Chapter 41: Preparing to Make a Bedroom
Tang Guo didn’t think much of it at first, but when she saw their exaggerated reactions, she blushed.
Damn it, it was all Bai Ye’s fault!
She exhaled and knelt down to examine the thank-you gifts they had sent. They were basically all meat and fruit, with only a few wild vegetables.
She felt that since she had already exposed the secret of the space to Bai Ye, there was nothing to hide. Hence, she put all these things into the space.
She had saved their females from the stray beasts. It was normal to accept a little thank-you gift.
Her space had a preservation effect. The weather was very hot now. If she left these food items outside, they would spoil before she could eat them. She might as well put them all in her space to keep them fresh.
This was similar to the effect of a refrigerator, but it was much larger.
Now that she had food, she didn’t bother to gather. She went straight to where the bricks were being placed. She checked and found that the mud bricks had dried after the past few days of exposure.
“Didn’t they say that it’s going to be the rainy season soon?” Tang Guo looked at the sun. It was still shining brightly, making her skin tingle. The ground was dry and cracked from the heat, and there was no sign of rain at all!
Pebble saw her walking this way and followed her. In fact, she hadn’t had time to come over for the past few days. He did come over every day to take a look and watch these mud bricks harden.
It felt magical. “Sister Tang Guo, this soil has become very, very hard!”
“It was hard enough to crush a pheasant!”
Tang Guo looked at him in amusement and asked, “You tried?”
Pebble blinked in panic, then said ingratiatingly, “Sister Tang Guo, I’ll catch you a pheasant to eat later!”
“If you’re tired of pheasants, get something else to eat?”
Pebble nodded immediately. “No problem!”
Then she ran off happily.
Tang Guo checked around and realized that the mud bricks were drying faster and harder than she had imagined.
It seemed that it was because the climate was dry and not damp at all.
She did not dwell on it. At this moment, it was naturally more important to build the mud brick house quickly!
She still had to build a kiln for the fire. When the time came, she would sleep in the house in winter and be as warm as she could.
Living in a cave in winter? She felt cold just thinking about it!
If she remembered correctly, the winter here could reach minus forty to fifty degrees Celsius!
It was minus forty to fifty degrees!
How cold must it be? She thought she would have frozen to death without a fire!
In addition to the stove, she had to build a fire wall. As long as the firewood was constant, her house would not be cold at all.
This was called a hothouse!
She had a very good idea, but it was impossible for her to build it alone. She had to ask the warriors of the tribe for help.
She thought of Bai Ye. This person had appeared in front of her very actively when he had pestered her to mate two days ago. Now, he was nowhere to be seen.
Indeed, even in the Beast World, males were the same!
She pursed her lips. She planned to find Milo and Xue and the others to continue hiring their males to work.
Milo and Xue agreed immediately. “Of course there’s no problem! Tang Guo, your food is delicious!”
“Why don’t you teach us a few more different ways to make food?”
“Our men. Use them for as many days as you want!”
She wondered if the lecherous woman in her had been developed by Bai Ye. In any case, when she heard their words, she felt that something was wrong.
Xue and the others thought that she was unwilling and quickly said, “The tribe likes to eat your food now. Everyone can eat more than before! Besides, using the method you taught us, it doesn’t seem to cost too much ingredients!”
To put it simply, the ingredients did not cost more, but everyone could eat more!
That was because she had added wild vegetables and the like. Meat was a hobby of the males, but the wild vegetables added to the stewpot would also become more fragrant. The females loved them, and even the males would take two more bites.
In that case, everyone’s meat would indeed be saved compared to before.
Tang Guo thought of a new way to eat, so she nodded at them and said, “No problem. I’ll teach you how to cook it later!”
“Now, let your males come with me!”
“Let’s go, let’s go!” Xue called to her males. She idolized Tang Guo now. Knowing that she had awakened the Wisdom Star, she couldn’t help but want to see what new and useful thing she was going to invent!
Milo and Rorie were thinking the same thing, so they followed.
Tang Guo didn’t mind them following her. She had an idea of letting everyone live in an earthen house, because living in a cave wasn’t as comfortable as living in a house.
Living in a cave suited the wildling persona, but now she wanted everyone to move toward civilization step by step.
But before they could reach the place where the bricks were placed, they found that there was a commotion at the entrance to the tribe. Someone was screaming, someone was crying, and there were children running around in fear. More people were heading that way.
Tang Guo frowned as she watched. Milo and Xue’s expressions changed as well. A bad feeling rose in their hearts. “What’s going on?”
