961 - Striking the grass and startling the snake
After eight days of hard work, the No. 1 wasteland was finally reclaimed.
The thief wiped the beads of sweat from his head, held the hoe in his hand, raised his eyes and looked at the wasteland in front of him that had been cultivated for several days, and suddenly felt satisfied.
Ah Wei is taking care of the forty-six cattle that have been working hard for the past few days.
At the beginning, we had no experience in plowing the land with prey, and there was no past in using the plough, which led to the first three days when everyone was in a hurry, in addition, these ploughing cattle did not have any experience in ploughing, and seeing that no one was locked up in themselves, they ran away with joy and joy, and the thief had no choice but to threaten with the razor-toothed tiger and the wolf cub next to the fangs, which did not let the ploughing cattle play freely.
After the rusty period, everyone is obviously a lot faster, no, just five days, five days, the No. 1 land has been successfully reclaimed.
The renovated land wafted with the scent of earth.
Tushan brought a bowl of water to the thief and said, "Patriarch, drink some water." ”
Ji Thief put down the hoe in his hand, took the water and drank it all, then reached out and beat his sore shoulder, and said with a joyful expression on his face: "Next, according to this momentum, before we go on the expedition, we can plant all the wheat." ”
Tushan took the empty bowl in his hand, and said with a ramming voice: "Patriarch, shall we rest for a few days and then go to the No. 2 cultivated land, or do we go immediately?"
Ji Thief thought for a while and said, "Don't worry, now that the land has been reclaimed, we have to transport the manure from the Eastern Plains and bury it in the ground to increase fertility." You call Ah Wei over. ”
Doyama nodded and turned to go.
After a while, Tushan led Ah Wei, who was covered in mud, and the two came to the front and nodded at Ji Thief.
"Patriarch, you call me?"
Ji Thief snorted, and directly found a clean place to sit down.
"Ah Wei, are you tired?"
Ah Wei smiled innocently: "Although I'm a little tired, I still feel very happy." ”
Ji Thief clapped his hands and laughed: "Ah Wei, you are still as honest as ever, in this way, you clean up, leave half of the clansmen, take the other clansmen back to the Eastern Plains, and transport back the feces in the manure tank we dug before." ”
Ah Wei was stunned: "Patriarch, aren't you going back?"
Ji Thief shook his head: "I'll watch here first, and by the way, I'll take the clansmen to reclaim the No. 2 cultivated land." ”
Ah Wei said: "Farewell patriarch, you should go back, I will stay." ”
Ji Thief sneered: "You guy, this is still fighting with me, if you want to go back, you will go back." ”
"It's not the patriarch, you've been working for so many days in a row..."
Ji Thief rolled his eyes and said, "What's wrong, I'm afraid of smelling, can you bear to let me smell it?"
As soon as Ji Thief said this, Ah Wei's expression became sneering: "Then, okay, the patriarch, I'll go back." ”
Ji Thief nodded: "By the way, let's see if the dyeing flowers and plants we got back before are alive." ”
Ah Wei snorted: "Okay." ”
As he spoke, Ah Wei turned around, lit up the clansmen, and headed towards the Lihuo tribe.
Ji Thief looked at the rest of the people, there were about a hundred clansmen from the Ministry of Agriculture, and more than 20 tiger guards, with twelve thunder and fire dead soldiers. There are so many people, and at this time, everyone is looking at the thief.
Ji Thief clapped his hands and said, "Okay, okay, everyone don't look at me like this, rest for an afternoon, and tomorrow, let's go to the No. 2 cultivated land." ”
Everyone nodded vigorously and replied loudly yes.
There was no word for a night, and the next day, everyone went to the No. 2 cultivated land under the leadership of the thief.
It's just that all the grease brought last time was used up, and this time, there are no raw materials for the method of burning again, seeing this situation, Tushan asked Ji Thief: "Patriarch, what should I do?"
Ji Thief rolled up his sleeves: "What else can I do, pull the grass first." ”
As he spoke, the thief strode into the No. 2 cultivated land and stretched out his hand to pull out the weeds.
When everyone saw each other, they looked at each other and then all entered the farmland.
Under the rising sun, a group of people worked hard with their heads down, letting the sweat fall on the ground.
