World of Beasts: Green Snake, please pet it gently

……

"Boom."

"Click"

A huge bolt of lightning pierced the night, and An Ran suddenly woke up from her sleep and sat up.

Chang Liu noticed something strange about her and woke up.

He looked at the thunderstorm outside: "It's okay, it's just thunder."

An Ran was not afraid of thunder and rain, it was just that it came too suddenly and he was suddenly awakened.

"Crash la la la..."

It was windy and rainy outside, and it soon became a little cold in the cave.

An Ran lay in his solid arms and thought thoughtfully: "Chang Liu, have we put away all our things in such a heavy rain?"

"Don't worry, the cave is located very high, nothing will happen."

"What about the firewood?"

Chang Liu patted her shoulder: "We have made a straw shed, and it is under a tree. If it gets wet, it will only wet the bottom layer. Sleep peacefully."

"Ah."

However, An Ran is still a little scared. She has been here for so long, not to mention, except for snow in winter, she has never seen rain.

In the memory of my mind, it seems that it rains every summer, but this is the first time I have seen such a sudden heavy rain.

"Crack!"

"Boom"

The lightning outside seemed to be about to crack a crack in the ground before stopping.

The heavy rain lasted for three consecutive days before it cleared up.

An Ran and Chang Liu stood at the door of their cave, unable to go out for a walk because the ground was covered with mud.

In the past few days, people like Chang Liu and Niu Li distributed the food in batches. Everyone's food was a bit rudimentary, so they ate whatever they had.

It would be great if there was a concrete floor. No matter how heavy the rain is, there is no need to worry about the muddy road.

"Chang Liu, how many green bricks are left in our warehouse?"

"There's a lot left, what's wrong?"

An Ran pointed to the dirt road outside: "What do you think it would be like if we paved all these must-pass roads with blue bricks?"

Chang Liu's eyes lit up: "Then when we walk around the tribe, we will never step on mud again."

"This is good, I'll let someone get it now."

An Ran saw that he was about to step out and grabbed him: "Why are you in a hurry? We'll do it when the road is almost dry. There's a lot of mud on it now and it's hard to get rid of it."

Chang Liu shook his head and said with a self-deprecating smile: "Look at me, I've forgotten all about it."

In just two days, the ground was almost dry.

But the most important thing is not to lay the floor tiles, but to refine the silver ore!

An Ran and Chang Liu carried a lot of firewood and piled it next to the new cave dwelling. They mixed it with sawdust and smashed silver ore foam, and placed it on a small platform next to the entrance of the cave. Inside was a circle of clay balls. Adobe earthenware jar.

After placing it, the kiln mouth was sealed layer by layer, and then a fire was lit next to it.

Yu Fei squatted aside curiously, staring at the blazing fire inside: "An Ran, clan leader, is this really better than the stone pot?"

An Ran was not sure whether he could succeed this time: "Let's give it a try."

"The green bricks are made of mud. Let's see if this one can be made like that."

Yu Fei nodded. The blue bricks were also made of mud. Once burned by the flames, they become as hard as stone. This should be fine too.

If that were the case, wouldn't they be able to burn whatever they wanted from now on?

An Ran didn't know how to bake, but she knew that if she wanted to bake good pottery, she had to increase the temperature in the kiln.

I can only explore slowly and slowly. This is not as casual as firing green bricks, and it requires high temperature control.

An Ran held a large pile of good firewood in his arms. They were all tree root knots dug in the forest. Even after burning, the temperature generated by those tree trunks was higher.

They were all chopped into long strips and thrown in one by one.

The temperature soon rose, and she didn't dare to go near it, but she had to add firewood inside.

Seeing that she couldn't stand the heat, Chang Liu took the firewood in her hand and said, "I'll do it."

An Ran: "Then be careful."

Chang Liu stood on the spot and threw it in quickly and accurately.

An Ran gave a thumbs up in admiration: "Awesome!"

But all the firewood was piled at the entrance of the cave, so Yu Fei found a long stick and stuffed it all in.

"An Ran, how long will this take to burn?"

An Ran didn't know either: "Let it burn for three days and give it a try."

The three of them were very anxious and took turns to guard here. After three days, when the fire was almost done, they sealed the entrance of the cave.

"When it's completely cold inside, we'll open the kiln."

Yu Fei walked away in two steps and turned around. He really wanted to know whether the clay pot she made with her own hands was burnt.

Back in the tribe, An Ran and Chang Liu immediately put the matter of paving green bricks on the agenda.

Niu Li's bricklaying job is very good, so let him join us to discuss it.

