Section 378
Compared with the simple sloping house, the thatched house should be regarded as a relatively high-end shelter.
This thing may sound retro.
But even in today's civilized society, its shadow can still be seen in many remote mountainous areas.
This shows how enduring this ancient human habitation is.
If in the process of survival, build a hut.
Then, no matter how bad the weather is, Lu Yu can sit back and relax.
In addition, in addition to the basic function of sheltering from wind and rain.
The difference between a hut and a shelter.
Not even half a star.
That sense of belonging unique to civilization is the best comfort for survivors.
At least it can dilute some of the existential anxiety.
Make people feel at home.
This strengthens the belief in living.
…
Finished introducing the plan of “building a house”.
Lu Yu rubbed his sleepy eyes, slowly climbed out of the shelter, and sat upright.
While adding firewood to boil water, he continued:
"During primitive society, people first lived in caves. Later, with the improvement of productivity and the advancement of civilization, the concept of home gradually formed."
"Soon, the natural shelter of the cave was no longer sufficient for the tribes to live in groups. In order to better carry out slash-and-burn cultivation, and to better reproduce offspring and strengthen the tribe, huts came into being."
"If fire is the most important component in the entire history of primitive civilization, then the hut is the most indispensable primitive label. Therefore, if I want to live a better life, the hut is very important to me."
In the live broadcast room.
While the audience was talking about the "history of civilization" mentioned by Lu Yu, they were also full of expectations for his idea of building a house with his bare hands.
After all, they had never seen a live broadcast about building a house with bare hands before.
Therefore, I really want to see how the "huts" that changed the way humans live were built.
How do you describe this feeling?
It just feels so novel!
It feels like playing a construction and development game!
“Looking forward to ING!”
"Awesome, is Yushen going to build a base camp?"
"A live version of Minecraft?"
"Earth OL high-end VIP players——"
"One hand at the beginning, everything else depends on your making~"
"Open the door for Niubi, Niubi is home!"
"Coach, I want to learn this! It looks so fun!"
"Coach: I can't do it either!"
"Ha ha!"
In anticipation, Lu Yu opened a coconut, roasted some coconut meat, and drank the coconut juice.
Finish breakfast hastily.
In the past few days, the roast badger meat has been eaten.
Because there has been no movement at the hunting spot.
Therefore, Lu Yu made another fish spear and relied on various seafood and coconuts to maintain his daily nutritional intake.
Although it is not rich enough, it is completely enough.
It's just a little stretched.
Soon, I had breakfast and took care of my personal hygiene.
Lu Yu picked up the stone ax and planned to walk around the hunting spot first to see if there was any movement.
On the road.
As he walked, he said:
"No matter whether prey is caught or not, hunting spots must be checked frequently. You must not neglect it. No matter how busy you are, don't forget this matter."
"Unless you want food to pass you by. Otherwise, make it a habit to check hunting spots."
"Because maybe someday, an unexpected surprise will be waiting for you not far away..."
Five minutes later, we arrived at the river.
Lu Yu immediately slowed down and carefully inspected the five hunting traps.
The result was disappointing.
Four days have passed.
The trap was still intact.
Not patronized at all.
Seeing this scene, the hearts of the audience in the live broadcast room froze.
However, Lu Yu was not in a hurry and explained in a low voice:
“Don’t rush the hunt, you have to be patient.”
"When the clouds open and the moon shines, only those who can endure this loneliness are qualified to enjoy the delicious food. When you are frustrated, never give up and show your perseverance."
"Of course, sometimes we have to learn to be flexible. Don't hang yourself from a tree. Our goal is to survive. If this method doesn't work, just think of other methods and don't embarrass yourself too much."
"Let's go back to the camp first and come over again in the evening."
After returning to the camp.
Lu Yu drank some water and then began to work on various materials for building the hut.
Speaking of which, if you want to build a qualified hut with your bare hands, you still need a lot of materials.
Wood, bamboo, thatch, rope, etc.
If you were in other places, it might not be so easy to get all these materials.
But here, there is no need to worry about materials.
The camp is backed by jungle.
Various tropical trees, shrubs, and bamboos are common.
As long as the blade is sharp enough.
None of this is a problem.
After having his goal, Lu Yu left the camp and walked into the jungle.
While looking around, he sorted out the materials needed to build a hut in his mind.
The main beams and general frame of the hut determine the overall stability of the house.
Be sure to choose wood that is hard, tough and easy to evaporate.
Oak is preferred.
But to be honest, most of the big trees like oak grow very tall.
Not easy to cut down.
In addition, the shape of the raw materials is also a major limitation.
If you want to get wood that meets the requirements, you can only polish it manually.
In this way, the time cost is too high.
Therefore, Lu Yu immediately passed the oak and set his sights on shrubs and some low trees.
Although the hardness of shrubs and small trees cannot be compared with that of large trees.
But they can save production costs to the greatest extent and help you complete the hut faster and better.
As long as you choose carefully, the quality may not be bad.
Soon, after a round of walking, Lu Yu suddenly stopped beside a low tree.
The tree looks ordinary.
There is nothing special.
The trunk is straight.
There are slightly fewer leaves.
About one person tall.
"If I'm not mistaken, this should be a kind of beech wood unique to the island. It has all the characteristics of beech wood. The only difference is that it is much shorter, but it should be more than enough to build the main frame and main beam of the hut."
There are many such low beech trees growing around the jungle.
There were dozens of trees, all sorts of them.
It was enough to supply the materials.
Seeing this, Lu Yu randomly selected one that met the requirements, then swung the stone axe, aimed at the tail of the tree trunk, and started chopping.
These days, when he was free, Lu Yu would go to the beach to sharpen the stone axe.
So after a few times, the axe blade became much sharper.
After only three or five axe strikes, a large gap could be seen on the tree trunk.
