Orcs’ Time Through Time - Chapter 52

To be honest, I also thought that if someone in the tribe walks with me, we will find a more suitable place, start to build our own tribe, and then start to develop and grow the tribe. I even thought about what the new tribe will do, how it will do it, how it will plan, how it will develop in the future, and so on.

But now when asked by Canaan, I am a little uncertain.

In fact, I like the terrain very much. One is that it is not easy to encounter landslides because we are on a relatively flat platform, and the mountains behind are not very high; on the other hand, we don’t have to worry about rising water, because we are in The platform is not easy to be submerged by water, and it is in a place surrounded by mountains on two sides, one facing the water and the other is a plain. In fact, it can be regarded as a very good land. If you settle on the plain, it is definitely not as good as that. environmental. And, most importantly, there is a salt cave here, which solves everyone’s demand for salt. Although it seems that the Yuzu people did not have much desire for salt in the past, the human body is inseparable from salt. Salt can replenish one’s physical strength, and salt is also an important condiment and an important material for storing supplies. It’s just that it’s not easy to find another place like this or even better.

Perhaps seeing my embarrassment, Canaan sat down next to me: “I know a place surrounded by mountains on three sides. There is a relatively large terrace in the middle of the mountain. Although the center of the terrace is lower, there is a mountain in the middle. The creek that flows out in the middle, under the platform is a plain, a very wide plain, in front of the plain is a river, much wider than what we see here, the mountain descends through the small stream in the middle of the platform and finally flows into the river. Go. The river separates the entire plateau and the plain from the opposite bank, and there is only a small opening that can enter the plain on this side through the plain on the other side.”

He and I used stones to show the terrain he said, “There are wide depressions on both sides of the river, and there are very lush vegetation growing on the depressions, and there should be many animals on the plain.”

As he gestured, he looked at me from time to time: “Standing on the mountain and looking at the other side of the river, all the places you can see are plains. Although there is no lake, it is not worse than here, and the mountains there are deeper and more secluded than here. Probably no one has lived for many years, and the mountains behind are getting higher and higher. All you can see are the continuous mountains and towering trees. Without wings, it is difficult to come from behind by walking on foot. There should be no people living on the mountain. But from the relatively flat terrace, you can climb the back mountain to hunt. We males can also go hunting on the opposite plain. The only inconvenience is probably to cross the river. But we can all fly, we can hump things and people over. It’s about 30 days away from here. If you walk fast, you can arrive in about 30 days. If a male comes from the air, it’s about ten. The sky can be there too.”

After thinking about it, he seemed to be afraid that I would disagree and say in general: “I probably told Patriarch Luo Lei.”

When I heard this, I was a little surprised. I don’t know when Canaan and Luo Lei actually had such a good communication? I don’t know what they said about it. Although I don’t know if it’s a mountain plain or the sea from the foot of the mountain all the way through the plain, or it’s a fault tectonic landform, but the geographical environment should be good.

Behind and on the side of the platform are mountains stretching upwards. The huge river flowing from the side of the mountains and the mountains behind them together become a natural barrier. At the turn of the mountain is a large platform. In front of the platform are plains and depressions. The depressions extend along both sides of the river. At the lower reaches of the river, the mountain turns again. The protruding part and the river just form a natural Even if you want to defend the pass, you only need to build a defense here. It can be said to be a very geographically advantageous place.

But, even so, if there is no salt, I would still be entangled. Although everyone didn’t care about salt very much in the past, if time goes on, especially if everyone starts to eat more and more vegetables and wheat to fill their stomachs, salt is still necessary. You can’t just rely on the salt in the animal’s blood, right? If you want to exchange salt with people, you must have a place nearby where you can get salt.

But at the moment, I don’t know where there is a better place. We can only do this for the time being, so I nodded to him: “Well, this is a very good idea. This idea is basically feasible. I don’t know if there is any. How can I get salt?” Although I didn’t have much hope for the salt matter, I still asked meaningfully. If it doesn’t work, I have to find another way.

I may be a little surprised why I mentioned salt in particular, because during the period when they lived in the Hindus, we did not specifically ask them to move salt, but they put it in the dishes when they were eating with other people in the clan. Salt, I also gave them some salt. In the beginning they were not used to putting salt in the meat. They only added some salt to the meat when they were dried and to prevent the meat from spoiling. So now they probably have not developed the habit of eating other salt.

In fact, before finding this salt cave, according to Luo Lei, most of the tribe also relied on meat to supplement the salt. I also understand that if it is not for eating vegetables, the salt in animal meat and blood also has a certain effect on humans, although it is not completely enough. But in fact, eating salt more appropriately can better supplement one’s physical strength and make people less fatigued. And I still advocate that everyone should eat vegetables appropriately and not use meat as the staple food, so it is inevitable to supplement salt from special channels.

