MTL - This Is My Primitive Tribe-Chapter 13 wasteland farming
The day after the sacrifice, Jiang Xuan tested his strength in front of the bamboo house.
I saw him hold a large stone in his arms, slowly stand up, and hold it above his head!
This stone is less than three or four hundred kilograms. If it is changed to Jiang Xuan before, let alone hold it, even if it is moved, it cannot be moved, but now he can lift it over his head without shaking his hands.
"Boom!"
Jiang Xuan threw the big stone out, and a big hole was smashed into the ground.
Jiang Xuan looked at his hands in surprise, this is a powerful force!
Afterwards, he walked into the bamboo forest to test his speed.
With a "whoosh", he easily climbed onto a thick bamboo, and jumped between the bamboos, like an ape, very flexible.
After a while, he landed again and walked to Chi Shao who was standing beside him.
"Sister, with my current strength and speed, how many warriors are you?"
In the tribes of the Southern Wilderness, when the tribesmen become warriors, they usually draw lines in five colors on their faces to distinguish warriors of different strengths. One-color warriors are the weakest and five-color warriors are the strongest.
For example, a warrior of one color uses green paint to draw a line across his face.
Two-color warriors use green and red to draw two lines on their faces, three-color warriors draw three lines, and so on.
The stronger the strength, the more lines and richer colors are drawn on the face.
These lines are also a kind of glory for tribal warriors. The more lines, the more resources and the worship of the tribe can be obtained in the tribe.
Jiang Xuan really wanted to know, with his current strength and speed, what kind of warriors are he considered.
Chi Shao said seriously, "It's a warrior of one color."
"Only the same color?" Jiang Xuan was stunned, obviously not expecting such a low level.
Chi Shao nodded and said, "Don't underestimate the one-color warrior, the strongest leader of the deer tribe is only a three-color warrior."
Jiang Xuan asked again, "What about you, sister? What kind of warrior are you now?"
"I'm also a fighter."
Chi Shao pointed at Uncaria, Shiloh, and Nanxing, and said, "The five of us are all warriors of one color."
"That's not right!" Jiang Xuan asked suspiciously, "Didn't my sister join a hunting party before? I thought it would be much better than us."
"I'm not much stronger than you."
"It is said that when the deer tribe was strong in the past, only by becoming a soldier of the same color could they be qualified to enter the hunting team."
"But in recent years, the deer tribe has declined, and there are not enough soldiers. The requirements are getting lower and lower. Later, as long as they are thirteen years old, all able-bodied clansmen can join the hunting team."
"I also only went in last year. I didn't expect that after only staying there for half a year, the tribe would be gone."
Speaking of this, Chi Shao's mood was obviously a little low, and Uncaria and others were also silent. The demise of the deer tribe was the pain in their hearts.
Jiang Xuandao: "Sister, don't worry, we will definitely seek revenge from the Crow Tribe when our Vine Tribe becomes stronger in the future!"
"Um!"
Chi Shao nodded heavily, and the three teenagers also clenched their fists, burning the flame of revenge in their hearts.
Jiang Xuan asked again, "Then how can you become a two-color or even a three-color warrior?"
Chi Shao replied, "I heard from the hunting team that a one-color warrior only needs to be twice as strong and fast as a normal clan. To become a two-color warrior, you need to hunt an adult wild boar alone."
"The three-color warrior needs to hunt an adult bison alone, and the four-color warrior needs to hunt a megalodon alone."
"As for the five-color warrior, you need to hunt a wild bear alone!"
The two-color warrior actually needs to hunt an adult wild boar alone!
Jiang Xuan was shocked by Chi Shao's words.
That is to say, a two-color warrior must at least have the strength and speed, reaction ability, and fighting ability that exceed that of an adult wild boar, so that he can hunt an adult wild boar alone.
The wild boar in this world is an extremely dangerous beast. An adult wild boar can weigh more than a thousand kilograms.
Wild boars have sharp fangs, extremely fast running speed, thick fur, and a fierce personality.
Especially when it is injured, it is almost not afraid of death, and ordinary beasts have to shy away.
The wild boar also likes to rub it on the pine trees, and its fur is covered with thick turpentine, as if it is wearing a soft armor. Ordinary weapons, such as stone spears and bone spears, are difficult to deal with unless they pierce the eyes, backyard and other vital points. It deals fatal damage.
You can imagine the difficulty of hunting an adult wild boar alone.
As for the bison, megalodon, and wild bear, each one is more terrifying than the other, and the current vine tribes do not have the ability to hunt them.
