Chapter 48: The Snow Season Has Arrived

Since pestering A-Niang and agreeing to let her go into the mountains, but causing a disturbance of getting lost, Zhu Yuanyuan has never mentioned that he wants to follow his second brother to work.

If the strength is not good, even if you enter the mountain, you will not be free, it is better to stay in the tribe for a few years, and wait until you are older and stronger.

Besides, the second brother was already jealous of her favor, but now that she has been beaten up and beaten, where will he be willing to take her.

It's better to do more daily study tasks, not only to learn knowledge, but also to save knowledge points to buy what you want!

Zhu Yuanyuan's self-consolation was very successful, and he rarely went out during the day, taking advantage of the fact that no one at home was doing more tasks, he soon saved hundreds of knowledge points, and the snow season was quietly coming.

Feeling that the weather suddenly became cold, the old patriarch Zhu He summoned the old, weak, sick and disabled in the tribe to start digging potatoes and sweet potatoes, and the young and strong men were the ones who should hunt and the woodmen who should chop wood.

Zhu Yuanyuan, who got the news, went to join in the fun, and found that although it was excavated in advance, the potatoes that could be harvested were also bigger than her fist.

Because of the lack of seeds, the old patriarch only planted about one and a half acres, and she roughly estimated that she could harvest at least two thousand catties of potatoes, and the results were gratifying.

I went to the sweet potato field where only half an acre was planted and took a look, and the small sweet potatoes in the long strip were a little smaller, and there were a lot of them, at least 1,000 catties.

With these sweet potatoes and potatoes, and the pickled meat in the public storeroom, even if the tribesmen can't eat enough every day during the snow season, they can ensure that they don't starve to death.

Zhu He was so excited that he burst into tears, "Okay, great." ”

"Time is too tight, if there is another month, you will harvest more," Zhu Yuanyuan said with a little regret.

"It's okay, it's enough to harvest so much," Zhu He quickly regained his composure, he said, "I'll pick more good ones later, and don't move until necessary." ”

Zhu Yuanyuan made it clear that this is to keep the seeds, and there will be plenty of time to plant two stubbles next year, so that there is no need to worry about starving to death in the future.

Sure enough, she wouldn't be a stupid person who had been a patriarch, she was still struggling with how to mention seeds, the old patriarch already had a proposition, and she didn't need to worry about it at all.

The day after the potato and sweet potato harvest, it snowed heavily in the sky, and goose-feathered snow flew everywhere, gradually covering the earth.

Snow season has arrived!

Zhu Yuanyuan didn't dare to run around outside, so he sat by the fire and watched Daddy block the entrance of the cave with a big stone door, "This door doesn't seem to be too tight, it's leaking, isn't there a better door?" ”

"It's all like this," Zhu Xiaofen added some water to the small stone pot on the fire, "The stone is not easy to grind, and it is impossible to think that there is no wind leakage at all." ”

"You can make a door out of wood," Zhu Yuanyuan suggested with great interest.

The standard of living in modern society is generally good, but it does not mean that there are no poor people, and some families still use wooden doors.

And this world is so wooded that it is okay to make a door out of a whole plank.

"No," Zhu Qiang directly refused, "The wood is too fragile to withstand the attack of fierce beasts, so it's better to have a stone gate." ”

"Can't stop the beast," Zhu Yuanyuan was shocked, "Could it be that we will also be attacked in the valley, and there is no patrol guarding it?" ”

Wait, she suddenly came back to her senses, the snow kept drifting outside, the temperature was getting lower and lower, maybe the only clothes to keep out the cold were animal skin dresses, and if you wore less, it would be cold, and if you wore too much, you would be wrapped into a ball, and you couldn't even walk.

In this case, it is impossible for the patrol to stay outside all the time.

