Reborn in the Age of Ancient Behemoths

Bai Xuan thought for a while after hearing this, then looked at Bai Yao and said: First dig a one meter wide wellhead!

If we dig to a depth of three or four meters and still have not dug out water, we will dig the well mouth and the well wider, and then build a ladder in the well, otherwise the well water will be too deep and it will be difficult to draw water from the ground.

"Dig a well one meter wide first, right? Then let's dig it quickly!" After Bai Yao finished speaking, he bent down, picked up a hoe, and walked towards the place closest to Bai Xuan's house where the white smoke appeared.

Seeing this, Bai Rui and others also took hoes and shovels and walked over there.

Seeing that everyone had passed by, Bai Xuan picked up the bamboo basket and followed them.

When Bai Xuan walked over, Bai Yao and others had already started digging.

When the man with the shovel saw Bai Xuan bringing the bamboo basket over, he separated the stacked bamboo baskets and placed them on the ground. He started using the shovel and poured the soil dug out into the bamboo basket.

Seeing that he couldn't dig or shovel the soil, Bai Xuan picked up the bamboo basket full of soil and poured it to other places where the soil could be poured.

Ten minutes later.

"There is water, there is water, the water is coming out of the ground." Bai Yao, who was digging dirt at the bottom of a well more than two meters deep, looked at the little turbidity that appeared immediately after he dug a hoe. of muddy water, shouting happily.

Bai Rui, Bai Xiao, and Bai Ze, who were also at the bottom of the well, heard the words and stopped digging and shoveling the soil into the bamboo basket. They walked quickly to Bai Yao and looked at the water that was slowly increasing in front of them. , said happily: Water was really dug out.

Bai Xuan and Bai Xuan, who were on the land above the well, heard the words and lay down at the mouth of the well. While looking into the well, they asked: Has water really been dug out?

"Sister Xuan, brother Bai Xuan, the water has really been dug out," Bai Yao, one of Bai Rui and others who heard Bai Xuan and Bai Xuan's voices at the bottom of the well, looked up in the direction of the wellhead and shouted.

Bai Xuan heard this and shouted towards the well: Then come up quickly! Bai Yao.

"We'll dig for a while and then come up," Bai Yao replied after hearing this.

Bai Xuan thought for a while after hearing this, and felt that the water should not rise very high in a while, so he shouted towards the well: "Okay! Then you guys come up early, and you have to pick up small stones and spread them at the bottom of the well!"

"Okay, we get it," Bai Yao and the others said after hearing this.

After hearing this, Bai Xuan continued to lie at the mouth of the well and looked into the well.

After a while.

"Bai Xuan, pull the rope," Bai Ze from the bottom of the well shouted toward the wellhead.

When Bai Xuan heard this, he immediately stood up and walked aside.

Bai Xuan, who was also lying at the wellhead and looking into the well, quickly stood up after hearing this, bent down and pulled up a rope held down by stones beside the wellhead.

One end of the rope was under the stone and the other end was at the bottom of the well. After Bai Xuan pulled it, he kept collecting the rope at the bottom of the well.

After a while, Bai Xuan pulled up the rope at the bottom of the well. At the same time, a bamboo basket filled with soil tied to the rope was pulled out of the well mouth.

Bai Xuan lifted the bamboo basket and placed it on the open space next to the wellhead. He untied the rope tied to the rope of the bamboo basket. Bai Xuan directly put the pulled rope back into the well.

After the rope was put down, Bai Xuan turned around, picked up the bamboo basket filled with soil, and walked to the place where the soil was poured.

After Bai Xuan left the well, he carried an animal skin bag and went to pick up stones on the rocky beach of the Blue River.

Half an hour later.

When Bai Xuan returned to the well, Bai Yao and others had already come out of the well.

How did Bai Xuan know? Because as soon as Bai Xuan landed on the ground, he saw Bai Rui and others digging soil not far from Bai Yao's house.

