Chu Feng put down the chopsticks and pottery bowl in his hand and couldn’t help but burp.

He turned his head and whispered, “Yun Xin, don’t weave the rope today, make cement, just do what you were taught before.” ”

“But Chu Feng, what do we do without a water tank?” Yun Xin asked softly, the water tanks were all washed away by the flash flood, and the new water tanks had not yet had time to be fired.

“Dig a pit by the stream, just use it as a water tank, and the cement made this time is used to bury the foundation, so don’t pay attention to it.” Chu Feng thought about it and said softly.

“Okay, I get it.” Yun Xin nodded softly in response.

“I’m going to chop wood.” Chu Feng stood up and stretched out, carrying a wooden knife and turning around and walking towards the jungle.

“Then be careful, don’t get too tired.” Yun Xin hurriedly instructed.

“Got it.” Chu Feng waved his hand without looking back, and then the figure was blocked by the trees.

After more than ten minutes, the girl and the Liu family sisters packed up the pots and pans and began to get busy.

Liu Yimeng carried the sapper shovel to the stream, helped the girl dig the cement pit, and then returned to the open space, with a look of lovelessness on her face, bent down to continue digging the pit hole.

“You have to move the ashes of grass and trees.” Yun Xin moved everything inside the bamboo basket out, and then used hay to block the large gap in the bamboo basket.

She filled the bamboo basket with grass and wood ash, and began to run back and forth with the small bamboo basket on her back, and it took more than half an hour to move all the grass and wood ashes.

Yun Xin put down the small bamboo basket and squatted down by the creek to rest.

The girl rested, then dug a groove into the edge of the pit, let the water of the creek flow into the pit, and when the water was full, she blocked the groove with stones.

“Next is to stir well.” Yun Xin muttered softly.

She got up and found a wooden stick, stood on the edge of the pit, and began to stir the water in the pit so that the grass and wood ash inside was fully dissolved.

More than ten minutes later.

Yun Xin stopped the movement in his hand and whispered to himself, “Let it settle down for a while.” ”

The girl put down the stick, returned to the wooden table, took the bark of the hibiscus tree and continued to weave the rope, ready to wait for the grass and wood ash to settle before continuing to make cement.

“Hey, hey, hey…” Liu Yimeng bit her lower lip and dug into the soil one by one.

“When you’re tired, I’ll take a break, I’ll dig for the meeting.” Liu Yiqiu said softly.

“Okay, I’ll take a five-minute break.” Liu Yimeng smiled and handed the sapper shovel to her sister, and then sat down with her hips twisted.

Liu Yiqiu sipped his lips, carrying the sapper shovel and bending down to dig the soil, and when he went down with a shovel, he realized that it was more difficult to dig than expected.

The soil layer of the open space is very hard, and there are many gravel, and if a shovel goes down, it is likely to be separated by rubble.

She dug for a moment and her forehead began to sweat.

“Sister, dig a little more, you can still exercise.”

Liu Yimeng pretended to be serious and said, “Look at the way you look weak and can’t help the wind now, no, you need to exercise more.” ”

“……”

Liu Yiqiu’s eyes narrowed slightly, and she asked without smiling, “Liu Yimeng, do you think I can’t move you?” ”

“Hee-hee… I’m kidding. Liu Yimeng smiled and waved his hand.

Liu Yiqiu rolled her eyes in disgust, bent down and continued to dig the soil, letting her sister rest for a while.

Time passed slowly, and the sun moved westward, around four o’clock in the afternoon.

Yun Xin was crouching by the creek and scooping out the water in the pit with a steel pot.

“If only there were barrels and clay pots.” Yun Xin muttered softly, biting her lower lip and filling it with water in a steel pot.

The barrels were washed away in the flash flood, and the clay pots taken away were used to hold vegetable oil, and there were no extra clay pots to use.

It took more than twenty minutes for the water in the pit to be cleared, revealing the grayish-white grass and stucco at the bottom.

The girl squatted down, fished up the grass and wood stucco, and held it firmly with her small hand, squeezing out the excess water to make a fist-sized “mud ball”, and then put it aside to dry.

“…”

Inside the jungle, Chu Feng was carrying the wood forward, and just now, he had cut down sixty-four pieces of wood, and now he was going to move all back to the camp.

“It’s pretty heavy.” He muttered softly, carrying six pieces of wood on his shoulders.

The combined weight of the six pieces of wood was more than six hundred pounds, which was not Chu Feng’s limit.

But the total size of the six pieces of wood is very large, and the hands can barely hold it, and it is difficult to control any more.

After more than ten minutes, Chu Feng returned to the camp and placed the wood on the open space.

Liu Yimeng stopped the movement in his hand, waved his sour hand and said triumphantly, “Chu Feng, am I strong?” Twenty dirt pits have been dug. ”

The corners of Chu Feng’s mouth rose and he cooperated with encouragement: “It’s so powerful, there are only forty-four earth pits left, come on.” ”

“……. There are still forty-four. Liu Yimeng’s proud face immediately shrugged and pulled down.

Chu Feng smiled lightly and turned back to the jungle, moving all the wood back before dark.

The sun slowly disappeared into the sky, and the sky darkened, as if a gray veil was cast in front of the eyes.

“Bang~~”

Chu Feng put down the wood on his shoulder, which was the last few pieces of wood cut down today.

“I can’t dig anymore, I’ll continue tomorrow.” Liu Yimeng waved her hands, dragged her tired body, and sat on a wooden chair.

Near dark, the number of pits dug went from twenty to thirty.

“It’s been hard.” Chu Feng opened his mouth gently.

“Fortunately, compared to your workload, it’s nothing.” Liu Yimeng glanced at the wood that was quickly piled up into a hill, was this really cut out in one day?

“Tomorrow we have a day off and it’s time to explore the surroundings.” Chu Feng thought about it and said softly.

Since coming here, I have not investigated the surrounding environment much.

“Okay.” Liu Yimeng was relieved.

“I’ll cook dinner.” Yun Xin smiled and said that the mud mass was calcined in the fire, which was a crucial step in making cement.

She carefully cleaned the steel pot several times with soap to make sure it was clean and then filled with water on the fire.

After more than half an hour, everyone sat around the wooden table, holding a pottery bowl and stuffing meat into their mouths to replenish the day’s consumption.

“Chu Feng, eat more.” Yun Xin said softly, using a wooden spoon to fill Chu Feng with a bowl of meat again.

Looking at the pile of wood, she could guess how much work Chu Feng had done today, all the meat cooked tonight was more than before, and she had to make up for it.

“Well, you can eat more.” Chu Feng answered softly.

“Sister Meng, Sister Qiu, you should also eat more.” Yun Xin even hurriedly filled the Liu family sisters with meat, and today the two of them were also very hard.

“Hee-hee, it’s still Yunxin’s best.” Liu Yimeng smiled and giggled, and the pottery bowl was filled with meat again.

Yun Xin smiled with some embarrassment, and then picked up the pottery bowl and ate it in a big mouthful.

After more than half an hour, everyone settled the dinner, and Chu Feng sat by the fire, using the sapper shovel to shovel out the calcined mud ball, and put it aside to cool, leaving it to build a shelter for reuse.
