Zhou Wen didn't hear Liu Rushi's murmur. Otherwise, he would most likely have knocked Liu Rushi on the head and righteously told her that he wasn't a man who didn't mean it.
Instead, he was an upright man who said whatever he wanted and did not forget his original intentions!
The hole in the thatched cottage had to be dug relatively deep. Furthermore, in order to prevent Liu Rushi from enduring the unpleasant smell while relieving herself, Zhou Wen dug the hole more than a meter deep.
A rectangular hole was dug, about 50 centimeters wide and 1.2 meters long.
However, Zhou Wen didn't stop there. Instead, he chose to continue modifying the pit.
He dug out a slope at the bottom of the pit, reaching an angle of 60 degrees, and then continued to dig deeper.
There was an advantage to doing so. The filth would fall down the designed slope. Zhou Wen dug a sizable cave to prevent the smell from wafting out.
Following that, Zhou Wen climbed out of the pit and panted heavily. He took the cold water Liu Rushi handed him and drank a few bowls.
The sky was already dark, and he had to hurry. Fortunately, he had already prepared a tree branch fence. As long as he fixed the tree branch fence and covered the hole with a wooden board, the simple toilet in the wild would be successfully built.
Before fixing the tree branches and fences, he had to make suitable wooden planks first.
The time needed to make the wooden planks was considerable. This was because Zhou Wen didn't have a chopper. He only had a military machete, so his efficiency would be greatly reduced.
However, this wasn't a problem for Zhou Wen. He began choosing wooden sticks that were more than 1.2 meters long. His original plan was to cut the wooden sticks into wooden blocks.
Now, he changed his mind. He only needed to process the two sides of the round wooden stick and flatten the protruding arc.
This way, it wouldn't take much effort. He could finish it very quickly. Not only was it efficient, but it was also very sturdy.
The wooden stick Zhou Wen chose was very tough and strong.
The flattened wooden sticks were placed to the side. There weren't many wooden sticks needed. After all, the pit Zhou Wen designed was only about 50 centimeters wide.
The wooden sticks were placed above the pit, leaving an empty space of more than ten centimeters in the middle. Zhou Wen held the stone hammer and smashed it on the wooden sticks one after another until all six wooden sticks sank into the ground and stopped moving.
Zhou Wen began building a three-sided tree branch fence. After spending some time, he fixed the back three tree branch fences and tied a simple fence roof at the top. Zhou Wen found some leaves and stacked them on top.
Finally, Zhou Wen used a thin hemp rope to bind and secure it. This was to prevent the wind from blowing the leaves off, preventing it from being used to prevent rain.
After doing all of this, Zhou Wen stretched his body in satisfaction. He tried standing in the latrine that had just been built and realized that it was very stuffy.
Zhou Wen walked out of the latrine and looked around. He was thinking about how to make the latrine airy.
Looking at the three fences, his eyes suddenly lit up. Perhaps he could dig a hole about a foot deep on both sides of the latrine.
He also added a self-made fan blade at the entrance of the cave!
In this way, if there was a sea breeze, even if he was using the toilet, he would feel very cool instead of being as stuffy as he was now.
Zhou Wen did as he thought. He didn't like people who were sloppy.
The sky was almost completely dark. He had to hurry!
He chose the lightest tree among the trees to be used as the fan blades.
The fan blades had to be light and thin. Only a thin piece of wood could make the sea breeze blow and have the effect of a fan.
Liu Rushi wiped Zhou Wen's sweat and said softly,""Zhou Wen, aren't you going to rest? The toilet can be done tomorrow. There's no hurry.”
"I have things to do tomorrow. Let's finish the toilet today so that we don't have to process it tomorrow. I don't like such trouble.”
"Only one side of the tree branch fence has been built. We have to finish the other three sides tomorrow to prevent poisonous snakes and wild beasts from entering, especially poisonous snakes.”
"That thing is very ferocious. Once it lurks in the courtyard and is not discovered, it is very easy for an accident to happen.”
"There is no poisonous snake serum on this uninhabited island. If I am bitten, I'm afraid there will be a big problem.”Zhou Wen said.?
"Alright then, continue. I'll get you a bowl of water.”Liu Rushi said.
"Okay, I'm just thirsty!" Zhou Wen didn't refuse.?
When he heard Liu Rushi mention drinking water, he looked at the open fire pit and smiled bitterly. It seemed like he had something to do tomorrow.
Because no one could tell when it would rain. There was no weather forecast here!
Therefore, Zhou Wen decided to build a simple kitchen before building the three fences tomorrow.
If it rained in the future and there was no fire to cook, that would not do.
Since he had the conditions, Zhou Wen didn't wish to eat raw meat like a savage.
After making thin pieces of wood, Zhou Wen began using the military machete to carve the central shaft of the fan blade.
This was a necessary item. Without the central axis to fix the wood piece, it was impossible to make the fan blade!
The central axis was an extremely delicate job. It was not that easy and required a lot of time.
When the sky completely darkened, Zhou Wen finished the central axis and placed the wood piece on it. He didn't continue working.
It was getting late and the food in his stomach had already been digested. It was time to prepare dinner.
The dinner was sumptuous. Zhou Wen used the mountain rat meat that he had smoked for a day to cut it into pieces before using an iron pot to cook a bowl of delicious preserved mountain rat meat.
They each had a bottle of Eight Treasures Porridge and were eating happily.
He didn't need to eat too much for dinner. That would put a heavy burden on his digestive organs. He only needed to eat 70% full.
After eating, Liu Rushi took a luminous stone to bathe. Zhou Wen rested for a moment before opening holes on both sides of the latrine.
When Liu Rushi returned, Zhou Wen only cut a hole and tested its size before continuing to polish it.
As the fan blades he made couldn't fit in, he could only continue cutting the hole until the fan blades could pass through without any obstruction. Only then did Zhou Wen stop.
"You've been tired all day. It's time to take a shower and rest. There's no end to things. Can't you do it tomorrow?”Liu Rushi said.
"Alright, I'll go take a shower. The three luminous stones can be placed in the cabin, bathroom, and toilet respectively.”Zhou Wen said.?
"I'll listen to you. I'll place the luminous stone tomorrow.”Liu Rushi nodded.
Zhou Wen turned around and walked towards the pool. With a luminous stone in hand, he began bathing with the light from the luminous stone.
He was very satisfied with the latrine he designed. If it was in ancient times, he would definitely be called a master!
The latrine would be completed tomorrow, and Liu Rushi would no longer have to run to a remote corner every day. This was specially designed for Liu Rushi!
