Because it was his first time hosting a promotion and he had no experience, Lin Xiaoman gave five places.
After a fruiting season and constant battles for prey, the five strongest warriors, including the clan leader, earned a spot in this promotion.
Lin Xiaoman spent a lot of money to give each person a third-level blessing, and 4,000 magical powers were gone just like that.
Holding a bone staff in one hand and touching the totem stone in the other, Lin Xiaoman appeared calm and composed on the surface, but he was actually a little nervous in his heart. He continued to spend a lot of money and invested 100,000 magic power at one time.
As the tribesmen knelt on the ground in worship, the rich light of the totem poured down, making the whole scene both sacred and magnificent.
The light enveloped the five people, and some still absorbed more light and some absorbed less.
Fearing that someone would die, Lin Xiaoman was fully focused and ready to offer treatment at any time.
After a long time, about an hour, the strongest man in the tribe, Chief Jie, broke through first and was promoted successfully.
Two hours later, it was over.
Three out of five were successful, and the other two were saved by Lin Xiaoman's treatment and their strength did not decline. The result was considered a good one.
The tribe now has three first-level warriors, and the entire tribe is celebrating with drums and gongs.
After the ceremony was successfully concluded, the ordinary tribesmen dispersed and a group of warriors were left behind. After a few people competed with each other, they got the result. The newly promoted first-level warrior faced the junior warriors, and it was about one against three.
Although there was no qualitative change, just a small improvement, the clan leader and the other three were extremely happy and in high spirits.
The overall strength of the tribe has increased again, and the entire tribe is in high spirits.
After the first light snow, the number of dinosaurs in the forest decreased rapidly. Those that hibernated began to hibernate, and those that migrated began to migrate. Although there were fewer prey, the hunting teams still worked diligently to find food.
The hunting teams, mainly composed of middle-aged men, continued to work, while the gathering teams, mainly composed of women, were empty, and the edible vegetables and fruits in the forest were almost gone.
In the past, the cold season meant staying at home, but now with Lin Xiaoman here, of course I continue to be busy.
Because Lin Xiaoman proposed the work of tanning furs, although the success rate was not very high, the tribe finally had more than a dozen furs.
Even if it was a small dinosaur, the head was at least the size of a child, so the fur was very bulky.
As the highest-ranking witch in the tribe, Lin Xiaoman was given the three best pieces of fur: one for a mattress, one for a quilt, and one for a cloak. She also had a pile of hairless skins, so wrapped in three layers, she wasn't too cold.
But! It is said that the cold season will get colder.
When the snow covers the forest and when the snow melts, that’s when it’s really cold!
The few furs available were primarily supplied to the warriors who were responsible for patrolling and guarding during the cold season, so the ordinary tribesmen's cold-resistant equipment consisted of only two or three pieces of fur.
The skin feels like ice.
So, as soon as the collection activities stopped, Lin Xiaoman began to arrange work.
First, the thread is rolled. From the fur that failed to be tanned, the long hairs are selected and the thread is rolled manually. With Lin Xiaoman's explanation and on-site demonstration, several dexterous people in the tribe learned how to do it.
Then, the bone needles.
From the pile of small bones collected, they picked out one that was about the length of a finger and relatively thin, and used a bone spear to poke a hole little by little. Although the tools were limited and it was purely manual, there was strength in numbers, and soon the first bone needle was successfully produced.
With the needle and thread, Lin Xiaoman found two pieces of thinner leather and performed a stitching operation on the spot, leaving a small edge.
The last step is to stuff it with down.
Forget about the fluff, just tear the feathers off the rachis and stuff them in balls.
Because of the large number of people, the first small quilt was born.
It wasn't pretty, and the quality was questionable, but it was warm enough. After all, it was the first step, so the expectations couldn't be too high. And after that first step was a success, the next step was mass production.
At this level, down jackets are not practical, so we can just make a cloak-like thing that can be worn, covered, and used as a mattress. Putting a feather quilt like this on a bed of straw will definitely keep you warm.
After Professor Lin Xiaoman finished, he returned to his training. The tribesmen were furiously working on their feather quilts. Even without Lin Xiaoman's advice, the tribe leader's wife would nag him daily, urging the hunting teams to hunt more furry dinosaurs while there was still prey.
About ten days later, the second snow fell. This snow was a bit heavy. Although it did not cause snow accumulation, after this snow, the hunting team brought back fewer and fewer prey.
When the third snow fell, there was no prey at all. The white snow covered everything. The temperature was so cold that even the soldiers could not avoid frostbite to varying degrees.
Hunting stopped.
The tribe officially began to rely on stored food to survive the cold season.
The clan leader's wife fully utilized her intelligence and talent. After completing a large number of down quilts, she made a simple down jacket. Simply put, it is two pieces of down in the front and back, tied together with dragon tendons, just like wrapping a quilt around the body.
In addition, with the fur, even the soldiers who were responsible for patrolling and guarding outside would not suffer so much.
Although ordinary people in the cave cannot afford a down quilt for each person, each family still has one or two down quilts. It is much warmer for the whole family to huddle together.
Lin Xiaoman also suggested ginger soup to dispel cold. Ginger has existed in the past, but before there were pots, people would just chew it raw. Now it is boiled into soup by adding water and meat. A bowl of ginger soup can warm you up for a while and also fill your stomach.
During this cold season, everyone in the Hu tribe is full of hope. Because of the witch and the many changes she has brought, this cold season is truly warmer than ever before.
He wrote down whatever he thought of and did not spend any time studying it. Lin Xiaoman, who was at home during the winter, devoted all his energy to cultivation.
If there is no war in this winter season, then she can safely reach level 40 in the spring!
Without other wizards for reference, Lin Xiaoman didn't know what his own strength was. He always felt that he was still very weak, so he worked very hard!
Day after day, the snow fell again and again, and the snow on the ground became thicker and thicker. After Lin Xiaoman had drawn 35 correct characters in nearly three months, one day, the soldier in charge of patrolling in the watchtower blew the horn.
Upon hearing the noise, everyone in the tribe immediately became alert.
Regardless of gender, age or status, everyone took up arms in unison.
The clan leader's expression was solemn as he called on all the young and strong men. It was a huge group, all armed, and it looked like they were about to start a fight...
