Chapter 13: Moving to a New Home
With the idea of moving, Zhong Shenxiu immediately took action.
Zhong Shenxiu first made a detailed survey of the surroundings of the place, and finally chose the site for the construction of the house in a wooded and high place.
The advantages of this choice are that the tree can be used to strengthen the house, and if it rains, it will not flood the house.
Once the site is chosen, the rest is relatively simple. Zhong Shenxiu is in charge of chopping wood, and Robin is in charge of consignment. For a while, the two were very busy.
The timber is almost ready, and the next step is how to build it. Since there was no such thing as nails in this world, and Zhong Shenxiu's mana had not been restored, he had to use some more earthy methods, that is, to tie the wood together with ropes.
But fortunately, Zhong Shenxiu didn't plan to build a gorgeous wooden house, he meant that he could live in people, and he could shelter from the wind and rain. So, building a house is not too complicated.
The internal strength is profound, and I don't feel tired at all when I do hard work, but I feel comfortable. After a period of busy work, the two finally built the skeleton of the house.
The next thing is to build the house, and this is simpler than building a skeleton, Zhong Shenxiu is to get some huge leaves to spread on it, and then paste soil on it, which is done.
The house built by Zhong Shenxiu can only be described as improvised. But no matter how shabby, it was much better than the broken stone cave, at least the cabin had doors and windows.
Looking at the homes built single-handedly, Zhong Shenxiu and Robin were both very happy, and fully felt the joy of self-reliance and abundant food and clothing.
The next thing was that the two of them drove the carriage back and forth to transport bottles and cans, although there was nothing valuable, but there were quite a lot of things, and the two of them went back and forth five or six times before they finally poured things upside down.
At this point, Zhong Shenxiu and Robin have settled in this new home.
The new environment can always give people a sense of novelty, in order to be more familiar with the environment of the home, Zhong Shenxiu decided to take a half-day vacation, and he will not take medicine today.
wandered all the way, and finally Zhong Shenxiu and Robin came to the river.
This small river is actually a small river, but it is not small, the surface of the river is about fifty or sixty meters wide! The clear water flows slowly, and there is a faint water vapor rising on the surface of the river, which is really a good place.
Robin stood beside Zhong Shenxiu and peeked at Zhong Shenxiu, who was staring intently at the river. She felt that she was so happy, and she really hoped that she would always be able to live like this in the future, living this kind of life in the mountains and countryside. However, Robin knew that her master was an idle person through these time and time, and he didn't know how long this life would last.
Zhong Shenxiu is now looking at the fish and shrimp playing in the river, and feels that it is too wasteful not to do something like this.
Although Zhong Shenxiu was worried about the fish and shrimp in the river, he was not interested in catching them today. So, he took Robin to other places.
When it's comfortable, time always flies. In the blink of an eye, it was already dark.
At this time, Robin had already prepared dinner and was waiting for Zhong Shenxiu, who had just gone out, to come back. There was not much time, but I saw Zhong Shenxiu dragging a large pile of rattan back.
Robin knew that this was something strange that the master was going to drum up again.
Sure enough, after eating, Zhong Shenxiu said to Robin, who was cleaning up the dishes: "Robin, wait a minute, I'll teach you how to weave fish baskets and shrimp baskets." ”
Under Zhong Shenxiu's patient and meticulous hand-to-hand teaching, Robin finally lived up to his expectations and completely mastered the technique.
"Master, can this thing really catch fish?" Robin was very distrustful of the fish basket, she really couldn't understand why the fish were so stupid, could it be that they wouldn't swim out if they swam in?
"You'll understand that when the time comes. Regarding Robin's question, Zhong Shenxiu did not give a clear answer this time. He felt that it would be difficult to explain it to her without letting her experience it herself.
People with kung fu do everything with double the efficiency, I saw Zhong Shenxiu and Robin's hands like spinning kites, quickly shuttling between rattans, and in a short period of time, they had already made several finished products.
After a night of silence, Zhong Shenxiu woke up Robin early the next morning, and the two of them carried the fish basket and shrimp basket they had made yesterday towards the river.
It is not necessary to go down the fish basket and shrimp basket in a place where the water is deep, it is better to be in a place where fish and shrimp are frequented. Zhong Shenxiu explained the essentials to Robin while sitting and demonstrating by himself.
Robin also seemed a little excited, she really wanted to see how these things caught fish and shrimp, so she learned it quite seriously.
Dozens of fish baskets and shrimp baskets were placed by Zhong Shenxiu and the others in several places where fish and shrimp often haunt, and the next thing was to wait for the fish and shrimp to take the bait themselves.
"Let's go!" Zhong Shenxiu shouted to Robin, who was still intently observing the fish basket.
"Master, do you leave them alone?" asked Robin, curiously, pointing to the fish and shrimp baskets that had been placed.
"Well, don't worry about them, we'll just come and get the fish then. ”
"Then why don't you take it now?"
"Stupid, how can fish and shrimp be hooked so quickly. Zhong Shenxiu said a little speechlessly, this is the first time he has said that Robin is stupid.
In fact, Robin is not stupid, but also extremely smart, but Zhong Shenxiu brings her knowledge that she has never heard of and never seen, so sometimes it is difficult to digest it for a while.
Robin let out an "oh" in disappointment and followed Zhong Shenxiu.
On the way back, I don't know what Zhong Shenxiu thought, so he casually asked: "Robin, do you know how to swim?"
"No! I've heard that anyone who can swim has to be loved by the god of water. Robin said with his head down.
Zhong Shenxiu once again felt how deep-rooted the feudal superstitions in this world were.
"Where did there be so many water gods in this world, swimming is very simple, according to your qualifications, I believe you will learn it, and after you go back, I will teach you 'turtle breath **', and you will have swimming immediately after learning it." Zhong Shenxiu paused and said, "Don't mention anything in the future, you have to remember that everything should not be pinned on fate, you have to rely on yourself to fight for it, you know?"
Robin remembered. ”
Friends, don't forget to vote for rats!╭(╯3╰)╮
