Chapter 13: Initial Discussion on the Concept of Building a House

Li washed her hands, shook them, and stretched them out to Chen Shiyue and said, "Shiyue, look, I'm clean."

Chen Shiyue smiled and nodded: "Yes, it's very clean."

Li's eyes suddenly fell on Chen Shiyue's hands. She widened her eyes in shock and asked, "Shiyue, we are washing our hands too, why are your hands so white and beautiful?"

Everyone looked over with a look of surprise.

Chen Shiyue looked down at her hands. Oops, she washed off the chocolate powder. She couldn't take off the vest for the time being. She said mysteriously, "I'll tell you when I get back from the trade fair."

Li said a little frustratedly: "It took so long."

Yiyun stepped forward and said, "Why rush? Just a few days will do." He carried Chen Shiyue away.

Li and others hurried to follow.

When they returned to the big cave, Chiqing had already arranged the fruits and animal skins.

The females sit in a row and eat the fruits.

During the meal, Li and the others kept looking at Chen Shiyue's hands. Ya also noticed the difference in the skin on Chen Shiyue's hands, but she didn't say anything, just thinking about it.

Li was not happy and said, "Shiyue, why did you have to wait until you came back from the trade fair to tell us?"

Chen Shiyue blinked and said, "Because I have a secret, but now is not the right time."

Li pursed her lips.

Chen Shiyue suddenly became curious and asked, "Li, how old are you?"

Li stretched out her two hands and made the shape of the figure eight.

Chen Shiyue was stunned and asked, "Ten winter seasons plus eight winter seasons?"

Li nodded.

Chen Shiyue was shocked. People in primitive society really married early. She asked again, "Where's your son?"

Li said: "Two winter seasons."

In other words, Li became pregnant and gave birth to a baby when she was about sixteen years old.

Li was only eighteen years old, so how old were Honghua and the others? She looked over curiously.

Honghua immediately said, "I am two winter seasons older than Li, and both of my cubs are Di Qing's, four winter seasons."

Ye Zi said, "I am one winter season younger than Li, and I don't have a child yet."

Lan said a little shyly: "I am three winter seasons older than Li, and three winter seasons older than Li."

Yudao: "I am seven seasons older than Lan. The male cub is four seasons older, and the female cub is three seasons older."

Chen Shiyue made a few comments in her heart. After all this time, she has become the eldest sister. Except for Yu and Ya, everyone here is younger than her. She thought Yu was in her thirties, but it turned out that she was only twenty-eight. It must be said that these females are growing up a little anxiously.

Judging from this, Ya wouldn't be that big. Then are the orcs also small? He couldn't help but look at Yiyun who was talking to the orcs.

Li followed Chen Shiyue's gaze and said, "The leader is three seasons older than me. Whose age does Shiyue want to know?"

Chen Shiyue looked at Ya.

Li said, "Ya'am, you are five winter seasons older than me, twice as old."

In other words, Ya'am is only 41 years old, which is unexpected but reasonable.

Li smiled and said, "It's my turn to ask Shiyue, Shiyue, how old are you?"

Chen Shiyue smiled and said, "I am four seasons older than you."

After that, everyone looked over.

Li opened her mouth in surprise, and then she wanted to cry: "Why do you look younger than me? Woohoo, is it true that I look too old?"

Chen Shiyue hurriedly comforted her, "Our Li is not old at all, she is still young, beautiful and healthy. When I come back from the trade fair, I will dress you up and make sure you are beautiful."

Li immediately became happy again and said, "Okay, don't regret it."

Chen Shiyue nodded.

After a while, the two hunting teams left, and the two flying beasts Yifei and Yitian also followed the two teams.

Yiyun came over.

Ya asked, "Chief, aren't you going out today?"

Yiyun said, "We have been searching for so many days, but we still haven't found a better place to live than here. We won't go out for the next few days. We will stay here to prepare things for the trade fair."

Ya said solemnly: "Is there no better place, or has it been occupied by another tribe?"

