Whether Ah Qing believed what Jiang Xue said or not was not within her consideration. Anyway, Mu Feng said the same thing in the tribe, so she just had to go along with what he said.
Ah Qing left quickly and came back even faster.
Behind her, there were more than a dozen people, some holding axes, some holding dustpans, and some holding hoes.
Jiang Xue looked a little stunned.
The charcoal hasn't even started burning yet, how come so many people have come all of a sudden?
After everyone came to her, Jiang Xue gave the order: "Those holding knives, go chop wood with Sang Yang. Sang Yang will tell you how big and thick the wood should be."
"He who has the dustpan, go to the woods and rake some pine needles into this pit."
"Those with hoes can loosen the soil around here first."
At Jiang Xue's command, they began to work enthusiastically.
There's strength in numbers. The wood Jiang Xue had chopped that day was quickly reduced to a pile of broken wood by the swarm of people. Fortunately, Jiang Xue had been preparing for charcoal burning. If it were the wood she had chopped that day, there wouldn't be enough for them to chop.
From the moment she decided to start making charcoal, she had been arranging for people to cut down trees and then drag them to the open space at the foot of the mountain to dry them. After so many days, the amount of wood drying at the foot of the mountain was quite considerable.
Dry wood is much easier to split than wet wood, and most of them have strong muscles. Although not everyone has eight-pack abs, they are almost there.
Asking them to do this kind of work is really too easy.
In a short while, the firewood they chopped had piled up into a small hill.
There were quite a lot of pine needles at the bottom of the pit, almost enough to cover half of it. Jiang Xue then asked them to use a dustpan to carry the chopped wood and throw it in.
The pile was piled up to a point, and Jiang Xue finally lit a fire at the fire starter.
At first there was no reaction, only green smoke floating above the firewood. Soon, a flame burst out of the pit and the fire grew bigger and bigger. After the fire was obviously smaller, Jiang Xue asked them to dig soil and pour it on top.
Only after all the firewood was sealed did she take a look inside the fire start path and then had it sealed.
Then they left the charcoal burning to time, and all they had to do was wait.
"Okay, let's go back and come back tomorrow."
After Jiang Xue finished speaking, she picked up her backpack and led everyone back to the tribe.
After a busy day, Jiang Xue didn't have time to sign in. After she called "Random sign in," the system responded: [Please go to the brickyard to sign in.]
Jiang Xue walked outside again without thinking.
[Successful sign-in, 290 consecutive sign-ins, 290 achievement points, and an additional bamboo bed.]
[Since the host has signed in for 290 consecutive days, an additional copy of the Poison Sutra will be awarded.]
Jiang Xue frowned, "Poison Sutra"?
Although the system hasn't rewarded me with books for a long time, books like "The Poison Sutra" are obviously not serious books.
I hope I don’t need it!
Just as she was about to go home, the system started to trick her again:
[New mission to defend the homeland has started! ]
[The Bluebird Tribe has joined forces with the other three tribes to launch an attack on the Snake Tribe. Please be prepared to defend yourself!]
There is also a rare line of introduction below:
Because the host killed Xiaodao, the young leader of the Bluebird Tribe, and then had Ah Er persuade Aunt Qingshi and Ah San to join the Snake Tribe, the Bluebird Tribe leader harbored resentment. Furthermore, the Bashan Tribe sold nearly half as much salt as usual at the flea market, further displeased the Bluebird Tribe leader. At his instigation, he will unite with the Blackwater Tribe, the Flying Tiger Tribe, and the Crazy Sand Tribe, totaling 307 people, to launch a frenzied attack on the Snake Tribe in the near future. Please prepare for battle!
When Jiang Xue heard this, she was completely stunned.
The four tribes launched a siege on the Snake Tribe, directly dispatching more than half of the Snake Tribe's entire population?!
This is a tough battle!
It was just that the system was a bit tricky, and didn't tell me when they would arrive, just vaguely using the word "soon." The system rarely gave me missions, and missions like this one involving fighting were even rarer!
This is a big deal. Other things can be put aside, but she definitely can't let this one go!
She quickly returned to the tribe and began to check the recent results of iron smelting.
Fortunately, they have already refined iron and made several iron spears. Compared with other tribes that are still using stone spears and stone knives, they are far superior to them in terms of weapons alone. What's more, the people of the Snake Tribe can be said to be soldiers now. Even old men like Asongbo who seem to have no killing power, and women like Cao Mama who seem harmless, all have one or two martial arts skills.
She was not afraid that they would not come, but she was afraid that after they came, there would not be enough people for them to kill!
But no matter what happens, you can't be careless, especially when it comes to fighting.
The first thing to do is to ensure the protection of the crops and livestock in the tribe, and secondly, to prevent the people of the Bluebird Tribe from cheating.
She didn't forget what method Xiaodao used when he came to rob her!
This time, she absolutely couldn't let them use the same method against her again!
Thinking of this, Jiang Xue opened the system and took a look. She hadn't exchanged anything in the system for a long time. This time, in order to prevent them from using the same method against her again, she had to exchange a batch of the detoxification pills no matter how expensive they were!
She opened the search engine and typed in the word "detoxification". Instantly, more than a dozen detoxification products and pills appeared in the system.
She only wanted the elixir, and everything else was automatically filtered out.
Soon, she took a fancy to a pill called "Detoxification Pill".
This kind of elixir has no grade and is cheap. You can exchange it for a bottle with just 50 achievement points.
Considering the previous experience of exchanging pills, this kind of pill should only cost 5 achievement points per pill!
That's it!
Jiang Xue exchanged for fifteen bottles without saying a word, which only cost her 750 achievement points.
At dinner time, she slowly spoke, "The gods have given us guidance. Soon, the Bluebird Tribe will join forces with the Blackwater Tribe, the Flying Tiger Tribe, and the Crazy Sand Tribe, totaling 307 people, to attack our tribe. Everyone must remain vigilant when going out these days."
"Especially the hunting and mining teams. Both of you teams have to go out every day. If you encounter anyone suspicious, no matter how pitiful they say they are, you must not let your guard down."
Jiang Xue's sudden words surprised everyone in the Snake Tribe.
"Axue, are you sure this is true?"
Jiang Xue nodded vigorously. "Of course. You may not believe me, but you must, like me, maintain the highest respect for the gods. If the gods become angry, the few people in our tribe will not be enough to stand up to them."
