The Xiaoxi Tribe is a complete tribe, different from the Bo Tribe and the Wandering Tribe.
If they want the Creek Tribe to join their tribe, they must demonstrate the strength of their tribe. This time they must catch more prey than before.
The Creek Tribe and the Wandering Tribe may not be able to save enough food for all of them to survive the winter, so the Green Mountain Tribe must prepare their share and take it out when necessary.
Of course, it would be best if they could all join the tribe before winter.
Meng Yuqing nodded. "I understand. One day, I will ensure that all the people in my tribe have enough food to live a life that everyone envies. Then you won't have to work so hard anymore."
Xuan smiled and said gently, "You've done a lot. At least even if something goes wrong with the autumn hunt this year, we don't have to worry about people starving to death, right?"
He pulled Meng Yuqing aside and sat down, “If one day our tribe becomes the one that everyone envies, we will work even harder.
We must fight and train more rigorously than we do now to protect our tribe from being harmed by anyone.
Other tribes may not know this, but in our tribe, one month before reaching adulthood, all sub-beasts are taken out of their patrol area by their fathers and taken to the dangerous wilderness for three days. Of course, there are also five orcs who secretly follow them to prevent any accidents, but they never let the sub-beast know.
He raised his head and looked at the sky. "We will protect the sub-beasts, but we also need to let them know the dangers of this continent. Father Beast said that he once went to the market and heard about a sub-beast in a tribe that was slightly larger than ours. Because he had been protected so well since childhood, he thought the outside world was as safe as the tribe. So, he imitated the orcs and secretly ran away after he grew up. When they found him, only his remains were left."
"That sub-beast was very clever. He took advantage of the fact that his father went hunting and didn't come back at night, and his father was asleep again, to bypass the orcs on night watch and escape. The orcs on night watch had no idea that a sub-beast would want to escape at night. Even if they smelled his scent in the tribe, they would only think he was out for a walk because he couldn't sleep. Normally, a sub-beast wouldn't leave the tribe without an orc by its side."
"So after hearing about this, the father beast came back and made this decision. After all, if the sub-beast insisted on sneaking out alone, the orcs in the tribe would not be able to stop it."
Meng Yuqing looked at Xuan and suddenly remembered that this was not the world he grew up in. This world was full of dangers, and the orcs had to ensure the strength of their military power.
Fortunately, I was a bit timid. When I first came to this world, I was scared by those big birds. During the few days I spent with Xuan Ye, I was really obedient and didn't wander around. I stayed in the cave honestly.
After returning to the tribe, I was so excited when I heard that Xuan was willing to take me to the patrol area.
Perhaps in Xuan's eyes at that time, he was also a sub-beast who was well protected and unaware of the danger.
So on the way to the salt cave, when leaving the patrol area, Xuan specifically emphasized the danger.
Having grown up in a peaceful environment, Meng Yuqing has a sense of crisis, but it is not deep enough.
"The Yellowstone tribe was squeezed out by some large tribes." Xuan said suddenly.
"Ah?" Meng Yuqing was stunned. How did they suddenly end up in the Yellowstone tribe?
He used to be the one who jumped the topic, but Xuan's sudden move caught him off guard.
"Hahahaha." Xuan laughed out loud when he saw his reaction. When Meng Yuqing jumped the topic like this for the first time, his reaction was similar, but he didn't express it so directly.
Meng Yuqing came back to his senses and immediately realized what Xuan was laughing at. He looked at Xuan fiercely, imitating the orc's bared teeth expression.
Xuan laughed even louder.
"Stop laughing and tell me what happened to the Yellowstone tribe!" Meng Yu was angry and embarrassed.
"Okay, okay, don't be angry." Xuan restrained his laughter, but there was still a smile in his eyes. "Their tribe is going to have a witch, but it's too early compared to other tribes, so they are ostracizing them."
Meng Yuqing was speechless. "Are they..." He pointed to his head. "They are sick."
"Yeah, that's what our tribe all thinks. The Shuilin tribe should also think that they..." Xuan imitated Meng Yuqing's movements and pointed to his head, "They're sick."
"However, although he is sick, I can understand him." Xuan changed the subject.
"What do you mean?" Meng Yuqing asked.
Then Xuan recounted how the witch appeared in the southern tribe.
After listening to this, Meng Yuqing was silent for a moment, then nodded. "You're right, this is human nature, but fortunately, some tribes have chosen not to do so."
There is no shortage of cases of suppressing potential newcomers.
"Is this our chance?" he asked Xuan.
"Maybe, but we'll have to wait until the next market."
The next day, the Shijiao tribe left. Before leaving, Jian walked up to Xuan and said, "Next year, if there's a chance, I want to compete with you."
"Okay, see you next year." Xuan agreed happily.
Meng Yuqing did not go to send the people from the Shijiao tribe away, but instead went to find the disabled orcs who had previously made bricks, and asked them to grind all the salt stones in the tribe in preparation for making bacon.
After arranging the salt, he brought some sub-beasts and taught them how to cut animal skins according to the prepared patterns.
These are people transferred from the plantation. There are really not many people free now. All kinds of fruits in the patrol area are ripe, and all kinds of edible plants seem to have grown overnight.
These can be considered as food that can be picked up for free, so a collection team was organized to collect these foods. Everyone tacitly agreed to stop taking turns to rest, and everyone got busy.
Thirty cotton gins have been put into use, processing cotton and removing cotton seeds from morning to night every day. When passing by the open space, you can always hear the creaking sound of the wooden machines.
The cotton had been exposed to the sun before. There was no other way. Meng Yuqing really couldn't make a dryer now, so he could only expose it to the sun. Everything was kept simple.
In order to prevent sudden rain in the middle of drying, they specifically consulted the elders in the tribe before deciding on the drying time.
As for the cotton-fluffing tool, it is made directly of animal tendons and wood. The system is quite conscientious. When you exchange it for a cotton gin, you will be given the production drawings of the cotton-fluffing tool.
Now, cotton-picking has become Yashou's favorite job.
