Chapter 143 Summer Breeze
Jian Mo took Ran Shao to the hospital for a checkup.
There were no instruments here, and Jian Mo didn’t have much experience, so he could only ask Ran Shao questions while observing his condition.
Ran Shao pulled down his fur skirt, looked at Jian Mo’s serious expression, and was a little scared: “Doctor Jian Mo, am I okay?”
Jian Mo: “I’m fine, I look healthy. But in your condition, you are strictly prohibited from holding heavy objects, especially people, as it’s too easy to have an accident.”
Ran Shao nodded like a chicken pecking at rice: “I understand.”
Jian Mo added: “You are a little thin, and it’s best to eat more meat after you are pregnant, but don’t eat too much, just two pieces more than usual. If it’s convenient, I suggest you come to my place every month to check on me and keep an eye on me at all times.”
Ran Shao agreed again and again.
After the examination, Jian Mo smiled at him: "Just pay more attention, there's nothing else to do."
Ran Shao also relaxed.
Jian Mo: "Your partner will stay in the clinic for two days for observation. I'll bring you meals during these two days."
Ran Shao: "Thank you, Dr. Jian Mo, you've been so hard."
Jian Mo shook his head: "It's okay, just do a little more when cooking."
Ran Shao's partner Tu Chuan was injured in a special position, so it's best to observe for two more days.
Otherwise, if something happens and affects the function, it will be a big problem.
Jian Mo was not interested in the privacy of patients, so Zhou Fu and the others asked about it.
Because they discovered a new posture, Zhou Fu and several other beastmen with partners came to share it with Jian Mo.
Jian Mo's scalp tingled when he heard this, and he warned: "Don't mess around! It's very dangerous."
Zhou Fu thought seriously and said: "That's not the case."
Jian Mo warned seriously: "Really not, I don't want to receive you and Jiu Yin in the clinic one day."
Zhou Fu's round face showed a blush, and he said regretfully: "Okay."
Jian Mo crossed his hands and made a cross: "Be serious, you don't want the relevant jokes to spread to all nearby tribes, right?"
Zhou Fu looked more serious: "Okay."
Jian Mo wiped his sweat. Being a pet doctor is not easy, and being a general practitioner for humans is even more difficult.
In the evening, Jian Mo asked Wu Jiong to deliver food to Ran Shao and the others, intending to popularize relevant knowledge.
Before they arrived at the place, Jian Mo and Wu Jiong heard the conversation of the young couple in the clinic.
Ran Shao: "It feels like it's going to be windy, I want to go back to the tribe." Tu
Chuan: "No."
Ran Shao comforted him: "I'll just go back for half a day, I'll be back tomorrow morning."
Tu Chuan: "No! I have a partner, how can you leave me here alone?!"
Ran Shao: "I'll just go home to pack up my things, so that the things at home won't be blown away by the wind."
Tu Chuan: "What if I'm blown away?"
Jian Mo coughed twice to indicate that they were here.
Wu Jiong patted Jian Mo's shoulder.
Ran Shao pretended to be calm and came out to greet them: "Doctor Jian Mo, Chief Wu Jiong."
Jian Mo originally wanted to give some popular science, but felt that now was not a good time, so he asked: "You said it's going to be windy?"
Ran Shao: "Yes, we people in the Zhengchi tribe are particularly sensitive to wind. The wind should blow tonight, and it may turn into a strong wind tomorrow afternoon."
Jian Mo: "Is it a typhoon?"
Ran Shao was puzzled: "What is a typhoon? Anyway, It's the summer wind, and after this period of wind, it will be autumn."
Jian Mo came to this world only last autumn, and he couldn't imagine what a summer wind was. He could only nod and pass the dinner over: "Thank you for your hard work. I'll check Tuchuan's injury later. If he's healed, you can go back tomorrow morning."
Tuchuan's surprised voice came from the clinic: "That's great!"
Jian Mo went in to check Tuchuan's injury, then said goodbye and left.
Wu Jiong said: "If the summer wind blows, our tribe must also be prepared. I'll go tell Qingkuang and Dejiang."
Jian Mo: "I'll go with you!"
The two took a detour to find Qingkuang first.
Qing Kuang calculated the days: "Now it is indeed almost time for the summer wind to blow. I will go and tell a few families to put their things away."
