Ling Yun arranged the work of his own tribe and asked the orcs who were currently working in the Tiger Tribe to quickly return to their own tribe to check the situation.
Following Lin Qiu's instructions, Ling Yun found three places, marked out a range, and asked everyone to dig down together with shovels.
"Chief, I think it would be more convenient to use claws." The orcs who came with him to dig the well threw aside the broken stone tools in their hands. These stone tools were ok for loosening the soil, but this uncultivated soil was hard and solid, and it became harder to dig the deeper they went.
Ling Yun thought for a moment and said, "Okay, one of you can come up and take turns digging."
"Chief, how long will we keep digging? How can there be water underground? Shouldn't the water be above the soil?"
Stones and sand thrown into the water will sink to the bottom, which is something even the cubs know. How can there be water underground?
"Keep digging until you find water."
“What if we keep digging and there’s no water?”
"There will definitely be some, at least several dozen meters. Stop talking nonsense, the task is very difficult, hurry up and get to work."
If Lin Qiu said there was, then there must be. Even though it was difficult to understand, Ling Yun firmly believed it.
Ling Yun arranged everything and hurried to the back mountain.
Now the larvae of the colorful-winged butterfly are at the stage of consuming a lot of broken-leaf mulberry, and are about to turn into cocoons. It would be very unwilling to just leave them alone, so he could only assign two people to be responsible for this.
All the males in the tribe became busy. The adult orcs had work to do, and the work of weeding and catching insects in the fields was assigned to the half-grown males.
Lin Qiu also organized the females and wanted to work together to make the sweet fruits into sweet dried fruits and sweet juice powder, which could be regarded as food that could quickly replenish energy. She originally thought that the females would refuse, but unexpectedly it went smoothly.
The first tribe Mei Yan went to was the Rat Tribe. Like the Tiger Tribe, they quickly planted another batch of potatoes after harvesting the previous one. These were their precious potatoes, so he had to notify them first so that they could make preparations in advance to avoid missing out on the harvest.
The Rat Tribe had actually anticipated this. Facing Mei Yan, Bu'er said, "The waterfall here hasn't been flowing as fast lately. I think it's due to the lack of rainfall. Don't worry, our tribe is already storing water. With such a large river, we won't die of thirst."
The Rat Tribe's location did have more water than the Tiger Tribe's, but Mei Yan still reminded him seriously: "You should still take some measures, such as digging a larger reservoir in the cave. After all, these potatoes are related to our tribe, so you should be more cautious."
Mei Yan's words made Bu'er nod his head. "Okay, I'll dig a pond under the rock wall. Go back and tell Chief Ling Yun not to worry too much about us. If your tribe really has no water to survive, you're welcome to stay with us for a while."
Mei Yan listened to Bu'er's words and felt that he was still too relaxed, but he had already reminded him of everything he could say.
"If there's a water shortage in the future, we can dig deeper underground. Our clan leader said we can find groundwater within a few dozen meters."
Buer nodded, not seeming to take it to heart.
He looked back at the river beside the Rat Tribe and thought that maybe there really wasn't a problem.
"Then I'll leave quickly. I still need to warn other tribes."
Mei Yan cannot leave Xinlan for too long. If he goes out to notify two tribes at once, time will be very tight.
After Buerliumeyan had a full meal with the rat tribe, he sent him away.
When Mei Yan returned to the tribe, the well had been dug more than ten meters deep, but there was still no water source.
"Chief, can we really dig up water using this method? I have already told the two tribes." Mei Yan was a little worried. If there was no water underground, the prestige and reputation of their tribe would be damaged.
