After covering it, Han Cheng came to the front wall.
There was a small kang set up here, and Little Wandou was sleeping on it alone.
At this time, Little Pea was also curled up into a ball due to the cold.
Han Chengban walked over with his shoes on, bent down to pick up his sleeping son, came to the edge of the big kang where they slept, lifted up the animal skin mattress, put the little pea next to little Xing'er, and put the animal skin
The mattress is well covered and the corners are tucked in to prevent wind from escaping.
It's really strange today. Why did it suddenly become so cold?
After doing this, Han Cheng, who was shrinking his neck from the cold, muttering to himself, took out his tiger skin cloak from a simple cabinet in the room and wrapped it around him.
I originally wanted to go out and find some firewood to burn the kang, but when I was about to open the door, I changed my mind.
Holding the light, he walked towards the room at the other end of the house.
This is the house where Wu and Yuan live.
The love between Wu and Yuan at dusk was really good. Han Cheng came in quietly with an oil lamp and found that the two of them were hugging each other while sleeping.
The round head rested on one of Wu's arms.
This unexpected mouthful of old dog food ate Han Cheng, and he felt extremely comfortable.
It seems that Wu needs to be reminded in the future not to let the two of them sleep in this position again.
This is not because Han Cheng was fed dog food, but because he often sleeps in this position, one person is prone to frozen shoulder and the other to cervical spondylosis, especially when the weather is cold.
This is comparable to a girl stewing chicken soup for a boy, but the stew is not cooked properly. Then when the girl blames herself, the boy says affectionately, I like to eat as long as you make it.
The poisonous chicken soup theory that after drinking the chicken soup, both of them got chicken plague and died the next day is much more real.
The examples of frozen shoulder and cervical spondylosis tell us that when showing affection, we must master the correct method.
When Han Cheng saw the two of them sleeping soundly, he did not wake them up. Instead, he slowly exited with an oil lamp. He opened the door and closed it again. As soon as he came outside, a wave of cold air rushed towards him.
.
"Bang bang bang!"
"Bang bang bang!"
"Wake up, wake up! Don't sleep! Get up and some people bring firewood into the house to burn the kang!"
Holding a lamp and wearing a tiger-skin cloak, Han Cheng walked to the houses where everyone lived, knocked on the door one by one, provided free wake-up calls, and urged everyone to get up and light the kang.
There hasn't been any frost this year. According to the usual practice in previous years, it will take quite some time for it to get extremely cold, so the tribe hasn't started burning the kang yet.
But at this time, the weather suddenly turned cold, so we had no choice but to burn the kang quickly.
This time is no different than later generations. Although the tribes at this time had some treatment methods, these treatment methods were only superficial, and many diseases could not be cured. After all, Han Cheng was not a professional student of medicine in his later generations.
At this time, catching a cold may kill someone, especially children and the elderly with weak immunity.
It was precisely because of this situation that when Han Cheng noticed that the temperature dropped suddenly at night, he would immediately call the door and ask the sleeping people to get up and light the kang.
If you ignore it, someone will catch the cold if you don't get up early.
As Han Cheng banged on the door and shouted, the sleeping people were woken up by Han Cheng.
Some people were in a daze, and when they heard the shouting, they subconsciously moved their hands to one side.
Regular training ensures that they do not lose the alertness they should have.
Then he reacted, heard who the voice was outside, and understood the meaning behind the words.
At this time, everyone suddenly realized that the night had suddenly become so cold.
As Han Cheng knocked on the door and shouted, the sleeping Qingque tribe was awakened, and it became more lively after a while.
"Go over there and wake up the people living in the other rooms, ask them to get up, and burn the kangs in the rooms. People from the slave courtyard also have people go over there to wake them up and burn the kangs in the same way.
."
Han Cheng explained to the senior brother and others who came out of the room.
Then he and more people went to the place where firewood was stored to collect firewood.
After waking up some people and handing over the tasks, Han Cheng ignored them and returned to the house where he lived with some firewood in his arms.
Put some of the firewood in the room where they live, and the other part in the room where the witch lives.
When Han Cheng carried the firewood to Wu's room, Wu was awakened by the sound outside and was blowing fire sticks vigorously there.
"Son of God, what's wrong?"
Seeing Han Cheng coming in with firewood and a lamp, Wu quickly asked.
"It's okay, it's just that it suddenly got cold. I called people up and asked them to burn the kang."
Han Cheng said while putting the firewood on the ground.
