Chapter 108 From the Deer Pen to the House
The collection of thatch and the laying of the roof were troublesome things, and it took nearly 20 days for the two tasks to be completed.
During this period of time, senior brother and others took the time to paste a mud wall.
After the roof was built, the remaining three mud walls were completely completed in four days with many laborers working together.
The thatch laid on the roof exudes a layer of golden brilliance under the warm spring sun.
The freshly pasted mud walls are strong and thick, giving people a sense of security.
And because the mud wall has a lot of holes at a height of 1.34 meters, it can be called the deer circle of the house, and the light is very good.
Especially after lighting a few piles of fire inside and continuously smoking for more than two days, Han Cheng had the urge to drive the deer into the cave and let the people in the tribe live in the deer enclosure!
The reason why Han Cheng wanted to repair the deer enclosure so well was because of his own considerations.
One is that such a deer enclosure is not easy to damage. At the beginning of the repair, he put in more effort, and after it is built, he doesn't have to worry about it. A good living environment.
The third is that I want to practice my hands when building the deer pen, and gain some experience for the house that will start to be built this year.
After the experience of the deer circle, Han Cheng knew about the house to be built this year, and became more and more looking forward to it.
If it weren't for the fact that the height of the fence was more important than building the house, Han Cheng would have liked to start building the house immediately after the deer circle was over.
It may be that God wanted to verify whether this 'cave' built with mud and vegetation could block his own power. On the third day after the deer pen was built, it began to rain.
Wu, senior brother and the others, after discovering that it was raining, looked at the deer enclosure that they had just built with great effort, which could be called a house, with some concern.
They had the experience of sheltering from the rain under the trees, and they knew that the leaves could not cover all the rain, and the top of the deer enclosure built by the Son of God was covered with grass, so they expressed Great worry.
Han Cheng is full of confidence in the hut. It's not like he hasn't stayed in the hut in later generations.
The well-built huts can withstand heavy rainstorms in summer, and there will be no miserable scene of "the bedside house leaks and there is nothing to do, and the rain is like a hemp that has not stopped", let alone the current spring rain.
Human beings always pay more attention to what they have acquired through great efforts, and primitive people are no exception.
Han Cheng saw everyone's worry, thought for a while and called some people who wanted to go there, and they ran into the deer pen together in the rain.
The deer are not stupid. When the construction was completed at the beginning, Uncle Deer and the others refused to go into this strange cave. Now that it is raining, they went in without calling.
And it's still the kind of people who stay inside and can't even go outside in time.
The little deer has grown up a lot, but when he saw Han Cheng, he couldn't help but move towards his mother. He has a deep memory of this little two-legged beast who always competes with it for milk!
Han Cheng is not in the mood to fight for milk for the deer now, because he has already come over with a bowl and squeezed it once in the morning...
It rained in spring and the temperature was still very low, so Han Cheng made a fire in the deer enclosure to keep warm.
The lowest part of the roof from the ground is nearly 1.7 meters, and the surrounding walls are all mud walls, so there is no need to worry about the fire igniting the house.
When the fire was lit, Han Cheng didn't go to roast, but walked slowly in the deer shed with his head raised to see if there was any rain leakage.
The result was just as he thought, the grilles inside the roof were dry and there was no sign of rain leakage.
The rain that falls on the deer shed,
All slid down the thatch one by one to the ground.
Seeing Han Cheng coming, he consciously went to his wife, expecting that Uncle Lu, who could share the milk, waited for a while beside his wife who was breastfeeding the deer. Seeing that Han Cheng could not pass, he was a little anxious, so he walked Walking over with slender legs, he lowered his head, gently bit the animal skin wrapped around Han Cheng's body with his teeth, and pulled towards his wife.
Han Cheng, who understood Uncle Lu's meaning, couldn't laugh or cry. He stretched out his hands to indicate that he did not take the bowl.
Uncle Lu, who felt a little disappointed, walked aside resentfully, not wanting to pay attention to Han Cheng, an unscrupulous guy.
Wu, senior brother, and others all came, and they walked around the deer shed following Han Cheng's example, and when they saw that there was really no rain falling in, they all became very happy, because it showed that their efforts were not in vain .
Wu was different from ordinary people. After a short period of joy, he looked around this unique cave, and there was a look of thought in his eyes.
He thought of the caves where they had lived for generations.
On the top of their cave, there are several irregular holes, and the witch doesn't know whether those holes were dug by the previous clansmen, or if they already existed.
But he knew that these holes were very important.
Not only will the choking smoke released by the fire burn out through these holes, but also the outside light will come in through these holes, so that the cave will not be too dark.
Those holes are great for the Horde, but they can also be annoying.
That is, whenever it rains, water will leak into the cave.
Even with a slate cover, rainwater still flows into the cave.
When the first God Son did not come, all they could do was to carve some small ditches in the cave, so that the dripping rainwater would flow out along the ditches, but there would still be many places in the tribe Get wet and uncomfortable.
After Shenzi arrived and made pottery, when it rained again, he would use water jars and clay pots to pick it up. Compared with before, although the situation was much better, it was still troublesome after all.
Moreover, after the few light-emitting holes are covered, the light in the holes will become extremely dim.
Now Shenzi has created such a cave that is not leaking and has good light. Although it is said to be for deer to live in, it should be fine for people to live in it...
It has to be said that Wu is indeed a wise man in the tribe. When the rest of the people are simply happy that the fruits of their labor are not in vain, he has already connected it with the current situation of his tribe.
You know, Han Cheng hasn't mentioned to him about building houses to let people in the tribe move out of caves to live in. It's really rare for him to think of these things.
At night, Wu told Han Cheng what he thought, and Han Cheng was very surprised at Wu's cleverness and avant-garde.
He originally thought that it would take some talking and talking to get the people in the tribe to abandon the caves they had lived in for generations and move to a house they had never lived in before.
But he didn't expect that before he could open his mouth, Wu would already take the initiative to mention this matter to him.
Han Cheng had been thinking about it for a while, and told Wu about this matter recently, and now that Wu took the initiative to bring it up, he also said it smoothly.
After Wu Zai learned that the place where the Time Clan lived would be better than the deer circle, a sincere smile appeared on his old face.
