In this world, if you are defeated and captured, you will either die or become a slave to the enemy.
Survival is the instinct of all living things. After seven days of cold and hunger, the Hu tribe had 20 more slaves, and only two loyal members of the Rui tribe were killed.
Afterwards, Lin Xiaoman obtained relevant information about the Rui tribe.
As she guessed, the forces attacking other tribes this time were only one-third of the Rui tribe's combat power. They left nearly two-thirds to guard their homes. The entire Rui tribe had a population of nearly 1,000 people, and the Rui tribe had a very powerful witch.
However, with Lin Xiaoman's indirect hints, she could roughly judge that the witch was not as powerful as her, because the witch of the Rui tribe could not be promoted to a warrior.
Having passed the loyalty test of the totem stone, these people could not lie to her, so Lin Xiaoman felt relieved.
Without the threat of enemies, life was peaceful, but the food consumption was extremely high.
Including the slaves, the population of the Hu tribe suddenly reached nearly 800. After the people of the Rui tribe feasted and drank lavishly, there was not much food left in the Ling tribe's reserves.
Although the slaves ate leftovers, they had many mouths to feed and consumed a lot.
Time flies, and Lin Xiaoman has recorded nearly 25 correct characters. The cold season has lasted for 4 months, but the weather is still very cold, and the sun in the sky is still without temperature. There is no sign of the cold season ending.
This is what it looks like!
The eighth long-necked dragon has been thrown out. Lin Xiaoman is a little nervous because he doesn't know how long the cold season will last. There are 800 mouths to feed. It is necessary to get some food.
What food?
Fish, of course!
Although she had a plan in mind, she didn't know whether it was feasible. Lin Xiaoman, who was ready to try to catch fish, continued to sit on the shoulders of the mountain warrior. Under the escort of the Jie tribe leader, the Li warrior, and several junior warriors, a group of dozens of people went to the big lake that she saw when she parachuted.
The huge lake was already frozen over, and the ice was more than one meter thick.
A place was chosen in the center of the lake, and the soldiers were asked to knock open the ice. After they knocked out a hole in the ice, not long after, a huge fish, more than one meter long, jumped out.
With the first, second, and third...
It was obvious that no one was fishing, and the lake was full of big fish. Even the ice hole that was more than one meter wide was blocked, so they had to continue to dig it out to more than two meters.
Countless big fish jumped up one after another.
Two soldiers went back to inform the others, and soon a team of hundreds of people arrived at the lake with large baskets.
Baskets of fish were transported back and cooked into fish soup.
Due to the lack of seasoning, the fish soup is not that delicious, but it is edible in the cold season.
The cold season continued, and in the following days, two waves of people arrived. They were all small tribes of dozens of people. They could not hold on because of lack of food, so they came to seek refuge.
Chief Jie accepted all those who passed the loyalty assessment. As for those who pretended to surrender, they were locked up and starved for a few days. After the second loyalty assessment, those who passed became slaves, and those who failed were killed directly.
Life continued like this. From time to time, they would go to the Great Ice Lake to catch thousands of kilograms of fish, plus the stored meat. Everyone in the tribe had their fill every day, and even the slaves were not hungry.
Day after day, after nearly five and a half months, as the snow showed signs of melting, tiny new leaf tips emerged on a few large trees, Grandma Yang announced that the cold season was about to end!
This happened immediately and lasted for half a month.
Half a month later, when all the snow disappeared and the white forest showed green again, Grandma Yang announced that the recovery season had arrived!
The season has changed, and it is time for another grand sacrificial ceremony.
After the sacrifice, the hunt began.
Because Lin Xiaoman announced that the revival season was over and a warrior awakening and junior warrior promotion would be held, the warriors and slaves in the tribe were all working hard to strive for the top.
The men all went hunting, and the women and the elderly and children also had a lot of work to do. Lin Xiaoman arranged all the production work that had been sorted out during the winter season.
Pottery making must continue, baskets must be woven, ropes must be twisted, threads must be woven, bone knives, stone knives, bone spears, wooden spears, the more weapons the better, and various wooden tools must be made, and the vegetables with seeds must be planted...
Caves are too damp. Tree houses need to be developed as well...
800 people may seem like a lot, but once the work is assigned, there is immediately a shortage of manpower.
Alas, there is too much work to do, I can only take it slowly.
After a brief work arrangement, the clan leader's wife was responsible for everything else, and Lin Xiaoman was free again.
Looking at his own magical power that was more than one million, Lin Xiaoman decided that it was time to upgrade.
Upgrading, upgrading, upgrading, spending a full 800,000 wizard power, Lin Xiaoman successfully reached level 40. His wizard spell skills were a row of [Level 4 Blessing] and [Level 4 Healing]...
Trying to light it up a little bit, wow, 1600 magic power.
Based on past experience, Lin Xiaoman knew without guessing that it would cost 1,600 yuan per use.
He immediately felt that his magic power was not enough.
Without rushing to learn any skills, Lin Xiaoman first touched the totem stone.
The totem stone has a new totem imprint.
This function is to give a totem to each member of the tribe. The main pattern of the totem is a winged dragon beast. Depending on the identity, the totem has various differences.
Chief totem, warrior totem, witch totem, slave brand...
Lin Xiaoman guessed that this was because the tribe had developed to a certain level, with a population of tens of thousands, and they didn't have anything like ID cards, so they got tattoos to make it easier to identify them and avoid accidentally hurting friendly forces during a fight.
