Chapter 267: The Great Moon Tribe
This winter, large cellars were dug in many places to store food rations, except for the same as in previous years, a large amount of wheat that has not been hulled, flour that has been milled, sweet potatoes and soybeans, etc., that is, all kinds of vegetables that have never been seen before, especially green leafy vegetables, which are very rare in winter.
In previous winters, Lu was worried that people would not be able to eat fresh vegetables all winter and would be prone to vitamin deficiency, so he taught everyone to eat bean sprouts, and this year there was another kind of mung bean sprouts, and he was worried that some vegetables still couldn't be put away, so he asked everyone to pickle some vegetables.
Some are very simple and can be marinated in a few days with a little salt, while others are topped with chili peppers and sealed for several months, and they will not be eaten until next spring, such as mustard.
This winter, the people of the Otsuki tribe came again, the same tribe that traded energy stones with sweet potatoes and Lu.
In the last year or so, they have found that the demand for sweet potatoes and other food for this White Salt tribe — which Lu Qingqing has always called itself the White Salt Tribe in trading with them has become less and less.
Maybe they got it up and planted it themselves.
The people of the Great Moon Tribe thought so, this was originally an unavoidable thing, but the White Salt Tribe could not do without their sweet potatoes, but they could not do without the power stones.
Speaking of which, it also happened in the winter.
Because their tribe has provided Lu Qing with a large amount of food for several years, the gap in their food has become bigger and bigger, and the demand for hunting has been reduced, and they have taken away a large amount of prey, and there are fewer prey for some carnivores in the vicinity of nature. So at the beginning of winter this year, they were attacked by wolves.
The wolves are the enemies that the Great Moon Tribe is most afraid of encountering, because they always act in groups, if it is an ordinary wolf pack, it doesn't matter if there are a dozen or dozens of wolves, but this time the wolves are premeditated and hundreds appear at once.
The Dayue tribe is a big tribe, with a population of 100,000, but it is unbearable to be attacked by such a large-scale wolf pack at once, fortunately, there are several innate ability warriors in the tribe, with them as the main force, and they can barely repel the wolves, but the casualties are still very heavy, and the most terrible thing is that the two innate ability warriors are not lightly injured and need to be raised for a long time.
Before the winter was completely over, two pillars fell, and the tribe panicked all of a sudden, and this time the warriors were able to support it thanks to the power stones that could replenish their abilities in time anytime and anywhere, otherwise the wolves would have fallen because of overdraft.
So they realized that twenty power stones were too few, and this time they went to the Northland again, in addition to hoping to exchange for more power stones, they also wanted to exchange empty energy stones for full, and they found that absorbing the energy in the high-grade power stones was more beneficial for healing, much stronger than the energy stones they filled themselves.
This time they still brought out a long convoy, but this time it was all people pushing carts, not horses, and most of the people pulling the carts were old people, because they were afraid of taking too many young men and horses, and the tribe would suddenly be empty in case of another accident.
This convoy walked on the desolate and lonely land in winter, and was soon discovered by the reconnaissance team, and then Lu Qingqing, who was far away in the mountains northwest of Qinghu City, who was sending warmth to his subordinates, soon got the news.
The Great Moon Tribe...... She'd almost forgotten about the tribe, and it had been almost half a year since the last transaction.
She thought about it for a while, and asked people to directly take this team into the Qingwu City, which had never been done before, and they were all trading far away from the Qingwu City in the past.
She herself was in the rudimentary form of the Great Meat Tribe, now the leader of the wilderness, sending them crab sauce and pickles, as well as staple food and plenty of sewn hides and well-made boots, as well as weapons such as arrows.
The seeds sown in the summer have taken root and sprouted, and the threat to Qinghu City is growing, but Lu Qingqing is not in a hurry to attack Qinghu City, she has another idea.
At the end of the bonfire party, Lu gently left more than a dozen green energy stones for the wild, and then took a big bird deep into the mountain forest.
The coercion of the heavy bird was released, and the mountains and forests, which should have been full of danger in the deep winter night, were silent, and all the species hid in their nests and shivered.
Only one big guy rushed out to greet him.
Lu lightly looked at the beast that was still so huge and stupid after not seeing it for half a year, laughed, and touched its lowered head: "Long time no see, give you a gift." ”
She took out a palm-sized green energy stone: "Do you like this?"
The eater stared at the two bright yellow eyes that seemed to shine in the night, and couldn't wait to open his mouth, and swallowed the power stone in one bite, without even chewing it.
Lu lightly looked at the black line: "It's not for you to eat...... it's for you to absorb slowly."
Power stones can't make people conjure abilities out of thin air, unless it's a small baby in the womb of a female innate ability warrior, but it has a certain chance of deriving innate abilities from animals and plants, and she took away an ability to eat beasts, and she wants to return one.
As a result, the stupid one ate it without saying a word.
Reusable energy stones, Lu lightly felt a little painful, but this time I got a lot of them in Duke Liu's mansion, and as soon as I came back, I generously gave each of the warrior's subordinates more than ten pieces, a piece of energy stone, she can still afford it, just eat it.
Thinking like this, she fed two more to the big guy who was looking for the energy stone in her hand, and the eater beast was rarely full, and lay on the side to digest it, and Lu lightly waved his hand and took out the big power stone.
It was the half of the huge energy stone that was snatched from the mining area of the Holy See and the hands of the third prince, so big that she could roll on it, when she had nothing to do, she had been studying this big guy, and injected life force into it, and after getting it for so long, this energy stone showed a faint green, no way, its volume was too large, and the life force in Lu Qingqing's body was strong enough, and it was not enough to see in front of it.
At this moment, she jumped on it and sat down, while injecting life force into it, the life force in the general energy stone and the life force in her body formed a cycle, and in this process, the life force was constantly refined and refined.
"Squish, come too. She beckoned to the big bird, and the big bird jumped up with a slight kick of his legs, squatting next to Lu Qingqing, who was taller than she was sitting, tall and strong, and made her extraordinarily slender.
The night passed peacefully.
A month later, the team of the Great Moon Tribe finally entered Qingwu City, and they were stunned by this city.
Such a tall gate, such a strong wall, such a flat and open road, this is not at all different from the last time they came!
