As the oars move, the raft moves slowly on the water.

The little pea, who walked on the water on a raft for the first time, shook his head in Han Cheng's arms, and kept looking left and right, with a look of novelty.

But although it was novel, he was not afraid, because his father protected him in his arms.

There is a slight lake breeze blowing down the water, bringing a burst of coolness.

In the distance, on the surface of the lake, waterfowl flutter their wings, sometimes suddenly retract their wings, and shoot straight down like arrows from the string, splashing a splash, and when they fly again, fish will rise into the sky with them.

Not far away, mallards and rafts swam ahead of them, marveling at the monkeys that could swim in the water like them.

After swimming like this for a while, some of the mallards noticed some of the shortcomings of these monkeys, which was that they could only swim on the surface of the water, but could not burrow into the water.

So, one or two wild ducks began to burrow into the water and then come out of other places, and sometimes some fish tails appeared in their mouths.

Playing their own strengths, in front of this group of monkeys in the water, after showing off their skills, these two ducks flapped their wings on the water and called out excitedly.

Senior Brother Sha, who was riding on the same raft with Han Cheng, silently tied a rope that was not thick to the tail of a feather arrow, tied the other end of the rope to the railing at the edge of the raft, and then put this feather arrow on the bowstring, and after pulling it away, the handle was loosened, and the feather arrow with the rope flew out quickly.

The wild duck that was flapping its wings and screaming screamed, and then flapped its wings in the water and struggled a few times, and then there was no sound.

In the panic of the rest of the wild ducks, the wild duck that was pierced by the feather arrow was dragged to the raft by Senior Brother Sha with a rope.

Soon it will turn into a roasted duck.

This kind of thing tells everyone in the Qingque tribe a truth, not only the rafters that come out of the rain hit first, but also the wild ducks that like to show off their skills, and when they show off their skills, they are too close to the archers are also easy to become roast ducks......

As the raft progresses, a lake emerges from the cracks on the raft, forming small puddles that do not exceed the highest part of the raft, and occasionally an alarmed fish jumps up from the water and falls back into the water with a splash.

The raft slowly moved forward in the vast smoke and waves, and the novel experience of boating on the lake made everyone excited.

The only thing that makes it a pity is why the jumping fish don't land on the raft.

The raft travels all the way from the east side of the island to the north side, stopping at the first landing.

When it came to the shore, some people standing at the front of the raft threw down the cable, and those who had stayed on the island before picked up the cable and pulled it tightly, pulling the front end of the raft tightly against the shore.

Most of the people in the tribe had never seen such a large beach, and they were very happy when they got off the raft and stepped barefoot on the clean sand.

Looking at the blue sky, the sunshine, and the large area of the lake, and then looking at the clean, large sandy beach, Han Cheng suddenly felt that in the future, in addition to fishing and digging lotus root and bird droppings on this island, he could also build a few pavilions here, and put a few deck chairs made of bamboo.

Barefoot wearing big pants made of linen, when you are tired of walking by the water, you will lie down on the chaise longue, bask in the warm sun, squint in a nap, and wake up to see the clouds in the sky......

You can't think about it, just thinking about it makes people feel beautiful bubbling.

I can't wait to start implementing it now.

However, when Han Cheng's gaze fell on the beach farther away, after he and the others left, he climbed onto the beach again, and lay on the old turtle lying there lazily drying his back, his face suddenly twitched.

Why after seeing the state of these guys at this time, Han Chengcheng felt that the wonderful life he was drooling over just now was a bit like he was scolding himself.

These damn guys, sooner or later, will catch you one by one and make stewed soup to drink!

Unconsciously, Han Dashenzi, who scolded himself, looked at those old turtles who always liked to come to the beach to dry their backs when they had nothing to do, and his heart was full of anger.

The beach is always a place for children to play.

In particular, Han Cheng used a bowl to fill it with wet sand, gently patted the porcelain with his hand, and then buckled it upside down on the beach, gently removed the bowl, and left an upside-down bowl composed of wet sand in the same place, and the few children who came with him immediately stayed on the beach and didn't want to leave.

Not only them, but also some of the women who came with them were attracted to this novel activity.

Seeing this, Han Cheng thought about it and asked a few strong people who had been to the lotus pond and seen guano to stay nearby with weapons to protect them, while he and another group of people went to the west side of the island and the middle of the island with Wu and them to see the large lotus root, and the guano and struvite stones that were extremely important to the tribe.

For the witches, and most of the people in the tribe, the food that can be eaten, and what is of great use to the tribe, is far more important than having fun......

