The tribe already had some materials for building houses, so some people only needed to go out and cut down trees, while others just started building.
Moreover, the newly cut wood must be dried in the shade before building a house. For now, it is better to use the existing materials in the tribe to build a few larger rooms first, so that Shuiyun and the others can squeeze in them first.
After drifting on the boat for so many days, being able to live in a house should be very satisfying for them. Moreover, the boat they lived in was not a good one. The canoe was not comfortable to sit on, let alone lying down. They could hold on. So many days also shows that they are tough enough.
More than a hundred adults were busy working in the tribe, which was even more spectacular than when they captured prisoners before.
This time it was not just Shuiyun and the others who joined the tribe, Song Xuan also asked Gong Yi and six others to participate. Originally, they just lacked a ritual, but this time they did it together. As for the other captives, they could only They have to wait a little longer. After all, they haven't seen much contribution to the tribe yet. If they want to join, they can only use their time to gain qualifications.
However, Teng She's treatment of these prisoners is much better now than before. When they first arrived, these prisoners were locked in the yard except for working. Although they still live in a semi-crypt-style house in the yard, But it's not too strictly guarded.
As long as it doesn't involve important places in the tribe, they can still go out for a walk. Of course, the area is still limited to the Soaring Snake tribe and they can't go too far.
Most of them have already formed new families. The Black Feather tribe has replaced most of the men, which has led to a balance between men and women among the remaining captives. Moreover, as long as there is no sufficient reason, Song Xuan's marriage grant , the prisoners are not qualified to refuse.
However, it is still up to Song Xuan to decide whether the reasons they mentioned are valid. Although the Wuyu tribe left and changed, many people with families, but many of the women who stayed behind have already made their dreams come true. As for the family, there are even a few children who are still in the Karasuba tribe.
When these people granted marriage, Song Xuan would still ask for their opinions. If he really disagreed, Song Xuan would not force it. However, this era was still more open than Song Xuan imagined. Although most women still had some concerns She still has children, but she has not refused to start a family again.
Of course, these are also the spouses of many of them, who have been killed in previous battles, and Song Xuan also learned that the last time the more than 100 people from the Wuyu tribe came to attack Teng She, although they were huge, they were really The number of people belonging to the Karasuba tribe is only half.
Except for those who died in battle, most of them were replaced by Wuluo last time. Naturally, the sense of belonging among the remaining people is not that strong. After all, this is still an era where men are strong and women are weak, and the key is Teng She. Everyone's treatment is no worse than when they were in the Karasuba Tribe, especially after seeing that Yugi and the others are particularly valued.
Gongyi and the others can be considered as Tengshe's pilots, and the effect is quite good. Not only did they bring very high-quality bows and arrows to the Tengshe tribe, but they also promoted the enthusiasm of the remaining captives to work.
More than 40 people worked together. In less than half a day, everyone built the main frame of the house. All that was left to do was to spread thatch on the roof and the house, and then plaster the whole thing with grass mud.
However, the amount of thatch saved in the tribe is not much, not even enough to cover half of the roof, let alone these three big houses. It is too late to cut some more from outside now. After all, they have to wait for them to be completely dry. This is still It takes a lot of time.
Due to urgency, Song Xuan could only ask everyone to apply a layer of mud first. After all, the wood was already arranged very tightly. Although there were gaps in the middle, they were not big. He used the existing thatch to fill the gaps and level them. For a moment, just put grass paste on it. As long as it doesn't rain heavily, you can still live in it.
If you have enough thatch in the tribe at the back, you can still upgrade it slowly.
The house was originally built to be larger than ordinary houses, basically more than twice the size of the small house that Song Xuan and the others lived in, so the application of grass mud became the slowest part of the entire house building work.
But at least it won't rain now. As long as the ground is dried, we can sleep tonight. As soon as we selected the address, everyone lit the fire in the house.
There will definitely be no problem if you live temporarily. Living in a room like this is not much worse than a cave. At least it looks much better in appearance.
The weather is relatively hot now, so even if there is some draft from all sides, it's not a big deal.
"Angel, we are back!"
As soon as Song Xuan drove Uncle Lu and his family into the deer pen, he heard Shipi starting to call him in the distance.
Since everyone was busy building houses today, Uncle Lu was temporarily out of custody. Although there was usually no one to take care of him, he wandered east and west, which shocked the people of the Blackwater Tribe. , but it also really affected everyone’s progress.
