"In this case, I'm not going to be polite, you two, go to the place I've drawn over there, and dig a ditch along that line, the ditch should be as deep as your knees."

"You two, go over there, move the mud bricks for 20 yuan, and I will teach you how to build a pot."

"Others wait first, or go to help dig the pit. When the tunnel over there is dug, we need everyone to help build the upper part." Bai Xiong led the patriarch Bai Ying, witch doctors Bai Hu and Bai Kui, and used The well-mixed and viscous silt was used to build a small pot on one side of the pit. The place where the pot was emitting smoke just connected to the side of the tunnel, and left along the tunnel from the other end.

The smoke with hot gas will slowly warm the ground above, and keep the interior of the ground building dry, and because only the smoke passes through the bottom of the building, it will not cause the ground temperature to be too high to scald the chicken bastard.

After the tunnel was dug, Bai Xiong directed everyone to reinforce the walls and bottom of the tunnel with cut stone slabs, so that the building above would be stronger, and then build a wall on it to a height of about half a person. At that time, a roof was added on it, and the roof made of hay was made into a large slope, so that the rainwater fell on the roof and would immediately flow down the roof.

Two small ditches were dug under the eaves for water diversion, and three simple stone bridges were built on top of the ditches. The chicks could walk along the stone bridges to the house, and the ditches were so shallow that even if they fell, they would not be able to fall. There is no danger. Building a bridge is just another fun item for the chicks. After all, children are full of curiosity. Who wouldn't like a fun stone bridge?

The whole tribe worked together, and in the evening, this strangely shaped little house was built.

"Will this make the little chickens no longer get cold?" The witch doctor Bai Huan is the most curious about this question. After all, making the little chickens survive the rainy season is what she has been working on for so many years. Now, Baixiong has provided her with a brand new way of thinking, so she is inevitably a little anxious.

"My lord witch doctor, you can't put the chicken in it yet. You see, here is a place where you can burn a fire. I lit a pile of fire here, and the smoke after burning passes through the tunnel you dug just now and passes under the small house. The smoke will dry the ground very dry. During the rainy season, as long as the fire is kept alive, the small house will be warm and dry all day long, and the chicks will stay inside without getting cold. There will be no rain, and there will be no insects, and insects are very afraid of fire."

"Won't that little chick be hot?" Bai Hu asked.

"Will it be hot? Everyone can try it later. I'm lighting a fire here now. Everyone can try it later. It's the first time I've done it. If it's too hot inside, it's still far from the rainy season." It's been a long time, and there's still time to change it slowly." Bai Xiong told the truth that he had never done this kind of thing, but just made a simple design and inference based on some principles remembered in his mind. The actual effect depends on the specifics. of the situation.

In order to ensure the effect of the experiment, the fire on Baixiong's side has been burning for a full two hours. The stove is empty anyway. Baixiong thought about it and asked the tribe who is good at catching fish to catch it in the nearby river. A few big fish, make some fish soup for everyone to drink.

While waiting for the fish catcher to come back, Bai Xiong took out a handful of grass seeds that had been soaked for a long time, washed them clean, rubbed off the outer layer of shell in the water vigorously, leaving only the kernels inside. After rubbing the grass seeds, there is only a small handful of kernels left.

However, these are enough for his Xiao Hei to eat two meals. After all, the newborn chicken cubs should eat less and more meals. He put the rubbed grass seeds into the stone pot and cooked them While stirring the bottom of the pot with a wooden spoon, wait until the water in the stone pot is boiled dry, remove the grass seeds, let them cool down, and use two washed leaves of ashweed as a pad, and only take twenty or thirty grains. Go to feed Xiao Hei.

Xiao Hei (Yun Xiao) had actually woken up a long time ago, but because there were people from the tribe outside, even the patriarch and the witch doctor, he was worried that his appearance would bring trouble to his eldest brother, so Xiao Hei kept curling up obediently beside him. In the miniature chicken coop made for him, black bean-like eyes kept circling Baixiong. Seeing the elder brother feeding him with food, he whispered happily twice. The chirping sound made people's hearts soften A bar of hot spring water.

"Xiao Hei, eat quickly!" Bai Xiong carried him out of the warm chicken coop, and placed him next to the big leaves of the ash vegetable with an encouraging face.The gray vegetable leaves, which are as big as two palms of an adult, make Xiao Hei look like a weak, helpless and pitiful little hairball.Seeing this strange and cute scene, the other pheasants in the tribe couldn't help but soften their hearts. Although they didn't want the outside chickens to divide the food and hunting grounds that belonged to their tribe chicks, but, Xiao Hei from Baixiong's family is also too cute, right?

Cuteness is justice!

