Chapter 9 Introduction to Mental Power
I saw that the shoes made by Ye Ya and Mu Shi were all the same size as hers. Although they looked crooked, they were only the size she could wear.
Lin Yan held his forehead and sighed, "The straw sandals can be made larger or smaller. You can adjust them according to the size of your feet."
Yeya immediately asked: "How to adjust it?" He followed Lin Yan's instructions exactly and made it exactly the same.
Lin Yan thought for a while, then started again, teaching them step by step.
You can use more cattails for the shoe soles and make them larger.
After this teaching, Mu Shi seemed to suddenly have an enlightenment, and immediately said: "If there are enough cattails, can we make a big one?"
He stretched out his hands and gestured with excitement.
Lin Yan nodded, "Yes, it can be made larger. Instead of making uppers, it can be made into a large piece. Well, that thing should be called a mat."
"What is a mat?" Ye Ya asked curiously, moving his hands non-stop.
Lin Yan walked around and made some gestures, "Use cattail grass to weave such a large mat and spread it on the ground. You can lie down or sit on it. If you put it in the cave, you don't need to get soil. You can also use it on the cave wall."
Stick the mats up..."
The more she talked, the more excited she became. Why hadn't she thought of it? Mats had many uses.
As Lin Yan thought about it, Mu Shi and Ye Ya were stunned. They never expected that she could think of so many things.
However, she is right, mats are indeed versatile.
The three of them thought about it for a while and were very motivated.
I didn't feel hungry, so I kept working until the sun was setting and didn't stop.
When Huahong and Ye Zi came back and saw them working intently, they were very curious and couldn't understand what they were doing for a long time.
When they saw the results of Lin Yan and the others in one afternoon, including several pairs of crooked straw sandals of different sizes, and the explanations given by the three of them, they were also excited.
Cattails are everywhere, so finding them is easy.
There are two more people in the straw sandal knitting team.
The five of them continued working for a while under the light of the fire. They were worried that it would be too late and the light of the fire would attract animals, so they had to stop.
Before going to bed, everyone is thinking that they must get up early to weave straw mats tomorrow.
Although stone slabs are easy to use, they are inconvenient and heavy to move. Straw mats are different. They can be big or small and can be carried around easily.
Especially the wonderful function of straw sandals, which can protect the feet.
With excitement and excitement, he fell into a deep sleep.
When Lin Yan opened his eyes the next day, it was already bright and the sun was rising very high.
Maybe I was tired yesterday and slept too deeply.
When she got up and walked out of the cave, she saw many people gathered in front of her house.
Lin Yan looked around quietly. Everyone was busy wrestling with the cattails in their hands. There were twelve people, eight of whom she had never seen before.
Walking to Hua Hong, Lin Yan asked in a sweet voice, "Mom, who are these people and where do they come from?"
I guessed that it must be a neighbor who lives in this area. In the past few days, her house has been making fire and making straw sandals. It is so loud that it is difficult not to attract people's attention.
Sure enough, I heard Hua Hong say: "They all live in this area, not far from our home. This is a blue flower, this is a red flower..."
They are either flowers or grass, both are women, and they all look younger than Hua Hong.
Everyone smiled at Lin Yan without hesitation, with a simple and honest smile.
Lin Yan confirmed that they came from five families and lived less than 20 meters away from her house. They were usually busy leaving early in the morning and coming back late at night, so they rarely met each other.
When the fire was lit at night, someone noticed it and observed it for two days before coming over to inquire.
Huacao didn't mind at all and enthusiastically promoted the wonderful functions of the fire to them, and also recommended straw shoes and straw mats.
The Ye Zi family also helped out.
Thus, the current scene emerged.
They looked at Lin Yan with joy and joy in their eyes.
Such a smart little boy is the sun god's blessing to the tribe.
Lin Yan smiled sheepishly and asked them to busy themselves. He ate a red apple, boiled hot water to drink, and then began to study her straw sandals.
She wanted to make thick-soled straw sandals, but she was too busy knitting straw mats yesterday to take care of them.
With more people, there is more power, and news spreads faster. When Lin Yan finally made a three-layer straw sandal, he tried it on his feet and found that it was easy to wear. The thick sole was indeed much more comfortable.
By this time, her name had spread throughout the Sun Tribe. Except for those who were out hunting, everyone was curious and came to Lin Yan's house one after another.
The house was very lively on this day, with people coming and going.
Lin Yan stopped knitting straw sandals and sat under the shade of a tree, waiting for people to see her and ask various questions.
She smiled brightly, talked to everyone, and took the trouble to ask each other's names.
I finally met other people in the Sun Tribe. I no longer meet the same people every day.
Although everyone looked the same, with dark skin, cracked and rough skin, wrapped in leaves, and pure primitive savages, Lin Yan was also very happy.
A preliminary count showed that there were 324 people coming, and all of them were women, ranging in age.
Among them, the repetition rate of names is extremely high, and there are twenty-five named Honghua.
They are all simple and kind, with no calculations or interests in their eyes, but with sincerity and goodwill.
Lin Yan thought that savages lived a simple life and had no other thoughts. They were busy stuttering every day. They had no other thoughts and just wanted to survive. This is human instinct.
After initially getting to know the people in the tribe, Lin Yan received great appreciation.
From that day on, more and more people came looking for her.
Whenever I have a problem that I can't figure out, the first thing I think of subconsciously is to talk to Lin Yan.
Lin Yan's calves are short and his freedom is limited, but he is very happy to answer people's questions.
In just ten days, every house in the Sun Tribe lit a fire, and people began to eat cooked food, put on straw sandals, and spread out straw mats.
An eight-year-old girl came to Lin Yan with a straw mat she had knitted.
Lin Yan was startled when he saw the straw mat in her hand.
This girl came to me to solve my doubts a few days ago, her name is Cao Zhi.
At that time, I felt that grass branches were very spiritual, so I mentioned by the way that there are many ways to weave cattails. In addition to simply interweaving horizontally and vertically, you can also use a few more grasses, or change the steps of interweaving horizontally and vertically.
After only a few days, Cao Zhi understood it thoroughly.
The straw mats she weaves are made by twisting the cattail grass into thin ropes, which can be thick or thin. The straw mats she weaves are more delicate and dense.
Lin Yan praised: "Cao Zhi, you are so smart to think of making it up like this. It looks better and is more useful."
Caozhi smiled sheepishly, "Really?"
"Of course it's true. You did a good job. You can think of other ways to weave more patterns in the future."
Cao Zhi was affirmed and encouraged, and smiled even more happily.
That night, Lin Yan finally thought of going to the Science and Technology Museum, but he had been too busy recently to even bother to go in.
Maybe it's because I got busy, and my small body couldn't bear the fatigue. I was always sleepy and slept a little too much.
As soon as I came in, I heard Fat Bao's voice.
"Ten days ago, your mental power reached R level."
