Traveling back to ancient times begins with the use of stone tools

Liu Datong held an axe in his hand and kept chopping trees and bamboos.

He was a hunter and was originally planning to go hunting, so when did he start doing farm work?

He couldn't understand why he impulsively agreed to enter the valley?

Maybe it was because he couldn't bear to see the old and the young starve to death right under his nose?

Do you still think Liu Ruxu is pretty?

It’s definitely not because it looks good.

When Liu Ruxu begged him to go into the mountains to help find her child with tears and snot, she looked so thin and haggard that her face could not be seen at all.

Although I am a little fatter and whiter now, I really didn't pay attention to whether Liu Ruxu was good-looking at that time.

"Uncle Liu, take a break, it's time to eat"

Leng Ruoxue and her brother came over with water and pumpkin porridge.

"I stewed a rabbit today, uncle, let's eat rabbit"

Leng Yuxuan has grown a little taller, and his previously dirty face is now fair.

Holding a bamboo tube, "Wash your hands!"

Liu Datong washed his hands with the water in the bamboo tube, then picked up the porridge and started drinking.

It’s sweet, just like the porridge my mother used to make when I was a child.

Leng Yuxuan was wearing clothes and pants that were altered from Liu Datong's old clothes.

The color of the fabric is different from the new fabric.

The crooked patches that I had made before were removed, and now they are straight and neat, looking clean and tidy.

He refused to wear the new clothes made by Auntie and Madam Liu when he was working, and instead wore the old clothes that he insisted on keeping.

"Grandma took apart your old mattress and quilt, washed them, and said they would be dry tonight. Your bed sheet was torn and couldn't be used anymore, so she made you a new one, saying that the bed sheet could be used to make me two pairs of pants."

Leng Yuxuan is a little chatterbox.

Since coming to the valley, I have been talking all the time.

"Grandma said that your mattress is mostly filled with straw, so she needs to put the cotton from the quilt into the mattress and make you a new quilt."

Liu Datong, who was eating with his head down, was stunned for a moment.

He felt that the valley was discovered by the Leng siblings, and the tools for living were gifts from the mountain god, so the Leng family should be put first in everything.

Unexpectedly, I just wanted to use water conveniently and took out half of my brown rice and a few pieces of dried meat.

Now I have a full stomach every day, water to drink, new clothes to wear, and a new quilt.

"Once uncle has chopped down these trees, we will go find prey and make some dried meat for us to eat in the winter."

Liu Datong didn't dare to look into the eyes of the Leng siblings.

He decided to take the bag of brown rice and all the dried meat he had left to the valley.

The dried meat was the reason why he stayed.

Leng Ruoxue looked at Liu Datong and smiled, "Did the mountain god hear Yuxuan's prayers? Is his wish to eat more meat going to come true?"

"Well, it should be."

Liu Datong lowered his head and ate his meal in a daze.

After dinner, he urged the Leng siblings to go back, and he drove the ox cart to carry the wood from the top of the mountain to the valley.

He drove the ox cart back to the deserted village.

Perhaps some people fleeing famine passed through the village, as the yards of several families in the village had been smashed open.

Things were thrown randomly on the ground.

Liu Datong didn't care either. There was nothing he could do about it.

As I was walking, I suddenly broke out in a cold sweat.

Fortunately, I went to the valley.

When he returned to his house, he found that it had been turned upside down and the cellar in the yard had been opened.

Some of the straw inside was turned upside down.

Liu Datong went into the kitchen, opened the cellar hidden in the kitchen, took out all the dried meat and skins, and fled back to the valley.

After hiding the ox cart, putting all the stuff into the cave, and covering the cave entrance, I finally breathed a sigh of relief.

"So much dried meat? I can have a good winter this year."

Aunt Jiang consciously put the skins in the cave where Liu Datong lived and put the dried meat in the big cave.

"Old man, stop making clay models and make me some racks to hang the meat on."

"Okay, I'll make a shelf first, and then we'll build the kitchen. It's not cold yet, and we have all this food at home, so we're afraid that mice will come in."

Originally, we wanted to make the mud bricks to seal the place where everyone lives, but now it seems that we have to seal the kitchen first.

A chimney was built in the kitchen and the door was sealed. It wasn't too hot on weekdays because the straw curtains on the windows were rolled up.

At night, everyone takes turns to take a shower in the kitchen, where they can use hot water and dry their hair at the same time.

Now everyone has a few sets of clothes to change into, so there’s no need to rush to dry them.

Several people felt that their life here was better than in the village.

The rice and other crops were planted a little late, and they were on wasteland. Fortunately, in the end, the temperature in the valley was warmer than outside, so we were able to harvest some.

By the time all the caves were sealed, it was already October and the weather had turned cooler.

The vegetables that should be harvested have been harvested, and there is nothing else to do except chopping wood.

There were not many animals on the mountain, and Liu Datong did not dare to go too far away, so he gave up hunting completely.

Grandpa Wang was doing some carpentry work at the door, arranging the bed, table, chairs and cabinets.

Grandma Jiang and Liu Ruxu hurried to make shoes and cotton-padded clothes for everyone.

Seeing that there was enough firewood, Liu Datong started to find some dry grass to weave baskets, straw sandals, straw ropes and other things.

Apart from learning to read with Liu Ruxu every day, the two children herded sheep.

Sometimes I helped to weave straw ropes, and sometimes I helped to pick up broken wood.

The vegetables and rice in Leng Ruoxue's space grew very well and were not affected by the seasons. The space also had the function of keeping things fresh, so she secretly added things to the kitchen while storing food in the space.

Soon the New Year came again. Liu Datong went out to take a look and found that there were almost no people left in the city. Due to the lack of water, many families moved to other places.

There were not many people at the market, and the winter melons, pumpkins and carrots I brought were not selling.

All the shops were closed and there was nothing to buy.

Just stay in the valley with peace of mind.

After lighting firecrackers and eating the New Year’s Eve dinner, everyone went back to their caves to sleep.

Leng Ruoxue insisted on sleeping in a cave by herself. There was plenty of firewood in the valley, so Grandpa Wang and Liu Datong added a simple stove and chimney for her and let her do what she wanted.

On weekdays, everyone would gather in the kitchen after getting up. If they didn’t want to get up, they would stay in their own caves.

Apart from taking Leng Yuxuan to exercise and eat, Leng Ruoxue basically stays in her own cave and farms in the space.

Everyone was taking a break except her.

In one winter, she planted three crops of grain, but not vegetables.

That day, Leng Ruoxue had finished farming and was tired. When she was lying in the space to rest, she suddenly felt the space shaking. Thinking it was an earthquake, she was so scared that she hurried out of the space.

When I came out, I found that nothing was happening outside.

When I returned to the space, I found that the space had become bigger.

The well is dry again.

Leng Ruoxue didn't know whether to laugh or cry.

This doesn't mean she doesn't want to rest at all.

He resigned himself to his fate and drove the cattle in the space, starting a new round of farming.

Fortunately, there is a valley and water, otherwise, in this severe drought, even if there was space, she felt she would not be able to survive.
