Chapter 527: There have been so many thieves lately
This time with Shao Xuan went out with Zhengluo, Duokang and Guiyu, in general, the people on the other side of the sea still have more experience in planting than here, and they also have experience in digging things, after all, their former neighbors are good at planting the Taihe tribe, and they always have relevant experience. Handed over to them, the two witches are also more assured.
As for the fact that Gui Gully can continue to follow instead of the tower, it is because of the white falcon he raised, and when Chirp is absent, the early warning mission in the air can only rely on it.
Although Yanjiao knew that he couldn't hide it from everyone this time, he had to take precautions.
Ta was very depressed about this, when the brothers on the other side of the sea came over, it was not his turn to go out, and this time, it was still not his turn. So, the people of the other tribes who were exchanging feelings in Yanjiao went out to see the elongated face of the tower.
Shao Xuan led people to the cave where the Heavenly Vein was found again, and took a closer look around, no one else had come, and there were no traces of gnawing on the surrounding plants, and he breathed a sigh of relief.
"That's it. Shao Xuan pointed out the Heavenly Vein to the others.
Seeing the living celestial veins, everyone was very excited, and then thinking that these would all belong to their own tribe, they were even more excited.
"Huh, that's what Shao Xuan said, cabbage?" Zheng Luo looked at a cabbage in the forest.
What Shao Xuan brought back was just a vegetable ball, and here is a complete one, if Shao Xuan hadn't pointed it out, Zhengluo wouldn't have been on the right list at all.
"yes, that's it, I only cut the middle cabbage. ”
Seeing such a big dish, Zheng Luo nodded with satisfaction, and did not delay any longer, dividing the division of labor among the teams brought over, who was responsible for guarding, who was responsible for digging cabbage, and which was responsible for digging Tianmai.
Know that this place is full of treasures. A group of rough men with a burning horn looked particularly restrained here, raising their feet and walking in small steps. They had been told by the witch and the leader before they came, and they knew what to do, and it was precisely because they understood the preciousness of these things that they would be cautious and overly cautious. For fear that if one of them doesn't pay attention, which plant will be trampled to death.
The treatment of these precious plants is not that they hunt on weekdays, and they have to be gentle.
The word "gentle" is quite difficult for the Yanjiao people.
Considering that some people do not have a high degree of recognition of plants, and Tianmai is a plant that the tribe attaches great importance to, so there is no room for error, Shao Xuan first circled each Tianmai. This way, others can dig it with ease.
When Zhengluo ordered the excavation, the warriors who usually smashed the beasts with stone sticks thicker than people, and had no pressure, now held a small shovel the size of a palm, lying on the ground and pouting, digging up cautiously and carefully little by little.
After digging a shovel, he turned his head and asked Shao Xuan: "Great Elder, is it right for me to dig like this?"
Digging another shovel, he asked Zheng Luo again: "Chief." Do you want to keep digging?"
"Dig and dig, hurry! Don't grind, when are you going to dig like this?!!"
Zheng Luo couldn't stand it from the side. took out a small shovel, squatted down towards a small celestial vein in front of him, and his movements were fierce and windy. However, the moment the shovel went down to the ground, it was as if the brakes were suddenly slammed. before shoveling down a fingernail to a depth of cover.
Shao Xuan: "......"
Looking at this group of people who didn't sweat when they killed fierce beasts, they were sweating profusely after only shoveling a few shovels, and Shao Xuan couldn't stand it anymore.
This is the first time these people have done this, and the psychological pressure is too great and nervous. Wait after this time. It may be better to encounter a similar situation in the future.
Shao Xuan is in charge of the largest celestial vein, Zheng Luo dug a few shovels next to him and came over, to get the biggest one, as the leader, Zheng Luo must personally participate.
However, whether it was Zhengluo or Duokang, even Gui Yu, who had always been calm, was nervous when he was about to dig, and as soon as Shao Xuan shoveled down, they shook it. They were worried that Shao Xuan would dig up the heavenly vein, but they also knew that it was not a matter of being so nervous and cowering, and in the end, they could only follow Shao Xuan to move the shovel.
Their purpose was to bring this back to be transplanted, as long as they tried to ensure the integrity of the Tianmai roots, and there was no need to shovel all the soil, so Shao Xuan and the others basically started shoveling from the outside.
Shoveling away the soil, Shao Xuan continued to dig along the roots of the heavenly veins, sometimes with a shovel, sometimes with a beast hair brush, in order to bring this heavenly vein back, when digging it was like treating an antique.
In fact, the roots of the heavenly vein, although most of them look very thin, but the toughness is still very strong, not so fragile, especially this suspected to grow for thousands of years of the heavenly vein, its roots are harder than other small heavenly veins, when Duokang dig, accidentally shoveled heavy, nervously looked over, but found that after a shovel of the heavenly vein roots, there are only a few shovel marks that are not deep, and the skin has not yet been broken.
As long as you pay a little attention, there is no big deal, and you don't need to be too nervous, which makes a few people settle down, and they are no longer tied up in the future, and the efficiency of digging is also high.
The white falcon in the sky screamed a few times from time to time, just a warning and warning, if someone ignored the warning and broke in, the people of the Flame Horn had to do it.
Caesar was taken out by Shao Xuan and defended with the warriors in the forest, the wolf's nose was more sensitive than a person, and he could detect the neglect of the defending warriors.
When the sun was about to set, the largest celestial vein had been dug out, its roots were too long, and the spread range was relatively large, much larger than the above-ground part looked, like the meridians on the body of a giant more than ten meters high.
