Chapter 225 Avoid Water Beads
After dinner, seeing that everyone was there, He Qianqian organized the males to process the silk cocoons together.
The silkworm breeding technique is a gift from the system. It is a reward for giving birth to a snake cub, or more precisely, giving birth to Ye Fengyao, a female cub with red and black rings.
Sericulture has very strict environmental requirements.
Since she had the planting space, she learned to grow mulberry leaves and raise silkworms in the space.
The first and second attempts were basically complete failures, with nothing achieved.
After summarizing her experience, He Qianqian achieved some success in her third attempt of raising silkworms.
Then we expanded the scale and had a fruitful fourth time.
Several large piles of silk cocoons were harvested and stored in a warehouse where time stood still.
He Qianqian plans to do two things with these cocoons.
One is to twist silk to weave cloth, and the other is to make silk quilts.
As strength lies in numbers, everyone helped her to deal with it.
Li Yan and Ling Ye, who often use spinning wheels to spin cotton cloth, were mainly responsible for twisting the silk this time.
Xiao Bo, Xiaobai, Jianze, Minggongyao and other six people were unable to do delicate work, so they were responsible for peeling the cocoons.
The silk is peeled off piece by piece and stacked to make silkworm hats, which are then hung in the sun to dry.
Then the silk is drawn and layer by layer, and finally it is made into a silk mat.
Before dinner, the six young people finally made the first thin double silk fabric.
Put a cotton quilt cover on the silk quilt, and it becomes a quilt that can be covered. The quilt is light and thin, suitable for use in seasons that are not too cold.
The young orcs quickly reached a consensus on who should use the first set of silk quilts first.
That is to let Jianwei use it first.
He Qianqian held the mulberry silk quilt and presented it to Jian.
Jianze said, "Father, come and take a look at the quilt we made. How does it compare to the one Qianqian gave you before?"
"It looks good to me. How can the quilts you learn to make from Qianqian be bad?"
Jianwei touched the quilt. It was very soft and warm, and very close fitting, just right for covering when it wasn't too cold.
If he hadn't seen it with his own eyes, he wouldn't have believed that it was done by a few big-handed males.
As expected, following He Qianqian, everything is possible.
Jianze saw that his father was very satisfied, so he said, "Then this set will be given to you."
"For me to use?"
Jianwei did not participate in the production process of the silk quilt.
Because the whole workshop was very messy, with stoves and boiling water inside, the cubs were not allowed to get close. Jian was responsible for taking good care of the cubs and taking them to the other side to play.
However, Jian Yu was always very curious and would watch them work from afar from time to time, but he really couldn't help at all.
I didn't expect that the silk quilt that I made with so much effort would be given to him first.
Ming Gongyao said, "You can use them. We will make more quilts to ensure that everyone has one."
He Qianqian also said:
"Father, we were not skilled in making the first bed. Some parts are thick and some are thin. It is definitely not the best. Are you disgusted by it?"
"I don't mind, I don't mind." Jian Yu quickly accepted it.
He asked again with concern:
"Qianqian, you just gave birth to a baby, why don't you take a few more days to rest? There is always work to do."
He Qianqian said: "Actually, I didn't do any work today. I just talked."
She glanced at the cubs, who were playing with building blocks and crystal cores. Jian took very good care of them.
It feels more reassuring to leave the cub to his care than to Xiaobai and Xiao Bo.
It just so happened that she and her beastly husbands wanted to leave for a night.
Because she received the water-repellent beads from the system, she had always wanted to practice them with the beastly husbands.
"Father, a few beastmen and I want to go to Yingxin Lake together. Please take good care of Zhezhe and the others tonight."
"Okay. Yingxin Lake is where Minggong Yao lives. You and he have just become a couple, so your family should go there to play for a few days." Jian Yao agreed readily.
He can't help with anything else, he came here just to take care of the cubs.
The kids are very well behaved and like him as their grandpa, and he takes good care of them.
After settling everything, He Qianqian and the four beast husbands waved goodbye to the cubs and the single beasts, and went to Yingxin Lake alone to relax.
Xiaobai, Xiaobin, Xiaobo and Xiaozhong, although a little disappointed, soon started making silk quilts in the dark again.
When I thought about using the silk quilt I made myself soon, I wanted to make it as soon as possible, even if I had to give up sleeping.

Arriving at the lake, He Qianqian took out the water-repellent beads. The system gave her a total of 5 water-repellent beads.
Ye Qianmu is a very good swimmer. He can easily reach large lakes on land, even those that are very deep. However, he may need to avoid water beads in the deep sea.
But Ming Gong Yao is a mermaid and does not need any water-repellent beads.
All in all, He Qianqian and the other four beastly husbands got exactly one each.
He Qianqian distributed the water-repellent beads to Li Yan, Lingye and Jianze, and each of them wore one around their neck.
She herself also wore a water-repellent bead.
"The water-repellent beads can keep us out of water. We don't need to rely on mermaid bubbles. We won't suffocate in the deep water of the lake. Shall we each go in and try it out?"
"Qianqian, you just gave birth to a baby, so I'd better use the mermaid bubble to carry you to prevent you from catching a cold." Minggong Yao was worried.
He Qianqian refused:
"I have a third-level wood-type ability to protect me, and I have very fast self-healing ability. Besides, I have fully recovered after three days of sleep, so I can go into the water."
Ming Gongyao had no choice but to follow her, holding her hand, and slowly walked towards the lake.
Li Yan and others also walked towards the lake.
Wherever it goes, a waterproof shield is automatically formed around the body, the water automatically separates, and even the clothes, pants and hair on the body will not be wetted by the water.
Even until the water reached their heads, they still felt that they were breathing normally and could even speak. They were close to each other and could hear each other's voices.
You can also use your hands to grab the surrounding fish or aquatic plants at will, without any barrier between you and the water.
The water-repellent beads are indeed a treasure.
Ming Gongyao led them to dive slowly all the way down to adapt to the water pressure of different water layers. The bottom of the lake was 50 meters below the water surface.
They found that the water-repellent beads were comparable to the mermaid bubbles in the Hades Palace. Not only could they avoid water and provide air, but they could also automatically help the wearer bear the water pressure.
From now on, as long as you bring the water-repellent beads, you can easily visit the underwater palace without the help of mermaids, and come to the bottom of the lake from land as if walking on flat ground.
At this point, the racial gap and ecological barrier between the beastmen on land and the beastman Ming Gong Yao was completely narrowed.
The moon was already high in the sky, the sky was dark, and it was pitch black underwater.
Li Yan and others listened to the movements of He Qianqian and Ming Gongyao and slowly dived behind them.
One hour later, the view suddenly became clear.
Large areas of coral and colorful water plants are right before your eyes.
A closer look reveals that these colorful water plants can also emit fluorescence. The entire area is full of changing and mysterious colors.
"This is the underwater palace, and the brightest place in the middle is our home." Minggong Yao said.
Jianze, Li Yan and Lingye swam freely in the garden like mermaids.
Waving their arms, twisting their waists and hips, or swinging their legs, they shuttle through the garden created by corals and water plants.
Gradually approaching the brightest place.
There are several luminous pearls embedded around the huge coral cave, shining as brightly as the lanterns in front of the cabin.
