Now was the time when the various tribes began to get busy, so both sides did not delay time, and after eating early the next morning, Iris came over to invite Song Xuan to see where the limestone was.

Obviously, the manpower has been arranged, and Iris didn't bring too many people, just pulled two men and three women, and then took Song Xuan to the southwest.

Since it took two days to arrive, both sides also brought enough food and equipment, and the weapons were also in hand, and it was dangerous to be too far away from the kite tribe.

If you meet with other tribes, Teng Snake will not carry bows and arrows on this side, and if you do, they will be placed on the boat, and they will not be displayed in front of everyone.

Therefore, at this time, the weapons carried by the people on both sides were almost the same, mainly spears and stone axes.

As for the sling, because it is relatively hidden, it usually does not attract the attention of others, and the projectile is also contained in the animal skin bag, which is easy to see, so it is usually brought.

Teng Snake has given everything here, and Kite Yu is naturally not stingy, and he described the general situation to Song Xuan along the way.

If you want to find a more special stone, then it is obviously not good to pick it up everywhere, that kind of stone, any tribe takes out the same, naturally there is no way to deceive the Teng Snake...... Swap to food.

So most of the time, they find some uncommon ones from caves, rock walls, and accidentally exposed stone piles, of course, the kite tribe will not deliberately look for them, and occasionally they will take them back.

In order to meet the requirements of Teng Snake, you must know the address when you exchange it here, and Iris also thought of a special method, that is, each stone is handed over to a person to be responsible.

It is obviously very difficult for a few people to remember the origin of dozens of stones, not to mention primitive people, even in modern times, probably no one can remember so many places, not to mention that the status of stones in everyone's hearts is not so important.

But it is not so difficult for a person to remember one, especially since the candidates are selected from the few people who are found, and the reliability is relatively high.

Limestone was also found under such circumstances, and when the gathering team of the kite tribe was picking wild fruits, it suddenly rained heavily, and in order to escape the rain, they entered the cave.

Just when everyone was about to use stones to surround a stove to cook and keep warm, they didn't expect the stones in their hands to be extremely fragile, and some of them remembered that the iris let everyone collect stones, so they brought it back.

I didn't expect this stone to really work, not only did the exchange conference exchange some pottery, but there was also a follow-up exchange this year, which was also completely unexpected, so when he heard it, Song Xuan said that after returning to the step tribe, he immediately paid attention to it.

I took this stone and found several people who found it at that time, because every time I looked for a stone, the personnel arrangement was very clear, so I quickly found the person in charge of remembering the origin of this stone.

Although the cave is not very close to the Kite Tribe, it is also within the scope of their tribe, in order to ensure that it is indeed found in this cave, Kite Yu also sent someone to run again, and the stones he got back were the same as the ones given to him by Song Xuan.

Just two days after he came back, Song Xuan came over, and the price he offered was also very satisfactory to him, and he was naturally very enthusiastic at this time.

Everyone is in the same area, and the surrounding environment is similar, although there are not many mountains on the side of the kite tribe, but relatively speaking, the ups and downs are still relatively large.

Sure enough, as he described, he arrived at his destination in the evening of the next day, and there were stones at the mouth of the cave, and trees covered it, but there were some places without three hundred taels of silver.

Removing the branches at the entrance of the cave and lighting the torches, Kite Rain walked in first.

Song Xuan has also discovered that the kite tribe still uses the same way of making fire as Teng Snake before, that is, keeping the fire, even in the wild.

Although it is very fast to make a fire if the fire is not extinguished, in an emergency or if the fire is extinguished, it is more difficult to make a living, especially in the wild.

There are generally multiple fires in the tribe to preserve, even if it is a snake, there are at least three fires in the tribe now, which are burning all year round, and it is basically impossible to extinguish them at the same time, but once you leave the tribe, it is difficult to say.

Song Xuan also felt that the fire attack seemed to have the potential to sell a batch among the surrounding tribes, even if the difficulty of making it was relatively low, it was not a problem to make a hammer deal.

However, you must be careful when selling, to ensure that you can only get the benefit when most of the tribes are there, and to maximize it and ensure a sense of mystery.

The cave is not tall and you still have to bend slightly when you walk in, but the inside is quite spacious, and it can accommodate at least twenty or thirty people, and there is no big problem.

