Chapter 189: The cry for help in the barren meadow

"What are you talking about?"

The fox's voice came from behind, and the two of them immediately raised their heads.

Hu Qingyuan didn't think about it and was ready to answer.

"Longmo said ......"

"Nothing."

Long Mo's voice interrupted coldly, and he stepped forward beyond Hu Qingyuan, "Aren't you going to build a stone house?" I told Hu Qingyuan that I was here to help too. ”

As he spoke, he took the fox's delicate little hand and walked to the other side, distancing himself from the fox Qingyuan, not giving them a chance to talk.

"You help too? But you still have to hunt, won't you be too tired? Fox Jiaojiao didn't doubt it, and her voice was a little hesitant.

When did Long Mo have such a good relationship with the fourth brother, he actually offered to help.

"Don't be tired, half a day is enough to hunt." Long Mo replied indifferently, "And now they don't have enough manpower, aren't they." ”

The two walked away, and the fox Qingyuan behind him scratched his head suspiciously, did he say this just now? Clearly said ......

Originally, Hu Qiang and the four brothers could build a stone house, but now with Tiger Crystal, they have to build two stone houses, and they have to speed up the progress.

After discussion, it was finally decided that Hu Qiang and the second and third children would build a stone house for Hu Min, although Hu Qinggao had to make charcoal every day, but he only went there in the morning and evening, and he didn't have to stay there all day, and the time was completely in time.

The boss is helping Hu Qingyuan build a stone house, and Long Mo will also come to help.

Hu Jiaojiao didn't know about the agreement reached by Long Mo and Hu Qingyuan, and she was very relieved to see that their relationship had improved.

At least it's better than a-for-tat fight as soon as we meet.

Following.

The two families began to build a stone house, and Fox Jiaojiao was taking care of the cubs and had breakfast, so they went to the patriarch.

Fox Jiaojiao told the patriarch about the plan to keep rabbits in captivity.

Hearing Fox Jiaojiao's words, the patriarch looked surprised.

"Can you still keep rabbits? Can it be fed, and the rabbit is so small, it is not enough to eat, and it is very laborious and time-consuming......"

The patriarch frowned and made his point.

It's not that they haven't caught live prey, but the prey they catch is wild and untamable, and they don't want to eat, and by the winter, they are already so thin that they don't have a few pieces of meat, so it's better to eat them when they catch them.

In their minds, it is only right to go to the forest to hunt, and the forest is the best place to nurse.

Rabbits are weak and prey on many wild beasts, so there are not many rabbits in the forest, even if they reproduce quickly, and the patriarch only thinks that rabbits are no different from most wild beasts.

"Patriarch, rabbits breed quickly, as long as they are raised for a few months, the rabbits will reproduce quickly, and there is no need to make a special trip to feed, just build a fence in the captive site and enclose the rabbits in it."

Fox Jiaojiao patiently explained.

Without natural predators, the breeding number of rabbits would increase exponentially.

"That way, by next winter, people won't have to go to the forest to hunt and eat fresh meat."

Rabbits are small, but they can't stand the numbers.

Orcs like to eat meat, and although there are potatoes in winter, they are only barely hungry.

I have to say that the fact that I can eat fresh meat in winter makes the patriarch very excited.

"That'...... Where to raise? The patriarch couldn't help but ask.

"Don't worry, patriarch, I've found a good place."

Fox Jiaojiao's eyebrows curled up, revealing a shrewd smile.

The patriarch, who was still hesitant just now, couldn't wait to gather a few orcs and go to the destination with Fox Jiaojiao.

A group of orcs came to the place where the potatoes were planted.

"To be raised here? Didn't the rabbit eat all the earth fruits? As soon as the patriarch saw the earth fruit field, his face immediately hesitated.

These earth fruits are his lifeblood.

"Of course not." Fox Jiaojiao shook her head and stretched out her hand to the other side of the river not far away, "It's there." ”

The place she was referring to was the barren grassland across the river, where Long Yao had been in danger.

The barren grassland on the other side of the river is very large, except for some small beasts that will come to the river to drink, there are hardly any wild beasts approaching, and there are lush wild grasses, which are simply natural breeding grounds for rabbits.

Of course, the premise is that they can keep the rabbit in place and not let the rabbit escape.

"But rabbits can make holes, wooden walls can't stop them, and stone walls can make holes and escape." The patriarch pondered and asked.

"This is not a problem, the rabbit usually burrows less than one meter deep, and the deepest is only three meters, as long as the fence is built from three meters underground, the rabbit will not run away."

Fox Jiaojiao explained confidently.

Of course, this knowledge is not in her memory, and even if she knows this, the data on the earth cannot be used as a reference in the beast world, and this knowledge comes from space books.

After returning from Hu Min's house yesterday, she found that there were more books in the space, originally thought that books were useless in the beast world, she flipped through them casually, but she didn't expect that these books were all based on the beast world.

She happened to see this, and she couldn't wait to come to the patriarch.

The most important thing for the tribe at the moment is to solve the problem of food and winter shelter.

Hearing the explanation, the patriarch's eyes lit up, "That's right! I didn't expect it, but Jiaojiao knows more and has more ideas. ”

"Quick, just do what Jiaojiao said, go and call someone."

The patriarch smiled and patted her elbow, and immediately asked the accompanying males to summon the orcs to work.

Recently, the happy events of the tribe have come one after another, and his mouth has never been closed.

Soon, the patriarch arranged for dozens of orcs to come over.

Because of the rapidity of the river, the orcs had to rely on the orcs of the bird clan to carry them across the river.

There is only one bird orc among the ten orcs.

The number of bird orcs in the tribe is very small, and it is impossible to arrange all bird orcs to come over, and Fox Jiaojiao also noticed this.

You can't cross the river in the future, or let the bird orcs carry it.

"Looks like we have to build a bridge first......"

Fox Jiaojiao looked at the river and thought, and was thinking about going back to the space to find out if there was a way to build a bridge, when the call of the patriarch sounded in her ears.

"Jiaojiao, come and see, how big of land do you want to circle?"

Fox Jiaojiao came back to her senses, opened the wild grass that was a full man tall with both hands, and walked to the patriarch's side.

"Can you fence off all this land?"

It's easy for orcs to catch rabbits in this field, but it's much easier to hunt in the forest.

Rabbits like to be quiet and afraid of being disturbed, and if the range is too small, it is easy to startle the rabbit when catching.

"Yes, but I'm afraid it will take a bit long......" the patriarch replied with a serious look on his face, rubbing his chin.

"Can it be built before winter comes?"

There are six months in winter, enough for the rabbit to grow up and breed the following year, and the fox Jiaojiao does not want to miss such a good transition period.

"Of course you can."

The patriarch nodded triumphantly.

"That'll do." Fox Jiaojiao smiled and nodded, then took off the animal skin package she brought with her and handed it to the patriarch.

"Patriarch, please let them spread these evenly in this field."

"Okay, no problem."

The patriarch trusted Fox Jiaojiao very much, and without even asking what it was, he took the package and gave it to the orcs of the Bird Clan.

After the patriarch left, Hu Jiaojiao looked around to observe the situation of this barren grassland.

Before she knew it, she was far away, and just as she came back to her senses and was about to go back, she suddenly heard a cry for help in the distance.

"Save us, save our ......"
