Beginning Backpack [Farming]

In the early morning, Shen Huaijin woke up to the sound of insects and birds singing. He rubbed his face, took a deep breath and smelled the smell of rice and sunshine.

He woke up violently, and the two of them slowly woke up in bed for a while, then got up and went out to wash up, and started the day's work amidst the sound of cooking.

After the rice is threshed, it should be aired in time to reduce its water content to prevent the rice from sprouting or moldy.

If the courtyard house has been built, the open space enclosed in the middle can be used as a sunbathing area, but for now, the square is still more open.

Shen Huaijin and Li then carried the newly harvested rice, bamboo rafts for drying things, brooms and rakes back and forth to the opposite bank.

The sub-beast and the orcs who were washing saw them carrying things over and over again, so they hurriedly helped to remove the wooden pier on the square to make a large space.

The two arranged the old and new bamboo rafts one by one and spliced ​​them together to create a square area as a sun-drying area.After fully unfolding, he rubbed his chin, frowned and asked worriedly: "Jin, we don't have many bamboo rafts, can we spread all the rice?"

"It's okay." Shen Huaijin waved his hand, and said indifferently: "It doesn't matter if the pavement is thicker, just turn it a few more times. In comparison, it will be troublesome to clean up after the rice is stained with sand or something."

The square is already a relatively clean place in the valley. The land is compacted and there will be no messy weeds, but dirty things are inevitable, especially the small stones that are not much different in size. It is difficult to be sifted out by bamboo strips, and it will be really uncomfortable if you bite it while eating.

"Come on, let's pour out the millet."

"Okay." Li nodded, and together with Shen Huaijin, he carried a basket of rice on the side. The muscle lines of the two of them were very smooth and beautiful. When the hands on the bottom of the rattan basket were stretched hard, the rice in the basket rattled. The ground flowed down like a golden rain.

Shen Huaijin patted the bottom of the basket to make sure there was no rice left behind before putting the basket aside.

Following Shen Huaijin's example, An Zheng brushed his teeth with a soft branch, spit out the salt grains in his mouth quickly, rinsed his mouth casually, and walked over.Not only him, but others with free hands came out to help, and everyone dumped the rice in the rattan basket on the bamboo raft one by one.

Shen Huaijin picked up the grain rake on the side, and shoveled towards the sharp tips of the golden yellow grain piles, raking it again and again, raking it evenly.

After spreading out the thirty baskets of rice, Shen Huaijin put the rake aside, let out a sigh of relief, and looked with satisfaction at the golden-like grains on the ground under the warm sunlight.

The Asian beasts on the side said one after another: "Jin, go back and do your own business. Anyway, there will always be someone guarding the square, and everyone can take turns turning the millet for you."

"Then I'll trouble everyone." Shen Huaijin's smile was overflowing, and without making any excuses, she thanked her and returned to the other side of the stream with Li.

As long as the weather doesn't suddenly turn bad, the rice will dry out after a few days in the sun, and Shen Huaijin has nothing else to do during the next period, so she can finally continue to build her own brick house.

Most of the wall of the east wing has been built, and the side is supported by thick old bamboos that are deeply embedded in the ground.Shen Huaijin was standing on the side, gesturing with Li on how to build the roof.

The silver-haired orc looked at the numerous data and views from multiple angles on the drawing, and said in silence for a long time, "Why don't you command me after I go up?"

"……it is good."

The wood that had been dried in the shade for two years was brought over with the help of familiar orcs, and some of them had already been split into planks as needed.

The roof needs to bear the weight of the tiles, so the selected girders are very thick, and it may not be safe for only one person. Fortunately, other orcs came to help.

The beams are supported by wooden columns, the beams are arched, and the design of the slope allows the roof to drain water more easily during the rainy season.The dense wooden strips are placed side by side on the roof beams and eaves, forming the main body of the roof.

Shen Huaijin ran from the south to the north, raised his head and directed in circles. Just when he thought his neck was tired, a force came from behind him, lifting him off the ground.

Shen Huaijin was startled, and turned around to find that there were three little longhorned beasts surrounding her, lifting herself up with their strong and powerful proboscis.

Although the longhorn beasts are "small", they are actually taller than ordinary orcs, not to mention their strong muscles and strong proboscis. The strength of the three heads is more than enough to support Shen Huaijin.

They carefully moved Shen Huaijin to the tallest and strongest dark gray back, and cried out twice excitedly.Shen Huaijin understood what they meant, touched the neck of the longhorn beast in front of him, and said warmly, "Thank you then, Dark Gray."

The dark gray nose lifted, and it carried Shen Huaijin on its back, slowly circling around the house under construction.

Shen Huaijin felt relieved now, he didn't have to lift his neck stiffly anymore, he only needed to raise his head a little, and he could easily talk to everyone on the roof, and pass tools to everyone by the way, saving them from running up and down.

