Chapter 233: Vulture
First of all, there is a big problem, how to solve the problem of meat? He needs eight meals a day, and he doesn't have any meat. Pen? Interesting? Pavilion wWw. biquge。 info
There is also firewood, there is no way to take local materials, and the weather is hotter, the temperature is higher than that in the mountains and forests, so his skin that has finally turned white has to be tanned again.
The change of the environment will inevitably bring a series of problems, and the water and soil will not be so exaggerated.
Having said that, if you want to graze and farm here, you have to have a safe base, they are pioneers, and they should endure hardship.
It's just that as soon as they put things into the cave, the soldiers talked a lot, saying that the house was still comfortable to live in, and they looked down on the cave.
Who is this native primitive, if he comes, he will be safe, at least he feels that the inside of the cave is cooler than the outside. After settling down, they let everyone cook something to eat, and at the same time held a meeting with the elders and the Prabhu.
"Shanrun, why didn't you choose that mountain in the first place?" Personally, he thinks that the vegetation is more abundant there, and it is also the largest mountain in the vicinity.
"It can't be done over there, there is no way up the mountain, only the monkeys can go up."
After thinking about it, he asked again: "You are so impulsive to relocate here, you haven't thought about eating, can you eat fruit all the time?" ”
"Of course not, there are a lot of wild boars, deer, rabbits, and cows here, so you have to be careful when hunting to get closer."
In the Q&A, he learned more about the place and strengthened his confidence.
"I'll make arrangements, after eating, you and Xia Bu will take people to survey the surroundings, and the mountains over there will also be a look. Dakang, you take a group of people out hunting, and come back by the way to collect some firewood. The rest of us will start building the wall, and I'll show you how to get it, so let's do it for now. ”
After the meal, they took action, Zhu Rong took the boy scouts to patrol the surroundings, and there would also be people on the top of the round mountain to keep an eye on them, so as to prevent the Xiyi people from suddenly appearing and catching them off guard.
Su Yang had a hunch that since the Xiyi people would come to rob every autumn, most of them would follow the previous route, then they would definitely come here, and the day of war was not far off. And he didn't have much time, and he was still a little short of manpower, so he knew that he should be tougher and bring the people of the Fire Tribe over.
It's not too late to make amends, and things haven't jumped out of his expectations. Adapt measures to local conditions, use local materials, change the fence compared with before, and build houses, all of which cannot copy the previous experience.
Now you don't have to repair the house, it's good to live in a cave, as long as there is a fence to ensure safety. He first checked the surrounding soil, and it was ready to be used.
The water of the river is relatively clear, it is completely fine as drinking water, and there are more stones and stones that can be seen, so he asked everyone to look for stones, dig a pit and bury it in the ground, it is enough to have chopsticks as deep.
Both large and small stones can be used, which is equivalent to a foundation, which can be protected from moisture and reinforced. Now that the technology of pottery making is becoming more and more mature, the number of people who can make pottery has also risen, and he can solve the threat of the Xiyi people, and he wants to try to burn a batch of lime out.
Mix lime with sand to get lime mortar, and then it will be much more convenient to build walls and mop the floor, and to a certain extent, lime mortar is more effective than cement. For example, cement floors are easy to get wet, but you don't have to worry about using lime. At the same time, you can also make some lime jars to store items that need to be dried.
Thinking about this for too long, he estimated that it was not so easy to burn lime with wood, and besides, limestone had not yet been found. But as long as the lime is burned, it can lay a good foundation for smelting metal, and these aspects are only theories.
"Look at it, pour water into the ground in a clay pot, stir the soil into mud, and then carry it over and build a wall."
This method is a bit of a cut corners, the soil will be mixed with stones, the speed of building the wall is very fast, if it is used to live in people, he doesn't dare anyway, he is afraid that it will suddenly collapse, but it is only used as a wall, it is still possible.
However, in order to avoid the occurrence of the tofu slag project in the primitive period, he specially made a kind of wooden mallet to beat the wall, and also made a fengzig-shaped wall cover to cover the rain.
It is enough for the wall to be about two meters high, and it is expected that the pit dug out of the wall will be more than one meter deep, so that the total is three meters high, and if the Xiyi people dare to climb over the wall, maybe the wall will collapse and kill the Xiyi people, which is also a tactic.
It's only about an hour, and a wall more than ten meters long and half a meter high has been built, which is simply fast. It is equivalent to adding water to the soil next to the wall and moving it to the wall, a porter of nature.
Hurriedly let people beat it with a wooden mallet, and finally supported it with a wooden stick on the inner wall. At this pace, the wall will be properly completed within a week, and then it will be repaired slowly.
After a while, the people who went out came back one after another, and Dakang carried firewood on their backs and carried two wild boars, and the harvest was very good, so they went out for a long time.
"Sue, there's a lot of prey down the river." Dakang said excitedly. He didn't have hope here, but he didn't expect it to be so easy to hunt here, with a wide field of vision, as long as he found his prey and could catch up, he wouldn't go home empty-handed.
"That's good!" When Su Yang saw the pork, he finally smiled. As long as there is meat to eat, you can stick to it wherever you go,
Coincidentally, Xia Bu also came back with people, carrying seven or eight rabbits, saying that there were many rabbit holes in this area, and they just caught them by the way, and there was a harvest.
Su Yang was full of emotion, is this really a paradise? Where a person comes, he doesn't want to leave, and then he can't leave? But the Maoxiyi people don't live here, and they can be completely self-sufficient. There must be demons when things are abnormal, so it's better to be careful!
"Quack."
Suddenly there was a strange cry in the sky, and everyone instinctively looked up at the sky, only to see a large group of black and oppressive birds of prey appear, a little overwhelming, flying overhead, blocking the sunset.
"It's a vulture-like bird." He recognized it at a glance, he had seen it before.
The appearance of vultures means that there are corpses in front of them, but such a large group of vultures flying over, I'm afraid there is a lot of carrion, is it a big thing?
"Dakang, you take someone to guard here, and if Chun comes back, let him stay in the tribe as well. Prabhu, come with me. ”
He brought out one hundred and eighty warriors, thirty archers, twenty junglers, thirty convoys, fifty spears, and fifty axes and shields. There were thirty boy scouts, and the rest were old men who were in charge of cooking, handymen who weaved and polished weapons, and auxiliary workers who made pottery and could plant and breed.
But they are all adults, which means that they can participate in the battle if necessary, and the number has reached three hundred, even if they can't fight, it is still no problem to escape, and they can rest assured in safety.
Su Yang led people to run with the vultures in the sky, not to snatch the carrion, but to see what was happening, and at the same time to understand what animals existed in this area.
Of course, they can't outrun the vultures, the speed is several times worse, and they are running, he looked back to see how many people were behind him, but he didn't think that he suddenly saw the big lion, damn it, what is the situation! (To be continued.) )
