After pulling out four lotus roots from the water in a row, Han Chengcai went ashore with a feeling of unsatisfied satisfaction.

If possible, Han Cheng wouldn't mind hanging out here for a while.

Such a wish is impossible to realize this time. After all, their primary purpose this time is to explore the island in the lake, not to touch the lotus roots.

Wu and the others are still waiting on the shore. If he doesn't leave for a long time, they will be worried.

After he got ashore, the others also went ashore. They stood by the water and washed the mud off their bodies and legs. Han Cheng wiped his feet on the grass nearby and put on his shoes.

“W-What is this?!”

At this time, a man screamed and looked at his legs in horror.

When he was cleaning the mud off his legs, he suddenly saw half of a yellow-brown bug on his left leg, and the other half had drilled into his leg!

I hurriedly reached out to grab it and pull it, but the worm was soft, slippery and very strong. I pulled the worm in pieces, but the part of the worm that had burrowed into the flesh did not come out!

Dark red blood flowed out from the severed insect's body and spread down his legs.

This kind of thing scared him so much that he started shouting in panic.

Han Cheng, who had just put on his shoes, was startled by the sudden shout and thought that a monster had jumped out of the lake.

He hurried over to ask, and after seeing the half worm in the man's hand and his bleeding calf, he suddenly breathed a sigh of relief.

This is just a leech, not a water monster.

“God, Son of God, it’s broken, it’s drilled into my flesh, it can’t get out…”

The man was so frightened that his face turned pale and he stuttered as he looked at Han Cheng as if he was about to cry.

This is really scary, especially for people who don't know much about leeches.

Will it suck blood and burrow into the flesh and reproduce inside, then suck more blood, drain the blood from the person and eat the flesh...

You can't think about such things. Just thinking about them will make you feel infinitely terrified. It is even more terrifying than facing a hungry wolf or a tiger alone.

"It's okay, don't worry, let me do it."

Han Cheng told the man not to worry, then walked up to him, lifted one foot, took off the shoe, held the shoe in his hand, and slapped the man's leg with the soles twice, hitting the bleeding spot.

Then, under the watchful eyes of everyone, a miracle happened.

The worm that was originally stuck in the leg and couldn't be taken out fell off the man's leg and landed in the grass after the Son of God's two soles pulled it.

The man, whose face was originally pale with fear, suddenly became happy when he saw this. Looking at his legs that were red and had marks from the soles of shoes after being beaten by Han Cheng, he not only did not feel the pain, but his face was full of joy.

The old primitive man, whose legs are young but not old and who can run faster than some reporters, opened his eyes wide with a look of surprise on his face after seeing this scene, and at the same time, he touched the soles of his shoes.

It turns out that in addition to the functions we knew before, this shoe sole has such a wonderful use! This is really a good thing!

Thinking of this, I suddenly began to pay more attention to the shoes on my feet.

When screening the people who were arriving on the island for the first time, although Han Cheng said that older people should not follow, people like the old primitive man who were in good health were naturally an exception.

"This thing is called a leech, and it likes to suck blood. People who already have some small cuts on their legs are more likely to be attracted to leeches, and leeches also like to suck blood from small cuts.

But don’t worry, if this thing is sucked into the flesh, two shoe soles can whip it out, or if you don’t have shoe soles, you can just slap it with your palms.”

After Han Cheng put on his shoes, he looked at everyone and said.

This matter must be made clear. This will reduce people's panic about leeches. Secondly, after dispelling this fear, we can lay the foundation for digging lotus roots later.

Otherwise, people will be worried when they come to dig lotus roots next time.

In order to further dispel people's fear of leeches, Han Cheng also conducted an experiment - fishing for leeches.

He squatted on the shore of the lake, stretched out one hand, and kept scooping up the water and pouring it down, or stirring it constantly to make it make a sound. After about four or five minutes, leeches swam over from other places.

In front of everyone, Han Cheng reached out and caught a leech that was swimming towards him, and explained to everyone that leeches cannot grow on the palm of the hand, which has no pores.

After a while, Han Cheng casually broke off a thin grass stem from the side.

Pinch the leech used as a test subject between the thumb and index finger, then use the thin grass stem held in the other hand to push up against one end of the leech. At the same time, use the hand holding the leech to push down slightly, and the whole leech will be turned over and pierced on the grass stem.

Under the gaze of everyone, after doing these things, Han Cheng casually inserted the leech, which was turned over and pierced on the grass stem, into the ground.

It won't take long before the leech becomes a dried leech under the sun and wind...