Bai Xuan put down the animal skin bag, walked up to Bai Rui and others, and said hello to Bai Rui and others.

Bai Xuan looked at Bai Yao and asked: Bai Yao, have you laid small stones at the bottom of the well over there?

When Bai Yao heard this, he looked at Bai Xuan and nodded, saying: "It's paved. We picked up the small stones in the creek."

By the way, Sister Xuan, where were you just now?

Bai Xuan: I went to pick up stones at the rocky beach of Blue River. The well must be paved with stones on all sides, otherwise the well will collapse easily.

Larger stones can be laid faster, so I went to the Blue River Rock Beach to find stones.

Hearing this, Bai Yao looked at Bai Xuan and asked: Sister Xuan, did you bring back enough stones?

"It's not enough. I have to pick up three or four bags of stones." Bai Xuan said after hearing this.

"Sister Xuan, how big of a stone do you want? I'll pick it up," Bai Yao looked at Bai Xuandao.

"Any stone larger than two fists or half as small as a stone jar will do," Bai Xuandao said.

"That's it! Then I will go back to the living room to take the animal skin bag and go to the Blue River Rock Beach to pick up stones. Sister Xuan, don't go. You can stay here and spread the stones you brought back here on the four sides of the well." After Bai Yao finished speaking, he put down his bone hoe, turned around and walked towards his own dam.

Bai Xuan was about to say something when he saw this, but Bai Yao walked away. Bai Rui and the others who were digging and shoveling soil next to him, after listening to the conversation between Bai Xuan and Bai Xuan, put down their bone picks and shovels one after another, and headed towards Bai Yao's house. Walking in the direction of Bazi, he said: "I'll go too."

"Brother, don't go, help me lay the stones"! Bai Xuan quickly called out to Bai Xuan, who was walking the slowest.

Bai Xuan stopped when he heard this, turned around and looked at Bai Xuando: Okay, little sister.

Bai Xuan: Brother, let’s quickly lay stones in the well!

Otherwise, there will be too much water in the well later and we will not be able to go down.

After Bai Xuan finished speaking, he picked up the two bamboo baskets that were not filled with soil, turned around and walked in the direction of the dug well.

Seeing this, Bai Xuan followed Bai Xuan over there and said, "Little sister, don't worry, there is too much water in the well and you can't go down. There shouldn't be much water in the well now."

After the well was paved with stones, the water from the bottom was not mixed in as quickly as before the stones were paved.

Bai Xuan, who had already walked to the place where he put the animal skin bag, put down the bamboo basket, stretched out his hand to untie the rattan at the mouth of the animal skin bag, and said: "Oh! That's it!"

After Bai Xuan finished speaking, he threw down the rattan that had just been untied from the mouth of the animal skin bag, opened the animal skin bag, reached into the animal skin bag and took out the stone.

After Bai Xuan took the stone out of the animal skin bag, he put it into the bamboo basket.

When Bai Xuan saw this, he looked at Bai Xuando and said, "Little sister, I'll pick up the stones. You go and have a rest first!"

After Bai Xuan finished speaking, when Bai Xuan took out the stone from the animal skin bag again and put it into the bamboo basket, Bai Xuan directly reached out and lifted the animal skin bag in front of him.

After Bai Xuan placed the stone, he saw that the animal skin bag containing the stone was already in front of Bai Xuan. Bai Xuan took out the end of the rope that was pressed with a stone in the open space next to the wellhead, took it out from under the stone, and tied it to On a tree trunk not far from the stone.

After tying it up, Bai Xuan listened to Bai Xuan and rested aside.

The reason why Bai Xuan did not choose to carry the bamboo basket with stones to the bottom of the well and start laying stones from bottom to top was because Bai Xuan had not laid stones on all four sides of the well, and he would have to teach Bai Xuan how to lay stones later. Bai Xuan didn't go down to lay the stones in advance.

Although Bai Xuan had not laid stones on the four sides of the well, Bai Xuan had seen wells dug manually instead of using machines in his previous life.
