The Caveman Made Me Awesome

Chapter 424 Big Winter Little Winter

Star Lake shore.

A group of bright star algae gathered together, scrambling like small fish to devour the carrion fragments scattered by the pheasants.

"Crack!"

After eating, they scattered in a rush, made a small splash, and swam lively to the center of the lake.

At this time, the center of the lake was calm and there was no treant lying on the water, and the entire star lake became a paradise for the star algae.

It turns out that all the treants are now standing on flat ground, their roots are deeply rooted into the soil, endless tree threads spread out from the brown spots on their bodies, and they are waving the tree threads to carry rocks.

Different from a day ago, the open space is now full of large and small irregular rocks, which is extremely crowded like a quarry, and there is almost no place to step down.

Most of the rocks looked as if they had just been dug out of the ground, and were pitted, with a lot of dirt embedded in the crevices.

Looking at the blue-gray color and beautiful texture, it is obviously the bluestone found by the chief of the stone tribe that is suitable for building stone houses.

"jingling!"

"Ding ding ding ding!"

The surviving more than 1,000 carved tribesmen, both male and female, are sitting among these rock piles, holding chisels and carving knives and other tools, grinding the rocks profusely.

Grinding is the basic skill of carving, so every carving tribe is also good at grinding.

With the flying lime and the splashing gravel, the uneven rocks of different sizes quickly turned into standard cuboid stone bricks of 480 mm. 230 mm. 106 mm.

In fact, besides everyone in the carved tribe is a master sculptor, everyone is also a patient with severe obsessive-compulsive disorder, so these rock bricks seem to be copied and pasted from each other, and each piece is extremely standard and looks perfect.

At this moment, Chen was also grinding the rock.

His eyes were focused, and his hands were flying around the stones quickly. As a warrior, his grinding speed was much faster than that of ordinary carved tribesmen. At this time, a large pile of polished rock bricks had piled up on his right hand.

Meanwhile, there is less and less unpolished rock around.

"Clang!"

Another polished rock block is thrown into the stone pile on the right.

Chen wiped the sweat from his forehead, shook his red hands, and suddenly shouted to Kong: "Take this pile too! I'm going to change places!"

As soon as the words fell, hundreds of tree threads whizzed through the intertwined crowd, accurately wrapped up bluestone bricks, and then stacked them next to the cave, on a high brick mountain like a pyramid.

Chen waved to the treant behind him, and moved to a place with more rough stones to continue working.

Two middle-aged craftsmen of the Nest tribe stood not far away, looking at Chen and other Ke tribesmen who were working hard in shame and admiration, and sighed:

"Their speed is also too fast. If I polish one rock, they may be able to polish ten... no, it's twenty!"

"Me too, and the polished rock is definitely not that smooth!"

At this moment, a potter and implementer came up, put the shoulders of the two familiarly, and led them out: "Let's go, don't be lazy and move the stones together!"

The two looked at each other and smiled wryly, not daring to delay any longer, they followed him forward with big strides, and then merged into the tide-like crowd.

These people are all going to the distant hills and mountains.

They are going to dig the blue-gray rock mine that is suitable for building stone houses, extract all the stone materials, and then transport them back to the territory continuously.

Moa, Roaring Beast, White Tortoise, Brutal Bull, Ruffled Eight-legged Beetle... countless war beasts also joined this huge transport team, and war beasts that could not be transported, such as falcon birds and stinging insects, stood around the team and took charge of protect them.

on the top of the hill.

The tribal chiefs and witches crowded together in a circle.

"Now that everyone is here, let me tell you the story again, because most tribes don't know the news yet."

Ye Xi stood at the head, with serious eyes and a solemn expression: "We found out that the Zhong tribe people originally lived dozens of miles away. According to what they said,

There are four seasons here, and now we are in the rainy autumn, you can also think of it as the rainy season. "

"With autumn rain after autumn, the temperature will continue to drop, which means that it will become colder and colder here. After the rain stops completely, we will soon usher in winter, which is the last of the four seasons."

"You can imagine the cold snap in the middle of the rainy season, and the winter is about as cold as that."

Someone immediately frowned.

But everyone didn't speak and didn't interrupt Ye Xi, they just listened quietly to his continuation.

Ye Xi was silent for a moment, then continued: "The winter here is divided into a big winter and a small winter."

"Small winter lasts no more than two and a half months, while the great winter lasts for four months. The third month is the coldest, when the dripping water turns into ice, and those who don't have enough fur and firewood will die from the cold."

"According to the people of this tribe, when the winter comes, at least a hundred people in their tribe freeze to death in the terrible cold, turning into a hard lump of ice, and they can't bleed with a knife. In this case, It is absolutely impossible to go hunting again.”

Many people gasped.

Four months of cold weather! Although they haven't experienced winter, they know how cold it is when the cold wave comes. If they can't go out to hunt for such a long time... how many people will starve to death?

Ye Xi stared at everyone with piercing eyes, and his voice was powerful and clear.

"The big winter and the small winter come irregularly, sometimes once every two years, sometimes once every ten years, and sometimes it's a big winter for several years in a row. The tribesmen can only store food by intuition, but we are different, we have divination witches!"

"What I can tell you is that several divination witches have already obtained the results."

Many people immediately held their breath.

Ye Xi looked at them and said word by word: "What we are about to welcome is a great winter!"

There was silence.

After a while, the bull chief gritted his teeth and asked Ye Xi: "Master Xiwu, how long is it until the winter arrives?"

Ye Xi said straightforwardly: "One month."

The Bull Chief's face was pale: "Just... only one month?"

Ye Xi smiled slightly: "It should be said that we still have a full month of preparation time! We are very lucky to be able to find this place one month before the arrival of winter. If we spend the winter on the road, think about how many people we will die. ?”

The bull chief's burly body trembled suddenly.

If the winter is really as cold as when the cold wave comes, and the time is still so long, then most of the team will probably freeze to death. Thinking about it this way, I really want to thank the group of one-horned scale horses. Without them, everyone would still be trekking in the grassland!

Ye Xi comforted everyone in a warm voice: "Although winter is coming, we don't need to be afraid. As long as we build stone houses, kangs, and store enough food and firewood before winter comes, we will have an extremely comfortable winter. "

"We can sit around on the warm kang, drink the hot broth, and then sleep lazily. Occasionally, we will rush out the door in the cold, and everyone will get together to have fun."

"The premise of all this is that in one month, we have to finish everything."
