I stepped forward and pushed it with my hands. These stacked stones were extremely strong, and it was difficult for me to push them with my strength.

There are old and faintly mottled stone statues outside. Both of them are holding up weapons and standing in a guarding posture, but there is a cave behind them. It is hard not to make people have other associations.

There are two reasons for building stone statues here and digging out caves. One is that the builder was a dignified person who inherited his own style of work and built two stone statues with the same proportions. The stone statues are almost 1.9 meters high and solemn , to declare his status and identity, and this cave is probably the old residence of the owner, because he did not want future generations to live in it, so it was blocked.

The second reason is more ridiculous, but most of the ancients believed in gods, and they were more superstitious because of it. The same approach works equally well, so I think another use of this stone statue is exactly this usage. It is used to sit on the door god, guard the residence, and be used by Megatron and evil spirits.

But no matter what, the blocked cave is very likely to be the place where the old predecessors of the Western Zhou Dynasty lived. Although I am curious, it is difficult to shake these stone piles with my own strength, so I can only speculate for fun Son, nothing else can be done.

Although I couldn't see it with my eyes, I still put my ears on the stone pile at the entrance of the cave and listened to the movement inside. There was a sound of dripping water, and there was even some wind. It seemed that there was a great possibility of underground water in the cave. I continued to listen. After being quiet for a while, just as I was about to give up and leave, I suddenly heard a strange noise!

I sat slumped on the ground, looking at the rocky hole in front of me in disbelief.

At present, it is guessed that this cave has only such an entrance, and it is blocked by chaotic rocks. It is hard to say whether there are living creatures living in it, but I clearly heard the footsteps of people just now, how strange is it?

I hurriedly avoided it, thinking that just now I was laughing at the superstition of the ancients, and now I am also scared out of my soul by this mysterious and unexplainable phenomenon, it is really ridiculous.

"I heard it wrong, I must have heard it wrong! It must be bats and lizards hiding inside, and it is definitely not the sound of human footsteps. This is absolutely impossible." I said, patting my chest.

But I still thought about it, if there were people inhabiting it, I would never have seen it, and the air and food in it were not enough at all, and no one could live there.

And if it's not a person, is it possible?

Forget it, forget it, Confucius said: "Respect ghosts and gods and keep them at a distance", I should listen to the sages and don't provoke these things.

Thinking about it, I hurriedly exited this place, and when I passed the two guard stone statues, I made a special obeisance, hoping that even if there was something dirty, I would calm down.

Then I went back to the top of the mountain, and now I can only rely on the metal cups brought back from the plane for cooking, which is not enough at all, and the girl Yingchun refuses to do things, and her work can only be contracted by Yunwen.

Fortunately, Yunwen has already memorized the steps of Yingchun. Although the baked earthen pots are not as exquisite as Yingchun's, they can still be used. At least they can be used for soup and stew.

I hand-picked the current supplies, three bronze vessels, 26 fungus that can be used as food, and the rest of the fungus is still growing, wild grass, wild roots, wild raspberries and a small snake skin bag, and 12 pieces of dried beef. The blades and tools are all in good condition. The engineer shovel, saw, hemp rope, bayonet, and one more delivery tool, wooden cattle and horses, and finally my gun. Although it is a sharp weapon, there are only five bullets left.

Of course, we also harvested three animal skins at the same time. When the night comes, one can be used as a tent, the other can be used as a bed on the ground, and the other can be used as a quilt, which is much warmer.

And that's it, we survived for three or four days relying on these supplies, during which Yingchun came to eat and drink occasionally, but when my temper came up, I just refused to move more, I knew she was angry with me, and felt that I was too indifferent to Bai Lu's affairs, and treated her slowly, but I have my own style, and I don't owe her anything in this matter.

When everyone was hungry, they ate the leftover supplies, and when they were thirsty, they went to the nearby spring pool to find water to drink, and their lives were also worry-free for the time being, but occasionally we saw vultures circling in the sky, which made us feel uneasy and scared , but most of them are seen during the day. If you see them, you can hide among the bushes and hide away, and you will be fine.

Regarding the cave below, I have never mentioned it to them, but if the cave is not so evil, I really plan to try to find a way to open the pile of rocks and use it for development, use and living in the cave.

During these three or four days, we also slowly got used to the days without Song Bailu, and indeed we would worry about it, but it was slowly replaced by other daily necessities, and I was completely given up. Even if I haven't seen her body now, I understand that she will never come back.

On the fourth day of living on the top of the mountain, we all got up early, tidied up, and after eating the same breakfast, we ordered to do the task and said, "Yunwen, hide all the food in the tent today, so as to avoid Attract birds of prey such as vultures or sea eagles, and then help to collect some firewood, and find out if there are any weeds and fruits nearby for supplies. I need to go threshing in a while. After you get it done here, come down and help me organize it together. Grain, put it in the barn."

"Okay, no problem." Yunwen said.

"Song Yingchun, today I can allow you to be lazy for one more day, as a recognition of your deep affection for your sister, but there is no free lunch in the world, if you continue to behave like this tomorrow, then I'm sorry, there is nothing to be done without rules. , I can only ask you to leave. Since you are staying at home for a long time now, please help look after the food, and also pay attention to protecting yourself, if there is a raptor coming, immediately hide in the grass." I warned.

After we finished speaking, Yunwen and I packed up and prepared to go to work separately. I didn't expect Song Yingchun to do anything, but I never thought that she, who was going to be dumb these days, spoke: "Brother Zhou Bo, call me!" Grain needs tools, and you have to have a warehouse to enter the warehouse. You haven’t prepared these, where are you going to put the threshed wheat later?”

"That's right, you need a flail for threshing, you need a rake for scouring wheat, and you need something for the barn," I said.

"Let me do it, I'll go down with you." Song Yingchun's voice was a little low, not as high-pitched as before.

I was a little surprised, but thinking that she really needs her manual work to get it done, I nodded and let her follow me down.

Seeing the relief on Yunwen's face, I also let go of my long-standing knots. With a saw and a shovel in my backpack, I took Yingchun down the stone steps and went to the wheat field, looking at the dried wheat all over the ground.

Then Yingchun looked around for dry branches, found some long ones and short ones, first sawed the slightly shorter branches to the same length, about an arm's length, then cut out some wooden nails with a bayonet, and then broke some branches, horizontally Clamp the six shorter branches back and forth and fix them with wooden nails to fix the upper and lower places.

I went to cut some thinner tree vines, and then reinforced and tied the cross-cut fixed place again, so that the six branches with the same length and length were tightly connected to form a board, and after sawing the long branches, then A long and large wooden nail was made, and the long branch was connected with the board, and the tail was widened.

Then a movable shaft is formed, thus a flail is formed, and the rod part is shaken, and the force affects the movable shaft to shake the board surface, and the wheat can be threshed quickly by beating the wheat in this way.

"The flail is done, and the next step is the barn. It is more difficult to find raw materials now. We need to go to the bottom of the mountain to get those wooden boards that are not used by the barren house." Song Yingchun said.

This proposal made me look at her with admiration. When she got serious, it was really a bit off-putting.
