"I'll have a drink first. Maybe you're right. The climate here may be so changeable." Xu Yi has drunk all the water he took out, so he is very thirsty now.

There was water on the table, so Xu Yi took a few drinks directly.

"Comfortable." Xu Yi wiped the water stains on his mouth, and then took off his coat.

"How's the pulp?" Xu Yi asked Luke when he saw that Luke had dried the grapes. After all, the whole morning had passed.

"The water has evaporated a lot, and the pulp is getting thicker and thicker. If you cook it again, you'll dry it." Lu Ke said. After all, she doesn't know what degree to get.

"I'll have a look," Xu Yi said, and then went over to have a look.

The pulp was really thick. Xu Yi stirred it with a stick, and then immediately said, "that's almost it. You can start making paper."

Then Xu Yi fetched a piece of water and added it to the pottery jar. Immediately, he took out the big firewood to reduce the fire.

"OK, what should we do now?" Lu Ke was still looking forward to it. With paper, she wouldn't have to suffer when it was convenient. She had been looking forward to it for a long time.

"Take the rice dumpling leaf mat, we spread the paper pulp on it, and then make it even, and then dry it." Xu Yi explained that this process is not very difficult, and his practice is relatively primitive.

The paper produced in this way is naturally very different from the paper of modern technology.

Whether flexibility or delicacy, nature is relatively poor.

"Is it so simple?" Lu Ke asked incredulously.

"Simplicity is simple, but it's not easy to spread it flat and even. It's a fine job." Xu Yi moved all the things on the table, and then took a piece of Zongye mat and spread it on it.

Then Xu Yi took a pottery bowl, filled a bowl and poured it on the palm leaf mat.

"I cut this bamboo last night to flatten the pulp." Xu Yi took a bamboo and handed it to Luke. He also took one himself.

Xu Yi took the bamboo and pushed the paper pulp. Lu Ke watched from the side.

"That's it, but it's not so easy to make it thin and uniform. You see, it's not uniform. It's thick, and it's too thin over there." Xu Yi said helplessly.

"Let me get it. You can boil some boiled water for lunch." Lu Ke started.

Xu Yi nodded. He felt that Lu Ke's work was much better than his own.

After Xu Yi fetched some water to boil, Xu Yi fetched some cold water and washed himself.

Day, it's so hot that I feel like I'm in a stove. If you don't wash one, you'll feel uncomfortable.

After coming out, Xu Yi found that he didn't move a few times and his back was a little wet again.

"Damn it, how can it be so hot." Xu Yi complained. He went to the earth stove, filled the boiled water, and then burned some. After all, he had to carry the rest of the flax back in the afternoon.

"Today's weather is really abnormal." Lu Ke wiped the sweat on his forehead and cheeks and prepared to take a cold bath later.

"Well, Xu Yi, do you think it's thin enough?" Lu Ke glanced at Xu Yi.

Xu Yi took a glass of water and handed it to Luke, then took a look at Luke's flattened pulp.

"Awesome, dexterity is awesome. It's already very thin, much thinner than I expected." Xu Yi gave Lu Ke a thumbs up and said in admiration.

"Don't praise me so much. I'm embarrassed." Lu Ke said, and then drank water.

"If you dry it a little, it will dry. When you dry it, you can tear it off to see the effect." Xu Yi put this on the edge of the greenhouse, where the sun won't shine directly. If exposed to the sun, the paper will become too hard.

"Let's have lunch first. When we have lunch, the paper will dry." Xu Yi said, looking forward to the paper.

Lu Ke nodded. She already knew how to do it. Now, it depends on the effect of paper making.

They ate some dried meat with boiling water.

After lunch, Xu Yi picked up the brown mat.

"It's dry. Try to tear it off." Xu Yi folded the corner.

Xu Yi tore the paper off smoothly, and a yellowish paper was torn off by Xu Yi.

"Successful, we have made paper." Xu Yi said happily, looking at the big paper in his hand.

Lu Ke was also smiling. Unexpectedly, he and Xu Yi made the paper.

Xu Yi folded the paper and cut it into eight small pieces of paper with a dagger.

"Come on, try it. It feels good. It's very soft. There's no problem when it's toilet paper." Xu Yi handed Lu Ke a piece.

"66666, I really made the paper, and it doesn't look very wrong."

"That's because the fiber of flax rod debris is relatively thin, which is suitable for making high-grade paper."

"The most important thing is Lu Ke's last step. If it is not spread evenly, the paper will be thick and hard."

"I really admire Xu Yi. Although papermaking is not very difficult, they are the only ones who make paper in such a short time."

"I'm really at ease. I'm still making paper here. Isn't it good to go hunting in broad daylight."

"Tut Tut, catch a paper stick alive. Now, the points of other groups are only more than 30 points at most. Is it easy to use so hard?"

"Such people want to go and can't hold on for a day, but they think they can spend 500 days easily."

"It's estimated that other groups will envy it if they know. After all, they are using leaves and branches."

"Anyway, if I were you, I wouldn't be as good as Xu Yi."

"What's wrong with improving the quality of life? Do you have to live like a savage?"

"Don't you live in the wilderness just to make your life better and worse? What's the meaning of getting worse and worse?"

"Knowledge changes not only fate, but also life. I'm much easier now."

Lu Ke continued to spread the pulp, while Xu Yi went to carry all the flax back.

At more than three o'clock, Xu Yi carried all the flax back.

With so much flax, I think it should be enough to weave a long rope long enough and thick enough.

Then these flax poles can be used to make new paper.

"Xu Yi, take a rest. It's too hot today." Lu Ke handed Xu Yi a bamboo tube. The bamboo tube was soaked in water, so it was cool.

Xu Yi took a sip and felt cool.

But the next second, Xu Yi's heart pumping.

PS: this chapter was released incorrectly. It became chapter 175 at the end of this chapter, but I changed the content. It's OK to read it normally. The chapter name hasn't been changed. Please note that I'll find the editor next Monday.
