Chapter 175 Chinese-style courtyard in the mountains, a small world for two people
early morning.
Dew and fog appeared at the same time, and there was a little more moisture in the small courtyard.
The mountains against it also looked misty, as if they were in desperate need of sunlight to dispel the fog.
Zhang Hao stood in the small courtyard and took a deep breath. He felt that his nose was filled with water vapor, but he didn't feel too uncomfortable.
In the kitchen, Li Siyu was sitting making breakfast, lunch that he had to carry up the mountain, and dinner that just needed to be heated when he came back in the evening.
After Zhang Hao prepared delicious food for Xiaobai, Li Siyu walked out of the kitchen with breakfast.
Zhang Hao then got up and started busying with Li Siyu. Then he sat at the dining table. They each picked up their bowls and chopsticks and started eating.
Today we have to go into the mountains to build a house, which is a big project. We must eat well, otherwise we will easily get hungry before dinner time.
Of course, what needs to be done today are not fine movements, but heavy work, such as cutting down trees, looking for wood, or building a simple frame for a house.
Zhang Haolai naturally did these tasks, while Li Siyu was responsible for the design drawings of the entire house.
The two had a clear division of labor. After breakfast, they both returned to their respective rooms to make preparations.
After walking out of the door again.
Li Siyu changed into a lighter plain Hanfu, and her hair was tied up with a simple hairpin. She was carrying a cloth bag, which contained measuring tools, drawings, pens and the like.
After she goes to a place, she first measures the land, then calculates various distances between buildings, etc., and then reflects it on the drawings, and finally enters the construction process.
It can be said that her work today is particularly important. What kind of house she and Zhang Hao can live in in the future will depend on her performance.
Li Siyu was still a little nervous about this.
After all, she had never been exposed to such a thing, and had never actually participated in the work of building a house.
Zhang Hao was well prepared, carrying several bundles of thick hemp ropes, a diesel wood saw, an ax and other tools on his back.
To build a house, the first thing needed is wood. If you just use an ax to chop down trees, Zhang Hao may not be able to collect the wood needed during the house construction process, even if he is exhausted.
Xiaobai sat at the feet of the two of them and looked at them very excitedly. His tail was wagging and was about to fly up, as if he already knew that he was about to enter the mountain, and he also seemed to know that he was going to build a house in the mountain. thing.
Zhang Hao and Li Siyu looked at each other.
"Let's go?"
"Yeah."
The two of them took Xiaobai out of the house and walked along the village path towards the mountain.
Arriving at the foot of the mountain, Zhang Hao simply performed a ritual of worshiping the mountain god.
Nowadays, every time he goes into the mountains, he will first worship the mountain gods. It is not because he can gain anything from this trip. In fact, the most important thing is that it is a habit or a belief. Asking the mountain gods to bless this trip into the mountains. Able to return safely.
In the same way, this is also a kind of rule, a rule that a mountain walker must abide by.
He took Li Siyu and Xiaobai into the mountains again.
Zhang Hao was not polite and asked Xiaobai to call the stupid deer, while he started searching nearby.
"What are you looking for?" Li Siyu asked curiously.
Zhang Hao sighed: "Today, when we ask that stupid deer to contribute, we need to give him some sweetness in advance, otherwise this guy will not be able to contribute. Really, this guy is too smart."
As he spoke, he pulled out a piece of gastrodia elata that had not fully grown from the ground. After looking at it, he threw it into the basket casually, waiting to be eaten by the mountain deer.
Later, he found some wild fruits nearby, and some things that were not very valuable and that mountain deer liked to eat.
It was also at this time.
Xiaobai came back, and behind him was the fat and strong mountain god deer with a proud look on his face.
Seeing the sacred deer coming, Zhang Hao handed the basket forward.
The aroma of the mountain food immediately followed the basket into the mountain god deer's nose, causing it to lower its proud head for a moment. The black nose kept sniffing, and even swallowed saliva like a human being.
It is also understandable that he didn't eat much yesterday, and today he was called by Zhang Hao. When he smelled the fragrance of this mountain thing, he must have been a little uncontrollable.
Zhang Hao did not give it to him immediately, but said: "There are a lot of things that you need to do today. If you want to eat, you have to work. Do you understand?"
How can the Mountain God Deer face this basket full of temptations? The huge head nods like a chicken pecking at rice, as if saying: I will work hard, hurry up and feed me!
