No one thought that after the cave collapsed, they would find a piece of jade. Although they didn't know much about jade, when they saw such a large piece of jade, which looked like an official seal, they could all feel that this thing must be a treasure and must be worth a lot of money.

The cave collapsed and they lost a lot of production and daily necessities, and it was definitely inconvenient for them to connect to the next few days, but with this piece of jade, it was enough to make up for their losses. As the saying goes, gold has a price, but jade has no price. This piece of jade has obviously been artificially carved, and it seems to look like a word and a painting. Although they held it in their hands, they were right in front of them, but Shen Mo and Uncle Zhang just couldn't see what was on it?

Maybe it's too old, maybe it's been played with too badly, there are wear and tear, anyway, you can't see what is on it. However, they were not people who studied antiquities, but were only interested in this jade bump that suddenly appeared. This interest is amateur and does not rise to a professional level. If they can't figure out what it is, they don't play with it anymore. Knowing that it should be valuable, he put it away far beyond the collapsed cave.

The first thing to do was to quickly find a place to sleep at night, but fortunately they were familiar with the neighborhood and soon found a cave. The cave is big and empty, mainly because it is inconvenient to go up and down, there is no road, it is full of rugged and uneven stones, and the mountain stones are too hard, it is not easy to transform, otherwise it is not bad to live in it. It's not suitable for long-term living, but it's a good place to go over. There is a spring in the cave, and it is easy to get water.

By the time they had settled everything down, it was getting late.

The next day, as soon as dawn came, they began to build a new house. Because of the on-site excitement of the cave collapse, they decided to build five wooden houses. Each room for three people is used as a kitchen, and the other room is used as a storage room. Because of the limited manpower, the three-piece bedroom is relatively smaller, and the kitchen is also used for the dining room, so it is relatively large, and there are not many requirements for the storage room, depending on the situation. If it is not enough in the later stage, it is okay to rebuild, the key is the bedroom of the three of them.

There is a lot of wood in the mountain, and they have decided on it last night, so they will build it with pine logs. When I got up early in the morning and had eaten, Uncle Zhang started cutting wood with silence. It's easy to say, but it's hard to do, and it took two people to cut down twenty-one pieces of wood all day. All of them are pine trees about 20 centimeters long, and the pine trees are all over the mountain for them to pick, and they are tall and straight, about ten meters high. In this case, nailed horizontally, the length is almost enough for three bedrooms.

The only fly in the ointment is that twenty-one pieces of wood are probably only enough for one wall, and it takes five or six days to cut wood, including the roof and floor. If you add the kitchen and dining room, it will take half a month just to prepare the wood, and with other materials, it seems that building a house is not a simple matter. This reminded Shen Mo of an old saying in his hometown, marrying a daughter-in-law to build a house (building a new house), and he was afraid to mention it! It was just a day of sawing, and when he slept at night, Shen Mo felt that his arms were sore. As soon as the head hit the ground, it entered the dream. Uncle Zhang is old, tired from a long day's work, and his whole body is sore, but he can't fall asleep as happily as silent. Tossing and turning for a while, and then helped Niuniu cover the quilt before falling asleep in a daze.

A night's sleep is hard to get rid of fatigue. It doesn't matter if you're silent, except for a little sore hands and feet, your spirit is back to fullness. Uncle Zhang is old, although he has not complained, it will not be easy to think about it. Shen Mo suddenly remembered that the strap could relieve the soreness, so he found a piece of cloth and cut several strips of cloth. Then I tied it to my legs, and sure enough, I felt a lot more comfortable. So he asked Niuniu to tie strips of cloth on his arms.

After tying himself up, Shen Mo helped Uncle Zhang also tie a bandage. He walked around and said, "Yes, what a good way you have come along! It's so old, I only sawed a few pieces of wood yesterday, and I felt sore." If you don't come up with this method, I'm afraid our construction period will be extended by several days. ”

Although the bandages relieved the soreness, they walked noticeably less briskly than they did yesterday. Coming out of the cave, Shen Mo ran ahead, he knew that after these two days, his body would get used to it. I had just walked out not far when I suddenly heard "Ouch!" With a bang, Shen Mo looked back and saw that Uncle Zhang had fallen under a big rock. It turned out that he had just stepped on it properly and fell off it.

After he fell, he stood on the stone for a while, but before he got up, he fell to the ground again, and he couldn't help but hold his legs and take a breath of cool air.

Shen Mo hurriedly ran to him, and Niuniu also ran over from behind.

"Maybe it's a broken leg, you help me find two sticks, I'll tie it up first. Uncle Zhang said to Shen Mo. After working hard for a while, I saw beads of sweat oozing from his forehead, which showed how painful it was.

"Grandpa......" Niuniu saw her grandfather's appearance, and she was distressed and didn't know what to do.

"Niuniu is fine, grandpa is not in pain, grandpa will be fine after two days of rest. Uncle Zhang touched Niuniu's hair and pretended to be relaxed.

Carry Uncle Zhang back to the cave, settle down, let Niuniu take care of her grandfather, and silently go down the mountain to help her grandfather buy medicine.

Because my grandfather was injured, I had to find some medicine. Because Shen Mo didn't know the medicinal herbs, he could only go down the mountain to buy them.

Because his grandfather was injured, he only relied on silence to build a house, and I was afraid that the construction period would be extended indefinitely, so Shen Mo had to take all the animal skins and mountain treasures at home with him, and go down the mountain to exchange for enough daily necessities and make long-term preparations. In order to ensure that he got enough things in exchange, Shen Mo thought about it and brought the jade pimple with him, and then told Niuniu to say goodbye to his grandfather.

Hides and mountain treasures have regular customers in Lanmu City, and they have been friends with Uncle Zhang for many years. Shen Mo carried the burden directly to the leather store, he followed Uncle Zhang a few times, and the boss also knew him. As soon as he saw the silence, he went around the counter and asked enthusiastically, "Are you tired?" As he spoke, he took the burden and asked the man to bring the tea quickly.

"It's okay, it's okay," he said, silently taking the tea, and drank it in one go. Although it is autumn now, I have been carrying the burden for more than half a day, and my mouth is indeed dry.

"Do you want to rest for a day?" the boss took the teacup and handed it to the man, asking him to pour another glass, as he asked Shen Mo. Now that autumn is falling, the days are slowly getting shorter, and he is afraid that he will not have time to rush back to the mountains in silence. Uncle Zhang also rested in his shop before. It's all hard, and it's not particular, so I lay a floor in the store and deal with it for one night.

"I'm sorry boss, I'm going to buy more things this time and I'll go back early tomorrow morning. Shen Mo decided that he must buy everything in the afternoon, and then get up tomorrow and go back. There are many things, and you must take a break on the way.

He gave the hides and the treasures to the fur dealers, and took the silver. Then he asked where the jade was sold, and he left the leather store silently.
