In the days of surviving in the fairy forest

After lunch, the green caterpillar disappeared in a blink of an eye. After discussing with Ali for a while, Rick decided to go to the river not far away to collect some clay for pottery.

The fox's paws are too small, and it leaks all the way to hold it. When we return to the tree house, only a little bit of soil on the tip of the claw is still usable.In order to collect more clay before, Rick had to roll the clay into a ball like a snowball, and pushed it all the way back to the tree house, receiving curious eyes from countless birds on the way.

However, they have gained experience this time, and collecting them is not as difficult as before. Besides, there were a few gourd baboons who came to join in the fun after hunting and were captured by Rick as young men. There were tall mounds of clay.

"Today we went hunting in the wild boar forest in Xishan," the gourd baboon excitedly gestured to Rick, "take the mace you modified earlier, the military commander, and hit the top of the wild boar's head, and they will faint! This time we Not one was hurt, not one!"

Rick tilted his head and smiled, and he didn't take credit for accepting the wild boar legs carried by the gourd baboons - he just mentioned casually at the time, who knew that these gourd baboons were so dexterous that they could actually embed wooden spines in wooden sticks, making Into a powerful mace.

"Come and do me a favor!" Thinking of the enviable claws of the gourd baboons, Rick swung his tail, went back to the tree hole, and took out the caterpillar silk at the bottom of the box.

The gourd baboons grabbed the two ends of the caterpillar silk respectively, and under Rick's command, they cut straight towards the thick tree.The caterpillar silk cut the tree as easily as a knife into tofu.

"This silk thread is too strong! It's even stronger than wood!" the gourd baboon exclaimed.

They did the same thing, cutting around the trunk, cutting out seven or eight flat wooden boards, and polishing them with round stones for a while to make a smooth and smooth plane.

Rick, who has played with many building blocks, knows the splicing method of the mortise and tenon structure.He instructed the gourd baboon to use a stone knife to carve a dent in the middle of the board to match the bulge of another board. After several splicing, the prototype of a wooden house was built.

Rick put the ceramic hut specially made for green caterpillars into the wooden room, and found green caterpillars with strong sticky silk to stick the bottom of the hut to the wooden room, and stringed the wooden windows and wooden doors made by gourd baboons on the wooden house. In the pottery house.

This small wooden house is exquisite and chic, with wooden windows and wooden doors that can be opened. The smooth wooden base outside is like an elegant courtyard, and there are thick wooden boards above to block it, so that no matter it is windy or rainy, it will not blow into the house.

"Look so good!" The squirrel widened its eyes enviously, wanting Rick to make one for himself, and thinking about the soft fox quilt when sleeping at night, regretfully dropped its tail and deflated its mouth.

Hmph, so what if you have a beautiful little house, can you sleep on a fox pillow!

……

The part that needs the help of the gourd baboons has been completed, and the rest of the arrangement can be done by himself. Rick put the wooden house back into the tree hole for the time being, and watched the getting late sky. He cooked a pot of broth in a clay pot to reward the busy work The gourd baboons all afternoon.

The pot used to cook the soup is based on the food intake of foxes and squirrels, which is not too much. In addition, Rick and Ali also took out a lot of dried meat and fruits to ensure that the gourd baboons can eat enough .

They each served a bowl of broth with banana leaves. The gourd baboons sniffed it curiously and poured the broth into their mouths. They were instantly captivated by this novel and delicious food.

"It's so delicious!" One of the gourd baboons blinked at Rick with tears in his eyes, "Military teacher, how do we do this?"

Sun-dried raisins and smoked bacon, the flames that used to be feared and dreaded have now become the most precious possessions of gourd baboons.Seeing that the broth was also cooked with flames and a strangely shaped ugly thing, the taste was both delicious and delicious, and the gourd baboons stared round.

Rick pondered for a moment: "This is quite troublesome. It will take a day and a night to burn with flames. If you want, just get some mud like the one you just collected, add water to make a shape similar to this clay pot, and I will Burn it for you."

The gourd baboons nodded quickly. After dinner, they wiped their mouths and said goodbye to the fox and squirrel. They squeezed a small handful of clay in front of the tree hole and left quickly.

Rick and Ali also packed their things and returned to the tree hole.

"Winter will soon be here," Ali stretched her waist, happily turning around in the sweet smell of dried meat, pine nuts and fruits in a tree hole, not forgetting to remind Rick, "Even if you are as strong as a gourd Baboons, you can’t leave your place of residence too far in winter, we have to burn pottery for the gourd baboons next autumn.”

Rick nodded: "The Gourd Baboon King must have thought of this. It doesn't matter, it is difficult to start a fire in winter, even if they have pottery, it is useless."

Of course, correspondingly, if the gourd baboons can drink hot soup in the cold winter, the number of gourd baboons that are frozen to death every year will definitely drop significantly.

It's just that they followed Rick's advice and left rabbit skins, wild boar skins, and other miscellaneous animal skins to cover their bodies to keep warm, and the food full of tree holes saved them from going out in the cold. Should be a good winter.

