Chapter 63: Cloud Shadow in May 1996
Cloud Shadow in May 1996
My son sleeps very well, his face is red, his eyes are closed and his mouth is like a little angel in the mural, no wonder his grandparents like him so much.
Lying down beside my son, thinking about what to do tomorrow, I too fell asleep.
Early the next morning, Ah Fu and my sister had breakfast and went out to "work", and I arranged a generator at home.
Considering the noise when it works, I opened a door in the basement wall, used my ability to clear a small room with ventilation to the ground, and placed it inside.
I tried to start it once, and it was far enough away from where I was resting, and the noise was so small that it was basically negligible.
Perfect.
The two large barrels of diesel were kept separate and properly stored in the base of the wall, and I sealed them off with rocks to prevent them from burning down my house on fire.
After that, the wiring is laid out. I have already planned the specific operation and location. I have already marked the location of the buried line with chalk on the wall. After listening to the advice of the little boss to fine-tune the position of the socket switch at home, I started to work.
Under normal circumstances, if you want to wire the integrated stone wall, either stick the wire to the wall, or use a steel drill to dig. , the rock will automatically retreat from the groove as if it melts, and when I bury the wires in, let them bridge like jelly and wrap the wires inside.
The wall is a whole piece of pure slate. There is no seam, so there is no need to worry about water leakage. Some sockets are also equipped with a crystal box cover that only I can open. Beauty is one aspect, mainly to prevent my son from touching it.
The circuit in my house is simple, and the lamps and table lamps are installed smoothly. The only electrical appliance other than the lamps is an electric stove. Considering that my house does not even have a kitchen, I will install the electric oven not far from the fireplace for the time being. On the slate table, next to it is a place to hang various pots and utensils, which can just be used for cooking.
For most of the day, the circuits and lamps were arranged, the generator was turned on, and all the lamps in the house were bright with the roar. I wiped the sweat on my forehead with satisfaction.
My son is curious about bright light bulbs. He has seen battery lamps and flashlights, but he has never seen anything brighter.
It's really comfortable to have lights, especially in the bathroom. After making a crystal cover for the light bulb on the ceiling of the bathroom, you don't have to worry about it getting wet and short-circuiting. In the future, you don't need to use seven or eight candles in the shower at night. It's really "technology changes life".
The benefits of having electricity are truly countless.
If nothing else, from this winter onwards, maybe I don't need to go to the heated kang anymore. Plug the electric mattress into the socket, and the whole bed will be warm, and the effect will not be much worse than that of the heated kang.
The electric stove is also simple and convenient to cook. If you want to cook some porridge or the next noodle, the operation is much more convenient than the fireplace.
With electricity, I subconsciously look forward to buying more household appliances, and I also want a bigger house. Apart from the basement and bathroom, my house has only one room that integrates the living room, bedroom, and kitchen. Not enough, but I wish I could have more space to separate the functions.
I've always wanted a workshop of my own, whether it's making rock sculptures, gem crafts, or practicing 'medicine', it's a lot more convenient.
I also desperately want a greenhouse. In Luhe Village, everything withers in winter. Having a lush greenhouse not only allows me to eat fresh wild vegetables, but also makes winter more fun.
The restaurant is also something I really want. My family only has a small wooden table. After cooking on the fireplace, I sit at the table to eat. If there is a kitchen with a reasonable layout and a special dining place like the book, I should be able to. I feel more attentive to cooking.
There is also a bedroom. When I started to build this house, I didn't think about the "bedroom" at all. Some sleep in the village is already great. After all, I don't have a bedroom in my own home in the other world. Things, have been sleeping on the small bed made of wooden planks in the seating area.
It's different now. In the planning of the new house in another world, my parents and myself will have spacious and beautiful bedrooms with balconies, and the positions are specially staggered so that they do not interfere with each other. Looking at my own world, I still sleep on a slate kang, and the whole room has no "design sense" at all. There is still a lot of room for improvement.
