Chapter 693 The Southerner Who Sees Snow for the First Time

The north wind howled, and the clouds were densely covered. Looking up, the surrounding area was gray.

The bare and lifeless mountains and land, coupled with such a celestial phenomenon, make people feel very cold without the wind pouring down their necks.

After such a climate lasted for a period of time, amidst the cheers of the minors, the snow mixed with the wind had already fallen from the sky, landed on the ground and jumped around.

After the snow fell for a while, it turned into snowflakes flying in the wind.

The heavy snow fell, announcing that the winter of the Year of the Blue Sparrow has arrived, and this year is drawing to a close. At the same time, it also announces that many things cannot be done. Whether it is a tribe that is ready for the arrival of winter or not, it must be done with A variety of mentality, to meet a strong winter.

A new earthen wall outside the Qingque Tribe looks very majestic.

After a year of hard work by the members of the tribe, the outer wall was basically completed.

Eldest brother and the others stood in the snowstorm, looking at the gap of about 20 meters to the east, full of regret.

In another seven or eight days, the last of these can be finished, and God just started snowing at this time.

Once the heavy snow falls, if you want to build this gap, you will have to wait for the next spring.

Looking at the not-so-long gap, many people in the tribe felt more and more uncomfortable the more they looked at it.

If it is not known that the wall built in such weather is not very strong, maybe someone will brave the snow to build it at this time, and plug this last gap.

This is really an existence that can kill obsessive-compulsive disorder.

Fortunately, Han Cheng himself did not have this excellent quality, so he was able to look at the senior brother who was tortured by this gap and others who were scratching their ears and cheeks in a relatively relaxed mood.

It's snowing, and these people in the tribe can finally relax completely.

Han Cheng decided to give the tribe members a relatively long vacation, let everyone have a good rest, and then start to do some work that can be done in winter.

For example, quarrying stones and transporting them to the tribe, such as burning previously cut and dried branches to make charcoal.

It is necessary to mine and transport stones, because the wall has almost been built. In the coming year, after the busy spring plowing, the gap will be repaired, and the building of the house can start.

Taking advantage of the relatively free time at this time, mining more stones will make it much easier next year, and there will be sledges after snowfall, so it will be more convenient to transport stones.

This is the second time Little Pea has experienced winter. He spent the last winter completely in his infancy, so strictly speaking, this is the first time he has seen ice and snow.

The little guy who saw Snowflake was very excited. After looking up for a while, he took a not-so-steady step, slapped his palms indiscriminately, and jumped around the yard like a merry-go-round.

Sometimes snowflakes got into his neck, and he would shrink his neck and wink his eyes, but this didn't stop the little guy from throwing flowers.

Quite a bit of the excitement that southerners felt when they saw ice and snow for the first time after they came to the north.

In the courtyard, apart from Little Peas, there were also many other children having fun. Many children laughed, jumped, shouted, and forcibly turned the Qingque tribe in winter into a toad hole after the summer rain, giggling and wow screaming all at once.

Wrapped in thick tiger-skin clothes, the witch looked very classy. Looking at this scene in the yard, he couldn't see his eyes with a smile.

When people are old, what they like most is to see such a scene.

The children and grandchildren are around their knees, and they are still eating fat one by one. No matter how they look at it, it makes people feel happy.

The Tongshan residential area to the west of the Qingque tribe, although the heavy snow fell a little later, was also caught in the snowflakes at this time.

On the stone wall, Junior Brother Sha, who was wrapped in tanned soft fur, looked at the surrounding scenery with pride and regret.

His pride comes from the houses and walls built by them.

There used to be nothing here, but they built so many things here in the past half a year.

What makes him regret is that because of the defector Meng, it was delayed for a while, so that not much land has been reclaimed here.

Thinking of the people who defected from Meng's tribe, Junior Brother Sha turned his gaze to the copper mountain not too far from the courtyard, where the defector is still there.

After several successive excavations and mining, there are now two mines on the copper mountain.

One mine is very shallow, only about two meters, and the other is deeper, about seven or eight meters.

At this time, there was a clanging sound coming from the mine.

It was snowing heavily outside, the light was dim, and the light inside the mine was even darker.

A figure was wielding a hammer in the mine at this time, tapping the chisel in his hand one after another.

The body of this figure is covered with dirty fur, the loose hair is connected with the beard that grows randomly, and the dust and dirt on the face make it almost impossible to see the skin on the face.

This person is the defector Meng who was punished to mine copper mines in Copper Mountain forever.

The inside of the mine is extremely dark, but for Meng who has lived in this mine for a long time, such darkness will not cause too much disturbance to him. Because his eyes had already adapted to the dim light.

After clanging and chiseling for a while, some ore was removed, and after putting the ore into a basket, the unrecognizable Meng stopped.

He walked towards the entrance of the cave, and some snowflakes came in from the entrance of the cave, fell on his palm which could not distinguish any color, and melted immediately.

Before, there would be people outside looking at him, but now there is no one outside.

But Meng didn't have the slightest thought of running away.

Because he didn't have any food, there was no way to survive in such weather.

Meng is very regretful now, especially when thinking about this time last year, when he lived in a warm room with a kang, his guts turned green.

This kind of regret has started since he was digging copper in Tongshan.

It turns out that after this kind of seemingly insignificant work is done, it will be such a torture!

This is much heavier than the previous work of moving stones.

He needs ten baskets full of copper ore every day to be able to rest.

These ten baskets of ore must be filled, this is his self-consciousness after being hungry twice.

Today he had filled ten ore baskets with ore, but after pausing here for a while, he took the hammer and chisel and began to dig the ore again.

It's not because he's not tired, or because he wants to contribute more to the tribe, but because it's too cold to stop...
