Crossing to Live in the Wilderness Plains - Chapter 206

However, Lang Yan didn’t wait long. On the third day after receiving the news, A Xiang and his party came to Qi Ze City. Together with him were A Zhang and the other dozen orcs who had exchanged with the Lion and Wolf Tribe.

A Xiang was still a little surprised when he saw the huge pothole that was connected between the two city walls. Ah Zhang had already told him how to use the pothole, but the bottom of the pothole was still wet, and there were no props that needed to be laid. Putting it in, A Xiang has not been able to imagine the effect after use with this simple framework alone.

Entering Qi Ze City along the rope ladder in mid-air, A Chu had already led someone to wait on the city wall.

Chen Qi did not attend this meeting, but Aze went.

Taking advantage of the fact that no props could be laid in the pothole, Chen Qizheng brought people to reinforce the cellar used for hiding before, reintegrated the structure in the cellar, and made ventilation and other things more secretive, and there was enough storage inside. Hundreds of people eat water and food for two or three months. There are special spices made by Chen Kai figs around, and the school is also full of ghost needles. Now is the time when the flowers are in full bloom. , Once the orcs hide in the ground several meters deep, they will never be able to smell any smell of the orcs again.

This meeting didn’t take long to discuss, most of it was about the handover between the two tribes, and within an hour, everyone hurriedly exchanged the latest news before dispersing.

A Zhang has been away for several months, but there are many things that need to be re-contacted. A Xiang handed over the matter of returning to the tribe the next day to A Yan, who followed him, and went to find his partner.

Langyan helped to water a few herbs planted in Chen Qi’s yard. He harvested a lot of wormwood seeds last time. Chen Qi expanded the planting area. In addition to wormwood, there is also a piece of land in the yard. The growth cycle of wild ginseng is much longer than that of mugwort, and it does not need to be taken care of by people. It only needs to be weeded and fertilized at intervals.

The little bun, Chen Nian, was placed in a bamboo fence by Langyan. It was similar to the cage used to keep snow geese in the past, except that it did not have a closed top. It was covered with soft animal skins and bamboo mats. The bamboo strips used were all After being carefully polished by Aze, I am not afraid of hurting the little bun.

The few-month-old Baozi was still in the stage of sleeping when he was full. Langyan had watered the ground in the yard and returned to the fence. He found that the little Baozi was spitting milk bubbles with his eyes closed, using his fingers in a funny way. Poking Xiao Baozi’s white tender face, Lang Yan packed up his things and looked at the direction of the city gate. He hadn’t seen A Xiang for several months. Knowing that the other party was busy with important things, Lang Yan could only For the moment, suppress the urge to see the other person right away.

“Wolf flame?”

An unfamiliar voice pulled back Lang Yan’s attention. Outside the courtyard stood a man dressed in ashes. Lang Yan had seen each other several times on the road, but he had never spoken or knew the other’s name. “You are?”

“My name is Ai Li, and I am also a member of the Lion and Wolf tribe.” Ai Li had no expression on his face, but he politely explained it, which made Lang Yan feel a little more favorable.

“Are you here to find Chen Qi? He’s not at home now. If you want to find him, you may go to the school to find him.” Yes, but as the patriarch’s partner, the clansmen all know Lang Yan, so Lang Yan is not too surprised that this male who claims to be the Lion and Wolf tribe can call out his name.

“I’m not looking for Chen Qi, I’m looking for you.”

“Looking for me?” Lang Yan asked in surprise.

Whether it is people from Qize City or people from the Lion and Wolf tribe, orcs often come here to look for Chen Qi. Lang Yan has long been used to it, thinking that the other party is the same as the people who usually look for Chen Qi. someone finds himself.

“Can I go in and talk?” Ai Li also knew that only Lang Yan and Xiao Baozi were left in Chen Qi’s house at this time, so he was not worried that he would suddenly encounter A Ze or Chen Qi and be embarrassed.

“Oh, of course.” Lang Yan hurriedly stepped forward and opened the fence door. He did not invite the other party into the room, but motioned for the other party to take a seat on the table under the fig tree, and picked up the teapot on the table and poured it out for the other party. A cup of tea.

The tea has been kept for a long time and has no temperature, but it is hot summer now, and the orcs don’t like hot food at this time. Although it is very impolite to serve guests with cold tea, no one cares about the beasts. a little.

He took a sip of the scented tea with a hint of sweetness. Ai Li likes the taste of these scented teas very much. It can quench his thirst, and it is much better than plain boiled water. Before, he took advantage of the blossoming of Zhu Shi in Qize City. I collected a lot of fresh flowers and dried them to make tea. Unfortunately, since the construction of the outer city wall, it is very inconvenient to enter and leave the tribe, and Aili has not been outside the plains for several months.

