The Survival of the Wild Tribe

Luo Zhen carefully put the crystal fruit in a wooden box with a layer of soft animal skin. Luo Zhen was worried that the crystal fruit would rot, but did not wrap it in animal skins, but a winter has passed, these two crystals The fruit seems to have just been picked, crystal clear and very beautiful.

These two crystal fruits Luo Zhen have never known what effect they have. Since he fainted once, he has always been able to carefully control his ability to identify plants. He has never fainted again due to excessive power consumption. Naturally, there is no need to take these two crystal fruits that were finally recovered from Lu Ming.

He picked up one and took a closer look, but couldn’t see anything unusual. He first changed the water for the Tai Sui basin, and then put one of the crystal fruit in the basin, although he wanted to cut the crystal fruit. Let’s see if Tai Sui can absorb the energy in the Jingguo, but if Tai Sui can’t absorb it, won’t he waste the Jingguo for nothing?

After thinking about it again and again, Luo Zhen still intends to put the whole Jingguo in the water. Jingguo is not afraid of blisters. If it doesn't work, he can pick it up and put it away.

It didn't take long for Hei Ya who had dealt with the flame ants remaining on the river bank also came back, and Hei Fu, who had just returned from hunting, followed behind him.

After the spring, hunting activities in the tribe were changed to once every two days. Sometimes they would hunt directly in the basin, and sometimes they would enter the mountains. There are antler horses to help the warriors transport their prey. Now, as long as one warrior goes hunting, the whole thing can be solved. There is a food problem for the tribe. Of course, if he enters the mountains to hunt, Lu Zhan will still arrange a team of two for safety, so that he can take care of him anyway.

"Is it okay?" Luo Zhen handed the leftover big thistle to Heiya. Heiya's hand was also bitten several times. Apart from the broken skin and a little blood, there were no other wounds.

Hei Ya shook his head, stretched out his hand to buckle a little bit of thistle mud and smeared it on the back of his injured hand, looking at Lu Zhan who was bandaged and slightly funny, "What's the matter? How could you get so many flame ants? Entangled?"

Although Lu Zhan is a half-orc, the people in the Riyao tribe know how strong his strength is. If he encounters flame ants, at his speed, he can completely shake off flame ants, how could he still be affected by so many flame ants? Climb on top?

Lu Zhan and Luo Zhen glanced at each other. Although they had hidden the fact that they had kicked the flame ant nest before winter, how the flame ants ambush themselves and how they got rid of them all explained to them in detail.

Heifu’s complexion is not very good either. Although the flame ants are afraid of fire, they are not afraid of water. They have a very sensitive sense of smell. They are small-minded and still hold grudges. Coupled with their strong vitality, as long as their heads can’t fall off, their limbs are broken The legs can continue to live, even if the flame ants on the other side of the river are temporarily attracted by the smell remaining on Lu Zhan's animal skins, once they find that they can't find the prey they are looking at, it will be a matter of time before they want to turn back.

"I'm going to pick the insect repellent plants back now." Heifu stood up, and now the sky was dark, but the weather was clear these two days, and it happened to meet the full moon, even at night, according to the vision of the orc warriors, this moonlight It's enough for them to see things.

"I'll go with you, the place where the insecticide plants grow is too far, and it is not safe for you to go alone." Hei Ya also stood up, and if they set off now, they will be able to come back before the morning, so they can get it earlier. The same thing that can defend against flame ants comes back.

Luo Zhen took out the jerky made in the morning and let the two fill their stomachs before setting off. The two were not welcome. After the jerky was wiped out, one person carrying a huge animal skin backpack, turned into a prototype and rushed into the boundless area. In the dark, their prototype speed is much faster than the human form.

After finishing the day’s work, Luo Zhen simply took a shower in the bathroom next door separated by wooden boards. The staghorn horse has quietly nested on the animal skin blanket in the corner and rested with his eyes closed. Two adult cuckoo birds have already Separated by Luo Zhen with another wooden cage, there are several bird eggs in the animal skin bird nest. The female cuckoo is nesting in the nest, and the male cuckoo is standing next to it, occasionally waking up. Use your bird to gently comb your partner's hair.

After checking the Tai Sui and Jingguo in the basin, there would be no change in such a short time. Luo Zhen planned to put the Jingguo in it for three days, and then give up if there is no effect.

In the dead of night, except for the bugs in the grass outside the house which are still screaming tirelessly, the animals and humans living in the house have fallen into deep sleep.

A flame ant, not much bigger than a pinky finger, came in through the crack of the door. The two tentacles on its head turned upside down in mid-air, as if discerning something, and hovered at the door for a long time. Walk slowly in.

Although some sprinkled polygonum powder was sprinkled around the house, it was obvious that these things could not stop the winged mosquitoes. Mosquitoes that were hungry for a winter were very fierce, and no matter how they were driven away, they still flew around people reluctantly.

Lu Zhan is a physique that does not provoke mosquitoes. Those mosquitoes seem to have a natural fear of each other. In order to get a good night's sleep, Luo Zhen almost fell asleep at night when he fell asleep.

