Chapter 136: The Curtain Sweeps the Earth
After the elimination of the previous winter, the population of the village has decreased dramatically. Now the whole village is full of about 30 households, one piece of pottery per family, and there are more than 20 pieces left.
It's just that some people have only one person in the family, and they don't contribute much when they burn pottery, so they are a little embarrassed when they hold pottery.
Lin Qingqing and Ling went home early, and after a short rest, they went to the mountain. There are also sacrifices and revelries in the evening, and their family naturally has to sacrifice their prey. Originally, Ling didn't plan to take Lin Qingqing up the mountain, but now that it's spring, the weather is still a little cold. Lin Qingqing is weaker than others, what if she freezes and hurts?
However, Lin Qingqing naturally has her own way, obsessing her own man for a long time and being coquettish, Ling will have no choice. What's more, what Qingqing said also has some truth, sports are the source of life. Also, he'll protect her.
Lin Qingqing was thinking about going up the mountain, thinking that now that everything has recovered, she will go around the mountain more, maybe she will be able to discover new species. You must know that when she was a child, she was also a child who followed adults to work in the mountains, and she naturally knew what crops looked like.
As she walked, Lin Qingqing suddenly remembered something, pulled Ling's sleeve, and said, "Husband, do we still have land?" β
Ling glanced back at her and chuckled, "As long as the land in the village is not planted, you can toss it." "There is no land policy in this primitive continent, as long as you want to plant the land all over the world, you can open up the land by yourself. However, the original owner was a good hunter, and he didn't farm much in previous years. If you want rice paste, you take the prey and the older ones in the village. You can't hunt and just rely on the exchange of people who farm for a living.
"What, you're going to plant something?" Gently rubbing Lin Qingqing's slightly cool face, Ling said with a smile, "How did I not know that my daughter-in-law would still farm?" β
Lin Qingqing slapped his hand away and snorted, "You don't know much more." After a pause, he said seriously, "Husband, didn't I think you dug up a few big pumpkins last year and came back, that thing is highly nutritious and easy to feed." You and I don't know how to plant, though. But a variety of piers always grow, right? β
Ling nodded approvingly. "Yes, a good idea. The pumpkin pork rib soup is quite delicious. After crossing over, the last thing he was used to was the recipes here. In addition to meat meat, it is still meat meat. I want to change the taste. There is no way.
Speaking of which. Ling was also interested. "Wife. Do you have any other plans? Can we grow something else, too? Although the time for spring planting has passed, it is not too late for us to plant something else. How about corn? β
Yes?
Lin Qingqing looked at Ling in surprise and blurted out, "Do you want to drink rice cereal?" That's the cub's ration. Watching Ling's face change color. Lin Qingqing also reacted, stepped forward and patted his chest and comforted, "Don't be angry, don't be angry, husband, even if you want to drink rice paste, I won't laugh at you." "It's a big deal, she's on top of the black cauldron. Make sure no one else laughs at your man!
Ling sighed helplessly, there was really no way to put a woman like Lin Qingqing on the stall. No matter what she says, she always has the ability to crook the building! However, as a person who grew up with rice and noodles as a staple food, is it wrong for him to grow some corn to improve his diet?
Sacrifice is a major event in the village, and in previous years, when there were no accidents, the village would only sacrifice once a year, and that was the time of the autumn harvest. Lin Qingqing didn't catch up, and she didn't find that there was a priest in the village, so when she heard about the sacrifice today, she was quite surprised.
After asking Ling, she learned that Mu was still the priest of the village. However, because he is not a professional, everyone usually treats him as a doctor, and the priesthood on the second floor is not remembered by many people.
Before the couple was about to go out, several groups of people came to the house one after another. There are men and women, old and young. These people all have one thing in common, that is, they are the only ones in the family.
When they came, they were covered with hides. Lin Qingqing looked at them curiously, thinking, women are just women, how can men still have big bellies?
But when they pulled out the large and small pottery from the hides, it dawned on her. When the visitor carefully put the pottery on the table and said with a worried face that she only had one at home, so she didn't need to waste the pottery, and her heart was a little sour.
