Hei Wa and the others didn't know what Shenzi wanted to do, but they all followed him with great interest, because usually under such circumstances, Shenzi could perform new miracles.
The winter here is colder than where Han Cheng lived later. Although the sun had already come out at this time, the temperature still didn't rise much. When a few people walked out of the Qingque tribe, white air puffed out in the air, as if they were swallowing clouds and mist.
of monsters.
Han Cheng first asked someone to dig a rectangular pit here with a bone shovel.
The pit does not need to be too deep, just 20 centimeters deep.
Although the weather is cold, because it has not rained or snowed in this period, the ground has not frozen much. It is still possible to dig with a bone shovel, but it will freeze your hands.
Exercise makes people warm. After digging a shallow pit that was over one meter long and about half a meter wide, the few people who participated in the digging were already sweating.
Everyone was speculating on the Son of God’s intention of digging a hole here.
Is it necessary to set up another defense here?
Seeing that this place is not too far away from the defensive belt made of wooden sticks, thorns, and rattan, I think it is probably like this.
However, everyone's thoughts soon disappeared, because the pit was dug too narrow, and it only took a little effort to cross it, so it was of no use in blocking the enemy.
After the hole was dug, Han Cheng was about to let people continue the next step when he heard someone in the tribe calling for food.
There is no limit to the number of meals in the world. This is the creed of foodies. Especially in such a cold season, drinking a bowl of hot soup will make people feel comfortable all over.
Han Cheng immediately stopped what he was doing and returned to the tribe with everyone to eat.
We just finished a batch of rabbits in the morning, so naturally rabbits will be the main part of lunch today.
After eating a steaming bowl of rabbit soup, all the chills were dispelled, and my body was warm. I was holding a roasted golden rabbit leg, biting and chewing it slowly, not to mention how comfortable it was.
After lunch, Han Cheng filled half of the earthen jar with the remaining charcoal after cooking, and led the people out of the cave, which was used as a storage room and dining hall, and walked towards the outside of the tribe.
This time more people followed. In addition to the Heiwa who dug holes in the morning, the witches who had had enough of rabbit hunting also came out, as well as the children who were jumping around and not afraid of the cold.
There were iron heads and wood. After the balloon and others came out and looked at it for a while, they turned around and headed east.
Under their armpits, they carried stone sickles and ropes with hooks for binding things.
This kind of rope is most convenient for tying things. Pull up both ends of the rope placed on the ground in advance, wrap it around the firewood, rapeseed or other things placed on it, and then pull the end without the wooden hook toward the wooden hook.
Once hung up, just pull hard in the opposite direction.
Tietou and the others climbed up the hill where the cave was located, took out the rope and stretched it on the ground, and then began to cut with stone sickles.
What they harvest is completely dry thatch.
Before roof tiles were safely popularized, thatch had always been a very useful grass. The thatch was growing very well this year, and Han Cheng was naturally reluctant to waste it. He also had great uses for the thatch.
It's just that the Qingque Tribe has too many things to do, so it has been waiting until now to find the manpower to do this.
The thatch was golden, and when it stood on the ground and collided with each other, a sound of "crack, pop, pop, pop" was heard.
The people arranged by Han Cheng to harvest thatch were all people who often harvested grass. Doing one thing for a long time made them very familiar with using stone sickles to harvest things.
The fastest man on hand is still Tietou, a grass-cutting enthusiast. He has already started tying thatch before others have finished the bundle.
One leg was half-kneeling and pressed on the thatch bundle. Every time he pressed, the hand holding the end of the rope pulled hard.
As he exerted force, the gap just squeezed out by his legs disappeared. After doing this several times, the entire bundle of thatch was tied firmly, and the extra rope ends were tied to the tight rope.
, the thatch bundle will not loosen, and then use a rough straw rope woven from wool to tie it along the rope. After the binding is strong, untie the rope with the hook.
This is done to save rope. After all, it is too wasteful to use such well-woven rope to tie up thatch.
The rough ropes woven from wool are inconvenient to bundle. It takes a lot of effort to bundle the thatch firmly without loosening. This method can perfectly solve this problem.
This method was not thought up by Han Cheng, but figured out by Tietou himself.
Sure enough, labor can make people smarter.
However, it was Han Cheng who came up with the method of tying a wooden hook to one end of the rope often used to tie up grass.
When tying at the beginning, pull one end of the rope out of a loop, wrap it around once, put the other end of the rope through the loop and pull in the opposite direction.
The process is the same as using grooved rope.
It's just that there is a lot of inconvenience. When untying the bundle, the rope is easy to get stuck, and the ring will be worn out if you pull it too many times.
Tietou was very upset that the rope kept breaking. In order to prevent the rope from breaking, he did not dare to use force when tying things.
The result is even more troublesome. It is extremely uncomfortable to transport things like grass if they are not bundled firmly. Sometimes the bundles will loosen and the bundled grass will fall to the ground...
Han Cheng didn't pay attention at first, and it took him two or three days to realize something was wrong, because in the past, Tietou would be full of energy when he came back from cutting grass, and the straw bales were neatly made, but now it's like a different person.
of.
After asking about the reason and knowing the whole story, the rope with wooden hook came into being.
The wooden hook is not afraid of the rope being abraded. The more it is abraded, the stronger it will become and it will also become smoother.
After Han Cheng solved this problem, Tietou's enthusiasm for mowing grass was revived again...
While the iron heads were tying up the thatch, Han Cheng was also directing people to use bone shovels to fill the pit with the soil dug out in the morning and piled on the edge of the pit.
Inside the pit is a pile of burning firewood.
Everyone had no idea what the Son of God meant by this move. Not to mention lighting a fire in the wild, why... the fire was so good but it still had to be filled with soil?
In this case, wouldn't all the fire be extinguished?
Everyone was confused, but their men kept moving, shoveling shovel after shovel of soil under the cover. The burning fire was quickly extinguished by this sudden blow. It didn't even have to struggle twice.
Buried alive.
After burying it, Han Shenzi still didn't understand his hatred, so he asked people to jump up and step on the earth to make it solid.
It is comparable to the ferocious force in which Niu Jinda buried Shan Xiongxin's soldiers and horses alive, and then led three thousand cavalry on them to trample him for half the night.
Until now, everyone is still confused about what the Son of God wants to do. Wu has been thinking about it for a while and can't figure out what the Son of God means by this move.
Of course they couldn't figure it out, because even Han Cheng, the instigator, didn't know whether such a seemingly unreliable method could burn out carbon.
