prehistoric modern man

Early the next morning, Ji Chi took enough shrubs and leaves, and took a raft with the imam to the forest to hunt.

Soon after the two landed, they caught a four-horned deer and two small herbivores.

Animals like this type are very weak in aggressiveness, and they will only run away when encountering troubles. Only when two people attack on both sides, and they have bows and arrows, can they be easily caught.

There seems to be a lot of animals in this forest, maybe there are no tribes living here, and it's better not to.

Ji Chi then found a few places where the surrounding grass had obviously been trampled on, dug a hole and spread the grass, put the wood blocks smeared with shrub leaves on it, turned around a few more times, and caught a few prey before returning to the island .

It was getting late, the two ate some meat, packed up all the rest, cut them into pieces and put them in the wooden frame made yesterday, and stretched them between the two big trees by the river with rattan. Clothesline, hang up all the cleaned furs.

The wooden frame is also hung on the side by rattan to prevent it from being eaten by any animal that appears suddenly.

After working all day, Ji Chi didn't feel tired until he lay down.

Before falling asleep he kept thinking about building the house.

According to the current situation, they can only mix soil and wood together, or use all wood. The soil can be dug, but the tree cannot be cut. Although his jackknife has never left his body, but to cut those thick trees, It's funny to think about it.

He has to find a way.

There is no usable knife, let alone an axe, but I can find some sharper stones from the river and sharpen them, but it is still too much work.

Can only use fire.

In the next few days, he found a tall tree with a straight body, thick body and suitable height from the forest on the island. He dug a long depression on both sides of the root with a jackknife, put in dry grass, and set it on fire.

Although there was no dry grass around that could easily catch fire, Ji Chi still paid close attention to not letting the fire spread to other places.

When it was almost burning, he raised his leg and kicked it, and with a "boom", the thick tree fell down immediately, making the branches and leaves rattle under the weight.

The imam, who was originally standing behind the tree, quickly jumped aside, a gleam of light flashed in his eyes.

The tree fell down, but it still had to be moved. Although the distance was not far, the tree was too thick and heavy, and it took some effort.

So, the two would move a few trees every day when they came back from hunting, little by little, and when they had moved enough, a month had passed.

They stored more and more dried meat and dried fruits, and the number of long-haired rabbits they had brought back had changed from a few to a dozen, and five or six of them were pregnant.

As long as Ji Chi has time, he will feed them all kinds of grass leaves in the forest, and classify them as poisonous or non-toxic according to their reactions.

As long as these long-haired rabbits are plants, no matter what they are, they will eat them, and ferns are their favorite food.

As for the traps he dug in the forest, they have also increased to a certain number, plus some simple noose traps, and they hardly need to hunt by themselves when they go out every day.

Next, the most important thing is to dig the trench and move the soil.

The wild fruits he picked recently are more ripe than before, and the shells of the nuts are getting harder and harder. The weather is changing, and perhaps autumn is not far away.

He had already chosen the location to build the house, 30 meters away from the river. The ground is flat and there are no trees. After clearing the flowers and plants, it is an open space of about [-] square meters.

It took the two of them seven days to dig a half-meter-deep trench and began to transport soil from the forest, because Ji Chi found that the soil there was more sticky than that on the island.

He spent a day building several rafts, transporting soil and tying canes, and each of them sat on a raft, paddling and pulling.

Back and forth, and half a month passed, and finally everything was ready.

The imam didn't understand anything, and he didn't ask any questions. He just followed what he did.

Compared with before, the tacit understanding between the two is getting better and better.

After a day of rest, the two started building the house.

Although the soil they transported was highly viscous, Ji Chi still added some hay when mixing the mud to increase its firmness.

Reconciling the mud, it took them three days to just backfill the gutter.

The next step is to build the wall up.

The width of the wall is about forty centimeters, and it is a bit thick. It can hold a piece of wood. It is inconvenient to cut the wood, so we can only put the whole piece on it, and build it up with the reconciled mud.

At [-] centimeters, Ji Chi put a row of logs on the wall, and then spread mud on it to smooth the surface to prevent the ground from getting damp.

There are a total of six walls, three rooms, two small windows and one door. It took them a long time to build it, and the summer was over by the time the roof was left unpaved.

I don't know when the cold wind started to blow on the island. Ji Chi trapped dozens of long-haired rabbits in a wooden fence. When the wind blew, the white hairs flew up, which was very majestic.

Ji Chi stood in front of the house wearing a hastily mended animal fur coat, with a tired look and a trace of satisfaction, he didn't move for a long time.

