When many tribesmen see other people marrying each other and living a happy life, pairs of men and women naturally develop a good impression and come together. This kind of process does not require human guidance. Human instinct will naturally lead them to such a situation.
"Reproduction is the basis for the growth of the human race. If nothing else, our human race can reproduce."
Zhong Yan looked at the tribe that had become a tribal place and nodded with satisfaction.
The human race created are all in their prime of life, when their fertility is the most powerful and vigorous. During this period, once they are combined together, it will be like thunder and fire, and there will be results.
He was already looking forward to the fact that a year later, a large number of human babies would appear here crying loudly. This is the hope and future of the human race. As the race becomes stronger, that means the lords are becoming stronger and the territory is becoming stronger. No matter how you look at it, it is worth looking forward to.
In fact, many women had proposed to him before, only to be rejected by him.
The purpose of building houses is to prepare for the expansion of the tribe. Otherwise, if everyone lives in caves and all live together, how can they reproduce offspring? If they mess around, it will obviously not work.
Although this is a primitive era and only stone tools can be used, Zhong Yan is not a primitive man and has no way to abandon his own morals and ethics. If you really want to be like the primitive people, who vent their desires when they have it, have no ethics, and give birth to children who don't even know who their father is, then it will be a big joke in the world. Perhaps, in the real primitive era, this approach would allow those descendants to grow up smoothly and be supported centrally.
But Zhong Yan would not make that choice.
After all, we are not real primitive people, so we still need to establish correct moral values and ethics as soon as possible. Therefore, from the beginning to the end, Zhong Yan did not let it go. In the current situation where the number of men and women is not much different, a man and a woman can get married and become a family, and the children they give birth to can inherit their parents' surnames. This is a heritage.
Now, Zhong Yan hopes that these people will get pregnant as soon as possible and have children.
Three thousand people were still too few, and far from enough according to his idea. To expand the group, it still involved a matter of time. If you don't have enough time, you can't do it at all. Giving birth to children and growing the group is not like hens laying eggs and rabbits laying cubs. This is not a game, this is a real person who can grow up in three to five days.
"I don't know how other pioneering lords solved it."
A thought flashed through Zhong Yan's mind.
Calculating this, becoming a lord is not a good thing. For ordinary people, if they want to reproduce the race, even if they have one child a year, if they want to grow up, they will definitely not be able to grow up in less than thirty years, although they usually grow up to fifteen or sixteen years old. It can be regarded as an adult. One batch will count you as more than a thousand. One year apart, you can have another batch of more than a thousand. Even if it takes more than ten years, they will be born every year. Within fifteen or six years, the main force will be able to reproduce. The people are just the initial two or three thousand people in front of us.
Therefore, no matter what happens, at least within fifteen or six years, the population of the entire clan will never exceed 30,000.
In more than ten years, the population has exceeded 30,000, which seems to be a lot. But the problem is that compared to the entire ethnic group, this is still too thin. Only the next twenty or thirty years will be the population explosion period. At that time, as long as the population was relaxed, the population would double every year.
Zhong Yan estimated that it would take fifty years to completely increase the population to a considerable number.
After all, the current population base is so small. It is not easy to achieve a population explosion at once. Fifty years is already a conservative number, but fifty years of growth time is not easy to obtain.
There are too many surprises in the process of growing up.
Zhong Yan had to consider it.
.....................
Soon, three months later.
A complete tribe has been established accordingly. Houses stand up one after another. Although they are still very simple, everyone has already moved in. The inside is divided into several areas, such as the residential area and the workshop area, which is specially used for making tools and polishing stone tools. , there is a large canteen established. Now we still eat from the big pot, there is no separation, only some people who are talented in cooking are in charge of the cooking.
Most of the daily food is fruits collected from the nearby forests, as well as some edible wild vegetables, fish and shrimps in the river, and meat obtained from hunting in the mountains.
This relies on mountains to eat mountains and water to eat water. I am usually hardworking and have not been hungry in the past few months. The river is extremely rich in aquatic products, and it is not difficult to support life in a short period of time. Unfortunately, so far, no staple foods that can be grown, such as corn, sweet potatoes, rice, wheat, etc., have been found. This is also related to the fact that the previous focus was on building tribes and no in-depth exploration of the surrounding mountains and forests. .
"If you want to expand without worries and increase the population, finding suitable food seeds for planting is the most important thing. Farming is the way to go."
