Wangshan ran a dead horse, it was still noon when he saw the building, and when he finally approached, the sun was about to set, and then Yang Yu found that this was a building under construction not far from the mountain, with a grand scale, and some tents were set up around, thinking that it was a residence. The Turkic soldiers who were escorted by the pen "Fun" www.biquge.info Pavilion finally completed the task, and drove Yang Yu to handle the handover procedures for these captives in general, and the Turkic soldiers in charge of the place took the prisoners, and drove them forward like sheep, Yang Yu looked around, only to see stones and timbers piled everywhere, and there was a huge pit in the middle of the construction site, Yang Yu's mind flashed: "Mausoleum!" "The heart is wide, this way, Yang Yu is most worried that they are about to be distributed to the meritorious in battle or sold, then he and a few brothers will never see each other again, and this brother is almost his only concern in this world, if the Turks arrest them to repair the project, then at least, they are still together, together, there will always be a way.

Immediately, Yang Yu and the others were finally removed from the rope that tied them, because there was no need to worry about the captives escaping here, this place was desolate, far away from the Turkic tribes, and it was nearly a thousand miles away from the Han land, and it was impossible for people to survive on the grassland after escaping. Before they could think about it again, they were driven into several large tents, and then someone carried a large bucket and gave them food, in addition to two cakes per person, each person was even given a bowl of hot soup, which really flattered these captives, Yang Yu held a rough wooden bowl, looking at the soup that was still steaming, although there was only a little shredded meat in the soup, but the oil flower was very large, and the smell of mutton at this time was simply the supreme delicacy in the world, not to mention that there were a few vegetable leaves, Yang Yu was almost excited to cry, this has been so many days, The only hot meal he ate, looking at Hong Jun again, took a small sip of soup and moaned comfortably, in fact, not only them, but all the captives breathed a sigh of relief at this time. Tonight, at least I won't endure the biting cold wind in the wilderness, and I don't know if I will be able to wake up the next day if I sleep. That night, everyone had the best sleep since they were captives.

The next morning, they were called up, and came outside the tent again, Yang Yu took a deep breath of cold air, his spirit was slightly better, and he peeked at it, they were not only facing the Turks, but also many Han Chinese, helping the Turks translate and deal with chores. After a little thought, it is clear that the Turks must have been very inconvenient to manage the Han captives due to the language barrier, and it is necessary to use some Han Chinese who can speak Turkic as interpreters, and these people must have been taken captive after living in the border for a long time, or they were arrested here for business. In fact, Yang Yu guessed half right, some of these people were forced to come by captivity, but there are also many of them, because they have come here for various reasons to make a living and settled here, and some even have official positions.

There was a leader who looked like a person shouted and reprimanded, asking the crowd to gather and stand up, Yang Yu's wave of prisoners of war was enough for thousands of people, and it took a while to stand up, and the leader shouted and asked: "Be mental, you will all work here in the future, you will have food to eat if you do well, and you will eat if you don't do well, but you will eat whips." Don't talk nonsense, don't run around, let you do anything, don't think about running away, go out to feed the wolves. In a word, those who want to live are obedient. There are carpenters who can work out. ”

Yang Yu listened to this silent welcome speech, while secretly looking, hoping to find Zhang Junhai and them, but they haven't found it yet, when he heard the last sentence, he immediately reacted, raised his hand and said: "I, I will!" Someone immediately pulled him out of the crowd, and then someone shouted that he would do it, and he was also pulled out. As soon as Yang Yu came out, he looked at Hong Jun vigorously, Hong Jun was thinking about my dignified young master of the Hong family, definitely not that, I didn't expect Yang Yu, a little liar, to be carpentry. I saw Yang Yu squeezing his eyebrows, and after looking at it for a long time, Young Master Hong suddenly understood something! Stone is heavier than wood! Nonsense!? It's not nonsense, it's definitely not a leisure vacation, it's a place to work, and it's definitely better to deal with wood than with stone! After Hong Jun understood, he hurriedly pulled Qiu Chengxiang and Wu Yong and raised their hands and shouted: "I will, we will all know!" ”

Unexpectedly, a tall and sturdy overseer came over, pulled Hong Jun's hand, looked at the palm, and then sneered: "Yo, you have fine skin and tender meat, you don't have a callus or a scar on your hands, and you can also carpenter, have you ever seen carpentry!?" As he spoke, he kicked Hong Jun to the ground, and at this time, some people also understood, and they were about to raise their hands to say yes, but they didn't dare to see this scene.

