CHAPTER XX

The tribesmen carried supplies from the camp to the valley, and everyone got busy preparing to settle in the valley.

"Nan, you set fire to this woods. "Aoyama Feng Road. Tribal migrations generally start with fires to the forest, and when the weeds and trees on the ground are burned away, everyone digs a burrow on it to live.

"Patriarch, are we still going to live in the crypt?" asked Han Nan.

"Hmm. Qingshan Feng was slightly puzzled and said, "If you don't live in the crypt, where do you live?"

"There's a kind of building in my hometown that we can find a way to build and live in. Han Nan drew a small sample of a house on the ground with a tree branch and pointed it out to Qingshan Feng.

Han Nam had had this idea for a long time, and he had long been reluctant to live in a damp and dark crypt. At first, his idea was to build himself a wooden house. However, the tribe used stone tools, and it was inconvenient to cut wood, so Han Nan was forced to dispel this idea. Later, after the tribe began to fire pottery, Han Nan had another idea: he could abandon the wooden house and build a house directly with adobe bricks. Tribes can fire pottery, and simple bricks are naturally easier.

Qingshan Feng looked at the graphics on the ground, Qingshan Ye, and Feng Feiyan sisters also came over.

"Nan, how did you come up with these things. Feng Feiyu looked at the graphics on the ground and raised his head to look at Han Nan.

"This kind of architecture is not available here, but it is very common in our hometown. "Hannam-do.

"It looks like it's doable. Qingshan Feng nodded and said: "It's just that this kind of building needs to be built with something, is it made of stones? If stones are used, I'm afraid our tribe will not have enough manpower." ”

"It's not a stone. Han Nan shook his head and said, "Do you remember the pottery we fired? This time we burned it into a square shape and covered it with twig mud so that it could keep out the wind and rain." Then leave a window on it so that it will let in light and not be as wet as in the crypt. ”

"Then let's do what you say, shall we?" Feng Feiyan listened to Han Nan's description, and his heart was already a little impatient.

"There are still some difficulties......

"What difficulty?"

"The difficulty is that there are not enough people. Han Nan frowned and said, "To fire adobe bricks, a brick kiln must be built." But I have just considered that even the simplest brick kiln cannot be completed with the more than 200 people in our tribe. ”

"What then?" After listening to Han Nan's description, everyone originally wanted to live in such a building as soon as possible. But now when I hear Han Bei say that it can't be completed, everyone is a little disappointed.

"Let's get the bricks out first, and then let's figure it out. Han Nan said: "And these trees are better to store, winter is coming, everyone should store firewood for the winter." ”

Qingshan Feng nodded in agreement and began to instruct the clansmen to do what Han Nan said. Qingshan Feng is quite convinced of Han Nan now, as long as it is what Han Nan says, she will follow it.

Although he is the patriarch, most of the things in the tribe are now in charge of Han Nan. Qingshan Feng did not have any dissatisfaction with this, but there was a kind of relaxation after relying on it.

Han Bei was still frowning and thinking. He found that if the tribe continued to develop, population would inevitably be a major factor limiting the development of the tribe. Without an adequate workforce, many jobs cannot be carried out.

Just like now, it is much better to live in a brick house than in a crypt, but because of the lack of labor, it is impossible to build a brick kiln, so this plan can only be put on hold.

Population, population ...... Han Nan frowned and thought about these two words. At present, there are only more than 200 people in the tribe, and if we wait for the tribesmen to slowly multiply, we don't know when it will take. The population problem has to be solved from other places.

"What people!"

The clansman in charge of the guard suddenly shouted, and Han Nan saw a group of people peeking out of the grass not far away.

The tribesmen threw away their work, grabbed their weapons, and quickly assembled.

After this migration, the clansmen's sense of battle has been significantly improved.

The two sides were no more than a dozen steps apart, and they confronted each other like this. Han Nan looked at the other party and saw that there were about 200 people on the other side, led by a short and stout man.

In terms of numbers, the other party has the advantage, but now the clan has obsidian weapons in their hands, and they have a certain advantage in terms of weapons. If there is a real battle between the two sides, it will definitely be a result of losing both.

The other party did not act rashly, and should have the same thoughts.

It is not an option to remain deadlocked. Han Nan suddenly stretched out his arms and said to the sky, "Great God of Flames......"

"Great God of Fire......

Almost at the same time, the dwarf sweat on the other side said exactly the same thing to Han Nan.

"O great god of flames, have mercy on your devotees, why did you let these sinners come to this land......"

The same words, word for word, are spoken from two different mouths.

"Huh!" Han Nan's eyes widened, staring at the strong man opposite, who was also looking at him with the same gaze.

"There are people in this world who are as brazen as I am!" both thought to themselves.

"Let's put down our weapons first...... the strong man said to everyone behind him.

"Scattered, scattered......" Han Nan also waved his hand behind him.

"I am the patriarch of the Baili tribe, and the Baili Thunder. The strong man introduced himself.

"Wizard of the Qingshan Tribe, Han Nan. "Hannam-do.

"It turned out to be the Qingshan tribe, I've heard about it a long time ago, but I don't know why the Qingshan tribe came here?"

The Qingshan tribe is five or six hundred miles away from here, and it is strange that a hundred miles of thunder have heard of it. However, Han Nan did not expose it, and said: "Our tribe suffered a fire, so we had no choice but to migrate here, but I didn't expect to meet the Thundering Patriarch." It's the first time we've come here, and we don't know the situation here, can Patriarch Aoyama give us an introduction. ”

"In addition to the Baili tribe here, there are three tribes here. The relationship between everyone is very harmonious, and after the Qingshan tribe came here, everyone will be neighbors, and they will help each other in the future. ”

"It's almost a certainty. Han Nan said: "If you have the opportunity, you must visit the Baili tribe." ”

Baili thundered and said: "There is one thing, you should pay attention, there is also a cannibal tribe around here, they don't understand human nature, and they can't communicate with us, you must be careful when you meet them." ”

"Cannibal tribe?" Han Nan was a little surprised when he suddenly heard about the cannibal tribe.

"The cannibal tribe is not far from Skull Mountain, and your people must not act alone in the future, otherwise if they are caught by the cannibal tribe, all that remains is bones. Baili Leiming's expression was a little ugly, he had many people who had been captured and eaten by the cannibal tribe before.

"Thank you Patriarch Thunder for reminding me. "Hannam-do.

After Baili Lei Ming left, the clansmen began to get busy. Everyone digs the earth on the shore and kneades it into bricks to dry in the sun.

Han Nan saw that Aoyama was also busy, so he came to her side to help.

Qingshan Ye knew that Han Nan's hands-on ability was too poor, so he didn't allow him to do it, and only let him watch from the side. Han Nan came up with an idea: "Actually, you don't have to be so troublesome, you can use wood to make a mold, and then it will be more convenient to buckle it directly." ”

"What mold?" asked Aoyamano.

Han Nan drew a square on the ground and said, "Nail the wooden planks together with fine bones and wooden thorns, and then put the clay directly in it......"

Speaking of this, Han Nan was stunned suddenly, and something suddenly thought of in his heart.

In fact, it is not necessary to burn bricks to build a house.
