The last dragon ever

Chapter 103 Spring Rain
Spring rain is as expensive as oil.

Potatoes and sweet potatoes have only been in the ground for a few days, and there is a light rain, which is really timely.

Yang Luyun also laughed at their luck.

"Hehehe... this is the blessing of the Dragon God!"

"Dragon God is above!"

"Blessings from the Dragon God!"

When it rains, they can't go hunting, and they feel a bit inconvenient.Unexpectedly, when the Dragon God said this, it seemed that the rain was also quite good.

When it doesn't rain, you can hunt; when it rains, you can grow plants in the field.

Yang Luyun asked the chief Xia how the houses in the tribe are doing, and who else is missing?

"There are not many people left, almost all of them are there." The leader Xia said, "Except for some families with children, according to the Dragon God's request, one family is one family. Those bachelors have nothing to worry about, just a few people squeeze together."

"Our Shangyao tribe has five straw-mud huts, which is enough for several people." The leader Yao also said, "This house is much better than the one we built before. Our house leaked rain before, but the Dragon God Look at this house, it’s not leaking at all.”

A house that doesn't leak, I didn't dare to imagine it before.

"Build a few more rooms, so it will be convenient for people from the Shangyao tribe to live in." Yang Luyun sat in the center of the room, with a thick woven straw mat under her buttocks.

The old men and women of the Sun Tribe are very creative. After they discovered that bamboo can be used to carry baskets, they began to try to weave things with other plants.I would think of using thread grass, one is that the thread grass is more flexible, and the other is that the thread grass is often used to sit or lie down in the tribe, it is easy to run, but if weaved together, it is not so easy to run.

Moreover, since they learned how to bake and cook, they also boiled the thread grass in the pot, and found that the boiled thread grass is very soft, which is perfect for weaving and sitting things.

Now, Yang Lu's bed is covered with several layers of this stuff, and it feels soft when she sleeps, and it is more comfortable than animal skins when it is not cold.

The animal skin is soft, but if the season is not suitable, it is easy to feel hot and sweat when lying on it.

The thread grass is still comfortable. It is a bit hard if it is not boiled and dried, but it will be soft after being boiled and dried.

Yang Luyun expressed great encouragement to their creativity and inspired their greater enthusiasm for creation.Under her prompting, they even learned to weave more things with thread grass, such as replacing the original thread grass skirt and leaf skirt, but edited a real skirt.

It's the pants and the like, because they need to divide holes and so on, they still can't handle it well, and they are studying it.

But Yang Luyun believes that they will definitely get out the clothes and pants in a short time.And she also thought about whether to let them find the plants that make hemp?

Well, what is hemp made of?

What's the name of that pointy, long thing that looks like a palm tree leaf?
Yang Luyun thought for a long time, but she didn't come up with it, but she finally took a leaf and drew a rough outline on the ground.When this plant is unfolded, it looks like a peacock's tail, forming a big fan shape, and its leaves are strips drawn one by one, green.

"I don't know if you have seen this kind of thing. If you have, please bring it back to me. This kind of thing can be processed like thread grass to make things like blankets and clothes. ..."

"I've seen this thing before." When Agu saw it, he said, "There are many in the woods, and I know which place has the most. But Dragon God, this thing is very hard, it's not soft like thread grass, and it can Cut your fingers."

He had been cut before.

"After getting this thing back, you can dry it in the shade, put it in a pot and boil it until it becomes soft, and then put it on a slate or wooden board and hammer it hard. Don't hammer it into pieces, but hammer it into silk, and then put the inside of it into silk. Pull out the silk, the silk is soft, and you can use the silk inside to make things..." Yang Luyun is going to ask the old people in the tribe to study this thing, they are patient, and they will be able to make it out.

"The production process seems to be more troublesome than threading grass." Agu touched his chin and said.

Although he didn't do it himself, he also helped the old man when he did it.After the thread grass itself is boiled, it is relatively soft, and it does not need to be hammered at all. It will become silk after a little kneading with hands.

"But the threads of silk grass are easy to break, and the threads of this thing are not easy to break. I remembered, this thing is called sisal, and it looks like a sword." Speaking of sisal, Yang Luyun thought of something else, " There is another thing, based on our current conditions, there is no way to make clothes, but it can be made into other things. It should appear in autumn, growing on the top of plants, in clusters, white, like the sky. It’s like a cloud, and it feels soft to the touch. If you see this kind of thing, remember to bring it back to me. Don’t you always feel cold in winter? This thing is called cotton, and it can be used to keep warm..."

Agu's first reaction was: "Is it warmer than animal skin?"

"It's different. The animal skin is only so big and needs to be spliced. This cotton does not need it. The cotton is in balls, and we can sew it into the clothes at that time. It is a layer of cloth on the top, a layer of cloth on the bottom, and cotton plugs. Between the two layers of cloth..." Yang Luyun said while picking up the straw blanket under her body, folded it into two layers, took a sweet potato as cotton, and stuffed it in the middle to let them understand what it meant.

"This is a good thing, Dragon God. I'll let everyone in the tribe pay attention to it." Usually, everyone didn't pay attention, so the leader Xia was not sure if anyone in the tribe had seen it.

But he made up his mind that when the rain stopped and the people in the tribe gathered in the tribe square, he must tell everyone about it.

The winter is so cold, they used to only have animal skins, and I don't know how many people died of cold every year.

And last year, because of the Dragon God, they learned how to bake, and everyone survived.But after all, the fire is fixed in one place and cannot be moved, which is somewhat inconvenient.

When everyone walks around, they all carry animal skins, and animal skins are limited, so it is impossible to be afraid that someone will have them, and the size is not easy to control.

But this cotton is different. Dragon God said that it is a flower, which can change with the size of the clothes.Thinking of the clothes, skirts, blankets and so on that everyone has just researched and woven with thread grass, I feel that this thing is not too convenient.

I don't know if it's his illusion, why does he think that plants are more powerful than animals?

Plants can not only feed them, but also allow them to build houses, make clothes, and blankets for winter, so what do animals do?
In the future, they hunt, one is to eat and feed themselves; the other is for animal skins to keep warm in winter, but when there are substitutes for everything, and these substitutes are not life-threatening, is this still a choice?
When it rained, everyone thought they had lost themselves, but they didn't want the leaders of the two tribes to sit in the Dragon God's house with a few people for a day, discussing a lot of things.

The leader Xia thought, it seems that the occasional rain is also quite good.