Yang Yu was also scared and sweated, but fortunately, he was the first to raise his hand and say yes when he saw the opportunity, so no one doubted it. After a while, after more than 20 people stood up, there was no one left, so Yang Yu and his group were taken aside alone, and then asked if there were any blacksmiths and painters, and there were even fewer people who came out, only a dozen blacksmiths, and there were only two painters, and they were also brought out alone, and these two professionalism were stronger, and no one dared to pretend. Then it was simple, the carpenter, blacksmith, and painter were taken away separately, and the rest was divided into two, with the majority going to quarrying and the other half going to chopping wood.

Carpenter Yang Yu officially debuted! Despite this, the profession of carpenter still made Hong Dapang's eyes glow green with envy, and Hong Dapang was unfortunately assigned to a group of stone quarrying, and he hated it in his heart: "Liar, what a liar, I can't forget to deceive people at any time!" He said he knew how to carpenter, and I even believed it! Why does he deceive people and believe it, and I occasionally deceive people like this, but people don't believe it? It must be that I'm too kind, well, it must be. Hong Jun thought as he glanced at Yang Yu and was taken away. Yang Yu also looked at it at this time, hoping to find the other three brothers in the crowd, but unfortunately there were too many people and too many people, and he couldn't see them from beginning to end.

At this time, the carpenters, not only did not have all kinds of advanced power tools in later generations, but also did not even use nails and glue, whether it was as small as a bench or as large as a pavilion, between the wooden blocks, completely connected and fixed by mortise and tenon joints. When Yang Yu read the book on this subject, he saw the exquisite craftsmanship and ingenious workmanship of the illustrations in the book, and as a modern person, he couldn't help but be amazed. The book also introduced the tools of carpentry in detail, and Yang Yu was very interested in reading it at the time, so he didn't know anything about woodworking tools, but he only knew about it. When Yang Yu read the book back then, he sighed, because there are dozens of tools for planers, each with its own use, but everything is what Yang Yu sees in the book, can he get by?

A few overseers led the twenty or so people to a pile of timber, and as soon as they turned the corner, they saw the timber processing area here, and saw all kinds of timber piled up, piles of shavings and sawdust on the ground, and a large tent in the distance, and many people were already busy. The leader shouted: "Old king, old king!" "Alas, here it is." Hearing the voice, he waited for a while, only to see a gray-haired old craftsman turn out from behind a pile of wood, Yang Yu almost exclaimed when he saw it: "Grandpa, where is the gourd baby?" "This old king's head looks too similar to the grandfather in the gourd baby, if it's a cosplay, you don't have to change your clothes. Yang Yu suddenly had a good impression.

The leader said: "Old Wangtou, I have sent you dozens of newcomers, you can look at the rows and rows." The old king nodded hurriedly and said, "Don't worry, don't worry, don't worry, the villain can save it." Then the handover was completed and they left. Lao Wang began to ask a group of people. The first one to ask was a young man, tall and thin, with thick eyebrows and big eyes, and if it weren't for the fleshless face on his face, he would be a handsome young man. The old king asked, "What's your name?" Is it a big carpenter or a joiner? The young man bowed before he could say anything, bowed his head lightly and said, "The kid's name is Xie Shilong, he is a carpenter, he has been working with the master for three years, and he is about to become an apprentice." ”

Yang Yu thought about the content of the book, and then remembered that the so-called big carpenter refers mainly to carpentry in construction, and joinery refers to carpentry who makes furniture. Lao Wang Tou smiled and nodded, and asked carefully where he learned and what he could do, Xie Shilong answered one by one, and stood aside after asking, Lao Wang Tou continued to ask the next person, Yang Yu was anxious to think about how to answer, and slowly moved back.

After a while, everyone in front of him finished asking, Yang Yu was the last to step forward, and the old Wang Tou asked, "What's your name?" Is it a big carpenter or a joiner? Yang Yu bowed and said, "The boy's name is Yang Yu, and he learned from his uncle in Liuguanyi. After a slight pause, he looked at the old king cautiously and said, "The boy has just started as an apprentice, and he can only untie wood. "The so-called solution of wood, in fact, is nothing more than the use of large saws, adzes and other tools, the original form of the tree roughly processed to the shape of the wood, the first item that all carpenters learn is to solve the wood, generally a year to learn, in this year the main contact is saw, at the same time will be in contact with other tools, understand their use, how to repair, etc., the second year to start learning to use other tools, do some basic processing, the third year, only to really learn, so a carpenter to three or four years to get out of the apprentice, even if out of the apprentice, There are also many people who choose to continue to work by the master's side for a period of time, because the apprentice at this time is just going to do it, and it is far from doing a good job and doing it well. Yang Yu said that he could only solve wood, and he was really not a carpenter.

