Ji Lang also thought that it was because of this. After all, in such a harsh era and environment, having a solid door and a warm place is a kind of guarantee for everyone. "I can teach you, but not now. To make these, you need bricks and burn them. There is not enough firewood in the cold season."

Thinking of what he had seen in some videos before, Ji Lang continued, "But if you can find a flat stone, you can build a kang first instead of using bricks."

Dayan immediately replied, "We can find it. There is a river next to our tribe. There are many big rocks by the river. We can break them and polish them ourselves."

Ji Lang nodded, "Okay." Then he carefully explained to Dayan the principles and methods of building a kang.

Dayan listened attentively, feeling waves of excitement in his heart.

The tribe has just experienced a huge change, and now everyone is panicked and uneasy. They urgently need someone or something that can calm everyone's mood. He thinks this kang can do it.

Although the old chief had been forced to step down, he was still alive and had some loyal supporters. He needed something that could bring changes to the tribe.

In this battle, it seemed that he was the winner, but in fact, there was no winner in the end, as they were all from the same tribe.

After Ah Hua came out that night, they agreed on how to lure the wolves out and took action immediately.

Before she left, she took out the bag that Ji Lang gave her to attract wolves from her thick clothes and placed it inside the goose's fur, keeping it close to her body so that the blood inside would not coagulate.

This bag contains fresh duck blood, which is wrapped in several layers of plastic bags so it won’t show through and has no smell.

The next day, Dahu was going to take them to ambush. It was clearly still one day before the time revealed by Ah Hua, but he had no patience to wait.

After dark that night, Dayan found an opportunity to have a conflict with Dahu. Considering that he would have to fight Qingjiu and his gang the next day, Dahu did not dare to fight with Dayan. Dayan then left with a group of people, saying that they would act together the next day. Otherwise, both sides would be defeated before the fight with Qingjiu and his gang even started.

Before leaving, Dayan sprinkled the bag of duck blood at the entrance of the cave where Dahu and his companions were staying.

The howling and shouting of wolves that night resounded throughout the valley, but the geese and their companions never showed up.

When they returned at dawn the next day, there were only people lying on the ground with injuries of varying degrees of severity and severity, and the corpses of a few wolves.

Da Hu was not dead, but the bones of his left leg were exposed. Seeing Dayan coming back at this time, he was confused. His pale face was full of mocking smiles, "You can actually be so cruel as to not care about the lives of these brothers you brought up." He knew how tragic the battle was last night when he smelled the strong smell of blood around him.

Dayan looked at the people sitting against the wall, numb from the pain, and the people lying beside them who had long since stopped breathing. His face was expressionless, and he lowered his eyes to hide the emotions in his eyes. "When they chose to stand with you, they were no longer my brothers. If I don't do this, sooner or later, it will be me and the brothers behind me, and even my partner and children, lying here."

The dead people and wolves were hastily buried in the snow, and the geese took the remaining people back to the tribe. There was no other way. The ground was frozen in winter and they couldn't dig a pit, so they had no choice but to do this.

Originally, he planned to skin the wolves and give them to Qing Jiu and the others. However, the dead wolves had been frozen all night and were as hard as rocks. His bones could not be cut at all, so he had to give up.

Dayan also took back the injured people that Dahu had taken with him. It was not because they were kind or anything, but with injuries like these, even if they returned to the tribe, it would be difficult for them to survive on their own. Dayan could not just watch them die here.

For a hunter, dying in a hunt is an honor, but being injured, unable to do anything and having to wait to die is a very humiliating thing.

They were worried that the surviving wolves would come back for revenge. After all, wolves are creatures that bear grudges to the same extent as humans. Moreover, the brothers who were sent out by the leader to look for tigers should have returned to the tribe. They had to go back before they were targeted by the leader. So Dayan and Ahua just looked up when they passed by the foot of the mountain in the courtyard, and then set out on the journey back to the Baiyun tribe.

After returning, as expected, the people who had been out had returned. They thought that Dayan's family and other brothers had been taken away and killed by the leader's men. They even had a conflict with the leader and split into two factions.

Seeing the returning wild geese, the originally scattered group of people gained a backbone and quickly defeated the leader.

