Section 48 Tubers
The warm spring has been coming for more than a month. According to Tianxiang's request, none of the hunters walked out of the gate of the base. They honestly stayed there, waiting for the dangerous moment to pass. Although, such a wait is somewhat boring and monotonous.
A man who is with a woman will never be lonely. In the same way, a woman who is loved by a man will naturally not feel lonely. After more than a month of waiting, it has completely become the best period for men and women to have emotional intercourse. ** has also become the only pastime for the clansmen in addition to learning and training. Of course, this can only happen if both men and women are willing to do so. The kind of way that was once common in the dark world, where violence coercs others to accept, is absolutely forbidden here.
After all, a man rapes a woman, or a woman rapes a man. I'm afraid no one wants to take the initiative to accept this kind of thing. Despite the fact that there are more men than women, a large number of men in the Ko tribe are still quite satisfied with the current situation. After all, compared to other ethnic groups, the number of women here is already quite impressive. Moreover, the patriarch's order for the free pursuit of freedom can allow him to perfectly show the advantages of his body in front of women. Think about it, show your mighty muscles, strong strength, and intelligent mind, make a woman's heart move, make her crazy, make her automatically take off her clothes and lie in front of her and do whatever she wants...... Sky! What a wonderful thing!
The fact that there are more men and fewer women creates competition, which leads to an improvement in the overall quality of the ethnic group. This is the primary purpose that Tianxiang prioritized when he first came up with the idea of rescuing the Liuyun woman. Obviously, his purpose has been achieved. Early under the almost explicit performance of many men. The women seemed a little overwhelmed by all of this at first. can only accept the intimate caresses of one man after another blankly. However, this situation did not last long. People have brains and can judge, and women have gradually learned to choose the man they like from many suitors. Soon, more than 100 women had a favorite object. A basic stereotyped relationship seems to have been established in this way within the ethnic group.
But this is far from the truth. When the successful person hugs the woman tenderly, the loser is also secretly accumulating strength. It is not impossible to turn defeat into victory, as long as you can get the favor of a woman, you will have the same chance. Thus, when the first challenger took the woman from the hands of the vanquished, a new system of competition quietly gained a foothold in the group.
"You can be jealous. You can be dissatisfied, and you can even challenge your opponent several times in a row. However, it is absolutely not permissible to use underhanded means to achieve one's own ends. It's a man, so he stands up and uses his own strength to obtain physiology. The only fate for those who stab them in the back is to be expelled from the group forever. "This is the rule set by Tianxiang for the competition of the clansmen. It is also the rules of the game that he has formulated, which are absolutely beneficial to himself. The admiration for women is used to instill a reasonable concept of competition in the clan, so as to achieve the ultimate goal of enhancing the overall quality of the clan. This is the same as when a few pairs of simple locust leather shoes were prized. Encouraging people to train means exactly the same.
It should be admitted. Under the stimulation of a woman. Such a goal has been achieved. It didn't even go far beyond Tianxiang's expectations. Because women suddenly discovered that a man's attractiveness is not just expressed by a strong body. Sometimes, smart wisdom can better reflect a person's ability. The competition is still between every man. The women who were happy to watch all this suddenly felt that their bodies had quietly undergone some inexplicable changes. This change is actually an inevitable law. Merely. They were so immersed in happiness that they didn't realize it.
Pregnant.
From the first time a woman who vomits frequently and doesn't like to be greasy appears, women have also noticed changes in their bodies. If this kind of thing is before the change, it is definitely a man who is happy and a woman is worried. I was happy because I was able to have more tender meat to eat.
It is because it means that the woman after childbirth will become a burden, and her fate can only be to become food for men.
However. Now the situation is quite the opposite.
From the moment he discovered that the first woman was pregnant, Tianxiang immediately announced a new family rule: "It is forbidden to abandon or harm a woman after childbirth." Such a family rule makes all women feel at ease, and it also makes all men's hearts feel uneasy.
Because, until now, they have not been able to figure out who is the real father of these unborn money.
You know, almost all women have been possessed by more than one man. To be precise, it should be the woman who accepts the man's physiological requirements for herself. Therefore, even they themselves do not know who the father of the unborn child in the womb will be......
"This is the result of not agreeing to the concept of marriage."