Waving his hand at a few people, Lin Qingqing said: "These pottery are burned by our village itself, so naturally everyone should have them." Besides, I also said that if the pottery flows out too much, it will not be precious. So, you all have to take it. β
After hearing what Lin Qingqing said, a man shook his head, stretched out his hand and pushed the pottery on the table to Lin Qingqing, and said, "Wise man, when the Tao clan passed by our village two years ago, I had already replaced a pottery pot. There is only one person in the family, and it is enough. Besides, even if there can't be too much pottery at this fair, there will be a next time. It's the same next time you exchange these pottery for something. β
Lin Qingqing looked at the man's serious and firm eyes, and suddenly chuckled: "You don't think that you won't burn pottery in the future, right?" β
The man raised his head, looked at Lin Qingqing in dismay, and said loudly, "What, what do you mean?" Her breathing was rapid and rough, and she stared at Lin Qingqing nervously, for fear of missing every word she said.
Lin Qingqing glanced around at a few people, all of them looked nervous, and there were big words on their faces, "I have little knowledge, don't lie to me". In this way, she accepted the thoughts of teasing a few people, and said seriously: "It means that I will continue to burn pottery in the future." In the future, there will be no shortage of this thing in our village. β
"Ke, coco......" The man was nervous, his tongue was knotted, and it was finally straightened. Taking a deep breath, he looked at Lin Qingqing fixedly and asked, "But isn't there no clay in our village?" The clay used this time is stillγIt's still ...... "stolen!"
However, he was afraid that Lin Qingqing would dislike their village, so the man lowered his head and didn't dare to say those words. Naturally, he missed the smile in Lin Qingqing's eyes.
"So, this clay has to be found by everyone." After comforting and motivating a few people, he sent them away. Lin Qingqing was a little tired and nested on the wooden pier and didn't want to get up.
If she wasn't afraid that saying too much would ruin her impression in the eyes of everyone, she would have wanted to say directly, it doesn't matter if there is no clay, we can steal it! Everything is ownerless, and no one says that those things belong to the Tao people. It's just that because they can burn pottery, other tribes can't, so it's useless to everyone, and no one is rare.
But now that they also have the technology to burn pottery, why can't they discuss the distribution of clay ore with the Tao people?
After the sacrifice, it was a revelry.
Eat meat. Gulp down the soup. Dancing, singing, laughter and laughter all the time. Lin Qingqing sat in front of his campfire, eating the barbecue made by Ling while enjoying the song and dance in front of him. At night. Listen to the singing of the original atmosphere. and Ling snuggled together. She suddenly felt that her heart was very stable.
Holding Ling's thick and sturdy arms and rubbing them against her face, she whispered. "Husband, it's actually pretty good."
Ling looked back at her, his eyes full of love, leaned over, picked her chin, and whispered, "Well, I've always felt good with you." β
Lin Qingqing blushed shyly, slowly closed her eyes, and her fiery lips and tongue were quickly entangled.
Under the night sky, people's sense of hearing tends to be much more sensitive than usual. Lin Qingqing is a person with keen five senses, and in this case, he naturally has a few more advantages than others. Yes, the sound of the bushes behind her naturally couldn't hide from her ears.
Reaching out in a panic to push his man away, Lin Qingqing looked back sharply, Emma, what about the constantly shaking bushes and the increasingly excited and high-pitched voice, dear, shame and discipline?
Straightened her body, Ling looked at her girl with a smile, and laughed: "What, daughter-in-law, are you envious?" After a pause, he said, "If you weren't in good health and couldn't help the cold, I would also let you enjoy the fun of using the sky as the furnace!" β
Lin Qingqing stared at Ling's eyes tightly, not seeing any joke at all. She couldn't help but push him in shame and said, "Phew! You scoundrel, don't think about it in this life! After speaking, he didn't look at Ling's face, he stood up and walked home.
Seeing this, Ling said hello to the people around him, and pushed all the barbecue on his side to them, so he followed behind Lin Qingqing unhurriedly.
Lin Qingqing didn't take two steps, and he regretted it a little!
Everywhere you go, there is a sound of uh-huh! Also, what about those people who don't even drill into the bushes, but just snap in the moonlight?
Woo woo, let her see that her face was red and her ears were red, and her steps were light, for fear that the movement would be big and disturb people's interest.
