In the first year of Yuanxing, on the third day of November, it snowed for the first time.
There was a snowfall at night, covering the land of Tianhan and Han Dynasty. When we woke up in the morning, the whole world was completely white.
The camp building the river channel has already built houses. In the autumn, everyone can sleep in the open air. But as the weather gets colder, the Third Qu Carpentry Camp also built houses for everyone.
And this house is the kind of simple wooden house that can be built and disassembled at any time and can be taken away at any time.
Rows of houses are built on river embankments made of stones and silt on both sides of the river. Although they are made of silt, the silt has long since dried, and with the cold weather, the soil has gradually frozen.
Yesterday afternoon, Yansheng and the women who stayed in Fengcheng brought clothes to keep out the cold for the people who were building the river.
Most of these clothes are sewn with animal fur and linen, which can barely keep out the cold.
The land of Tianhan is very poor now, and there is no way to wear better warm clothes.
But every winter in the past, people were more miserable than they are now. At least they now have warm houses, enough food, and more clothes.
In past winters, people would freeze to death every year.
Now there are many people in the camp who are sick. Zhang Daoling personally checks on them one by one and then lets them rest in their rooms without working.
Zhang Daoling asked everyone in Siqu to set aside some of them to take care of those who were sick.
In addition, Zhang Daoling also personally went to swamps and wild forests to collect herbs to treat everyone's illnesses.
General Han led the remaining people to continue digging the river. It was very difficult to dig the river in winter, because the silt was frozen into ice, and ice slag splashed everywhere when he put the hoe down.
To this end, Third Quji tried to think of a way, which was to pile the sawdust, wood and unused wood from their Third Qu Carpentry Camp to the place where the river channel was to be excavated.
Then the piled wood is ignited, the trees are cut down, and the unused branches and trunks are added to the fire.
In this way, firstly, the ice layer can be melted, and secondly, people working on the construction can be kept warm.
In this way, ten huge bonfires were burning with blazing flames beside the construction river. People who were more than ten meters away from the fires could still feel the hot temperature rushing towards their faces.
The carpentry camp was divided into fifty people, and each five people ensured that a bonfire continued to burn.
At noon, the people stopped the construction, set out some small fires from the big bonfires, then set up iron pots and started making lunch.
The so-called lunch is soup cooked with dried meat and wild vegetables, and then eaten with dry and hard noodles.
¡°While more than a hundred iron pots were simmering hot soup, Zhang Daoling, dressed in coarse cloth and single clothes, walked over with a basket on his back.
When everyone saw this, they immediately stood up and saluted Zhang Daoling.
Zhang Daoling came to the construction site, put down his backpack, pointed to the rhizomes of a certain plant inside and said, "When you make soup, put a piece of this asparagus root in and cook together. This thing can enhance your physical fitness and avoid getting sick."
After hearing this, everyone came up one after another and took out a root from the basket, washed it with water, and put it into an iron pot to stew.
Zhang Daoling glanced around and saw General Han sitting alone in front of an iron pot not far away.
Zhang Daoling walked towards General Han and sat down next to him.
General Han turned his head and saw Zhang Daoling, he laughed and shouted: "Shenjun."
General Han has to drink an iron pot of soup and eat twenty pieces of bread by himself, so every time there is a fight, a small stove is opened for him.
Although the relationship between the common people present and General Han is very good, everyone teaches General Han to speak word by word.
But because General Han is a magician from the Tianhan Divine Mansion, everyone still gave him the greatest respect and did not really treat him like a child.
General Han called Shenjun, and then withdrew his eyes, looking straight at the iron pot in front of him that was filled with the aroma of meat.
Because the dried meat is marinated in salt water, it contains salt.
Although they didn¡¯t know how to extract the salt from the salt mine, the people thought of another way, which was to get an iron pot and fill it with water.
??Then wash the salt ore and put it into the iron pot, then put the meat in and soak it for a few days, and then take it out to dry in the sun, so that the salt will naturally appear.
