Chapter 683 Building a Snow Nest

Chapter 683 Building a Snow Nest

Liu Hongjun and others found a suitable place and prepared to set up camp.

"Red Army, this place has a wide view, but there is no shelter from the wind and rain?" Zhu Dahai looked around and asked curiously.

"Haha, Brother Haizi, we can build a snow nest!"

"Xuewozi?

Damn it, we have only heard of it, but we have never seen it! "Zhu Dahai shouted.

"Today I will not only make it easy for you, but also let you live in a snow nest!" Liu Hongjun said with a smile.

"But we can't!"

"It doesn't matter, building a snow nest is very simple. You guys first..." Liu Hongjun smiled and briefly explained the steps and methods of building a snow nest to everyone.

In the Northeast, there is no rural child who has never built a snow nest when he was a child.

"Everyone, let's move!" Liu Hongjun shouted loudly after the explanation.

Everyone moved upon hearing the sound and quickly got into intense and orderly work.

We first piled up the snow with shovels, layer by layer, and then piled snow on top, layer by layer.

As time went by, several large snowdrifts were built up, growing taller and taller.

Everyone did not stop and continued to build snowdrifts.

When the pile was almost there, Liu Hongjun stopped.

"Dashan, Shitou, you two are responsible for making lunch, and the others will follow me to continue making snow nests.

Let's first remove the snow from the middle of the snowdrift, leaving a one-meter-thick snow wall around it. "Liu Hongjun explained the next step of the work to everyone.

Zhu Dahai, Jian Hongjie and others began to take out snow. Liu Hongjun was not idle either. He led Guochao and Guangming to make the snow that Zhu Dahai and others took out into snow bricks, which will be used for the roof later.

This job is not easy, but everyone is happy doing it.

As the saying goes, a man is a boy until he dies.

Everyone was working in full swing, and before we knew it, the prototype of Xuewozi was made.

Three large snowdrifts have been hollowed out. Except for one door, the four walls are almost one meter thick.

Then, Liu Hongjun took everyone to the forest to cut branches, cut them into sticks, put them on the top of the snow nest, and then covered them with the newly made snow bricks.

Then put some snow on it, smear it randomly, and paste the seams of the snow bricks.

In this way, the snow nest is made.

Of course, there is one last step.

That is to boil a pot of snow water, pour it on the surface of the snow nest, and let the snow nest freeze.

On this day, the temperature in the mountains was almost minus 30 degrees. It is not just a drop of water that turns into ice.

Let the snow water cool down and before it freezes, pour the snow water on the snow nest and it will freeze instantly.

Through the concerted efforts and sincere cooperation of all members, a snow nest full of warm atmosphere was completed as expected.

Even though the wind is howling and the cold is biting outside, you can feel the warmth inside the snow nest.

Zhu Dahai couldn't hide his excitement and couldn't help shouting: "Wow, this snow nest is so perfect!"

"That's right, everyone can have a comfortable sleep tonight." Liu Hongjun stared at the results created by his own hands, showing great joy.

He has not built this snow nest for many years. If the time he spent in later generations is included, it has been more than fifty years. Looking at the snow nest now, he feels quite nostalgic.

The snow nests they built in the past were not this big, and they did not use snow bricks as roofs.

They all directly build a big snowdrift, and then slowly take out a snow nest from inside.

That kind of snow nest can basically only accommodate one person, but the snow nest like this one is very spacious inside, with more than ten square meters, and can easily accommodate two or three people.

Everyone took the sleeping bags into the snow nest, arranged them, and sat on the sleeping bags chatting and bragging.

At this time, Dashan and Shitou also made lunch.

A pot of hericium and pheasant soup, two honey-roasted half-and-half chickens per person, and a few sticky bean buns per person.

More than 20 sticky bean buns were baked, and everyone took what they wanted according to their appetite.

In fact, no one has such a big appetite. Two half-chickens with honey sauce and two sticky bean buns are enough. At most, they can have a bowl of pheasant soup.

Not as perverted as Liu Hongjun's appetite.

Two half-chickens with honey sauce are just the base, four or five half-chickens with honey sauce, plus five or six sticky bean buns, and a small half pot of pheasant soup.

"Red Army, what are we going to do in the afternoon? Can't we just stay in the snow nest?" After eating, Zhu Dahai asked Liu Hongjun while lying on his sleeping bag with his legs crossed and a cigarette in his mouth.

"In the afternoon, let's go hunting in Yeboar Ridge. It's only four or five miles away from Yeboar Ridge. We can get there in less than an hour.

It’s very convenient to go back and forth! Liu Hongjun said with a smile.

Liu Hongjun was very familiar with Woniugou and Yezhu Ridge. He had been there many times before and would sweep Yezhu Ridge every autumn hunting time.

Wild Boar Ridge was once a paradise for wild boars, but over time, the number of wild boars here has gradually declined.

Nowadays, even the old women in the villages dare to come to this once daunting wild boar ridge to climb mountains in small groups.

Wild boar ridge is named after its rich wildlife resources, especially wild boars.

Although wild boar are no longer as frequent as they once were, Boar Ridge still has many other valuable natural resources.

There are all kinds of mushrooms, fungus, hazelnuts, and soft dates. As long as you are diligent, you can easily pick up two or three sacks a day.

It is precisely because of such rich resources that the wild boars in Yezhu Ridge are endless and endless.

It is sorted out every year, but every year there are still wild boars coming out of Panchang Mountain and coming to Yezhu Ridge to seek a living.

However, no matter what, there are still a lot fewer wild boars in Yeboar Ridge today. Large groups of more than a dozen are rarely seen anymore, and they are mostly small groups of three or five.

It was precisely because of this that Liu Hongjun dared to take Zhu Dahai and his group of laymen to the Wild Boar Ridge for hunting.

"Okay, Wild Boar Ridge. You will know it as soon as you hear it. There are many wild boars in it. Let's set off now. My shotgun is already thirsty!" Zhu Dahai yelled and stood up.

Liu Hongjun smiled, stood up, and followed Zhu Dahai out.

"Wait!" Jian Hongjie suddenly shouted.

"What's wrong?" Everyone turned to look at Jian Hongjie in confusion.

"Well, I suddenly remembered that the deep pit I fell into before seemed not that simple." Jian Hongjie scratched his head.

"What do you mean? It's not simple. Is there really a treasure inside?" Zhu Dahai teased.

“When I was building the snow nest just now, I felt a little familiar.

Just now, I suddenly remembered that the deep pit looked like a den! "Jian Hongjie said.

Diwozi is a kind of building used by mountain people.

As the name suggests, diwozi are built below the ground level.