Everyone supported Dayan to become the new leader, but he refused on the grounds that a tribal leader could not have only one hand. After all, most leaders were chosen from the strongest fighters in the tribe. If there was a conflict with other tribes, and he stood up as the leader, the first thing others would see was his one-arm, and he would lose in momentum.

Dayan didn't want this to happen, and he was too lazy to take care of the affairs of a tribe. In the end, he chose another powerful hunter in the tribe, Dalu, to be the leader of the tribe.

The deer is a few years older than the wild goose. Ever since the wild goose became a hunter and started going out together, the two have been a tacit partner and know each other's personalities very well. The wild goose is not worried that the deer will do something to abandon him.

After arranging matters in the tribe, Dayan and Ahua brought their belongings and a small team here to pick up Abai.

Abai held the kitten doll that Lan made for him and sat in front of the stove, wiping his tears. He didn't want to leave. Although he had only been here for a short time, he was really happy. There were many toys he had never played with before, delicious food, and he wouldn't be woken up by the cold in the middle of the night.

He likes this place so much.

Xiaoman came in holding another yellow doll and handed it to Abai, "Brother Abai, don't cry, this little duck is for you. It's my favorite doll. You hold it as if we are still playing together."

Feng Hewu also gave Abai some candies and toys from his own collection. Abai, who was originally just wiping away tears, could no longer hold back and started crying loudly.

As soon as Abai started crying, the little kid who had just finished drinking milk on the kang in the next room also started crying. Soon, the only sounds in the yard were the loud crying of a child.

From time to time, there were some dog barkings.

......

It’s so lively.

Ji Lang, who was drawing a diagram for the geese with a wooden board and a burnt wooden stick, had to stop what he was doing and wanted to comfort the children. But just as he walked in front of Xiaoman, Xiaoman, who was originally fine, suddenly curled her lips, her eyes turned red, and she started crying when she saw him.

Okay, it’s the same whether you coax one or two.

After repeating this over and over again and promising many times to wait until later and let Dayan and Ahua bring Abai to play, the children finally calmed down.

When everyone stood at the gate and watched the family of three leave with even bigger packages on their backs, Xiaoman asked again, "Father, will Brother Bai really come again?"

"Yes, Uncle Dayan will learn a lot from grandpa and grandma in the future, so he will come often. When the snow melts and the road is easier to walk on, brother Bai will come too." Ji Lang said while touching the little guy's head.

Xiaoman hugged the cat doll in her arms and began to look forward to meeting her brother Abai next time.

He gave his little duck doll to Abai, and Abai left his little cat doll to him.

Children's friendship is very pure. They became so close after playing together for a few days that Ji Lang became a little jealous. The old father Ji Lang was full of jealousy in his heart, and Qing Jiu was not in a very good mood either.

There was no way. Xiaoman and Wu slept next door these days, and Ji Lang let them act recklessly. They enjoyed a feast of fish and meat every night. But before these good days were over, the two little guys had to come back to be light bulbs again. Thinking of having to go back to the hard days before, he couldn't help but sigh.

He had to find a way to let the little kids live on their own. He wanted to have his own world with Ji Lang.

After seeing off the family of three, everyone began to count the herbs and furs they brought.

"This is fox fur, red fox at that. The color is so beautiful. There are three of them. We can make two coats for Sa Shi's two cubs. It will be so nice to wrap them up and take them out for some fresh air." Lan said as she sorted the furs. It can be seen that the furs that Ah Hua brought were all very good ones, all carefully sorted. The fur was soft and clean.

Sa Shi fiddled with the pile of shiny stones and said, "Why make them for them? It's such a waste. They can't wear them many times. Sister-in-law, you can keep them to make a coat for yourself or for Chuan. These stones are really beautiful. Give me some."

"If you like it, you can share it. We don't want this." Ji Lang felt it was quite magical. It was rare to see Sa Shi have such a girlish side. She actually liked this kind of beautiful little stone. Maybe giving birth to a child stimulated her maternal instinct and also brought out her girlish heart.

For some reason, Ji Lang always felt something was wrong.

