51. Plan well

In this way, the situation in the tribe temporarily settled down. As the days progressed, the construction of the wall gradually came to an end.Ling Yue led his people up the mountain, and finally installed the gate made of iron wood that he found in the place left at the bottom of the wall. A thick and long latch fell from the inside, and it was difficult to rush in no matter how hard it was hit from the outside.The wooden frame built on the inside of the high wall has also been built, and a ladder is built at the four corners to facilitate people going up and down.The wooden house has the best view. From inside, you can clearly see the beautiful scenery near Yanxi, and you can also clearly observe whether there are people approaching around.

Everyone was very curious about the newly built wall. After obtaining the consent of the priest and Chen Ting, they went up and walked around the wooden frame of the wall in batches, feeling more at ease in their hearts.

Xiyu pulled Ah Zhan to stand at the entrance of the wall, and looked at the tall wooden shelf with a curious face, and saw everyone watching and laughing with joy and surprise on the face, and couldn't help being envious.Chen Ting, who had just discussed the next things with An Yichen and the others, turned around and saw the expectant and shy expressions of his partner and son. He waved towards the others and walked towards them.

"Would Xiyu go up with me to have a look?" He took the other's hand and asked.

"Is it okay?" Upon hearing Chen Ting's words, Xiyu's eyes began to sparkle.

Chen Ting smiled and nodded, "Of course, we can see scenery from above that we have never seen before. Xiyu will definitely like it."

"Yeah." Xiyu nodded happily, and he could hear the clansman's discussion on the wooden shelf from below, and he knew that what he saw must be different.

As soon as little Ah Zhan heard that he could go up, he jumped up and down happily, obediently lying on his father's back, his little arms hugging his father's neck tightly.

"Xiyu follow me, just be careful." Chen Ting carried his son on his back and explained to his partner beside him.

The ladders on the four sides of the wooden frame are very wide. After Sanliu and An Yichen's suggestion, the appearance of the ladder is very close to the modern staircase, and there are wooden handrails on both sides, which should be said to be very safe and strong.But for people in the barbaric era where their feet rarely leave the ground, walking such a wooden ladder for the first time will also make them terrified.

Xiyu was clenched by Chen Ting with one hand, and tightly grasped the collar of the clothes on his chest with the other hand. Taking a step at a time, he carefully followed his partner and walked up slowly.Halfway through the walk, I started to hear the creaking sound of the wood when I stepped on it. Xiyu looked down and saw that the solid land was so far away from him, and the big tree beside the wall was actually under his feet. top.

"Ah Ting." He squeezed Chen Ting's hand tightly, and his body began to tremble.

Chen Ting pulled him into his arms and patted him softly, "Xiyu is not afraid, it's fine. Trust me, the ladder is very strong, don't look down, walk up slowly, okay?"

The voice of his partner always has the magic power to reassure him. Xiyu took a deep breath, nodded, and stared at Chen Ting with his big eyes without blinking, and followed his footsteps closely to continue walking up.

In the end, they stepped onto a sturdy wooden frame, and a platform more than three meters wide could accommodate two or three people standing there at the same time.Many tribesmen who came up early are moving to other places together or pulling their children, enjoying the scenery from a high place that they have never seen before.

Chen Ting knelt down to let Ah Zhan down, and hugged him in his arms.Taking advantage of his father's height, Ah Zhan could clearly see the distant scenery through the edge of the fence.The refreshing autumn wind of the plain blows on the face, and the dense forest can be seen in the distance like a green sea of ​​trees. When a gust of wind passes by, the green leaves form layers of waves, constantly churning.Many animals on the grassland are galloping, and the young lion follows behind the lioness, staggering to learn the might of the king.A little further away, the wide river rushes by, and the sound of the surging water flows into the ears, with a magnificent momentum.

"(⊙o⊙) Wow!" Ah Zhan blinked his big eyes that were as beautiful as Abba, "Ah Zhan has never seen it before, so beautiful."

Chen Ting smiled, rubbed his son's hair, and turned to look at his partner beside him, "How does Xiyu feel?"

"It's so beautiful." Xiyu's eyes were also full of shock. He never knew that he could still see such a beautiful scenery from such a high place.

