[As long as I eat out, I will always be thirsty. 】
After getting water from the first bamboo, Mu Qing drank half of the bottle in one go.
"I feel that even with a bamboo plug, the water will still be less every time I take it."
"If this continues, if you come to the bamboo forest in the future, you can really guarantee that there will always be water to drink."
"We should dig a small pond to store water."
After fetching water from the marked bamboos, Muqing found a new bamboo to use as a tool for fetching water.
Fill all four water bottles and put them in the pannier.
He chopped down a long and thick old bamboo and dragged it back to the bottom of the tree house.
Pour a cup of water into the pot and boil it.
Split the bamboo that has been cut back, cut it in half, and remove the inner bamboo joints.
I took it to the bottom of the tree house and made a gesture, cut off some of the excess at the top, and threw it into the firewood pile, saving it for use.
"It is too wasteful to collect rainwater with bamboo tubes. I have to dig a canal on the ground and bury the bamboo that has been split in half."
"The one in the camp is a culvert, so this one is considered an open canal."
"The next time it rains, the rainwater will flow down the roof, into the bamboo channel that I laid underneath, and then flow into the small pond in front."
"The rainwater just picked up, boiled and drunk for two days should still be fine."
Muqing took away the bamboo tube covered with rainwater collection, and carefully placed it on the other side.
Based on the traces that were pried with a stick yesterday, I continued to dig deeper and cover a larger area.
After digging in one direction, put down the cut bamboo, press it with your hands, and take out the bamboo again.
Add some mud to the places where you dig more, and dig a little more where you don’t dig.
Use a short stick to flatten the side, press the ground slightly flat, and put the bamboo down again.
After pressing a few places with his hands, he nodded in satisfaction.
"The ground that has been rained is easier to dig, and the requirements for the depth and width of this kind of open channel will be much smaller."
"The water diversion system of the tree house is much easier to make than that of the camp."
As he spoke, Muqing dragged the other half of the bamboo, and dug out the ditches at the opposite corner.
After the two halves of bamboo were buried, Muqing went to the edge of the bamboo grove and came back after cutting down an old bamboo.
Cut out two halves of bamboo again.
After dragging halfway to the bottom of the tree house, Mu Qing stood still and became tangled.
In which direction should the small pool be dug, and how big should it be?
On the inside, there is no sunlight, and fallen leaves and small insects are easy to fall into.
On the outside, the ground above the ground is relatively open, and the sun is exposed to the sun for a long time in a day. The rise in water temperature is likely to breed bacteria in the water.
After some calculation, Muqing chose to dig inside.
The remaining half of bamboo just made a cover to cover the small pool.
"I decided to dig the pool on the inside, and now I'm going to bury the outermost bamboo for water diversion."
After choosing a place, Muqing continued to pry the soil layer in the other direction, dug to a suitable level, and put the bamboo into the ditch.
"Look, so the three sides of the tree house are enclosed."
"There is a pool to be dug on the left side, so let's ignore it for the time being. I'll go get a section of Hsinchu and fix the turning point on the right side."
Muqing found a small section of new bamboo on the ground, cut it in half, and removed the bamboo knots inside.
Put the outer side of the bamboo on the fire and burn it, and use both hands to break it inward to bend the bamboo joints.
Then put it on the fire and burn it, and then bend it a little bit.
[Ruthless Iron Hand. 】
[I also want to ask, will it not be hot? 】
[Little brother from the family: Master Mu's time control is very good, this level is enough to make the bamboo a little bit more flexible, and it won't burn your hands. 】
[Now, let's leave the mic to the professionals. 】
【Huh?How did the god of bamboo become the younger brother of bamboo? 】
After repeating it several times, Muqing felt that the angle should be almost the same, so he rinsed it with clean water to cool and shape the bamboo.
I took the mat and placed it on the right side of the tree house, and tried it at the junction of the two bamboos.
Trim off some of the excess and sand it down a bit.
The turning of the entire waterway is very smooth and complete.
"The bamboo is straight and stuck on the ground, and where the bamboo connects, a part of the soil layer is exposed."
"Although it does not affect the flowing water, it will bring a lot of soil into the pool after a long time."
"With this small section, the whole waterway is perfect."
The two sections of water channels here are finished, and the water in the pot has been boiling on the stove for a while.
Mu Qing poured the boiled water into the cup.
Go back to the corridor and take out the bottom of the pot left over from yesterday.
"Although the bottom of the pot caused me at least five more trips yesterday, it is still a good thing, despite its flaws."
"I cooked the food yesterday, if I cook it again today, the taste should be lighter."
Opening the lid, Muqing first smelled it to make sure that the bottom of the pot hadn't deteriorated.
He took out the inner bowl and poured the bottom of the pot into the clay pot, added half a cup of hot water to it, and put it on the stove to burn.
"It's okay if you don't see the food, but you will feel really hungry if you see it."
"I'll have breakfast first. This should be considered lunch. Make arrangements for lunch first, and then dig the pool."