Shen Huaijin took over the plank rolled up by the longhorn beast with its nose, and passed it to Li on the roof diagonally.These wooden boards laid on the rafters are called watch boards, on which mud backs are applied and then covered with tiles to achieve the effect of waterproofing and heat preservation.

It's just that one day is only enough for everyone to lay the wooden frame. Now that the sun is setting, the rest will have to wait until the next day.

Shen Huaijin looked at the very different houses, and his heart was as sweet as eating candied fruit. He, who has always paid attention to you and me, was deeply moved by the tribe's dedication without asking for anything in return.It's just that he said too many words of thanks in the past two days, and he was at a loss for words for a while.

Li noticed his embarrassment, patted his back lightly with his broad palm, politely sent the orcs away, took the dustpan and broom, and greeted, "Let's go, go harvest the millet." .”

Shen Huaijin followed the orcs step by step, he let out a long breath, and whispered: "Everyone is so enthusiastic."

Because he was holding something in his hand, Li couldn't touch him, and there was a slight smile on his sideways face, "How did you find this out?"

Shen Huaijin took the two dustpans in Li's hand, her voice was still soft, as if it could be easily blown away by the wind, "I am a person with a sense of boundaries, I am used to the life of equal value exchange, and I think that is the best thing to do. A comfortable state and way of getting along. It is only now that I realize that if the other party is regarded as a close existence like a family member, the occasional unequal contribution will be more touching. Because it is not a material burden, but an emotional burden ties."

Li touched his black and smooth ponytail that reached below his shoulders with his free hand, his eyes were focused, and his voice was clear without any haze, "I don't know what you mean by "sense of boundary" and "equivalent" Meaning, I only know that everyone is willing to help you because they saw your kindness to the tribe. You deserve all of this, because they all come from your continuous efforts.”

Shen Huaijin was taken aback for a moment, then slowly smiled under the warm light of sunset.

"Let's go, the millet will be cold any longer."

"Ah."

Now the sun is slanting to the west, and only a small piece of rice can still receive sunlight, exuding a warm golden light.

The two of them swept the rice on the bamboo rafts together with a broom and piled them into small piles, then scooped up a large handful with the dustpan and poured them into the rattan baskets, just like when they were poured out in the morning, a splendid scene fell. golden rain.

When the rice falls, there is a rustling and interlacing sound, and the fragrance of the millet and the breath of sunshine come from the bottom of the basket, which is the smell of a good harvest.

The glutinous rice and the non-glutinous rice were put into separate baskets again. This time, for the sake of convenience and trouble, Shen Huaijin and Li directly took them to the pharmacy. After all, there was no other use there at present, and it would be no problem to pile up the rice for a few days.

Shen Huaijin stood in a strange yet familiar medicine house, thinking that in the first few days when she first arrived, she could only hide here, carefully observing the outside world through the cracks.At that time, I was so nervous that I only wanted to survive in the mouth of this group of terrifying beasts that could transform, so how dare I expect to get along well now.

Looking back now, it seems like a lifetime away.

Suddenly there was a chuckle in his ear, and Li Chang's arms wrapped around him, pressing him down.

"I remember when you were sitting in this dark room, but your eyes were shining, and you looked at me with a cold face. When I threatened you, not only were you not afraid at all, but you also responded with the orc language you just learned." Li Yu With a smile, "I have never seen such a reckless and ignorant little beast like you. At that time, I just wanted to teach you a good lesson."

Shen Huaijin was so pressed by his sideways body that she couldn't lift her head up, but she rolled her eyes with great effort when she heard the words, "I really didn't think wrong, you are really arrogant."

Li laughed twice, "That's right, I was really arrogant at that time." He untied Shen Huaijin's hair rope, and his shiny black hair fell into the palm of his hand like a waterfall.

"What are you doing?" Shen Huaijin muttered softly.

He felt that the orc behind him was brushing the hair on the back of his neck with his rough and hot hands, and his fingertips were slowly and gently scratching the skin of the back of his neck.

"The other day you came to me because of your backpack and said you wanted to challenge me. I took it as a joke at the time." Having said this, Li lightly sneered, and the movements of his hands became more serious, "But you turned around and walked towards the sun. When I saw your skin here, it was so white and tender compared with the black hair, I thought..."

The orc's voice was hoarse, and he murmured and repeated.

"I must win you."

Shen Huaijin smiled. He took down the troublesome big hand, turned around and raised his jaw slightly, exposing his delicate neck and protruding Adam's apple without hesitation.

"Actually, I won."

Li let out a deep sigh from his throat, his breathing was a little short, his green eyes flickered in the dimness, "Yes, you won."

"You won me over."

The sky was completely dark, and a dim floor lamp was lit on the square. The light slipped through the crack of the door, casting their embracing figures on the wall.