"When the waves roar, the leeches swarm." This is a saying that people in Han Cheng's hometown say in later life. The principle may be related to the leeches' sense of touch or something like that. Anyway, in the water where leeches live, if you continue to stir the water in one place, the leeches will come over after a while.

Han Cheng is really not afraid of leeches. From his skillful movements of catching leeches and then turning them over and sticking them on the ground to dry, we can roughly know that quite a few leeches had fallen into his hands in the past.

After Han Cheng's explanation and his personal demonstration of catching leeches with bare hands and threading them onto grass stems, everyone's fear of this terrible insect that can burrow half of its body into human flesh and suck blood was dissipated a lot.

There were even many people who imitated Han Cheng's actions, squatting by the water, stirring the water constantly with their hands to attract leeches, scooping them up with their hands, and piercing them with grass stems and sticking them in the ground.

It didn't take much effort to kill seven or eight leeches.

Seeing that everyone was no longer afraid of these leeches, Han Cheng smiled and asked people to wash the lotus roots that had just been found with water and pile them under the shade of the trees. After they had toured the entire island and had a general understanding of it, they would take the lotus roots away.

It would be too troublesome to take it with me on the road now.

Continuing along the edge of the island, the direction has changed from west to south.

After walking nearly two hundred meters to the south, the large area of ​​lotus roots finally reached the edge.

Han Cheng made a rough estimate and found that this lotus root area was at least ten acres.

Lotus roots are very productive. All the lotus ponds in this area have been dug up, and the amount of lotus roots obtained has been measured in tens of thousands of kilograms.

"Ha ha……"

Even though he was dozens of meters away from the lotus roots, Han Cheng still couldn't help laughing out loud.

At the same time, I am looking forward to the next trip and hope to discover more surprises on this island.

Of course, even if there were no other harvests, these lotus roots alone would be enough to make him happy.

Han Cheng has made a decision. When he returns to the main tribe from here, he will get some lotus roots and bring them back to bury them in the potholes around the main tribe.

Lotus roots reproduce very quickly. In less than two years, the main tribe will be able to produce a lot of lotus roots.

With anticipation and good mood, Han Cheng and his group continued to move forward.

As we walked south, the terrain began to rise and become steeper, making it difficult to walk.

Moreover, the lake water at the edge of the island became bottomless.

For safety reasons, Han Cheng asked people to move further inside the island instead of walking along the edge of the island as before.

“Flutter!”

After walking forward for a while, we heard the sound of flapping wings. The branches and leaves shook for a moment, and we didn't know how many birds flapped their wings and flew away from here.

As the flock of birds flew up, some bird feathers, fallen leaves, and scattered gray and white bird droppings fell from the sky.

Among the people who came with Han Cheng, one or two were also tricked.

Smelling this strong smell and looking at the forest covered with bird droppings, even the most ferocious primitive people would not have the heart to step on this carpet full of smell and walk through the forest.

The one or two people who were hit by the bombs from the air were wiping the fresh bird droppings off their bodies with leaves they had picked up, while angrily cursing those damn birds.

Han Cheng couldn't help but sniff. It turned out that life would never be smooth sailing!

I hadn't even gotten over the joy of getting the lotus root when I encountered a minefield everywhere.

However, this rather depressed mood did not last long.

The next moment, Han Cheng's eyes lit up as he looked at the bird droppings.

This really isn’t a minefield, but a real good thing!

These are all top-quality waste materials!

As the area of ​​arable land in the tribe continues to expand, fertilizers are no longer enough.

虽然青雀部落如今的人有不少，大大小小，足有一千余口，而且除了这些之外还鹿群、羊群、猪、兔子、鸡、鸭、鹅等等东西存在，每天都在不停的造粪。

可即便是这众多的造粪机器每天都在持续不断的努力着，但还是架不住青雀部落的土地多。

所以一直到现在，青雀部落的肥料都处在比较紧缺的状态。

这时候这里出现了这众多的鸟粪，对于部落而言，这简直就是最好的礼物了！

韩成心里这样开怀的想着，旋即从一旁折断一截树枝，开始在这里捅鸟粪。

主要是想要看看这里的鸟粪有多厚。

在边缘这里用树枝试探了一阵儿，掀起了一块，差不多得有三十厘米左右。

更深处的韩成没有去试探，不过一定比边缘处厚是真的。

这一片林地之中，除了生长的树木之外，很少有草生长。

一方面是树林遮挡了阳光，另外一方面就是鸟粪太多、太厚，没有土壤，草生长不起来……

“看！看！”

