At noon, Zhou Wen and Liu Rushi each ate a can of Eight Treasures Congee and opened a bag of spicy fish. They ate happily and the atmosphere was harmonious.
After eating the spicy fish, they each washed an apple and ate it. Their lives were very good.
Liu Yuxuan and the other girls were in a miserable state. They had only eaten half a can of Eight Treasures Congee since last night. They had caught fish for a long time, but in the end, they only got a dozen finger-sized fish and a few seashells.
This was especially true for Tian Rongrong, who had injured her hand while trying to catch a crab. Her skin had broken and she had bled quite a bit.
The four women returned to the floating wooden house and saw that the fire in the fire pit had been extinguished. There was not even a spark.
This was exactly how it was like when the house was leaking, it would rain overnight. It was as desolate as it could be.
In the end, the four women had no choice but to place the small fish on a stone that was burning hot under the sun. With the high temperature of the stone, they dried the small fish and finally ate it half-cooked…
While the four women were starving, Zhou Wen had already gotten Liu Rushi to rest. He moved the trees alone like a tireless worker ant.
In fact, Zhou Wen wasn't particularly tired. Every time he felt tired, he would rest for ten minutes or so and be full of energy.
Thanks to the two portions of Strengthening Water, his physical fitness was extremely strong.
Zhou Wen, whose overall fitness was five times that of an ordinary person, could probably carry objects weighing seven to eight hundred kilograms. His speed was about twice that of an ordinary person!
Soon, there was a large pile of trees on one side of the wooden house. These were the materials used to build the fence.
They had prepared quite a lot of materials, but they were not enough to surround all four sides. At most, they could block the side near the forest.
Zhou Wen wasn't in a hurry. Since he was going to make a fence, he had to do it well. And now, he lacked a tool-a hammer!
It was impossible to find a hammer here, not even in the helicopter that fell into the sea.
Therefore, Zhou Wen needed to make one himself. He tied a rock to a solid wooden stick and used it as a hammer.
Zhou Wen searched for a while and found a suitable stone. The stone was oval in shape and had a diameter of more than ten centimeters. It was enough.
After careful selection, Zhou Wen used the trunk of a tea tree as the material and tied the stone tightly to the trunk with a thick hemp rope.
Grabbing the trunk of the tea tree, Zhou Wen waved it twice. It weighed about four pounds.
It was just right to use it to knock on the fence stakes.
Following that, Zhou Wen only needed to pick out the wooden stakes that were suitable for the fence. He sharpened one end and drove it into the ground. The distance between them wasn't too far, so it was convenient for him to fix the woven branches with the wooden stakes.
Another important point was that before the wooden stakes were driven, they had to dig trenches in the ground as needed.
This was so that after the stakes were made, the branches that were woven into a fence could be buried underground when they were bound to the branches.
This was the only way to prevent snakes and rats from entering the fence. As for mosquitoes, they could not be stopped and would not pose too much of a threat to humans.
The cabin had a protective parachute cloth. The fence blocked poisonous snakes and wild beasts, and the cabin prevented mosquitoes from entering. With two layers of protection, the safety factor was greatly improved.
There was a wooden stake that was prepared. The side of the hut near the forest was about 15 meters long.
The wooden stakes that Zhou Wen was prepared to hit were about a meter apart. In other words, he had to hit sixteen wooden stakes to meet the requirements.
Sixteen wooden stakes took half an hour to prepare. After preparing the wooden stakes, Zhou Wen wasn't in a hurry to weave a tree branch fence.
Instead, he chose to dig a trench. After another twenty minutes, Zhou Wen dug out a fifteen-meter-long trench that was a foot deep at the spot where he was going to hit the stake.
After digging the trench, Zhou Wen began using the self-made hammer to hammer the wooden stakes in.
The soil here was relatively soft and there were very few stones. It did not take much time to hit the wooden stake.
The distance between each wooden stake was not the same, but there was not much difference. Almost all of them were within a meter to a meter.
Zhou Wen used the footstep measurement method. He hit a wooden stake five steps away, so the deviation was very small.
With the wooden stakes in place, Zhou Wen began weaving a tree branch fence. This was the most important thing.
The quality of the fence directly determined whether it could stop the invasion of poisonous snakes and wild beasts.
The density of the fence had to be controlled to a very small range. This required the branches to be woven together so that they could stick to each other without much gap.
Thankfully, Zhou Wen was strong enough. Even if the branches were bent, they would stick together under his immense strength. With the thick hemp rope in place, it was impossible for them to loosen.
Liu Rushi had woken up at some point and walked over when she saw Zhou Wen weave three tree branches.""Do you need help?"
"No need. This is hard work. You're not strong enough to do this. Why don't you go wash a pear for me?”
"After doing so much, I've sweated a lot and I'm quite thirsty. Zhou Wen said.
"Okay, I'll wash the pears for you." Liu Rushi nodded. She didn't wish to do nothing and silently accept Zhou Wen's care.
It was good to do something so that he could feel at ease.
By the time Liu Rushi returned, the four tree branches and fences were done. After eating Liu Rushi's favorite pear, Zhou Wen continued working.
Liu Rushi wiped the sweat off Zhou Wen's forehead from time to time, like a gentle wife.
When all the branches and fences were woven, Zhou Wen began to tie them up. One of them was used as a door to enter and exit. It was closed tightly without a gap. All he needed to do was cut open the rope.
"Success! You can have a good rest now." Zhou Wen tied up the last gate and revealed a bright smile.?
Liu Rushi smiled as she looked at the sturdy fence. The fence was 1.6 meters tall, so it was definitely much safer.
In the future, even if she was alone in the small house, she would not have to worry about encountering poisonous snakes.
The sky gradually darkened. Liu Rushi went to bathe while Zhou Wen started cooking. This was an essential piece of equipment!
