The Rise of Primitive Tribes Farming

Chapter 375 Hound
"Boom, boom, boom..."

On the ice, the fishing team is digging hard into the thick ice layer, and after digging out the ice holes, they can lower their nets to catch fish.

Chen Bei stood beside Lie, and with his strength, he easily cut out an ice eye.

"Crash..."

Once the fishing net enters the water, it won't take long before the big fish will come around, and when the time comes to draw the net, you can catch a lot of fish.

Winter catching is not difficult, but it is not easy. For ordinary soldiers, it is a very hard job.

"Lie, do you feel that the number of fish caught in winter has decreased in the past two years?"

Because he had just seen the large mammals in the mountains starved to death and frozen to death, Chenbei suddenly thought that the rivers in the southern desert have also started to freeze in the past two years, so will the fish also be frozen to death?
You know, in the past, the large rivers in the Southern Wilderness would not freeze. In the beginning, even the creeks would not freeze completely.

But in the past two years, with the advent of the glacial period, the winter became cold and long, and the creek was basically frozen, and only a small amount of liquid water remained near the silt.

The river surface of the Lobster River will also be completely frozen, and the ice layer is more than a foot thick.

Although this provides conditions for winter fishing, the survival of fish will definitely be affected.

Lie lowered his net and said, "It seems that the number of fish has decreased. In the first year of winter fishing, there seemed to be too many fish to catch, but this year there are obviously fewer big fish."

Chen Bei frowned slightly, sighed, and said: "The prey in the mountains has also decreased a lot. If this continues, I'm afraid we can only rely on breeding in the future."

For the ponds of the Mang tribe, every year before winter comes, a wooden frame is built on it, and then the whole area is covered with hay, branches and other things. Otherwise, the water in the pond will freeze completely and the fish will not be able to survive.

With this method, the Mang tribe's ponds can continue to raise fish every year. Otherwise, all the big fish will die, and there will be no fry in the next year, so they can only rely on fishing in the river.

The advent of the ice age is a big challenge for all living things.

If you can survive it, you can continue to survive, if you can't survive it, you will die.

"The days are getting more and more difficult. In the future, raise more fish and use the moat."

The moat of the Mang tribe is very long and dug deep enough for fish farming.

In fact, there are quite a few fish in the moat now, swimming in by themselves.

"In addition, from next year, the fish to be spawned will be sorted into special ponds to cultivate high-quality fry."

Chen Bei looked at the wide river, and said: "We have been fishing in the Lobster River for so many years, we can no longer just fish and let them go. After breeding seedlings every year, we will put some of them into the river."

Lie paused when he released the net, and said, "Put the fish fry in the river, wouldn't that benefit the tribes downstream?"

The soldiers next to them also nodded one after another. In their opinion, it is okay to put fish in the pond, and it is also okay to put fish in the moat, as long as a few large fences are built, but putting fish in the lobster river is fine. Isn't it for nothing?
The lobster river is so big, the fish in it will not live in one place, they may go upstream or downstream, and they can go anywhere.

Chen Bei rolled his eyes and said, "In the entire Southern Wilderness, besides our Mang tribe, there is also a fish tribe living by the sea. Which tribe can fish on a large scale? It swims around, and doesn't it swim into our pot?" go?"

"This... seems to be right!"

Lie finally smiled again, the other fighters also figured it out, and everyone continued to fish happily.

After Chen Bei helped pull a few nets of fish, he returned to the tribe, because he heard the sound of the hunting team coming back.

Every time the hunting team came back, there would be a lot of commotion in the tribe, especially when the prey was plentiful, everyone would shout and shout excitedly.

Compared with planting and breeding, which require a lot of time and effort, hunting is more exciting in a short time and quick return.

"Wow... woof woof..."

At the gate of the city, a hunting team came back in a mighty way. They carried or carried a lot of prey, and this time the harvest can be described as rich.

The most eye-catching ones are more than 20 ferocious wolves, or dogs, with dried animal blood on the corners of their mouths.

They have been domesticated for several years, and the 20 or so wolves that have been taken to hunt are already the third generation. Their barking has also changed from wolf howling to occasional barking.

They are still fierce, but in a sense, they have become domestic dogs.

At Chen Bei's suggestion, the hunting team tried to take them to hunt.

The first-generation wolves are the fiercest and have the strongest hunting ability, but they are not very obedient and difficult to control.

The second-generation wolves are still fierce, and their hunting ability is also very good, and because they grew up in a tribe, they are a little more obedient, but they are still out of control when hunting.

The third generation can no longer be called wolves. They should be called hounds. They are slightly less ferocious than the previous two generations, and their hunting ability is slightly weaker, but they are more obedient and less often out of control.

The most important thing is that their communication method is mainly based on the barking sound of "woof woof", supplemented by howling wolves.

This is an extremely important transformation, which means that they have truly integrated into the human living environment.

It is worth mentioning that the way of barking is not unique to dogs. Wild wolves can bark in many ways, and the loudest bark is one of them.

In other words, it doesn't call like this after being domesticated, but it already calls like this.

In the wild, wolves rarely use this kind of bark. After being domesticated as hounds, they choose the appropriate bark according to the environment, that is, the "bark bark" bark.

……

After Chenbei walked over, he found that the hunting team had caught some half-sized mammals, such as wild boars, etc. They were very thin, you can say very thin, because of the long winter, they could not find enough food in the mountains and forests to survive. It relies on the fat accumulated before winter.

"Wang Wang Wang..."

After Chen Bei approached, several of the hounds excitedly ran to Chen Bei's side and circled around him, obviously familiar with him.

Chen Bei touched their heads one by one, and the hounds became even more excited. If they hadn't learned how to wag their tails, they might have been wagging their tails very fast at this time.

"Go back, your food is indispensable."

Those hounds were very smart and could understand some simple words. After Chen Bei finished speaking, they circled Chen Bei twice, and then ran to the tribe.

Chen Bei walked to Yun's side and said, "The harvest is good."

"The harvest is not bad, but these prey are too thin, and there is no meat on them."

Yun was a little distressed. Hunting in winter will encounter such a situation. It is not bad for the prey to survive the cold winter, and they are all skinny.

Chen Beidao: "It's okay, all the live ones will be sent to the breeding area, and they will be eaten after they are fattened up."

"we can only do this."

Yun nodded helplessly.

Chen Bei saw the prey, and then praised the members of the hunting team, making them very happy.

Later, he took the live but very thin prey to the breeding area and found the old deer.

"Old deer, these prey have just been caught. They are too thin and don't have much meat on them. Find a place to raise them and eat them after fattening them up."

"Yes, leader, leave it to me." Lao Lu hurriedly agreed.

Chen Bei said again: "Besides, starting next year, I will have people capture more types of cubs and bring them back. You should take care and choose suitable cubs for domestication. In the future, the Mang tribe's meat will depend on you."

The old deer said excitedly: "Don't worry, leader, I will work hard to tame it so that all the people in the tribe can eat more meat."

Chen Bei nodded in satisfaction, and said: "Thanks for your hard work, as long as you take care of it well, the rewards that should be given to you will not be less."

The old deer promised again that he couldn't do anything else, but when it comes to breeding, the old deer is indeed very talented, and he has successfully domesticated too many animals in his hands.

　Thanks to the elder "Half Step 1075" for the 5000 book coins rewarded.
