Chu Feng repaired the holes reserved on the stone wall into a square shape, the size of a small wooden bench, which was used to build a chimney.

If he wanted to build a fireplace inside the shelter, it was important to exhaust the smoke, so he planned to build a chimney outside the stone wall corresponding to the fireplace.

The role of the chimney is very important, when the fireplace is burning wood, it will heat the air to form hot air.

Using the principle that hot air rises and smoke is lighter than air, the resulting smoke is discharged by hot air from the top outlet of the chimney, and fresh cold air from the outside is swept in from the entrance.

This can increase the oxygen required for wood combustion, so that the wood burns more fully and the fire will be more vigorous.

Of course, the most important thing is to prevent carbon monoxide poisoning.

Chu Feng got up, found stones of similar size around him, moved a lot of clay, and began to build chimneys.

The construction of the chimney is simple, first using stone and clay to build a stone platform on the ground, and when it is flush with the opening reserved for the stone wall, the hollow chimney pipe is built.

The construction of the pipeline is naturally still made of stone, fixed with clay, and piled up layer by layer, because there is a stone wall as a support, this time Chu Feng has to do a good job of the chimney at one time.

Then 21 When the fireplace is set up and the wood is burned, the heat will easily dry the clay and stabilize the chimney.

After a long period of burning firewood, the clay can easily be burned into a semi-pottery shape.

After more than half an hour, Chu Feng moved the wooden table, stood on it and continued to build the chimney, and began the final finishing work.

When the chimney was completed, it was as tall as the walls of the new shelter, nearly two meters, and in a narrow shape with a lower width and an upper width.

“The next step is to build a fireplace.” Chu Feng came down from the wooden table, his fingers rubbing the clay in the gaps in his fingernails.

When he came to the new shelter, the girl had already moved everything she could move, leaving only some large items that were too heavy to move.

Yun Xin sorted out the clay pots on the ground, turned his head and smiled and asked, “Is Chu Feng busy?” ”

The joy of the new home, the girl has always had a smile on her face, and the new shelter has become more and more homely.

“Well, the chimney is ready.” Chu Feng smiled lightly.

“Then help move the bed over and then I can clean it up.” Yun Xin smiled and looked at the things on the ground of the new shelter, and couldn’t help but want to sort them all out.

“Okay.” Chu Feng smiled and nodded in response, turning around and going to the old shelter.

After a while, he came out carrying the wooden bed, and the girl reached out to support him.

“Fortunately, this door is big enough.” Chu Feng slowly pushed the large bed through the arched stone door and moved it all the way to the corner of the wall.

“Chu Feng, make a wooden shelf, clay pots and water tanks on the ground like this, I think it occupies too much space.” Yun Xin held the small water tank and slowly moved to the position by the wall.

The ground is full of bottles, cans and cans, including bamboo tubes and wooden barrels.

“Yes.” Chu Feng nodded in agreement, the new home was indeed missing a wooden shelf.

The utensils containing the food in the clay pots must be lifted off the ground, otherwise there will be many ants, centipedes and other insects crawling by.

“Okay.” Yun Xin smiled and immediately packed up the other things.

“Then there’s the fireplace.” Chu Feng turned around and came to the location of the hole in the stone wall, and when he looked up, he could only see the clay that had not yet dried up on the inner wall of the chimney.

In the ground corresponding to the hole, there is also a pit remaining, and below it is the rubble buried before the foundation was laid.

Chu Feng planned the location, laid a layer of clay on the ground, and began to build a fireplace with stones.

He intended to build a fireplace half a meter wide and a meter long, which would also be used for cooking and for heating in winter.

Stone and clay were laid layer after layer, and in the middle of the ground, a gap of about thirty centimeters was reserved, and according to the way the stone door was built, a semicircular arched door hole was built, which was used to add firewood.

More than half an hour had passed, and the three walls of the fireplace had been laid, and the height was about sixty centimeters.

The whole fireplace is still not topped, which is also the most difficult place, because there is a hole left for the steel pot.

Chu Feng pondered for a moment, turned and left the shelter, and searched for it in the pile of rocks.

“Chu Feng, what are you looking for?” Yun Xin walked out of the shelter and asked curiously.

She had just laid everything out, and the wooden table, too, had been scrubbed and pulled in, and placed in the middle of the new shelter, where the two of them would eat from now on.

“Find a few flat stones.” Chu Feng answered casually, his eyes scanning the pile of rocks, and from time to time he flipped the stones pressed below with his hands.

Yun Xin helped rummage through it, and after a while found a flat stone in the pile of rocks not far away.

She hurriedly shouted, “Chu Feng, you see that this piece is big and flat, can you?” ”

Chu Feng stepped forward, saw the stone and smiled lightly, “Very good, just enough to cover the roof of the furnace.” ”

It took nearly twenty minutes to search, and finally found a few flat stones, the largest of which was half a meter long.

The two laboriously transported the stones back to the new shelter.

Chu Feng carefully placed the two largest stones on the stove walls on both sides, leaving a hole in the middle, and then used the rest of the stones to superimpose them with clay, leaving only a square notch.

He used clay to mend the square notch into a round shape, the size of the bottom of the steel pot, so that when the water was burned over the fire, there would be no smoke leaking.

Chu Feng thought about it and used clay to pinch a 660 flat round lid, which was used to cover the circular furnace hole, and cover it when he was not cooking, so that no smoke would run into the shelter.

When he was ready to cook this evening, he first fired this round lid into a semi-ceramic shape, and then repaired a kiln and re-made a more durable lid when he was free.

“Are you done?” Yun Xin walked over with water.

Chu Feng took a sip from the pottery bowl, “Well, try it on the night to see if you can use it.” ”

“It looks pretty good, it should work.”

Yun Xin looked at the fireplace and couldn’t help but ask sideways, “Chu Feng, when did your hands-on ability become so strong?” ”

“I’ve always been so strong, you just didn’t find out before.” The corners of Chu Feng’s mouth were slightly raised, and there was a snort on his face.

Yun Xin was amused, and playfully laughed: “Your face has also become thicker.” ”

“Hahaha, let’s go, let’s go pick some wormwood.” Chu Feng laughed a few times and prepared to go out to the jungle to find herbs to do insect repellent dispersion.

Yesterday Chu Feng slept very shallowly, and the cries of mosquitoes echoed overhead and next to his ears, and he was woken up several times in the middle.
