Chapter 039 Giant Wood Square
Lu Xuan said, "Put on these clothes and wear them underneath your clothes."
The three of them took the biological suit. Lu Qing shook it open and looked at it, wondering, "What's wrong with this suit?"
Lei Yan said, "It looks weird."
Lu Xuan said: "I got it from the immortals."
Lu Qing quickly nudged Lei Yan with her elbow. "What a weird look! Maybe immortals like this style, or maybe this is the style that's popular where immortals live."
Lei Yan could only nod silently, you are right.
[Hahahaha, I can't help but laugh every time I hear the gods say that.]
[I imagined what it would look like for a deity to wear a biological suit. The picture is so beautiful, haha.]
[I feel like my filter for the gods in mythological stories is about to be shattered into pieces.]
Lu Xuan explained: "The important thing is the function. This clothing is called biological clothing. It can regulate the temperature. No matter whether it is cold or hot, it can keep people in a constant temperature state without being afraid of cold or heat."
"So magical!?" The three members of the Lu family were amazed. This was more magical than the space ring... No, it was just as magical!
"I'll change into it now!" Lu Chen couldn't wait to run to the cave with his own clothes.
Lu Qing and Lei Yan hurried to follow.
Worried about dirtying the clothes given by the gods, they changed out of the dirty clothes that were soaked with sweat in the morning, wiped their bodies before putting on the biological suits, and then put on new clothes on the outside.
When they dressed again and went outside, they found that it was not hot at all.
Lu Chen's eyes sparkled, "It's really cool, just like spring!"
"Really! I don't feel hot at all!" Lu Qing said in surprise.
Lei Yan walked to the shade of the tree and stood there for a while, and found that he really didn't sweat at all.
Some villagers noticed their strange behavior and asked them what they were doing.
Soon, the villagers learned about the existence of biological clothing and were amazed again.
Later, when the villagers were working, they kept observing the Lu family. Seeing that they really didn't sweat at all, and then feeling sticky all over their bodies, they were so envious that their eyes turned red.
“That’s great.”
"The Lu family is so lucky." Why don't they have the surname Lu!
Lu Xuan also gave each of Lu Qing and the others a bottle of sunscreen spray, so they wouldn't have to worry about getting sunburned after spraying it.
Even with the shade of the giant trees, the sunlight filtering through the gaps was still scorching. Many women with delicate skin had their cheeks and backs of their hands exposed outside their clothes turned red, and their necks were even more scorching from the sun.
With the biological suits and sunscreen spray, when others couldn't stand the heat, Lu Qing and Lei Yan were still full of energy. Even Lu Chen was more energetic than the other children who were wilting due to the heat.
At dusk, the day's work finally ended.
After a day of hard work, the scenery under the giant tree is completely new.
The forest, which was originally no different from any other place in the mountains, has now become a huge circular square with a giant tree at its center.
The square was surrounded by a two-meter-high wooden fence made of wooden strips to prevent the invasion of wild animals, and the ground was flattened and compacted using rollers made from cut tree trunks.
On the right side of the big cave are two wooden tables that are more than ten meters long and three meters wide, and dozens of wooden benches.
Wooden tables are made from the trunks of felled trees.
Cut a tree trunk of appropriate length and width into two halves vertically with the flat surface facing upwards, and use mortise and tenon joints to embed wooden table legs of appropriate height at the bottom. Put the four halves of the trunk together to make a huge and simple long table.
Wooden stools are even simpler. Cut the tree trunk into round wooden blocks about half a meter high to make a super simple wooden stool.
Of course, I will have to ask Carpenter Ye to make some proper tables, chairs and benches in the future. At the moment, this style is mainly to allow everyone to use tables and chairs in a short period of time.
Not far from the long table were several simple stoves made of huge stone fragments. A little further away was a pile of firewood made from the trees they had cut down in the morning. The firewood from all the trees in the square was piled up like a small mountain, enough for them to use for the whole summer.
