Fu Rui first mixed the wood ash with a certain proportion of water, then used something to filter out the impurities and gray matter.
There was no filter, and the conditions did not allow for production of a filter. Thus, Fu Rui could only use his T-shirt as a filter.
It just so happened that it had just been washed by Yuan. Thus, he could simply use it as a filter.
After this treatment, the mixture of ashes with wood and weeds became the most primitive and natural alkali liquid.
However, this wasn’t enough to make soap. The concentration of alkaline had to be increased, so Fu Rui continued to heat the mixture up. Then, he would determine if the concentration was up to standard when an egg could float in the water.
After that, he took out the lard that he had collected earlier and added it into the alkali water bit by bit. He stirred it continuously and waited until it turned into soap.
“Yuan, what’s the plant that you bite twice every morning?”
Fu Rui suddenly looked at Yuan.
Yuan was stunned. “What does Rui want that for, meow?”
“I want this thing to smell more fragrant. Do you still have it?”
“Yes!”
Yuan immediately ran back to her room and took out a small bunch of green plants.
Fu Rui squeezed the plants and squeezed the juice into the boiling mixture.
When the liquid became particularly thick, it was about time to cool it down in a mold.
By the time he was done, the sky had already darkened completely.
There were already beast-eared females in the village who used the remaining charcoal and the bow drill that Fu Rui had brought to start a fire.
Within a few minutes, the bonfire was lit.
Charcoal was much easier to burn than flammable plants. Now that the tribe had an inexhaustible source of fire, they would not catch the flu at night because of the cold.
The main dish for dinner today was fish with a side dish of berries.
The tribes who lived along the riverbank usually had sufficient food sources. As long as they used the right method, they would not starve.
Fu Rui felt that it was a pity that he could not bring back the two porcupines that he had killed today. Furthermore, there was also the brown bear. He had heard that bear paws were a very high-end ingredient. In modern times, there was no chance to taste them at all. Thus, he could not help but feel that it was a pity.
After eating and drinking to his heart’s content, Fu Rui walked towards the pool with the soap that had yet to fully solidify.
First, he washed the pond with the water from the stream. Then, he poured clean water from the stream into the pool.
Then, he stripped naked and jumped into the water. The cool stream ran over his shoulders, easing the fatigue of the day.
After soaking for a while, Yuan brought Li and Tu over.
Fu Rui was enjoying himself and did not open his eyes.
The girls took off their clothes and also sat in the water one after another.
“Oh, it’s so cold!” Yuan meowed cutely before naturally sitting on top of Tu Tu.
The two pairs of big breasts collided quietly, causing waves in the water.
“Wow, it’s so much warmer, meow ~”
Yuan giggled and began to help Tu Tu remove the dried mud on her body.
Meanwhile, Li was clearly distracted. When she raised her hand to lightly wipe her body, she would occasionally sneak a glance at Fu Rui.
No one knew what she saw, but her face gradually turned red.
Meanwhile, Tu Tu didn’t even dare to move as Fu Rui’s broad shoulders were on her left. Even though there was a short distance between them, she still felt extremely embarrassed. She was like a doll, allowing Yuan, who was above her, to constantly torment her.
In comparison, the innocent Yuan was the most open-minded.
What evil intentions could the kitten have? She just wanted to clean Sister Tu Tu’s body.
“Oh yeah, Rui, where’s that thing… what’s it called… uh, soap, meow?”
Halfway through the shower, Yuan suddenly remembered that there was something she did not use. She heard from Fu Rui that when the soap was applied on her body, not only would it smell good, but it could also clean more dirt.
Only then did Fu Rui open his eyes. His gaze paused on the naked Li before him. Then, he pointed in a direction.
“I left it there.”
Yuan immediately left the pool. The water on her body was extremely dazzling.
Fu Rui glanced to the side, and Tu Tu’s enormous and perky chest appeared to him without the slightest obstruction. He believed that so long as he wanted to, he would be able to easily grab her breasts and play with them.
However, seeing that Tu Tu was so shy that her ears were almost covering her eyes, he let go of this evil thought.
Forget it, forget it. Tu Tu seemed to be younger than Yuan. He shouldn’t harm others.
At this moment, Yuan brought over the tool that contained the soap. She then sat on top of Tu Tu and held one of her arms. After that, she rubbed the soap on Tu Tu’s arm and applied it evenly.
At this moment, Fu Rui saw two pairs of big breasts.
“Rui, is this how it’s done, meow?” Yuan was not sure if what she was doing was correct.
“Remember to wash it clean with water later. Also, be gentle when you do it. Don’t damage the epidermis too much.”
Fu Rui stared at her and explained.
“What’s an epidermis, meow?” Yuan showed her curious side again.
“It’s…” Fu Rui hesitated for a moment, thinking about what words to use to allow Yuan to understand. “It’s the outermost part of our skin. You can understand it as a very thick membrane.”
Yuan nodded her head as if she understood. Then, she asked again, “What is this membrane made of, meow?”
“…”
Fu Rui opened his mouth. This question was related to microbiology. At present, it was a part of knowledge that they could not understand at all. Even if he explained it, he would not receive any Civilization Points as a reward.
Yuan asked two more questions, as if she wanted to understand this question today.
In the end, it was Li who spoke up to help Fu Rui out of the situation. “Alright, Yuan. Do you remember what the previous witch said about you? How did you forget so quickly?”
“Meow… Don’t ask what you don’t understand. Think about it instead. Yuan remembers…”
Seeing her sister being reprimanded by Li, Tu Tu couldn’t help but feel sorry for her. Thus, she tried to smooth things over and said timidly, “It’s… it’s a little cold…”
In fact, the sky had just darkened. The ground had absorbed the heat from the sun for an entire day. Thus, the surface of the ground was now burning hot.
After sitting for a while, even the temperature of the water had risen by quite a bit. It was a very comfortable temperature.
Fu Rui didn’t expose her and smiled. “It is a bit cold.”
Then, he turned to look at Li. “Li, are you cold?”
Li cleared her throat and crossed her arms over her chest. “A… a little.”
“Then should we be like Yuan and Tu Tu, and warm up to each other?”
“Sure.”
Fu Rui was only joking around to tease this mature and charming fox-eared girl, but he didn’t expect her to take it seriously. She got up and walked to him, then held his shoulders like Yuan before sitting down.
