For more than half a month after the land was reclaimed, Lin Xi had been thinking about the structural principles of the waterwheel.

Nearly a month later, after two attempts, her waterwheel was finally completed!

Of course, when making the waterwheel, we still relied on the orcs in the tribe.

On the day when the waterwheel was officially installed, almost all the orcs in the tribe came to watch.

Hundreds of orcs in the tribe suddenly crowded the river beach, which was usually deserted, and it was completely blocked!

If the things Lin Xi had made before were only novel to the orcs, but still easy to understand, then this big thing that stood up, made of wood, but could move on its own, was completely beyond their cognition.

If they had not been able to confirm that this was something that the wise man Lin Xi came up with, they would definitely think that this was a blessing bestowed by the Beast God!

The little ones who followed their parents here all cried out in excitement at the same time when they saw the waterwheel slowly turning under the push of the water flow!

Some of them even ran towards the waterwheel and tried to touch it, which scared Lin Xi!

But fortunately, they were stopped by the soldiers guarding the water truck nearby!

Lin Xi breathed a sigh of relief. Fortunately, she had asked Bai Nu to arrange for the tribe's warriors to guard the place in advance! But after that, Lin Xi couldn't help but repeat several times and told the guarding warriors:

"When the waterwheel is turning, no other orcs can touch it!"

Then he gave serious instructions to the orcs who were watching.

Of course, there was some deliberate scare in his words: "You must keep an eye on your little ones. The rotating waterwheel is very dangerous. If you are not careful, it will eat their arms!"

These words frightened the little animals who were watching so much that they opened their eyes wide in fear and instantly hid behind their parents.

Lin Xi was very satisfied with what he saw!

The weather is still a bit cold now, so we have to wait some time before starting sowing.

The various fruits and vegetables that Lin Xi had planted in the cave before had already matured. Even the fruits and vegetables that Lin Xi had planted during his second experiment were already edible.

Lin Xi finally had some general understanding of the growth habits of these plants. At least he was no longer completely in the dark!

Now we just have to wait for the temperature to rise so that we can plant all the seeds!

After breakfast that morning, Lin Xi and Wu Chen took their farm tools and left the house.

Lin Xi plans to work with Wu Chen to clear the open space on the right side of the cave that they have already spotted.

In the past two days, more orcs who want to get married have started to build huts at the foot of the hill. This is the third pair since the beginning of winter!

Lin Xi was worried that there would be other orcs who would move in at any time, so he decided to quickly occupy the land he liked, so as to avoid being beaten to it by others.

She chose a location for the vegetable garden thirty meters away from the cave entrance, where the terrain was actually a slope of the mountain.

The ground between the cave entrance and the vegetable garden is relatively flat. Lin Xi thought that she might build a house or a shed to store things on it in the future, so she left a little more space between the cave entrance and the vegetable garden.

After the soil in the vegetable garden was turned over, Lin Xi found some branches of similar size and built a wooden fence outside the vegetable garden.

The fence is very short and the gaps are large, so it cannot serve as a barrier.

But Lin Xi built the fence not to prevent orcs from sneaking in, but purely to tell other orcs that this place has an owner!

She was not worried about the orcs in the tribe stealing things, because the orcs had never had doors in their homes before. Because they had a keen sense of smell, if an orc stole something, he would be found out by other orcs in the next second!

Therefore, even if there are conflicts between the orcs, most of them are kept on the surface. Because once they do something bad behind the scenes, the smell on their bodies will immediately expose them!

After the vegetable garden was completed, Lin Xi had a few days of free time.

But I couldn't stay idle for long.

Since the temperature has shown a trend of rising, the grass on the hillside and the forest in the distance have turned green almost visibly.

The flow of Mogan River is much stronger than in winter. It flows rapidly between the two mountains and flows eastward.

Everything in the forest is coming back to life, and the animals that had hidden deep in the forest are gradually returning to their familiar habitats.

The only food left in Lin Xi and Wu Chen's home was some pickled meat that could be preserved for a longer period of time, so Wu Chen began to go out hunting every day again.

That morning, Wu Chen came back from hunting two curly-haired beasts.

These two curly-haired beasts were very large but very thin. It seemed that the winter with a shortage of food had just passed, and they had not had time to fatten up before they were caught by Wuchen.

Lin Xi looked at the two curly-haired beasts, which looked extremely lean after removing their skins, and finally decided to have a morning barbecue.

Just make it sour, sweet and spicy, using all the seasonings you can.

Now that the weather is warm, when making smoky foods such as barbecue, Lin Xi prefers to build a fire outside the cave.

Wu Chen built a fire outside and put the two curly-haired beasts coated with sauce on the fire. Just as he was about to light the fire, he saw a male beast named Wu Xing hurriedly running to the entrance of Bai Nu's cave next door and called Bai Nu out!

Lin Xi recognized the male beast; he was a warrior of the Black Panther tribe.

After Cangju, Cangxing and Huijie were transferred to stand guard at the guard tower by the Mogan River, he and several other warriors are now responsible for guarding the guard tower outside the main gate of the tribe.

Is it his turn to stand guard today?

Why are you rushing here to see Bai Nu? Has something happened?

Lin Xi looked over there worriedly, and his hands' movements slowed down unconsciously.

Suddenly, the light beside her dimmed!

When I looked up, I found that it was Wu Chen who suddenly stood up.

The shadow cast by his strong and tall body enveloped her entire body, and he was looking in the direction of the main gate of the tribe.

Lin Xi followed his gaze and was immediately startled!

The distance was too far to see clearly, but Lin Xi could still make out that there was a dark crowd there, with at least a hundred orcs!

Lin Xi stood up immediately, feeling the hairs on her body stand up. She stared at the dark mass of orcs over there, raised her hand and grabbed Wu Chen's arm with some uneasiness: "Wu Chen, are those orcs over there from our tribe?"

It can't be that the orcs from the tribe went out hunting and came back together as a group?

Sensing the female beast's uneasiness, Wu Chen stretched out his arm and patted Lin Xi's slender back: "No, but, there should be no malicious intent."

Hearing this, Lin Xi was stunned.

She looked up in confusion. The orc's face showed some understanding and relief, as if he already knew something.

Just as Lin Xi was about to ask, Wu Chen lowered his head and explained to her: "Those should be small tribes from other places who want to join our Shanhuo tribe."

Finally, fearing that Lin Xi still didn't understand, Wu Chen added: "Just like the tribe that Mian Xin's father used to live in."

Mian Xin's father was the father of the injured female sheep beast that time when a lone beast broke into the tribe. Lin Xi remembered that he said at that time that the sheep beastmen in the tribe now were originally a small tribe, and later joined the Mountain Fire Tribe.

Thinking of this, Lin Xi finally breathed a sigh of relief.

At this moment, Bai Nu suddenly walked over here and said, "Wise Man Lin Xi, please come with me to the main gate of the tribe."