When I laid out the circuit, I handled all the connections carefully. They are covered with insulating enamel stones. The wires are not afraid of leakage and short circuit, and they are quite comfortable to use.
The only regret is probably that there are too few electrical appliances. If I had a TV and a DVD player, my life would be much more colorful, and a game console would be even better. Thinking about it, it is beautiful.
I want a TV, a DVD player and a game console, a washing machine, a rice cooker, and a refrigerator. I would never have imagined that life would be so comfortable and convenient until I saw those household appliances at Liang Jiangbo’s house. In hot weather, you can find ice cream popsicles at home at any time, and you can add ice cubes when you drink drinks. Liang Jiangbo grew up in a honey pot of happiness.
Those large appliances are super expensive, and it is difficult to own at my current level, but I believe my home will be fine, I will make a lot of money, so that my parents can also use washing machines and refrigerators, and live a high-tech life life.
The strange light in my house is regarded by the villagers as a masterpiece of "magic" and "witchcraft".
My quarry and logging quarry are also well-operated. A large amount of wood is piled up to be dried and processed in the shade. Stone materials are also continuously transported to the construction site at the entrance of the village to build a thick stone wall.
Building the wall is a big project that the whole village, men and women, young and old, can't help showing pride when they look at the construction site. The five-meter-high stone wall has only a small section even in the town. The first phase of the project is planned to exceed the size of the town.
The first phase of the village planning is expected to be completed within three years. Starting from the entrance of the village, curved stone walls will be built on both sides to embrace the village. A part of Luhe Village is a cliff. Depending on the terrain, as long as the curved stone wall is closed with the cliff, The defensive power of the village can be greatly increased.
Next is the second-phase plan. The second-phase plan is to reinforce the existing stone walls in the village. It will not only increase the height, but also thicken it. It will take three to five years to make Luhe Village a fortress that is easy to defend and difficult to attack. No more fear of robbers or scoundrels.
The first and second phase plans are only short-term plans, and the longer-term plans are only good ideas at present. Even if ideas such as unified planning, relocation of residential houses, land improvement, establishment of commercial centers and castles can be realized, it will take more than ten or twenty years. . No one knows what Luhe Village was like at that time, and we don't know if there will be the same thoughts at that time.
The construction site on this side was in full swing, and the villagers who were sent to the town to inquire about the news returned to the village with the caravan, looking like a concubine.
The merchant team that came with the villagers was a disgrace. There were more women and children in the team than before, and the goods they carried were less than half of what they promised last year.
In this case, the villagers don't have the heart to jump around in a hurry, and I have no way to accuse the merchants of not keeping their promises. Even if they ask for double the final payment, other materials are sold for more than three times the original amount.
"This is already very good," the middle-aged man leading the caravan was very serious: "The north side of Qihuotun and the surrounding villages are bad for werewolves. We were attacked many times along the way, and four people died, if it wasn't for the deposit last year. For my sake, I won't risk my life to inform you."
This caravan leads the family's business for generations, and takes credit very seriously. This time they tried their best to send us news. According to the information, the werewolf will arrive near Luhe Village in at most half a month.
"Wolfman" is my translation.
In their language, this is a monster that bites people and turns them into hairy, fangs and completely irrational monsters. This monster has a certain wisdom and will attack the village in a planned way, infecting the villagers to expand. numbers, then grow into stronger and more dangerous beings by eating each other.
I don't know if those "wolves" really look like wolves, and I don't know if they have tails. All I know is that they are expanding very fast, especially with the lack of "natural enemies" this year, and there are hardly any villages. If it can be resisted, even smaller towns are likely to be besieged and destroyed in the next time.
The natural enemy of the "Wolfman" is a huge bird domesticated by the lord of the north. In the eyes of these birds, the werewolf who is good at hiding has nothing to hide. Businessmen say that every autumn over the vast mountains and forests in the north, giant birds with capes and large necklaces fly in the sky. They feed on people infected with werewolf disease and prevent the spread of werewolf disease.