Canaan also paused for a moment. After thinking for a while, he said, “When we came here before, I found out there. I don’t know if there is any salt.”

I know that he said this is a more honest statement, so I nodded, indicating that I already know, and while discussing with him, we will go there first, and then look for the nearest salt mine nearby. If not, we have to think of another way. Fortunately, it will take ten days for a male to fly over. If it doesn’t work, I can let the male open a hole in the mountain near the salt cave here to get salt.

In fact, I would also like to ask him why they didn’t settle there at that time? But think about it, maybe they have their reasons, so they didn’t say anything.

But Canaan, who has been looking at me, seemed to be aware of it, and a little embarrassed to speak to himself: “When we came here, although we thought about whether to settle there, it was the dry season and we had nothing. No, there were no tents or anything. There were no large animals in the depressions over there. We were tired of having to leave every time we settled down for so long, so we just wanted to find a place first. Eat and drink enough, let everyone rest and rest…”

I probably also understand that the anger of being burned all the things, every time they settle down, there is no good fruit desolation, and it probably made them not think of starting from nothing at that time and establishing a new tribe. Although this may be difficult for some people to understand, for someone who has nothing and is angry at heart, I still nodded.

After a night’s rest, everyone was refreshed. After breakfast, everyone became more energetic.

Although most of the people here are the original Yuzu people, I still have some effect in my words. In fact, if I insist on speaking, these Yuzu people who are straightforward and mostly used to go straight by force are relatively loyal. In addition, Simmu and Bello’s family, Monte and Ley, and the others, so everyone decided to be under my command for the time being, Bello and Canaan assisted.

I told everyone about Canaan’s idea, and announced my thoughts on things like salt, and proposed that if there is no salt cave there, we can consider seeing where the nearest salt cave is nearby. In fact, there is no salt nearby. We can also consider that there is a hole on the back of the salt cave here, and how often it means to send people to fetch salt.

Everyone didn’t have much attachment to salt, and they were also very interested in that place, so they all decided to go there and start.

Because the place Canaan said is a little bit upstream of the place where we are, Canaan also said that there is a shallower place in the upper reaches of the river for the ox cart to pass smoothly, and that it is closer to our destination. , And in order that we will not be short of water on the way, we also plan to walk up the river first, and then cross the river to a place that is closer to the other river and the water is shallower.

Considering that Luo Lei said he would also come, so I probably also intentionally or unintentionally reduced the speed of travel. As a result, it’s not like everyone is rushing to settle there, but it’s like going out for fun.

At this point, the children are probably the happiest.

Although the original children of the Yu clan had all gone out, the children from the Yi clan, including A Rui, seldom went out. Such a large grassland and the bison herd walking in the distance would let them Excited enough, A Rui also issued a major ambition, saying that he must give me a bison in the future.

Since they have never heard of it, I have no feeling for them yelling “cow, cow, sheep, big sheep” in my ear. Just sat in front of the car with Monte who helped.

Because Aman and Alin from Beiluo’s family brought their children and three younger children from Youzu and Arui to my car, and many things in the car were put in the bullock cart. Go, but even if most of the things in the car are moved to the car over there, the space in most of the car still seems a bit small. So Aman hugged Ah Xing and squeezed in the back half of the car, and a few children squeezed in the front half of the car. The children were also very happy when they were huddled together. The chirping along the way didn’t stop at all. Feel tired.

The other bullock cart was full of dangling things, driven by Ley and Simmu, with Yejia who volunteered to protect the car and Rona who was pulled over by Yejia.

I used to think that Ye Jia was thirteen or four years old. Later I learned that Ye Jia was actually only nine years old. But seeing that he is half a head taller than Rona, it can be seen that children and children are incomparable. Rona is probably because of his bear genes. Although they are strong, they are not tall. As for Ye Jia, he is tall, but thin. Now he has some meat, and he was thinner before.

Although the two young people are still young, they are still not sloppy. Although the car is noisy, the two children in that car are still sitting quietly. Ye Jia looks at the front and occasionally follows him. The tribesmen walking in the bullock cart chatted and asked what were the questions. Rona was sitting looking at the sky, as if waiting for something.

Lukas, Hongda and Mohe took turns flying to the sky to check the terrain and the situation ahead. For safety, besides letting everyone who walks on the ground wear shoes that they only wear in winter, I also asked Canaan and Achi’s Abba Lulu, headed by Canaan, to hold the wooden fork I prepared separately and open it first. The grass next to it moves further.

Because we didn’t go too fast, so after a day and a half, I heard Rona’s shout: “Stop, stop, Abba, it’s Abba!”

When I looked up, I saw a somewhat familiar figure flying into the distance in the air, making me slightly startled.
