Traveling through the world of beasts: I light up my survival skills in the wild

Chapter 28 Basket

The werewolf's intelligence once again refreshed Su Ran's understanding of orcs. Su Ranjue's werewolf's learning ability was a little better than Xiao Ju's.

After the werewolves learned to say each other's names in human language, it was like opening a door to a new world of language, and Su Ran's teaching speed suddenly increased.

So they sat on the beach, eating barbecue, and Su Ran taught the werewolf how to speak.

In half a day, the werewolf had learned the names of the two people, as well as the single-letter names of sea, tree, sheep, cow, fire, etc.

Su Ran focused on teaching the werewolf the pronunciation of sea many times.

She needs to let the werewolf remember the meaning and pronunciation of this word so that she can let the werewolf take her to the beach next time.

During this period, Su Ran had already baked another tea vat of salt.

She put the smashed salt powder into a gum jar, then filtered a tea jar full of sea water and continued to burn salt.

It was now past one o'clock in the afternoon, and Su Ran decided to go back after burning the salt in the tea jar.

"Ranran!"

The werewolf sat next to her and kept repeating the vocabulary he had learned. Su Ran couldn't help laughing and responded to it: "Yes, Ran Ran!"

As soon as she finished speaking, the werewolf immediately grinned.

Really like a child.

Of course, this is in a non-attack state!

Su Ran thought.

This would be considered a break in teaching, but Su Ran couldn't take a break yet.

She first used a tactical knife to cut off one thigh of the four-eared cow. The leg meat was connected to the entire hip, and almost a quarter of the meat of the four-eared cow was cut off.

Then she crushed some red and green berries and smeared them on the beef, then sprinkled them with salt, briefly marinated them for a while, then put them on branches and put them on the fire.

The fire in the barbecue fire had become much smaller, so Su Ran added more branches to the fire underneath.

While there was still time to burn salt, she wanted to roast as much beef as possible to eat at night, so that she would not have to go back to light the fire.

She felt that the weather was really getting hotter and hotter these days.

If the food is left out for too long, it may not be able to hold it anymore.

Su Ran guessed that the time when she traveled to this world would be at the end of spring and the beginning of summer. Otherwise, those ripe fruits would not grow so fast.

"Ash."

She shouted at the werewolf who was still pointing stupidly at the waves and saying "Sea~".

The werewolf turned his head and looked at her wagging his tail: "Wu? Ran Ran?"

"I'm going to the woods to find something."

Su Ran pointed to the woods and said again: "Tree."

The werewolf looked in the direction of her finger, flicked his tail, and muttered in confusion: "Tree!"

Su Ran smiled at its appearance and said nothing. Instead, she took the engineering shovel she had brought and turned around and walked towards the woods.

She had just seen a shrub half as tall as a man in the woods.

Although the branches of the shrubs are not as good as the willows at the Bird's Nest Tree, they are still very resilient.

In the absence of willow branches, she thought that the branches of that shrub would be suitable for making baskets.

That kind of shrub grew at the edge of the woods, and she quickly found a large area.

She holds a sapper shovel in her hand.

This engineer shovel is a multifunctional design.

The main parts are the design of a shovel and a hoe. When using one part, just fold the other part along the handle and put it away.

On both sides of the shovel head, one side is serrated and can be used as a saw blade, and the other side functions as a bottle opener.

Su Ran directly used the side of the saw. She stretched out her hand to grab a handful of the shrub, and used the saw blade to cut hard at the bottom of the shrub twice.

At the beginning, she still had trouble mastering the strength and technique, but as the number of saws increased, more and more shrub branches were cut, and Su Ran became more and more comfortable in using the saw blade on the engineer shovel.

After feeling that it was almost done, Su Ran divided the shrub branches into two piles.

Then she pulled out a shrub stick from each and tied the two piles of branches into a bundle. She said to the werewolf who had followed her curiously and was squatting aside watching when she was collecting shrub branches: "Hui, help.

Take it back."

"Woo?"

The werewolf tilted his head towards her and shook his ears.

At this time, it was able to understand that Su Ran was calling its name, but it still couldn't understand the subsequent words.

Su Ran didn't talk nonsense, but directly dragged a bundle of shrub branches and stuffed it into the werewolf's arms.

Now the werewolf understood. It happily "ouched" at Su Ran, and then with a little force on its arms, it directly picked up the bundle of shrubs with one arm.

Then when Su Ran went to pick up another bundle of shrubs, it immediately followed and picked up the other bundle.

The two returned to the fire. Su Ran first turned the beef thighs that were roasting on the fire, then looked at the sea water that had burned less than one-third of the water, and then sat on the ground and started to prepare the basket.

.

She first picked up the shrubs and used a tactical knife to cut off all the branches and leaves on each shrub.

Each branch of this shrub does not have many branches, but more leaves that grow from the roots to the top.

A leaf consists of five small leaves, and in the middle of the five leaves is a cluster of blue flowers with very small petals.

After the leaves were almost cut, Su Ran began to weave the wooden strips.

She learned a little bit of basket weaving from her grandfather when she was in junior high school.

At that time, my grandfather's family was still farming, and every household planted a small patch of apple trees on the mountain to the north of the village.

When harvesting apples, a vegetable basket made of wooden strips is used.

This kind of basket is not difficult to make, and the elderly are not willing to spend money, so they always make the tools themselves.

Su Ran went back for the holidays and happened to catch up with her grandfather weaving baskets, so she started learning from her grandfather on a whim.

Although I didn’t learn very well in the end, I still remember the method.

She first took several shrub strips and stacked them crosswise, and then used a tree strip to intersperse and circle between several shrub strips. When one shrub strip was used up, she added a new one.

After a few turns, a round base was coiled out.

After unwrapping the base of the basket, she pressed up the parts of the tree strips that had not yet been woven into each other to make a gathering look, and then continued to weave the body of the basket with new shrub branches.

part.

Because she had to carry a lot of things, the basket she wove this time was a little deeper than the ordinary basket.

After she felt that the knitted basket body was almost ready, she began to close the mouth of the basket.

But she didn't forget to install a handle.

So more than half an hour later, Su Ran's first handmade basket was successfully produced!