But in the previous year, the territory of the northern lord was invaded. Although his castle was not captured, most of the giant birds he tamed were poisoned and killed by the enemy.
The remaining giant birds were unable to patrol the vast mountains and fields, and last fall, the enemy deliberately spread the plague around Juhuotun in the north to create werewolves. The severely injured northern lord was unable to suppress it at all, and had already blocked the castle, only waiting for the Principality to send troops to relieve the siege.
The werewolves that have just been infected and transformed are small in stature and weak in attack power. Ordinary farmers can defeat them with sticks, but the strong individuals that appear after the werewolves devour each other are much more dangerous. They are strong and fast, and ordinary soldiers are not their opponents at all. , three or five adults can barely match with metal weapons, and once they are scratched and bitten, they will get sick. If they don't take medicine in time, they will lose their minds and become a werewolf in a few days.
The caravan's people left in a hurry after changing to the gem. They did not dare to go back the same way. They were going to go west, over the mountains and mountains all the way to their stronghold in the town on the other side of the mountain. The people in the caravan also advised us to pack up and leave as soon as possible, and it would be too late to run away when the werewolf was nearby.
...
that was a bolt from the blue!
Not only was I struck by lightning, but the village was also mourning. Everyone's good days had just begun, and I didn't expect it to end.
"We have lived here for generations. No matter how big the disaster, our ancestors and fathers have been able to bear it. We will never leave!"
The secretary did not say a word. His family sent him a message through the villagers, asking him to pack up immediately and set off early in the morning to join his family's team near the river mouth outside the village and go to a neighboring country for refuge.
The old man Galle was the saddest. His eldest daughter married a village south of Juhuotun. He heard that the surrounding area of Juhuotun had completely turned into a Jedi. He couldn’t help but burst into tears. revenge.
The town has become a mess, and now Luhe Village is in a panic. Everyone is packing up their food and fleeing. The shadow of death covers the entire sky.
Although I am young, I have to express my opinion.
Seeing that the three people with the most voice in the village are now downcast, everyone can only hope that I can say something to cheer everyone up.
The villagers who work in my logging quarry and quarry are also waiting for my decision. My logging quarry and quarry have not stopped. They eat the meals I give them, take my salary, and use the Get the tools here, and they trust me too.
But what do I have in mind?
How often do the werewolves come to the village? Can the steel bars and steel pipes in the village defend against the attack of the werewolf? Can we get enough to eat until the werewolves leave or are wiped out?
I don't know anything, I'm no different from them, just a headless fly.
I can't bear to see Luhe Village, it's a place that I've put a lot of effort into guarding. I've devoted a lot of things here. I thought I'd live here for many, many years. My son would grow up here and he would witness it. The little village has turned into a small town, and one day it will even become a prosperous and happy town...
Why is there such a thing as a werewolf?
I don’t want to run, and I don’t want to give up Luhe Village, but the speed of building the wall is too slow. Even if we give us a whole year, we can’t build a waist-high low wall at all. It was still a wise and ferocious monster.
Why is my ability improving so slowly, and I still can't build walls with stones?
If I can build a high wall with my abilities, I can protect the village, protect my own home, and anything that hurts us will be kept out.
"Master Kain..." Hussain, the steward of my quarry, called me, interrupting my thoughts.
"I know," I shook my head and took a deep breath and faced them: "I'm going to leave and tell everyone in the village that those who are willing to leave with me pack up now, and we'll leave early tomorrow morning."
"Where are we going? "Hussein must know that no place is safe now, and the only possible way to avoid the werewolf disaster is to go over the mountain like a caravan to the opposite side of the mountain.
"We also go up the mountain."
"...Understood." Hussein nodded and ran out to inform others of my decision.