There were also a lot of stones scattered on the ground, and they also showed a faint white color under the light of the fire, but the sparks of the fire were still yellowish, and Song Xuan was not sure at this time.

Pick up a piece and it feels pretty much the same.

"Oracle, this is it!"

Obviously, under the light of the two torches, the cave still looks a little dark, especially the entrance of the cave, which is not easy for the northeast sun to shine in.

"Fierce, light a few more fires!"

Wood and thatch were also kept at home, and when there was a fire, the fire soon burned, and Shi Meng searched for some dead branches around, and soon lit fires in all corners of the cave.

The little cave suddenly lit up.

Song Xuan didn't care about the stones on the ground, but picked up the stone hammer and gently knocked on the surrounding rock walls, but there was no obvious change in the four or five meters of the cave entrance, and the stone hammers were all hard, but they were only different when they went deep inside.

Much of the cave's depths were fragile, cracking when the hammer hit it, and the exposed stones were white.

Song Xuan also sampled and stored in time, and wrapped some with a piece of animal skin at a distance.

Even if it is basically certain, it is still necessary to have the rigor that should be there.

Seeing that Song Xuan was busy and a little carried away, Kite Yu had no choice but to start cooking dinner at the entrance of the cave, obviously there was no way to set off again today, it was already this time, it was better to rest here tonight and return to the tribe tomorrow.

Song Xuan didn't collect too much, just get one or two pieces in each direction, otherwise it would be too much for everyone to carry, but even if it was such a stone full of animal skin, there were more than twenty catties.

"Oracle, what are you looking for stones for?"

Although he knew that it was inconvenient to ask, Iris still couldn't suppress his curiosity, and asked Song Xuan about the purpose of the stone during the meal.

"Build a house!"

Although Song Xuan was telling the truth, Iris was obviously a little unconvinced.

But Song Xuan said so, he could only accept it with half a doubt, and continue to entangle, but it was a little rude, after all, eating people with short mouths and soft hands with people, he received a lot of benefits from Teng Snake.

Even the two sides agreed that the ownership of this cave belongs to the Teng Snake tribe for the time being, it is just a cave, and it is not very important in the eyes of Iris, but Song Jun said that if the stone is true, Teng Snake is going to come here to mine, and this matter has made Iris pay some attention.

Although the cave is not important, this area is indeed the sphere of influence of the kite tribe, although there is no exact division of power among the surrounding tribes, but everyone will obviously have a general hunting range, which is the territory that each tribe considers to be.

Even if the tribes are relatively close, they will deliberately keep their distance at the junction, and there is no essential difference between hunting and invading other tribes within the range of other tribes.

The two tugged for a while, and finally discussed, if Teng Snake has any action, he must send someone to inform the Kite Tribe, otherwise it will not be clear at that time, once the two sides have a conflict, it will violate the principle of tribal friendship.

Although this kind of reporting made Song Xuan's heart a little unhappy, but this is also the principle of survival here, and the Teng Snake is not easy to offend, anyway, the kite tribe can't know the specific purpose.

Although the transaction was not complicated, both parties seemed to be very satisfied, and they both got what they wanted, and although Song Xuan wasted some time, the limestone was basically confirmed.

Taking advantage of everyone's inattention, he also secretly threw a piece and put it in the bowl, although the stone was not big and not crushed, but after taking it out, he could still feel the temperature on the surface.

The only thing that made Song Xuan not very satisfied was that this place was not close to the river, and Song Xuan also asked Iris for the specific location, and it would take at least a day to walk to the river.

In this way, it still increases the difficulty of mining, it is far away from the Teng snake, and it takes a lot of effort to mine, at this time there is no way to quickly reach the river, if the Teng snake really has a move, if you want to use the lime, you have to toss it, fortunately, the Teng snake does not have much demand for the time being, if you use it, the amount will not be too large, as for the greater demand in the future, it can only pinch your nose and admit it, who is called Teng Snake near it.

It is estimated that the departure time is relatively early, and the terrain on this side of the cave is relatively high, so it only took a day and a half for everyone to return to the kite tribe, while the time was still early, Song Xuan did not continue to stay overnight, first, he wanted to return to the tribe earlier, and also avoid the embarrassment of the night as much as possible.

Even if the rain kept it again and again, the first person with something set out on the journey back.

"Oracle, can this stone really be used to build a house?"

