Chapter 154: A Busy and Quiet Tribe



“Snap, snap, snap…”

Mu Tou squatted on the ground, holding a small stone in his hand, and hit the big stone in front of him diagonally again and again.

Small stone chips or powder separated from the big stone, and a shallow stone pit gradually appeared on it. The location of the stone pit was the place where Han Cheng had circled with tiles before.

Han Cheng was not idle either. He burned the bottom of the door axis with fire, then took a small piece of rough stone and squatted there to polish it.

The bottom of the door hinge is made smoother, but after it is placed in the hole being chiseled in the wood, the friction can be reduced, making it much easier to open and close.

The class on God's writing and language opened by the next witch successor Stone in the cave has ended for the day. The younger minors jumped out and gathered here, curiously watching the Son of God and others making things.

Some of them put their fingers into their mouths and bit them unconsciously while watching. When they noticed that the Son of God turned around and stared at them, they were stunned for a moment. After they reacted, they quickly took their hands out of their mouths and put them behind their backs.

In the shade not far from the cave entrance, several pregnant women were sitting there with their breastfeeding babies in their arms, watching everyone work leisurely and at peace.

They looked at the tall and solid wall, then at the salted fish and smoked meat hanging not far away, and smelled the aroma of food coming from the cave behind them. They felt calmer in their hearts, enveloped by a feeling that they could not describe in words.

They looked at the tribe, whose appearance had changed drastically but made them feel extremely at ease, and teased the children in their arms from time to time.

Some shameless ones would even pull the little bird of the child in their arms from time to time...

Most of the breastfeeding babies in their arms were not their own, but other people's.

As their bodies became increasingly heavy, there were many things they could no longer do, and the Qingque tribe was now relatively wealthy with plenty of food, so they no longer needed to scrape for food all day long as they did before, so the pregnant women in these months were enjoying themselves.

They don't need to do much, just take care of the children in the tribe, so that the female primitive people who have given birth and are light in body can do the work.

Years of keeping each other together and living together have made them free of selfish desires.

From time to time, a female primitive who was working elsewhere and was unable to hold back her milk would rush back, pick up her child and put her semen into the child's mouth.

After feeding her own child, she will feed other babies when she has enough milk...

The eldest brother, who had been building the stone wall for a while, sat on a stone, turned his head and looked at everything, a smile appeared on his face involuntarily.

The life he has now is something he never dared to imagine in his dreams.

He rested for a while, and then started moving stones to build the wall. This chief, who used to lead the tribe hunting all year round and worked hard for the continuation of the tribe, knew that if they wanted to make the tribe better, in addition to the blessings of the gods and the guidance of the Son of God, they also needed to work hard with their own hands.

The person in charge of cooking came out and said that the food was ready. After the eldest brother piled a stone in his hand onto the stone wall, he began to call everyone to eat.

The man standing on the west low wall pulling up stones put his hands to his mouth and shouted loudly in the direction of the northwest quarry, conveying the news of dinner.

When the people who were busy at the quarry heard the sounds of dinner time coming from the tribe, they all put down their work and quickly rushed towards the tribe.

After working hard for a long day, they were already hungry.

The tools were also taken back and not left at the quarry.

Although there was no tribe in the entire Qingque tribe that could be reached during the day and no one from other tribes would come to steal the tools, they still brought them back because it was the order of the Son of God.

Han Cheng has already polished the door axis, but the stone pit and the hole above the lintel require more effort and are only half completed.

Han Cheng has no habit of asking people to work overtime. As a foodie, he believes that one should eat when it is time to eat, and other matters should be discussed after eating.

So the lame guy who was working on the hole on the inside of the door lintel and was determined to get it through was called away by Han Cheng. This guy had been busy for half the morning and was already sweating all over, with black dust all over his hands and face.

Is it possible to replenish energy by not eating and resting for a period of time?

This is the person Han Cheng trained to be a carpenter. It would be a pity if he were to be damaged by this small hole.

The pregnant woman holding her child took the time to place some ceramic basins for washing with clean water next to the ditch on the west side of the cave. People who came back from work and were preparing to eat would go there to wash their hands and faces without being told, and then go into the cave.

After everyone had washed, the water in the basin could no longer be clear.

Although the Qingque tribe is now wealthy, the rules for eating have not changed. Han Cheng is still the first to get the food, followed by Wu.

The weather was hot and Han Cheng didn't want to eat anything greasy, so he specifically asked his senior brother to give him more vegetables and less meat when serving him rice.

I have to explain. Otherwise, the eldest brother, who always wants the Son of God to eat more good food, will definitely give him a big bowl of meat...

After lunch, it is time to rest. After working hard for the whole morning, people have some leisure time. Some people lean against the wall in a daze, while others lie down in the place where they usually sleep and take a nap.

After finishing his meal, Bo was about to work on the hole on the door lintel, but Han Cheng stopped him and told him not to go and to rest with everyone else.

The lame man who had been beating his chest and saying he wasn’t tired leaned against the mountain wall and fell asleep soon after…

When it was more than halfway through the afternoon, Bo finally fixed the hole on the door lintel. He pointed at the hole with a gloomy face and grinned at Han Cheng.

Han Cheng cursed with a smile, then asked Mu Tou to bring the chiseled stone over and place it inside the threshold for measurement.

After marking the approximate location, use a wooden chisel and a bone shovel to dig a hole here. After the hole is dug, move the stone over and put it inside and compact it with soil.

The stone as a whole is about one centimeter higher than the ground. This is to prevent debris from falling into the stone pit in the future and affecting the opening and closing of the door.

The holes in the stone correspond to the holes in the lintel.

With an excited look on his face, Lame moved the door over by himself without the help of the wood.

Under Han Cheng's guidance, he first inserted the upper part of the door hinge into the hole on the inner side of the door lintel, and then lifted the door upwards with force. Because the hole had been cleared by Lame, the upper door hinge could be completely inserted.

In this way, there will be a gap below, and the axis that was originally blocked from being placed in the stone pier pit below can be put in.

The holes on the lintel above and the holes on the stone pier below are both fixed, so the wooden door will not move around anymore. Han Cheng tried pushing and pulling it a few times and felt it was okay, but not smooth enough.

After Han Cheng let go, Bo also started pushing and pulling, looking up and down as he did so, with an even more joyful look on his face, because he had learned something new.

Lame kept opening and closing the door like a child who had obtained a new toy, wanting to express his joy to the Son of God, but found that the Son of God was not as happy as he had expected.

Before Lame could say anything, the Son of God turned around, walked out of the room and headed towards the cave.

He opened and closed the door, then looked at the Son of God who left in a hurry, and scratched his hair in confusion. The wooden door was installed well enough, so why did the Son of God look like he was not particularly happy?
