Chapter 261: Unable to withstand such drought



When Jiang Xue and Xiaobai found the calf, the calf had already been eaten clean by wild beasts.

Jiang Xue felt a little distressed when she saw this. After all, this was the first calf born in the tribe, but she didn't expect that it would die prematurely due to human error.

Although she felt sad, Jiang Xue still decisively took Xiaobai away from here.

When Mu Feng and the others rushed up the mountain, Jiang Xue was walking down the mountain.

Mu Feng breathed a sigh of relief when he saw Jiang Xue standing in front of him safe and sound.

He said to Jiang Xue with some dissatisfaction: "Axue, why didn't you tell me you were leaving?"

Jiang Xue knew what he was worried about, but she didn't say anything. She just said, "Let's go. There's no need to look for Xiao Niu."

Seeing her expression, Mu Feng had a guess in his mind, but he didn't say anything: "Okay, let's go down the mountain quickly."

When they returned to the tribe, Xiaohua came forward happily. When she saw Jiang Xue's wooden face, she immediately understood something.

The Mavericks are gone.

She immediately blamed herself and started crying.

This was her mistake. If she wants to cry, let her cry.

Jiang Xue had no time to take care of her. The things she found had to be put away and dried in the sun, especially the cotton. They had to remove the seeds from them as soon as possible.

These things are related to next year's cotton cloth or quilt plan, so we can't miss them.

Because the amount of cotton is so small, we don’t know how much yarn we can produce if we spin it into yarn.

More importantly, Jiang Xue currently has no experience.

Although she had a loom, she had no spinning wheel.

If you want to weave cotton into cloth, the first step is naturally to spin the cotton into thread.

After finishing the things in her hands, Jiang Xue asked Akagi without even looking at Xiaohua: "Akagi, have you guys finished dealing with those ramie skins?"

Akagi nodded: "We've peeled off everything that needs to be peeled. We didn't know what to do next, so we left them alone and waited for you to come back."

Jiang Xue hummed, "Where is it? I'll go take a look."

Ramie skin is a very useful thing in the tribe at this stage, and there can be no mistakes.

Since Jiang Xue did not tell them what to do after peeling the skin, but they had made hemp ropes with ramie skin before, they had already washed away the flesh on the ramie skin, leaving only the ramie fibers.

After being dried for so many days, the ramie fibers had already dried out, so Jiang Xue soaked the ramie fibers in the ditch.

Because she was afraid that they would be washed away by the water, Jiang Xue specially placed a big stone on top of them.

Then, it will be easy.

Jiang Xue directly exchanged for a spinning wheel in the system.

One spinning wheel certainly cannot meet the daily needs of the tribe. Jiang Xue still wants to use the old method - use this spinning wheel as a sample and let the carpenters in the group follow suit and make a few more.

Fortunately, the structure of the spinning wheel is relatively simple, and Jiang Xue has mysterious confidence in the bobbins of the carpentry group.

The next day, as expected, was another sunny day.

According to Jiang Xue's calculations, it should be autumn now. Autumn is known as the "autumn tiger", so it is normal for the weather to be good.

But it’s too dry!

Neither animals nor plants can withstand such hot weather, let alone them.

Since Jiang Xue had made preparations in advance, there was no shortage of water in the rice fields, but they still lacked fertilizer.

The most serious consequence of the drought is the rampant mosquito infestation.

The rice has not yet reached ears, but the leaves have already been attacked by various pests.

Jiang Xue frowned and ignored the ramie soaked in water. She asked everyone to carry backpacks into the rice fields to cut weeds and catch pests.

Pests will definitely not be discarded casually. The tribe feeds chickens, and these high-protein mollusks have always been the favorite of chickens.

Just as they were working excitedly in the fields, Sang Yang finally arrived with the Bashan people.

Upon hearing the news, Jiang Xue and the others stopped working in the fields, washed their feet, and went to pick up the people.

But what Jiang Xue didn't expect was that among the crowd of Bashan people, she actually saw the lingering people of the Yang tribe again.

Jiang Xue really didn't have any good feelings towards Yang Jiu, and even if she did, they were completely exhausted by his magical operation.

"Why are you with the Bashan people?"

Jiang Xue frowned and asked unhappily.

Yang Jiu glanced at her cautiously and said, "Xue Wu, we have already been incorporated into the Bashan tribe. No matter which tribe the Bashan tribe merges into, we will automatically follow suit."

Seeing his smug look, Jiang Xue was furious.

She glared at Sang Yang: "Sang Yang, what's wrong with you? You were about to merge your entire tribe into our Snake Tribe, so why did you accept people from other tribes in the middle of the process?"

Sang Yang had no choice but to tell the truth: "They said they were willing to be our slaves, and I thought, we already have so many slaves in our tribe, a dozen more wouldn't be too much."

Jiang Xue almost gritted her teeth and said, "You are so generous!"

If possible, she really didn't want to let the people of the Yang tribe get their wish.

But now that things have come to this, they are determined to stick to me like a dog-skin plaster. What else can I do?

Drive all the people of the Bashan tribe back?

That would only hurt the harmony between the two ethnic groups.

Sang Yang looked at her in confusion. Sang Feng stepped forward, pulled him aside and said something to him. Only then did Sang Yang look at Yang Jiu in shock.

He walked over to Yang Jiu with a gloomy face and said, "I never thought that not a single word you told me was true." Sang Yang straightened his back and said, "Go away. We don't need you here."
