Chapter 184 Stone
After a hasty lunch, the grandfather and grandson went directly to the place most familiar to their memory, carrying a box full of tools.
"Grandpa, I think we should bring a knife..."
The reason why he said this is because the road that was once easy to walk has now been covered by waist-deep weeds and various shrubs.
These five or six years have been really... the seas have been too difficult for water!
Xiao Qi kept laughing after her, and she finally knew why she was more than just sighing non-stop on her side.
We haven't even reached the mountain yet. When we turn around, we can see that our home is still at the foot of the mountain. It's like this. It's hard to imagine what the scenery is like on the mountain.
"You guys wait here, I'll be right back..."
Putting down the box on the shoulders, it was more than a hurricane all the way. The feeling of going down the mountain was that the car could not brake and could only drift forcibly. Fortunately, the old driver did not overturn the car.
Xiaoqi's hatchet is a kitchen knife, but the more than one's is really a hatchet, unless it is a square bone!
Holding a hatchet and pouring a few cups of hot water, it will be a tough battle.
It is always difficult to re-open the road, like this kind of mountain path, even when the villagers were still there, every time the adults went down the mountain after finishing their work, if there was nothing, they would use a hoe to shovel the grass or something .
Not to mention that there has been almost no human habitation in the past few years. After the matsutake incident last time, everyone did clear out some trails, but it's just not as good as before.
"What are those?"
More than just opening the way ahead, Grandpa was watching a play, while Xiao Qi was holding the camera and didn't know what to shoot. Suddenly she pointed to many raised places beside her and asked.
He just stood up, looked at it, and then continued working, wondering what he thought it was.
"They're all cemeteries."
"what?!"
Although Xiaoqi is not as afraid of this as other girls, she still has a little bit of it. After all, flower growers are born with a sense of awe for their deceased ancestors. In addition, the woods that cover the sky and the mountain breeze are a bit cold.
Seeing her reaction, He Zhi turned around and picked up the thermos, and said, "Don't think about it, it's all my He family elders, here, drink more hot water!"
Handing the thermos cup to her hand, he didn't continue to comfort her, after all, he is a straight man made of titanium alloy.
After looking at the destination, and working harder, we will almost reach the place.
The destination is the place where my grandfather used to collect stones. It is halfway up the mountain. This is the place closest to home and with the best stones.
More than home is backed by Tiger Mountain. The exterior of Tiger Mountain is covered by thick soil, and there are only a few places where the stones are exposed.
In the earthquake more than ten years ago, although the place was far away from the epicenter, Tiger Mountain still opened several cracks, from the top of the mountain to the foot of the mountain. Although the cracks were only arm's width, they usually had no effect.
But if the destination of their trip also has cracks, it will be different. Mining will become dangerous. For safety, they can only choose again.
The other place is the place where he often runs through, Shike Bay outside the village, and it is a bit far to transport the stone back from there.
Although he is not afraid, but he is not a fool, why not.
Moreover, the walk back from the nearby place is downhill, which is not very convenient. The poor place in Shike Bay, not to mention the distance, is still uphill.
After more than half an hour, He Zhi finally arrived at the place, looking at the platform full of moss and weeds, feeling a little responsible.
Because it can be seen that these exposed stone scenes have been corroded in the humid environment, and they have to clean up the surface.
"..."
Xiaoqi took the camera and changed several angles of view. After a while of operation, he looked decent.
"Xiao Qi, how about I teach you how to hit rocks?"
Little seven black question marks? ? ?
Then he nodded again, put up the camera, rolled up his sleeves, and spread his hands.
"you sure?"
"Why so much nonsense?"
Rolling his eyes, Xiao Qi directly opened the box, took out the hammer and drill, and ran to Grandpa He Zhi to express his desire to learn.
He Zhi's grandfather, He Qiang, looked at the girl in surprise. In the past two days, the old man expressed that he liked the girl more and more. She was beautiful, hard-working, and skilled... with countless advantages. Fortunately, his grandson also Not bad, otherwise you will wrong others!
If He Zhi knows what grandpa thinks, he will definitely complain. Do you still need to doubt how good your grandson is?
Not only was she still in a daze, Xiao Qi was already banging with her grandfather.
Hitting stones is not an easy job. The hammer is very heavy and the chisel is very hard. Every time the hammer goes down, there will be a reaction force, which makes the drill bounce. It is easy for novices to grind their hands, and they will definitely not be able to do anything the next day. Dry.
After playing for a while, Xiao Qi felt pain in his entire left hand.
It's more than a little distressed, let her look aside, don't waste time.
He picked up her hammer and began to jingle it. He didn't have much skill, although he watched a lot of it with his grandfather when he was young. After all, he didn't have actual combat experience.
Grandpa looked up at him and couldn't help shaking his head. His grandson is really steel, too iron.
The old man began to worry again that if things continued like this, not only would he be a bachelor, but it didn't matter if the brat was a bachelor, it would make him unable to have a great-grandson. This was the biggest sin.
Thinking of this, He Qiang winked at his grandson, but he didn't respond for a long time. Finally, he saw it, and finally said:
"Grandpa, did you get a stone in your eye?"
"..."
Xiaoqi burst out laughing, she was not angry when she was hit by He Zhi just now, after all, she doesn't know what kind of guy He Zhi is after getting along for so long.
It's just that the way the old man hates iron can't make steel, not only that ignorant look, really made her unable to bear it.
Isn't it so interesting to spread your hands and hit rocks?
Seeing that the stone is almost finished, it is more than just putting an iron wedge into the gap that has just been punched.
It is actually very easy to cut a whole piece of stone from the mountain. As long as you can clearly see the texture of the stone and be a little more serious during class, you will know that the formation of the stone is caused by the geographical changes that are squeezed out layer by layer. Some stones are like puff pastry, which can be easily cut off along the texture.
Let Grandpa and Xiao Qi stand aside a little, not only holding the sledgehammer with both hands, this is Grandpa's sharp weapon, swung the sledgehammer up and down several times hard, and the whole big rock was cut off.
"Ness!"
Looking at the large stone that was cut out to be one meter long, six centimeters wide, and five centimeters high, I knew that I was one step closer to completing the task.
After looking at the sky, I could still cut a few more pieces, so I started clinking with grandpa again. Xiaoqi asked grandpa to rest a few times in the middle. I was unwilling to give it a try, but the result was even more pain.
"Don't blame me for not reminding you when it hurts tomorrow..."