Of course, this is the opinion and opinion of the ancients. In a situation where even basic food is difficult to guarantee, it is obviously impossible for a woman to start from the beginning. Moreover, the laws of survival in the dark world themselves limit the emergence of monogamy. It's just that Tianxiang himself didn't realize this at first.
Fortunately, many men are only embarrassed by this, but they do not show any disacceptance of the concept. This is a race, and what is yours is mine, and what is mine is yours. As for the offspring, it seems that there is not so much to think about either...... It's just that, from the perspective of Tianxiang's patriarch, this kind of thing not only means that the clan is strong, but also means that the food supply is more tight.
A large number of people were added and some of the hunters were reduced. Naturally, the acquisition of prey will be much reduced.
Or maybe it's time to develop other food sources. Raising bugs is just an idea, and although a plan has been made, it has not yet become a reality. What's more, now the bugs outside have gone through a winter of sleep. Simply in the thinnest state of hunger. Not to mention whether they can be killed smoothly, the little lean meat on the insects alone is not worth the hands of hunters.
The insect meat in spring is thin and tasteless. After all. Spring is the season of plants, the season of growth of all things. For a long time, Tianxiang has been thinking about one thing, something that has been tried but has not succeeded.
Plants instead of bugs. Replacing insect meat with plant fruits has become a new food resource.
But, is this possible? According to the information of the ancients, in ancient times. Plant foods account for more than 90 percent of human food sources. That is to say, those wise ancients, they simply fed on plants. As for meat, it seems to be only a necessary food supplement, according to them.
Even, some ancients advocated a complete vegetarian diet, believing that it could reduce the burden on the body and prolong life. But the problem is. Wheat, rice, and corn are all "grain" plants that are found in ancient books. Now there is simply nowhere to look. their seeds. It seems that they have completely disappeared with the battle of destruction that started for some unknown reason.
What's more, even if some survive, it is absolutely impossible to grow according to ancient records.
Because, there is no sunlight. Take corn as an example, according to the ancients. This plant, which can be used very highly, must have sufficient hours of sunlight to fully mature. In today's dark environment, I am afraid that this plant, which has a very high grain yield, will not even sprout.
So, what about the others? Isn't there anything else that doesn't need sunlight? For a long time, Tianxiang has been very careful to observe every plant around him. He found that those ancient plants mentioned in the books of the earth seemed to have no trace of existence in the existing world. A thick copy of "Botany", he can memorize it word for word from beginning to end. The legends are also clearly kept in mind. But it didn't work, and in reality there was no plant that was exactly the same. The huge contrast between books and reality can sometimes make Tianxiang crazy. He even had reason to believe that the "Botany" compiled by the ancients was something that would only exist in another world. Of course, hunters occasionally eat plants. When they are extremely hungry and have nothing to eat, they can only feed on plants.
However, none of those who ate plants survived. They frothed at the mouth and convulsed their bodies to death.
It is clear that plants are poisonous. They were poisoned.
Over time, the saying that plants are poisonous has gradually spread. Plants that are not poisonous, may or may not be there.
At least, in the memories of Tianxiang and all the tribesmen, what they heard, saw, and all the experiences they gained all showed that plants were poisonous. In order to adapt to their surroundings, organisms must change their inherent habits if they want to survive smoothly. This is the law of evolution, and it is also an inevitable move that nature uses to regulate itself. Although a few hundred years is not enough time for new species to emerge, it is enough for many organisms to gradually change their habits and adapt to survive in a harsh environment. This is where the great changes in plants come about. Especially when there is an almost complete loss of sunlight, plants are naturally unable to photosynthesize, and more and more toxic gases accumulate in their bodies. Over time, plants can only accept this reality, completely transform their own systems, and force themselves to accept the existence of toxins. In this way, the population continues to multiply. Such a plant is strange if it does not die if it is eaten.
Of course, this kind of thing is not completely absolute.
In the books of the ancients, Tianxiang once had a strong interest in a plant that was said to have a very high grain yield.
Potatoes, also called potatoes. It is a plant that grows completely underground. Compared with many above-ground plants, it does not have high requirements for the growing environment, and the yield is extremely rich.
On top of that, it is a plant that grows completely underground. To date, there have been no records of hunters being poisoned after eating underground plants.
This kind of thing, maybe you can eat it. The point is, where is he? Where can I find this plant?