"Xiao Hei? Who is Xiao Hei?" Yun Xiao tried to look up at his elder brother with a dazed face, but it was probably because his body was too round and he tried to raise his head, but his buttocks were stuck on the big leaves of Huihuicai. Looks... a little silly.

"Hahahaha~" The surrounding audience laughed loudly and unceremoniously, even Bai Xiong couldn't help laughing.That's the thing with cubs, and any stupid move looks cute.Especially Xiaohei's face of "who am I, where am I and what am I doing?" It's a pity that there is no camera here, otherwise I can take pictures and make a set of emoticons hahaha, it's like childhood black history!

Yun Xiao climbed up from the leaves in shame and anger, tried to spread a pair of fleshy little wings, and pretended to attack, but because the fluff on his body was too long, it looked like a ball of hair suddenly protruding. With two short hands, the aggressiveness is not obvious. Anyway, the pheasants onlookers laughed even louder.

Even Bai Ying, the always serious patriarch, couldn't help rubbing her sore cheeks from laughing, nodded in satisfaction, and encouraged the little hairy dumpling: "Not bad, not bad! You are very imposing when you are just hatched, and you will definitely fight in the tribe when you grow up." A good hand!"

Bai Xiong: "..." Publicly encourage children to fight mischievously, patriarch, are you serious?

"Okay, okay, let's spread out, let Baixiong accompany the little guy, when the little chickens eat, they don't like to be watched by others, so they all go home to get the stone pot and wait for the fish Soup!" The witch doctor Bai Huan kindly rescued the shamed and angry little Mao Tuanzi.

The female pheasants suppressed their smiles and dispersed. Some went hunting, some went home to see their cubs, and some went to collect grass seeds nearby. Soon, there were only two brothers left in front of Baixiong's shack. up.

"Okay, eat quickly, I'll take you to play something fun when you're full!" Bai Xiong urged with a smile, now he finally understands why those rich people in his previous life liked to keep pets, it's really cute !His Xiao Hei is like a cute walking creature now!

"Don't call me Xiao Hei!" Yunxiao tweeted twice, unable to bear the burning hunger in his stomach, finally got up slowly, walked to the boiled grass seeds with small steps, lowered his head, and took a bite I ate it quickly in one bite. After soaking and cooking, the grass seeds were moderately soft and hard. After rubbing off the outer layer of throat-grinding shell, the fruit inside was like sorghum kernels. Yunxiao was a little puzzled, because my elder brother didn't seem to have made it for me in my previous life. This, however, he doesn't have much memory of what happened when he first hatched in his previous life. Soon, the little black chicken threw himself into the embrace of delicious food.

It's a pity that the eldest brother is too stingy and only gave him a little food at a time.

Yun Xiao felt that he was not full, and there was not a single grass seed on the big leaf.

The little black hairball raised his head and looked at Baixiong expectantly.

"Hey, you are just born now, you can't eat too much at one time, or your stomach will not be able to bear it." Bai Xiong comforted.

When I was working in a kindergarten in my previous life, many parents complained that their children would gobble up as soon as they got home, as if they would never get enough to eat at school. In fact, they were teachers for the good of their children.Many older generations think that children are "blessed to be able to eat". They wish they could keep their mouths open all the time at home. In fact, this is very bad for children. First, it will easily lead to overnutrition and obesity. Come on, children tend to accumulate food if they eat too much. Therefore, in kindergartens, teachers generally do not let children eat too much at one time, and mainly eat less and more meals.

This is true for three- and five-year-old children, but Bai Xiong is naturally more cautious about the newborn Xiao Hei, and does not dare to feed him too much. He would rather be hungry for a while before eating a second meal, than let him accumulate food and hurt his stomach. There are no stomach and digestion tablets for children here.

Seeing that the little black chicken still looked gloomy, Bai Xiong paused, and decided to communicate with him in another way——

"Xiao Hei, it's not that the eldest brother doesn't give you food, it's just that there are only two of us in our family, and the eldest brother has to take care of you at home now, so he can't go out to collect grass seeds. These grass seeds were exchanged by me with others. , so we have to save some food, or the family will run out of food, can you understand?"

Bai Xiong doesn't intend to make Xiao Hei a person who doesn't know the world, so telling him about the difficulties of life and letting him learn to share the family's worries is what he must do.Many people think that children don't understand anything. In fact, this is a misunderstanding of adults. Children are actually far smarter than adults imagine.

really!

Hearing that the elder brother said that the food at home was not enough, Xiao Hei immediately stopped barking, lowered his head silently, and pecked at the leaves of the ash vegetable on the ground cherishingly, seeing him so well-behaved and sensible, Bai Xiong felt so cheap I suddenly realized that I started to feel distressed... Sure enough, it is not my own cub, so I can be ruthless to discipline him seriously, right?
