Live Wilderness Adventure

Chapter 694 Labor

The silent woods were filled with monotonous chopping sounds and occasional barking of dogs. Bi Fang, who took off his coat, smashed down the stone hammer, and the wooden wedge under the stone hammer was further embedded in the tree, dry in full swing.

The rustling snow fell on his shoulders and quickly melted into water stains under the warm body temperature, but Bi Fang did not feel the cold at all. After eating breakfast, his whole body was full of strength, and the billowing heat radiated from his body, dispelling all the cold. severe cold.

After dozens of beatings, the fourth wedge was inserted into the tree, and the tree was almost completely broken, but this still did not make the tree fall, and it was still a little bit short.

The big rough hands tightly hold the polished wooden hammer handle, and the muscular forearm muscles are tightly bound, contracting and relaxing, and under the support of strong bones, the strength is progressive.

The stone hammer was lifted to the highest point, and finally, driven by the muscles of the upper arm, it drew a semi-circular arc and hit the wooden wedge precisely.

click.

Cracks pierced through the bark, making a crisp sound. The bark lacking moisture in the extreme cold area is dry and brittle, as if a piece of crispy pork skin that has been fried has been broken.

After a while of swaying, the completely broken huge pine log slowly fell to one side, and the last remaining snow on the branches slanted down.

As if falling on the cotton field, a large amount of snow was blowing up, and the choking smoke and dust were everywhere, but it was not uncomfortable because it was all snowflakes.

After a while, Bi Fang walked out of the woods with a log on his shoulders and threw it on the snow. His cheeks were slightly flushed, whether it was due to the cold or too much physical exertion.

Bi Fang did not choose to build the wooden house next to the river, but chose a relatively open area about 30 meters away from the river bend.

The snow on the ground was cleared early, revealing the gray-white soil, on which the trees felled by Bi Fang were piled up, and beside it was a deep pit with a depth of two meters, which was dug by Bi Fang and Sansha together. from.

The deep pit does not have any special function or meaning, but after Bi Fang dug out the peat soil, he had a whim to see if there was any under this valley.

It's just that compared to the time when the blizzard broke out, the peat soil here was buried very deep. After digging for more than one meter, it was only found after nearly two meters. Compared with normal peat soil, it is already a relatively deep level. up.

That's great, you don't have to worry about fuel in the future.

Bi Fang put the logs down from his shoulders and patted the sawdust on his hands. For him, the peat soil was inexhaustible.

Large and small logs have been cut off with excess branches and neatly stacked together, but this is only the beginning, and further trimming, cutting, and digging out the corresponding mortise and tenon structures are required.

Without exclusive tools, although it is not impossible to use only a dagger, it will undoubtedly be more troublesome, and it will be a long and complicated process, and even the audience will feel a little tired watching it.

"Since the wood doesn't have notches, a frame needs to be built to hold the wood up."

Bi Fang selected suitable wood to bury in the soil and tamped it down.

"First, collect 14 solid wooden poles between 2.5 and 3 meters. Bury 3 wooden poles at each of the 4 corners. This will use a total of 12 wooden poles."

"Bury the wooden pole 20 to 30 centimeters into the ground, compact the surrounding soil, and fix the wooden pole. Insert two more wooden poles more than half a meter to the left of the right front corner. This area will become the doorway. Note that all support poles are anchored to support the horizontal wooden poles that form the shelter walls."

Bi Fang did it very seriously, driving the sharpened wood into the ground, and finally shaking it, it was very firm.

It is another extremely exhausting process.

【Can you really learn it? I feel like you are lying to me】

【I was discovered by you (dog head)】

From felling to clearing the ground to driving all the stakes, a day passed like this.

"I'm too tired, I'm here today, I'm going to rest."

The tired Bi Fang turned off the live broadcast.

The sun didn't even show a corner today, and Bi Fang looked at the distant skyline at noon.

Yesterday, at any rate, I was still hovering between revealing a corner and just shining, but today it is really just shining.

Sighing, Bi Fang pushed the wooden stake he fixed. It was so strong that he didn't move when he bumped into it after a run-up of three meters.

"Once all the support poles are in place, the logs can be cross-stacked between them. The logs are reinforced and the gaps sealed with a light 'mortar' made of grass and silt."

Although Bi Fang didn't cut many trees, each tree can be formed into several sections, which is enough for use.

"To make grass mortar, you mix equal parts silt and a fibrous material like hay, straw or fern. When it dries, the mixture acts like superglue."

Bi Fang dug a small hole in the snow on the side, and poured river water, silt from the river, some ferns and long strips of bark into it.

"The back wall of the wooden house should be higher than 1.5 meters, and the front wall should be higher than 2 meters. The drop is large enough to avoid being pressed by the snow and eventually collapse."

Bi Fang placed a piece of wood horizontally on the front wall and the door, using the side walls for support.

Finally, he smeared a large amount of prepared mortar on the inside and outside of the wall. Under the cold wind, the mortar quickly solidified and turned into a light off-white.

Bi Fang placed the logs side by side on the top of the bunker, at right angles to the doorway, until it was completely closed.

All gaps were then closed with earth mortar and covered with sod and foliage cut from the logs.

"If you're going to have a fire in a log cabin, make sure the ventilation holes are large enough to open and close, and you can use any suitable material for the door, or you can choose to build a wooden door from existing materials."

"But most of the time it's needed because the bunker you build becomes your home, so it's important to have a fire area."

"With fire, there is light for heating, cooking and entertaining. But if it is not used properly, it can lead to fire, and people may even die in flames."

"Before starting a fire inside the bunker, make sure the vents are functional and that the smoke can be extracted to prevent suffocation and carbon monoxide poisoning."

"A good fire pit is usually located between the door and the center of the bunker. This location does not interfere with the use of the rear of the bunker. For best results, dig a circular fire pit less than half a meter in diameter, a little deeper, preferably over two meters, and then lay stones on the bottom and sides."

When Bi Fang built the wooden house, a hole flowed out of the outer wall, and the rock was mixed with mortar to build a protruding opening, just to build a fire pit at this time.