在韩成他们刚刚来到岛屿之上林地边缘，为这里的大片鸟粪的壮观景象而震惊的时候，待在野鸭湖岸边的坡地上、眼睛一直盯着岛屿这里的小豌豆，指着岛屿的方向，兴奋的喊叫了起来。

此时，正有着一片乌云从湖中的岛屿上升腾而起，然后迅速的朝着湖泊的更深飘去。

那被韩成他们一行给惊起的、栖息在岛屿上的鸟。

看着这乌云一样往别处飘去的鸟儿，巫也非常的高兴，因为这说明神子他们已经来到了岛屿之上，中途没有出现什么岔子。

这么久都没有得到神子他们的消息，巫还有岸上的其他人都是忍不住的担心，这时候看到了这些腾空而起的鸟，提着的心一下子就放了下来。

而后就开始以一种比较闲适的心情，等待韩成他们的归来。

至于能够从岛屿上得到什么收获这些的，巫他们根本就没有想，只想着上面没有危险就行。

在这样的等待里，岛屿之上，听到了韩成提起用这里的鸟粪来给地里施肥之后，跟随着的其余人，看着这些鸟粪，也都变得格外兴奋起来。

是啊，这么多的鸟粪，可是能够肥很多田的！

又在这里呆了一会儿也，以韩成为首的这群人，才显得有些不舍的从这里离开。

对着这么多的鸟粪恋恋不舍，这样的事情，怕只有他们这群人才能做的出来。

本来按照韩成的打算，是沿着比较靠近岛屿西侧边缘的地方，直接一路来到岛屿的最南方的。

如今有了这样的一大片林地，以及林地里面众多的鸟粪拦路，这个想法只能被迫改变了。

不是没有人提议直接从这里穿过去，只是看着那厚厚的、遍地都是的鸟粪，韩成终究还是没能下去这个脚。

在原地犹豫了一会儿之后，开始沿着这片林子的北部边缘，往东面行去。

大约走了有三里地的距离，这种林子渐渐稀疏，同时这里距离岛屿的东部边缘也不远了。

韩成他们就从这里往南面而去。

因为这里的树木比较稀疏的缘故，地上的鸟粪也不怎么多，可以放心的通行。

这里的林子稀疏，是因为地上分布的石头多，韩成他们一路走过去，地上少见土壤，都是那种比较平整的、连成一片的石板。

“咕噜噜……”

行走的途中，遇到了一块不大的石头，韩成玩心忽起，用脚将之踢得往前滚动。

“咦？”

这一脚踢出之后，看着那块刚刚停下来的石头，韩成显得有些疑惑。

因为这块石头带来的脚感和一般的石头不太一样。

少了石头所特有的那种沉重与质感。

心里这样想着，韩成快走几步来到那块停下的石块跟前，弯腰将之捡起。

这块石头确实不重，和常见的石头比起来，差不多要轻上一半。

韩成拿在这块石头在手里来来回回的打量了一会儿，也没有从中发现什么特别的名堂，想了想，就用力将之摔在了地上。

这块显得比较轻的石头，被摔成了几瓣。

韩成弯腰捡起一块，放在眼前细细打量。

和经历了风吹雨打的表层不同，新摔开地方纹路很是清晰。

真的非常的清晰，清晰到韩成能够在里面发现看到一些鸟屎的那种！

这哪里是什么石头啊！而是不知道沉淀了多少年的陈年老鸟粪啊！都要变成了石头的那种！

拿着手里的这一小块石头，再看看周围这一大片表层和自己手里拿着的这一小块石头一样的诸多石头，韩成的嘴都咧到了耳朵后面去了，裤腰带一样。

这可真的是发了啊！

拿着手里的这块鸟粪，韩成傻笑了一会儿之后，将之往地上一丢，用力的一脚朝着地上的石头踹了上去。

之前的时候没有往这边留意还不觉得有什么，如今这一踹之下，顿时就觉出了不同。

这些石头果然和寻常的石头不同，踹上去觉得有些‘发虚’。

从韩成这里得知了这些石头可能是什么的青雀部落众人，一个个都兴奋起来，种了几年的田之后，他们可是清楚的明白粪肥对于种田的重大意义。

此时从韩成这里得知，这些石头可能都是陈年老鸟粪堆积而成，如何会不兴奋？

不用韩成多吩咐，沙师弟等一些人便已经或是用棍子、或是用手里拿着的青铜戈，或者是腰间别着的青铜斧头对着地上的这些石头，又是扎又是砸的。

没一会儿的功夫，就不不少地方的石头被砸开，将表层掀开之后，里面露出来的果然都是沉寂起来的鸟粪。

“哈哈哈……”

