"What should I do to sleep at night? I can't sleep in the stream at night."
Meng Yuqing covered his eyes in pain. This was not the hottest time yet.
He had secretly asked the system and found out that the current temperature was as high as 40 degrees Celsius, and it could reach 48 degrees Celsius at the hottest time.
If his body hadn't been strengthened by the system, he was really worried that he wouldn't be able to survive this summer.
The hottest temperature in the city where he used to live was only 42 or 43 degrees Celsius, and that only lasted for a day or two, but the high temperature in this world can last for more than half a month.
At this moment, he missed the air conditioning in the modern world very much.
"Didn't you see what our tribe brought to trade? Before we had salt caves, we used to trade the leaves of stream trees for salt with the three major tribes. The leaves of stream trees are cool and very comfortable."
Xuan looked at Meng Yuqing in surprise. He didn't expect that Meng Yuqing had never checked the goods brought to the tribe.
Hearing his words, Meng Yuqing instantly perked up, "Stream tree? The leaves are icy cold?"
Xuan tilted his head, thinking about how to describe the touch of the stream water and leaves, "Yes, lying on them feels almost the same as lying in the stream."
"That's great. I was worried that I wouldn't be able to sleep at night because of the heat." Meng Yuqing breathed a sigh of relief.
"You are too hot to sleep now. You used to sleep on my back when we were on the road before, but you haven't slept at all in the past few days." Xuan rolled on the ground and changed his position. The previous place he lay on was already hot and he felt very uncomfortable.
"How do you know I was sleeping? Did you see it?" Seeing Xuan rolling around, Meng Yuqing became restless.
"I felt it." Xuan, who had moved to a new position, squinted his eyes and yawned.
Meng Yuqing moved closer to him, hesitated for a while but still didn't go over. He was already very hot, and Xuan would only be hotter than him.
"The father beast is not going to rest tonight and wants to hurry back to the tribe overnight. The people in the tribe we are traveling with are not in good health. If this continues, their sub-beasts may get sick. You should take this opportunity to rest more now. You will definitely not be able to sleep if I carry you on my back at night."
Xuan said as he closed his eyes.
Seeing that Xuan was ready to rest, Meng Yuqing stopped talking to him. After all, he was the one traveling at night, and she just needed to sit firmly on his back.
In the evening, after everyone had eaten something, Xia announced that they would not rest at night. They would take advantage of the lower temperature at night and speed up to rush back to the tribe.
Meng Yuqing, who was lying on Xuan's back, couldn't resist the sleepiness and fell asleep on Xuan's back in the second half of the night.
When he was woken up by Xuan in the morning, he found that they had already arrived at the entrance of the tribe.
"Didn't you say you would come back from behind the tribe?" He propped himself up and sat up, touching his neck and chest, which were all wet with sweat. A large patch of hair on his back was also wet.
He smoothed the hair on Xuan's back somewhat embarrassedly, as it was wet with his sweat.
"We've come around. Bo is going to pick up the other tribesmen. The Creek Tribe and the wandering tribe also need to be settled." He paused, "Let them live in front of the tribe so they can feel at ease."
Meng Yuqing nodded in understanding, which made the Qingshan tribe feel more at ease. The tribe's refuge cave was on the mountain behind them, and their tribe's storage warehouse was also close to the mountain behind them, but it was not in the same direction as the refuge cave.
Fei and Yang had already brought people to the door to pick them up. Xuan's four friends were also there. They followed Fei and Yang and made all kinds of exaggerated expressions towards Xuan and Meng Yuqing.
Meng Yuqing found it a little funny, and the tense spirit that had been tense all the way finally relaxed at this moment. He was going home!
Although nothing major happened along the way, the most dangerous thing was the attack by the Graystone Tribe.
However, dealing with the Yellowstone tribe at the market, exchanging things with other tribes, secretly trading pottery, and discovering human trafficking made him extremely nervous.
He remembered that he was a nobody before he came into this world.
Xia walked up to Fei and Yang and briefly explained the situation of the Creek Tribe and the Wandering Tribe. "The Creek Tribe will stay with us for a while, and they may leave here and return to their previous location next spring."
Xia's words were rather vague, but that didn't stop Yang and Fei from immediately understanding what he meant. After all, they were all leaders of the tribe, and they knew a lot about Xia's thoughts and intentions.
But they all support it. The old patriarch chose Xia to be the patriarch among the three people because Xia is ambitious, capable, and not blind. The most important point is that the other two people believe in him very much, and Xia did not disappoint them.
"As for that wandering tribe, we are not particularly familiar with them, so let them live here first, just like before." Xia mentioned the wandering tribe again, just like before, meaning that just treat them like they treated Bo before.
"Then Bo and the others will move into the tribe in the next few days. When they do, we'll have someone take them to familiarize themselves with the tribe. Once they've built their own houses and settled in, Lan will incorporate them into the hunting team. You should also be prepared for the patrol."
When Xia finished saying this, a system notification sounded in Meng Yuqing's mind.
"The Qingshan Tribe has successfully increased its external population by thirty-eight people. Host, please continue your efforts."
He counted the number of people, and it was exactly the remaining people from Bo's tribe, thirty orcs plus Linghuan and his eight sub-beasts.
Very good, one step closer to upgrading.
Behind them, the people from the Creek Tribe and the Wandering Tribe looked at Xia who was talking to Fei and Yang at the tribe gate.
When they were on the mountain before, they saw the entire tribe from a distance. It was much larger than their own tribe, and the Xiaoxi tribe was even more shocked.
They had always known that the Qingshan tribe was larger than theirs, but they had never expected it to be so big. The tribe occupied a larger area and had a larger territory than their own tribe, not to mention the number of people.
I'm afraid there are about a thousand people. A tribe of a thousand people is a very large tribe compared to many small tribes.
And every orc in the Qingshan tribe is much stronger than them.
Before, they thought that Xia and his men had specially selected the strongest orcs in the tribe to go to the market, but now it seems that it is not the case. The ones they brought with them might just be ordinary members of the tribe.
Ke's gaze fell on Yang. He could feel that Yang was very powerful, even though he had a limp in one leg. He knew that even if he sent the three most powerful orcs in his tribe together, they would not be able to defeat him.
There is also Xia's child, the black panther orc named Xuan. Most of the time, he would carry the sub-beast on his back and talk at a relatively low position.
But from the first moment he saw him, he felt a very dangerous aura, which was even more terrifying than the feeling Yang gave him. He was afraid that even ten of them together could not defeat him, and this beast had just reached adulthood.