Li Siyu found it very funny.
After all, the mountain deer is considered an intelligent animal, and it should be stronger than those foxes, right?
He even said that he should be smarter than Xiaobai?
But why can you be so obedient just for the sake of eating? It's quite funny when you think about it.
Of course, there must be reasons for Zhang Hao's tameness and Zhang Hao's status as a mountain walker.
Thinking of this, she set her sights on Zhang Hao. At this moment, she still felt that Zhang Hao was still as mysterious as before.
She obviously knew about Zhang Hao's mountain walk and how powerful Zhang Hao was, but she always felt that Zhang Hao still had a lot of backhands that he had not used, and Zhang Hao was definitely not just what she saw. , it should still be more powerful.
Such a mountain god deer can be tamed with food, which is enough to illustrate this point.
Thinking like this, she saw Zhang Hao put the basket in his hand in front of the mountain god deer.
As soon as he put it down, the huge head of the mountain deer pushed into the basket and started eating as if he was hungry.
Xiaobai, on the other hand, was wagging his tail and running around the mountain god deer.
Perhaps Xiaobai and the Mountain God Deer had become familiar with each other in the past few days. The Mountain God Deer even took out a piece of Polygonum multiflorum in its mouth and placed it in front of Xiao Bai.
Seeing this, Xiaobai started eating with big mouthfuls, and his belly was round.
Zhang Hao looked on, shaking his head, laughing, and sighed silently.
It didn't take long for the mountain god deer to finish eating the things in the basket. To him, these things could only be regarded as enough for a general.
Zhang Hao waited for him to finish eating, then helped Li Siyu get on the deer's back, took Xiaobai on the deer's back, and headed towards the location of yesterday's [Seven-Star Chessboard Case].
The speed of the Mountain God Deer was still very fast and steady. It didn't take long for the group to arrive at the location of the [Seven-Star Chessboard Case].
Walk through the dense forest in front of you. Li Siyu looked at the large piece of flat land in front of him, his beautiful eyes full of surprise.
She had never thought that there was such a large open space in this mountain.
What surprised her even more was that when she looked up, the top of her head was already covered by the canopy of the surrounding trees, like a natural dome. No matter how dazzling the sunlight outside was, with the cover of these canopies, it was still here. Not too sunny.
The temperature is suitable, the summer is cool, and the winter is not covered by heavy snow.
From these two points alone, this is definitely a Feng Shui treasure land.
It's hard for Zhang Hao to find such a place, it looks really good.
Of course, it would be better if there was a lake in front of this open space, but she naturally knew how there could be perfect things in this world.
When she saw the open space in front of her, she was already thinking about what it would be like to live here in the future.
She and Zhang Hao lived here, accompanied by the gurgling sounds of birds, and then smoke emitted from the house. After eating, they walked around in the mountains. Zhang Hao found some precious things in the mountains, and she I was looking for things that I could make in the mountains and then use them as video materials.
After living here for a long time and her illness is cured, then...the two of them can get married here.
As soon as this thought came to his mind, Li Siyu's face instantly turned rosy.
"Here is the center of the house we want to build. Just use this point as the center of the house and expand outwards. The house can be built big or small, but there is a general range. I will explain it later. The value in this range tells you that you must not exceed this value when designing, otherwise the effect of this feng shui treasure land will be greatly reduced." Zhang Hao did not notice Li Siyu's change, but walked to the point. , pulled out the invasion knife stuck on the ground, put it back at his waist and put it away.
In Feng Shui, when a point is used to build something, the size of the construction is also considered. It does not mean that you can build as big as you want.
Just like here, the house built cannot exceed the location of the mountain, let alone the spiritual limit of the [Chessboard Plan], otherwise the extra space will have no effect, which will affect the effect of the entire house.
"Well, okay." Li Siyu quickly came back from his fantasy and responded.
Zhang Hao looked around and then said: "If you want to shoot here, just follow the previous rules. There is nothing that you can't shoot here, and don't go too far, just stay here." ”
"I'll leave Xiaobai here with you, and I'll take the Mountain God Deer out. But don't worry, even though Xiaobai is small in size, if something happens, Xiaobai's cry is the most useful. Once it barks, You can wake up.”
"And..."
Zhang Hao searched his mind and told Li Siyu all the precautions he could think of. He was afraid that she would not remember it, so he simply repeated it.