Next to the firewood pile is a small poultry pen, which contains domestic chickens that several families brought up the mountain before the earthquake.
Two toilets were built in two remote and sheltered areas of the square according to gender. A deep pit was dug inside, and multiple dry toilets were built on top with wooden boards to prevent people from urinating and defecating anywhere in the woods and stepping on them when going out. At the same time, manure could be collected for later use.
In addition, more than a dozen clotheslines were stretched between the thick branches of the giant trees and the trunks outside the square.
Lu Xuan took out the hundred-meter-long string of lights that he had drawn from the blind box, and wrapped it around the clothesline above his head that looked like octopus tentacles, as well as around the trunk of a giant tree.
When night falls, press the switch of the light string, and the square will instantly light up with twinkling lights, presenting a dreamlike scene.
"Wow--!"
“It’s so beautiful!”
The villagers opened their mouths in shock, their eyes filled with amazement. The children were so excited that they screamed and ran around. Even Lu Chen was not spared.
So dreamy!
The barrage of comments that had never stopped in the live broadcast room paused for a moment.
There are certainly many beautiful sights in the interstellar age, but with the addition of the premise of ancient mountains and forests + ancient people, the atmosphere is just right and the feeling is completely different.
At this moment, not only did Lu Xuan's family not look like they were here to seek refuge, even the villagers of Yunlu Village looked like they were here for a group camping.
The audience in the live broadcast room: I really want to be teleported to the host’s dimension right now! ! !
While waiting for dinner, everyone, who were busy and sweating, went to the stream to wash off. During the whole process, everyone's spirits were very high.
Lu Xuan's amazing efficiency in chopping trees, the convenience of the chainsaw and lawn mower, the magical space ring, the biological clothing, and even the square they built with their own hands, which even they themselves couldn't believe...
The experiences they had in the first half of their lives were not as exciting as today, so how could they not be excited?
In order to celebrate the completion of Giant Tree Square, and perhaps inspired by the Lu family's lunch, a total of four dishes and one soup were prepared in the evening.
Stir-fried bacon with green peppers, braised eggplant, scrambled eggs with green onions, cold cucumber shreds, and a big pot of vegetable and egg soup. The ingredients used were more than double what I had at noon.
Everyone felt distressed but also looked forward to the dishes being served one after another, and couldn't wait to sit down at the newly prepared long table.
About one hundred forty or fifty people sat together, and the scene was quite spectacular.
Of course, it was really noisy. Even if no one was deliberately shouting at the top of their lungs, every word we said was as noisy as in a vegetable market.
And talking did not slow them down at all as they quickly picked up the food with their chopsticks.
Many people felt in their hearts that this was a blessing in disguise for them.
Although we had entered a disaster period, our lives were not miserable and we even ate better than before the earthquake.
As everyone chatted, they naturally started talking about the various magical items that Lu Xuan had taken out as a topic to accompany the meal.
Among them, in addition to the space ring and biological clothing being mentioned most frequently, another thing that caused everyone to discuss was the toilet paper provided by Lu Xuan after he finished making the toilet.
Because he got more than 200 rolls of toilet paper from the blind box today, after the toilet was successfully completed, Lu Xuan contributed 50 of them to the villagers for use.
"When Lu Xuan first told us to use such white and soft paper to replace the toilet paper, I was shocked!"
"That's right! Such good paper, before the catastrophe, would have sold for at least a few hundred coins, or even more. Yet, it's being used to wipe that..."
"At first I was worried that he would squander the gift, but I didn't expect..."
Seeing everyone's exaggerated reactions, Lu Xuan directly gave Li Jing and Zhang Chengming a roll of toilet paper and asked them to try it once.
The result is naturally delicious.
When they came out, both of them had an expression that looked as if they were about to ascend to heaven, which made others unable to help but try it. The result was that they were immediately shocked and slapped in the face.