Before, they only knew that there was a forest in the distance, there was a big river, and there were many animals on the wide grassland.But only very strong and agile men can really go there.Counting the entire tribe, there are not many people.But who would have thought that one day, they would be able to have a panoramic view of places that they never dared to imagine before just standing at the door of their house.

"Ah Ting is amazing." Xiyu looked at his partner with admiration.

If it weren't for Ah Ting, no one would have thought of such a good way to build a high wall to protect the entire tribe.

"Does Xiyu like it?" Chen Ting couldn't restrain his pride and satisfaction from being admired by his partner.

"Yeah." Xiyu nodded obediently, "This place is really beautiful."

"That's not right." Chen Ting covered his son's eyes with one hand, moved to Xiyu's mouth and kissed deeply, "I'm asking, does Xiyu like this kind of Ting?"

Being kissed by Ah Ting in a place with so many people made the shy Xiyu blush as if being burned by fire, she hurriedly lowered her head, pursed her lips and was speechless for a long time.

"Xi...Xiyu..." After a while, he nodded shyly but firmly, "Xiyu likes it."

'Xiyu likes Ah Ting the most'

Suddenly, such a sentence came out of his mind uncontrollably, it was still his own voice, but it didn't seem to be his own.

He froze for a moment, closed his eyes abruptly and shook his head vigorously.

"What's wrong?" Chen Ting asked worriedly seeing his abnormal movements.

Xiyu concealed a smile and said, "It's okay, Xiyu is fine."

He doesn't know what's wrong with him?But recently, I always hear some strange voices in my head.He didn't want Ah Ting to worry, so he couldn't tell Ah Ting.

Chen Ting didn't doubt that he was there, but gently stroked his forehead hair.

On the other side, a group of people came over together, surrounded by the old priests of the Yanxi and Deka tribes.

"Sacrifice Ann." Chen Ting and Xiyu saluted politely.

"Hmm." The old priest and the others had already turned around the entire wall, and they couldn't help being shocked and delighted by this incredible construction method.

"Ah Ting, with this fence, I really feel more at ease." Yanxi's priest, You Ya, had tears in his eyes in relief.

Chen Ting nodded and said, "When we were going to build this fence, we didn't consider building a wooden frame on the inside at all. In the end, Yichen came up with this suggestion. Now it seems that this wooden frame is very important for us to defend against foreign enemies in the future. It was a huge help.”

"Of course." Deka's priest nodded, "Our tribe was often attacked in the past, and many tribes who like to rob and invade other small tribes have a common habit, they all choose to use spears as weapons. Many times, our people have been stabbed by their spears from a long distance before they get close to them. But now with this fence, our people only need to stand here to fight back against them, really Much more convenient and safer.”

"Yeah." The old priest You Ya nodded, turned around with a smile and took An Yichen's hand, saying: "Fortunately, you were allowed to stay, Yaoshi An really did a lot for our tribe."

"You're being polite." An Yichen nodded indifferently.

Turning his head, he glanced at Ning Zhiyuan who was following behind the crowd without any trace.Originally, Ning Zhiyuan, who was full of resentment for the fact that An Yichen was getting more and more attention than himself now, and that he would bully him in everything, just being watched by him like this, suddenly felt that the whole person was not good.

"Hmph." He turned his head, with a look of disdain.

An Yichen was calm on the surface, but he couldn't help laughing and shaking his head inwardly.

Chen Ting watched the people talking, and out of the corner of his eye, he noticed that Sanliu had been standing by the wall and looking down at something since he came over.

"What's wrong?" he asked.

Sanliu withdrew half of her body that was stretched out, and frowned slightly, "I have an idea, but I don't know if it's feasible."

"What?" asked the others.

Sanliu glanced at Lingyue and Mike beside him, and finally set his eyes on Yunchao, "The leader of Yunchao has the ability to drive vines, and the leader of Lingyue can also drive water as a weapon. If the two If it can be very helpful to us in the future, I would like to lead a canal in front of the wall, and then plant trees that can grow thick and long vines between the canal and the wall.”

Chen Ting and An Yichen looked at each other, as if they understood what he meant.

