When he came to the place where the branch cloak was hidden, Zhao Ji took out the branch cloak from the hidden bushes. Many bush leaves had fallen on it. Climbed some small spiders, Zhao Ji drove them away with a branch, and now there is no problem.
Zhao Ji then went to the south of the swamp, where the tree path he had laid before was still in place. Zhao Ji walked through it, and found that most of the trees and trails were fine, except for a few places where moss grew, and it felt very slippery when stepped on. If it was during a battle, this would be a big problem.
Zhao Ji carefully scraped off all the moss with a dagger, so that it would be no problem to leave.
The small island used for hunting hasn't changed much, it's only been a few days, and the plants haven't grown much yet.
The next step is to prepare for some lighting. He will use the four small islands in the swamp tonight. He needs about thirteen torches and a fire pile. There are three torches for each island, and he takes another one with him, and the fire pile should be placed at the edge of the swamp to show Zhao Ji the direction.
Back at the camp, the shepherd Weltz is taking his two little assistants to record the plants around the camp. Tutugo carefully digs out the plants that need to be recorded from the ground, Irina uses a small brush to brush off the soil from the roots of the plants, and Wiltz holds a small notebook and ink pen Record the plant information he observed carefully.
Zhao Ji didn't bother the three of them, which is actually the best. The two parties do not disturb each other or interfere with each other's work.
Zhao Ji took an ax and a rope, and walked further south of the camp.
-----------------
This is a sparse forest, and Zhao Ji found that the forests near Kendall City are all like this. The sparse woods are neither more scattered nor denser. Sunlight can pass directly through the canopy overhead and directly onto the ground, which is also densely covered with shrubs.
There is no grass under the shrubs, and all the sunlight and nutrients are taken away by the well-grown shrubs. Even if the survival ability is as strong as weeds, it cannot survive.
Zhao Ji didn't go further into the woods, but just picked a suitable tree at the outermost edge of the woods. Swinging the ax, he quickly felled the tree. Zhao Ji felt that if he did not go hunting in the future, it would be appropriate for him to go logging. Of course, it will definitely not be here in Kendall County. There is a mature logging chamber here, and the logging of stragglers is simply no match for the opponent.
Zhao Ji did not touch the trunk of the felled tree, but just chopped off the big branches of the tree with an axe.
The old method was to tie the big branches to be moved with ropes, and Zhao Ji dragged all the big branches he picked back to the camp.
Seeing Kiel's return, Tutugo and Irina, who were busy observing the plants, ran outside the camp and watched Kiel's work curiously. Pastor Wiltz is sorting out the text he just recorded, and he also needs to mark the color symbols on the plant sketches drawn in the notebook. After returning to the church, he has to add color ink to the drawn plants. Color it.
Zhao Ji used an ax to split the big branches into several sections one meter long, picked out the ones with appropriate thickness, and carefully split the thick end of the big branches out of the cross opening with the axe. Insert the slender branches horizontally one by one, so that it roughly looks like a torch.
Zhao Ji then filled the space inside the torch with leaves from the branches. Finally, some flammable bushes and weeds could be added to the top of the torch. In this way, a torch was completed.
For the bottom end of the torch, Zhao Ji used a dagger to cut it into spikes, which is convenient for fixing the torch to the ground.
Zhao Ji is already very proficient in this work, and it took only a short moment to make a torch. Tutuge and Irina clapped their hands happily after watching, asking Keir to make more.
Zhao Ji shook his head, there was nothing he could do with these two children. Although Zhao Ji's body was not a few years older than the two of them, the soul in his body was like a young man in his twenties.
Seeing Tutugo and Irina yelling outside the camp, Weltz shepherd was very helpless. He stared at the two little assistants and apologized loudly to Zhao Ji: "I'm sorry, Warrior Kiel. This The two guys are not usually like this. In fact, they are very good children. It may be because they are too excited to go to the wild for the first time. But, when I go back tomorrow, I will let the two of them transcribe Church literature, to press this overexcited heart."
"No, no, I don't." Tutugo hopped around to defend, and Irina also turned her hands away, lowered her head, and said in a low voice: "Irina is very obedient, and she doesn't want to copy documents. "
Zhao Ji smiled and shrugged, expressing that he didn't care about the two of them making a fuss. "Actually, this is pretty good. If there is no their voice in this field, it will feel too quiet. I like to make a lot of noise."
After hearing what Kiel said, Tutuge and Irina wanted to have another happy fight, but they were stopped by a coughing sound from Wiltz's shepherd.
