Special Forces of Orcs Crossing

Chapter 109 The First Food Crisis of Primitive Tribes

When Frey came back, he brought back some winter bamboo shoots and some wild ducks, and also brought back a chill.It's already winter, and although it hasn't snowed yet, it's still terribly cold.

As soon as Frey heard that the baby moved in Di Nai's stomach today, he immediately ran over, wanting to touch Di Nai's belly.However, as soon as he stretched out his hand, he remembered that he hadn't washed his hands yet, so he rushed outside to wash his hands again.Frey came back after washing his hands, wiped off the moisture with a sackcloth, and then ran to Di Nai again.

However, just as he stretched out his hand, he retracted again and ran to the fire to warm himself.It turned out that he was afraid that his hands would be cold to Di Nai and the baby in his belly, so he wanted to warm them up before touching them.

Di Nai felt a little funny watching Frey running around the room in a panic as soon as he came back.So, when Frey ran up to him again, he grabbed Frey's hands without any explanation and pressed them to his belly.

Frey was a little taken aback, squatted down and stroked the stomach slowly, his face was completely excited and nervous.However, he didn't feel the baby's movement after touching it for a long time, so he put his face close to Di Nai's stomach with some doubts, wanting to feel the baby's heartbeat with his heart.Of course, I still feel nothing.

Frey whispered to the baby, "Hey baby, move it. Move it!"

Di Nai also lowered his head to look at his stomach, where there was a not-so-obvious bulge, like a general's belly.He thought to himself that if he became an official in the original world, he would be able to eat a general's belly when he was about forty years old.However, now this belly is much more expensive than a general's belly.

Ever since Frey heard from Pegg that his stomach was bigger when he was four months pregnant than Di Nai's now, he started trying every day to make the stomach bigger.

Frey also heard from Di Nai before that all kinds of soups are the most nourishing, especially the soups made from pheasant, wild duck, wild pigeon, fish, etc., so most of them brought back from hunting recently is the prey of this class.

Di Nai didn't care much about these things, he thought it would be better to let nature take its course.In fact, compared to those stews, he still likes to eat hot and sour stir-fried dishes.Speaking of which, he has been pregnant for more than four months, and the baby in his stomach is very obedient, and he didn't torture him much.Di Nai's appetite has always been good, and there are no other strange symptoms except that his body sometimes has a sore waist and legs.

In the past, Di Nai always felt that he would definitely suffer when he was pregnant. After all, he was not from this world, but the miraculous holy water allowed him to conceive a child smoothly. He himself felt a little unbelievable.

Frey stuck to Di Nai's stomach for a long time, but he still didn't feel the baby's fetal movement.He didn't give up, and kept murmuring and talking to the baby there.

Looking at Frey's cautious look, Di Nai suddenly felt his heart soften.He touched Frey's head with one hand and his stomach with the other, and said, "Baby, move and say hello to your father."

Finally, the baby moved again in the womb.At this moment, Frey felt it. He raised his head in shock, touched his face as if he couldn't believe it, and then laughed silly: "The baby punched me, hehe, it's so powerful. Our baby will Must be as powerful as you."

Di Nai patted his head angrily: "What are you talking about, do I often hit you?"

Frey rubbed his head embarrassingly: "No, I mean your fist is much stronger than mine. Hehe. Our baby will definitely be stronger if you teach him in the future."

Maggie and Zeni next to them listened to their conversation and laughed.Their patriarch actually thinks that he is not as good as a non-orc. If this word gets out, people's jaws will probably drop.But think about it carefully, if Di Nai becomes an orc who can transform, probably no one in the tribe is his opponent!It is also the pride of all their non-orcs to have such a powerful non-orc in the tribe!

Maggie smiled for a while, walked over to pick up a wild duck that Frey had hunted, looked at it, and said with some doubts: "Frey, why did you only hunt so few things? This wild duck is skinny, with a few bites. Just eat it, can you eat enough to eat?"

Frey was a little embarrassed: "I didn't see any good prey nearby, and I was worried about Di Nai, so I didn't fly further to hunt. I only came back after hunting these wild ducks. This is for Di Nai." For soup, I can eat bacon."

After hearing this, Maggie said thoughtfully: "As soon as you said it, I also remembered that Heda also told me recently that hunting is not as easy as it used to be, and you often have to fly to far away places to hunt before you can get anything. What's going on here?"

After hearing what they said, Di Nai wondered if there was a food crisis in the orc tribe?In the past, he always felt that the people of the orc tribe almost had no worries about food and clothing, because the orcs had wings and strong hunting ability, so they could survive the cold winter even without storing food.

Unexpectedly, there is a food crisis now, and even the mighty orcs can't hunt large animals.

Di Nai speculates that there are two reasons: one is that the population of the orc tribe has gradually increased in recent years, and the orcs basically do not pay attention to sustainable development in hunting, resulting in the gradual extinction of nearby large animals.Even animals that are not extinct have migrated to other places because of fear of orcs.The second is that many pterosaurs came and went around here last year. They eat a lot and eat a lot of animals.As a result, there has been a situation where there is now such a lack of success.

Di Nai felt that if the orc tribe didn't find a new way out, they might have to move soon.Because Di Nai reckoned that hunting would be more difficult the further back. If it took a day or two for each orc to hunt, then the tribe would be too empty and security problems would easily arise.What's more, such long-distance hunting would make the orcs very tired.