Wu Jiong nodded: "I will talk to Dejiang later."
Qing Kuang: "Okay. By the way, what should we do with the crops planted by the river?"
Jian Mo almost forgot about the crops by the river: "I will go and take a look first."
Qing Kuang: "I will go and take a look later. Those that can be harvested should be harvested as soon as possible. Those that cannot be harvested will be considered for later."
Jian Mo is quite clear about the situation of the crops: "They are not ripe yet, and I guess they cannot be harvested. I will think of a solution."
Jian Mo originally wanted to experience the summer wind here, but once it came to crops, he could not treat the summer wind with a relaxed and happy mood.
The wind was strong, and the crop yield would be reduced.
It was getting dark, and there was nothing to do today, so Wu Jiong pulled Jian Mo to talk to Dejiang first.
Dejiang said that he would put the materials at the furnace away.
Jian Mo and his friends walked around the tribe, and it was already dark when they returned home.
The wind had indeed started to blow, howling, but not strong, just making people feel cool.
They packed up the firewood piled outside the kitchen in the night, and went to see Jiujiu and Yingao.
Yingao looked calm and strong, and even if Jiujiu was a little frightened, there shouldn't be any problem for the two of them to be together.
Jian Mo breathed a sigh of relief, patted Jiujiu, told them to stay in the nest and not run around, and went to see the tuo beast and the long-tailed bird.
The tuo beast was a little timid.
Jian Mo asked Wu Jiong worriedly: "Do you think the tuk-tuk beasts will be scared to death if the wind blows?"
Wu Jiong: "Not really, there are tuk-tuk beasts in the wild."
Jian Mo: "There have been cases of tuk-tuk beasts in the wild being frightened to death after being caught in a heavy rain."
Wu Jiong said calmly: "I think our group of tuts are quite brave among tuts, so they should be fine."
Jian Mo: "There's nothing we can do if something happens."
They inspected the area, closed the door, and went out.
The windows of the animal shed were just a few holes, and there was nothing to close.
After inspecting the animal shed, Jian Mo took Wu Jiong to move the fermenting fish sauce on the side into the house.
There was fumes in the kitchen, and if the fish sauce was moved there, it would get stained by the fumes and go bad, so it had to be kept at home for the time being.
As they were inspecting, the wind was getting stronger and stronger.
Jian Mo looked up at the dark tribe: "I understand why everyone builds stone houses. They are more windproof, right?"
Wu Jiong: "Not only are they windproof, they will not break down even if you live in them for hundreds of years."
Jian Mo: "Can the houses of the Jintuo tribe and the Baizhi tribe be windproof?"
Wu Jiong: "They are in the mountains, the wind is not that strong. Don't think about it. It's windy every year, nothing will happen. Let's go back and take a shower and go to bed." Wu Jiong
said, stretching out his arm to pick up Jian Mo, and pushed him into the house to take a shower.
Now it was time for them to go to bed, and Jian Mo was very sleepy. Although he was a little worried when he heard the howling wind outside, he fell asleep quickly.
The next day, Jian Mo was awakened by a series of banging sounds.
The beast ears on his head moved, and after listening for a long time, he finally figured out that it was the sound of the wind blowing their courtyard door.
Wu Jiong's voice came from above: "It's still early, why don't you sleep a little longer?"
Jian Mo: "It seems that the courtyard door was blown open by the wind, I'll go and have a look."
Wu Jiong also listened carefully, and after listening for a while: "Really, I'll go close it."
Jian Mo hurriedly got up with him: "I can't sleep, I'll go too."
The wind was accompanied by a drop in temperature. When Jian Mo went out, he felt that the weather had become much cooler. It was not enough to wear only a single piece of clothing, so he had to put on a coat.
Of course, this was just him.
Wu Jiong was still in his beast skin skirt.
It was still dark outside, and the wind was blowing hard, as if it had color and shape, and the sky and the earth were white.
Jian Mo looked at it worriedly: "Is the wind always so strong here?"
Wu Jiong held him tightly: "It hasn't reached its strongest point yet. The wind seems to be particularly strong this year."
Jian Mo: "It hasn't reached its strongest point yet, does that mean it will be windy after a while?"
Wu Jiong: "No, this wind has just started, and it will get stronger and stronger."
Jian Mo became worried: "If this happens, the crops in the fields won't be able to withstand it, right?"
