Chapter 247 How Many Big Things Are You Doing
Ling Cang came over and said with a painful look on his face: "Nuannuan, my legs hurt."
Su Nuan's heart trembled. Could it be that he suffered secondary injuries while trying to stand up?
She immediately forgot her previous question and asked nervously, "How does it hurt? Come in and lie down. I'll check you out."
Ling Cang glanced at little Ling Yun and said, "Your shoes are broken."
Xiao Lingyun looked down at his intact shoes, looking confused.
Su Nuan just said she's gotten shorter. Is it because her shoes aren't high enough that she's unhappy with them? Okay, I'll find something to raise them up.
While little Lingyun was trying hard to increase his height, Su Nuan had already finished examining Ling Cang.
She breathed a sigh of relief and said, "It's okay. I haven't exercised enough. I'll be back to normal after more exercise."
It seems that the river water and medicinal herbs used during this period were not wasted, and he recovered faster than expected.
I just have a question. In his condition, he should have stood up and walked a few steps long ago. Why did he just start to stand up?
Ling Cang saw the doubt in Su Nuan's eyes and was afraid that she would worry, so he said, "Actually, I could stand up a long time ago, but I have been sitting in a wheelchair to find out the hidden dangers."
Su Nuan suddenly realized, "I see, it's not my treatment that's the problem. That's good."
Ling Cang continued to distract Su Nuan, "Although we have resisted the invasion, there are still many warlike tribes. We must build the city wall to ensure safety."
Su Nuan nodded, "Well, it's not just the barbarians. Summer and autumn are the seasons when wild beasts are active, so we have to be on guard against wild beasts as well."
Ling Cang nodded. In fact, according to the terrain, the chance of being attacked by wild beasts was not high.
The terrain shaped like the Chinese character "几" makes it very safe for them to live in the middle of the character. It can be said that the entire base is surrounded by rivers on three sides.
On the other side are roads and cliffs. As long as there is no danger from the river, the base is absolutely safe.
Of course, dangers from the sky are another matter.
Xue called out from outside, "It's time for dinner."
Su Nuan said, "Please sit down first. I'll get you some food."
Although the villagers were very hungry after killing enemies all night, they had poor appetites and ate a bite in a hurry before going back to clean up.
Su Nuan organized people to burn all the bodies, and the fire burned all night.
The enemy's ashes were scattered into the river and washed away, while the ashes of their own people were gathered and buried somewhere first, waiting to be moved to a better place later.
After ten days of renovation, the village resumed construction.
Su Nuan took out the practical bone tools, and Ling Cang formed a team of people to dig the cliffs.
The cliff is trapezoidal when viewed from the side, so it would take more than 3,000 meters to dig through it.
If you are digging from the other side of the cliff, you don't need to dig so far, because the other side of the cliff is steep at the top and a gentle slope at the bottom.
Su Nuan decided to dig from the bottom. After digging through, he could slowly expand it to make more rooms inside. In the future, even if there were enemies from the sky, they could hide in the cave.
There had been no bridge for the past ten days, and the woods on the other side of the river looked a little desolate.
Su Nuan originally planned to build a bridge after the wood ran out, but Ling Cang found Su Nuan who was checking by the river.
He said, "We're running out of lumber. Should we build a bridge?"
Su Nuan was a little hesitant. Those who left Beixue Country didn’t return. Wouldn’t they send someone out to check?
Seeing her hesitation, Ling Cang asked, "Is there something wrong? Just tell me, I'll see if there's a solution."
Su Nuan looked at Ling Cang, and she had to crane her neck because this guy was too tall.
"A boatload of people from the Northern Snow Country passed by, and I tricked them. Now both groups haven't returned, and I'm afraid they'll send someone to check again."
Ling Cang was a little surprised. Didn't the people on the previous boat return? How many great things had his wife done quietly?
Su Nuan touched her nose, feeling a little guilty, but she said without hiding anything: "When I went to the beach to look for Dong'er, I saw those people robbing the fishing village. I thought Dong'er also lived in the fishing village, what if she got hurt..."
She didn't know what Ling Cang was thinking, maybe he would talk about herself.
However, Ling Cang raised an eyebrow and asked, "Is it done cleanly?"
Su Nuan was startled, "Huh?"
Ling Cang smiled and said, "This is what we ask after we launch a sneak attack. If everyone on the other side is dead, we answer that they are all dead. If a few escape, we say that the sand was blown away. If the sneak attack fails, we say that the wind was too strong to see clearly."
Su Nuan chuckled. This statement was quite interesting. She said, "It's clean. There's not a single grain of sand."
Ling Cang also smiled, "Okay, if something like this happens again, you must tell me, and I will help you clean up the mess."
Su Nuan knew that Ling Cang must have his own power and was more capable than herself, so she was not just bragging.
"The second group came out to look for the lost ship. I tricked them into helping us lead the charge."
"The Tiger tribe wanted them to cross the river on rafts, but I shot them dead."
Ling Cang nodded. He believed everything Su Nuan said.
"Well, are you worried that people from the Northern Snow Country might come down and see our bridge?"
Su Nuan nodded, "Because the boat used to build the pontoon bridge was the one they lost."
Ling Cang was not surprised. In fact, he had guessed it a long time ago, but he still couldn't help laughing.
"Then let's not build it for now. We'll still build an arch bridge when we have the chance. But a bridge this long is no small undertaking."
Su Nuan knew that it was impossible to build a bridge in a short period of time. After all, after everyone had a place to live, it would be time to take care of the crops after they sprouted, and it would be difficult to weed the newly opened wasteland and farmland.
But without a bridge, there is no way to cut down trees. If there is a bridge, there is a worry that the people of the Northern Snow Country will see it and cause unnecessary conflicts.
The space spirit said, "Stupid, the boat is almost the same even if the shed is removed. You just need to use paint to change the color."
Su Nuan quickly asked in her mind, "Is there paint in the space? But it fades as soon as it's soaked in water."
The space spirit said disdainfully, "Do you think this is a low-quality product from your place? Forget it, let Hai Lan do this. He'll have the people change the color of the boat so that people can see it's made of new wood painted with tung oil, and they won't be suspicious."
Su Nuan quickly responded, "Okay, okay."
She couldn't talk to Hai Lan, but the space spirit could, so it was nice to use it as a microphone.
The bridge can be built, but it will have to be dismantled again if a ship passes by, which is still a hassle.
The space spirit said again: "Build a suspension bridge in the middle. Pull it up when there is a boat, and lower it when there is no boat."
Su Nuan sighed and responded, "Let's talk about it later. I'm not considering it now."
Seeing that Su Nuan had been silent, Ling Cang asked, "What's wrong? What are you thinking about?"
Su Nuan pointed at the river and said, "If we build a floating bridge, and people from the Northern Snow Country or downstream come by boat, we will have to dismantle the bridge. We need to find a convenient way."
Ling Cang nodded, "Yeah, I'll think about it."
As the two were talking, the howling of wolves was heard from the other side of the base, and Yunyue was sounding the alarm.
Ling Cang and Su Nuan looked at each other. A stranger had broken into the village!
