...
The days on the migration route seemed to pass very slowly, and each day seemed extremely long.
But it also seems to be very fast.
In the blink of an eye, they went from summer to autumn.
But I haven’t left Anhe yet.
It is still at least half the distance to the Shiwan Mountains.
No matter how anxious you are, winter is not a suitable and impossible season to continue traveling.
Luo Dahua and Bai Yingying agreed and found a suitable place to spend the winter in late autumn.
This is a mountain forest, and there is a river at the foot of the mountain.
Bai Yingying and her team chose a gentle slope and began to clear the trees and plants.
They needed a site for the dormitory building and also needed to build some thatched huts around it to guard it during the winter. This was no small project, and everyone was busy.
The dormitory building that Bai Yingying received as a reward last time was one of those old-fashioned ones, but it covered a large area.
There are four floors in total, and the stairs go up from the middle.
Divided by a staircase, there are 5 rooms of 30 square meters on each side, as well as two public toilets.
Excluding the bathroom, there are 40 rooms on the fourth floor.
Everyone slept on the floor, and even the bathroom was covered with straw mats and animal skins.
Everyone squeezed together and could barely fit in.
However, there must be at least 80 guards to patrol and guard the camp every day, and when winter comes, they cannot sleep outside in the open air.
They also needed to store food for the winter, so naturally they needed a thatched house to store it.
The saltwater crocodiles weren't good at building, but with so many apes in their group, they were skilled at crafting. In just two days, ten fresh thatched huts were built around the two houses.
Bai Yingying's carriage was not retracted and was placed between the two houses to store winter supplies.
Because there are so many people, many dry toilets have been built, but they are far away and the sanitary conditions are very poor.
Bai Yingying placed her mobile toilet in a separate place.
She just needed to ask Chi Zhen to dig a deep pit and place the mobile toilet on it.
Every time after using the toilet, I pour a thin layer of soil down and then close the floor, which can block out most of the odor. It is much better than the public dry toilets over there.
This mobile toilet also has a bathroom with shower facilities.
There is a water tank on the top of the toilet. As long as it is filled with water, Bai Yingying can take a bath in the bathroom, which is very convenient.
Two large straw huts were built in the camp, one of which was filled with firewood.
The other one has a row of wood stoves, which are used to cook food for the females.
As for males, apart from drinking some hot soup, most of them still eat raw meat.
During the collective migration, everyone eats from a big pot. There is a hunting team responsible for hunting every day. After processing the prey, everyone lines up to receive food according to their needs and eats until they are full. It is very humane.
The same applies after the official stationing.
Everyone is very busy.
Except for those guarding the camp, all the males were dispersed in groups to hunt. The weaker males were arranged to collect firewood nearby or tan animal skins.
The females are also busy. In addition to taking care of the cubs, they are also responsible for pickling and drying the meat for the winter.
Bai Yingying would also take the female with her to collect some fruits around, drying them or putting them directly into the system backpack.
Everyone is busy preparing supplies for the winter.
Bai Yingying's system backpack is always full. She puts the supplies that can't be put in and can be stored outside into the carriage or the hut.
However, to marinate so much meat, a lot of salt is needed.
Eating too much coarse salt is harmful to the body. Bai Yingying instructed the orangutans to use purification tools to purify the coarse salt brought by the saltwater crocodiles and orangutans into refined salt for use.
After purification, it was used up early.
Later, she kept using Bai Yingying's refined salt. She couldn't help feeling distressed when she saw the sharp decrease in refined salt in the system backpack.
This day.
Bai Yingying heard that there was a super tribe nearby, and this season was the time when the big market was open, so she made some space in her system backpack and planned to take Monsoon Chizhen with her to exchange for coarse salt and purify it.
What a coincidence.
This super tribe located in Anhe is the Short Crocodile Tribe.
And saltwater crocodiles are all crocodiles.
The An River area is rich in water resources, which is very suitable for the survival of short-skinned crocodiles.
Unlike the saltwater crocodile, they are much smaller, generally only about 2 meters in size.
Alligators have relatively short mouths and are not very fast. Although they look ferocious, they are not actually good at hunting.
However, their reproductive capacity is much stronger than that of saltwater crocodiles.
Decades ago, the saltwater crocodile tribe sent warriors from thousands of miles away to ask for marriage, but in the end the two tribes did not end well.
So this time, after Luo Dahua knew that Bai Yingying was going, he did not send the saltwater crocodiles to avoid causing trouble.
Bai Yingying took off her cotton coat, put on a beautiful ferret skin, and went to the short crocodile tribe with Ji Feng and Chi Zhen.
It was mid-November at this time, and Bai Yingying gave birth to two more litters of Monsoon cubs, a total of 19 puppies.
12 males, 7 females, 11 giant eagles, 8 white rabbits.
His good luck made Chi Zhen jealous.
When the next litter of cubs was born, the two had a big fight. Both of them were bruised and swollen, and they disliked each other.
After that, Chi Zhen and Ji Feng never worked night shifts together again.
For Bai Yingying, it was an unexpected gain. When the two were together, they were too noisy, but when she was alone, it was just right. He could keep watch at night and he would bother her less.
She is currently pregnant with Chi Zhen's baby, who is half a month away, and Luo Chen's baby, who is only one month away.
