survival in the wilderness

Chapter 144 Road Construction Part II

Before building the road, Lin Yan had already approached Bai Chen and asked her to prepare some thick notebooks for her to copy.

Bai Chen naturally nodded in agreement, and asked Lin Yan about printing.She had heard Lin Yan mention it before. Now that paper is available, some things need a lot of quantity, and manual copying is too slow.

Lin Yan was extremely happy, and it would be great to have Bai Chen share this matter.She talked about the principles of living body printing and engraving printing, etc., and asked Bai Chen to find a way to do it by himself.

As long as he has an idea, Lin Yan believes that Bai Chen will be able to do it.

The group of people she personally selected are all persistent and tenacious, as long as they want to do it, they will do their best.

Just like Huang Ying, since she discovered the joy of herbal medicine, she set up a medical research laboratory, immersed in it every day, and studied it without sleep.

The poisonous scorpions and centipedes that Huang Ying brought back last year had already refined their poisons. This time, they brought some with them for road construction and kept them strictly, just waiting for them to experience the miraculous effect when encountering fierce beasts.

Lin Yan once went to Huang Ying's office and saw that it was filled with various records, countless bottles and cans were placed everywhere, and Huang Ying's figure shuttled among them.

In fact, each of their offices seems to be similar, disorganized.But everyone is in awe of Huang Ying's house.

Regardless of her own safety, she was able to take risks and walk at the forefront of poison research. This spirit is worth learning.

Everyone is working hard in their own direction, which is not much different from Lin Yan's initial expectation.

Early the next morning, Lan Yue saw that Lin Yan was in a good mood, and asked casually, "Why are you so happy?"

"So obvious?" Lin Yan raised her eyebrows, she thought it was the same as usual.

Lan Yue nodded, "It's abnormal that you can smile at everything from the moment you wake up."

Looking around, everyone was busy, Lin Yan asked in a low voice: "Your mental strength has also reached level Z, has there been any progress recently?"

"It's been less than a month since you reached the Z level, and you can extend about eight meters away. There is no other progress." Lan Yue said truthfully, and suddenly realized something, "Have you made a breakthrough in your mental power?"

Seeing Lin Yan's happy face early in the morning, Lan Yue felt that she must have guessed right.

She also knew about Lin Yan's mental strength. The two communicated frequently and understood each other.

Lin Yan grinned and nodded, "I tried it last night, and it actually did it. I can touch the real thing, and the touch feels real, just like touching it with my hands."

"Is it really possible?" Lan Yue's eyes lit up, "You can touch everything within the reach of your spiritual power?"

If so, it would be a qualitative leap.Before, their spiritual power could only be visited, but had no other effect.With practice, the individual's perception ability is enhanced, and the five senses become more and more acute.

Lin Yan shook his head, "I just discovered that sometimes it can work and sometimes it won't work, so I need to practice more."

She thought so too last night, and immediately tried countless times, but it turned out that it was not the case.After asking Fat Bao, he learned that it might be that he has just made progress, and after practicing for a while, he will be able to fully achieve it.

After further training, one will be able to control things with mental power.

At that time, the area covered by mental power was her home field, and she could do whatever she wanted.

The two exchanged in low voices, Mao Mu and Lin Yun came over with breakfast, and after listening to a few words, they were both happy for Lin Yan, and at the same time they were more motivated to practice.

Mao Mu and Lin Yun are really brothers and sisters in spiritual power cultivation. They were too old when they cultivated, and they lagged behind step by step. With their friends, they are still at R level now.

Looking at Lin Yan and Lan Yue, the two of them knew in their hearts that flattery would not be able to catch up. They had already accepted the facts, calmed down, and practiced unremittingly.

After a few people finished eating, they started to work.

Lin Yan followed Lan Yue closely, Mao Mu and Lin Yun followed them, the four formed a small team.

This road construction required a large number of people, so Lin Yan and Lan Yue refused to send someone from Heitu to protect them.

With Mao Mu and Lin Yun around, and each of them carrying self-defense weapons, they have not stopped exercising, and they have some self-protection ability.

Heitu tried his best to persuade him at the time, but seeing Lin Yan's firm eyes, he finally compromised, and he could only let people pay attention secretly, so that no accidents should happen.

Lanyue is already 11 years old, and she has grown up very quickly in the past two years. She is 1.5 meters tall and looks like she has grown up.

Lin Yan was more than a head shorter than her, only 1.1 meters.

Over the years, they all know the importance of physical fitness, insist on exercising, and they are no longer the weak dolls they used to be.

Several people walked among the crowd, observed the surrounding terrain, and made notes from time to time.With the population growth rate of Sun City, this piece of land can be reclaimed in a few years.

While building the road, they surveyed the terrain in advance to prepare for the future.

Lin Yan was writing something when he suddenly heard Lan Yue calling her.

"Come and see, what is this?" Lanyue held a machete in her hand and was chopping the bushes. After cutting to the back, she found something hidden under the bushes.

There was a dead stump with a black growth.

Lin Yan only glanced at it, and Fat Bao had already given the answer, "It's black fungus, which can be eaten and used as medicine."

"It's really edible, it looks black?" Lanyue stretched out her hand to touch it, "It's soft and slippery, in clumps, like leaves."

Lin Yan said affirmatively: "Eatable, it's a good tonic, rich in nutrition. It can be fried or cooked. Fresh ones are not easy to store, and dried ones can be stored for a long time."

While talking, she has started picking black fungus.She seems to have overlooked some fungi, which have not been discovered in the past few years.

After thinking about it, Lin Yan understood that everyone's attention was focused on the fresh vegetation, such as fungus mushrooms, which grew in dark, damp and inconspicuous places, and people subconsciously ignored them.

A new ingredient was discovered, and it spread all over the world in a short while. During the break, everyone came to see what it looked like, and picked it back when they encountered it.

In the wild, there are treasures everywhere, and taking them home can increase a little income for the family.

Every day of road construction was the same, and Lin Yan followed suit, digging soil and cutting trees, and working with everyone.

At the end of February, the road had been repaired halfway, and it reached the edge of the pika, and there were mostly jungles and hills behind.

The taller the trees, the more difficult it is to cut them down.

But there are also advantages. Under tall trees, where the sun does not shine, the vegetation grows sparsely, and it is easier to clean up.

Some people looked at the felled trees as a waste, and built a few wooden houses on the side of the road in their free time, so they could rest in them on the way to the mine in the future.

Lin Yan thinks this is a good idea. When the road to the mine is repaired, the total length of the journey will be about 320 miles. If one person walks [-] miles a day, it will only take five or six days to get there. Ten days.

It takes less than half a month to go back and forth, and the time to transport ore will be greatly shortened in the future.This road is worth repairing.

There are wooden houses on the side of the road, and people on the road have rest places. You can consider building wooden houses at intervals, so that it is safer to sleep outside at night.