The old king was stunned for a moment, and then smiled: "Okay, okay, it's okay, just learn it." Yang Yu's heart was wide, it seems that Grandpa Huluwa is indeed kind-hearted, and there is no difficulty for himself. Lao Wang led everyone around, and every time he arrived, he arranged a few people to the little foreman, and it seemed that they were assigned to the place where they worked according to their situation, and in the end, Yang Yu was brought to a pile of wood and called: "Big cow, big cow!" A sturdy young man in the crowd came and greeted the old king with a smile. Lao Wang Tou said: "Da Niu, this young man's name is Yang Yu, I will follow you in the future, he has just been apprenticed, what will you teach him." Da Niu agreed, Lao Wang asked a few more words about the progress of the work, and said to Yang Yu before leaving: "Young man, they are all hard-working people, Da Niu is kind-hearted, you will not suffer if you follow him, be careful yourself." When Yang Yu heard him say this, the old king must have understood that he was pretending to be a carpenter, and couldn't help but be even more grateful, and bowed with a forked hand: "Thank you, old man." ”

After the old king left, the big bull ordered the two of them to lift the big saw, stared at a pair of bull's eyes and asked Yang Yu: "Boy, the main job of our gang is to untie the wood, is this okay?" When Yang Yu was a child, he really watched others untie the wood, the wood was raised high, the two of them were holding a big saw, one was under the previous person, and the two of them cooperated to complete, it didn't seem to be difficult, so he replied vaguely: "Yes." ”

Without a cup of tea, Da Niu completely understood how Yang Yu, a newcomer, knew how to do it, and even said that he could untie wood, and the angry Da Niu scolded Yang Yu for being stupid. Yang Yu thought that it would definitely not be as easy as doing it, but he didn't expect that the ideal and reality were always so far away, either the saw was slanted and stuck, or the saw was crooked, and he couldn't keep up with the rhythm of the big bull at all, Yang Yu also doubted his IQ in the stupid scolding of the big bull, and scolded in his heart: Why did a stupid person like me also graduate from college and pass the fourth or sixth level of English? It's really useless to be a scholar!

Fortunately, although Da Niu is "stupid", he is really not bad, and he constantly instructs Yang Yu, in fact, the solution of wood is steady, the two cooperate well, and it is not difficult to do, Yang Yu studied hard, and soon, by noon, he mastered some action essentials, and the number of times he scolded the stupid man gradually decreased.

Finally when it was time to eat, with someone shouting, Da Niu commanded Yang Yu to stop the work in his hand, and beckoned the people around him to work together to eat. Yang Yu has not eaten enough since he was captured, he has been untied the wood all morning, he has long been hungry, and he received the food he has shared, and it is still the same as yesterday, a bowl of soup and two cakes, and everyone else finds a log to squat, and when he wants to gnaw on the cake, he finds that his arms are all sore, and he holds the cake in his hand, but he can't send it to his mouth. Yang Yu adjusted his posture, pressed his knees against his elbows, and lowered his head at the same time to eat the cake. Da Niu was beside Yang Yu, looking at Hehe and really smiling, and whispered, "Your arms are sore, right?" It's okay, I don't feel like it's going to work for three or five days. ”

Yang Ding smiled gratefully, thinking to himself, this big cow is not completely unintentional, if the big cow yells, he, the fake carpenter, will immediately go through it.

After eating without rest, and starting the afternoon work again, Da Niu asked Yang Yu: "Are you okay?" Yang Yu's arms were soft, and he gritted his teeth and said, "Okay!" As he spoke, he grabbed the two of them and lifted the saw. Da Niu smiled and stretched out his thumb: "Okay, it's not a bad seed!" ”

The big cow has a rude face, but it is really as the old king said, and he is kind-hearted. When untangling wood in the afternoon, it is impossible to let Yang Yu rest, there is a supervisor watching, the big cow will use more strength, try to make Yang Yu a little easier, Yang Yu still tried his best to cooperate with the big cow at the beginning, but later he really couldn't hold on, almost just holding on to the big saw, and he was in vain, all relying on the big cow to block, seeing the sunset going down, this day finally survived again.

In the evening, Yang Yu had a hard time eating again, went to last night's tent to get his own broken quilt, and placed it in the carpenter's tent. This broken quilt was allowed to be brought by each of the Turks before they were captured, not because the Turks were kind-hearted, but if there was no such quilt, I was afraid that all these captives would freeze to death on the first night.

The carpenter's tent has some boards on the larger wood, and it is used as a bed, but Yang Yu is also very content, at the end of the day, his arms feel that they are not his own, and the big cow is moving a place for Yang Yu beside him, Yang Yu is so tired that he doesn't want to move, and after expressing his gratitude to the big cow, he threw himself on the "bed", and there was only one sentence in his heart in a daze: live, escape! After that, he fell into a deep sleep.