“Do you have anything to do with me?” Lang Yan poured himself a cup, and then asked.

Aili took out a booklet from the small cloth bag that he carried with him. The booklet was painted with patterns of various medicinal herbs. Can understand what is drawn on it. There are a lot of small words next to the pattern as labels, introducing the main functions of some herbs. Unfortunately, Aili didn’t have time to study the words systematically, and he couldn’t understand the meaning of what was written on it.

Opening the booklet, Ai Li pointed to several of the medicinal herbs with his finger, including mugwort and wild ginseng. They are all of the few plants currently planted in Qize City and the seed stock is not much.

Lang Yan looked in the direction of the other person’s finger in confusion, and before he could ask what Ai Li meant, Ai Li said straight to the point: “I have been helping to take care of the crops on the wasteland for several months, and you too Knowing that these things can only be grown by using seeds. These crops are not easy to find. If our tribe can plant some, then there is no need to worry about the injury and illness of the tribe. “

Lang Yan raised his head, looked at Ai Li’s serious expression, and asked uncertainly, “Do you want Qi Zecheng to give us some seeds for us to plant? It’s almost winter now, and we’ve missed the time for planting. Bar?”

“Have you been to the conservatory these few days? They tested it in the days when the conservatory was just completed, and they could keep the temperature in the room within a certain range, which is why the people in Qi Ze City wanted to keep animals in captivity. Although We can’t make a greenhouse like them now, but it is still feasible to plant a few crops indoors. During this time, I have learned a lot about planting crops. As long as it is successful, before the next summer comes, we will A batch of seeds can be harvested, which will give us enough time to have two crops in the summer.”

“There aren’t many of these kinds of seeds, right? I heard that A Xiang didn’t bring anything in exchange for this time. What should we use in exchange for these seeds?” Lang Yan frowned slightly and hesitated for a moment. Qize City is probably not short of things that need to be exchanged with their tribe.

“It’s not an exchange.” Ai Li shook his head, “At present, only Chen Qi has these seeds in the entire Qi Ze City. Chen Qi had arranged a copy of the mugwort grass and gave it to our tribe, but because of the number of them they planted There are not many, so the number given to us is relatively small. If people in the tribe have fever one after another like the last time, this alone is not enough. I heard people say before that in order to avoid planting When the crops of the plant die unexpectedly, Chen Qi will set aside some seeds every time just in case. I have observed during this period that the survival rate of several newly planted herbs is very good. After the first snow, the winter begins. I should be able to ripen a batch before, so I won’t be afraid of running out of seeds. In this case, it is better to give us the batch of seeds that Chen Qi had stored before. Of course, if the other party wants to exchange, I can also bring it with me in the summer of next year. What he needs to exchange with him, this time can be regarded as the thing we got in advance in exchange.”

Listening to Aili talking about his plan, Lang Yan fell into deep thought, “Do you mean to ask me to ask Chen Qiyao? Since you have this idea, why don’t you tell him face-to-face?”

After finishing what he thought in one breath, Aili felt a bit dry in his throat. He drank the tea in the cup, and wiped the water from the corner of his mouth with his hand, “I don’t have a good relationship with him, you are the patriarch’s partner, There are also more contacts with Chen Qi, so it will be easier for you to tell.”

“I’ll discuss this matter with A Xiang first. There are not many kinds of herbs in Qi Zecheng. Even if you can’t get seeds, don’t worry too much. When the construction of the tribe is finished, we can send people next summer. Go outside and look for it.” Lang Yan refilled the empty teacup and comforted him.

Aili nodded, and after finishing what he wanted to say, he got up and planned to leave.

The little bun in the enclosure has woken up, and the little orc has been able to crawl for several months. The space in the enclosure is several times larger than that of the cradle. The little bun turned around the edge a few times on all fours. His eyes looked curiously at the two adults who were talking outside, and when he saw one of them was leaving, he didn’t know what he was talking about.

Aili’s eyes stayed on Xiao Baozi’s body for a while, then pushed open the fence gate and strode away from the place.

When A Xiang finally arrived after the meeting, Lang Yan had already started to feed the freshly boiled milk fruit to the little bun. Seeing his partner holding a strange little bun in his arms, A Xiang’s heart couldn’t help but jump. Fortunately, the long-lost reunion made Lang Yan not aware of the other party’s strange expression, but Lang Yan did not forget what Ai Li said. A Xiang only pondered for a while, and then planned to ask Chen Qi’s opinion directly after Chen Qi returned.

Of course, after listening to the words of the two, Chen Qi went back to his room without saying a word, turned out the spare seeds he had stored before, and gave them all the herb seeds. Although these things are rare, they are not to be found. , and the crops planted in the ground are currently growing well, Chen Qi doesn’t care about this seed.
