I'm involved in poverty alleviation in a primitive tribe.

She's also gotten a new bone knife; otherwise, she always feels something's off whenever she sees those brown-feathered eagles from the clam tribe.

The tribesmen next to them were also picking up seafood. Jiang Ning had given them a few samples beforehand, and they were only allowed to pick up these kinds of seafood; they were not allowed to touch anything else.

Bai Ya was having a fierce competition with a large abalone nearby. You have to be quick to catch an abalone, otherwise it will get scared and stick firmly to the rock.

Fierce birds of prey swooped down to attack from time to time. Bai Ya put down the large abalone that he couldn't pry off and went back to fighting the birds of prey.

Besides various seafood, a lot of kelp was left on the beach by the tide. Jiang Ning didn't waste it; she picked it all up and dried it, which would be good for stewing soup or making cold dishes later.

After collecting enough seafood, Jiang Ning called the others to return to the cave with the full load of seafood. There was no need for any cooking; simply boiling the seafood in a stone pot with fresh water would be delicious.

It can be eaten raw, but Jiang Ning can't accept it.

After a few more days, the group dared not stay any longer. Many of the ferocious birds returned to their nests only to find that their entire nests had been wiped out, and they were now searching everywhere for their enemies.

Moreover, with so many young birds, all of which are carnivorous, raising them would be quite a challenge.

The Sirius tribe has harvested fifteen spirit-boned ferocious birds and eight strange-boned ferocious birds, enough to feed the tribe for a while.

The spirit bone ferocious bird contains a lot of energy, but most of the tribe's members are still at the level of a first-level warrior and can't eat much of it.

Jiang Ning instructed the Clam Tribe and Lotus Tribe to take only the young birds that exuded the aura of strange bone beasts. The ordinary young birds were left in the nest. Since the goal was to improve strength, there was no need to waste quotas to contract ordinary young birds as battle pets.

Among the thirty-seven young birds, there are about ten that exude the aura of ferocious beasts with spiritual bones. Once they grow up, the strength of the Lotus Tribe and the Clam Tribe will also increase significantly.

Jiang Ning planned to quickly have the tribe's warriors and Tianlang use the spirit bones to break through, otherwise, the strength of the subordinate tribes was too great, and even with the witch seal in hand, there was a possibility of backlash.

Back in the tribe, spring planting was almost complete, and Jiang Ning summoned the chief.

"This is sulfur. Chief, find an abandoned cave and put this sulfur inside. Don't let pregnant tribespeople or wolves near it, and don't let cubs near it either. And especially, there must be no fire in this cave!"

The chieftain replied, "Yes, Jiang Wu, I'll arrange it right away. I wonder what the sulfur is for?"

Jiang Ning said, "Grind this sulfur into powder and give some to the warriors of the hunting team. They can sprinkle it on the ground to repel insects when they spend the night outside, or they can burn it or use the smoke to fumigate it. If the tribesmen feel that there are too many insects in their caves, they can use it in the same way."

Jiang Ning picked up a small piece of sulfur and said to the chief, "When the tribe's planting team needs to irrigate the fields, they should also take some sulfur powder and soak it in water. Take this much sulfur for each plot of land. Water the fields with sulfur water every twenty days or so. If there are too many insects, just sprinkle sulfur powder directly or use smoke to fumigate them. Don't use it on seedlings."

The chief was overjoyed: "This sulfur can also deal with insects in the ground? This is wonderful! Last autumn, a lot of the vegetables we harvested were eaten by insects! The whole tribesman practically spends every day squatting in the fields catching insects!"

Jiang Ning couldn't help but laugh: "Don't use too much. It's better to spend more time and use small amounts multiple times than to scatter it all over the ground at once."

"Yes! I will definitely do as you say!"

The chief called a few men to move the sulfur into the cave and store it.

It would be good to briefly mention purity, but this is just for killing insects, there's no need to make it so complicated.

Jiang Ning first went to the cave to get a change of clothes, then went upstream to find a secluded spot to take a bath. After being outside for so many days, her body smelled of sulfur, sweat, and blood, a mixture of which was unbearable.

Excluding the tribesmen who were still hunting outside, Jiang Ning carefully selected from the remaining people and Tianlang, and finally managed to gather enough people.

Although many of the tribe's wolves have been upgraded to the level of the Bone Beast, only the wolves of the shaman, chieftain, Red Moon, and Water Green have been able to attempt a breakthrough.

Jiang Ning suggested that Hongyue and the chieftain also give it a try. Their strength had been stuck at the level two warrior for a long time. They only needed a little bit of opportunity. If they could break through successfully, the tribe would have two level three warriors.

In the end, Red Moon successfully broke through to become a level three warrior, while the chieftain failed.

Considering their usual division of labor, this result is not surprising.

As the hunting captain, Red Moon is always in battle. As the tribal leader, the chief needs to stay in the tribe to manage all the affairs of the tribe. Even if there are occasional attacks on the tribe by ferocious beasts, the chief has experienced far fewer battles than Red Moon.

Several wolves successfully broke through, and the tribe now has a total of five spirit bone wolves.

Jiang Ning left the tribe, intending to check on the situation of the Clam Tribe and the Lotus Tribe.

They brought back thirty-seven young birds, all of which were carnivorous, which stumped the Clam Tribe and the Lotus Tribe.

Now even the tribespeople rarely eat meat anymore; they have to feed these battle pets first.

The Clam Witch and the Lotus Witch have already come to borrow food several times.

Jiang Ning first went to the Clam Tribe. As soon as she entered the territory of the Clam Tribe, she could hear the cries of brown-feathered eagles everywhere.

A warrior from the clam tribe was struggling to feed his brown-feathered eagle. Even as a cub, the eagle was fierce. The clam tribe fed it meat and taro paste mixed together to make meatballs, with more taro paste than meat paste.

Brown-feathered eagles are carnivorous, so the young eagle naturally didn't want to accept such food. It stared fiercely at the food in front of it with its sharp eyes, clearly very dissatisfied with it.

Its sharp beak kept pecking at the food, but it refused to swallow the ball, as if protesting that the food did not suit its taste.

Seeing the brown-feathered eagle's reaction, the soldier was clearly helpless.

This is all the tribe can offer now. At least the brown-feathered eagle can eat a meal of pure meat every day, but the tribespeople can only eat these kinds of meatballs.

However, these young birds are all birds of prey. Once they are raised to adulthood, the tribe will immediately gain a lot of powerful fighting strength, which makes it hard to give them up.

A member of the clam tribe had already informed the clam shaman, who hurriedly came to greet him.

"Still not enough to eat?" Jiang Ning asked.

The clam shaman smiled bitterly: "I've already sent my people to hunt again. Now we're only catching ordinary wild beasts. There are few prey in the spring, and they don't have much meat on them. We can't eat them for long after we catch them."

Jiang Ning: "What about the fish in the Tianlang River? And the river beasts?"

Clam Shaman shook his head. He had also contracted a spirit bone ferocious bird, which was stronger and had a bigger appetite. Since the hunting team didn't know when it would return, he had already sent someone to take Clam to the upper reaches of the Sky Wolf River to fish.