At the end, there were three corpses behind the campfire in front of me, uh, no, bodies. The three of them overlapped up and down, crackling, and the battle was fierce. Lin Qingqing only glanced at it, and then froze in place and didn't dare to look at it.
With her eyes closed, Lin Qingqing was almost about to cry!
Although she is not a little girl who is as white as paper and has never tasted meat, it is the first time she has seen such a fierce live version! It really feels like you'll have a needle's eye!
Just when Lin Qingqing kept complaining, a fiery body leaned over behind him. She was startled, and she opened her mouth to shout. But then his mouth was covered! Behind her, a hard erection poked directly into her buttocks.
My mind went blank for a second, and tears flowed out. Unable to take care of the wild mandarin duck in front of him anymore, Lin Qingqing broke free from the man's restraints, crying and punching and kicking the man.
"Woooooooooo......oo How can you scare me so much? How dare you, how dare you scare me? β¦β¦ Woowoo...... Woowoo woo ......"
The woman's shrill cry was particularly clear in the night, and the people next to her all raised their heads to check the situation.
"Yo, Ling, what's going on?" A man kept moving, and asked in the middle of nowhere.
"It's nothing, it's a little grumpy." Ling couldn't help Lin Qingqing pick up the person horizontally, and said to everyone, "Okay, you guys are busy, I'll go home first." His daughter-in-law's reaction was so big, Ling also felt that he had gone too far.
The "busy" crowd let out a "I understand" laugh, and then lowered their heads and struggled again.
Over there, Lin Qingqing was "frightened" and had always been reluctant to deal with Ling.
Soon, it was time to leave for the fair.
Ling packed up his things, took out another freshly made back chair, and just wanted to say something to Lin Qingqing, the person turned his head.
Sighing slightly, he hugged the person tightly and apologized: "Wife, it's me who is bad, it's me who is wrong, it's me who is confused by lard." I shouldn't have scared you like that, and I won't do it again. You've been ignoring me for the past few days, and I'm so uncomfortable! Stretching out his finger and pointing at his back, he said pitifully, "Look, I slept in the cold ground for a few days, and my back hurt!" β
After being entangled by Ling for a long time, Lin Qingqing's face eased in the end, and the unhappiness in his heart burned a lot.
She looked at Ling and said hatefully, "If you commit it again, it's not as simple as punishing you to sleep on the floor!" β
Although the two of them sometimes play some character cosplay games, they are just joking and not serious. But that night, in that situation, Ling suddenly came over, and his body reacted like that, Lin Qingqing couldn't stand this fright no matter how bold he was.
Fortunately, she recognized Ling in time, otherwise she wouldn't know what to do!
Ling immediately nodded sternly, promising not to make any more mistakes.
The fair is held in the Sea Tribe, the big head is the exchange of salt between the inland tribes and the Sea tribe, and the small head is the exchange of special products between the tribes. As a wise man, Lin Qingqing could not leave the village lightly.
But she was alone in the village, and Ling was not at ease. Again, Lin Qingqing was still thinking about going to the trade fair to see if there were any familiar species.
Cotton, corn, wheat, green onions, ginger, garlic, and chili peppers are all things that Lin Qingqing has been talking about for a long time.
After telling several important people in the village about their intentions, everyone nodded in agreement. The wise man is a more knowledgeable person, and with her, he can replace it with good things.
Even if they have gold and jade in front of them, they don't necessarily know each other.
The distance between the sea tribe and the village is not far, and it takes three days and three nights for the men to march on foot. But now in the team, in addition to Lin Qingqing, there are several women. In this way, it will be a long time to stop and recuperate.
However, although Lin Qingqing was weak, he didn't hold back much.
Ling prepared a back chair, and wanted to carry his daughter-in-law and son on his back at any time. Hmm, okay, Lin Qingqing was ashamed, so he didn't go up at all. But don't worry, there's a cart in the line. The materials that everyone prepared for replacement are all on the board truck. Otherwise, you won't be able to hold much with the back basket alone.
So Lin Qingqing, who couldn't keep up with the progress of the team after walking for a long time, sat on the board car very honorably under the envious gaze of other women. (To be continued......)
