Beginning Backpack [Farming]

After three days in the sun, the soybeans and rice were almost completely dried. Shen Huaijin made a rattan sieve and used it to sift out the sand, stones and dust. The leather bag was packed and put into the rattan basket.

Yuan worked carefully and saw that there were two different kinds of rice. He specially separated them when threshing rice and drying the rice, and in the end they piled up exactly like a basket of rice and a basket of glutinous rice.Soybeans are less, and after drying, they only look like a basket.

At this point, everyone didn't want to stay any longer, and planned to return on the day they got the things.

The tribes that are far away, such as the Anshan tribe and the Youshui tribe, have all left. Even the Youhou tribe in Linshanyuan went on the road the day before, but the leader insisted on sending them to the edge of the forest. With a pair of round eyes, she looked at Shen Huaijin pitifully.

Shen Huaijin also smiled helplessly at Yuan, he is out of sugar.

"Leader Gan, send it here." Everyone stopped, and Shen Huaijin persuaded Qian Qian.

"Jin Wu, Li, I will go to Shihuoyuan to go to the market next hot season, and I will also drop by your Dahe Tribe as a guest!"

Li clenched his fist and lightly thumped his chest. In the Orc Continent, this was a sign of solemnity and respect.

"Of course, on behalf of the Great River Tribe, I welcome Chief Gan and friends from the Great Mori Tribe."

Yuan anxiously said: "I want to go too, I want to go too!"

Qian patted Yuan on the head lightly, and cursed with a smile: "You bastard, when did Father never let you go?" If Qian didn't love Yuan enough, Yuan would not have followed the tribe to Tianheyuan, and met Rin is looking for rice.

Shen Huaijin touched Yuan's head, and her tone was always gentle when coaxing the child, "You are welcome, and I will give you candy when the time comes."

Li gently hugged Shen Huaijin's waist, and reminded in a low voice: "It's getting late, we should set off."

Shen Huaijin looked behind them, only tall and silent trees and calm bushes, he was a little disappointed, but he didn't show it.

Shen Huaijin clenched the wooden stick tightly and said goodbye to Gan Qian. Qi Heshu whistled, indicating that they were going to leave immediately.

"Wait...wait a minute!" A voice called from behind.

Like a gust of wind, the thin and small figure skipped over and rushed to Shen Huaijin before barely stopping.

Feng ran until his face turned red, he panted heavily, and looked up at Shen Huaijin, "You...are you leaving?"

Feng swallowed a big mouthful of saliva, moistening his throat that was about to burn. He had thought of many things to say to Shen Huaijin, but he forgot all of them after running all the way. He could only look at Shen Huaijin with his crystal eyes open. .

Shen Huaijin pulled the wind aside.

"Feng, if I say, I want to take you back to the Great River Tribe and raise you to adulthood, are you willing?"

Feng was stunned, he hardly dared to blink, tears flowed down, but was quickly wiped away by him roughly.

"Thank you, Jin, but I want to stay in Dasen Tribe. It's not because I don't like you, but because I need more time to get better before I go to you."

He faced Shen Huaijin and bent down deeply, "Jin, thank you for giving me candy. There are some things I didn't understand before, and maybe I don't understand now, but I remember your kindness and your words."

Shen Huaijin sighed silently, took out a bone knife from the rattan basket behind him, and directed Feng Feng to touch the small characters engraved on it.

"wind."

"This is your name, and it is also the most precious gift left to you by your beast father and Ya father. I recorded it in words and gave it to you together with this bone knife."

"I hope that one day, you will be able to gallop in the land of beastmen like your own name, always happy and free forever."

Shen Huaijin sent Feng back to Qian's side, and the Dahe Tribe was able to embark on the return journey.

The thin young man stood upright against the light, watching Shen Huaijin drift away until he disappeared into the horizon.

With his left hand holding a candy wrapped in leaves, and his right hand holding a bone knife, he was full of blood in his chest, looking forward to the day when he and Shen Huaijin would reunite.

This time, Shen Huaijin not only got twelve bags of salt (including An's two bags), but also harvested two baskets of rice, more than one basket of soybeans, and even two pieces of fluorite.

Li was responsible for carrying two baskets full of rice, while Shen Huaijin carried soybeans and some salt. As for the rest, he had to ask other orcs for help.

The speed of everyone's progress was not too slow. This time Shen Huaijin had more things on his back than when he came here. Li was worried that he would not be able to keep up, and wanted to let the team rest for a while, but Shen Huaijin refused.

"Li, it's nothing." Shen Huaijin shook his head. What he saw and heard these days is enough to prove that the road is never safe, and the longer it is delayed, the more dangerous it is. He does not want to drag the whole team down.

Seeing him like this, he didn't insist anymore.

They drove the whole day's journey almost without stopping, knowing that it was getting late, so they picked an open space with high stones as a shelter, and prepared to spend the night.

Shen Huaijin didn't have much seasoning on hand, so he had to use the coarse salt he bought for barbecue. Qi also joked that he was used to Shen Huaijin's fine salt, so he really couldn't eat the coarse salt he just bought.

