Chapter 2224 Spring
Su Nian and Chu Beichen's husband and wife got Shi Kun's advice by accident, and suddenly understood the trick of manipulating the golden ball.

This made it possible for Su Nian and Chu Beichen to leave the cedar forest and return to the modern world.

The husband and wife were encouraged and did not feel that the following life would be boring.

It's just that after living in the cedar forest for a long time, Su Nian encountered hygiene troubles.

First of all there is no laundry detergent or soap in this place.

You don't have to wash your clothes for a day or two or even ten days and a half months, but what about the long time?

Even a clean and beautiful woman like Su Nian would have a headache when she saw the stains on her cuffs.

Because they ate meat every day, Su Nian felt that the air in the room might smell of oil, so the clothes got dirty very quickly.

Seeing his wife worrying about such a trivial matter, Chu Beichen couldn't help shaking his head, "Let's make some soap!"

Chu Beichen has never made soap himself, but he knows the principle of making soap.

Soap is actually made by mixing oil and lye.

Among them, the ratio of oil to lye, as well as the stirring time, is the most test of human craftsmanship. If the ratio is not appropriate or the time is not well grasped, the processed soap will be difficult to shape.

There is no shortage of oil in the house, and there are large chunks of pure fat on the prey they eat every day. In line with the principle of health considerations, Su Nian usually removes these things when cooking.

As for soda ash, there is no such thing, but the husband and wife soon discovered a plant similar to saponins.

After refining and processing, the two people got lye with a certain concentration.

The blizzard had occupied day and night, and the husband and wife had nothing to do. In the spirit of experimentation, soon after the third failure, they made a shaped soap.

Su Nian was very happy, and after getting the soap, he immediately washed all the clothes of the two of them, as well as the animal skins they often used.

Considering that there may be many people who like soap, Chu Beichen specially invited the bearded village chief to watch while he was still making soap.

As for the speed of technology dissemination, it should be very fast, because the couple soon discovered that the people in the village were much cleaner. Everyone tasted the sweetness of hygiene and washed their hair and body with soap.

There are also some quick-witted people who try to sell the soap in the market, but people in other villages don't understand the beauty of soap and think it is a kind of food, so the sale of soap is not good. Apparently some got in trouble for the soap man.

Now there is no way to hunt. After the great migration in early winter, all the animals have gone to places suitable for winter.

There are only hibernating bears in the cedar forest, and squirrels.

Compared with human beings, they are the masters of the cedar forest. Chu Beichen didn't dare to provoke a hibernating bear, he hadn't reached the level of hunger.

Whenever the weather is fine, Chu Beichen will drive all the animals in the house out for a walk.

This is a strange team.

Chu Beichen ran ahead with the sled, the dogs ran wildly around the sled, and the five ponies followed behind very reservedly, walking like dancing.

The bodies of the two calves had grown very large, but their minds did not seem to grow accordingly. They thought they were still calves, so they followed behind the team timidly and at a very slow speed.

Chu Beichen will try to run as far as possible, the purpose is to keep the animals vigorous.

His move was ridiculed by other residents of Huodong Village at first.

The weather is very cold in winter, and the animals themselves have to consume more forage than usual to resist the cold.

Chu Beichen even let the animals wander around. There is no doubt that his feed will be consumed faster.

The fact is indeed the case, the hay and plants that Chu Beichen had stored were consumed very quickly.

But his animals were also exceptionally strong.

Especially the two calves he brought home, after several months of feeding, have turned into two muscular and strong big cows, one of which has a pointed horn on its head.

As the days passed, Su Nian felt that the days were getting longer.

In the middle of the night, Su Nian sat up from the cushion suddenly, because she heard a loud bang that she had never heard before, coming from outside.

"Bei Chen, listen quickly, what's that sound?" Su Nian was very surprised, she didn't understand what broke the silence of the cedar forest.

"It should be the sound from the other side of the river." Chu Beichen jumped off the mat and opened the door. The rumble outside became louder, almost rushing into the room. Su Nian felt a little scared, the sound was natural Voice, full of power.

It was very dark outside and couldn't see anything, Chu Beichen suddenly took two steps forward, he felt it, then turned his head and said to Su Nian in surprise, "Su Nian, it's raining, spring is coming!"

It was a cold rain, to be exact it was a freezing rain.

Su Nian stood beside Chu Beichen in animal skins, and the rain splashed on her head and body.

In addition to the rain, she also heard the sound of splashing.

"Beichen, has the glacier melted? The water has flowed into the village!" Su Nian looked towards the yard in a panic. She was afraid that the river would flood into the yard and drown their food and livestock. ?
"Don't worry, the people of Huodong Village have lived here for generations. When they build wooden houses, they will definitely build them on high ground. Even if there is a river gushing out, it will not pose a threat to us," Chu Beichen smiled. He patted Su Nian on the shoulder and pulled her back to the room.

The panthers, with their two cubs, were allowed to sleep by the fireplace, a privilege that gave them supremacy among the dogs.

At this moment, the black panther's ears were pricked up, and it felt like it was staring outside, as if it had realized that the weather had changed.

The two cubs of the black panther were born in early winter. They have never seen spring, and they can run around in front of the fireplace curiously at this moment. They turn their heads frequently and tell the panther that they want to go out and have a look.

The black panther made a warning sound from its throat to stop the pups from acting rashly.

At this moment outside the cabin, where Su Nian and Chu Beichen couldn't see, the path was completely invisible.

The turbulent river flowed on the ground, forming a whirlpool.

The low trees at the entrance of the village have been swallowed by the flood, and only the branches are above the water, swirling constantly.

The torrent looked terrible, and as the river passed, the cedar canopy formed some tumbling white foam that swirled away into the distance.

The cold and dry air suddenly became moist, infiltrated with moisture.

When it was almost dawn, it was still pitch black outside, Chu Beichen rushed into the barn with a piece of animal skin on his back to check the situation inside.