Not only Jian Mo thought so, but after dawn, Qing Kuang and the others came over to talk, and they also talked about the problem of the crops in the fields.
"If the wind keeps blowing like this, it'll probably blow away all the leaves on the ground."
"I'm afraid the roots will be blown away as well."
"We have to think of a way to block it."
"Build a wall? It's too late now. The cement will take two or three days to dry."
"How about adding a fence?"
"The fence will be blown away by the wind too, right?"
"No, just use wood, leave half on the ground and half underground. No matter how strong the wind is, it shouldn't be able to blow it away."
Jian Mo didn't even get a chance to say a word before everyone came up with a solution.
He was a little skeptical: "Will this work?"
Qing Kuang: "Why not? This is the most convenient way. Anyway, we don't need to use it for many years. It just needs to block the wind."
Ye Luo: "I know where there is wood that is particularly suitable for making fences. We can cut the wood back quickly while the wind is not too strong."
Qing Kuang called Wu Jiong: "Then let's go cut wood, chief?"
Wu Jiong: "Okay, don't go out hunting and gathering today, protect the vegetable field first."
Qing Kuang: "Okay, I'll go inform the beastmen, and let each family bring their axes."
Since last autumn, the frequency of transactions between the Riverside Tribe and other tribes has increased sharply.
Now basically every household has metal tools and a lot of axes.
Soon, the entire tribe gathered more than 20 axes and went to cut wood under the leadership of Ye Luo.
The wood that Ye Luo brought to cut was long and straight, about as thick as the arm of an orc.
The ends of the chopped wood were sharpened, and then branches were cut off, and then they were cut into suitable lengths for use.
Jian Mogang sent Tuchuan and Ran Shao away and hurried over to the vegetable garden to take a look.
Led by Wu Jiong, most of the people in the tribe were busy here.
Many orcs turned back into their beast forms, held the wood in their mouths, and inserted it into the ditch in the field. Then, relying on their weight advantage, they pressed the whole beast down and pushed the whole wood halfway into the soil.
The orcs followed beside them, raised stones and hammered a few times, and the wood was inserted.
One by one, the wood was inserted into the field to form a wooden wall.
After the wooden wall was built, Jian Mo could clearly see that the raging wind in the field suddenly became much weaker, and the leaves of the crops did not sway much.
Especially the wheat grass, which was originally a little bit flat, was blocked by the wooden wall and basically recovered to its upright position.
It seems that the wooden wall is really useful.
However, Jian Mo has never seen this kind of wind protection method before.
On Earth, if there is a typhoon or other wind, people basically do not take any measures to deal with it.
Maybe the fields on Earth are too large, and it is not as easy for people to obtain wood as in this world. There are no huge beasts that can directly insert wood into the soil.
It seems that the difference between the two worlds is indeed quite large.
There are more and more wood inserted in the fields, and the space for the beastmen to move around is getting smaller and smaller.
The movements of the canines were mostly clumsy, and they would either knock over wood or step on crops.
The cats couldn't stand it anymore, so they drove most of the canines out of the field.
"You should go back and cut wood."
"Be careful not to hit the wood you just inserted."
"Hey, just let us do it!"
Although the canines were a little unconvinced, they had no choice, as their beast forms were indeed not that flexible.
After working with their paws raised for a long time, the canines had to leave the field.
The big cats looked at some of the canines who had left the field, wagging their tails proudly and moving flexibly, inserting the wood into the soil without knocking down any wood or crops.
Jian Mo watched the cats' snake-like movements from afar, and was very convinced.
Cats on Earth are like liquids, and they walk very flexibly.
I didn't expect that in the beastman world, the big cats are more than a hundred times larger than ordinary house cats, but they are still so flexible.
Seeing the big orange cat Ah Hu dragging his tail and standing on tiptoe, it seems that he didn't even step on a single weed to death. It's hard to imagine that this guy is actually clumsy among the cat beastmen.
In addition to the cat beastmen, some canine beastmen are also very flexible.
Wu Jiong is very flexible. Such a big wolf can still turn around flexibly and pick up wood in a narrow field without touching any beastmen or breaking any plants.
I have to say, this really requires some skills.
Jian Mo watched for a while with admiration.
The giant beasts worked very quickly. Jian Mo's family had a lot of fields, and many people were helping them work.