When the wizard put on his clothes and was about to get up, Han Cheng quickly stopped him: "Don't get up. It's very cold. Don't catch a cold. I've already shouted for everyone and everything has been explained. There's nothing wrong."
"I'll put on the fire."
When Wu heard what Han Cheng said, he felt relieved, but he still wanted to get up.
"No, I'll just burn it for you. Anyway, I'm already up."
Han Cheng stopped him again.
"Son of God, go and burn the fire bed where you are sleeping. I will do it here."
Yuan also woke up at this time, and when he saw this, he spoke out, stood up immediately, and helped Wu to lie back on the bed again.
Seeing this, Wu stopped insisting. Yuan Ze took the animal skin clothes beside him, put them on top of the linen clothes he was wearing, and began to collect firewood and put them into the kang.
Seeing this, Han Cheng returned to the room where he lived with an oil lamp.
Here we have to admire Bai Xuemei for being so sleepy. She made such a big fuss, but the child bride didn't know anything about it and was still sleeping soundly.
The two little ones were accompanied by their mother, who also slept soundly. It was the owner who sold them without knowing it after they fell asleep at night.
Han Cheng shook his head and smiled, put the oil lamp on the table, then opened the sealed fire pit and put the firewood inside.
After putting in a certain amount of dry firewood, he picked up some firewood for starting a fire, brought it to the lamp and lit it, then put it into the fire pit to light the dry firewood.
The so-called dry firewood refers to firewood that is resistant to burning, such as branches and trunks, while firewood refers to things such as hay, straw, and dry tree leaves.
Han Cheng stood here, watching the fire burning under the stove. After a while, he reached out and touched the top of the stove. When he felt that the temperature was about the same, he put some firewood inside and sealed the opening of the stove, leaving only
Small holes to allow the firewood to burn slowly.
After finishing all this work, Han Cheng took off his tiger skin cloak and clothes, lay down on the kang, covered himself with a mattress, and blew out the lights.
Lying on the heated kang, I suddenly felt that I couldn't feel the cold anymore, I just felt very comfortable all over my body.
Han Cheng lay here, thinking about the suddenly cold weather for a while, and it didn't take long before he fell asleep.
The noise outside slowly disappeared, and calm finally returned. Only a faint smoke came out from the erected chimneys behind the rows of houses, and the air was filled with the smell of burning firewood.
The Qingque tribe has a fire kang for heating. People can sleep peacefully in the suddenly cold temperature, but the other tribes cannot.
Just like the Blackstone Tribe in the far north.
The flickering firelight caused the shadows in the cave to tremble uncontrollably. There was hay bark underneath him, and the animal skin covering his body was tightly wrapped.
Even that didn't work, I was still feeling cold, so I leaned hard against the fire and leaned closely together with the other people sleeping here.
Most of the other people also felt the cold, and their reaction was similar to that of tree bark. They all crowded towards others and towards the fire, so that they could stay warmer.
Although it was cold, I still couldn't resist the feeling of sleepiness, but what was uncomfortable was that between sleeping and not sleeping, the bark of the tree felt the urge to urinate.
But he didn't get up, partly because he was half asleep, and partly because it was too cold outside and he didn't want to go out.
Not to mention anything else, just listening to the faint sound of howling wind makes the tree bark not want to go outside.
However, such thoughts could not withstand the increasingly strong urge to urinate. After the tree bark stiffened here for a while, it finally gave in. He climbed up from the hay, wrapped the animal skin tightly around his body, and headed towards the exit of the cave.
Go in the direction.
He lifted up the smaller stone slab blocking the entrance of the cave, and the howling cold wind rushed in instantly.
Along with the cold wind, there were also some other things that hit my face, which were cool and painful.
It’s snowing?!
Shupi was shocked, he leaned the stone slab aside and squinted his eyes to look outside.
I saw a faint white light reflecting off the originally dark ground. It was obviously snowing.
The bark of the tree, which was originally trembling from the cold, became even more trembling after confirming that it was really snowing.
As a person of this era, he doesn't like snow at all.
The Black Stone Tribe does not have a calendar, so its understanding of the days of each year is naturally not as accurate as the Qingque Tribe's.
But I still have a general impression. You can tell from the bark of the tree that the snow fell much earlier this year than in previous years.
Because at this time, the leaves on the trees have not completely fallen, and many are still green.
There are also some small yellow flowers that are still blooming and have not withered.
In the past, even if it snowed early in the morning, it would only start to fall after all these things had withered and withered.
