"We must dig more traps. Let's clean up the big cave in the next two days so that the females and cubs can hide in it when the beasts tide." Wente said.
Shu Xin suggested: "Let's add another circle of wooden spike wall around the tribe. It can provide some protection. There's still time to do it now."
The wooden spike wall is a simple wooden fence with a few rows of wooden spikes on the other side facing outwards. It can block the enemy for a while. There is no time to build a city wall now, so we can only plan it slowly later.
Lei Te thought it was feasible. "Okay, tomorrow I'll ask my father to find someone from the tribe to do it. The deeper the wood is buried, the less likely it will fall."
"That's right, let's think about whether there are other ways."
Shu Yue held her chin and frowned as she said, "I'm more worried about the natural disaster the witch doctor mentioned. What kind of disaster will it be? A flood or something?" She felt that a flood was more likely.
The months of heavy rain are terrifying.
Wente asked, "Does the word 'flood' refer to a massive flood?"
Shu Yue nodded, "That's what I mean."
Lei Te said, "There is a possibility of heavy flooding during the rainy season, but there is no need to worry too much. If the flooding is severe, we can just abandon the tribe and come back when the water stops. We have wings to hide."
Shu Xin, Shu Yue: "..."
Well, as long as it's not a tornado or hail, it's amazing that it can fly. It's summer now and we live in the forest, so the possibility of those two things happening is almost zero.
The adults were talking about how to defend the tribe, but the children didn't understand. They had innocent looks on their faces and had no idea of the dangers that might come in the future.
The rainy season is approaching, and everyone is getting busier and busier. The males are busy storing food and defending the tribe, while the females are busy digging crops out of the soil and storing them in cellars, waiting to take them out and plant them again after the rainy season is over.
In order to get through the rainy season safely, the priests prayed to the Beast God for three consecutive days, asking the Beast God to have mercy on them and prevent the rainy season from being too dangerous.
After three days of continuous prayers, the priests all lay down, and heavy rain came as expected, heralding the arrival of the rainy season.
It was the first time for the three children to see such heavy rain. They had been suffering from the heat for a while, so when they suddenly saw the rain, they were so excited that they ran to the rain and rolled around, getting their bodies dirty.
Don’t be afraid of getting dirty, just stand up and be washed by the rain and you will be clean again.
Big Horn swung his hooves and trampled the ground into a muddy mess. After trampling it into a mess, he lay down on the ground. When he got up again, the ground he had stepped on was flattened.
It seemed like he had found some fun and never got tired of playing.
Dabao rushed around in the rain, enjoying the cool moment.
Xiao Bei's white fur turned yellow. Her physique was not on the same level as the other two. Shu Yue was afraid that she would get sick if she stayed in the rain for too long, so she invited her into the house. "Xiao Bei, you've had enough fun. It would be bad if you caught a cold."
Xiaobei hasn’t had enough fun and doesn’t want to come back.
Seeing this, Wen Te went out into the rain and brought her back, saying, "We've had enough fun today. Let's continue tomorrow."
Xiaobei: “…” Then just listen to father.
In the room, Shu Yue leaned on the sofa, eating fruit and enjoying the rain, while grinding herbs on the roller.
The herb is dried hemostatic grass. Grinding it into powder is more convenient than chewing grass, and it is also easy to carry, so as to prepare for the beast tide in advance.
On the first day of the rainy season, everyone was restless and went out to get wet in the rain to cool off the heat.
It was like they had made an appointment. Guoguo, Yaya and Jiaojiao all came. Jiaojiao brought her two kids, Yaya was holding one in her arms, and Guoguo was carrying some fruits. No one came empty-handed.
The males spontaneously gave up the living room to them.
Shu Yue quickly asked them to sit down, "Yaya, Duoduo is still so young, did she get wet in the rain?"