The lake breeze rose slightly, blowing thousands of blue lotuses, and between the branches and leaves, Wu smiled like a toothless child.

The rest of the people from the Qingque tribe who saw the lotus root for the first time also laughed very happily, especially after listening to Han Cheng talk about the deliciousness of the lotus root and the high yield.

"Seed to the tribe, plant to the tribe......"

Wu muttered there, and the rest of the people who heard it nodded their heads.

For the people of the Qingque tribe, they still subconsciously regard the main tribe of Qingque, which has lived for a long time, as a real tribe, and when they encounter good things, they always subconsciously want to get it to the main tribe.

Only in this way will you feel at ease, and you will feel that such a thing really belongs to your own tribe.

Han Cheng nodded on the side, this lotus root himself had plans to transplant it to the main tribe, after all, over the years, there were many potholes around the main tribe, and if the lotus root was planted, then it would be possible to dig a lot of lotus root in winter.

Not only the main tribe, but also along the entire Bronze Expressway, in the more suitable potholes, Han Chengdu plans to plant lotus roots, and there are suitable ones in the Tongshan residential area, and they will not let it go.

Anyway, now it is different from later generations, this era is vast and sparsely populated, there are enough people in the main tribes to be able to work hard, and large tracts of land can belong to their own tribes.

As for the fact that the lotus root with so much time would not be able to dig up, this was not in Han Cheng's consideration at all.

First, the lotus root that grows under the water can be excavated for a particularly long time, which can last from summer to winter, and secondly, even if it is really not excavated, it is very good to watch there.

After seeing this large lotus pond here, Han Cheng took them and made a special trip to see the forest covered with a thick layer of bird droppings and a somewhat big smell.

Then I went to the large amount of struvite on the east side of the forest leading to the southern tip of the island.

After seeing so many guano, the people in the tribe were all happy.

With so much guano in place, the grain in the tribe will increase the yield a lot.

After some visits, Wu's toothless mouth has never been closed, and the whole person is extremely spiritual.

Everyone returned to the lotus pond, went down and touched more than 100 catties of lotus root, and after cleaning it with the lake water, they returned to the beach with it.

Someone was looking for dry firewood and a few bonfires were set up on a beach.

A few stones were placed around the fire, on which were placed clay pots brought with the ship, and a simple stove was ready.

The newly touched lotus root has undoubtedly become the protagonist of this meal.

After peeling the skin, cut it into diced pieces that are about 4 centimeters long and about 1 centimeter thick, and put them in when the fresh fish soup and turtle soup in the jar are almost ready.

There is no slice of cold seasoning, because this time is after all, it is a camping outing, and the seasoning is not very sufficient, especially there is no vinegar, so the lotus root slices made in this way are not delicious.

When the bonfire was about to burn out, Han Cheng buried some lotus roots in the fire and burned them with dark red fire coals.

"Delicious! Delicious! ”

After some of the dark dishes of fresh fish lotus root soup and soft-shelled turtle lotus root soup came out of the pot, everyone picked up the lotus root from their respective bowls and sent it to their mouths.

The fully cooked lotus root is very noodle to eat, and when you bite into it, you will bring out a lot of white silk, which is very delicious.

Everyone in the Qingque tribe who ate lotus root for the first time was amazed while eating.

Especially the witch who is not very good at his teeth, eats more, because this lotus root is more and his appetite.

Han Cheng, who was eating lotus root, was also happy, because the quality of the lotus root here was better than he imagined, and it was actually a flour lotus.

"Taste this."

After eating up the rice in the bowl, Han Cheng opened the pile of coals that had been dimmed, revealing the burned blackened lotus root buried inside.

In addition, he broke off a relatively thin clean branch and pierced one of the lotus roots, which had already penetrated it without much effort, and the touch from his hands told Han Cheng that these lotus roots had been cooked.

Immediately, all the lotus roots buried in the ash heap were picked up.

After picking up a piece of it on the ground and gently throwing it down, Han Cheng handed it to Wu and motioned for Wu to peel off the outer layer of skin before eating.

Han Cheng himself also picked up a piece of lotus root that was a little hot and began to peel the roasted lotus root and eat it.

When using a fire to burn sweet potatoes, potatoes, taro, lotus roots, etc., it is best to open the pile of coals when the fire is about to stop.

Otherwise, if you put it too early, it is very likely that the burned things will be carbonized, and you will not be able to eat all or most of them.

But don't put it too late, if it's too late, it won't be cooked.

