Smoke from cooking fires slowly rose in the village, and parents were already shouting at their children to go back for dinner, but Qin Yi and his family had only built half of their 'bamboo house'.
"It seems that we can't finish building it today, and we need to continue building it tomorrow. But, can this 'bamboo house' be kept for one night? Gensheng, you definitely couldn't finish it by yourself before. What did you do?"
Wang Gensheng scratched his head and said, "I just put it here."
"If you put it here, won't it be damaged?"
"It will be damaged. If it's damaged, you can build it again."
Hearing Wang Gensheng's answer, Qin Yi rolled his eyes: "Isn't it that the building is always broken and the building is broken? A complete 'bamboo house' will never be built?"
"It doesn't matter if we can't match it, as long as there is a match..." Wang Gensheng didn't quite understand why Qin Yi was struggling with this issue.
At this time, Qin Yi finally understood.
Building a bamboo house with wooden sticks is just a game for Wang Gensheng.
Moreover, it is a game that does not seek results, only the process.
As long as he has a bamboo house to build, he will be satisfied.
I don't think about anything else at all.
But Qin Yi was different. For him, this was the fruit of his half-day's work, and he didn't want it to be wasted just like that.
Let everything you do today be in vain.
He wanted to see the day when the bamboo house was completed.
Qin Yi thought for a while and said: "I asked my brother and the others to send a message to everyone, asking everyone not to destroy our 'bamboo house'. If there is no man-made destruction, it should be able to be saved."
After Qin Yi finished speaking, he took action and went to Shuanzi and Zhuzhu to express his request.
It was just a matter of words. Shuanzi and Zhuzhu immediately regarded it as a game and began to spread word of mouth.
Qin Yi hesitated for a moment, thought of his father's instructions, found Dashan again, and asked him for help.
After hearing this, Dashan patted his chest and promised: "Don't worry, brother Datou, leave it to me. I will definitely handle it for you. You will definitely be able to see a 'bamboo house' that will not be destroyed tomorrow."
Qin Yi politely thanked Dashan, then said goodbye to Wang Gensheng, and went home for dinner with Shuanzi and Zhuzhu.
The next day, because he was thinking about the 'Bamboo House', Qin Yi finished his breakfast in twos and twos, ignored his two brothers, and ran to the wasteland at the east end of the village.
When he came to the wasteland, he saw that in the entire wasteland, there was only one person, Dashan, standing by the "bamboo house", holding a stone, and roaring at the wasteland to the north, driving something away.
Seeing Qin Yi coming, Dashan smiled and said hello to Qin Yi: "Datou, look, the 'Bamboo House' is fine."
Qin Yi glanced at it and saw that the 'Bamboo House' was indeed fine. Qin Yi looked at Dashan who was covered in dew and in low spirits, and asked hesitantly: "Da Shan, you won't stay here all the time?"
Dashan was stunned for a moment, then smiled and said: "How is it possible? Even if I wanted to stay overnight, my parents wouldn't let me. I was the last one to leave yesterday. After dinner, I sneaked out again before the compound was locked.
I've been here a few times for a walk, and after I woke up this morning, I hurried over to keep watch. Just now, a few mountain rats that came out to look for food in the morning were scurrying around. They almost came here and damaged the bamboo house.
'. By the way, Datou, since you are here, I will leave this place to you, and I have to go home quickly for dinner."
After saying that, Dashan waved to Qin Yi and ran away.
Qin Yi looked at Dashan's back and was truly moved as never before.
Because you have achieved this level of success just by asking for your help, how can you not be moved?
"I recognize this brother Dashan."
It wasn't until this moment that Qin Yi truly accepted Dashan as his sworn brother.
After waiting for a while, the third Wang Gensheng rushed over. When he saw Qin Yi and the undamaged 'bamboo house', he was very excited.
"Datou, you are so awesome, you really guarded the 'bamboo house'."
Obviously, it wasn't that Wang Gensheng didn't want to defend, it was just that he had never defended before, so he had no choice but to lie down.
Qin Yi shook his head and told what happened about Dashan.
After Wang Gensheng heard this, he was also very moved. He truly let go of his previous conflicts and truly recognized Dashan.
"Datou, don't let Dashan down. Let's finish it today."
"good."
As the degree of completion became higher and higher, the children playing not far away were constantly attracted to it. Before dinner, the two of them finally completed it.
A model of a 'bamboo house' made of wooden sticks and straw ropes was displayed in front of everyone.
"Ah, wooden house, this is a wooden house."
"Ah, Datou and Gensheng are so powerful, they can actually build a wooden house."
"I really want one too."
Dashan even boasted about his great achievements in the crowd, saying that he had a share of the credit for the success of this wooden house.
Qin Yi was also very satisfied.
In addition to the sense of accomplishment of completing the construction, more importantly, with the completion of the 'Bamboo House' model, the skill 'Construction' has been promoted to LV1 as he expected.
When Qin Yi and his two brothers arrived at the wasteland at the east end of the village the next day, Wang Gensheng squatted on the ground and cried sadly. Dashan stared at the position in front of Wang Gensheng and stood aside with a look of regret.
Qin Yi's heart moved, he guessed something, and he walked forward quickly. When he got closer, he found that the "bamboo house" model he had just built yesterday had been completely destroyed.
Dashan saw Qin Yi and said bitterly: "This must have been deliberately sabotaged by someone."
At this point, he beat his head again and said regretfully: "It's all my fault. If I had guarded it last night, it wouldn't have broken."
"Da Shan, I don't blame you for this. Can you keep watch for one night, two nights, or forever? This is unrealistic."
Qin Yi walked up to Wang Gensheng, patted him on the shoulder and said, "Actually, from the very beginning when we built the 'bamboo house' here, we were mentally prepared for it, weren't we?"
"Datou, I will never build a 'bamboo house' again."
When Qin Yi heard this, he immediately became anxious.
That won't work. If you don't teach me anymore, where can I find a 'teacher' like him?
Moreover, this is only LV1, and Qin Yi has not yet gained enough experience in ‘construction’.
Qin Yi optimistically estimated that by building the 'Bamboo House' model, he could at least level up his 'Construction' skill to LV2.
Qin Yi immediately advised: "Gensheng, don't say angry words first. When we encounter problems, we just solve them. How can we give up when we encounter problems? That is the behavior of a coward."
Wang Gensheng was stunned for a moment, raised his head, and asked with a choked voice: "What is a coward?"
"Well, he is just a coward and a loser."
Wang Gensheng immediately put away his tears and said firmly: "Datou, I don't want to be a coward. Let's go on, but..."
Qin Yi rolled his eyes, thought of the model, and suggested, "Wouldn't it be great if we made a movable foundation, built the bamboo house on this movable foundation, and took it home every night?"
"Ah, there is also a moving foundation? How to do this? I don't know how."
"Let me think about it... to make a mobile foundation, we can simply use local materials and build one directly with wooden sticks."
"Is this ok?"
"Why not? Did we use bamboo in the 'bamboo house' we built? Not even a single one was used. They were all replaced by wooden sticks. Since bamboo can be replaced by wooden sticks, why can't the foundation be used?
?”
"Ah? Sticks and bamboo are both wood, and the foundation is made of soil and sticks. Is that really okay?"
"Believe me, it can be done!"
Under Qin Yi's firm gaze, Wang Gensheng chose to believe it. He immediately clenched his fists with full energy and said, "Okay, then we will build another model that can be moved home."