A serendipity. Zhan Feng solved this problem for Tianxiang. For a long time, Ye Zhanfeng has always regarded Tianxiang as his absolute leader. Even he couldn't explain why. He only knew that since Tianxiang rescued himself from the mouth of the giant locust, it seemed natural that he had occupied a leadership position between the two of them. If you follow your previous unruly temper. I'm afraid it's impossible to heed anyone's orders. But I don't know how to do it, but in front of Tianxiang, I don't have a spotted temper at all. can only subconsciously obey all the instructions issued from his mouth. In fact, this is not the most basic manifestation of the subordination of the "pathfinders" to each other. As early as when the "Pathfinder" gene combination was originally set, ancient humans had already used the law of natural elimination to determine the relationship between the upper and lower levels of the future "Pathfinder". In other words, when two "pathfinders" with identical genetic conditions in all aspects encounter, the sixth sense in their brain will automatically compare their abilities according to their judgment. Among them, the stronger ones are selected as the leader. This comparison is entirely subconscious. There will be no harm to the brain owner. Because this is a taxonomic program that ancient humans have been carrying out since the beginning of the gene pool. No one can change it. Therefore, Tianxiang, who has received all the information and fused with the "tyrant", has naturally become the leader of the war style. In the same way, if one day there is a "pathfinder" who is better than Tianxiang, his subconscious will definitely order him to obey the chosen ones of the new land.
This is something that the ancients have arranged a long time ago, and no one can change it.
So, for the order given by Tianxiang. Even if it sounds unbelievable to others. The wind of war will always spare no effort to carry it out. Because of this, the wind of war was completely unexpected, acquiring a potato-like plant.
Ever since he successfully tamed the frog, Warwind has been pondering one question: there is no doubt that plants are poisonous. But why do humans kill them on the spot if they eat them, but insects are fine if they eat them? In the case of this young fly, if it is only dependent on plants for food. Then at least it has to consume dozens of kilograms of plants every day to meet the needs of the body. In this case, the toxins accumulated in the body are definitely beyond the range that humans can accept. However, insects, beasts, and meat are all right when people eat them. Why is that?
Could it be that the insect beast itself has a very perfect toxin purification system? Or are they inherently immune to toxins and are able to convert them into something they need?
War points are not scientists. Although, part of the genes that make up his body came from several of the most famous scholars of antiquity. However, this does not mean that his brain can have absolutely perfect thinking ability. After all, a civilization that has been dead for hundreds of years is simply an extremely difficult thing to re-establish through the efforts of a few people. Therefore, although he is a "pathfinder", Ye Zhanfeng, who has no clue about the connection between these things, in a sense, although he has been branded as a civilization, he can only be regarded as an evolutionary with a mind and receptivity that surpasses ordinary people.
However, it is very rare to be able to have these. It is precisely because of this that Zhan Feng began to observe this insect beast named "Xiaoqing" by Tianxiang from a more rational point of view. He vaguely felt that the clues to the plants that could be eaten by humans might have to be found from the insects.
After all, humans and insects are both animals, and as long as they are animals, they must have their common characteristics, and the same must be true for food. Qingfei's life is very leisurely, and every day is to eat, sleep and sleep. Even the name "Xiaoqing" seems to have been readily accepted. It can be seen that it has been tamed. With Tianxiang's exchange of thoughts and feelings, it finally gave up its attitude of being hostile to humans completely, and concentrated on enjoying the fragrant broth and tender green grass. The lazy and relaxed life has also made it grow a lot in just one month. Now Xiaoqing, if you stand up, it is enough to reach a height of more than two meters. As far as juvenile dragonflies are concerned, they are already quite an outlier. Food is precious. Especially when it is difficult to meet even people's requirements, it is even more precious. Although there is still a lot of frozen meat in the cold storage, Tianxiang doesn't want to raise a useless insect beast at all. Therefore, as soon as the one-and-a-half-month rest period ended, he took a group of right-hand men, as well as the newly tamed "Xiaoqing", and couldn't wait to walk out of the long-closed gate of the base.
Train more insects and beasts to build an absolutely formidable military force. This was Tianxiang's original idea. It's just that at present, when there is only one insect beast, Xiaoqing, this idea is obviously impossible to realize. In desperation, he could only turn to the next best thing, and first diverted the fattened green flies for other purposes.
After all, although Xiaoqing is still young, in terms of strength, he is definitely much stronger than any clansman. This, no one questions about it.
It may be a good idea to use the strength of insects and beasts to carry goods.