Han Cheng found a few thick green leaves and folded them together, wrapped the lower part of the lotus root that burned his hands, held it in his hand, and began to peel it from one end.

As the outer layer of burnt and somewhat hard skin was removed, some of the heat that had been sealed in it suddenly came out.

After uncovering the upper half of the skin, Han Cheng couldn't wait to try it on the side of his mouth, it tasted very good, and it was more floury than the cooked lotus root.

The little pea nodded anxiously on the side, opened her mouth, and kept calling her father.

However, Han Cheng still brought the lotus root in his hand to Bai Xuemei's side, and after Bai Xuemei ate two bites, he gave it to Little Pea.

The typical parent is true love.

The witch on the side, as well as some other people, also followed Han Cheng's example, picked the leaves of the big tree, wrapped the end of the roasted lotus root with leaves, and peeled it in his hand to eat.

While the food was almost as good as ever, the sun was gradually setting in the west, and from time to time a flock of birds would fly in from afar and set in the trees of the island.

The island, which originally seemed relatively quiet, suddenly became lively, and the sound of birds chirping.

At this point, it's time to get out of the island.

There were a lot of people who came to the island, so they went back in two trips as before.

Han Cheng did not leave in the first wave, but sat on the beach by the lake, looking at the lake in the distance, waiting for the second arrival of the raft.

After some waiting, the departing raft returned, and Han Cheng and the people who stayed on the island boarded the raft together, and under the continuous sliding of the oars, they left the island and passed away towards the shore.

When the raft came around the east side of the island, the last bit of light of the red sun on the horizon disappeared.

The western sky is filled with sunsets of different shades, reflecting the calm surface of the lake into the color of the sky, and looking down, it is a little difficult to tell whether it is on the water or in the air.

In the west, birds soar into the sky, fluttering their wings and flying, reflecting the sunset, which can only make people see the silhouette of a black shadow.

"The sunset and the lonely bird fly together, and the autumn water and the long sky are the same color."

Standing on the raft, looking at this situation, the famous sentences in Wang Bo's famous chapters that had already been sealed in his memory couldn't help but blurt out.

By the time Han Cheng and the others came ashore, the sunset had disappeared a lot, and the twilight gradually shrouded in.

Along with it is the coolness of the night.

At such a moment, everyone trampled on the weeds, dressed in twilight, and headed all the way towards the Dragon Gate Inn under construction.

About halfway through, it was already dark.

After walking about two miles further, the night completely fell, and in the dark blue night sky, there were stars shining, and the half moon also radiated brilliance, taking the place of the sun and continuing to illuminate those who returned late.

As far as the surroundings look, the scenery becomes even more vast.

The little pea was held in Han Cheng's arms, and the other minors who followed, the younger ones were also carried by other adults, and the older ones, together with Han Cheng and Wu Baixuemei, were surrounded by the tribal warriors holding the rattan shield and the rest of the weapons, walking towards the front.

The dogs who followed were on the periphery, walking on the periphery, and on guard......

Early the next morning, the 'tour group' of the Qingque tribe, which was protected by more than a dozen people with weapons led by Senior Brother Sha, left the Longmen Inn under construction and headed along the Bronze Highway towards the Tongshan residential area.

The bridge over this section of the road has not yet been built, and in some places donkey carts are impassable.

However, there is no need to worry about this, you can get around the side of the temporary place, and although the road is not smooth, it is not a problem to drive short distances.

It's like the broken bridges on the asphalt road between the prefectures, and when the traffic gets close to it, it needs to go down the dirt road to get around......

"Ao~!"

On the bare copper mountain, some people couldn't help shouting in the distance when they looked into the distance, and felt very happy in their hearts.

Bai Xuemei and some others squatted on the edge of the green or blue pools above the copper mountain, full of amazement, and couldn't help but touch the jewel-like water with their hands......

Under the copper mountain, Han Cheng, Wu, Sha Senior Brother, Yan and others began to walk slowly around the copper mountain residential area.

Go and see the stoves, go outside and measure the land around the Copper Mountain settlement with your feet.

Look at the large farmland around you, and the crops such as millet and soybeans growing in the farmland.

Along the way, Wu who came to the Tongshan residential area for the first time, the smile on his face never disappeared, and he was happy everywhere, happy as a little pea a few years old......

The sun is once again setting to the west, heralding the end of another day.

Climbing up to the stone wall of the Copper Mountain Settlement, looking at the Copper Mountain Settlement under the sunset, and the large farmland outside with crops, his face was full of childlike smiles.

