No matter how sad you feel, you still have to face the current situation.
This is how their ancestors migrated again and again and established their homes, which continues to this day.
Almost all the caves in the tribe were destroyed, and the top priority was to find a safe place to dig caves again.
But the great migration is more difficult, and you don’t know what dangers you will encounter along the way.
Many people died on each migration, and more children died along the way.
Lin Yan's face tightened and Mao Mu carried him around in the tribe.
After thinking for a long time, she gathered together the prominent people in the tribe.
Huang Ye is the longest-living member of the tribe. She speaks with great authority. She was the first to say, "Lin Yan, why did you come to us?"
Everyone else looked at Lin Yan. He was a small person, but he had countless fantastic ideas that changed the current situation of the Sun Tribe.
People love and respect Lin Yan. She has proven herself to people through practice.
Now we can bring people together.
According to past traditions, migration was inevitable when encountering such a situation.
But this time, they hoped that Lin Yan would have a better solution. Migration is too difficult and the losses will be even greater.
These days, everyone sees Lin Yan's performance. She is someone who is born to know and can lead them to live a good life.
Lin Yan looked around and asked, "I want to know what everyone thinks and what are you going to do next?"
"If there is no other way, we can only move and find a new place to start over." Seeing that everyone was silent, Alan could only stand up and said, "Lin Yan, is there anything you can do? If possible, no one wants to move. It's cold season. It’s coming, and we can’t survive it without food or caves.”
Seeing everyone staring at him eagerly, Lin Yan said: "There is no way, or it will require everyone to work hard for a while."
"What's the way? As long as it works, there's no need to worry about hard work." Heitu said immediately. He looked at Lin Yan eagerly, hoping that she could find a way without moving.
Migration would have to start over, which meant death and endless risks. After a few days of stability, they didn't want to live like that.
"Moving cannot fundamentally solve the problem. Even if you arrive in a new place, there will still be various disasters that cannot be avoided."
As soon as Lin Yan finished speaking, Kurotsuchi immediately agreed: "That's right, that's it. What can you do?"
Huang Ye scolded: "Don't speak in a hurry, listen to Lin Yan."
Heitu calmed down and quickly promised: "Okay, Lin Yan said, I promise not to interrupt."
The crowd fell silent and waited for Lin Yan's good idea.
Lin Yan stopped nagging and continued, "Since we can't avoid it and it's the same everywhere, why not build a strong home ourselves, protect it together, and resist the beasts together."
"How to build it?" Huang Ye hit the nail on the head. She has experienced too much. It's not that her ancestors never thought of building it by themselves, but they can't match the strength of the herd.
"Underground caves are not suitable for living. They are easily trampled by beasts, so we still have to build houses on the ground. Now that time is tight, we will build a few large houses first to survive the cold season. When the next hot season comes, Then build a new house for each family. The house I want to build is like this. The walls are made of bricks and stones, the roof is built with wood as beams, a layer of fence is laid, and then a layer of hay and soil is covered. Keep warm, put tiles on top..."
As Lin Yan spoke, she drew what she called the structure of the house on the stone slab.
"Everyone needs to participate. The main body should be built first, and the interior layout should be completed slowly after the outside is completed. The house must be built before the cold season."
"Is this house strong?" Alan asked hesitantly. Although it looks nice and is better than living in a cave, it won't work if it's not safe.
"The beasts are also afraid of the cold in the cold season and seldom come out to move around. The houses built have a certain defensive effect, but if you want to block the beasts, you have to find another way. Besides, the beasts will know to avoid a tree when they see it. He will hit it directly, but he won’t be stupid enough to hit the wall when he sees it.”
Heitu smiled and said: "Yes, the beasts are not stupid. It would be great if this house could be built. Lin Yan, what bricks and tiles are you talking about?"
Lin Yan explained while drawing: "Both bricks and tiles are made by firing. The bricks will be harder and about the same size, so they can be piled up much faster. The tiles are laid on the roof to allow water to flow down when it rains."
Everyone chatted and asked all their questions, and Lin Yan answered them one by one.
After more than an hour, everyone made the decision to do it.
This time the herd attacked thirty-five people in the tribe and injured over a hundred. No one wanted to see anyone else encounter something like this again.
We need to build a new home anyway, so we can build a house.
After making a decision, let people start cleaning up the broken home first.
Spend an afternoon tidying up your home and picking out everything you can use. Especially food is very important.
Others began to work.
Lin Yan, Huang Ye, Alan and Heitu began to make plans for building a house.
First, divide the young men in the tribe into groups of twenty, and select ten groups to dig the foundation, ten groups to chop wood, ten groups to burn bricks, and ten groups to burn tiles.
Among the remaining people, the elderly are responsible for cooking and preparing food, while the stronger ones take the children to mow the grass together.
Lin Yan is responsible for technical research in various areas, Huang Ye is responsible for assigning people to work, A Lan is responsible for logistics, and Heitu leads people to hunt food for everyone.
Suddenly, Lin Yan remembered Lao Lin. He had good fishing skills, and decided to let him lead some people to fish.
There are a lot of fish in the Sun River, so it’s good to catch more. There is a shortage of everything now, and everything that can satisfy our hunger is good.
That night, everyone in the tribe knew that they were going to build a new home, and their hearts were full of expectations.
Although I don't know what the new home will look like yet, I looked at Lin Yan's simple drawings and listened to her description. It should be good.
Starting tomorrow is another brand new day. If everyone works together, we will be able to build the house before the cold season.
Lin Yan's initial plan was to build a hundred courtyards. He didn't know when the cold season would come, so he built them in batches. The first batch was ten courtyards.
The houses are not designed to be large. There are only four rooms in a courtyard. Each room is eight meters long and about four meters wide, with an open space at the front and back.
The address was chosen in Pikatu Plain, not far from Lin Yan's home. The grass in that area had been cut, leaving an open space for easy use. It’s not too far from Sun River.
The reason why it was not built on the original site was because if the Sun River rose, this area would be flooded.
Pika was originally different. The entire terrain was elevated, and with some construction in the future, it would be able to avoid the disaster of flooding.
The place is big enough and enough trouble, so I plan it this way for now and make improvements later.
The next day, the sky was slightly bright, and those who couldn't sleep due to excitement got up and started moving according to the arrangement last night.
