Rebirth, end of the world, time travel, escape famine, make money!

The sunlight shines through the sparse clouds, dappled onto the two busy people, adding a touch of warmth to this somewhat arduous work.

Father Liu's forehead was covered with fine beads of sweat, but the shovel in his hand never stopped, and every swing seemed so firm and powerful.

Luo Hongze was carefully selecting stones to ensure that each piece would fit snugly into the edge of the cave, making it both stable and beautiful.

The two men had a clear division of labor. In a short while, they piled up stones on half of the cave entrance, leaving the other half as the entrance and exit. When the time came, they would put the fence gate on top to perfectly cover the entire cave entrance.

The area at the back that was blocked by stones was flattened by Liu's father with a shovel, cleaned up, and covered with some stones. Then the bamboo beds and hay were put on it to make a large bunk bed where they could rest at night.

"Old Luo, you take a break, I'll shovel this side." Luo Hong smiled, said nothing more, walked to the side and took out a rope and a machete.

"Okay, you clean up here, I'll go out and chop some bamboo. You can build a frame in the middle and make a new fence gate. It's also troublesome to move the thatched house over, so it's better to rebuild it. I'll chop some more bamboo."

Father Liu thought about it and it made sense. "We need to make the fence gate bigger. Please cut more bamboos. Then the gate needs to be sturdy. It will be bad if the wind blows it away at night because it is very windy."

At that time, a frame will need to be built in the middle of the cave, and then a fence will be woven to separate it. Men will sleep outside the cave entrance, and women will sleep inside.

Father Liu had almost finished cleaning up the cave and went to collect firewood near the cave. After running four or five times, it was gradually getting dark!

Luo Hong cut a lot of bamboo and piled them on the slope below the cave entrance.

"That's enough. Let's take a break. We've been tired all day and there's no end to the work."

As time passed, the sun gradually set and the sky was dyed with gorgeous sunset glow.

The two of them sat at the door waiting for other people to arrive. Just after they sat down to rest for a while, they saw a group of moving figures appearing one after another in the valley from afar.

After seeing the people, Liu's father and Luo Hong hurriedly ran out of the cave to meet them. Not long after they walked, they saw Mrs. Tan walking in front, leading a mud mule.

The people behind were all adults carrying backpacks and baskets, the older children were carrying their own bags and helping to carry a lot of things, and the younger children were held in the adults' arms.

The cart was pushed by Liu Caiyun. She was the only one who could push it as the terrain went uphill.

Luo Hong ran over and took Luo Junning from Qi Xin's arms. Luo Junning was too young to walk by herself, and Qi Xin was so tired from holding her all the way.

After Luo Hong took the child over, she instantly felt much more relaxed.

When she had nothing in her hands, she went to help Liu Caiyun push the cart up the mountain.

This section of the road is very steep. After walking through it, there is a relatively small flat ground. The cave is more than one meter above the ground.

After reaching the flat ground, Father Liu looked at their belongings and asked:

"Let's move the things up first and see if we have enough time to make another trip?"

Liu Caiyun looked at the two women in front of her, and Liu Xiaomei, who was held by Liu Caixia. Seeing that they were quite far away, she whispered:

"Uncle Luo, there's no need to run anymore. They have already quietly put away many of the other things. We'll take some out later under the cover of the backpacks. This cart is the only thing that's hard to put away. When the terrain is too steep and difficult to walk on, they came to help. We also collected a lot of firewood along the way! We'll take it out slowly when the time comes, so it won't be too conspicuous."

"No wonder the three kids followed Lin Weizhong and Liu Caiyun and walked at the back! It's so relaxing that we don't have to run another trip. We can rest early after cleaning up today!"

Fang Chenhao, who was hiding on Lin Weizhong's back, heard Luo Hong talking about the three children and poked his head out to laugh.

"Grandpa Luo, this is a secret that cannot be told!"

"I know, Grandpa Luo won't tell you!"

As he said this, he put his index finger on his mouth and made a "hush" gesture. Luo Junning in his arms followed suit, although he didn't know what he was hushing about!

The mule was led from the other side of the cave to the open space, and a triangular frame was built with bamboo poles, on which a waterproof cloth could be placed to prevent rain. The mule was tied to a large rock and rested inside the shed to avoid the rain.

Liu's father and Luo Hong built a ladder with stones next to it, which made it much more convenient for them to go up and down the cave.

After the people in front went in, the people behind them squeezed in one after another, providing cover in a mess. In the end, they took out a lot of things, and soon one side of the cave was full of things and firewood, with only a few empty backpacks left next to it.

It seemed as if these things were taken out of the backpack. The action was so quick that no one else could react, let alone the two old women.

After settling down, they started to make a fire. Because they had roasted a lot of dry firewood, the firewood here was too wet and there was no way to start a fire.

As night fell, they quickly lit a fire with dry wood, which warmed the cave. The cave was instantly bright, and they lit fires in every corner of the cave to warm the cave. The only bad thing about living in a cave is that it is too humid, and using fires to warm it up will make it much better.

When the fire was lit, the cave instantly became brighter, and the sky outside became darker.

I don’t know if it’s because we’re in the mountains, but I always feel that the wind, rain and thunder are stronger and louder.

"The wind seems to be stronger at night, so let's quickly make a fence to cover the entrance of the cave."

Finally, with the joint efforts of Liu's father, Luo Hong and Lin Weizhong, a simple fence gate was soon completed.

One side of the cave entrance was cleverly blocked, leaving only a frame at the left entrance that had not yet been fenced as a passage.

Inside the cave, the carefully prepared area has begun to take shape. The stone-paved ground is flat and solid, as if waiting for the bamboo beds and hay to be placed on it.

The bamboo bed was made very low and placed directly on the stone ground on both sides. They worked together to build the bamboo bed and then covered it with soft hay. In this way, a simple but warm temporary residence was built.

"All right!"

"It looks good. Let's light two more fires to roast it and dry it out a bit."

In this small space, they not only built a safe haven to protect from wind and rain, but also provided spiritual comfort to calm the wandering people's hearts.

Although it's just a temporary shelter, it's getting better and better.