At first, the audience in the live broadcast room who had never watched Yuangu’s live broadcasts did not understand why the two of them were so excited.
Lu Xuan said meaningfully: "People who have never used toilet paper don't understand the pain of using toilet paper."
The saying that nine out of ten people suffer from hemorrhoids was no joke in ancient times. Before using toilet paper, people might not have felt anything about it and just thought it was normal. But after using it... going to the toilet became a pleasure.
Li Tuo even declared: With toilet paper, I can go to the toilet eight times a day!
Lu Xuan: ...That’s not necessary.
There is another funny thing.
Some fans said that when they first started watching Yuangu’s live broadcast, some people were curious whether toilet chips were really that difficult to use?
The interstellar people, who are very adventurous, actually made a few similar toilet chips themselves and tried them out for a while.
Then, during that period, the proportion of hemorrhoid patients admitted to many hospitals in the Star Alliance was several percentage points higher. After the reason was exposed, it was said that it even became a hot search topic for the year's stupid incidents.
Lu Xuan: It turns out that humans are not immune to confusing behaviors, whether in the modern era or in the interstellar age.
[By the way…even if the toilet paper is good, isn’t it really disgusting to keep talking about the toilet while we’re eating? ?]
I came in thinking I could watch a food show (though it can't be shared), but I didn't expect all they talked about was shit and piss... I'm so drunk.
I actually wish I could smell something, even if it was a bad smell. I'm crying.jpg
An intriguing smile appeared at the corner of Lu Xuan's lips.
After a while, the village chief stood up and spoke, and everyone finally stopped talking in the toilet.
Li Tie said, "The square is almost ready now. Although there are still many details to be worked on, we have finally settled down."
Everyone nodded in agreement.
Seeing with their own eyes a living area planned out by them, many people couldn't help but feel a sense of belonging to this place.
Li Tie said solemnly, "As the saying goes, you live by the mountain. If you want to have a place in this mountain, the most important thing is to be familiar with the surrounding environment, find out what resources we can use nearby, and understand whether there are any wild animals around that may threaten our lives.
I'm thinking of organizing a team to explore the surrounding area tomorrow. It would be great if we could get some prey while familiarizing ourselves with the terrain."
explore!
hunt!
As soon as a few key words came out, many young and strong people became excited.
Li Tuo was the first to raise his hand and shouted, "I, I want to go!"
"I want to go too! Count me in!"
Not long after, more than ten people followed Li Tuo's lead and raised their hands.
Li Tie was very satisfied with their positive attitude. He turned to Lu Xuan and said, "Xuan, how about you lead the team? You must have been around the area when you discovered the cave, so you must be more familiar with it than the others."
After that, he turned to Wu Cheng and said, "My dear relative, you are very experienced. I'll trouble you to take care of these little ones when the time comes."
Lu Xuan nodded to indicate that it was no problem, and Wu Cheng also felt obliged to do so.
Li Tie confirmed the number of people who signed up for the exploration team. About one-third of them were young and strong. After screening out a few people who were obviously not suitable for just joining in the fun, fifteen people were finally left.
Of course, you can't explore the deep mountains empty-handed. The machetes, chainsaws and other tools used during the day were returned to Lu Xuan after the work was done. At this time, Li Tie borrowed a dozen machetes from him.
Wu Cheng and his son Wu Yang were more comfortable using their own bows and arrows, so they did not borrow machetes.
Now that they had weapons, a dozen people began to discuss whether they should bring some baskets so that they could pick up other resources when they encountered them.
Yesterday, they found a lot of wild vegetables and fruits on the way up the mountain. In order to save time, they didn't pick many. They only picked some quickly when they happened to find some nearby during breaks.
But tomorrow we are going to explore, so if we come across useful resources, why not pick them?
The more they talked, the more they looked forward to the mountain adventure, and the audience in the live broadcast room also had high expectations for tomorrow's live broadcast.