It seems that not only Kis Yu doesn't believe it, but even Shi Meng is a little skeptical, after all, the limestone in his hand is too fragile, and some places will turn into powder if he pinches it lightly, Shi Meng is showing Song Xuan the powder in his hand.

It's not that no one in the surrounding tribes uses stones to build houses, but the stones chosen are relatively strong and large, and the houses built out are naturally very strong, but this way of building a house is some of Tefi's manpower and material resources, not to mention that building a house is a waste of time, and even searching for those stones is not an easy thing, so there are not many people who have used this kind of house for a long time, and most tribes still adopt the way of wooden structure.

However, some tribes will also use stones to enclose a knee-high circle at the bottom for reinforcement, and the Teng Snake will also strengthen the wall in a similar way.

But no matter how the stone is chosen, it is the hard kind, and the limestone in Shi Meng's hand at this time obviously does not meet this requirement.

But Song Xuan only nodded and indicated that it was indeed used to build a house, and he didn't explain the specific use to everyone.

Seeing that Song Xuan still maintained a sense of mystery, Shi Meng didn't continue to ask, and put the lime he squeezed into powder into a bowl and looked at the small bubbles bubbling up, which felt very interesting.

In his opinion, although he didn't understand it very well, since the divine envoy had said it, there would basically be no problem, even if he didn't use the Teng Snake, he didn't lose too much, and those pottery were not important things in Shi Meng's eyes.

The speed of going back was relatively fast, and everyone didn't have too many other supplies, so they went straight downstream, occasionally increasing the speed, and returned to the tribe in five and a half days.

Looking at the more than 40 acres of land that had been turned out, Song Xuan also nodded to express his satisfaction, it seems that everyone has been busy since he left these days.

However, at present, the rice fields along the river are cultivated, which is relatively less difficult, and there are not too many trees in it, and the grass roots are not particularly difficult for ploughing.

The farther you go, the more difficult it will naturally rise a lot, even if everyone has focused on cleaning up, but the roots in the ground are obviously not completely cleaned, and the primitive way in the tribe can only remove some relatively large obstacles, and in some places even the thickness of the wrist is still left in the ground, after all, there are too many such roots, and it is too troublesome to completely clean up.

Not to mention the wrist-thick roots, even if they are the thickness of the fingers, there is no way to open them with a plow, so Song Xuan's request to everyone is not to completely turn it over to the bottom and dig where it can be dug, and plow where it can be plowed, as for what is really difficult to get, that is, just take it twice casually, and strive to make it looser.

Even if only half of the land is turned out, then the increase in rice yield is very obvious, as for the roots inside, let time solve them.

"Oracle, what do we do next?"

Song Xuan envisioned at that time, however, that the entire tribe would participate in the reclamation, but at this time, after observing everyone's progress, it seemed that there was no need for this, and in ten days, everyone had solved at least one-third, although the next world would be more difficult to conquer, but it was obviously not too much of a problem to clean up before planting.

In this case, it is particularly important for the arrangement of the hunting team, it is a good thing to let them participate in the reclamation, with their joining, the speed of reclamation will inevitably increase a lot, but this kind of too time-consuming thing, let them do it, but it is a bit of a condescension.

"Leave one team behind, the others will go hunting!"

After weighing it, Song Xuan still decided to let Shi Meng and them be mainly responsible for hunting, after all, the cost of Teng Snake is still very large, and after this period of tossing, there is only more than a month left to consume the previous grain storage.

Although it can still support large-scale labor, but the risk is also huge, once there is an accident, there will be some panic in the tribe, it is better for others to spend more time or let Shi Meng and them continue to hunt, now is a good time to hunt.

Even if there are only forty or fifty people, they can basically fill in the day's work, but they can only meet the needs of one day.

In addition, some of the children brought back from fishing, and even some of the surplus, no matter how it seems to be this way, it is more secure.

"Then let Shi Yong stay?"

"No, the leaders are all out, you just choose some people to stay"

"Okay, oracle, I'll consult with a few of them......"

The role of the leader in hunting is still very large, and it is very important to grasp the overall situation and the scheduling of personnel, especially when hunting more dangerous animals, and relatively speaking, the strength of the leader will be stronger.

They will be the first to rush to the front when hunting, and they can also play a leading role in improving morale. Hunting and fighting are not too much the same, and having a heroic leader is always a good thing.