这回不光是韩成了，部落里其余跟着的人也都开怀大笑起来，极为的畅快。

这可真的是一个遍地是宝的岛啊！

看着这片岛屿，韩成满心的欢喜怎么都压制不住。

刚刚登上岛的时候，韩成还曾想过城中藏虎豹，洼里聚蛟龙的水泊梁山，幻想着是不是可以在这个岛屿上建立些什么，到了现在，韩成是一点都幻想了，因为这岛屿上的鸟粪实在是太多了！

天知道这里曾经有多少鸟类再此驻足，并留下珍贵的肥料。

在这没有将岛屿上的肥料给弄个七七八八之前，韩成觉得，这上面还是最好先不住人的为好。

当然，就以部落里现在的人数而言，在这个岛屿上建立居住地这些，也确实没有必要。

在未来的一段时间里，顶多会在修建一些茅屋，供打渔或者是挖藕的人暂时居住。

在这里停留了一阵儿之后，众人继续南行，来到了岛屿的最前端的边缘。

“喂~！”

爬上南端的这些山石，韩成还有其余人朝着巫他们所在的地方大声的喊叫。

拿着青雀旗子的那人，则用力挥舞着手中的青雀旗，将之舞动的哗啦啦作响。

“看！看！那里！”

在湖岸边上坡地坐着的人，听到隐约传来的喊声，再看到岛屿山石上面站着的人，一下就就都激动起来。

小豌豆更是高兴的又蹦又跳。

“哎~”

欢呼声里，有等在岸边的人，也将手拢起，放到嘴巴边上，大声呼喊着进行回应，那股欢快劲头就别提了。

立在岛屿南端的山石上，和岸上的人打过招呼，又在这里停留了一会儿之后，韩成和部落里的众人下了山石，开始往回返。

返回的时候因为所走过的地方都熟悉了，少了一份期待感，所以觉得比来的时候少花费了许多的时间。

一番的行走之后，韩成等人重新回到那大片的藕塘之前，将这些清洗过后的藕装进背篓之后，便沿着北侧的沙滩一路朝着木筏停靠的地方而去。

沙滩之上重新趴了晒太阳的老鳖，浅水区有长腿的鹭鸟在那里等着鱼往身边游动。

还有一些小短腿的鸟，沿着水边漫步。

韩成等人出现之后，免不了又是一阵儿的鸟飞鳖跑。

在这样的氛围里，一行人回到了登岸的地方。

用绳子固定在那里的四艘木筏都在，随着湖水的轻轻波动而一起一伏着。

留下二十人在这里，韩成和另外的九人登上木筏，解开绳索，竹篙捣在岸边，用力的推动之下，竹筏依次离开岸边，驶进湖水里。

在留在岛屿上的人的注视之下，木筏在湖水里调了一个头，朝着野鸭湖的南面驶去。

行驶一段距离之后，收起船篙，挂上双桨开始一下一下的摇动，木筏推开波浪……

“爸爸！”

被巫牵着一只手的小豌豆，高兴的喊着，韩成从木筏上下来之后，更是颠颠的跑到了韩成身边，将头发很短的脑袋往韩成的手上蹭……

“那里有莲藕，一种可好吃的东西，岛上有鸟粪，很多很多的那种!”

韩成对巫、白雪妹等等待着在这里的人说道，并将之前摸出来的藕拿出来给众人看。

Looking at these white and tender lotus roots, and thinking about the bird droppings Han Cheng mentioned, the people who stayed on the shore suddenly became excited and wanted to go to the island to see them with their own eyes.

A new food and a large amount of bird droppings that can be used to fertilize the fields are the most beautiful scenery for the people of the Greenbird Tribe!

Han Cheng naturally agreed.

The situation on the island has been explored. Apart from the possibility of being covered in bird droppings falling from the sky if going to the woods, there is no other danger.

Moreover, the sky is clear and the breeze is gentle. There is no possibility of strong winds, and it is very safe to paddle a raft on the lake. It is a good time to go to the island.

After helping Wu get on the raft carefully, he told the adults to hold all the children tightly and not to let them move. He also tied primitive life jackets on the children and some weaker people, and asked those who did not paddle the raft to sit on the raft and not to stand up until they docked at the shore. Then the four rafts started again...