First, start from the square and do it bit by bit.

Niu Li said doubtfully: "An Ran, do all these have to be paved?"

An Ran nodded: "Pave everything here in the square, and then pave a few roads to the entrances of various caves."

"Lay the first layer first, then the second layer, staggering the first and second layers."

Niu Li: "Okay, no problem."

The patriarch gave him some advice on this matter two days ago. He tried to lay some at night when he had nothing to do at home, and found out how to lay it most appropriately.

An Ran: "The square is completely paved, but the big tree in the middle will not be moved. When the time comes, it will leave a circular shape and make a garden."

Niu Li was a little confused: "What is a garden?"

safely:……

It was careless. Her father was a contractor. During the summer vacation in high school, he went to the construction site with him and saw how those people built gardens.

Forget Niu Li, they don’t understand.

"Just leave a big circle when the time comes, and I'll make up for it."

"Row."

Niu Li rubbed his hands, eager to start work now.

"An Ran, patriarch, it's nothing. I'll go down and get the tools now."

Chang Liu waved his hand: "Go and do your work."

When Niu Li heard this, he ran away excitedly, and soon came over with a hoe, leveling the uneven ground bit by bit.

Then he ran to carry his brick-laying tools and green bricks, picked a corner and started stacking them bit by bit.

This small piece of green brick flooring does not need to be as troublesome as ceramic tiles. You only need to loosen the soil on the ground first, and then put it in bit by bit.

In just half a day, Niu Li mastered the essence and quickly became comfortable with it.

An Ran and Chang Liu were helping the one doing the soil and the other carrying the bricks.

In one day, they covered a large corner of the tribal square.

An Ran straightened up and punched her lower back tiredly: "Niu Li, I see you are doing so well, why don't you find some helpers."

"You are too tired to be alone."

However, Niu Li said without raising his head: Not tired! "

He has never had this sense of accomplishment, not even hunting.

Looking at the city wall that he and his people built brick by brick, he felt extremely proud. If he had built the entire tribe's roads, then he would be content in this life.

However, Chang Liu disagreed: "You should find two helpers and try to finish it before the rainy season."

When Niu Li heard the word "rainy season", his heart sank. If he was the only one, he would definitely not be able to complete it before the rainy season.

If you can't finish it, will it be washed away by the mud?

When he thought of the consequences of this matter, he immediately nodded: "Okay, I will go find the two of them tonight."

In the evening, the afterglow of the setting sun shines on the Qingshan tribe, turning orange everywhere, which is really beautiful.

Jin Hu led the hunting team back with a fruitful harvest, and Xia Sheng also led the trench diggers back. Everyone was beaming.

At this time, Uncle Haguro also rushed over to take the meat and served it on the spot.

The happiest time of every day is now, when there is meat to eat!

After a day's work, the males would brag among the tribe.

Suddenly, Jin Hu spotted the blue brick in the corner with sharp eyes, and curiously went over and stepped on it.

"Hey, why are you putting the green bricks here?"

When Niu Li saw someone asking about his masterpiece, he immediately ran over excitedly: "Brother, how are you? The patriarch, An Ran, and I spent a whole day building this."

At this time, He Lin, Xia Sheng, Shui Hua, Hu Bing and others gathered around.

They left the tribe early in the morning, and now they discovered that there was such a strange thing.

He Lin also stepped on it: "What is this?"

Niu Li pretended to smile mysteriously: "Hey, this is the idea of ​​the clan leader and An Ran. They plan to pave the entire tribe with blue bricks."

"In the future, we will be able to walk around the tribe even on rainy days."

Upon hearing this, everyone stood excitedly and stepped on it. It was indeed much better than the mud.

Some people even stamped their feet vigorously: "Hey, this is really good."

Shuihua also walked around on it twice: "If all our caves were covered with this, it would be much cleaner."

"Yes, yes, there will be no dust in the future." Hu Bing also agreed.

Niu Li happened to see two males in the crowd. They had built the city wall with him last time, and they happened to be fine these days.

Then he walked over and said, "Black dog, yellow dog, why don't you come and shop with me tomorrow?"

“We will try to finish it before the rainy season comes!”

"When the time comes we..."

Before he finished speaking, Hei Gou interrupted with an unkind expression: "Stop it, I'm not free tomorrow, you can find someone else."

Niu Li was very puzzled. He had been playing for several days, but suddenly something happened tomorrow: "What do you want to do tomorrow?"

The black dog rolled his eyes: "I want to bask in the sun tomorrow."
