Prehistoric Survival Records

Baskets of yellow mud were dug out, and with the help of brick molds, rows of bricks were quickly lined up on the open space by the river. Lige checked carefully and found that the gravel, grass roots, etc. in the mud bricks had been cleaned up very clean. , nodded in satisfaction, although he knew that his own orcs were familiar with these things, but it would be more reassuring to check them in person.

In the evening, Chacha, who went out to inspect, came back and brought back two pieces of news. The good news is that there is a bamboo forest a few kilometers away from here. In the future, they will not worry about bamboo products and bamboo shoots. Although the forest here is quite big, the vegetation is not rich enough, unlike the tropical rainforest in their hometown, wild vegetables grow everywhere, and you can just dig them when you want to eat them.

In fact, Rig had already considered the issue of wild vegetables before the report. The vegetation in the savannah area is definitely not as dense as that in the rainforest. If you want to eat vegetables frequently, it is definitely unrealistic to collect them in the wild.

However, this cannot be said to be a purely bad thing. In a place with superior species and rich vegetation, there is too much to eat. The more you open your mouth, the slower the increase in productivity. The people on the land loved by nature can create a better tomorrow with their own hands through their own hard work. This is something that can be seen in history.

Moreover, with the food intake of these orcs, they didn't know enough about vegetation before, and they knew too few edible wild vegetables, which gave them a chance to sprout and grow. Now everyone knows what can be eaten and what is delicious, and there is no speed in collecting them. Soon, the growth rate of wild vegetables will not be able to keep up with the eating speed of the orcs.The reason is very simple. There are countless wild vegetables that grow and germinate naturally on a piece of land.

Considering this situation, Rieger inspected the soil near the wilderness tribe within a few days of his arrival, and the results were quite satisfactory. Although the humus layer was not particularly thick, the soil was moderately acidic and alkaline. Good soil is neither hard nor sticky. Except for some plants that require special conditions, it can basically meet the growth conditions of most commonly used vegetables. The only fly in the ointment is that the land may not be fertile enough.

However, for a piece of land, lack of fertility may be the easiest solution of all the troubles. Rig is a little fortunate, but if it is saline-alkali land or sandy soil, he will have more headaches.

Lige stretched several lengths of grass rope, measured the area on the weed-covered flat ground, and then used a sharpened wooden root to draw a baseline along the line, measuring several acres of land.

And asked Billy to build a batch of wooden farm tools according to the drawings he drew. Thankfully, there are many huge shale rocks scattered on the grassland, which can be knocked out to make relatively sharp chipped stones. Lige swung it on the ground a few times. Although the feel is not as good as iron, it is much easier than digging the ground with claws or wooden sticks. Anyway, The orcs all have stupid strength, and it is not a waste to spend it on farm work.

Rieg first distributed a farm tool to each of the orcs, and asked them to cultivate an isolation belt along the outermost edge of the field. This was to prepare for the next burning, and deal with the land covered with weeds and various shrubs and vines. In wasteland, the easiest way is to set fire to it, which not only saves time, but also mixes the ash from the fire into the mud to increase fertility, which is a must-have recipe for home travel.

It’s just to prevent fire on the grassland. If you don’t take measures to isolate the fire, if you are not careful, the wind will help the fire and burn half of the grassland. So Lige watched the orcs work and tried to dig the isolation zone as wide as possible. Deep, after all, the soil can be backfilled after digging and burning, so there is no place to cry for Huofeng Liaoyuan.

After the isolation zone was dug, Lige told the orcs to back off and threw a few torches that had been prepared a long time ago. The grassland was windy and dry, and the torches quickly ignited the tall grass near the place where they fell. The shrubs were ignited, and the shrubs ignited the dwarf trees, and they burned in all directions, and finally, even the moss growing on the ground turned brown under the agitation of the wind, and joined Zhu Rong's army.

The orcs were a little afraid of such a big fire. After all, the fire-fearing genes were still functioning instinctively in their undeveloped bodies. Many orcs rushed out of the distance with a clatter, patting their chests with numb claws.

Charlie instantly picked up Rieger and threw it on his back, and ran half a mile in one breath, his hair collapsed in fright.

Rigg raised his dumb hair with his hands in a funny way, stroked Charlie's neck, comforted him, and explained to him the function of the isolation zone, and said that as long as he didn't cross the isolation zone, the fire would not spread.

Charlie probably understood, but he still didn't want Rieger to get close to the burning place. In order to prove the effect of the isolation belt to Charlie, Rieger jumped off his back, held Charlie's wings, and walked him step by step towards the burning place. Sideband, stop at a distance where the burning process can be clearly seen and the temperature is not too hot, and point it out to Charlie.

Sure enough, all the fires were only burning obediently in the middle of the four trenches, and never crossed a step. Charlie finally believed it, with a look of admiration in his eyes, and he looked at Rieg with sparkling eyes—his second treasure, really Greatest cub ever.

