The collection of thatch and the laying of the roof were a rather troublesome task, and it took nearly twenty days to complete both tasks.
During this period of time, Senior Brother and others took the time to build a mud wall.
After the roof was built, the remaining three mud walls were completed in four days with many laborers working together.
The thatch laid on the roof exudes a golden glow under the warm spring sun.
The newly-pasted mud walls are strong and thick, giving people a sense of security.
And because there are many holes in the mud wall at a height of 1.34 meters, it can be called a deer enclosure with good light.
Especially after lighting several fires and burning them continuously for more than two days, Han Chengdu had the urge to drive the deer into the cave and let the people in the tribe live in the deer pen!
The reason why Han Cheng wanted to build the deer pen so well was because of his considerations.
Firstly, this kind of deer enclosure is not easy to be damaged. If you put more effort in repairing it at the beginning, you won’t have to worry about it anymore after it is built. Secondly, he attaches great importance to this group of deer and wants to create a good environment for them.
A good living environment.
The third reason is that I want to practice building deer enclosures and gain more experience for the houses that will be built this year.
After experiencing the deer enclosure, Han Cheng felt confident 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 increasing the height of the fence was more important than building the house, Han Cheng would have wanted to start building the house immediately after the deer enclosure was completed.
Perhaps God wanted to test whether this 'cave' made of mud and vegetation could block his own power, so on the third day after the deer enclosure was built, it started to rain steadily.
Wu, his senior brother, and others, after discovering that it was raining, all looked at the deer pen that they had spent a lot of effort to build, which could be called a house, with some worry.
They had the experience of taking shelter from rain under trees, and knew that the leaves could not cover all the rain. The top of the deer pen that Shenzi led everyone to build was covered with grass, so they expressed their feelings about this.
A great worry.
Han Cheng had full confidence in thatched huts. In later generations, he had never stayed in thatched huts.
The well-built thatched huts can withstand even heavy rainstorms in summer, and there will be no miserable scene like "the bedside house is leaking and there is no drying place, and the rain is like hemp and the feet are not stopped", let alone the pounding spring rain now.
People always value things they have spent a lot of effort to obtain, and primitive people are no exception.
Han Cheng noticed everyone's worries, thought about it, and called some people who wanted to go there, and together they ran to the deer pen in the rain.
Deer are not stupid either. When it was first built, the deer refused to go into this weird-looking cave. Now that it's raining, they went in by themselves without even asking.
And it's the kind of thing where you can't even get out if you stay inside.
The fawn has grown up a lot, but when it saw Han Cheng, it still couldn't help but move closer to its mother. It had a deep memory of this little two-legged beast that always competed with it for milk!
Han Cheng was not in the mood to fight for the deer's milk now, because he had already come over with a bowl and squeezed it once in the morning...
It started to rain in spring and the temperature was still very low, so Han Cheng asked someone to light a fire in the deer enclosure to keep warm.
The lowest point between the roof and the ground is nearly 1.7 meters, and the surrounding walls are made of mud walls, so there is no need to worry about fire igniting the house.
When the fire was lit, Han Cheng did not go to bake, but walked slowly in the deer shed with his head raised to see if there was any leakage.
The result was just as he expected, the grates inside the roof were all dry and there was no sign of rain leaking at all.
All the rainwater that fell on the deer shed slid down to the ground along the grass.
When he saw Han Cheng approaching, he consciously moved closer to his wife, hoping that the deer would be able to partake of the milk. After waiting for a while next to his wife, who was nursing the deer cubs, he became a little anxious when he saw that Han Cheng could not pass, so he took a step forward.
The man with slender legs came over, lowered his head, gently bit the animal skin wrapped around Han Cheng's body with his teeth, and pulled it towards his wife.
Han Cheng, who understood what Uncle Lu meant, couldn't laugh or cry. He stretched out his hands to show that he was not holding the bowl.
Uncle Lu, who felt a little disappointed, walked aside angrily, not wanting to pay attention to Han Cheng, an unscrupulous guy.
Wu, Senior Brother and others all came. They imitated Han Cheng and walked around the deer shed. When they saw that there was really no rain falling in, they all became very happy, because this showed that their efforts were not in vain.
.
Wu Ze was different from ordinary people. After a brief moment of joy, he looked around at this unique cave, with a look of thought in his eyes.
He thought of the cave where they had lived for generations.
There were several irregular holes at the top of their cave. Wu didn't know whether those holes were dug by previous tribesmen or if they were there all along.
But he knew that these holes were very important.
Not only the choking smoke released when the fire is burning will be exhausted from these holes, but the light from the outside will also penetrate through these holes, so that the cave will not be too dark.
Those holes are of great use to the tribe, but they can also cause trouble.
That is, whenever it rains, water will leak into the cave.
Even if it is covered with stone slabs, rainwater will still flow into the cave.
Before the first Son of God arrived, all they could do was to carve some small ditches in the cave to let the dripping rainwater flow out along the ditches. However, there were still many places in the tribe where
It was very uncomfortable to get wet.
After the Son of God arrived and made pottery, when it rained again, he used water jars and pottery basins to catch it. Although the situation was much better than before, it was still troublesome after all.
Moreover, after the few lighting holes are blocked, the light in the hole will become extremely dim.
Now Shenzi has created such a cave that is watertight and well-lit. Although it is said to be for deer to live in, it should be possible for people to live in it...
It has to be said that Wu is indeed the wise man in the tribe. While the others 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 must know that Han Cheng has not mentioned to him the matter of building houses to allow people in the tribe to move out of caves. It is really rare for him to think of this.
In the evening, Wu told Han Cheng his thoughts. Han Cheng was very surprised at Wu's intelligence and avant-garde.
He originally thought that asking the tribesmen to give up the caves they had lived in for generations and move to houses they had never lived in before would require a lot of effort, and he would even need to use his identity as the Son of God to move the gods out.
But he didn't expect that before he could speak, Wu had already taken the initiative to mention this matter to him.
Han Cheng had been thinking about telling Wu about this matter recently, but now that Wu had taken the initiative to bring it up, he just let it go.
After Wu learned that the place where the Time Clan lived would be better than the deer pen, a heartfelt smile appeared on Wu's old face.