Zhu Qiang's next words also confirmed Zhu Yuanyuan's guess, he said, "The patriarch sent people to block the exit with dead wood and boulders, and the heavy snow will become a snow wall for a few days, which can block the beasts, but the birds are flying from the air and can't stop it." ”

"If you encounter a bird of prey passing by and find that there is an orc tribe in the valley, you will definitely not let it go," Zhu added.

Under the popular science of Daddy and Auntie, Zhu Yuanyuan knew how dangerous the snow season was, starving and freezing, and having to guard against possible raptor attacks at any time.

There is too little food in the snow season, and the fighting power of hungry birds of prey soars, and the tribes with slightly less strength are afraid of being wiped out when they are attacked by flocks of raptors.

"Daddy, have you heard of any small tribe being exterminated?" Zhu Yongmeng asked curiously.

"Yes," Zhu Qiang did not hide it, "On the other side of our tribe, there was a short-eared rabbit tribe, which was wiped out by a flock of birds of prey in the snow season nineteen years ago because of its small number of people and weak combat effectiveness. ”

The orcs of the short-eared rabbit tribe are mainly vegetarians, while the black pig tribe is mainly meat-eating, and the conflict between the two sides is not big, so there is no need to deliberately distance themselves, so they only settle four or five mountains.

In the snow season that year, the Black Pig Tribe vaguely heard some movements, and the patriarch was worried that something would happen and sent hundreds of young people to help, but it was too late.

More than 300 orcs of the short-eared rabbit clan are gone.

Zhu Yuanyuan was horrified when he heard it, "It's terrible." ”

"So strength is very important," Zhu Qiang's tone was heavy, "Ah Meng, Yuanyuan, I hope you will cultivate hard, earnestly study combat skills, and become a strong man, at least a Xuan-level warrior." ”

"Mmmm," Zhu Yuanyuan nodded vigorously, "I will." ”

It's a pity that the sun and moon are not seen in the snow season, so I can't practice, so I can only exercise more in the virtual class to enhance my physique.

She thinks it's good to have a few more physical arts classes a day.

Zhu Yongmeng was not to be outdone, "I will also work hard, however, a Xuan-rank warrior is not my goal, I will become a heaven-level warrior in the future." ”

At present, it can be said that it is very ambitious.

Daddy Zhu didn't think that his second son was too ambitious, but he was very pleased, patting people on the shoulder and encouraging, "Yes, cultivate hard in the future, and don't be greedy for fun." ”

Zhu Yongmeng nodded like pounding garlic, "I know, I must work hard to cultivate and not be greedy for fun." ”

He said in his heart that Daddy hadn't said these things before, and it was normal for him to be young and playful.

The family talked and laughed around the fire, and the atmosphere was very warm.

Zhu Yuanyuan enjoys this reunion moment very much, even if there are no high-tech products such as mobile phones, computers and tablets in this world, she is willing to stay.

The idea is good, but the reality is cruel.

With his family by his side, and there was no shortage of food and drink, he was very happy to stay in the cave for three days without going out, but after seven or eight days, he had to continue to squat at home, and Zhu Yuanyuan began to sit still.

One moment he sat down, the other he stood up, and every few minutes he ran to lie down on a simple bed covered with hay and hides.

Zhu Yuanyuan tossed happily, jumping around in the cave, he was not annoyed, but he dazzled the eyes of his family.

"Can't you stop it?" Zhu Yongmeng asked with a frown.

"No," Zhu Yuanyuan shook his head honestly, "Every day except for eating and sleeping, it's so boring~ When will the snow stop?" ”

Daddy said that in the snow season, you can only go out to breathe when the snow stops, and now the snow doesn't stop, and you can't even move the stone gate to take a few looks, let alone go out.

"It's still early, it won't stop for two or three days in at least half a month," Zhu Qiang replied.

"What?" Zhu Yuanyuan hugged his head and wailed, "I'll die of boredom." ”

It would be nice if I could capture the spiritual power in the air and cultivate like the cultivators in the novel.

Zhu Qiang patted the little female's head helplessly, "What do you say, don't always make this weird look, just sleep when you're bored." ”
