Chapter Twenty-Six: The Sweet Taste
However, after ten days, even if four acres of corn were harvested, the food yield from farming alone was not as much as the catch of the old people fishing.
Now, the tribe has four acres of sweet potatoes and four acres of corn.
Harvested every ten days, sweet potatoes are about more than 20,000 catties, and corn is only a pitiful six or seven thousand catties, and the two are only more than 30,000 catties together.
For the tribe's food consumption of 40,000 or 50,000 catties per ten days, there is still a gap of nearly half.
Of course, Li Hao can choose two pieces of land to plant sweet potatoes, and those eight acres of land will have at least about 50,000 catties of food harvested every ten days, even if there is no catch in the future, it is enough for the tribe.
But the question is, isn't there still a catch?
Looking at the current situation, as long as they don't go too far, don't continue to hunt other camel dragons, and don't go into the lake to net fish on a large scale, they won't anger the camel dragon king who lives on the island in the center of the lake, then their catch dividends should be able to eat for a long time.
Therefore, planting corn is one more food choice, and it is also a boring recipe for enriching the tribe.
After all, he is accustomed to the flavors of modern society, although Li Hao can eat enough here, but he eats fish and grilled bacon all day long, and he really didn't eat well.
After harvesting more than 20,000 catties of sweet potatoes and going back, the witch led the female warriors to hide half of them immediately, Li Hao had already gotten used to it, and he didn't care about it, and he couldn't take care of it.
Although he is still arrogant as a patriarch, he really doesn't say anything when it comes to food storage.
Looking at the witch's cold and arrogant beautiful eyes, as well as the little man who stared at him fiercely, Li Hao thought thoughtfully, "Is this considered the male protagonist and the female protagonist?" But this hasn't passed the door yet, isn't she too anxious! ”
The remaining more than 10,000 catties of sweet potatoes were also distributed by the shrine maiden, according to the number of people in each family.
Soon, piles of bonfires were raised, and under Li Hao's teaching, the clansmen finally ate the legendary roasted sweet potatoes, and almost sweet tears came out one by one, which was too delicious.
They eat wild vegetables and fruits with a bitter taste and bad taste all year round, and even grass root bark, and only a few times can eat meat, and there is almost no involvement in sweets.
Wild honey that can be eaten occasionally is also extremely rare, and many people are born without knowing the sweetness.
But today, they all know that this is the sweet taste.
Li Hao also ate one, not to mention it, it was noodles and sweet, and it was still juice.
I don't know if it's because the steam witchcraft ripening machine uses Lingyuan stones, these sweet potatoes seem to have absorbed the aura of heaven and earth, and they are exceptionally sweet. But because of this, the clansmen showed off in their stomachs one after another, and they couldn't stop at all.
This taste and texture made these primitive people very intoxicated.
Soon, about a few thousand catties of sweet potatoes were eaten clean by a breakfast in the tribe.
In normal times, this is almost equivalent to the entire day's ration.
After the meal, the women and children, all surrounded their patriarch, excitedly "huo" monsters, began a rough and wild dance, as well as primitive passion drums and songs, which were expressing their ultimate praise and support to Li Hao.
Praise him for guarding the tribe and bringing sweet food, he is simply a messenger of the gods.
The people feel that their lives are happier than ever, and they are full of confidence and hope for the future.
But at the end of the singing and dancing, all the women and children, including Da Niu, Hu Lieshan and others, all looked solemn, raised their right fists, clenched their left fists around their waists, and shouted in unison around Li Hao: "Su Po slow!" Su Po slow! Su Po slow! ”
Li Hao's face turned red from this sudden shout, and he almost choked on a mouthful of sweet potatoes!
Is this a mantra that he habitually shouts when he uses the Steam Witchcraft Blindfold?
Perhaps they took this as an auspicious phrase, after all, every time he shouted it, the enemy was defeated and the tribe was victorious.
Therefore, "Su Po Slow" seems to have become some kind of spell that can bring strength and courage to people, but everyone, it really is not!
It was a mantra that he had had when his brain was pumping......
……
That night, Yao Lao, who had been away for several days, returned.
This time, he was wounded.
However, it's not a big problem, and you'll be fine with some herbs.
According to him, it was not because he encountered an enemy tribe, but because he was injured by a powerful four-horned beast while he was looking for the thousand-year-old king.
I came back this time to borrow something from Li Hao.
"You keep saying that!"
Li Hao didn't hide it either, and directly took out a steam witchcraft blindfold with a strange shape and four small metal nozzles and said.
Yao Lao carefully looked at the long list of mysterious runes on the witchcraft blindfold and nodded solemnly.
Those runes made him feel dizzy and uncomfortable, and the more he looked at them, the more mysterious and complicated they became, reminding him of the inheritance witch treasures in the tribe.
"This must be a gift from the gods!"
Legend has it that in ancient times, the gods of the heavens often liked to live on earth, and they often gave treasures to their chosen humans.
The Yellow Emperor's Xuanyuan Divine Sword, which is cast by the bronze of the first mountain of the gods, was given to Xuanyuan Yellow Emperor to defeat Chiyou, which contains infinite power and is a divine sword for slaying demons and eliminating demons.
Even, many women are inspired by the gods to give birth because they occasionally step on the footprints of the gods in the wild.
It is said that Taihao Fuxi's mother, Hua Xu, became pregnant and gave birth because she stepped on the footprints of Thor.
Therefore, when Yao Lao saw the witchcraft blindfold, his first reaction was the same.
Such a delicate and powerful witchcraft is definitely a divine treasure, and no one in the world can forge it.
"Yes!"
Li Hao nodded, he didn't explain much, if he said too much, he would lose it, and some things were better to say less.
Moreover, he didn't know what such an extremely unscientific technology product as a science and technology tree was.
"However, I can't lend it to you, or rather, it's useless to lend it to you, it's something that only I can use."
didn't need Li Hao to explain more, Yao Lao nodded, as if he had expected Li Hao's answer.
"I thought of this, but there is an extremely powerful beast guarding it in the deep mountains where the thousand-year-old ginseng king is located, if we don't defeat it, we won't be able to collect medicine, and we won't be able to treat the Great Elder. So ......"
Yao Lao's expression was still solemn, as if the divine treasure of the witchcraft blindfold had brought him great spiritual shock, so that he did not dare to be contemptuous in the slightest.
"So, Yao Lao wants me to go there myself, right?"
As soon as Li Hao's words fell, the witch and Ah Man both looked at him together, full of anticipation. Especially Xiao Aman, with a pair of red apricot eyes, tears rolling, making people feel distressed.
In fact, these days, he has been sending the hunting team of Hulie Mountain out to look for strange beasts.
If you want the tribe to become strong quickly, you need to build walls and strengthen your defenses; Cultivated land should be reclaimed to increase production and income.
What's more, sacrifice the tech tree and turn on the hidden lottery feature.
Those prizes are the guarantee of the rapid development of the tribe.
Now the tribe is cultivating the third piece of cultivated land, however, Li Hao does not have the third [Steam Witchcraft Ripening Machine] in his hand, he continues to kill a few more strange beasts, and once again starts the lucky draw of the Lucky Wheel.
Therefore, it is reasonable, whether it is for the Great Elder who has always supported him, or for the sake of his childhood sweetheart Xiao Aman, or for the sake of sacrificing the Science and Technology Tree, Yao Lao's request, he wants to agree.
"It's just, what if he goes, what if the Beidi people come again?"
