Mountains and rivers Chapter 76 Farming
In the middle of the night, everything was silent, except for the old patriarch who came to send food during the period and confessed to Yang Tingfeng, Yang Tingfeng had been reading books at other times.
It wasn't until the sky was dark that Yang Tingfeng understood the gist of a few books, and he also understood a lot about the world, and he had a little more confidence in his heart.
According to the knowledge that Yang Tingfeng obtained from the book, this continent has been developed for thousands of years, and there are almost no natural enemies except for some wild beasts.
Most of the people here are ordinary people, and the highest realm is only the realm of the high priest, which is the three realms called on the top of the mountain, and there are only three realms here, the priest, the small priest, and the high priest.
And all those who can become sacrifices are to the point that ordinary people look up to, and even many mortals call cultivators the descendants of the gods.
The food here is beyond Yang Tingfeng's expectations, no one here will grow food at all, they can only rely on hunting to make a living, and there are edible weeds and wild fruits, it is said that in ancient times, there were many people who died because of eating grass indiscriminately, and even now there are many people who eat poisonous weeds and eat themselves to death.
Yang Tingfeng was speechless, the fabric industry here is not backward, it can even be said to be developed, and the construction and the like are still alive, why does no one care about what is eaten? Yang Tingfeng doesn't know.
Yang Tingfeng really doesn't understand this continent, why are some technologies very developed, while some technologies are extremely backward, and even have a feeling of barbarians, why is there such a big difference?
These Yang Tingfeng just went through it in his mind, and he didn't care, he just wanted to rule the world, and then end this so-called breakthrough and return to the top of the mountain.
However, since it is the vast majority of mortals, Yang Tingfeng is also relieved, not to mention that it is very easy, at least it is not very difficult, of course, this is just Yang Tingfeng's personal opinion.
Yang Tingfeng walked out of the tent and looked at the white belly of the fish in the sky, a trace of melancholy flashed on his face, how long has it been now? Yang Tingfeng didn't know that since he had experienced that time in the dark, Yang Tingfeng had now completely lost his sense of time.
The watch in his hand still didn't walk, all the jade slips were still in a dim state, and he didn't seem to have anything else to use except for the Xuankong Ring, and the Cangliu Gun still couldn't sense it, and there was only a cloud of Xuanqi and three bronze doors in the dantian.
The entire Tiexing tribe is only more than 1,000 people, and this still includes all the old and weak women and children, if you only count the young people who can march and fight, I am afraid that there are only about 200 people, and most of them only have a few layers of mystic power, and they have not even reached a single mystery.
Yang Tingfeng returned to the tent, took out some pen and ink from the Xuankong ring, and drew some pictures on rice paper, there were grass and fruit trees, and he drew more than a dozen, he walked out of the tent and saw children playing with mud not far away.
"Come here. Yang Tingfeng shouted at the child.
The child ran to Yang Tingfeng, his dirty clothes and face covered with dirt, and he gave Yang Tingfeng a salute like an adult, and said nervously: "Lord Shenzi, is there something wrong with you?"
Yang Tingfeng touched the child's head, took out a maltose and handed it to the child, and chuckled: "You go to the old patriarch and say that I have something to order." "Because Han Yang loves to eat this, Yang Tingfeng's Xuankong Ring also has some in it.
The kid nodded. "What is this?"
Yang Tingfeng took the maltose, opened the paper wrapped outside, and said to the child, "Ah..."
The child understood what Yang Tingfeng meant, opened his mouth, and Yang Tingfeng put the maltose in his hand into the child's mouth, "Go." ”
The child smacked his lips, felt the sweetness in his mouth, and his little face suddenly turned up with joy, and then said hello to Yang Tingfeng, and happily ran to find the old patriarch.
After a while, the old man hurriedly came over, looking at the disordered clothes on his body, I am afraid that he had just woken up, followed by the child.
The old man walked up to Yang Tingfeng, bowed down and said, "Son of God." ”
Yang Tingfeng handed a pile of rice paper in his hand to the old man and said, "Have you seen these plants?"
The old man took the rice paper and carefully identified it, "Some have seen it, and some have not." ”
Yang Tingfeng nodded, "Okay, you go and ask all of you who can work here to come out, I have something to say." ”
"Tiewa'er, you go and tell your father to get up, and ask him to call all the young men of the tribe to come over. ”
The child nodded and was about to turn around and run, but stopped at Yang Tingfeng's "Wait".
Yang Tingfeng walked in front of the child and squatted down, looked at the child's right hand that had been clenched, and stretched out his palm.
The child was a little overwhelmed, but he still handed the thing in his hand to Yang Tingfeng, it was a small note, which seemed to be wrapped with something.
Yang Tingfeng opened the small note, which was the maltose that the child had held in his mouth before, and there was a trace of saliva on it.
"Why don't you eat it?" Yang Tingfeng asked.
The child replied a little nervously: "This... It's delicious, and I want to keep it for my sister. The child was very nervous, and his little hands with nowhere to put were rubbing the corners of his clothes, for fear that Yang Tingfeng would blame him.
Yang Tingfeng was stunned for a moment, feeling a little uncomfortable in his heart, regardless of the sticky hand of saliva, Yang Tingfeng picked up the maltose and put it into the little man's mouth, and then another maltose appeared in his hand and handed it to the child, "Take it, give this one to my sister to eat." ”
The child didn't take it immediately, but looked at the old man on the side.