"I still like to be quiet, especially when I am sorting out the manuscript. You two, stop watching and go up to help the warrior of Kiel." After speaking, the shepherd of Weltz sat cross-legged again On the quilt, I organize my manuscripts of notes on wild swamp plants.
"Hey, okay." After hearing the instructions, the two little guys came over to help Zhao Ji just make a rough torch with various branches.
Although the torches made by the two little guys were messy, the working ability of the three of them was obviously better than that of Zhao Ji alone. The sun in the sky has not gone far, and the torch Zhao Ji needs has already been made.
After that, Zhao Ji stopped Tutuge and Irina who wanted to go to the swamp to play, and Zhao Ji went back and forth to move all the wood needed for the torch and fire.
After resting on the sleeping bag in the camp for a while, Zhao Ji went to the woods in the south to pick a lot of leaves. These leaves were prepared for the slime monster hunting tonight.
After everything was done, Zhao Ji saw that the time was okay, so he got into the sleeping bag and lay down to rest, recovering the energy and physical strength consumed during work.
----------------
Seeing that there was nothing to do, Tutugo was catching insects at the gate of the camp, and Wiltz’s shepherd had finished sorting out his notes, so he took out a few pieces of white bread, skewered them with iron skewers, and heated them by the campfire. Watch Tutugo who is playing at the gate of the camp, and don't let him run too far. Irina took out a horn comb from her pouch and straightened her hair.
Tutuge caught a jumping frog that ran here, and secretly hid behind him and returned to the camp. When Irina had straightened her hair and was putting a little flower on her head, Tutugo dropped the jumping frog on Irina's head.
"Wow~~~~~" Irina was taken aback by the slippery jumping frog above her head. Tutugo hugged his belly and laughed loudly. Wiltz's shepherd was spinning the iron skewer with white bread on it, but he was frightened and the iron skewer in his hand fell directly on the fire. This made him have to use another iron pick to pull out the iron pick that fell on the fire.
Zhao Ji was startled awake by the little girl's screams. He lifted one side of the sleeping bag, knelt down and pulled out the long sword at hand.
'Clang! '
"What's the matter, what's the matter. Is there something attacking? Huh? Huh? No." Zhao Ji opened his eyes wide and walked around the camp for a week, but found nothing strange.
After seeing clearly what caused Irina's scream, Wiltz shepherd shouted Tutugo's name loudly, picked up his long staff, and chased after Tutugo who was running away. .
Zhao Ji put the long sword back into its sheath, grabbed the jumping frog on Irina's head, and threw it to the outside of the camp.
Irina, who was frightened by the jumping frog and could only scream, came back to her senses, jumped up from the quilt, angrily grabbed her own long staff, and chased after Tutugo together.
Zhao Ji sat down by the campfire, complaining and muttering something about hating brats.
---------
After a while, Wiltz and Irina took Tutugo back to the camp.
Wiltz's shepherd was obviously still angry, and he used his long staff to drive away Tutugo who lowered his head and dawdled and refused to move forward, while Irina walked beside Tutugo, denouncing Tutugo vigorously. Evil deeds~www.mtlnovel.com~ The little girl's mouth bulged out of anger.
Zhao Ji warmed up the food he brought, and ate slowly. When you feel a little thirsty, take a sip of your drink.
Tutugo was grounded on his quilt by the shepherd Weltz, who asked Tutugo to recite the teachings of the God of Saturn loudly until the meal was served, while Irina wiped her hair with a small handkerchief with a mournful face. on the soil.
Wiltz's shepherds and their white bread are finished. Just now Wiltz was only focused on catching Tutugo, but all their white bread was scorched by the flames. The side of the white bread near the fire was completely blackened by the flames. Fortunately, at least half of it is edible.
Looking at the burnt white bread, the shepherd of Weltz became more and more angry, and asked Tutugo to give Irina the half of his own white bread, and Tutugo had to eat Irina's. That half of the burnt white bread.
Hearing the punishment, Tutuge shrugged, while Irina clapped her hands happily.
Wiltz shepherd himself was eating his half-black and half-white 'white bread'. Seeing this, Zhao Ji handed him a piece of bread with meat.
The bread is ordinary bread, half new wheat and half rye. Of course, the raw materials of wheat that can be sold on the street are carefully ground and sieved. It will not be mixed with bran and other things in the same rough way as the residents eat at home.
The meat was marinated and grilled chicken. Zhao Ji just heated it casually with a fire, broke the bread, and sandwiched the meat inside.
Looking at the warm bread sandwiched with meat, Wiltz shepherd did not refuse. After receiving it, he divided the bread and meat into three with a dagger, and handed them to Tutugo and Irina who were looking forward to it, and kept a third for himself to eat.
