Chapter 28 Facing the Great Lake, Spring Blossoms

After enjoying a late lunch, the sun was still slanting in the sky, spreading its heat.

However, the strong wind blowing on the ground told him that the weather might change soon.

The setting sun shines from the direction of the small bamboo forest, casting a lingering shadow on the ground.

He lay on his back on the cool grass, with his hands on the back of his head, feeling the breath of grass brought by the wind, and watching the slowly changing shapes of clouds in the sky.

At this time, he was thinking that if he could have a cup of tea, watch the lakes and mountains, and enjoy the spring breeze and autumn moon, it would be a great pleasure in life!

Then, he couldn't help but think of his life over the past twenty years.

As long as he can remember, he has been studying. Although his grades were not very good, with the hard work of his parents, he finally graduated from college. After graduation, he worked, and the busy work sometimes made him feel that life was simply meaningless.

.

He can already foresee his future, marrying an ordinary woman, building an ordinary family, having two little cuties, and running around for the family every day.

Just like my own parents, working hard for the next generation.

And this, in the eyes of many young people, is a luxury.

Yun Buliu sometimes thinks that kind of thing is very luxurious, because he has the same idea as many young people, not daring to try love easily. Sometimes he even thinks that being alone is quite good.

At this time, if he saw those places with beautiful scenery, he would think, wouldn't it be beautiful if he could own a house in such a place and face the spring flowers blooming?

After thinking about it, he thought of now.

Looking back, aside from the dangers, wouldn't the scenery here be even more beautiful?

And it is definitely not easy to leave this world, and it is even possible that you will not be able to leave this world in your lifetime. In this case, why bother?

Furthermore, it is difficult to say whether there are any traces of human beings outside this vast mountain.

Since the road is long and difficult, why not slow down and enjoy the scenery along the way?

Thinking about this, he realized that after he came to this world, he seemed to have overlooked many beautiful things in his hurried steps, dominated by nervousness and panic.

The scenery along the way, the strange birds and animals, the giant trees that support the sky...

There was also the sea of ​​flowers in the orchard that filled the mountains. He knew that he had missed that sea of ​​flowers. It was estimated that by this time, the orchard was already full of green fruits!

Life has passed by in a hurry, and I have already lost everything. Why not let go of those anxieties and embrace the present?

He didn't know if this was self-comfort or self-hypnosis.

But no matter what, after thinking about it like this, looking at the surrounding scenery, the flowers, trees, plants and trees all seemed to become more vivid than before.

Even the somewhat annoying goose call sounded much more pleasant to him.

A carp jumped up, bent over, put his hands to his mouth, and shouted in the direction of the big lake, "Ah..."

The sound passed through the lake and traveled towards the mountains and forests on the other side, echoing and reverberating in the mountains and forests.

In the forest behind me, birds started to fly.

On the lake, the silly geese turned their heads to look at him.

After watching it for a while, he called out blankly, seeming to be surprised.

Seeing this, he couldn't help but laugh, and turned back to the cave with a happy mood.

Yun Buliu did not realize that his situation, in the eyes of practitioners, was actually a sublimation and breakthrough in his state of mind.

From this moment on, he became more in tune with this mountain forest and nature.

I want to build a house by this lake, facing the big lake and the flowers blooming in spring.

He looked back at the spring flowers on the green grass and the wrinkled lake surface outside the spring flowers, and said to himself.

It was still late spring at this time, and in the greenery, countless small wildflowers were posing in the wind. Unfortunately, his knowledge of these small flowers and grasses was limited, and there were too few that could be named famous.

Nihucai, Ququcai, Bobaoding are actually dandelions, bitter herbs, mugwort, purple grass, snakeberry grass, goosegrass, thistle, Xiaofeifeng, foxtail grass, mugwort...

Looking at these wild flowers and weeds that he could or could not name, Yun Buliu felt very comfortable, and even temporarily chose to forget about the monsters that might exist in the lake.

However, he felt that he had to clear a piece of land first and cultivate some tea seedlings.

Although he didn't know how long he would stay in this place, he knew that one day he would leave this vast mountain and go see the world outside the mountain.

Maybe the world outside is still vast, or maybe it will be a prosperous world.

But he knew that it was always right to be prepared.

Maybe one day, I will come back here again?

Eating meat every day and drinking a cup of tea to relieve dryness is naturally an extremely pleasant thing.

Originally, August and September were the most suitable months for cultivating tea seedlings, but Yunbuliu couldn't take care of that much anymore. Spring is also a good time to plant tea, so just treat it as tea.

He took a stick and chose a piece of land close to the bamboo forest but still forty or fifty meters away. Then he inserted the stick into the ground and pried up the grass roots.

If you don't have a hoe, you can only use a stick instead.

He pried up the grass by the roots and dug out a piece of land of about four to five square meters.

In fact, there was only one tea tree he brought back. There were not many branches that could be used for cultivation, and not many tea seedlings could be cultivated. One square meter of nursery was enough.

The main purpose of digging out such a large area is to remove the grass next to it so that the tea seedlings can grow better.

However, after digging out so much soil, the land would definitely become a depression, so he piled the soil next to it into the middle.

You need to build a nursery that is at least ten to twenty centimeters higher than the ground.

If the nursery becomes a depression, the tea seedlings will drown if it rains.

He dug four vertical and horizontal ditches next to the seedbed, and dug two soil pits one meter deep beside the ditches, which could be used for drainage during floods and for water storage during droughts.

Crush the soil in the seedbed and compact it. Then use a homemade bone knife to quickly chop the red tea branches with axillary buds, and cut out small branches of six to seven centimeters diagonally.

Originally, it was best to cut diagonally with scissors to ensure a smooth cut on the tea seedlings.

But without scissors, he could only use a bone knife. With his current eyesight and wrist strength, combined with a sharply sharpened bone knife, the effect was surprisingly good.

In fact, the bone knife is quite sharp and can be used to cut meat without any problems.

Making a bone knife is not troublesome, just crush the wild deer bones with stones, and then slowly rub the bones on a rough stone surface.

During the barbecue, Yun Buliu smashed more than a dozen deer bones, and finally found a satisfactory piece of bone on a smashed leg bone.

Then he grinded out a bone knife that was more than twenty centimeters long and two centimeters wide.

The handle of the knife is thinly wrapped with bark fibers, and the blade is twelve or thirteen centimeters.

It looks like a pure white fruit knife.

After cutting out forty or fifty sections of small branches, he inserted these small branches into the seedbed, and then covered the seedbed with some grass to provide shade and ensure the humidity of the soil.

After doing this, the sky was getting dark.

He exhaled and returned to the cave to prepare dinner. He thought he could start building a log cabin tomorrow. As for the cave, he thought it could be used as an underground kiln in the future.
