Survival of Prehistoric Widows [Farming] - Chapter 69

When migrating, the Redwood tribe was not sure whether the divine punishment would completely devour the place where they were.

But judging from the speed of the divine punishment spreading, even if the divine punishment did not completely swallow them, as a pioneer of divine punishment, the accompanying drought would make the area unable to survive.

This time, Lu Wei asked them to go to the tribe’s old site to find copper ore, and he himself did not have much confidence in the tribe’s survival. It’s just that searching for a known location is more reliable than searching aimlessly.

It is not too surprising that the Mahogany Tribe was not swallowed by God’s punishment, but the description of this orc is a bit weird.

“Along our previous fields?” Lu Ling repeated suspiciously, frowning in thought.

Let the orc outline roughly on the ground. Despite the crooked and crooked painting of this orc, the traces of the divine punishment can still be seen close to their farmland.

Lu Wei looked at it for a long time, and finally a guess flashed in his mind: Does their farmland have the effect of blocking divine punishment?

The location of the copper mine that Li discovered was behind the protection of the farmland, so it was not affected by the divine punishment at all. Lu Wei asked the orc who reported the news to take two more orcs and drag a car to bring the copper mine back.

Then Lu Yan looked at the horn, and subconsciously touched the Lingshui ring he was wearing in his woolen knuckles: “Jiao, what do you think?”

Whether it was the chili pepper discovered by the divine envoy or the redwood tribe farmland that blocked the divine punishment, it proved that they seemed to have inadvertently mastered something that could fight the divine punishment.

At first, Lu Er thought it was spiritual water, but the pepper seeds irrigated with spiritual water did not germinate immediately on the land of God’s punishment.

Jiao had witnessed Lu Er’s reclamation experience from the very beginning, and set his gaze on Lu Er’s ring, frowning and thinking for a moment: “It must be related to Lingshui.”

“But it should not only be related to Lingshui.” Lu Wei put his gaze on Jiao’s body, stared at him for a long time, and suddenly a thought flashed through, “Mi, do you want to pull Baba?”

Jiao suddenly heard this shameful address, and his face suddenly became a little embarrassed: “How did you mention this?”

He is obviously not Xiao Mi now!

But immediately he reacted and frowned, “You mean it has something to do with me?”

“There must be a close relationship between the heart of life and divine punishment, and the solution is not strange in the heart of life.” Lu Yan touched his stomach, thoughtfully, “I guess it might be spiritual water and life. The combination of the heart has the effect of blocking divine punishment.”

At the time, Xiao Mila’s baba was buried in the ground as fertilizer by Lu Er.

“Isn’t it that we planted a circle of grain on the edge of God’s punishment, so we don’t have to worry about God’s punishment spreading?”

“Or maybe…you can plant trees directly on the land punished by God, and take back the devoured land little by little.”

The two people said and looked at each other, and quickly pieced together a rather bright prospect.

Finally, Lu Yan looked in the direction of the old tribe site and sighed, “I really want to go there and take a look for myself.”

At present, these are just speculations, and some experiments have to be done to verify whether their conjectures are correct.

As soon as the words came out, the corner suddenly became tense: “You can’t go out now.”

“I know, I just said it.” Lu Er patted the arm of the corner helplessly, “Wait until the child is born. Now we are busy with spring plowing, and we don’t have the energy to go there to farm…wait until the summer. .”

“Summer?” Jiao chewed the vocabulary questioningly, and guessed, “Is it your name by time?”

“Well, the seasons related to agriculture are not only divided into cold seasons and warm seasons, but can be roughly divided into four seasons: spring, summer, autumn and winter, and then the twenty-four solar terms can be divided in detail.” A line was drawn on the ground to tell him the division of farming solar terms.

…

In addition to spring plowing and planting, the salt in the tribe is almost used.

But they already have a complete method of making salt this time, and they don’t need to exchange it with other tribes. Before the arrival of the cold season last year, Teng, who is very important to salt, had sent people to find salt-alkali land, salt mines, and saline lakes suitable for salt production, so that they could make salt at any time.

After the cold season was over, Teng found some orcs to make salt in the place he had explored before.

Because they only needed to prepare the salt they needed, the salt mining team quickly returned with a trailer of salt.

There was an unexpected guest who came back with them.

The Tooth Tribe sent orcs again.

This time the orcs seem to be much more loyal than the last time they came. After seeing Teng, they quickly expressed their intentions: “Teng, we want to learn about planting from you.”

Teng was a little strange: “Didn’t you change corn and soybeans last year?”

“It’s not those, we still want other seeds.” The orc scratched his head and smiled honestly. “We found a new kind of plant, it feels edible, but it is not good to grow, so we want to learn from you. a bit.”

As he said, he took out a handful of pale yellow seeds from the animal skin pocket on his waist and handed it to Teng to see, “That’s it.”

Teng took it over and looked at it and didn’t see anything. He thought for a while: “Most of the planting in the tribe is done by our witch doctor. Go and ask him.

The orc’s eyes lit up: “I’ve heard of the witch doctor of the Redwood Tribe! Is it called Green Ear?”

As the Jufang tribe learned farming from the Redwood tribe and successfully harvested food, Lu Er’s reputation spread among nearby tribes.

