Living in the Wilderness Becomes Stronger

Chapter 101 On Fire
The thunderstorm came suddenly, and the rain was still heavy.

Xu Yi was a little surprised, he didn't expect the thunderstorm to come as soon as Lu Ke said it.

After taking a shower, the rain continued to fall.

"It's time to eat." Lu Ke brought hot water to the table and poured it into a cup.

"Sit down, the height of this stool is more suitable for you." Xu Yi said, and walked to the table.

If all goes well, he can make another stool today.

After dinner, Lu Ke and Xu Yi packed the grapes into clay pots.

"Xu Yi, don't you need to add anything else, just mash the grapes like this, and then it's ready?" Lu Ke put the grapes into the clay pot, and asked with some doubts.

After all, she has never made wine before, and she doesn't know what the specific steps are.

"Yes, the white substance on the grape skin is the natural fermented substance." Xu Yi explained, and rubbed the grapes with his hands.

"It can't be filled, and some space needs to be reserved on the top, because the fermentation will produce gas." Xu Yi continued.

There are a lot of grape juice in the three pots.

However, there are still a lot of grapes left.

After all, clay pots are limited in size and cannot hold so many grapes.

After all the grapes are crushed, cover the lid and let it ferment on its own.

When the color of the grapes fades, the fermented grape juice can be fermented for the second time.

Normally, it takes a week or two for the first fermentation.

The speed is related to the fermentation material, temperature, and even the utensils.

Normally, the temperature for brewing wine is suitable between 25-32.

Self-brewed wine is prone to methanol exceeding the standard, that is, the temperature is not well controlled, and the grapes are not well fermented at all.Another thing is that edible grapes are not suitable for wine making because their tannin content is relatively low.

Xu Yi uses mountain grapes, which have more tannins and a lot of white substance on the grape skin.In terms of fermentation, there is absolutely no problem.

After finishing the grapes, Xu Yi moved the three pots back into the room.

Then, he took out the basket that contained the rabbit.

There is some smell in the room and we must move out.

It was okay when there was only one rabbit, but now there are 4 more little rabbits, and the smell is a bit strong.

Therefore, it is necessary to enclose a place for farming.

Xu Yi had already planned to fence it next to the toilet to raise rabbits or other animals.

He plans to set up more traps in the woods so that some animals can be caught.

The meat is still fresh and delicious.

"Xu Yi, has the chick hatched yet?" Lu Ke asked while fiddling with thatch pieces.With the stool, she doesn't have to sit on cold stones.

"No movement yet." Xu Yi glanced at it, but didn't touch it with his hand.

"Oh, I thought it hatched." Lu Ke said, she thought Xu Yi took the basket out of the house after the chick hatched.

"No, the smell is a little too strong now, so it's not suitable to keep it in the house. I'll raise it in a place next to the toilet tomorrow." Xu Yi gestured, after all, the place is too small and it's not easy to manage. Sometimes there are too many animals and you have to build them again, so it's better to make them bigger.

Although it takes a little more time and energy now, it can save more trouble if it is done in one go.

Lu Ke nodded, she also felt that the smell in the room was a bit strong.

Fortunately, there are large sheds outside now, so there is no need to worry about the rabbit being drenched in the rain after moving out.

Then, Xu Yi started making stools.

After Lu Ke finished finishing the thatch, he opened the kiln.

"How is it, isn't it broken?" Xu Yi asked casually. He knew that Lu Ke made a squatting pan, and he didn't know if the squatting pan was burned.

"No, everything is fine." Lu Ke replied, although it is not broken, but there may be cracks, so it still needs to be tested with water.

"That's good, I'm still worried that it will be broken directly." After Xu Yi finished speaking, he looked outside.

Rain stopped.

However, there are occasional thunderclaps.

Lu Ke filled the pottery with water, and then came over and took a few stones from the fire, preparing to use them to boil water for bathing.

After one sentence, Xu Yi heard Lu Ke's surprised voice: "Xu Yi, is there a fire over there?"

Xu Yi stood up and took a look.

Far away, there is indeed a fire, and it seems that the fire is not small.

"Yes, it must have been struck by lightning, and it's still far away from us." Xu Yi said without worrying too much.

After all, he had cut down all the nearby trees, and the area was not small. If it really burned down here, he and Lu Ke had time to escape.

In addition, the distance is really far away, and I can't see that there is a fire over there, so I have to take Lu Ke and escape to the seaside.The deep forest fire is not so easy to form, so there is no need to worry too much.

"It shouldn't burn us here, right?" Lu Ke asked while showering his hair.

"No, it's a long way away. If the fire really reaches us, it will probably be tomorrow. Don't worry, the fire has really reached our vicinity. We have time to escape to the seaside." Xu Yi comforted, then turned his head and went to the seaside again. Go back and continue digging the opening for the stool.

After a while, Lu Ke washed up and came out.

She sat by the fire to dry her hair and watched Xu Yi work by the way.

After a while, Lu Ke took the initiative to say: "Xu Yi, I'm going to sleep first, you should come to rest early too."

Her stomach is not feeling well today, and her menstrual period is coming to an end.

"Well, I know, go to sleep." Xu Yi nodded without asking any further questions.

Although, it's only past nine o'clock, which is much earlier than her usual rest time.

He continued making stools without stopping for a moment.

It was after 11 o'clock that he stopped what he was doing.

After glancing at the room, Xu Yi said in his mind: System, check in.

After all, today is the 23rd day they have been in the wilderness, which also means that he has clocked in for another seven days.

What would his seven-day gift bag be?

"Ding, check in for 7 days and get a junior gift package."

Hearing this sound, Xu Yi continued to pick up the dagger and began to dig the last hole.

While digging, I silently said in my mind: System, open the gift bag.

"Ding, get the climbing skills package (beginner)!"

"Ding, get the Archery Skills Gift Pack (Elementary)!"

Climbing skills?
Xu Yi thinks this is pretty good, after all, one needs to climb a tree to pick some fruits.

Impossible, every time you need something from the tree, then cut the tree down, right?
