Lin Qiu pushed Song Mu: "I haven't had enough fun yet!"
After being shrouded in the heat for so long, Lin Qiu finally found a place to escape the heat and cool down, but he was still not happy.
I really want to settle down here. After all, living by the water is extra cool.
Lin Qiu struggled out of the two clinging males' arms: "You two, be quiet. You go sit over there, and you, go to the other side."
Lin Qiu pointed to the corners on both sides, preventing them from getting close to him.
Ling Yun and Song Mu naturally refused, but Lin Qiu said, "Whoever disobeys will sleep in the west wing at night."
The two pursed their lips and reluctantly moved to the other side of the pool.
Lin Qiu felt the water flowing past her and splashed some water on her shoulders.
It’s really refreshing.
She thought of what Ling Yun had just said to Song Mu and said, "If there's no rain in the summer, will the river in the forest dry up?"
Ling Yun thought for a moment and said, "Most of the water in this forest comes from rainwater, even the stream in our tribe. Springs like this are rare, so a lack of rain will definitely have an impact. However, our tribe has just rebuilt the canal, which can store some water, so there won't be any problems with survival."
But Lin Qiu also thought: "What about the crops we grow? Also, if there is no water in the forest, the beasts will not be able to survive, and we will have no food."
"We can only water the ground thoroughly now. As for the wild animals, alas, there's nothing we can do about them."
If there is no rain for the entire summer, even the water flow of the spring where they are now will decrease.
Not only will the wild beasts have no water source, but the plants will also wither. Hunters can still hunt and rely on blood to maintain water, but herbivores have nowhere to find food.
Song Mu gave a wry smile. "Our tribe has enough potatoes now, and the jerky can last for a while. As long as we can ensure that the potatoes in the fields can be harvested, there will be no problem making it through to the rainy season. We'll talk about it then."
I don’t know what happened. Last year’s winter season was colder than usual, and there was an outbreak of beasts. This summer season is the same.
"The springs are groundwater that flows out due to pressure, and we can find a way to dig out the groundwater artificially." Lin Qiu said.
Lin Qiu knew this because it was difficult to get water in the mountainous area. When she was a teenager in Hongshi Village, everyone still had to dig wells for water.
"Groundwater?" Ling Yun paused. For the orcs, every natural phenomenon is controlled by the Beast God, whether it is rain falling from the sky or water gushing out from the ground.
Ling Yun and Song Mu were both surprised. Lin Qiu said, "Groundwater often gathers in the low-lying areas between two mountains. Our tribe happens to be backed by a mountain range. I think we can dig down and find water. We must at least ensure water and irrigation for the tribe. As for the wild animals, those oxen are now accustomed to being captive, so they can serve as a source of food for us."
After all, tigers are pure carnivores. Eating potatoes, konjac and the like can only fill their stomachs, but they cannot actually absorb any nutrients. It's okay for a few days or dozens of days, but what about hundreds of days?
If the rain really has to wait until the rainy season, the plants will not have time to grow, there will not be much prey, and the entire cold season tribe will fall into hardship again.
They must have plenty of meat!
Ling Yun and Song Mu looked at each other: "Xiao Qiu, are you serious? Can we dig out water? Will this water be enough?"
"It's definitely enough, but the question is whether we can dig deep enough."
Human society has drilling machines, but the tiger tribe only has stone tools.
"Don't worry, as long as we can dig out water, we can dig deeper."
Ling Yun made up his mind. When he returned to the tribe, he would direct everyone to store water and find a team to be responsible for digging groundwater. They could dig one inside the tribe and one outside the tribe. If it was not difficult, they could dig another one near the fence of Ju Niu.