After digging it out, Shao Xuan wrapped the large piece of linen that he had already brought with him in the soil and wrapped the roots of the heavenly veins.
This place should not stay for a long time, they are now with treasures, and the movement when they come here can not be hidden, if they stay here for one night, maybe something will happen, and it is safest to return to the tribe as soon as possible.
"Have you finished digging everything else?" asked Shao Xuan.
"It's almost dug up, what Tianmai can see, no matter how big or small, has been dug up, the kind of cabbage you said, there are still some small ones that haven't been dug up. Zhengluo said.
"Whatever you do, wrap up what you dig up and bring it back, and dig up what you keep later. You sort it out first, and I'll go down to the hole. ”
Saying that, Shao Xuan took a clay pot, lifted the stone slab at the entrance of the cave, and jumped down.
In the underground cave, the three white bones were still lying there, maintaining their original posture. Perhaps in this position, they have been lying for almost a thousand years.
Shao Xuan placed a small clay pot that had been prepared a long time ago next to the three white bones, and some grains were placed in the clay pot.
The rules of the tribe, whoever finds it will get it, and whoever grabs it will get it. So, dig up everything here. I don't think there's anything, and so does Shao Xuan. What's more, most of the people of the Wang Cheng Ji family still have a grudge against Yanjiao, and when they were on the other side of the sea, the people of Wang Cheng chased and killed them.
Although he didn't know the identities of these three people, and he didn't know what had happened back then, Shao Xuan still decided to lie down, and it had nothing to do with Wang Chengji's family. It's not for anything else, it's just because when Shao Xuan was there, Jiju once said that if Shao Xuan encountered such a situation one day, he hoped that he could put a jar with grains next to those who couldn't return home, not asking for much good, just asking for a jar of grain.
Compared to the rest of the Wang Cheng Ji family, Ji Ju is not bad to the Yanjiao people. also helped Shao Xuan a lot, the seeds in Yanjiao's hands, some planting skills, etc. All of them are granted by the dwellings. What Jiju once said, Shao Xuan is also willing to do it.
Coming out of the cave and looking at the sky, Shao Xuan and Zhengluo together carried the dug things back to the tribe. Try to get back before it gets completely dark.
It was getting late, and many things could not be cleared, and the people who were secretly following the Flame Horn team in the distance could only see the Flame Horn warriors carrying or carrying things one by one.
Someone walked through the cave after Flamehorn left, and there was nothing to see on the ground. There were traces of passive soil everywhere, and it was impossible to see the key points, so the Flame Horn team turned this place again before leaving, erasing the key traces.
These people could only guess that the Yanjiao people were digging here, but they couldn't tell what they were digging up.
In fact, the people of Yanjiao did not hide everything, and the matter of cabbage was a little rumored, so in the tribe, some people knew that Shao Xuan found a new food outside and took people out to dig it, and the matter of Tianmai was not necessarily clear to people inside the tribe.
The next day, the people of several tribes who exchanged feelings in Yanjiao did not sleep all night with doubts, and when they woke up in the morning, they heard that Yanjiao had made a big move, and hurriedly ran over to see.
A piece of the newly reclaimed land has been blocked, blocked by a high wooden fence, and there are many soldiers guarding it outside, preventing others from approaching.
The people of the Tianshan tribe couldn't help but be curious, and wanted to fly up to the sky on an eagle to see, but as soon as they flew up, they were forced down by the patrol team with arrows.
The patrol team has a tough attitude, you have to listen to my territory, you can't help but be presumptuous once or twice! Feel uncomfortable? You can leave, what are you staying here for? Friendly exchanges? And you are so friendly exchanges? The next time I see it, I won't just force it down, but shoot it down!
It was rare that the people of the Tianshan tribe who were holding back their anger did not quarrel, they were really too curious, what did the Yanjiao people get?
The others also advised to be patient first, and they had to find out the situation of Yanjiao first.
It's just that when they really figured out what Yanjiao planted, their interest suddenly disappeared.
New food? Which of these tribes has less food? That is, the Tianshan tribe and the Hui tribe on the grassland have less food, and they are not interested in planting.
A new food was really not very attractive to their tribes.
Just for such a thing, so tightly guarded?
Yanjiao is really stingy!
At the same time, in the mountains and forests, all the heavenly veins have been planted in the fields that have been opened up in the tribe, and after a few days of adaptation, the heavenly veins in the ground have also begun to show their vitality. Especially those small veins, which have been suppressed and stunted in growth before, are now bigger and have fewer competitors for nutrients, so they are ready to start a new round of growth.
Looking at the celestial veins in the ground, the two witches smiled with relief, and the cabbage outside attracted the main attention of those people, and these celestial veins were very low-key.
"We have to send more people here. ”
"Definitely. ”
"The cabbage patch outside can't be relaxed either. ”
"Yes. ”
Wu and the leaders were talking, but Shao Xuan suddenly looked in a direction.
"What's wrong, Shao Xuan?" asked Zhengluo.
"There have been a lot of thieves lately. (To be continued.) )
PS: I watched the movie a little late, so I'll change it tonight.
Extraneous words: about Chinese cabbage in real history -
The origin of Chinese cabbage has the theory of hybrid origin and the theory of differentiation origin.
One of the ideas of the origin of hybridization is:
Original turnip X original bok choy = original loose leaf Chinese cabbage → half bulb Chinese cabbage → bulb bok choy
――
According to some literature and research, most of them believe that there is Chinese cabbage first, then Chinese cabbage, scattered leaf Chinese cabbage, and then Chinese cabbage. If you are interested, you can check the relevant literature. However, this article is an alternate world, don't bring it in, don't delve into it.
