Chapter 254 Arrangement
Chapter 254 Arrangement
The bear cub stared at the terrifying two-legged beasts with its round eyes, whimpering and sobbing.
It looked extremely thin, just skin and bones.
Yes, the female bear had been dead for more than five days, so it was not easy for it to still be alive.
Gu took the bear cub out of Ping'an's mouth and brought it in front of Lei.
This was too close to the grill. The bear cub stared at the food, sniffing it with his little nose and making a "wuwu" sound.
Shan had just returned and said to Lei, "Chief, we've checked and there are indeed no male cave bears. There's only a female cave bear and this newborn cub."
Yong suddenly had an idea and said with a smile, "Chief, since it's the only one we have, why don't we keep it? I think Ping An and Xi Le really like it!"
Guo also agreed, "We can raise two, and we can raise three. When they grow up, this cave bear will also be a help to our Tianlang."
Shan also spoke up: "Why not let it become the leader's exclusive mount. You are the head of the clan and also represent our Tianlang. Riding it out will certainly be powerful!"
Lei is willing to keep it.
When Sang first wanted to raise Ping An and Xi Le, he was worried about what would happen if they were not well-trained and hurt the tribe members.
But later I realized that all things have spirits.
But Shan and the others suggested that Lei did not agree. Even as the head of the clan, he could not be special. How could he make the cave bear his exclusive mount?
"You can raise it, but it belongs to our Tianlang, not mine."
Lei reached out and took it in his arms, picked up a piece of fish and fed it to its mouth.
The smell of meat instantly made it instinctively lean forward, wanting to get closer to the food. However, the uneasy environment made it shrink back immediately.
Lei brought the chopsticks closer, and the bear cub began to eat with a smacking sound, enjoying the food with great relish. In a short while, he had eaten a piece of meat cleanly. He also drank up the fish soup in the bowl.
"Since you're so thin, I'll just call you Zhuangzhuang from now on. Grow up strong and big, and bring honor to us Tianlang."
……
Two days later.
Sirius tribe.
All 57 houses have been completed.
But I see that my tribesmen will be back in three days.
The time left for the earth house to dry out on its own was insufficient, so physical measures had to be taken to deal with it.
The earthen kang in every house is heated red, and it is best to sprinkle water on it so that hot steam will rise immediately.
Then all the stoves in the tribe were concentrated in the mud house.
They burned whatever they had, dead leaves and branches, tree stumps, unused animal skins and bones, etc.
Sprinkle bamboo charcoal powder in large handfuls.
Keep doors and windows closed except when adding fuel to the fire.
I don’t believe that burning it for three days and three nights won’t dry it out!
……
Three days later, in the evening.
There are countless hot pots placed in the square of the Tianlang tribe, and several tribesmen are sitting around a pot.
On the table next to the pot were tripe, duck feet, duck intestines, black fungus, mushrooms, lobster, fish skin, meat rolls and other foods.
In addition, Sang Tian took out half of the fruit wine he brewed for the tribe members to drink tonight.
The Giant Bone Tribe members were dazzled and overwhelmed by what they saw.
I knew Tianlang ate well, but I didn't expect them to eat so well...
……
Arriving at Tianlang, I was struck by the vibrant colors of the scenery, dotted along every path. It was both fascinating and beautiful, like vibrant spring flowers.
The first thing Lan did was to take them into her own house.
The moment I opened the door, I was greeted by a spacious and bright room filled with warm air.
There were many pieces of furniture in the house, and Lan explained their uses one by one.
Finally, they put the things they brought neatly into the cabinet and spread the animal skins on the still warm kang.
Finally, at the square, each tribesman laboriously carried the items over to them.
When I opened it, it was full of food.
There were piles of fish, cured and salted fish, and sections of something Lan called sausage and kimchi. Finally, there were also a lot of cabbage, pumpkin, yams, and other foods. Even the seasoning powder they had been craving was delivered.
These things... I'm afraid I can't finish them in a month...
The overwhelming happiness suddenly arrived...
……
Then they heated up the kang and set up the stove.
The sky also darkened.
Yi and Rong came to call them to eat.
I didn't expect to see such a grand scene.
Ru said, this is called hot pot.
A thick heat and a spicy aroma filled the air above Sirius Square. Only then did they finally understand what those colorful things standing on the roadside during the day were.
At night, it emits a brilliantly colored light, illuminating all the roads in Tianlang, large and small. It's as bright as the Milky Way at night, but even more fantastical.
Even though there was no one walking around in the square, it looked very lively.
They sat around the clay pot, and following Tianlang's example, they poured meat and vegetables into the pot, cooked them for a while, and then picked them up to eat.
It's spicy, numb and satisfying.
In addition, there was a jar of drink on each table. They said it was called fruit wine, brewed from mulberry fruits in the tribe.
They tasted it and found it sweet, yet very unique. They wanted to drink more, but were stopped by the Tianlang tribe, who said that drinking too much would make them drunk.
They didn't know what being drunk meant or looked like, but after a while, they felt their bodies getting hot and their heads getting a little dizzy.
So, this is what it means to be drunk.
As a result, Han said with a smile.