For primitive tribes, heavy snow often represents cold, hunger and death, especially if it falls prematurely.
This is simply a disaster!
After standing here in a daze for a while, the bark of the tree was blown awake by the cold wind.
It was snowing outside and there was such a cold wind blowing. He was not going to go outside to relieve himself.
Immediately, he stood at the entrance of the cave, exerted all his strength, and started to release the water in the face of the howling cold wind.
The physical quality of the tree bark is still very good, and despite such a cold wind, it was forced to the outside of the cave entrance.
If someone were to replace him with someone who was weak or older, I'm afraid he would be in trouble.
The released water will be returned to you by the warm cold wind before it hits the ground. It is no longer a legend that water cannot be recovered...
After shivering hard, Shubari quickly wrapped the animal skin around him, then quickly blocked the entrance of the cave with a stone slab, then trotted all the way back to his sleeping place with his arms curled up.
When he passed by, the place where he slept was already occupied.
Tree Bark was very capable of dealing with people who occupied his sleeping place in their sleep. He did not wake them up or drag them, but just lay down along the gap between the two people.
Go down and put your hands on the faces of the people on both sides.
The experience just now made his whole body freezing cold. When he came here, those who touched him suddenly got goosebumps on their bodies, and then quickly gave up the position he occupied.
The speed is simply not too fast.
Because of the falling snow outside, Bark lay here worried for a long time.
However, when he realized that he was no longer the leader of the tribe and was not at the bottom of the current Blackstone Tribe, and because the surrounding tribes had to make offerings, the Blackstone Tribe was not in short supply of food, he suddenly became worried.
Just disappeared.
He lay here, tightly wrapped in the animal skin, squeezing towards the fire, and soon fell asleep...
"#%56?!"
Early the next morning, after removing the stone slab blocking the door of the tribe's cave and looking at the white snow outside and the slowly falling snowflakes, someone suddenly shouted loudly.
After such a sound was heard, the cave immediately became lively, and everyone rushed to the entrance of the cave to look outside.
After seeing everything that turned white overnight, many people were stunned.
The leader of the Blackstone Tribe also looked a little dull.
After doing this for a while, he came to his senses.
"￥%6!"
The leader of the Blackstone Tribe began to shout and pointed his finger to the depths of the cave, where a large amount of food was stored.
After hearing the shout from the leader of the Black Stone Tribe and seeing the direction his hand was pointing, the people of the Black Stone Tribe were stunned for a moment and felt relieved.
Yes! They are no longer the weak tribe they were before. There is still a lot of food stored in their tribe's caves. Even if it snows now, they don't have to worry about anything.
As a result, the atmosphere in the tribe quickly became more relaxed.
Some people even feel very happy because after the heavy snow falls, they don't need to go outside to get food.
In the following days, I only need to eat, sleep, and hum a little tune when I have energy.
As for the activity of barking, it can no longer be carried out. This guy has now completely become one of his own, and his status in the tribe is not particularly low.
Feeling the changes in everyone, the leader of the Blackstone Tribe became happy.
I have food in my hands and don’t panic in my heart.
They couldn't summarize it in such pithy and concise words, but everyone in their tribe could basically understand it.
The tribes living around the Black Stone Tribe, such as the Grass Tribe, who had fish cages, bows and arrows, had similar reactions to the Black Stone Tribe after discovering that their eyes had become white overnight.
Although there is some fear and worry, there is also some peace of mind in this fear and worry.
After all, a lot of food has been stored in their tribe.
But not all tribesmen received these two artifacts like them.
After all, only a few people have these.
Those who had not saved enough food were stunned immediately after removing the stone slab blocking the cave entrance in the morning, and some people even cried directly.
Because for them, this surprise gift package given by God is really too big and unacceptable.
"we#4!"
The leader of a tribe wiped away his tears, shouted loudly, took out all the skins stored in the cave, and asked everyone in the tribe to wrap them in them.
Then, armed with simple weapons and tools, they led the tribe members and headed outside.
Walking on the snow, braving the cold wind, and being showered by falling snowflakes, I walked forward.
According to the past, this time could only be considered late autumn at best, and many fruits on the trees had not been picked yet. They could still get a lot of food despite the severe cold and snow when they went out.
Of course, you need to endure the cold, and you even have to be prepared for some people to get frostbite or freeze to death.
But, what else can you do if you don’t do this?
There are never quiet years in this world. When someone is carrying the burden for you, you can experience the quiet years. But when no one is carrying the burden for you, you have to bear it all yourself.