With Ji Thief taking the lead, the clansmen below didn't say anything even if they were a little tired, so they worked so hard.
The patriarch doesn't shout tired, what qualifications do you have to rest?
The Thunder Fire Boy stood outside the second place with a knife, and they didn't work, not because they were lazy.
They take it as their duty to protect the thief.,They have their own ideas.。
If everyone goes to plough the land, what if there is a danger? Do you want the people who have lost their physical strength to protect the patriarch?
It is precisely because of this that these twelve teenagers do not join the work.
But as long as there are other guards, they are definitely working harder than anyone else.
However, although they do not plough the land, when everyone is thirsty, they will also bring water to everyone, which is also a gesture.
The sun gradually shifted overhead, and the scorching sun was pouring down, and everyone was a little uncomfortable in the heat.
Many of the clansmen began to take off their heavy leather clothes and hand them over to their children for safekeeping, and began to cultivate lightly.
Suddenly, a clansman screamed and fell directly to the ground.
Around him, many people exclaimed, "There are snakes!"
The thief, who was busy pulling weeds, immediately looked up when he heard the sound, and at the same time threw off his steps and ran wildly.
Seeing this, Tushan also hurriedly withdrew his hand and took a few steps to catch up.
The two of them ran forward to the fallen clansman and pushed them away, and the thief knelt down on one knee in front of the clan and asked, "What's the matter?"
The fallen clansman pointed in one direction, and his voice trembled with a cry: "Snake, snake..."
The thief frowned, grabbed the leg of the tribe and opened the trouser leg to look, and saw that between the calf and ankle, there were four neat tooth marks.
Seeing this, the thief didn't say a word, leaned over and put his mouth on it, sucking the poisonous blood from the wound.
The injured clansman was frightened when he saw this, and at the same time he screamed in horror and pulled his legs back: "Clan, clan, patriarch, you, what are you doing, no, no." How can I make you..."
"Phew. The thief, who had just spit out a mouthful of poisonous blood, whispered: "Shut up, what's the way you can." ”
As he spoke, the thief put his mouth up again and sucked.
This went back and forth more than ten times, and when the blood that flowed out of the wound turned normal red, the thief breathed a sigh of relief, and with a bang, pulled out a copper dagger from his waist, cut off a linen liner from his body, and ripped it open, and tied it tightly to the leg of the tribe.
Immediately, Ji Thief turned his back and came over: "Come up, I'll carry you out." ”
The surrounding clansmen couldn't help but be a little moved when they saw this, but the poisoned clansman shook his head and didn't want the thief to carry him no matter what he said.
"Patriarch, we, we come, we come. A group of onlookers spoke.
With that, without giving the thief a chance to speak, they left the No. 2 cultivated field with the poisoned tribesmen on their backs and came to the temporary camp by the river.
The thief stood up with a copper dagger, looked around and said, "Tushan, order everyone to withdraw first." There are poisonous snakes in this field, and it is too dangerous to rush into it like this. ”
Tushan agreed, and hurriedly gave an order.
Watching the clansmen withdraw one by one, the thief who also withdrew to the edge of the ground narrowed his eyes, and said in his heart: "No wonder there are so many hares and rats in the second place than the first and third places, it turns out that there are poisonous snakes in this land, and I didn't find it last time, I think these snakes have just finished hibernation, and this time I happened to meet them." ”
Following the instructions of the thief, all the clansmen were withdrawn, and Tushan came over and asked the thief, "Patriarch, everyone has withdrawn, what should we do next?"
Ji thief put away the copper dagger: "The grass can't be pulled anymore, and the poisonous snakes in this field can't continue at all if they are not expelled." You don't want any more people to be bitten in the process of pulling weeds, do you?"
Tushan didn't speak silently, he was just afraid in his heart, but this time the poisonous snake bit an ordinary clansman, if the patriarch was bitten, then his own sin would be great.
Ji Thief said: "Let everyone turn the hoe upside down, beat the grass and startle the snake, and drive these things out." ”
Tushan nodded: "Yes, Patriarch." ”
So saying, Tushan went back and commanded.
The thief was the first to walk into the grass with a hoe and began to startle the snake.