"What style of house do you want to build here?" Zhang Hao asked.
Li Siyu pondered for a while: "My idea is to build a house similar to a Chinese courtyard style. The main structure of the house is entirely composed of wood, using as little sand bricks and as little cement as possible."
"There should be a small courtyard paved with bluestone bricks in front of the house, and then a small vegetable plot should be opened in the courtyard for daily growing of vegetables."
"I don't want to use green tiles on the top of the house. I'll use wood as much as possible. The surface can be painted with an anti-moth paint."
"As for the windows, my idea is to use wooden windows to match the style of the mountain forest as much as possible. We can make the furniture, beds, etc. ourselves, so I can also shoot videos."
< br>
Following her words, the corresponding scene appeared in Zhang Hao's mind: "Then design it according to your idea."
"Yeah!" Li Siyu nodded heavily, with a smile on his lips.
After that, he took the tools he had prepared and left the clearing on the mountain deer.
And Li Siyu could finally show off her skills. She took out various measuring tools from the bag.
Then, he walked to the place where Zhang Hao had inserted the invasion knife. According to Zhang Hao, he measured the distance around this place as the center, and finally recorded it on paper. He could put the data on the computer at night. , began to design the cabin she and Zhang Hao had in the mountains.
Xiaobai followed Li Siyu's butt, wagging his tail, and followed patiently, with his little pink tongue exposed, breathing.
……
In the mountains and forests.
Zhang Hao rode a mountain deer and galloped on the forest path. The speed was not slow, but a little fast.
This was what Zhang Hao told the Mountain God Deer to hurry up. This time he rode the Mountain God Deer out not to find anything, but to have a clear goal.
That is to find the ginkgo forest in this mountain.
It is naturally a piece of cake to leave this kind of matter to the mountain god deer.
It didn't take long for the mountain god deer to carry Zhang Hao to a ginkgo forest.
Zhang Hao turned over and got off the back of the deer. He looked at the green ginkgo leaves in front of him, which had not yet turned yellow, as well as the thick and towering tree trunks. Then he looked into the distance. This ginkgo forest was simply He couldn't see beyond the horizon. Seeing this, his eyes gradually became brighter.
The ginkgo tree is known as the tree of residence among the people. It is a symbol of longevity. It is said that planting it at home can ensure the health and safety of the family, especially for the elderly and children.
Zhang Hao agrees with this.
This is indeed the case. In Feng Shui, the ginkgo tree governs water, and water is the source of life. Naturally, it has the meaning of controlling life. Planting a ginkgo tree at home means bringing the source of life into the home. Naturally, it means Be good to your family.
The elderly and children are favored by the source of life. It is naturally beneficial for one to be young and the other to be old.
But this time Zhang Hao came to this ginkgo forest not to dig up a ginkgo tree and bring it back to the location of the [Seven-Star Chessboard Case] for planting.
He came here this time to cut wood.
Everyone knows that the ginkgo tree can be planted at home, but only mountain walkers know that the ginkgo tree can also be used to build houses.
The ginkgo tree governs water and is known as the source of life, so it is naturally related to the yin energy. In Feng Shui, water has always been biased towards the yin energy, so the ginkgo tree is also called the yin tree. In the eyes, they can also be regarded as trees that provide shade.
They are generally used to build houses, rafts, and other things.
The main benefit of using ginkgo trees to build houses is that although the ginkgo tree controls yin, it also isolates the yin energy. It has the same effect as mountain ghost ginger, but the effect of the ginkgo tree will be greater.
And houses built with ginkgo trees are moisture-proof. The humidity in the mountains is heavy, and things like bedding are extremely easy to get moldy. But if the house is built with ginkgo trees, there will be no such problem. To a certain extent, it can It’s no problem to keep the quilt on for half a month.
There is an even greater advantage, that is, the trunk of the ginkgo tree is relatively straight, which is perfect for building houses.
After taking the diesel saw off the deer's back, Zhang Hao picked up the diesel saw and first focused on a ginkgo tree in the ginkgo forest, which was not particularly strong.
Then, he stepped forward and pulled out the chainsaw.
"Buzz buzz~"
The sound of the diesel saw suddenly rang out, resounding throughout the dense forest and echoing for a long time.
Zhang Hao also took a chainsaw and started sawing from the root of the ginkgo tree.
