Traveling through ancient times to farm and build infrastructure

Chapter 343 Chapter 343

Their tribe lived behind the mountain. When the warriors of the tribe came back from hunting, they smelled the smell of the forest and found someone here. They came to have a look.

Jiang Li stepped forward and talked with them for a long time before they realized that the four of them had no ill intentions towards them.

Knowing that they are people from the Yaoshan tribe, they came out to look for food seeds.

Yao Xiaoqing came forward and asked what seeds their tribe had. If there were seeds that the Yaoshan tribe did not have, she was willing to exchange them with them.

After gesticulating and talking for a long time, the leader understood what she meant.

Asking the two to go back and get some seeds, Yao Xiaoqing found that the crops planted by the tribe here are similar to theirs, they are all millet and beans...

She thought about grabbing a handful of pumpkin seeds from the bag and gave them to them, then gesticulated and told them how to plant them.

After talking for a long time, those people came to understand, the leader dubiously believed what Yao Xiaoqing said, and gave the seeds to the warriors around him at will.

Seeing that they didn't care about the pumpkin seeds, Heiba ​​gestured at them in dissatisfaction: "These seeds require three muttons to exchange, and Qingwu gives them to you for free. You should plant them well."

After finishing speaking, he went to the back basket to take out the pumpkin that was used as a sample, and showed them to have a look.

"Oh~oh!"

A dozen or so men exclaimed, stared dumbfoundedly at the pumpkin Heiba ​​was holding for a moment, and started discussing in a hurry.

The leading man looked at the pumpkin and pointed to the pumpkin seeds in his hand, and asked Yao Xiaoqing if such seeds grew from them?

Yao Xiaoqing nodded with a smile, and a group of people excitedly bowed down to salute them, and walked away with pumpkin seeds in their hands.

The four of them sat down and continued to eat. Just after they finished eating, they began to clean up. The man in the lead walked over with three men carrying the bag, handed the bag to Heiba, and pointed at his own mouth, which meant that the food inside was edible. Yes, the four left after making gestures.

When Heiba ​​opened the leather bag, he smelled a refreshing fruity scent. He saw that there was a bird's egg-sized red fruit in the bag, which made his mouth water.

He carried the bag back to the animal skin mat, "Qing Wu, leader, what do you look at? It smells so good!"

Yao Xiaoqing and Jiang Li took one and looked at it for a while, then they shook their heads together, "I haven't seen it before."

Heiba ​​looked at the two of them, "That person said this thing is for food!"

Jiang Li opened it and took a look. The flesh inside was pink and tender, unlike any fruit they had ever seen.

"Should be edible. They should have brought it to thank us for sending them the pumpkin."

As he spoke, he took it to the side of the ditch and washed it. After he put it in his mouth and ate it, he felt that it was fragrant and sweet, and it quenched his thirst very much.

Jiang Li washed a few more and handed them to Yao Xiaoqing, "It tastes good, you should try it too."

Yao Xiaoqing felt the same after eating.

The four lived at the foot of the mountain for two days, searched everywhere in the valley, and continued on their way after finding no trace of rice.

It was hot and humid in the forest in June. After walking for less than two hours, I felt sticky all over my body.

After walking in the woods for more than ten days, it rained twice, and met two tribes. After communication, there was still no trace of rice.

Yao Xiaoqing gave them some pumpkin seeds in exchange for a bag of jerky.

Two days later, the four of them went down the mountain and were blocked by a big river. Standing on the bank of the river, they saw the vast surface of the river, the water was crystal clear, and the sun was shining on the broad river surface. The bottom is clear.

Standing by the river and looking closely, you can see the sand and stones at the bottom of the river and fishes of all sizes swimming in the water.

There are towering trees on both sides of the river, thick leaves and vines hanging upside down on the river, blooming red, yellow... wildflowers, and the banks on both sides look like colorful barriers dotted with flowers.

Heiba ​​picked up a stone and threw it into the river. With a splash, ripples appeared on the river.The frightened wild birds all flew into the sky, circling and singing on the river, swooping down from time to time and flapping the water with their gorgeous wings.

A gust of wind blows, and the wild flowers on both sides of the river sway gently in the wind, as if in a fairy tale world.

Yao Xiaoqing looked at the beautiful scenery in front of him, and thought that it had been almost a month since he came out, and he didn't even see the shadow of the rice, so he couldn't help but feel a little depressed.She began to suspect that rice hadn't appeared in this time and space.

Jiang Li looked at Yao Xiaoqing who was standing on the shore, felt her frustration, put down his backpack and walked over, looking at her tenderly.

"Xiaoqing, we'll just stay here for a few days. Let's take a look around. I think there may be rice crops in the border of the adjacent waters."

Yao Xiaoqing nodded, "Okay, we'll stay here for a few days and look around."

Jiang Li put the baskets together, "You rest for a while, let's go and cut some bushes and palm leaves, build a tree house, have a good rest for two days before going to search nearby."

After listening to Yao Xiaoqing, he felt that what he said was also reasonable, and it was not a solution to search aimlessly all over the world.

"Okay, I'll collect firewood and look for wormwood, and you guys will chop trees and build tree houses." After speaking, he picked up the machete and started looking for wormwood.

There are many and poisonous mosquitoes in the forest. After being bitten, a large swelling instantly swells up.If it is not smoked with wormwood, it may be bitten to death by mosquitoes.

Fortunately, there were many by the river. After Yao Xiaoqing beat the lush weeds and vines and shrubs with a long wooden stick, he looked around vigilantly until the rustling disappeared, and then he raised a machete and chopped a large bundle of wormwood.

Tie it with vines and drag it to the place where Jiang Li is going to build a tree house.I started to pick up firewood, and there were a lot of dead branches falling in the forest. After a while, I picked up a lot and piled them together.

Blow the fire clip to ignite the thin branches, light a bonfire, and then put the wormwood upright beside the bonfire. The wormwood is roasted by the bonfire and emits bursts of wormwood fragrance.

She also picked up some mushrooms in the woods, and picked up a dozen wild duck eggs and put them back in the basket.Looking at the big bird perched by the river, I went back and shot with a bow and arrow.

Yao Xiaoqing stopped after shooting three birds in succession, picked up the wild bird with red legs and colorful feathers, cleaned it up by the river, smeared it with salt and seasoning, picked a few palm leaves to wrap it up, and dug some mud Wrapped.

I found a few stones, surrounded a simple earthen stove, took out a torch, lit firewood, and put it in the stove.When the fire ignites, put the waterfowl wrapped in mud into the fire.

Wash the wild duck eggs, dig out some mud, wrap them, and burn them in the fire. The cooked duck eggs are more fragrant than boiled ones.

Jiang Li took Heiba ​​and Daliang to find some small trees with thick arms and cut them down, shaved off the branches, and climbed up with Heiba ​​to a big tree that could only be hugged by a dozen people, and cut off the thick forks on the tree. , ready to build the tree house on it,
Da Liang raised the wooden stick below and passed it to the two of them.

The two used flexible rattan to tie the wooden sticks one by one in the middle of the thick tree fork. First, they used thick wooden sticks to lay the bottom layer, and then began to tie the surrounding wooden sticks.

Jiang Li turned his head to look at Yao Xiaoqing from time to time, and only felt relieved to work when she saw her nearby.
