Chapter 46 Another Miracle
Ruan Mianmian methodically directed Yu to find some logs of uniform thickness and suitable length, and to place them neatly at the entrance of the cave.
After completing this task, Ruan Mianmian personally took charge of preparing the mud and bricklaying.
First, she found a few little orc companions and asked them to help her crush the straw she brought back.
Then she fetched some lake water and mixed the shredded straw with it.
As time went by, everything was ready, and the long-awaited moment of "playing in the mud" finally arrived!
Some lively and energetic little beastmen, unable to contain their curiosity and excitement, rushed forward to join in the joyful game as soon as they saw Ruan Mianmian happily stomping on the pile of soft, damp mud.
At this moment, Sen, who was standing quietly watching from the side, had a few subtle hints of tenderness flash across his large and deep eyes.
He thought to himself: Isn't this the peaceful and beautiful life I've always longed for?
And so, amidst laughter and joy, time flew by.
Before long, Ruan Mianmian felt that the mud had been mixed just right, so she turned to the little beastmen beside her and whispered, "Go to the cave and see if Yu has found enough logs. If he has, we can start building the wall right away!"
After saying that, she waited expectantly for the little beastmen to bring back good news.
As the sound of Yu flapping his wings reached her ears, Ruan Mianmian knew that everything was ready.
She gathered some large leaves and filled them with the mixture of clay and straw, giving each of the little beastmen some to take to the cave, and then had Senhan take a large gulp of lake water back into the cave as well.
Outside the cave, an orc who knew how to dig had already dug a small hole. Ruan Mianmian had Sen spit the water in his mouth into this hole to use as a water storage tool. At this moment, she didn't care about the water anymore.
"Little female, what should we do next?"
Yu looked at the pile of logs in the cave and asked a question.
Since it was only a winter protection measure, there was no issue of its longevity, so Ruan Mianmian ignored the thick bark on the log.
She directed everyone to place the logs down along the side of the cave entrance, and then led the little orcs to spread the clay mixture they had just prepared onto the logs.
After laying one layer, she directed them to place another layer of logs on top.
The little beastmen thought this was some kind of game and became quite excited. They worked together with the female, piling up logs and soil layer by layer, and soon they had built a tall wall.
The little orc, hiding behind the wall inside the cave and unable to feel the breeze outside, suddenly realized the advantage of the wall.
When Mori and Yu saw it, they both showed expressions of disbelief.
The problem that had troubled them for so long was solved by the little female, and solved so easily?
To them, it was truly incredible that just a few logs and some soil could block the cold wind.
Having experienced the benefits of this wall, everyone's enthusiasm soared.
Yu led the flying little beastman to the side of the valley to collect clay, while Sen led the little beastman to stomp in the mud by the lake.
As for Ruan Mianmian, she's currently patching up the gaps by following the light.
The water outside the cave came in handy. She smeared slightly thinner clay into the cracks along the protrusions of the logs, so that it wouldn't let in drafts in winter.
Slowly, they built a high wall, and Sen, Yu, and the other little beastmen marveled at what they considered yet another miracle.