"You mean, put the most beneficial weapon for them next to the fence, so that if they encounter another attack, they can use their abilities?" An Yichen asked.

Sanliu nodded, "That's exactly what I mean."

Chen Ting looked at Ling Yue and Yun Chao. The former had no opinion on this matter, but Yun Chao pursed his lips and slightly lowered his head, not knowing what he was thinking.

"Does the leader of Yunchao have other ideas?" Chen Ting asked.

Yun Chao hesitated for a moment, then shook his head, "No, it's just...my ability is not very stable. Sometimes the vines will be very obedient, but sometimes I can't do what I want." Just like the last two times he thought They wanted to drive the vines to attack Mike, but every time the vines' strength didn't persist enough to wrap around the man's body, they retreated inexplicably.

Thinking of this, Yun Chao felt angry again, and glared at the man next to him bitterly.Mike was stunned by the stare, as long as he scratched his hair, he quickly apologized.

Sanliu looked back and forth between him and Yun Chao, somewhat understanding Yun Chao's concerns.

"Leader Yunchao, don't worry, I believe that your ability can be used very well." As he spoke, he pointed at Chen Ting and the others with a smile, "Actually, to tell you the truth, Ah Ting, Yichen and Ling They all have abilities similar to yours, and there are ways to increase such abilities. As long as you can master it, you will be able to control it well."

"How do you know this?" Yun Chao never expected that there would be someone with similar abilities to him.

"Hmm..." Sanliu hesitated for a while, turned his eyes around, and finally said with a smile: "There are people like this in my hometown, so I know a little bit about it. I will tell you in detail when we stabilize later. This matter."

"Okay." Yun Chao believed him and nodded in approval.

Priest Youya watched from the side as Sanliu calmly solved everyone's problems. During the conversation, he had good solutions to many things, and an idea formed in his mind.

"Now that everyone has settled down and the walls have been built. The last rainy season is coming, but I don't think we can stay indoors all day and do nothing. At least until winter comes There are many things waiting for us." Sanliu said to the crowd.

Chen Ting asked, "What do you mean?"

"Some of the plants that Mike brought back from the canyon are very precious seeds. We can consider planting them before the rain. Some of the animals brought back need to be temporarily placed in a place. They also need shelter during the rainy season. Rainy days Since we can’t do outdoor activities, it’s better to do more indoor things. Many females are more interested in firing kilns. I plan to find some people to completely remodel Handa’s house in the next few days. It becomes a kiln, and the outer room allows everyone to knead embryos with mud."

"That's a good idea." An Yichen nodded in agreement.

Chen Ting thought for a while, and said, "I think I can take this opportunity to teach carpentry skills to those who are willing to do it, so that when the rainy season is over, when building houses, there will be many people who can help."

"Yeah." Sanliu nodded, and then turned his attention to Zhiyuan and Xiyu, "The females of the two new tribes don't know many life skills, so Xiyu and Zhiyuan can learn how to make salt and soap method to them.”

For people in the barbaric era, hygiene and salt intake were the two most important things.Now that new tribes have joined, they need to teach them how to eat healthy.

"Okay." Zhiyuan and Xiyu nodded.

"Finally..." Sanliu glanced at A Zhan who was following Chen Ting's legs, lowered his voice and said to An Yichen beside him: "The learning of characters should also gradually infiltrate into their lives."

"I think so too." An Yichen nodded without hesitation.

"Actually, Deka also has something, which may be useful to everyone." The old priest of Deka looked at the detailed and serious words of the three or six people, and couldn't help but want to contribute.

"What?" Priest Youya asked.

Yun Chao stood up and took out something from his pocket, "This is our golden seed, planted in water, it can grow white particles that can be used, and can be used for grinding or cooking porridge."

"This is..." Chen Ting looked at the thing in his hand in astonishment.

"It should be rice." Sanliu said.

"Great, now we have enough ingredients. As long as we grow them properly, I believe that the food of the three tribes will not be a problem in the coming year." Priest Youya said with a smile.

"Hmm." The others nodded.

The new plan was decided in this way, and all the people were assigned to their suitable jobs.In the coming last rainy season, it seems that everyone is going to be busy.