The fox and the squirrel discussed for a while, and then gradually turned their attention to the cabin built for the green caterpillar.

"How about putting a layer of rabbit fur in the clay pot, piled some fresh leaves outside, and hanging some feathers on the window?" Rick said while digging out his and the squirrel's treasures, and Ali went into the cabin to carefully Paved.

"Using rabbit fur as bedding is still a bit rough for green caterpillars," Rick said regretfully, "it would be more comfortable with tiger fur."

Ali laughed loudly: "Rick! You are floating! You even thought of catching a tiger!"

Rick scratched his ears, and felt that he was a little whimsical, so he didn't talk anymore, but put the finished log cabin aside, and prepared to give it to him the next time he saw the fat caterpillar, and then discussed with the squirrel about going to it tomorrow. The place.

Because of the busy work of weaving and clay pots, and the ptarmigan group Zhatui living not far from the tree hole, they never traveled far after returning from the volcanic forest.It will be winter in a few days, and if they don't go out now, they will stay in the tree hole for several months.

"I don't know when it will snow, and I can't leave too far away." Ali said seriously, mercilessly suppressing Rick's eager heart, shaking his big tail, hesitating for a moment, and he was a little ready to move:

"But we can indeed go out and have a look. Didn't the gourd baboons say that they saw the moon fruit in the wild boar forest in Xishan today? We can look for it."

"Moon fruit? What's that?" Rick interrupted, rubbing the paw pads awkwardly, too busy measuring the width of the wood cut to pay any attention to what the gourd baboons were saying.

"Jingyue fruit is a small fruit that grows in Jingyue Lake," the squirrel replied. "It is said that if you soak in Jingyue Lake and eat Jingyue fruit, you will be blessed by the moon goddess!"

"Moon goddess?" Rick was stunned for a moment.

Are there still animals here that believe in gods?

"Yes!" The squirrel was extremely confident, "With the blessing of the Moon Goddess, even without the moon's illumination at night, you can still see as clearly as in the daytime!"

Rick nodded.

Of course he didn't believe the Moon Goddess's rhetoric, but the saying "can make people see the dark fruit clearly" sounds too reliable.

After all, it is a fantasy land that even has Sandy Fruit, so what is so special about Jingyue Fruit?

"Then let's go tomorrow!" Seeing that Rick finally nodded in agreement, the squirrel said cheerfully, "I'm going to pack my backpack now!"

Rick was lying on the ground, his green grape-like eyeballs following the squirrel's movements, in a trance, he fell asleep.

When he woke up again, it was already the morning of the second day, and there was a knocking sound at the door of the tree house, as if an animal was knocking on the door.

Rick rubbed his eyes vigorously, barely regained consciousness, picked up the bedridden squirrel and threw it on top of his head, ran over and peeked at who was outside the tree house through the cracks in the stone.

The green caterpillar is lying cutely at the door, with an innocent and lovely smile on its chubby face.

"You're here!" Rick hurriedly opened the door, welcomed him in, and pushed out the cabin that was made for him, "It's just right, come and see if this house fits you!"

Looking at the luxurious wooden house in front of him and the beautiful and practical clay pot hut inside, the green caterpillar blinked and blinked again, as if he didn't quite believe what he saw.

He couldn't forget the delicious chicken soup yesterday, so the green caterpillar who came to the door to eat early in the morning had the cheek to never expect the fox and squirrel to give him such a big surprise.

Although this little house is not hung on the treetops as he said, but other than that, there are really no shortcomings!

Can't wait to climb into the wooden house, swayed back and forth, and rolled in the safe and spacious rabbit plush in the clay pot, the fat green worm made a decision in an instant - he will live here from now on!

"It's just that the rabbit fur is a bit rough," Fat Qingchong thought about it, and blurted out unconsciously, "If it is replaced with tiger fur, it will definitely be more comfortable!"

"Why did you say you want to use tiger skin?" A Li didn't know whether to laugh or cry, "You and Rick are thinking too far! How could we beat a tiger! Even the most powerful one of your green caterpillars, it doesn't matter. Can beat a tiger!"

Fat caterpillar: "..."

He wisely shut up.

Confirming that the green caterpillar likes this wooden house, Rick picked up the hook of the wooden house, climbed up to the top of the tree in twos and twos, and lowered his head to confirm the location with the green caterpillar: "Is it okay to hang it here?"

It can really hang on the top of a tree!Fat caterpillar looked at Rick with changing gazes. After being amazed, he couldn't help but feel a little enthusiastic: "It's ok! Teacher Rick, you can just hang it on the top of the tree. You don't need to reinforce it. I will spin the silk to fix it by myself." good!"

This giant tree with a huge tree hole is the thickest tree in the vicinity. Living here, not only has a great view, but also can eat at any time.The fat caterpillar was very satisfied.

Rick installed the small wooden house firmly, and jumped under the tree lightly: "Okay, you go and have a look, Ali and I will go first, and the wild boar forest in Xishan has a long way to go."

"Wait, are you going to the wild boar forest?" Fat Qingchong was taken aback, interrupted him quickly, and asked in disbelief, "Are you going to kill yourself?"
