Chapter 58

It should be..." Yan Mo is also not sure, if the house we build is not high and the ground for building the house is relatively hard, we just need to bury the large stones on the first floor in the soil, and bury them all in a circle according to the type of house. The soil is compacted, and about . . .

This paragraph was skipped happily, and Meng quickly raised the second question: how do the stones stick to each other? "

Need a binder, mix it together with lime, sand, grass ash, or volcanic ash and water, let me think what else, like clay? "Yan Mo smiled bitterly after saying this, sorry, this is a big problem, how to get the adhesive? Do you know if there is something so sticky that it can bond two stones together, and Can you survive the storm?"

Meng and Yuan Zhan thought for a long time and shook their heads together.

Yan Mo felt a little frustrated, but he also felt unsurprisingly. As expected, building a house is not that easy. Let's try building a house with wood. Anyway, it can be fixed with a tenon-and-mortise structure. "

So Yan Mo explained what the tenon-and-mortise structure is.

After listening to the original war, I shave my face, maybe I can try to make the bump structure you mentioned on the stone. "Although it will be difficult for him, who is only level two, he is now looking forward to what the house on the pattern will look like when it actually appears.

Great! "Yan Mo looks at Yuan Zhan a little bit more pleasing to the eye - that's the kind of subjective initiative!

But...how do I get the stone on this roof so it doesn't slip off? "

Uh, we can build a flat roof first, no, no, or a triangular one. I'm afraid the roof will collapse due to heavy snow. "Yan Mo thought hard about some knowledge about architecture that he had read in the past. Here we need a large beam, and many auxiliary beams, thick and straight wood, and use them to support the stone wall in parallel, and then..."

The explanation went on step by step. Yan Mo, who only knew little about building a house, explained that later, he always felt that this house must not have been built before the snow fell.

However, he did not expect Yuan Zhan and Meng to have such great enthusiasm in building houses.

Jiufeng circled around them for several days, completely unaware of what they were doing.

Those stones can't be eaten, why are they holding those stones and knocking and beating them every day?

Yan Mo, who couldn't help with the stone work, was driven to tan the shòu hides, which were the hides of animals brought back by Jiufeng from hunting in the past few days.

Yan Mo sat by the stream and scraped the remaining flesh, fat, etc. on the shòu's skin with a stone. From time to time, his hands were soaked in the icy stream water. The double miserable feeling of the little match girl!

Jiufeng slowly walked to Yan Mo's side and stared at him seriously.

Yan Mo turned his head and looked up at the big bird, what? Flowers on my face? "

Gollum. "Aren't you cold? Why are you still playing in the water on such a cold day?

Yan Mo, ahhhh! "

Grumpy Grumpy! "What is this? Do it again!

Ah sneeze! Ah sneeze! Ah sneeze! "Three sneezes in a row, and Yan Mo proudly announced that he had a cold.

Ten days!

The loss of the three of them in these ten days has been enormous, especially Yuan Zhan, who is in a strange excitement and extreme fatigue.

He knew that it was not good to consume it this way, but there was no temporary dòngxué nearby, and the rough shòu leather that was barely tanned had not even been tanned. The tent made of such a thing could be imagined how cold it was at night.

house! house!

He must build the house this winter!

Yuan Zhan found that it was not difficult for him to make a stone flat at first, and it was not difficult to carve a regular groove, but when he wanted to carve out a protruding rib for another stone that completely fit into the groove , it started to get difficult.

What's especially difficult is that he needs to get all the grooves and ridges all the same.

In order to see the effect as soon as possible, he decided to tidy the stones while covering them, but fortunately to do it later, he gradually became proficient and his speed became much faster.

The foundation pit was dug hard. After he dug it, he took Yan Mo to the woods to find a suitable beam.

Yan Mo said that the wet trees that were just cut down still need some pào preparation before they turn into beams, but this time there is no time. I don't know how to make the beams, but I only know that they need to be dewormed, roasted, and dried.

Jiufeng had been watching the fun, but when it found out that Yuan Zhan had made all the stones about the same size, it became interested for some reason. The wind blade cuts the same thing.

Puff puff! "After more than a dozen attempts, Jiufeng mastered the trick, and soon used the wind blade to cut out a long square stone about the size of Yuan Zhan's.

For this it exclaimed excitedly, Jie—! &

rdquo; While flying, summon the little two-legged monster to see its results.

Yan Mo appeared, and it immediately brought people to the stone, purring ostentatiously.

Yan Mo stood on tiptoe and touched the bird's head that was automatically hanging down, while turning his head to follow Yuan Zhandao, who was struggling with the stone: If I were you, I would get a bunch of stones and let it play enough. "

Yuan Zhan smiled yīnyīn and accepted this suggestion humbly.