Everyone said that there was a witch doctor in the Redwood Tribe, who knew everything, and developed weird ways to grow a lot of food from the ground, which is more profitable than going out hunting.

Look at how many populations and tribes of other tribes were forced to abandon due to divine punishment this time, and how many tribes were lost. The redwood tribe and the giant tooth tribe arrived in their new homes intact, and the redwood tribe even absorbed a lot of bulk orcs on the way!

How did they do that?

Compared with other tribes, the Juya tribe feels the joy of farming. Not only does it expand the scale of farming this year, but also finds new plants in various ways, and intends to research and plant it on its own like the Hongmu tribe.

Without Lu’s modern breeding concepts and spiritual water assistance, the cultivation and cultivation of new crops have failed. That’s why the Juya tribe planned to come and ask Lu Er.

These days, Lu Lin was just idle and bored. He took the seeds of the orcs from the Tusk Tribe and looked at it. The more he looked at it, the more pleasant it was. He suppressed his inner excitement and let the man go out first. Ask him to stay in the Redwood Tribe for a few more days. Research and see.

When only Lu Er and Jiao were left, Lu Er found a flowerpot to plant the seeds, and gently watered the spirit water.

The tender green seedlings broke out of the soil and quickly grew taller, bearing scattered ears.

Looking at the excitement of Lu Yan, he was a little strange. He came over and looked at the plants in the flowerpot, and then reached out his hand and poked it gently: “It looks a bit like a millet, what is this?”

Lu Yan looked at the ears with uncontrollable joy in his expressions, and forced to calm down and explain: “If I’m not mistaken, this should be wheat.”

–wheat!

Wheat means flour, and flour means colorful and all kinds of pasta.

In other words, he can change his taste!

Jiao couldn’t understand Lu Er’s longing for pasta, but he could see the importance of this plant called wheat. Seeing that Lu Er was so excited, Jiao was also happy a lot.

But after a while, he put away his smile and looked serious: “You can’t go to work on the ground now.”

Lu Er was picking up a piece of ear to check the state of the ear of wheat. He was taken aback when he heard the words: “Huh?”

“You have a big stomach now.” Jiao helped Lu Er’s waist, a trace of worry appeared in his eyes, “Really can’t work.”

Lu Ye looked at his already big belly, thinking about it, he couldn’t squat anymore, frowning, and a little unwilling: “But wheat is really important… Breeding as soon as possible, we can still catch up with this. Stubble sowing.”

Jiao thought for a while, then offered himself: “I’ll come.”

Lu Yan looked at him in surprise, and suddenly wanted to laugh, “Will you?”

“You can teach me.” Jiao leaned over and hugged Lu Er, and gently kissed Lu Er’s long ear, “I will study hard.”

Lu Er thought for a while, really laughed, turned around and kissed back softly: “Okay, let you try.”

…

For the horns who can only see how Lu Ling operates with the naked eye, the process of breeding and breeding is full of mysteries.

Simple selection and breeding is easy to understand, manual pollination, thinning and trimming make it difficult to understand simple thinking, and the techniques are not as sophisticated as Lu Er.

But Jiao still took it extremely seriously-this was something his Asian beast had studied and studied, and he must not be ashamed of Lu Yan.

Fortunately, Lu Wei patiently pointed out, and Lingshui made the cost of failure extremely low. Jiao stepped on the pit while advancing, and he actually improved the wheat a lot.

The ears of the first wheat on a plant consisted of only a dozen kernels. Through the joint efforts of Lu Lin and Jiao, the improved wheat has become plump and sturdy, which can produce a lot of heavy ears.

It was the first time that he cultivated his own improved wheat ears, and the horns were too happy. If it weren’t for the inconvenience of Lu Er’s body, he almost wanted to hug Lu Er around for a while.

Lu Er was quite satisfied with the result, and found Teng, please arrange a few orcs to plant more wheat.

At this time, most of the orcs’ fields have been planted, and the farmland planned in the original plan has basically been planted with other crops. To grow wheat, you can only reclaim the land.

At this time, Lu Wei deeply felt the biggest problem caused by the too small population of the Hongmu tribe-it was easy to be stretched during the initial exploration stage.

Horn saw Lu Er’s melancholy, thought for a while, and put forward his own suggestion: “We can absorb the stray wild orcs.”

If you count on the tribe to reproduce by itself, then the expansion of the tribe doesn’t know how long it will take. In fact, Lu Er is also considering absorbing some wild orcs, but he doesn’t know what channels are available.

“At the end of the cold season, many tribes can’t make it through, and only a few strong orcs are left.” Horn has a wandering experience for a period of time, and has more experience in this aspect than other orcs. “These orcs should be out now. Wandering, looking for tribes to join, or huddled together for warmth.”

Looking at the confident expression of Jiao Lu, he knew that he had a way: “How many can you find?”

“It is estimated that strong orcs can find a dozen or so, and there should be some orcs who will bring their weak partners.”

“Ten is enough.” Lu Ling nodded, holding Horn’s hand, his eyes full of trust, “I beg you.”

The horn couldn’t resist Lu Er’s gaze with a hint of dependence. He only felt that now the sun could pluck the Asian beast for him, and patted his chest: “Give it to me!”
