Chapter Ninety-Five: The Prototype
The harvest was not good, or rather, it was just as limited as when I planted it, but it was not the result of the sluggishness and successive accidents of the eggs, which I blamed on the erosion of the soil by the sea breeze caused by the long time I left the island half a year ago, and now I can only pray that through my careful watering, the pH of the soil will be neutralized by the autumn planting.
For this reason, on the 23rd of this month's "fasting day", I especially prayed to "Lao Tan" about this matter, hoping that he would be successful, although I am not worried about our food this year, and I can even say that the careful reserves of the past few years are enough for a few of us to eat this second half of the year without doing anything, but we don't have to think about everything in the long run, don't we?
This summer harvest, the biggest harvest is not only the food and rope, but also makes me more clear in my mind what everyone should do to make them happy to contribute some energy to this team.
After a lot of work and explanations, at least Yumaru has understood that there may be villains secretly watching us around us, waiting for an opportunity to kill her precious evil spirits and the kittens. Since then, I have rarely seen this child on the gentle slope and around the earthen house, and she consciously climbed to the top of the hill above the gentle slope every day, where I had last seen someone prostrate and observing me, playing with her "friends", and her evil spirit friends, who were more observant and watchful? Although most of them are sleeping during the day, it doesn't matter, as long as one of them is awake, I'm absolutely sure that Yumaru won't let a stranger come within a kilometer of here.
People often say that "the first to get the moon near the water", because this little cub's daily work is to play on the top of the cave, for convenience, she herself took the initiative to occupy the cave, although I tried to organize it many times, but, she still lived in, and to my surprise, nothing happened, everything was as usual, I was no longer so concerned about this matter, as long as she did not jump the gods, I didn't care about the rest.
As for Dandan, his job couldn't be simpler, that is, to go back and forth to the "paradise" once a day, retrieve a rabbit we bred for slaughter and tooth sacrifice, and at the same time, look for some turtle eggs and vegetables near the "unpopular beach" every day.
But the problem arises, how can Dandan, who is originally a three-day journey, go back and forth in one day?
This is entirely due to the kind of sturdy rope made by the Sichuan girl. In fact, the delay of the trip, is not the road itself, but the towering tree in the valley under the mountain but suffering from no road, every time you go to the "paradise" to turn around and around, and even every time the road cut out may be different, but, I knotted the rope of the Sichuan girl into a net, and polished a large pulley with a diameter of at least 20 centimeters with wooden roots, one end is tied to a boulder of more than 100 catties, and the other end is tied to the person's body, the pulley pry principle uses the gravity of the boulder, You can easily drag me or Dan Dan to the top of the mountain above the cave, yes, there is indeed a distance of thirty or forty meters between the top of the mountain and the gentle slope, but it is very dangerous, so I made a larger net of ropes, and made three barriers between the top of the mountain and the gentle slope, even if it really falls, it will never fall directly to the ground, indeed, I have tried, even if I want to fall to the ground, it is a somewhat difficult thing, don't forget, I am a very afraid of heights.
The difficulty is only how to climb down a few cliffs after getting there, but with these sturdy hemp ropes, are those cliffs more than ten meters high still cliffs? It's just a "bunker".
I walked at least five times with the eggs, and told him to try to kill the wild and aggressive male rabbits, and most importantly, not to slaughter them here, but to take them back to the gentle slope after falling unconscious, so as to avoid leaving blood stains and unnecessary trouble, as for the turtle eggs and vegetables, hehe, this grandson is more familiar than me, I guess, he must have come here with me on his back to steal food several times, but I didn't find it.
As for Sister Chuan, she is probably the busiest of us now, and I can even say that I am so glad that Dandan brought her back in the first place.
Due to the new task of fish balls, the work of frying rice every day naturally fell on the Sichuan girl, she just needed me to help her make a fire under the earthen stove, and I didn't have to worry about other things at all.
If the kind of fried rice I used to make myself was food, then the variety of fish balls that was later improved was cuisine, and now, the fried rice produced by Sichuan Meizi is simply a special Tiangong imperial meal! I don't know how she did it, she decided to add a lot of wild vegetables to the fried rice I don't know where it came from, although the green leafy vegetables are a little bitter, but the fragrance is unforgettable, yes, he just used a bunch of broken palm rope and a bunch of broken vegetable leaves to successfully integrate into us, and quickly became the core of us, after all, when to start the meal, it is her say, and whether it is delicious or not, is also what she says!
In addition, salt, cleaning and other chores, Sichuan girl is busy from morning to night, but, vision problems are always her biggest barrier, but also my guilt sore spot, for her safety, I used a newly made simple crossbow bow and eggs to make a transaction, the core of the transaction is: "from the earthen house to the gentle slope, the salt platform, the earthen kiln pot pit, the north and south tree walls to make a road that people can touch." The road is required to be smooth, and a half-person-high fence must be erected twice so that the Sichuan girl can walk by herself.
Yes, Dan Dan snatched the crossbow arrow and happily agreed, the crossbow arrow he regarded as a treasure, used and treasured it for many years, if he had known that he would care so much about this thing, maybe I would have made a stronger one, and more beautiful, the current one, it looks more like a tree branch turned into a stretched bow.
But, you know Dandan, this grandson has always turned his face and refused to admit it, right? When I urged him to start work, hehe, Ya actually told me that he didn't understand what that task was! Grandma's!
He still did it, according to my request, but there were some small deviations from my concept, the road is still the road, and the half-human high fence does protect the road in the middle, the difference is that the grandson of Dan Dan has been holding the crossbow arrow in one hand from beginning to end, and the other hand is responsible for helping me deliver some materials, "the whole road", all of which were built by Lao Tzu himself!
