Chapter 234: Farming in Primitive Society (18)
However, so much meat hanging in the cave would eventually be discovered, and Ning Shu wanted to store more before winter came.
"We have to move to another place. I found a big cave when I was hunting. Let's put the meat in the cave." Ning Shu said.
Zhi exclaimed, "Take the meat outside the tribe?"
"We will be discovered sooner or later. Are you willing to hand over so much meat to the tribe?" Ning Shu looked at Zhi and asked.
Zhi felt distressed and his face twisted. He immediately said, "Okay."
Ning Shu and Zhi started to work, putting the salted meat that had been dried hard into a basket and preparing to send it to the big cave at night.
But Zhi had never left the tribe at night. There were always rustling sounds in the woods, and the shrill and sharp sounds of some strange birds, which made people's hair stand on end.
Zhi followed Ning Shu, his body trembling.
"It's okay, I'm here." Ning Shu's voice was very calm, which made Zhi feel a little relieved.
Seeing that she was walking slowly, Ning Shu moved some of the pickled meat from her basket to his own basket.
The big cave was discovered by Ning Shu when he was chasing a wild boar. This cave is very large, and there is a water source inside the cave. It will be a very good shelter.
Zhi put down the basket, looked around, and felt that the cave was really big.
Ning Shu first used a sharp stick to loosen the soil, and then used a sharp stone to dig the soil, preparing to dig a big hole.
"Fuck, what are you doing?" Zhi asked with some confusion.
While Ning Shu was busy, he said, "Are we just going to put the meat here? There are so many beasts in the woods, they will drag the meat away. Cover it with big leaves and bury it in the ground."
"Oh." Zhi quickly took the stone and followed to dig the hole.
Ning Shu smacked his lips. There were barbs all over his fingers. It would be great if female orcs could also transform, so that they could dig the soil with their claws.
The two worked for a long time and finally dug a pit half a person high. Ning Shu covered the bottom of the pit with wide leaves and then put the pickled meat on the leaves.
"Zhi, I'll go back and bring all the pickled meat over. You just stay here." Ning Shu said to Zhi.
Zhi's voice was a little trembling, "Fuck, I'm scared."
"Don't be afraid, I'll be back soon." Ning Shu picked up the pointed wooden stick on the ground and stuffed it into Zhi's hand, "Don't be afraid, be strong, I'll be back soon."
Ning Shu took the two baskets and ran out of the cave quickly, and luckily shuttled through the forest with the moonlight.
Back to the cave, put the pickled meat in the basket, and then quickly went to the cave.
Zhi in the cave held the wooden stick tightly, and was relieved to see Ning Shu coming, and helped put the pickled meat in the pit.
After going back and forth several times, Ning Shu finally moved the pickled meat in the cave to the cave, and the rest were some freshly pickled ones.
The pickled meat was covered with large leaves, and then buried with soil. Ning Shu and Zhi picked at it and covered it tightly.
After doing this, Ning Shu finally breathed a sigh of relief, as he had the first batch of supplies.
He returned to the tribe with Zhi.
The days passed at a moderate pace. Ning Shu was very busy every day, either practicing martial arts or going hunting.
When the wheat planted by Qianjia matured, Qianjia invited everyone in the tribe to eat noodles. Although no one knew how she ground the flour, Qianjia could do anything.
Everyone was invited, and Qianjia seemed to have forgotten Ning Shu, and no one else mentioned it. After all, on such a festive day, it would be bad if Cao was ignorant and made a fuss. Zhi was also invited. Seeing that Ning Shu was not going, Zhi also did not go. Ning Shu saw that she was obviously very greedy, but she stayed by her side, and could not help but smile. She
pushed her away and asked her to attend the banquet.
What's wrong with missing a meal of noodles?
Sister is also a modern person.
Qianjia not only made noodles, but also steamed buns. Although the dough was a bit hard, it was enough to amaze these primitive people.
After a meal, the chieftain announced that wheat would be planted, and then tigers were digging the ground in every place in the tribe. Many female orcs began to sow seeds under Qianjia's guidance.
The whole tribe was in full swing, but it had little to do with Ning Shu.
It was probably because of the rumors in the tribe. People in the tribe said that Kai wanted to abandon Cao and did not want to be a partner with Cao.
Kai came to Ning Shu and said that he would help Ning Shu to reclaim land so that she could grow some food.
Ning Shu refused expressionlessly.
Kai frowned, looking uneasy, and said: "Growing some wheat can also bring extra harvests. Do you want to wait for such a small amount of prey every day? How are we going to survive the winter?"
"What does it have to do with you how I survive?" Ning Shu didn't want to talk to Kai.
Kai was kind-hearted, but was very unhappy with Ning Shu's attitude, especially when he saw how lazy she was. Compared with Qianjia, Kai became more dissatisfied with this future partner and felt very irritated.
The thought of becoming a partner with Cao made Kai feel cold in his heart.
Zhi also got some seeds and asked Ning Shu if she wanted to plant them. Ning Shu shook her head and let her do it herself.
Ning Shu looked up and saw that there were already five moons in the sky, and winter was not far away.
So she sped up the hunting speed,
and she would go to the salt mine to steal salt in a few days. Ning Shu's strength was getting stronger and stronger, but he didn't dare to relax at all. One more point of strength could save one more abandoned person.
Qianjia also made a pottery jar, which is to knead mud into the shape of a jar and burn it at high temperature. Qianjia failed several times and finally succeeded once, and then the success rate became higher and higher.
Ning Shu twitched her lips. Why is it so simple in her hands?
Can it be so simple to make a pottery jar?
Qianjia's pottery jar caused a huge response in the tribe. It is really convenient to have a pottery jar. It can be used as a bowl or a container for water. However, this technology is exclusive.
Qianjia told everyone her method, but when the female orcs did it, they were not as successful as Qianjia. Occasionally, two succeeded.
Zhi also got a pottery jar. When Zhi went to ask Qianjia for salt, Qianjia generously gave her a pottery jar filled with salt.
Although there is enough salt now, Ning Shu still asked Zhi to ask Qianjia for salt.
Zhi liked this pottery jar very much and showed it to Ningshu. Ningshu didn't take it seriously. He had seen porcelain that was countless times more exquisite than this one. This thing really had no appeal.
"Fuck, Jia Ke knows so much. She first discovered the salt mine and then planted wheat. She knows so much. She is really a goddess sent by God." Zhi praised Qian Jia. After all, these things were real.
The whole tribe has undergone earth-shaking changes, changing with each passing day.
Ning Shu nodded, "The goddess is naturally different from us."
Standing on the shoulders of giants, you can see farther. Qian Jia knows all these things that have been accumulated by generations of predecessors.