According to Sang, this is just being tipsy! It's far from being drunk.
Zhuangzhuang, who had been chubby and full of food from Lei, chased Ping'an and Xile around the table, and the children also followed the three beasts, chasing and playing.
How can the atmosphere be so relaxed and harmonious?
……
After dinner, Tianlang’s witch sat under the bamboo shed and painted them.
Then Lei stood in the center and spoke.
"You all now bear the Black Wolf totem of the Tianlang Tribe, officially becoming members of the Tianlang tribe. From now on, you will shoulder the responsibilities of the Giant Bone Hunting and Gathering Teams. Of course, you will not be left out of the rights that Tianlang members enjoy.
Now, I want you to swear before the Heavenly Wolf's Black Wolf Totem that as long as you remain a member of the Heavenly Wolf Clan, you will never betray the Heavenly Wolf and will not do anything that would harm the safety or interests of the Heavenly Wolf Clan. Unite with the Heavenly Wolf Clan and live in harmony with them!"
The loud voice echoed in the square.
Then, there was another sound of oaths sworn by the members of the Giant Bone Tribe.
The moment the sound fell.
A strong wind blew up in the square, sweeping up all the fallen leaves around and swirling them in the air. It took a long time for it to stop.
Today, there are more than 460 people in the tribe. Although it is not yet 500, it is not far from it.
The Tianlang tribe was the largest in the land they had ever visited, and was about to break the 500-member mark.
Five hundred people may not be a big deal in modern times, but in this ancient wilderness, it means they can crush other tribes.
At this moment, the original residents of Tianlang finally realized what Sang had said before - that he wanted to make Tianlang a city of 500, 1000, or even people...
After more than half a year, these were proven to be true. As long as we work hard, they will become reality.
……
Sang Tian was accustomed to the ancient and barbaric laws of heaven and earth, and he found them to be quite something.
Afterwards, everyone continued to sit down and eat and drink.
Sang Tian watched with his own eyes as Yin quietly blew a melody with his fingers.
He smiled knowingly, and realized that the ones that were being retreated were the pink poisonous spiders.
……
It rained a little at night.
But the next day was a sunny day.
There were no collective demands in the tribe during these ten days.
Having just finished winter, the tribe was running low on firewood. Charcoal and pottery were consumables and needed to be burned. Furthermore, with a tribe of over 200 people, horses and beasts were insufficient. Some of the tribe members had to go to the grasslands to capture more horses and horse-like beasts. Others also had to teach the Giant Bone Tribe how to train and ride horses.
The females, unable to help, followed Sang to gather food.
It had rained the previous night, and many mushrooms had sprouted in the forest. The tribesmen taught the female giant bones to identify non-toxic mushrooms while they skillfully picked them.
Then we arrived at the bamboo forest, and everyone started picking bamboo shoots one basket after another.
Sang Tian was circling around all the way.
Now all kinds of plants have grown, and the buds on the trees are gradually turning green. From a distance, the entire ancient forest has turned green.
When she came here last year, it was already autumn and she had hardly eaten any vegetables, which made her very greedy.
When spring came, all kinds of wild vegetables grew out, which made Sang Tian very happy.
Look, on the low hill behind the bamboo forest, there's a dense mass of chives. They're so juicy, they'd be delicious with scrambled eggs, bacon, or anything else. Sang Tian immediately started cutting them with a bone knife, and the other females came to help.
Later, I discovered a large patch of bracken on a low hill. Bracken does tend to grow alongside chives. And they sprout very early, almost before the other grasses are even barren.
Sang Tian naturally accepted it happily.
This is not enough, guess what else Sang Tian discovered?
It's a small elm forest!
But it has just sprouted and it is not time to pick it yet.
In modern times, elm seeds may cost around four yuan per jin in areas with abundant production, but if grown in the wrong places, they can cost more than ten or twenty yuan per jin, which is quite expensive for a vegetable.
What's more, wild elm seeds are almost rare in modern times.
How delicious it would be if the elm seeds from such a small forest far away were wrapped into elm purses or made into elm seed steamed buns!
Just thinking about it makes Sang Tian drool.
But soon, a cold shower came over me. Without wheat and flour, where would the steamed buns and wowotou come from?
Alas, when can I find the carbohydrates that Sang Tian has been longing for?
……
Sang Tian marked a spot and would come back to pick the elm seeds when they had grown for a while.
However, Sang Tian also discovered Chinese toon.
The purple-red toon stands at the top of the toon tree branches.
Jie quickly climbed up the toon tree to pick toon buds.
Sang Tian smiled happily as he watched!
Looks like I can have a good dinner tonight!
In addition, many vegetables such as shepherd's purse, spinach, and alfalfa were also found.
They are all newly grown in spring, and they are so juicy!
The quantity was so huge that the other females’ backpacks were already filled to the brim!
They were excited and shocked.
How did Sang know about so many edible foods? They thought these were weeds and had been stepping on them for half their lives, never realizing they were edible.
If I had known earlier, wouldn't life have been so hard?
However, they don't delve into this.
The more foods Sang knows, the better their lives will be!
This is enough!