Coarse salt has an astringent taste, so of course people don't like it, but Shen Huaijin needs to maintain his strength, and it's not his turn to be picky eaters, so he eats as much food as he needs as much as possible.

The place where they slept was full of flying insects, which made it difficult to fall asleep. Shen Huaijin turned over a few times, but couldn't help but tugged at the rather soft long hair on the silver wolf's neck, and whispered, "Are you asleep?"

Li was already a little confused, Langshou lightly rubbed Shen Huaijin's hair, and asked vaguely, "What's wrong?"

Shen Huaijin played with the silver wolf's ears, and suddenly became a little curious. He pressed down the wolf's head, and asked in a low voice with a trace of desire to explore: "Didn't you say that you hoped that I would appear earlier? If so When you meet me, what will you do?"

Hearing this, Silver Wolf opened his eyes, he blinked twice, his eyes regained their clarity, and looked a little unfathomable in the night.

"Of course I will hold you, hug you, bite you, and try my best to stay by your side until you will never leave me. Of course, at the same time, I will also become strong, do things for you, and protect your safety .”

"What about you, what would you do if you met me who was small and weak back then?"

Shen Huaijin thought for a long time before whispering, "I probably told you."

"Don't be afraid, I'm here."

The group lived and slept in the open, and were cautious, but when they passed the Youhou tribe and got closer to the Dahe tribe, they inevitably encountered two beast attacks, so they were forced to change some routes.

Fortunately, the orcs like Qi and others had taken other routes, except that they might arrive at the Great River Tribe two days later than scheduled, nothing else would affect them.

However, after changing the route a few times, everyone felt even more anxious.

The tree has sharp eyes and found a strange thing on the way.

Looking at the black and shiny strange stone, he casually crushed it with his foot, but unexpectedly crushed a small piece, and couldn't help but let out a "huh" in surprise.

Shen Huaijin turned her head and asked curiously, "What's wrong?"

Shu scratched his head, picked up the big half of the strange black stone, and handed it to Shen Huaijin, "This stone is so brittle, it shatters when I step on it."

Shen Huaijin took it over and looked it over, and saw that this strange "stone" had a black and shiny appearance, and the broken section still had a sense of layering. Shen Huaijin and Shu's hands were also stained black.

Shen Huaijin still didn't understand such an obvious feature, he said happily: "This is not a stone, this is coal!"

Hearing this, everyone stopped and stepped forward curiously.

Li twisted it a little with his hands and rubbed his fingertips, "Is this another good thing you know?"

Shen Huaijin's tired face was filled with joy, and there was a trace of joy on his face, and he explained: "This is formed by the complex changes of the remains of plants a long time ago. It is a kind of fuel similar to charcoal, but You can reach higher temperatures and it doesn't use as much wood as charcoal."

Shen Huaijin poked the stick in his hand towards the grass beside him, and explained as he walked, "Coal will never appear in one piece or two alone. Let's look around and we should be able to find coal mines."

By observing the amount of sporadic coal on the ground, they circled for hundreds of meters, and they actually found an open area covering an area of ​​about several square kilometers. As far as the eye could see, there was no grass, and black coal lumps were scattered on it.

"It's quite a lot." Li said with emotion, "It's enough for the entire tribe to use for a long time."

Shen Huaijin picked up a few pieces of coal nearby and compared them.

Regardless of how easily the coal was crushed in Li's hands just now, in Shen Huaijin's view, the hardness is already considered good, and the texture is tight. It should be a type with a relatively high degree of carbonization and good quality.

"Don't look at the sporadic ones on the ground, there must be more below the ground, but mining is not a simple matter, and we don't have such a big demand for the time being, so these exposed on the surface are enough for us gone."

Shen Huaijin lit a piece of coal.

After observation, the black smoke generated by the combustion is still relatively small, so he nodded in satisfaction.

However, the quality of coal does not mean that they can easily use it.

Shen Huaijin ordered the fire to be extinguished, and asked, "How far is it from the tribe?"

"It shouldn't be far away." Li's senses are very keen, and he can already feel the aura of the tribe, which means the distance is not too far away.

Qi agreed with him, and the experienced orc in the market added: "As long as you travel fast, it only takes from morning to night to get from here to the tribe."

Shen Huaijin rolled her eyes, and asked again: "There should be no other tribes nearby, right?"

Qi shook his head and said, "Our Dahe tribe is the closest tribe to this land, and other tribes will have to travel at least three days to get here."

Li affirmed: "It seems that it will be easy for us to pick up coal in the future."

Shen Huaijin slightly hooked her lips, "Alright, anyway, we can't bring any more things with us now, why don't we come out to dig coal next time."

Everyone hit it off.

The author has something to say: At the beginning, I chose to let Xiao Shen directly bring Feng back to the Dahe Tribe to raise him, but in the end I changed this plot and related plots afterwards.

Feng is a cub that cannot be kept in captivity. He is more suitable for growing wildly on this continent.Give him some time, when he goes online later, he will be a cool guy~