Before he came here, he knew about the Copper Mountain Settlement, knew that there were furnaces for refining copper ingots and tin ingots, and knew that there was farmland around the Copper Mountain Settlement.

But these are just from others, and I haven't witnessed them with my own eyes.

Now that he has come to the Tongshan residential area in person, he has seen all this with his own eyes, and he has seen this thing that is much better than he imagined, and the happiness in his heart is really overflowing.

His eyes searched around, and finally landed on the courtyard on the green finch flag fluttering slightly in the evening breeze in the setting sun.

This house, everything around it, belongs to their tribe!

Before leaving the main tribe and embarking on this trip, Wu knew that his tribe was already very powerful, and now after walking along the bronze highway like this, Wu had a more intuitive understanding of the strength of his tribe.

In the sunset, Han Cheng, who was holding Xiao Xing'er's arm with both hands and letting his little girl walk for a while, handed over his daughter to Bai Xuemei who was on the side, and Han Cheng came to the wall along the steps.

When he came to Wu's side, he didn't speak, but quietly looked at the Tongshan residential area under the sunset like Wu.

"Beautiful, huh?"

After a long time, Han Cheng asked Wu with a smile.

"Beautiful!"

Wu nodded vigorously and replied in the affirmative.

"Our tribe will become more beautiful in the future! In another five years, ten years, stand on it and look at it, and then the surrounding scenery will be so beautiful that you can't bear to blink. ”

Han Cheng looked at Wu and said with a smile.

Wu nodded vigorously again, and he believed Shenzi's words.

From the beginning of the autumn of the first year of Qingque, when he and his senior brother and others brought the Divine Son back to the tribe from the wild, until now, it has only been nearly ten years.

In ten years, his tribe has developed from a small tribe of dozens of people to an unimaginable appearance.

In the past ten years, Wu can't imagine how far the tribe can develop, but one thing he is very sure of is that with the presence of the Son of God, another ten years will pass, and his tribe will definitely undergo amazing changes again.

The tribe is bound to get stronger and better.

You can't think about such a thing, as long as you think about it, Wu will be full of longing.

It's just that in this longing, there are still some faint worries.

I'm worried that when I'm old, I won't live to see this.

"Wu, live well! I still think that you will be like a little pea when the time comes, to hug the little pea child! When the time comes, let's go together in a car to inspect everything that belongs to our tribe. ”

Han Cheng looked at Wu and said seriously.

Wu's mood seemed to be very agitated, like coaxing a little pea, coaxing a little pea's child, of course he thought about such a thing, but he was afraid of it......

Speaking of which, he is still old, and in another two years, he should already be able to surpass Huo Er, who has lived the longest in the history of the Qingque Tribe, in this case, how can he not worry?

"Wu, don't worry, people can live for a long, long time, some people can live for more than a hundred years, you are still young!"

Han Cheng said to Wu with a smile.

Some people can indeed live to be more than 100 years old.

Although they account for a small proportion, their existence also shows that people can still live to be old.

In the country where Han Cheng lived in later generations, because there was no war, food, clothing, housing, transportation, and medical and health conditions had a great development, and the proportion of people over 100 years old was not large, but there were still many people in their seventies and eighties, and in their eighties and nineties.

Han Cheng said that Wu was young, and he didn't mean to laugh.

Because the previous life in the tribe was not good, many people in the tribe were much older than the common people in later generations just by looking at their appearance.

For example, Wu, who looks very old, according to Han Cheng's estimate, his real age is actually less than sixty years old in later generations.

People of this age, when they are still in the prime of life in the later generations, do their work, and many young people can't compare, how can they be old?

"Really? Can a person really live that long?"

Hearing Han Cheng's words, Wu suddenly became excited.

"Of course it's true, as long as you don't lack clothes and food, have good accommodation, don't be hurt by wild beasts and poisonous snakes, and don't get sick, people can live for many years, and you are not old at all."

Han Cheng said affirmatively to Wu.

After living together for so long, Han Cheng knew what Wu was most worried about.

And how much influence a person's psychological cues will have on a person, Han Cheng is also very clear.

So taking advantage of today's opportunity, Han Cheng said these words to Wu.

For Wu, Han Cheng hopes that he will live a long life, and he can accompany him more and accompany the tribe to go on more.

As the sun sets, the sunlight softens, and if you don't look at the direction of the sun, you can mistake it for early morning.

Wu under the sunset looked a lot younger at this time, and the whole person looked very energetic.

Even some hunchbacks have become a lot straighter at this time.

Looking at Wu in this state, Han Cheng smiled heartily......