¡®Gudu¡¯ ¡®Gudu¡¯ ¡®Gudu¡¯
The soup in the iron pot began to boil, and General Han showed a thick smile on his face.?A look of eagerness and anticipation.
He took the bread out of the basket and placed it on his lap, then waited quietly for the broth to be cooked.
"How about I add some ingredients for you?" Zhang Daoling said from the side.
General Han turned his head to look at Zhang Daoling, and then said blankly: "Shenjun, I won't get sick, and I don't like the taste of dragon's root."
"It's not dragon's root." Zhang Daoling smiled, and then took out a sheepskin baggage from his sleeve.
I saw Zhang Daoling opening the sheepskin baggage, and a large piece of bear meat suddenly appeared in front of General Han.
"This is what Yansheng brought to me last night." Before Zhang Daoling finished speaking, General Han's eyes were already straight.
Zhang Daoling smiled, raised his hand and threw the piece of bear meat into the iron pot.
With a ¡®plop¡¯ sound, the broth splashed high, along with the rich aroma.
"Eat it." Zhang Daoling smiled.
"Oh." General Han took a sip of saliva, then stretched out his left hand to hold up the red-hot bottom of the iron pot, reached into the boiling broth with his right hand, grabbed the bear meat, and took a bite.
General Han held the bottom of the iron pot with a temperature of nearly 300 degrees as if he had no feeling at all. He just smacked his mouth and ate the bear meat with a face full of enjoyment.
Soon, all the large pieces of bear meat that Zhang Daoling brought were eaten away. General Han fished in the broth with his right hand, and then looked at Zhang Daoling with disappointment.
"Sir, please let them take more next time." General Han said.
"Haha, I want to take more, but how can there be so much bear meat?" Zhang Daoling patted the back of General Han's head, "Now just eat your meat soup cakes."
General Han, who had eaten bear meat, felt that when he ate the noodles again, he felt that it was boring and very bland.
But if you don¡¯t eat, you might get greedy again later, so General Han still sipped the soup and ate the noodles.
Fortunately, the aroma of bear meat remained in this soup, and General Han drank it with relish.
After lunch, everyone packed up the iron pots and huddled around the fire, leaning against each other to chat, take a nap, and rest.
After about half an hour, everyone got up and continued working.
In the blink of an eye, a month and a half passed, and it was December 15th of the first year of Yuanxing.
On this day, Zhang Daoling gathered more than 2,000 people from all four sides of the river camp together.
Everyone stood in front of ten bonfires, with the blazing bonfire behind them and their most revered god in front of them.
Just listen to Zhang Daoling say: "Today is December 15th. Since September, everyone has worked hard to dig and build the river. Now it has penetrated the land of Tianhan for 400 miles. This is all due to everyone's credit, all of you." It¡¯s a must.¡±
The people did not dare to take credit, and they all said that this was the credit of the God King, and that it was the God King who led them to do such a great thing.
"Don't be humble, everyone. I am not convening you today to discuss whose contribution. The river channel has not been completed yet, and we still have a long way to go." Zhang Daoling said.
Zhang Daoling continued: "I want to tell everyone today that starting from today, in the next month, everyone can go home and reunite with their families."
"go home?"
"Why do you want to go home?"
"Isn't the river channel going to be dug?"
"We are going home, who will dig the river channel?"
The people heard that they were going home. Although they were happy to be reunited with their families, they did not give up on the river they had worked hard for so long.
Zhang Daoling smiled and said: "The river channel must continue to be dug. Let's go back and reunite with our families first. On January 15th next year, we will continue to build the river channel."
After saying this, everyone understood. Fang Chu said: "Shenjun, are you giving us a rest?"
Taking a break is similar to a holiday in modern society.
Zhang Daoling nodded and said: "That's right, everyone will take a month off and continue the construction in the spring next year."
"Now, pack up the camp, take away what should be taken away, leave what should be left behind, put out the fire, and cover the fire with soil. Then, everyone goes home!"
