Chapter 874
Although the food is hearty, most of it is stewed offal, stir-fried vegetables and wild fruits, and in front of each male, there is only a piece of roast meat the size of a clay plate, which can be eaten in a few bites.
Compared to the meat on the table before, the food these days seems a little shabby.
"What have you found in the past few days of hunting?" Ye Qingxin looked around at everyone, lightly opened his red lips, and beckoned everyone to eat.
Unable to hunt any prey, the males were a little embarrassed to eat the food on the table.
"Let's eat first, and talk while eating!" Ye Qingxin sandwiched some offal stewed radish for Qi and persuaded him.
"Eat." Qi ate the food in his mouth, glanced at everyone, and said in a deep voice, "I only shot two prey today, and I couldn't find more big beasts." ”
Ah Du took a bite of the barbecue and said indignantly, "It's not! Those big beasts don't know where to go! There are a lot of gophers scurrying around in the forest, and Kai won't let us fight. ”
"I've never seen so many gophers, and there's a forest that's been destroyed by gophers, and they're burrowing and destroying all the trees and grass." Tuli muttered.
"The cave has also been hollowed out, I'm afraid I won't be able to beat the big beast in the future, what can I do?" Achai said depressedly.
"There are a lot of gophers in the forest?" Lu frowned and said, "I remember a clan elder said that when he was young, he also saw a lot of gophers once, and that time the males couldn't hunt their prey, and many clansmen starved to death. ”
"Isn't it?" Adu yelled, his eyes widening, "We are almost out of prey......
"Goddess, there are so many gophers, why can't you eat gophers?" Ah Chai asked vaguely as he ate his food.
This is a question he has never been able to understand, the people in the tribe have always had something to eat, since they can't hit big beasts, and the ground is full of gophers, so why can't they eat gophers?
Ye Qingxin put down his chopsticks and looked up at Qi.
Things have come to this point, and everyone should understand what is going on.
I didn't say it before, because I was afraid of causing panic among the clansmen.
Once people panic about food shortage, they will do many unexpected things, such as looting and hoarding.
Ye Qingxin's mother has not finished eating the salt she has hoarded yet, and she can probably eat it until she dies of old age.
"As you can see, there's a lot going on in the forest." Qi Huiyi looked at Ye Qingxin and said in a deep voice, "We won't be able to hunt prey for a long time in the future, because gophers bring diseases." ”
"What, what?" Adu looked at Kai in surprise.
"No wonder so many beasts died in the forest, they were sick and dead!" Tuli suddenly realized.
"Kai, goddess, the beast that died in the forest, is it a disease brought by a gopher?" Lu hurriedly asked.
"Gophers are so small that they can bite those beasts?" Ah Chai looked dazed.
"Gophers have brought the scourge of evil gods into the forest." Ah Shi looked at the goddess with heavy eyes:
"No wonder the goddess took us to the forest these days to collect plants, replace animal meat with plants, and be busy storing prey, it turns out that you have long known that the evil god will bring disaster to the forest!"
"Evil God...... The evil gods have sent woe! ”
"If there is no prey to fight in the future, what will happen to all the people who fall?"
......
Everyone stopped eating and talked nervously.
"Calm down! Not an evil god, do not be afraid. It was the gopher that carried a disease on its body and passed it on to other wild beasts in the forest before it died.
That's why I asked Qi to tell you that you can't fight small beasts, especially gophers, because you're afraid that gophers will spread the virus to you. ”
