Chapter 182: Looking at the Eggs with Despair
I don’t know whether he was fooled by Askan or Josh was out of his mind.
Anyway, this huge egg was left in the end.
Qiao Xi looked at the huge egg in the kitchen and the big-tailed yak outside the window, wondering how he was going to hatch this thing.
Askan didn't explain anything, he just said that he would come out on his own as long as he was put in a warm place.
There was no choice but for Josh to move it to the kitchen, which was the warmest place in the whole house.
Josh put the eggs in a large basin with a warm blanket, and then wrapped the eggs with a thick blanket. That should be fine.
After all, there is no monster on the farm that can hatch such a big bird egg.
Josh tried to ask for help from the brown-headed vulture, but was scared away by its shocked look. Well, without the wings, the brown vulture is about the same size as this egg.
It can’t be hatched. It can’t be hatched at all.
Let's just leave it like this for now. Since Askan said not to worry about it, I'll just ignore it.
Looking at the big basin containing the giant egg, Josh suddenly remembered that the lop-eared wolf he brought back two days ago did not have its own hut yet.
Josh hurried out and found the two little guys sleeping huddled together in the cowshed.
"Woof" The lop-eared wolf who was woken up could not open his eyes.
"Drop-eared wolves, don't go to sleep yet. Come with me and choose a place. I will build you a dog den, not a wolf den."
Upon hearing this, the two little wolves tried hard to open their eyes and staggered out following Josh. Who doesn't want to have a nest of their own?
"You two can choose whether to live together or separately?" Josh asked.
"Woof~" Let's go together~
"Okay, I'll listen to you and choose a location."
They are called wolves, but they really look like dogs. Looking at these two lop-eared wolves sniffing around, Josh thought it would be okay to change their names to lop-eared dogs.
Their big ears can provide them with power when running, allowing them to run faster than ordinary wolves or dogs.
"Woo woo~"Here here.
After choosing a spot, they stopped there and whined, signaling Josh.
This location, well, Josh took a look and thought it was pretty good.
In the corner of the yard, there is a hole that was dug by a burrowing pig or a burrowing rat while playing. Qiao Xi suspected that they chose this place because they were attracted by this dog hole.
As soon as she nodded, the two stupid wolves started digging the dog hole.
Well, since this place has been chosen, Josh will think carefully about how to build a puppy house for them.
I have consulted Aunt Daisy before about how to process the jumping wool into thick blankets, mats and the like. The answer I got was that professional textile equipment is needed, and the success rate of relying solely on the woolly spider is almost zero.
After hearing this, Josh gave up processing the little bit of cashmere he had left and handed over all the stock to Aunt Daisy.
Although she left in a hurry this time, she promised Josh that she would use the wool on hand to make some blankets, clothes, etc. for her, and then send them to her when the time comes.
It has been several days. When the stuff arrives, I will find some suitable blankets to make a nest for the lop-eared wolf.
Now she has to find a way to build the prototype first.
It was early spring when Qiao Xi came here, and the weather was still a bit cold. He guessed that the winter would be difficult.
The wolf den needs to be covered thickly, otherwise it won’t be able to keep out the cold wind.
There were some old bricks left over from the renovation in the corner of the warehouse. Josh smeared some sand, lime and clay on them and built a square nest for them.
It’s just like building blocks, but it looks easy but is difficult to build.
It was a small place that took her most of the day to clean. Qiao Xi took a deep breath and brushed the dust off her hands.
"Don't go in yet. Wait until it's dry before going in."
The two little wolves nodded obediently. They were looking forward to their den and were afraid of knocking it down accidentally, so they didn't dare to get close.
It was not enough to just build the house. Josh made a roof for the nest out of waterproof oiled wood boards and nailed a layer of insulation along three walls of the nest.
It is a tree called self-heating wood. It is easy to spontaneously combust in summer, but it can keep warm in winter. It is the first choice for many small monsters to build nests.
But it is poisonous, and when winter comes, many of the monsters that use it to build nests will die. Josh used chopped wood boards, which have little toxicity and are only on the outer layer, so there is no problem.
Even after being cut down, the wood of self-heating trees can still absorb the heat of the midday sun and generate heat at night.
This knowledge was taught to her by Goben before, and the wood was what was left over from that time.
He took away all the large usable wood and left these small wooden boards, which are just right for use today.
Wait for it to dry, and then you can get a blanket to use as a cushion for their nest.
"You'll have to stay with the big-tailed yaks for the next two days," Qiao Xi told them.
The two little ones nodded. Big Cow and the others also liked them and took good care of them.
They just don't like the naughty little lambs, but they keep all these words in their hearts. How dare the outside wolf to talk to the sheep at home?
The lop-eared wolves were still a little reluctant to let go, so Josh stroked them a few times and then let them play on their own.
I changed and put away my dirty clothes, and before I knew it, it was dark.
I was just about to light a fire to cook when I heard the sound of Little Stars outside.
Qiao Xi hurried out to see what bad thing he had done.
As soon as I walked out of the yard, I saw Xiao Xingxing coming over with a furry unidentified object in her arms.
It's an unlucky day today. Why are people sending Warcraft to my house one after another?
"Hulu~" Qiao Xi, look, I picked up a little bear, and I also have my own little bear!
Stupid thing, if you pick up the bear cub, it's yours, Josh hit it hard on the head.
"Ah~" Little Xingxing held his head and screamed (pretending), and as soon as he let go, the little guy slipped off his belly.
Qiao Xi quickly caught it and took a closer look. What a bear cub! It was a creature that looked like a red panda, with red hair and a round face.
"Hiss." Qiao Xi looked down and saw a long wound covered with blood scabs, which looked somewhat hideous.
"Little Star, where did you pick it up from? It has a big wound."
Little Star scratched his head: "Snoo~" Under the tree, stupid bear fell down.
I see. The wound looks like it was scratched by a sharp branch. Little Star doesn't bully the weak. It couldn't have done it.
Just in time to find a wounded person, Qiao Xi handed the red panda to Xiao Xingxing and said, "Hold it first. Wait for me."
He ran in and took out the bandage that had been made yesterday, gently cleaned the impurities on the wound, and then Josh wrapped it with a roll of bandage.
After falling from the tree, it might have internal injuries and a concussion, so Josh didn't dare to touch it again.
Carefully put the little star aside and wait for it to wake up.