No matter what era you are in, it is not easy to live well.
There are many tribes and many people who have exhausted all their strength just to survive...
"Squeak~"
There was a creaking sound from the friction between the door shaft and the door lintel. The closed door opened from the inside. Compared with yesterday, Little Pea, who was wearing a layer of thicker clothes than yesterday, ran out of the room. He looked like a
Some are round and round, much like the panda Tuantuan who just sits there holding a piece of bamboo and chewing it as sugar cane when nothing happens.
The little pea with its short legs rolled out like a ball, followed by the little Xing'er who looked more like a ball.
His walking was not firm yet, and he staggered.
It's just that the child likes to play with older children, so he still moves his short legs and walks hard behind Little Pea.
Next up is Han Cheng, the nanny.
After looking at the two children for a while, Han Cheng looked elsewhere.
On the tribal haystacks, there is a patch of white flowers.
Those were not falling snowflakes, but frost flowers.
No wonder it was so cold last night and there was such a thick frost all at once!
Looking at these frost flowers, Han Cheng showed a look of enlightenment.
This time, the temperature dropped so much all of a sudden that it could be said to be a cold wave.
Fortunately, everything that the tribe should harvest has been harvested now. Except for the rapeseed with some small leaves, there is nothing in the field. Otherwise, the loss will be huge!
And these rapes are crops that can survive the winter. They are not afraid of heavy snow and ice in winter. Such frosts do not cause much damage to them.
Han Cheng thought happily.
But not long after, Han Cheng's expression suddenly changed.
After greeting Bai Xuemei and asking her to look at Xiao Wandou and his siblings, mainly Xiao Xing'er, Han Cheng hurriedly walked outside.
Before walking too far, Wu, Bugs Bunny and several others came in from the outside, looking sad and a little panicked.
As soon as Han Cheng saw this posture, he knew that something bad was going to happen in all likelihood, and his worries just now should have come true.
"God, son of God. Bai, cabbage, radish..."
Bugs Bunny stammered, unable to speak clearly.
At the same time, it also confirmed Han Cheng’s conjecture.
"Come on, come and have a look with me."
After Han Cheng nodded to Bugs Bunny, he said to Wu and the others, and then they all marched towards the vegetable field outside the tribe's wall.
Outside the Qingque Tribe, not too far from the threshing floor, there is a large piece of flat land, which is approximately seventy or eighty acres.
These lands are the vegetable gardens of the Qingque tribe.
One acre of garden equals ten acres of field, which is called a vegetable garden.
One acre equals ten acres refers not only to income, but also to labor intensity.
Taking care of the vegetable garden takes the most time, watering, weeding, picking insects, fertilizing... There is no leisure at all, and you have to go to the ground every day.
Of course, this is the vegetable garden of later generations, not the vegetable garden of the Qingque tribe.
In the vegetable garden of the Qingque Tribe, except for onions and garlic, most of the rest are planted in early autumn, radishes and cabbage that have not been successfully cultivated in the previous season, for winter consumption.
There are also some fields where some gray vegetables are planted in spring.
This is of course not because the people in the tribe are lazy, but because there are relatively few vegetables.
At this time in previous years, when these two vegetables, cabbage and radish, are working hard to grow and work hard for the final results, the entire vegetable garden seems to be thriving.
But now, this vegetable garden is indeed a miserable scene.
There were some purple radish leaves on the stems, and they were all frozen at this time. It was worse than the eggplants that had been hit by frost, and they looked as if they were cooked and scalded.
There are some frost flowers on the leaves of cabbage, and the situation looks better than that of radish.
However, it is quite miserable compared to before.
The cabbage of the Qingque tribe was cultivated step by step from rapeseed. Normally, you shouldn't be afraid of frost. After all, rapeseed can survive the winter.
But don’t forget one thing, and that is the planting time of cabbage and rapeseed.
The Chinese cabbage of the Qingque Tribe was planted in early autumn. By this time, the whole cabbage has bloomed. It is the time to prepare to wrap your head and gather your heart. If it is directly exposed to frost at this time, and it continues to be cold in the future, the cabbage will basically be damaged.
It will stop growing.
People grow cabbage just to eat it as a vegetable. If it stops growing at this time, the yield will basically be reduced by half, or even more!
Rapeseed is different. Rapeseed mainly requires rapeseeds. It stops or grows extremely slowly in winter, which does not affect its growth after spring...
