Elven settlers

Chapter 112

After packing the ten saddles, Rock put them on the Maari sheep, and then immediately walked back with them.

At this time, the bay leaves have already been transported for the first time.

The weight-bearing capacity of these Maari sheep is limited, so under the premise of ensuring that they will not be overtired, each Maari sheep cannot carry a few stones.

Fortunately, they can take turns with their companions, so Rock doesn't have to worry about getting tired of them.

The distance between the quarry and the camp was about four kilometers, and it took exactly half an hour for Rock to return to the camp with the Mare sheep.

They unloaded stones on the north side of the camp, which was the location Rock had chosen to start the vegetable garden.

This place is only about 400 meters away from his camp, just a little bit northwest of the camp, and in simple terms, it is on the edge of the line connecting the camp and the bee farm.

The vegetable garden planned by Rock is a square with a length of 200 meters and a width of 200 meters, surrounded by low stone walls one meter high on all sides.

Inside, two stone pavements, one horizontal and one vertical, divide the garden into four areas.

In the future, there will be more and more shepherd elves in Rock's territory. Shepherd elves usually don't have the idea of ​​climbing over railings or walls.

Building a low stone wall can simply prevent them from eating the vegetables inside, and it can also prevent weeds from spreading into the vegetable bed and robbing nutrients.

It took Rock, Bay Leaf, and the bale sheep three full days of transportation before they collected enough stones to build the garden wall.

The next step is to build a stone wall, because it is only a one-meter-high low wall, so Rock does not need to use too good cementitious materials.

He just dug some light yellow clay from the semicircle bend of the Jingkong River as a material to fill the gap.

All the materials are ready, and Rock needs to clear out the weeds in the vegetable garden before starting work.

This time, with the help of bay leaf's inter-cutting, Hei Lujia no longer needs to "gnaw grass" with his flame teeth.

"Yeah!"

I saw the bay leaf running along the area marked by Rock, the sickle leaf above its head flickered coldly, and as it ran, it cut off all the weeds around it.

After clearing the weeds, it's Arbor's turn to show up.

It burrows into the soil, turning up grass roots and soil along the edge of the site.Rock, who was following Arbor, took a shovel and quickly dug out an isolation belt.

Finally came Hei Lujia's favorite part.

After the isolation zone was dug, it excitedly spit out jet flames, burning all the vegetation in the site to black ash.

Every time the ashes left by land reclamation were collected by Rock, they were stored in several worm boxes.

These plant ashes have many uses, they can be used as fertilizer for planting, and can also be mixed with water to degrease fur.

The ground had been cleared, and Rock began digging trenches along the sides of the planned vegetable garden.

The ditch he dug was 35 centimeters wide and [-] centimeters deep, and it was the foundation of the wall.

After the gates were reserved on the north and south sides, Rock officially began to build the wall.

He spread the wet clay on the bottom of the ditch first, and then laid a layer of stones on it, and filled the gaps between the stones and the stones with clay.

Since the stone wall on one side is 200 meters long, Rock chose to build it in sections.

He first laid a layer of 20-meter-long stones on the bottom of the lowest ditch, and then laid a layer of 19-meter-long stones on the first layer of stones.

Each layer of stone blocks is reduced by one meter, so that the connection of each section of the stone wall will become very tight, and the whole wall will be integrated.

But at the beginning, because Rock had no experience, he only built a section of wall on the first day.

By the next day the situation was better and he was able to build two sections of the wall.

On the third day, Rock became proficient at stacking stones. At the same time, his speed reached the limit he could do so far, and he could build four sections of walls in one day.

At this rate, it will take another eight to nine days for Rock to complete the stone wall of the vegetable garden.

Building a stone wall is a lot of fun, a bit like trying to put together a puzzle with no exact answer.

The size and shape of each stone are different. What Rock needs to do is to arrange and combine these stones so that the different stones are closely combined with each other to form a regular wall.

Because stone is not a standard square shape, each stone wall is different, and each stone wall has its own unique texture, representing the condensation of the wisdom of the builder.

Rock enjoyed the process of building the stone walls.

Holding a stone in his hand, he turned over and over at the gap in the stone wall.

After confirming that it was roughly suitable, Rock took a hammer and tapped on the stone to smash off the inappropriate places, and then filled the gap with the stone tightly.

Stones of different shapes turned into a solid and neat stone wall in Rock's hands.

On the stone wall, light gray, blue-white, and light red stones are interlaced with each other, and the stones are connected by light yellow clay to form lines.

The colors of nature are matched in this wall to form a beautiful picture.

Rock looked at the beautiful low stone wall and felt a sense of accomplishment in his heart.

He has built more than 300 meters of stone walls, the west wall of the vegetable garden has been completely finished, and now he is building the north wall.

Under the action of gravity, the stone blocks are locked to each other, making the stone wall so strong that Heluga can even walk on it.

The north wall of the vegetable garden is divided into two parts because of the reserved gate position.

By the time the sun was about to set, Rock had already built half of the north wall.

"Let's go, go back to eat."

Rock took off his shirt from the stone wall that had been built, put it on his shoulders, and returned to the camp with the Arbo monster who had been working with him all day.

In the distance, the bay leaves brought the Maari sheep back to the camp, and the setting sun dyed the Maari sheep's hair golden red.

Hei Lujia was hunting today, and it got a good harvest, and even brought back a Dudu.

Rock has already eaten most of the wild elves in the territory.

Depending on the elves that the family goes out to hunt, there will be some differences in the prey they hunt.

Roque also has some experience in this regard.

Arbomon is better at catching bird Pokémon and mouse Pokémon. The most are Bibi and Lada, followed by sparrow and toucan, and occasionally a mountain rat is caught.

And Heluga's hunting range is wide, Nidolan, Nidolang, Dudu, Carp King, Odachi, etc., as long as it runs on the ground, it wants to catch it and taste it.

Among them, there are many Pokémon that cannot be eaten at all or are very difficult to eat. Rock also stepped on many pits with Heluga.

Through the prey brought back by the elves these days, Roque has a deeper understanding of the types and distribution of Pokémon in his territory.

In general, the species is still very rich, even without counting the southern bay.

Rock thought silently in his heart.

　ok!
