He simply put the four children in a basket on his back and set off. Cuihua had no choice but to go.

As expected, maternal love is great. Halfway there, Li Sheng put the four little ones down, and Cuihua didn't take them back with her. She followed behind Li Sheng.

In his basket was a large piece of thawed tiger meat, which was used for crocodile fishing.

Although it's been terribly cold for the past two weeks, the temperature has risen quickly in the last couple of days, and it's probably around 10 degrees Celsius now. Besides, he's wearing a tiger skin, so he's not cold walking around outside.

Although he wasn't afraid of the cold, crocodiles are indeed afraid of the cold. The weather had just warmed up these past two days, and he didn't know what the crocodiles were like, but they should be easier to catch.

Once inside the forest, there was no snow at all. When we reached the crocodile pool, the crocodiles were all listlessly lurking.

Li Sheng did not intend to take any risks, after all, he had just recovered from a serious illness and his left hand was still broken, and it would take a hundred days to recover from the injury.

They took out the thawed tiger meat, tied it very tightly, and attached it to a very thick and long rope.

Six or seven meters away from the crocodile pool, Li threw the meat near the pool, waiting for the crocodiles to take the bait.
