"Let's go."

Here, without a TV or a mobile phone, doing things is perhaps the best pastime.

Xiang Wen walked in front with a stone axe, and Miao Miao followed behind with a water bottle.

The grass at the entrance of the forest has been cut into it a lot, and walking inside, except for the bright hall or the bright hall.

"The grass on this mountain has to be cut when you have time, you see, it is much easier to walk up the mountain after mowing."

"yes, I'm going to plan how I'm going to use this island."

"Heroes see the same thing, and that's what I thought in the morning."

-

"I roughly calculated that to make a bathtub with a length, width and height of one meter, it would take about 100 pieces of bamboo, and I would need to cut four large and one small one."

"It's going to take four days except for the afternoon."

"Pretty much."

The next afternoon and the next four days, the two of them cut down four larger bamboos and one smaller bamboo. Then cut the bamboo into six sections according to the length of one meter, and then split it into four pieces.

On the last day, by the time they carried the pieces back to the cave, it was already dark.

"The materials are finally ready, and we can officially start work tomorrow. Where are you going to do it? ”

"On the second floor, I wondered if we could build a stove like the one in the countryside. Pin' zigzag, you look at the two mouthfuls below, one side is a bath, the other side of the iron can rack to boil water, the top one to move the stone mortar over, I think it is just right for the pot to cook things. ”

"Do you have to make stoves on all three sides?"

"It's enough to make two stoves, a stone mortar and a bath. You can usually boil water when you cook rice. ”

"Okay, let's try it."

-

The next morning, after feeding the wild boars and having breakfast, the two began this great work in the cave.

Xiang Wen stood under the stone mortar and moved the stones from the first layer to the second layer one by one. Then the stones on the second floor were cleared to the side, and then the dead grass was swept away to make a piece of land.

Then I made a rough sketch on the ground with stones.

Miao Miao hollowed out the middle of the mound on the flat ground of the first layer, like a doughnut, poured water in the middle, and then stepped on it with her feet like noodles, and added the cut dead grass in the middle one after another.

Xiang Wen also came down to help step on it together, four legs, swishing.

Seeing that it was almost over, Xiang Wen climbed up to the second layer and began to build stones, and Miao Miao put the mud next to the stone mortar one by one on the first layer.

A handful of mud and a stone, a handful of mud and a stone, Xiang Wen carefully built, knocking here and there, like a work of art. There weren't enough stones halfway through, so Miao Miao went out and moved some in.

It was close to noon, and the base was finally built. There are two stoves, the one facing the cave and the stone mortar facing the third floor. The right side of the bath can be embedded in the cliff wall, two meters away from the water seepage.

"You take a break, I'll go out and dig some dirt again, I guess it's not enough."

Xiang Wen looked at the rest of the mud.

"You can rest for a while, too. Aren't you tired? ”

"No, I'm not tired. I feel energized. ”

"Won't you eat lunch then?"

"I'm not hungry, I'll make a fire for you when you're hungry."

"Forget it, I'm not too hungry, so let's eat when I'm done."

Xiang Wen pulled four or five boxes of soil back and forth, and Miao Miao used rattan to tie the bamboo pieces into a 'ㄩ' shaped frame with five sides of 1 meter by one meter, and left a hole in the lower right corner of one of them.

Masonry baths.

The base under the bath is made of three rows of stones on each side, and the base should be stable because there are people sitting on it.

Xiang Wen found two longer stone strips to put on the base, leaving a hole of about 40 centimeters by 40 centimeters in the middle. He cut off a piece of the plane he had picked up and laid it on the hole, then smeared a layer of mud on the entire base. Then put the tied bamboo frame on it and spread a layer of mud. On the side embedded in the cliff wall, Miao Miao also specially stuffed a piece of aircraft debris to prevent a water leak from ruining the bath in the future.

Next, Xiang Wen smeared a layer of mud on the other four sides of the bamboo basket inside and out, and then pasted the bamboo pieces one by one, smooth side up, on the mud walls on all sides, as well as the bottom of the bath. The hole was still deliberately empty.

"It's ugly."

"Haha, it's okay. I think it's okay, after all, it's handmade. ”

"It's good if you don't dislike it, I'm hungry, can I eat?"

"Okay, you make a fire, I'll go out and pry some conch."

"Okay."

When the two of them ate and drank well, the sun went down.

"Let's continue tomorrow, you're tired too."

"Well, it's tiring."

This night, accompanied by the complex smell of earth, bamboo, withered grass, and the sea, the two of them were so tired that they fell asleep.