If that were the case, tribes might have to migrate to areas where animals were plentiful to survive.However, the orcs have lived here for generations. How easy is it to migrate?

Di Nai told everyone about this conjecture, which quickly aroused everyone's deep thinking.

Maggie was deeply troubled: "Di Nai, is what you said true? Could it be because it's winter and the animals are hiding and hibernating?"

Di Nai shook his head: "Even if the animals hide, how can they escape the sharp eyes and noses of the orcs?"

Frey followed suit and said: "Yes, we can find those animals even if they hid in the cave. The problem is, many animals do not hibernate! In the past, there were often groups of cattle and sheep on the grassland, but now they are basically I can’t see it anymore. Di Nai is right, the food crisis is coming soon, and this should attract the attention of all the people in the village.”

Several people were discussing the seriousness of the food crisis there, when Heda also came with prey.To Di Nai's surprise, Heda hunted a bear this time.After living in the tribe for so long, it was the first time Di Nai saw someone hunting a bear.This bear has a huge body, and the size and shape of the beasts are comparable to the orcs.Heda obviously put in a lot of effort, and he got a lot of color because of it.

Maggie saw it, and hurried over to help him bandage it, and at the same time complained with a bit of distress: "What do you think you are doing so much to hunt such a big guy? The meat of this thing is not tasty."

Heda said helplessly: "I wandered around for a long time and didn't see any prey. I only saw this big guy digging out its beehives, so I had to kill it. If I didn't catch this guy, I probably had to dig in the ground. Bamboo rat."

Maggie opened her eyes wide in surprise: "Heda, we were just discussing that the tribe has started to have a food crisis recently! I didn't expect it to be so serious." He turned his head and looked at Di Nai again: "Then what should we do? What to do? I don't want to leave here, I don't want to move to another place to live!"

Di Nai pondered for a while and said: "If you don't want to migrate, you must change some habits of the tribe now. First, when the orcs hunt, they must let go of the weak and immature animals so that they can reproduce. In addition, we should also raise some animals in captivity and let them breed. Secondly, the people of the tribe should change their waste habits and eat all the animals that can be eaten. Throw them all away. Again, the tribesmen should start farming like me. In this way, non-orcs can eat food, which is not only good for their health, but also saves a large part of their rations. If you persist in this way, you will be able to stabilize after a few years down."

Everyone listened and felt that these suggestions were very pertinent.Frey decided to hold a tribal meeting in a few days. At the meeting, he would inform the tribe about the current situation of the tribe, and then implement these measures.

After agreeing on a countermeasure, everyone's hearts are considered to be a little more stable.However, in the face of the predicament in front of us, everyone is still a little worried.After all, there is still half of winter to go!

When Maggie followed Heda to the river to deal with the bear, she kept thinking about how to deal with this big guy.In the past, he was used to being extravagant, throwing internal organs everywhere, but now he is not used to being frugal.Di Nai had no choice but to follow him to the river, and tell him how to wash those offal, and then how to process it so that it tastes good.

In fact, in Di Nai's view, it is a good thing to be able to discover this situation earlier.The females of the orc tribe are raised too comfortably, so they are a little bit reluctant to make progress.The orcs also felt that the food was sufficient and there was no need to change the status quo.This kind of thinking greatly reduces the creativity of the tribe people, which is not conducive to the development of the whole society.

Although Di Nai has been in this tribe for more than a year, in fact, there is no way to change the status quo too much.When Di Nai was farming, many people in the tribe thought it was a novelty.However, many people felt that Di Nai was completely superfluous.Is there anything in the jungle out there?Why bother with farming?When you want something to eat, can’t you just go outside and look for it?Farming is too much work.

Di Nai tried his best to convince everyone that this matter is necessary and important.The thoughts of the clansmen have not changed, and it is useless to let him say anything.Even if Frey is the head of the clan, he can't talk to the people of the clan. He can only support Di Nai with actions, hoping that the people of the clan will follow suit after seeing the results.

Well now, a crisis has emerged, and the clansmen have to change the status quo for their own survival.That's good, and soon the whole tribe will start farming.Di Nai has studied history and knows that only advanced productive forces are the driving force for social development.

If the clansmen hadn't engaged in production and changed the status quo, the orc tribe would have remained steadfast in this way, maintaining this backward state for thousands of years.

Di Nai felt that he could not bear the title of "God's Messenger" in vain. He hoped that with his efforts, he could speed up the progress of society and let the people of the tribe experience the changes brought about by advanced productive forces earlier, so that they To be able to live a little better.

At noon that day, Di Nai and the others ate not only the wild duck soup made by Frey, but also bear organs and bear paws.Those organs were fried and eaten by Di Nai, and the bear's paws were cooked by him for Maggie.Di Nai didn't know how to fix these things, thinking that they were all organs anyway, so they should be similar.

When Di Nai stretched out his chopsticks to pick up the braised bear's paw, he thought to himself, this is a bear's paw, a real delicacy, and it's just so braised in soy sauce, isn't it too wasteful?Then I thought, never mind it!No matter how precious bear's paw is, in this world, it is just a dish, and it is only reasonable to eat it to fill your stomach!