Zhong Yan mused to himself. During this period, he had been groping for cultivation. Ever since he was able to practice, he had become obsessed with it. He practiced diligently every day without slacking off. That door was eventually named the Eternal Gate.
The soul is immortal and lasts forever.
The most important thing is that this door of eternity can not only replace the method of visualization, it can be called a natural method of visualization, creating eternity. Now it seems that he is just born, but his Tao charm is completely natural. By visualizing it, you can continuously absorb the wisdom of heaven and earth and condense the power of your soul.
The most important thing is that inside the Eternal Gate, he also discovered a space. The space in the gate was filled with colorful mist. It was impossible to see whether it was big or small. There are not many colorful mists. Just know that it can be used as a storage space to store items. The most amazing thing is that he discovered that once, he put an ordinary stone in and forgot to take it out. When he remembered it, more than ten days had passed. When he took it out again, he found that the stone was no longer a stone, but had become a stone. It becomes a piece of iron ore with a metallic luster on its surface.
It was this sudden discovery that made Zhong Yan very interested and he kept trying various materials. It was discovered that the ordinary stones placed inside the Gate of Eternity would be nourished by the colorful mist unconsciously, and some would turn into iron ore, and some would turn into copper ore. There are also those that turn into jade, which is very strange and miraculous. Even this kind of transformation seems to have a limit. If it really changes from stone to ore, after becoming ore, if you continue to put it in, it will not evolve. It's like there is some kind of restriction.
It was unclear whether this restriction could be broken in the future, but now, based on his observations, it was clearly not possible.
It can store items and evolve various materials.
This special ability not only shocked people, but also made Zhong Yan ecstatic. This ability, if used well, can add a lot of knowledge to himself.
However, he did not dare to send stones in on a large scale. This kind of evolution is not without cost. What is consumed is the colorful mist contained in the Eternal Gate. These colorful mist are not endless. Once consumed, there will be nothing. The re-aggregation will only grow slowly as the Eternal Gate absorbs the wisdom of heaven and earth.
He felt that the Gate of Eternity was absorbing desires from the world, but this process was not fast. Even when actively visualizing and practicing, it was very rare to be able to absorb the power of desire from the outside world. Normally, it was allowed to run on its own. , the absorption rate is even slower.
After careful observation, I found that according to the current speed of the Eternal Gate, ten rays of colorful mist can be condensed in one day. This mist is very precious and is the fundamental source of the evolution of various materials.
And practicing every day can condense ten rays of spiritual power. According to the calculation that one year of Taoism requires 365 strands of spiritual power to be condensed into a drop of liquid spiritual power. This speed is already very fast. It takes more than a month to condense one drop and increase one year of Taoism.
By now, one can clearly see that there are five drops of liquid spiritual power in the Consciousness Sea Spirit Platform, which represents five years of Taoism.
Such a speed of cultivation would rank among geniuses anywhere. To put it bluntly, it would be an extraordinary talent.
It can be said that during this period of time, his own strength has undergone transformation, his combat power has doubled, his Taoism has increased, and his two innate magical powers have been improved to varying degrees, making them easier to use.
It can control the range of driving objects to a distance of 100 meters. Within this distance, it can be wielded like an arm.
Now he is using a short sword polished from a triceratops claw. When driven, it is extremely sharp and much more powerful than a stone sword.
Strength represents self-confidence.
In this world, as long as extraordinary power does not appear, Zhong Yan asked himself, it can still be dealt with. I am also full of expectations for the future.
Suppressing the thoughts in my heart, I could see that at this moment, at the foot of the mountain, all the tribesmen had already gathered in the square in front of the mountain. There was a high platform at the foot of the mountain. On the high platform, there are several complete animals. It can be seen that it will not take too long to die.
"Clan leader!"
"Clan leader!!"
Seeing Zhong Yan walking out of the cave, one of the tribesmen looked over with fiery eyes and shouted.
Zhong Yan was speechless and walked up to the high platform step by step.
Looking at the crowd below, everyone is now wearing clothes not made of leaves, but clothes made of animal skins. They all look rough and wild, exuding a primitive atmosphere.
"People, we have spent nearly half a year here since we were born. We started from scratch and built the tribal village in front of us step by step. We wore clothes made of animal skins, could barely fill our stomachs, learned to hunt, and learned how to hunt. Writing, and even forming families, many people are pregnant and about to give birth to the next generation. Today, we can be said to have broken away from the primitive and established a tribe."