It is the same whether there is a leader or not in digging in the tribe, anyway, everyone will not be lazy, and Song Xuan is also on the side, looking at the hunting, Song Xuan thinks that he is not as good as Shi Meng and the others, but he is still better than them in terms of life.

Let them choose to let those who are slightly worse in hunting performance stay, since they have chosen the main force to stay outside and go out to hunt, the stronger the ability, the better.

This year can have such a change, Yangyang their participation in it also played a very important role, because they have been coming to Teng Snake for more than two months, it can be clearly seen that everyone in the sheep tribe is recovering well.

It's not as thin as it was when I first arrived, and although I haven't been able to recover to my best yet, I don't have any ambiguity about doing normal work.

It may be difficult to get them to keep up with the pace of the snake's hunting, but these tasks in the tribe are indeed no problem for them, and they can handle them easily.

However, even if they were still busy in the fields, Song Xuan would let them take some time out from time to time to get used to the weapons of the Teng Snake, especially the bow and arrow sling.

Both of these are very experienced, and it is difficult to get started in a short period of time, if they don't train now, when the rice is planted later, and they are really allowed to hunt, there will not be much time for them to learn, and then they will become a laggard in the team.

As for the other weapons, it is not a problem for Yang Yang, and the one on the Teng Snake side is obviously easier to use.

Since there were too many new gadgets on Teng Snake's side, Song Xuan couldn't let them all master them at once, so he could only pick the first training that could be used soon.

Although the people who stayed in the tribe were slightly worse at the use of various weapons, they were more than enough to guide Yangyang.

Even Song Xuan is not a problem, although Song Xuan rarely participates in actual combat, but he is not ambiguous in training, and he has not put in much effort, although the use of various weapons is not top-notch in the tribe, it can also be ranked in the middle of the stream, and the bow and arrow even faintly have the strength to reach the top handful of people.

Although it usually does not show its water, its strength should not be underestimated, which is naturally because in such an era, if it is still as weak as when you first came, it is really difficult to be a tribe with you, especially the strength of Teng Snake is growing rapidly, and new people are constantly joining in.

Although Song Xuan's image is maintained well, hard work is the most intuitive thing in this era, and Song Xuan doesn't want to be the strongest, but at least he has to be able to get it.

Actual combat may still be lacking, but there is no problem in using it to bluff people.

Of course, Teng Snake's side naturally wouldn't let Song Xuan take the risk of charging into battle, or fighting with fierce beasts, even if this happened, first of all, it was more of a command, but it was always useful to enhance his strength.

The four leaders re-agreed on the manpower of the hunting team, and now we are still in the hunting team, we are relatively strong, we can be said to be walking like flying in the mountains and forests, and we are relatively proficient in various weapons.

They went out hunting to naturally ensure the maximum efficiency, as for all the other manpower was left in the tribe and was responsible for digging the ground, Song Xuan also made some adjustments to the manpower according to Shi Ban's feedback these days.

There are those who are specifically responsible for use, similar to those who carry out preliminary excavation, and those who are specifically responsible for using plows for further reclamation, and at the same time, two people are specially assigned to help Shi Yan and Shui Wu mow the grass.

The new cow and two deer have also entered the reclamation team, six branches of the road and three cows, the daily consumption is not a small number, especially now that they are fed, they are all fresh forage, out of the reclamation, naturally there is no time for them to leisurely look for their own leisure, and come back when they are full.

It's morning, and before everyone can start moving, go get some grass and let them eat well, and when it's time to officially pull the plow, they won't have an empty stomach.

I'll also get some over when I take a break to help them replenish it.

As for the children in the tribe who are still in charge of fishing, it is obviously too difficult to let them dig the ground, and the physical strength and endurance required for this job are not small, and the children in the tribe are still too difficult to get it at present.

Some of the children of the sand sculptures can naturally come to get it, but the fishing side also needs someone to help, and they will not play much role here, so it is better to still complete their old job and get more fish back, and everyone will eat more comfortably.

Doing this kind of heavy work and tiring work, the requirements for diet are still very high, and there are basically big fish and meat every day.

The wild mushrooms and bamboo shoots collected before, the proportion of this time is relatively small, although the taste is also good, but it is slightly insufficient to supplement physical strength, far less than fish, meat to come to the truth, after the work or a bowl of happy, full of meat broth is the most pleasant.