Yiyun did not hide it and said, "The nearby ones are mainly surrounded by herbivorous tribes. There are few forests and many plains. There are not many prey. We mainly hunt herbivores. Hunting prey that has no lethality will reduce our combat effectiveness. The forests farther away have more prey and they are stronger, but they are all occupied by carnivorous tribes. There are many prey in the ownerless forests, and we haven't found them yet. Perhaps we need to go to a farther place to have a look. If we can't find any, we can only spend the winter season here first."

Chen Shiyue listened quietly. There were two problems. One was that the fighting power of herbivores would decrease if they were caught frequently, and the other was that forests with a lot of prey were basically owned by owners. She couldn't help but ask, "Do orcs have to fight frequently to maintain their fighting power?"

Yiyun said: "You can say that."

Chen Shiyue asked: "What if you fight on your own?"

Li was surprised and said, "Shiyue, orcs hunt for prey, how can they fight among themselves?"

Yiyun looked at her seriously and said, "It can also maintain or improve combat effectiveness."

Chen Shiyue said: "I have an idea. We don't need to look for a forest with a lot of prey. We can settle down on the plains and raise our own prey. When we are free, the orcs can fight and learn from each other."

The orcs and females present were stunned after hearing this.

Mo Chen said: "But, there are no caves on the plains, how can we build a home and raise prey?"

Chen Shiyue said: "In fact, my previous tribe raised their own prey. Some herbivorous animals can be domesticated. We just enclose a place, lock the prey in it, and feed the prey at a fixed time every day. As for the lack of caves on the plains, we can build houses to live in."

Yiyun's pupils trembled slightly and he was excited again.

He said, "I asked you before, what do you want after you helped the tribe? You said they wanted to help you build a house. Is that the house you are talking about now?"

Chen Shiyue nodded and said, "Yes, living in a cave is not as comfortable as living in a house. A house can be built anywhere, and each family can build one. You can build as many as you want. You don't have to live in a crowded place. A house is warmer than a cave, and you don't have to worry about strong winds blowing in. It's not that cold in the winter."

Mo Chen was no longer calm, and he came closer and asked, "Shiyue, how do we build a house?"

Chen Shiyue said, "There is wood everywhere here, and we can use wood to build a house. Of course, soil and stone will also work. Father Mochen, can we discuss these after we return from the trade meeting?"

Mo Chen sat back and said, "Okay, listen to Shi Yue."

Chen Shiyue looked at everyone who was a little excited and said, "Now, some people continue to make animal skins. Yu, by the way, make a strap for the animal skin skirt that can be tied, similar to the vine on my waist, otherwise some skirts are too big and will fall off."

Yu blushed slightly and said, "I didn't think it through. In the past, we stuffed the animal skins when we wore them. If they fell off accidentally, we just picked them up and stuffed them back in."

Chen Shiyue imagined the scene and smiled unkindly.

Yiyun said, "Those who were making animal hides yesterday should continue making animal hides."

An orc raised his hand and said weakly, "But, I want to change today."

Yiyun looked at him and said, "We can change it later. Now that you are familiar with how to make animal skins, it will be faster."

The orc had nothing to say. Yes, now we have to hurry up and make the animal skins for the trade fair. The more familiar we are with it, the faster we make it, the better.

Mo Chen said, "We are more familiar with weaving bamboo baskets. We still have a lot of bamboo. Let's continue weaving bamboo baskets today."

Chen Shiyue looked at Li and Honghua and said, "I'm going to lead the orcs to dig for stone pots today, and the females can't help. Li, you and Honghua follow Ya'am to learn how to make animal skins. In the evening, I will teach you how to cook delicious meat, okay?"

Li wanted to follow, but felt that she could not help, so she said aggrievedly: "Okay, you must teach me how to cook meat tonight."

Chen Shiyue said: "Of course, of course, I need to make a cooking container first."

Li was puzzled and asked, "Can't you cook things in a bamboo tube?"

Chen Shiyue said: "That one is not strong enough, it breaks easily, and it's not big enough. I want to make a big pot that won't break easily to cook food."

In the end, Yiyun was the only one following Chen Shiyue.

Chi Qing said: "How about I go with you?"

Yiyun looked at Chen Shiyue, who nodded and said, "Sure."