The slightest autumn wind poured into the neck from the neckline, bringing a burst of chill, he breathed on his hands, and continued to work.

After drying for half a month, the damp smell in the room was gone, and the walls were dry. The two of them spent a few more days building the roof, and hurriedly moved in the next day.

It was okay outside during the day, but at night, Ji Chi was so cold that he couldn't sleep well all night.

Well now, they finally have a house.

It was a rare occasion for the imam to be happy, and kept running back and forth in the room.

At night, the two of them ate something hastily, put dry firewood into the earthen kang, blocked the opening of the kang with stones, closed the doors and windows, and got into bed.

Although there are two rooms, in order to save firewood, they still sleep in one room.

Ji Chi was lying with his back to the imam, he was so sleepy that he couldn't open his eyes but couldn't sleep.

I don't know how late I stayed up until I went to bed, and when I woke up the next day, it was already bright.

When he got dressed and went out, the imam took off his leather boots and was standing barefoot in the cold water fishing.

Ji Chi frowned and walked over to pull him out: "Don't go into the water to catch fish again."

The imam put on the leather boots and looked at him: "Why?"

"The water is cold."

"It's not cold." The imam's voice was a little soft.

Ji Chi glanced at him, turned around and went into the room to get his bow and arrow: "Let's go."

The imam stood for a while and followed him.

The water of the lake was very cool, and it made a chill around the raft, which meant that winter was coming here.

They went around and looked at all the traps, and finally led two wild goats with two horns facing the sky, and carried a big cat that they killed on the spot and several dead small ones. The animals have returned to the island.

Ji Chi asked the imam to tie the goats to a tree, and built a bigger fence next to the long-haired rabbit fence, and shut in the two honest goats.

The imam was picking up the other animals he had brought, and Ji Chi picked some long and thick tree trunks to surround the house and two fences, and connected each tree trunk with several vines to form a yard.

At this time, the Imam also finished cleaning up.

Ji Chi moved the two stone pots and several stone bowls outside into the house, put them on the earthen stove that had been made earlier, added water, and lit a fire underneath.

This is what he and the imam dug from the clay by the lake after searching for a long time.

Ji Chi put several bowls on the stone table next to him, brought some dried fruits, and sat in front of the table to eat them as snacks.

The imam walked in with a large wooden frame, poured some of the packed meat into the pot, and put the rest in the room on the left.

After eating, the sky was getting dark, and the two closed the doors and windows and sat on the warm and soft fur, mending clothes by the faint firelight.

The imam couldn't sew, so he lay beside Ji Chi's legs, watching quietly with his head on his pillow, and it was rare for him to sit stiffly on the side with his back straight.

His hair has grown, because it is often cut in summer, the hair has become softer, it is light brown under the firelight, and it is softly attached to his cheeks, making him look much more docile.

When Ji Chi finished a suit of clothes, the imam was already asleep, and he didn't move during the whole process.

Ji Chi covered him with a quilt, quietly extinguished the fire, and got into his own bed.

It was windy outside, and the whistling wind came from far to near, and finally came to the window, knocked on the wooden window a few times, and returned to silence for a while.

Ji Chi opened his eyes several times, and finally fell into a deep sleep.

Silent all night.

The next day, the two went out to check the trap as usual, and they would not let go of the prey that came to them. They shot it in the vitals with an arrow, and carried it back to the island with the prey in the trap. It was alive and grazing. animals, they would lock them up with the goats and feed them regularly with forest grass.

There are more and more long-haired rabbits, maybe because dozens of them are locked together, half of them are already pregnant.

The weather is getting colder and colder, and autumn is about to pass, the wind blows more recklessly, and the whole island is covered with thin white velvet flowers, and then blows to the lake, looking at it from the forest, it gives people a sense of beauty isolated from the world .

Ji Chi wiped off the velvet sticking to his mouth, tightened his clothes, and enlarged the long-haired rabbit's fence again,

There was commotion in the goat pen. Ji Chi stopped and looked over. The only alpaca in it stretched its neck and was running in circles.

Ji Chi just glanced at it and put it aside. He entered the room, sat down at the table, picked up the broth handed by the imam, and drank it slowly.

At night, the turmoil in the sheep pen became even bigger, accompanied by the cry of goats. Ji Chi put down the clothes that were being stitched twice in doubt, and walked out.

The imam had already come out, and was staring at the long-necked alpaca pressing a goat motionlessly, breeding.
