Chapter 148: Building a House
With the departure of Liu San and the medicinal herb buyers led by him, the gastroprosy turmoil has come to an end, but Li Xiaobao faintly feels that things are not so simple to think about, and there may be a bigger storm hidden behind the calm.
"Xiaobao, what are you doing here?"
After breakfast early in the morning, Zhou Cuihua saw Li Xiaobao holding a sickle in one hand and an ax in the other.
"Sister-in-law, isn't it just harvesting vegetables on two hills? Yesterday Zhang Ling told me to build a house on the mountain, if no one is watching, it is estimated that a lot of vegetables will be lost!"
As soon as Li Xiaobao said this, Zhou Cuihua understood, took off her apron and said, "Okay, my sister-in-law will go up and do it with you in a while!"
"No need, sister-in-law, I'll do it alone, Zhang Ling will go up in a while, you can rest at home for a few days!"
Li Xiaobao knew that Zhou Cuihua and Luo Guiying were tired of collecting Tianma recently, so he didn't think of asking them to help at all.
"What's the matter?"
Zhou Cuihua wanted to say something, but was stopped by Li Xiaobao and said: "I really don't need it, sister-in-law, or you can cook for us at home, if we don't come back at noon, you will send us food!"
"That's fine, you have to be careful!"
Zhou Cuihua knew that if Li Xiaobao wanted to build a house, he would have to go to the edge of Morning Glory Mountain to cut down trees, which was still very dangerous.
"Don't worry, sister-in-law!"
Li Xiaobao smiled, went out of the house and went directly up the mountain, looking at the green patches on the two hills, the vegetables were about to be picked, and a burst of excitement went directly to the edge of Morning Glory Mountain.
He had to cut enough wood to build the grass huts on the two hills.
After a while, several big trees had been put down by Li Xiaobao, and after cleaning up the branches, a cloud of five-element golden qi flashed in Li Xiaobao's hand and slowly gathered on the axe in his hand.
"Click, click!"
Wielding the axe in his hand, Li Xiaobao chopped several big trees into several knots like chopping vegetables, and then put them all into the five elements space in his body.
Originally, Li Xiaobao felt that since the Five Elements Space in his body could grow gastrodia and had aura, it shouldn't be a problem to put something. Sure enough, a few big trees were put into the Five Elements Space in his body, and he didn't feel it at all.
However, what made Li Xiaobao depressed was that no matter how he cultivated recently, the volume of the five elements space in his body could not be expanded.
"Boom, boom!"
After arriving at the No. 1 mountain, Li Xiaobao took out a few sections of the tree in one go.
After sharpening the heads of a few big trees, Li Xiaobao picked up the trunk with a faint layer of five-element gold qi with both hands, and thrust it into the ground hard.
"Poof!"
With a bang, the trunk of the tree four or five meters high had sunk into the ground by one meter.
In a short time, the main frame of a hut was erected.
"Xiaobao!"
"Brother Xiaobao!"
Just when Li Xiaobao wanted to get some more branches to cover the top of the hut, Zhang Ling's voice came.
Zhang Ling was followed by a young man who looked to be about twenty years old, the young man was about 1.8 meters tall, with dark skin, but a pair of tiger eyes.
"It's Xiaohu, when did you come back?"
The person who came was Li Hu, his father Li Desheng and Li Xiaobao's father Li Detian's uncle and brother, the two of them are naturally brothers, but Li Hu is a few years younger than Li Xiaobao.
"I came back yesterday afternoon, and I didn't look for you because I drank too much!"
Li Hu said.
"Oh, don't be idle, take an axe and get me some twigs, and cover them on top of the house! I'll just come and seal them up in the afternoon!"
Li Xiaobao is not polite, anyway, Li Desheng told himself about this a few days ago, Li Hu is about to recover from being a soldier, and he wants Li Xiaobao to take care of him, and when he sees him, Li Xiaobao knows that Li Hu is here to do something for himself, let him do something first.
"Brother, did you do it alone?"
Li Hu took the axe in Li Xiaobao's hand and said in surprise.
In fact, after Li Hu returned from demobilization yesterday afternoon, Li Desheng told him about Li Xiaobao. Li Hu still admires Li Xiaobao's ability very much, so he came to the mountain to find Li Xiaobao at night.
However, when he came, he happened to see Li Xiaobao and Zhang Ling holding hands and going home, so he was embarrassed to go up and disturb, and later he drank too much when he went home.
But when he came yesterday afternoon, he remembered that there was this cabin at all.
"Ahh
Li Xiaobao's words made Li Hu almost kneel, he was also a soldier, and he was very confident in his strength, but after seeing Li Xiaobao inserting a few sections of four or five meters high stumps into the ground, he secretly calculated.
After thinking about it for a long time, he finally came to a conclusion, that is, he couldn't do it.
It is absolutely impossible for him to be like Li Xiaobao in the morning.
"Okay, don't look at it, you're done, go to Hill No. 2, I'll go over there and get another room!"
There are two mountains in total, and you must get two houses, otherwise you really can't see it.
"Okay, brother!"
Li Hu looked at Li Xiaobao and Zhang Ling and nodded, and took an axe to chop the branches.
"Hey, when I came, I ran into Uncle Desheng, he said that he was going to look for you at night, so that you can help Xiaohu well!
Zhang Ling took Li Xiaobao's hand and looked like a bird, and the two of them walked towards the No. 2 mountain.
"What does he mean?"
Li Xiaobao was a little puzzled.
"You idiot!"
Zhang Ling looked at Li Xiaobao coquettishly and said, "Aren't the vegetables on your two mountains about to ripen?"
"That's right!"
"Do you need someone to help you pick it when it's ripe? Do you need someone to watch it? Do you need someone to water and fertilize it?"
Zhang Ling looked at Li Xiaobao very proudly and asked.
"Huh?"
Listening to Zhang Ling's words, Li Xiaobao understood that the people in the village had nothing to do after collecting gastrodia, and they all began to stare at their two mountains.
Anyway, just like Zhang Ling said, he has to invite someone himself, or he will leave Li Hu behind.
After a while, the two of them came to the second mountain.
"Turn around!"
Li Xiaobao grabbed Zhang Ling's shoulders with both hands and turned her back, and in an instant, he had already removed all the wood in the five elements space in his body.
"Boom, boom!"
When the sound came, Zhang Ling couldn't help but be curious, and when she looked back, she was stunned that several large logs had fallen out of thin air in front of her.
"This ......"
"What is this? You can sit aside and rest for a while, and watch me do it!"
Li Xiaobao pulled the surprised Zhang Ling to the shade next to him, and in Zhang Ling's even more surprised eyes, the main frame of the cabin was built in a few clicks, and it was basically completed with a few nails.