The flame ant crawled along the foot of the bed onto the wooden bed. The soft animal skin blocked the flame ant's figure. Without paying attention, there was no small thing on the wooden bed.

It stood on the edge of the wooden bed for a while, and then crawled to the two sleeping people. It didn’t take long to climb, but it was blocked by an arm. The moonlight outside the window fell on that arm obliquely, reflecting the arm very much. White, as if glowing.

This is not the smell of an enemy. The flame ant's tentacles were shaking slightly, and he came to his own conclusion.

But compared to the enemy close at hand, the flame ant obviously wants to take a bite of the arm in front of him. It is obviously just an ordinary human. Why does it smell so fragrant? The flame ant stood tangled in front of his arm, wondering whether he should taste the delicacy in front of him first, or bypass the delicacy and give the hateful enemy a bite first.

However, this incident obviously did not keep the flame ant entangled for too long. Soon it got close to the arm that seemed to be glowing, opened its mouthparts wide, bit it on the arm, and then sent out a subtle , The voice of satisfaction.

Flame ants secrete a liquid that paralyzes their prey, and the lasting effect is very long. Sometimes it gnaws the prey alive, and the prey may not feel the pain.

A bit of bright red liquid flowed out of the wound bitten by the flame ant. The flame ant turned upside down. It relaxed the strength of its mouth. It did not directly tear off the bite and swallow it as it did with other prey. Little by little, little by little, the drop of blood that came out was sucked clean, until there was no blood from the wound, and then it stopped still inexplicably.

After the flame ant finished drinking, it turned back and forth along the arm for several times, as if a little bit reluctant. It seemed to have forgotten the purpose of its trip, and quickly climbed down the ground along the foot of the bed, and quickly got through the crack in the door. I got out of the house, and the weeds disappeared in the corner of the house.

The screaming insect hiding in the grass seemed to be frightened, there was a commotion, and soon calmed down.

Luo Zhen turned around. After being bitten by the flame ant, his arms that appeared a little red and swollen were retracted, lying on Lu Zhan's waist, as if he didn't have the slightest sense of what he had been bitten.

As soon as the sky turned dark, Heifu and Heiya came back with dew on their backs. The animal skin backpacks on their backs were stuffed with bulges. In addition to the insecticide they need, there are many that are only available in this season. The wild fruits, but most of these wild fruits have not yet reached the maturity season, very sour, sometimes people in the tribe will use these wild fruits as condiments.

Although the taste of the prepared food is unsatisfactory, it is at least much better than only salted fruit.

After waking up, Luo Zhen saw the redness and swelling from the bite on his arm. He barked his teeth. Then he looked at Lu Zhan, who had a normal face. He was very envious. He also wanted to have a physique that would not be bitten by mosquitoes.

Luo Zhen had a sweet dream in his heart, licked his lips, went out to deal with those insect repellent plants, and prepared new Polygonum vulgare powder. I hope that these things can not only stop the flame ants, but also better isolate those nasty mosquitoes. Outside the tribe.

Less than a month after the spring, the weeds in the basin began to bloom one after another, and they were colorful, like a fairyland, which greatly facilitated Luo Zhen to find edible things from these various wild flowers. .

Flame ants haven't reappeared in this period of time. I don't know if it's because of the sprinkling of Polygonum vulgaris powder and the insecticide plants all around the tribe.

Luo Zhen also opened a few plots behind the wooden house. During this time, he also found a lot of wild vegetables on the mountains around the basin. Among them, the radishes and wild onions that surprised him most were the radishes and wild onions. Although the number was not very large, As long as the seeds are successfully retained, at least these plots of land can be planted with seeds next time. Luo Zhen is still very satisfied with this point.

There is also a paddy field next to the fish pond. The terrain here is low and you can draw water directly from the creek. When you don’t need it, you can use mud to block it, which is very convenient.

Now there are some sages and horseshoes planted in the paddy field. These are all found on the shallows where mud bricks were made. Luo Zhen was worried that he would die, so he only transplanted half of them into the paddy field, and left them in place. wild.

During this period of time, enough mud bricks have been exposed, Luo Zhen intends to continue building construction for the tribe, but he thought about it again and again, and after discussing with the warriors in the tribe, he decided to put the mud brick house aside. Plan to build a wall for the tribe first.

Naturally, the construction of the fence cannot just enclose a few wooden houses in the tribe like the ice city wall in winter. After all, the fence made of mud bricks and stones is not like ice blocks and can only be used for one winter to melt, but to consider the future The size of the tribe may expand.

Luo Zhen has already planned the prototype. The area of ​​the entire wall occupies almost one-fifth of the area of ​​the basin. After the number of people in the tribe increases, just build a new house directly inside the wall.

It is a pity that the wall is not a small project, and it consumes a lot of manpower. In addition to the large area of ​​the wall, it is much more difficult than the original ice city wall. Luo Zhen once again sighed that there are too few people in their tribe.

The author has something to say: The second update may not be finished tonight, you don’t have to wait, come see tomorrow, sorry_(:з」∠)_