After they finished, Jian Mo invited everyone to go home for tea.
Everyone was not polite to him.
The weather is a bit cold today, so in addition to preparing ordinary tea, Jian Mo also specially prepared ginger tea.
Some people don't like this irritating taste, while others think it is very special.
Everyone ate roasted nuts and preserved fruits, drank tea and chatted, and even the windy day became warm.
After chatting for a long time, everyone said goodbye and went home.
Jian Mo went out to see the guests off, but as soon as he went out, a strong wind blew over and almost blew him to the ground.
Qing Kuang and several others reached out to pull him, but Wu Jiong was the fastest and directly stretched out his arm to hold his waist.
Jian Mo was nervous: "The wind is too strong, if it's the cubs, they will be blown away by the wind, right?"
Qing Kuo: "That's right. They are kept at home on windy days and cannot go out."
Jian Mo then remembered that he hadn't seen the cubs today, and he was afraid that the cubs were strictly ordered by their parents to stay at home.
Jian Mo remembered again: "Oh no, we haven't gone to see the honeyeaters yet."
Wu Jiong hugged him: "I checked this morning, the wind in the forest is relatively small, the honeyeaters are fine."
Jian Mo: "Didn't they say the wind will get stronger? Let's collect them."
The cages they used to hold the honeyeaters are still there, and now they can take the cages to collect the honeyeaters.
At this moment, we don’t need to worry about whether the honeyeaters will run away after being disturbed. We should wait until this period of strong winds is over before considering it. Otherwise, if the honeyeaters’ nests are blown away, everything will be gone.
The two hurried to the back mountain.
The wind in the forest is smaller, but the honeyeaters are still struggling in their nests.
The reason why they were not blown away with their nests is that Jian Mo had glued their nests firmly to the tree with fish maw glue before - Jian Mo was worried that some naughty cubs or birds and animals would directly take away the honeyeaters’ nests, so he glued it.
This move has helped them a lot now.
The honeyeaters are nesting in their nests, and the wind blows from all directions, blowing their feathers into a mess.
Many honeyeaters could not even open their eyes, and they lay in their nests like chickens in the water, which was pitiful to see.
Jian Mo and Wu Jiong pried the honeyeater's nest apart and stuffed it into the cage.
The honeyeaters only chirped twice, and there was no further reaction.
Jian Mo: "I wonder what happened to the honeyeaters in the mountains? With such a strong wind, will their nests be blown away?"
Wu Jiong: "Probably not. The cliff is sheltered from the wind. There are strong winds every year, but their nests have not been blown away."
Jian Mo was still worried: "Wait for the wind to stop in two days, and then we will go up the mountain to have a look?"
Wu Jiong: "Okay."
The two quickly stuffed the honeyeaters and their nests into the cage, and took them home to put away temporarily.
Jian Mo looked at the honeyeaters, and hurriedly went to see the tuk-tuk beasts and long-tailed birds again.
The long-tailed bird seemed quite calm, still pacing in the animal shed.
The much larger ox-eared beasts huddled together, shivering and looking terrified.
Jian Mo sighed, this beast was much less courageous than the bird.
Jian Mo went to see Jiujiu and Yingao again.
Jiujiu and Yingao did not go out, and were now curled up in the nest.
Especially Jiujiu, who was squatting in the nest like an old hen incubating eggs, with a very peaceful expression.
Jian Mo rarely saw Jiujiu in this posture, and felt it was a bit strange, but did not think much about it.
Jian Mo patted Jiujiu's belly: "Jiujiu, Yingao, you two stay in the den and don't go out. It's too windy outside. Especially Yingao, you should eat the food we prepared for the next two days."
Jiujiu answered actively: "Jiu!"
Yingao turned his head and looked at Jiujiu, and also: "Jiu."
The wind was too strong, and Jian Mo's body swayed again. Fortunately, he was pulled by Wu Jiong in time.
Jiujiu was not very reassured, and nudged Jian Mo with his head: "Jiujiu!"
Jian Mo was urged by it to go back, and hurriedly responded: "I know, we will go back now, you two stay here obediently."
Jiujiu: "Jiu!"
Jian Mo and Wu Jiong went home against the wind.
Wu Jiong suddenly said: "Jiujiu seems a little strange, maybe she is hiding something."
Jian Mo: "Huh?!"