"Then how can we improve our strength?" Jiang Xuan asked again.
"Training, hunting, and eating more meat can gradually increase your strength. However, I heard that if you can eat the meat of some exotic beasts, or eat the fruits of some exotic plants, your strength can increase faster."
"Also, just like yesterday, getting a gift from the gods during sacrifices can quickly improve your strength."
Jiang Xuan took all the words Chishao said in his heart, especially about the ways to improve his strength.
Jiang Xuan is very clear that the stronger the strength, the longer he will have the chance to live in this dangerous world, and the longer he will live, the longer he will have time to develop the Vine tribe.
After figuring this out, Jiang Xuan started to get busy with other things.
It's spring, and it's a good time to cultivate the land in spring!
Jiang Xuan plans to open up a wasteland in front of the bamboo house to try to grow food and vegetables.
Planting and farming is a more stable and more method of obtaining food than hunting and gathering.
Jiang Xuan plans to start farming, and if it goes well, he will develop aquaculture in the future to increase the food source for the tribe.
Jiang Xuan returned to the house and picked up the bones, called Chi Shao and others, and walked to a clearing in front of the bamboo forest.
Jiang Xuandao: "Cut down all these weeds, and they will all be burned later."
"Okay, chief, look at us."
The three teenagers have just become fighters of one color, and they are looking for opportunities to perform, and they are not afraid of hard work.
They swung the scorpion wildly, swept away all the dry weeds in this open space, and pressed them all to the ground.
Then, under Jiang Xuan's command, they shoveled out a fire belt around them, so as not to ignite other places when the weeds were burned.
In the end, Jiang Xuan returned to the bamboo house to get a burning firewood and set the weeds on fire.
"Crackling, crackling, crackling..."
The flames burned quickly, because the weeds were pressed to the ground, and the fire belts were arranged in advance, and there was no strong wind. As long as you watched carefully, it would not burn to other places.
"Boss, what are you burning these weeds for?" Uncaria asked curiously.
Jiang Xuan replied, "Reclaim wasteland and cultivate land."
"Oh, I see."
Tribal people also cultivate the land, but they are still in the most primitive stage of slash-and-burn cultivation.
They will choose a large area, burn the plants and trees, then use the plant ashes as fertilizer, dig a random hole with bone stalks or other tools, and bury the seeds.
This way of planting, the yield is appallingly low, but the advantage is that it does not take much time and energy. After all, the food source of the tribesmen is still mostly hunting and gathering.
Uncaria and the others thought that Jiang Xuan also wanted to farm in this way, however, they soon realized that they were wrong.
After half an hour, the weeds and small shrubs in the open space were all burnt, and the ground was covered with a thick layer of grass ash.
This open space is about 100 square meters, neither big nor small. Jiang Xuan plans to open it up and grow edible wild or tuber plants.
"Hey..."
Jiang Xuan stepped on the crossbar and easily stepped Gushen's shovel into the soil, then turned a piece of soil over, and then continued to dig a piece of soil.
Uncaria couldn't help but asked again: "Boss, after burning it, wouldn't it be enough to dig a small hole and bury the seeds?"
Jiang Xuandao: "Turn the soil over to loosen the soil, so that what we plant will grow better and harvest more."
Uncaria also wanted to ask why loosening the soil could make the planted things grow better, but Chi Shao, who was beside him, glared at him and said, "If there are so many problems, the leader can do whatever he wants."
"Oh…"
Uncle Teng suddenly shut up, Chishao is too strong, and the three teenagers are a little afraid of Chishao.
Shi Loach and Nan Xing also shrank their necks and honestly followed to open up the wasteland.
The soil in the wasteland is very tight, and there are many grass roots, tree roots, and stones. The bones in their hands are not sharp enough. It is very hard to do this kind of work.
Fortunately, the tribal people are relatively strong originally, and these five people have just become one-colored warriors.
After half a day, with the efforts of five people, this wasteland of about 100 square meters was finally opened up.
The grass roots, tree roots, and stones in the wasteland were all cleaned up and piled on the open space beside them.
Looking at the newly opened farmland, Jiang Xuan only felt that some instincts hidden deep in his mind were awakened.
He said excitedly: "This is the first piece of farmland of our Vine tribe, and there will be a second piece, a third piece, and even countless pieces in the future!"
Chishao and the three juveniles were not so excited, because in their impression, the harvest of farming is too little, and it is better to hunt and gather.
Jiang Xuan didn't care either. When the land was planted with crops and had a bumper harvest, they would know the benefits of farming.