Suddenly I remembered that Sa Shi had just given birth to a child. Then I looked at the person standing on the snow pile in front of me, counting stones happily, and was shocked, "No, Sa Shi, why are you coming out now?" Even if she didn't have to sit out the full month of confinement, it wouldn't be appropriate to run out into the snow and ice after just over half a month.

Sa Shi looked at him in confusion, "I came out when the child fell asleep, and Am agreed."

"No, no, go in quickly, don't be blown by the cold wind." Although he didn't know whether the confinement period itself had any scientific basis, Ji Lang also knew that some women did not pay attention to keeping warm after giving birth or were accidentally blown by the wind, which would leave sequelae for life, commonly known as confinement disease.

While pushing Sa Shi back to the house, he gave her a brief introduction on confinement after childbirth. "Do you know why many women in your tribe are in poor health after giving birth? It's because they didn't take good care of themselves during the confinement period, and they didn't recover well, which seriously damaged their vitality. If you want to go out hunting in good health like before, just listen to me and stay indoors quietly for a month."

Sa Shi didn't understand what confinement was, but out of trust in Ji Lang and fear of not being able to go hunting in the future, he obediently listened to Ji Lang's words.

The skin of the two little guys on the kang is no longer wrinkled, and their round little faces are very smooth. If Ji Lang was not worried about waking them up, he would have wanted to reach out and rub them.

My brother looks like Sa Shi, heroic and delicate. His hair was black when he was born, so you can imagine how much hair he will have in the future.

My sister's face is shaped like Sa Shi, and her facial features are like Xi Shi, with beautiful almond-shaped eyes, a small and straight nose, and a chubby little mouth. Even when she is asleep, she still blows bubbles.

Sa Shi helped them move the wooden board in front of the kang to block the wind. The two little guys would sometimes wake up and rub against each other, easily getting their hats rubbed off. Xi Shi was worried that they would get cold, so he put up a screen-like wooden board at the head of the kang.

These days Xishi has been learning carpentry from Jilang. He wants to make a shelf on the kang to separate the head of the kang from the place where the two children sleep, for he is worried that the children will accidentally fall off the kang when they grow up.

Being a parent is really different. Xishi now spends every day looking after the kids and making things for them, sometimes toys and sometimes small weapons. In short, he never has a moment to rest.

Sa Shi, who used to be a careless and seemingly brainless person, has now learned to take care of the cub carefully and understands what postures and methods will make the cub comfortable.

After cleaning up the things in the yard, everyone began to study the marks left by Ji Lang's shot. The small silver steel ball was still stuck in the wood. Ji Lang used a knife to dig it out and it could be recycled.

Feng's face was full of admiration and the desire to play, "Brother Lang, your gun is really amazing! Can we use it?"

"I made this for everyone to use. The gun is powerful, easy to use, and can attack the enemy from a distance. It is very suitable for teenagers or people who are not good at close combat." Ji Lang once again installed the small steel ball on the elastic rope pad on the gun and pulled it above the trigger to secure it.

This wooden gun is much easier to aim than a slingshot. Ji Lang asked everyone to stand further away and fired at the broken wooden pillar again. This time it didn't break. The steel pillar went straight through the wooden pillar and got stuck on the earth wall behind it.

Ji Lang patiently began to teach everyone how to use the wooden spear and how to aim.

"Remember, when you practice, don't aim at people around you or living animals, okay?" The power of the steel ball is such that if it really hits a living thing, it will at least leave a bloody hole. Ji Lang reminded him many times.

Feng and Ye nodded. They were the first two to learn how to use the gun. The other children were too young, and Ji Lang was worried that they might hurt themselves, so he didn't plan to let them learn for the time being.

Ye needs to learn this for self-defense because he is weak and has little fighting ability.

Ji Lang plans to make more, so that everyone will have one in the future. Lan, Li, and Uncle Lin will each keep one for self-defense when necessary.

Ah Hua and Dayan also said when they came that although the battle between Da Hu and his group and the wolf pack was very fierce, with several wolves dead and the rest injured and running away, the wolves would most likely come back again. They have not been completely wiped out, and as long as there are wolves alive, they will come back for revenge. They are extremely vengeful creatures.