Although they have all seen the cows brought back by Song Xuan before, those two cows are not as spiritual as Uncle Lu. The people of the Tengshe tribe seem to show off intentionally. You hold a handful of grass and shout, I will hold it. A handful of grass is summoned again.
There were even people from the Blackwater Tribe who wanted to imitate him. Uncle Lu snorted disdainfully, twisted his butt and left, showing his arrogant character at a glance.
In addition to Uncle Deer, Wang Cai who had been following Song Xuan also surprised them. Although Uncle Deer was obedient, he was a grass-eater after all. They also knew that this kind of animal was relatively docile, so for Teng Snake Being able to raise them is not too surprising.
But Wangcai's wolf is different. Wolves are very ferocious prey. Every time they go out to hunt, they either fight to the death or they just run away. There is very little chance of them coming back alive. Even if caught, he would not survive.
What surprised the people of the Blackwater tribe the most was that the wolf Wangcai actually had a lot of fun with a few deer that were several times bigger than him. For a while, not many people in the Blackwater tribe began to wonder if this world was going to happen. There have been too many changes, and meat-eating and grass-eating people will be able to play together at any time.
Although the number of animals currently raised by Soaring Snake is not large, except for rabbits, they are all relatively strong in size, especially the two large cows. Even though they have seen them on the boat before, the close contact now makes them feel... It gave them a little shock.
My own tribe has not even had enough food to eat these days, but Teng She can still afford to raise so many prey. This psychological gap is really big, but then I think about it, and now I am also a member of Teng She, and my mood suddenly changes. It has become more complicated.
Shipi's voice sounded far away, so Song Xuan was not in a hurry to go out. After a while, he slowly walked to the door.
At first glance, Shi Shui and the others were exaggerating. Shi Shui also understood what Song Xuan meant, so he picked up all the fish he caught with tree branches.
Today's harvest is also very impressive, at least more than half of what it has been in recent times. It is basically the kind of fishing that the tribe used to catch at the beginning. The harvest is very large. It seems that they also picked a piece today and have not caught any at all. The place.
The two eldest children of the Blackwater Tribe were at the head. They were seen carrying a stick one after the other. In the middle of the stick was a huge grass carp. This fish alone weighed at least more than 40 kilograms. Such a big fish Fish are usually rare, and it takes ten and a half days to catch one.
The children in the back either hugged them directly, or they also imitated the people who jumped into the snake and took sticks, one after another, and picked up a load on their shoulders.
The small fish was not wasted. Shi Shui asked the children to take grass, rub it up and thread it into a string. Although it was not as shocking as the big fish in front of them, at least it looked pretty good.
Soon a group of children walked back to the tribe. Song Xuan glanced at Shi Shui appreciatively. Unexpectedly, he was also a talented person who knew how to do things.
The leading child was also very excited and shouted as soon as he walked into the tribe:
"Chief, look!"
Looking at their children carrying the big fish, everyone in the Blackwater tribe was shocked. After all, only Shi Shui and the two captives followed out. The main force was these children who were not yet adults, among whom the oldest It will take a year or two to reach the current standard of adulthood.
You must know that it is difficult for Shuiyun and the others to catch such a big fish. The largest fish they usually catch is only about ten kilograms. This is when they are lucky, and they usually weigh three to four kilograms. There are more, of course the same is true for the Tengshe Tribe, but fortunately the fishing nets cover a wider area, making it easier to catch bigger fish.
Although the totem of the Blackwater Tribe is fish, such a big fish is enough to remember them for a lifetime. Many people in the tribe may not be able to eat such a big fish in their lifetime.
It's easy to see. There are so many big fish in such a river. They are all fat and strong. It's easy to meet them when they surface from time to time. But seeing them and getting them back are two different things. These big fish are bigger than ordinary fish. It is very clever, otherwise it would not be able to grow so big, and it would have disappeared long ago before you could get close.
Therefore, the Blackwater Tribe can only try their luck. Throwing things from a distance is like throwing a javelin. However, fish in the water are much more difficult to deal with than prey on land, unless they float on the water. As long as it is slightly shallower, it will be difficult to cause any damage, and even if it is thrown, there is a high probability that it will not be able to penetrate the layer of huge and thick fish scales.
It was not just the big fish that shocked them. The two people in front of them turned around, and the people behind them also came in one after another. Some were carrying people on their bodies, holding others in their arms, and some were even directly attacking the big and small fish. The fish on the waist, both in terms of quantity and quality, are not comparable to what the Blackwater Tribe usually catches.