Under the reflection of the fire, all the orcs stared brightly at Rieger's seemingly unfathomable figure, with stars dancing in his eyes. Their wise men are really the most powerful cubs.

It took an afternoon and a whole night to work on the [-] acres of barren land with natural cooling. The next day, as soon as the sun was dawn, Rigg urged them to get up to work. They talk about three nines in winter and three volts in summer?The truth is, spring rain is as expensive as oil, how can spring plowing sleep, their timing is already late, and now is the time to race against time.

The area of ​​the fifty-acre experimental field is not large for orcs. After one night, the field has cooled naturally, and the surface is covered with a thick layer of straw ash. Yes, this is a precious organic fertilizer, rich in potassium, phosphorus, calcium, magnesium and other trace elements. It has obvious fertilizer effects and must not be wasted.

The next step is to turn the land. Because of the orc tribe that Lige was born in, the civilization has not yet developed to the step of planting and domestication. The orcs don’t even understand what planting is or why they need to plant, let alone understand the process of turning the ground. meaning.

So Teacher Lige put his little hands behind his back, and while urging the orcs to work, he told them the meaning of plowing the land.

Starting from the natural germination of seeds in nature, to artificial domestication and breeding, the topic turned to cultivated land, and then talked about the three elements of plant growth, water, air and light. When it comes to fertility that promotes plant growth, I will give them a brief example Chestnuts, for example, where people often pee, the plants will grow more luxuriantly.

The orcs were so engrossed in natural science that they had two eyes on mosquito coils. They didn't understand, but they understood one thing. As long as they follow Rigg's words, delicious wild vegetables and berries will grow on this land. Yes, in the future, the females don't need to dig around the grass to find their own food, they just need to come to this land to collect. The orcs don't understand what efficiency is, but they can still understand this benefit. When they grow flakes of sweet berries, mushrooms and wild greens, they're going to be full of energy.

Rig didn't correct their thoughts, nor told them that mushrooms can't be planted in the field or that the first crop he doesn't plan to plant berries right away, let them think for themselves, longing is the first crop One productivity.

The first batch of agricultural tools that were hastily built were not many, and they could not be handed over. The orcs who got the farm tools plowed the land under the guidance of Lige, and the orcs who did not get the farm tools were not idle, and followed behind to dig out the land. It is also necessary to pick out the stones and tree roots and so on, and smash the large pieces of soil with sticks and stones. Although the land here is not compacted, the soil that has never been plowed It will definitely not be as loose as the ripe field, and large pieces of soil are unavoidable.

After the orcs in front of the land have finished digging a circle of land, the people behind them have completed the aftermath work properly, and then the two sides hand over the farm tools, and the orcs who followed the small workers just now will turn the soil and mix it again. It is required to be more detailed, and the soil layer must be dug deeper.

Repeatedly like this, Lige grabbed a handful of soil in his hands and inspected it. When it was loosened, the soil began to scatter down one after another. The soil in the [-]-acre field had become fine and loose.

The orcs' rosy cheeks and brows glistening with sweat after working, reflected the large plowed fields behind them, and Rieg felt the glory and beauty of the working people from the bottom of his heart.

During the intermission, the boys brought several large jars of sweet honey water to the field. This was ordered by Lige when he got up early. Here is a digression. I followed Lige and the others out of the forest. The worm king and his little follower conquered a native bee colony on the grassland and became their boss. They lived a wonderful life where the little brothers offered royal jelly and came to the orcs for teeth-making sacrifices from time to time. As a result, the honey here in Lige can be taken and used at any time, which makes the orcs very happy.

We must know that before human beings planted sugar cane and sugar beets on a large scale, it was very difficult to obtain pure sweetness. When productivity was backward, sugar was an out-and-out luxury no matter in ancient or modern times. You must know that the Anglo-Saxons Even in the interstellar era, the desserts made by the descendants are so sweet that they are throat-spitting, which is completely a bad habit left by the ancestors.

Prehistoric bee swarms are not easy to mess with. Orcs often have to pay a high price to obtain some honey. Like Lige and his tribe, honey is used as a condiment. They drink some honey water when they are tired, and eat a piece of honey barbecue when they are hungry. You can also directly put a spoonful of honey in your mouth. In other tribes, it is simply unimaginable. The greedy aristocrat lives.

Sitting on the edge of the field and blowing the spring breeze, there is honey water that has been cool all morning, and it is refreshing to drink. One bowl is not enough, and there are a few big jars over there. You can scoop up another big bowl at any time, unlimited , drink until enough.

Because the food level has risen sharply recently, all the chubby little boys are chasing each other in the soft field, and the laughter is endless.

This scene made the orcs exude comfort from the bottom of their hearts. They wished that the days like this would be longer, longer, and never have an end.

If Lige could hear their voices, he would definitely tell them, rest assured, as city builders, your leisurely (suffering) leisure (tiring) days have just begun.