The old man was a little relieved in his eyes, and said, "Since it is a reward from Lord Mizu, then take it." ”
The child took the maltose, bowed down and said, "Thank you, Lord Miko, for the reward." As he spoke, he turned around and ran with joy, perhaps to deliver candy first, or to call his father first.
Yang Tingfeng stood up, looked at the child's back farther and farther away, and said, "He is very sensible." "It's like talking to someone, and it's like talking to yourself.
The old man didn't know how to answer for a while, but his wrinkled face raised a touch of glory, and Miko praised us.
With the arrival of young and strong people one after another, this small open space was soon filled with figures, as well as the two brothers and sisters who were eating candy behind the figures.
Yang Tingfeng suddenly thought of a question, as if he didn't have a hoe, and looked back at the old man: "Do you have the tools to plow the ground?"
The old man was stunned for a moment, not knowing what Lord Miko wanted to do with this, but he still replied, "Yes, every family has it." ”
Yang Tingfeng turned around and said to the crowd: "You go back and bring the tools for digging soil at home." ”
These young men and women were very puzzled, they thought that Miko-sama was going to officially take them to the expedition, but they quickly turned around and went back to get it, but their interest was obviously not as high as before.
Yang Tingfeng pointed to the rice paper in the old man's hand and said, "Later, you can ask a few people to dig up some of this plant and come back, dig as much as you can, as much as you want." ”
The old man replied, "Yes, Miko-sama, is there any important use for these things?"
"These things fill your stomach. Yang Ting didn't reply.
“em... I know this, is it just to gather so many people just for a lunch?" the old man asked cautiously, feeling a little disrespectful, and he wanted to change his words, but Yang Tingfeng had already answered his question.
"You used to pick a basket of plants, but it was only enough for a few people to eat, but now, if you pick a basket, I can make your whole tribe eat for ten days. ”
The old man's cloudy eyes were very surprised, and he wanted to ask why, but he remembered his disrespect just now, so he still kept his mouth shut, and sooner or later he would know.
As the crowd came back one after another, Yang Tingfeng stepped forward to take the iron tools in their hands and looked at it, the shape below was quite like a hoe, but it was a little narrow and inefficient, but it was better than nothing.
The old man selected a few people, and scattered the rice paper, telling them to carry the basket on their backs.
"Do you know how to grow food?" Yang Tingfeng shouted at the crowd.
The crowd shook their heads, growing food? I've never heard of this word, and we still know each other when we are separated, but it's a little strange when we are together.
Well, as expected, Yang Tingfeng continued: "Then have you ever thought about transplanting some edible fruit trees here, and when you reach a certain number, will you be able to survive on fruits alone?"
A big man in the crowd said, "Report to Lord Miko, I have done what you said. ”
"Oh? "This person is the leading man who went to pick up Yang Tingfeng yesterday.
Seeing Dahan walk out, Yang Tingfeng continued to ask, "How did you do it?"
The big man bowed before he spoke: "Report to Lord Shenzi, a few years ago, because my family's iron baby loved a kind of fruit, I wanted to move that tree to the tribe without having to walk a long way to pick it every time, but I died soon after moving back. Everyone has done these things more or less, but they are all dead, so they don't continue. ”
Yang Tingfeng doesn't have to think about it to know that these people must be brought back and buried in the soil, so there are ghosts if they can live.
Yang Tingfeng said to the crowd: "Today I will teach you how to grow food, that is, how to transplant plants without dying, these things are learned well, at least you will not go hungry for the rest of your life." In addition, if we want to unify the world, how can we unify without food? Go to war hungry?"
Listening to Yang Tingfeng's words, the old patriarch's face was full of excitement, "Lord Shenzi really has a way?"
Seeing Yang Tingfeng nodded, the crowd immediately cheered, if it really succeeded, then the Tiexing tribe would no longer have to go out hunting, and they would not pay a lot of their clansmen's lives for food every year.
"Please also ask Miko-sama to instruct, what should we do?" the big man knelt down with an excited face.
"Please also ask Miko-sama to instruct!" the crowd fell to their knees.
Yang Tingfeng waved his hand and said, "Follow me." ”
After saying that, he walked towards the open space on the other side of the tent, "Here, and here." Yang Tingfeng picked up a few branches and enclosed a large piece of land.
Then he said: "The young man will dig with the tools in your hands and turn over all the places in my circle, and then the women, children, and children will smash the soil that has been turned over, and throw all the weeds inside, and be careful to dig out the roots of the weeds and throw them away." ”
"Yes. ”
Seeing that the crowd began to get busy, Yang Tingfeng pulled the old man aside and asked, "What do you do when you go to the toilet?"
"What toilet?" the old man looked puzzled.
"It's excretion. ”
The old man suddenly realized: "It's all in the grass outside, or on the mountain." ”
Yang Tingfeng said to the old man: "You find three men, come with me." ”
Yang Tingfeng walked not far from the tribe, and there happened to be a small depression here, which was very much in line with Yang Tingfeng's request.
Looking at the three men who were already in place behind him, Yang Tingfeng commanded: "Dig here, dig a little deeper, and throw all the dirt outside." ”
Although they were puzzled, the three men still started digging where Yang Tingfeng pointed out according to what Yang Tingfeng said.