Since then, Jiufeng has one more trick to play, and Yuan Zhan has one more coolie.

The biggest winner, Yan Mo, watched more and more stones and lit a fire for everyone.

Yuan Zhan opened his mouth and waited for the slave Yan Mo to feed him meat, and stared at him with fierce eyes - haven't you fed me like this before? Why did it work before and not now?

Seeing the other party's hard work, Yan Mo stuffed him with half-cooked meat.

He rushed over to express his desire, and was photographed back by Yuan Zhan Yi Shizhuan. Cry loudly!

Jie--! "What is that?! Why are you playing with fire on my site again!

A pile of fire angered Jiufeng, who was doing coolies happily.

Jie Jie! "I'm not allowed to ignite any fire! Barbecue can't be eaten! Extinguished! Immediately extinguished! Pfft!"

Yan Mo, who was about to open his mouth to bite the meat, was scalded by the sparks that jumped out, and roared furiously: Brother Bird, the sky is dry, be careful of the fire! "

When the first snow fell, there were four more stone walls in the open space in the leeward area of ​​Shishan. The stone walls had been built very high. The left and right walls were formed into triangles at the top, so that the beams could be directly erected. go up.

A thick and straight log was leaned against the stone wall. The wood was not fully penetrated, and only the branches and leaves were removed and the bark was peeled off, but they couldn't wait. Yuan Zhan and Meng climbed up the wall, and the two worked together The log was where it was supposed to be.

Chapter 42 Healing the original battle...but caused a miracle to happen?

In order to seize the time, this stone house was not built very large. The whole is nearly vertical rectangle, about five meters long and four meters wide, and the indoor area is only about 20 square meters.

The door and the only window are all square in shape. Yuan Zhan and Meng felt they didn't need the windows, but Yan Moxing asked that a window should be reserved, so they reluctantly kept it. out.

The roof is the most difficult to fix. Although the beams are up, how can I fix it so that it doesn't collapse, leak or slide down? Yan Mo has nothing to do with it. He has only seen that kind of triangular roof with tiles and straw. , Because one person couldn't think of a clue, he drew several roof reference pictures for the other two to figure out together.

Yuan Zhan stared at the main beam above his head for a long time, and an idea gradually took shape in his mind. If we make the triangular parts of the two walls on the left and right sides into steps like you said, and then put a piece of wood on each step. , and then make the stones into relatively thin long slabs and place them on the wood, with the upper layer covering the lower layer, and layer upon layer, can you achieve the tight seam you said? "

Yan Mo thought about it for a while, and drew it again. He felt that it was feasible, and whether it could be built or not, he dismantled it and rebuilt it, and immediately rushed to the woods to find suitable trees.

He went into the woods so actively, of course, not to chop down trees, because he found that he would be charged scum value for chopping down trees, but not pulling a weed.

For this reason, he made a special test. He deliberately pulled out a Suaeda salsa that had matured but the seeds had not fallen off naturally, and had not been added to the scum point.

But when he pulled out more than 100 sticks in a row, he was increased a little bit of scum. The reason is the intentional light destruction of natural vegetation.

Then he chose the natural Suaeda wilt, which had fruited and the seeds had naturally fallen off, and pulled out more than 100 roots in a row. The guide did not respond this time.

Then he took ordinary weeds to test, and the result was the same.

From this, it can be inferred that the guide implanted in him seems not only to be people-oriented, but also to pay attention to the overall environment and various ecological balances of the planet. In short, he is an environmentalist.

Yan Mo had a headache. When he first discovered that his life was going ahead, the new discovery told him that he should not only be a good humanitarian, but also be forced to become an environmentalist.

Fortunately, since he came here, apart from blood-sucking insects, he has never killed an animal with his own hands. He now seriously doubts that if he dares to kill any animal with his own hands, he may be charged a lot of scum. Or will the guide make decisions based on his survival needs, is he killing for survival, or for profit or something?

This cannot be verified for the time being and can only be put aside.

After all, he went into the woods in search of herbs and other useful plants, because he found the woods to be more valuable to him than he had imagined.

Because of his learning to identify medicinal herbs, he also memorized the shape characteristics of many large trees that can be directly used as medicine, such as cypress.

This forest is basically composed of large trees such as cypress and thorn hazel.

The cypress tree is full of treasures, resin, fruit, branches and leaves can be used as medicine, the tree itself has always been one of the best tree species for making beams and furniture. When he saw the cypress trees, he knew that their beam problem had been solved. Many of the cypress trees here were over 20 meters tall.
