The Rise of Primitive Tribes Farming

Chapter 480 The Ice Cellar
"Whoosh..."

With the cold wind howling outside the window, Chen Bei sat in his room, wearing single clothes, under the light of an oil lamp, holding a brush with a beast, and completed a part of the map of Nanhuang again.

He has been doing this for several years.

The situation in the Southern Wilderness is constantly changing, and the map will naturally change accordingly.

On the map, the territories of hostile tribes such as the Ant Tribe and the Eagle Tribe are marked with red pigmented animal hair brushes, making it clear at a glance.

In addition to maps, there are calendars and other things that are also being improved and updated every year.

Qingzhu can't do these things, so Chen Bei can only do it by himself.

After drawing the map, Chen Bei let it dry naturally.

He himself opened the door and walked into the yard.

The wind is strong, but there is a bright moon in the sky, which is shining with cool light.

Everyone else was already wearing thick clothes, but Chen Bei didn't need them. His body was like a stove, even if he stood naked in the snow and ice, he wouldn't feel cold.

On the ground, with the howling of the cold wind, a little whiteness gradually appeared.

Chen Bei walked over and picked up a fallen leaf, only to see that some hoarfrost had condensed on the side of the fallen leaf.

"It's frosty, and it's another year of winter."

Because of the advent of the glacial period, the winter on the entire continent is extremely long, taking up almost half a year.

But also accompanied by various floods, droughts, earthquakes, hail and other natural disasters.

The consequence of such extreme weather is that some animals that cannot adapt to the weather are gradually dying out.

It is also very difficult for human beings to survive in this environment.

Some small tribes, even medium-sized tribes, could not find enough food due to weather changes, and eventually declined and were wiped out.

This year is a little bit better. Except for minor floods and droughts, there have been no particularly serious natural disasters. As a result, the Mang tribe has had a bumper harvest.

I don't know when this kind of weather will really end.

"I hope the ice age will pass soon."

Chen Bei put down the leaf and turned back to the house. At this moment, a layer of silver-white frost had condensed on the ground, reflecting the light under the moonlight.

Not long after the frost, it really snowed.

Mang Tribe No. 11 years of sacrifice also began.

For this sacrifice, the Mang tribe added thousands of totem warriors, and their strength was enhanced.

After the sacrifice, the snow fell more and more, and the snow on the ground became thicker, until the ponds, streams, and rivers were all frozen.

"Bang Bang Bang..."

By the pond, Chen Bei tapped the ice with a bronze shovel, only some white marks appeared on it, but the ice did not break.

This shows that the ice has frozen very thick.

Hui Zong was patrolling with people, and saw Chen Bei was holding a shovel to break the ice, so he came over and asked curiously: "Boss, what are you going to do?"

Chen Bei said: "I want to dig some ice cubes back and put them in the deepest cellar. Store them well. These ice cubes should last until next summer without melting."

Thinking of eating frozen fruits or cold drinks in the hot summer, Chen Bei licked his lips, yearning for it very much.

"Is there such a thing? The ice won't melt if you put it in the cellar?"

Gray Brown is very interested in this, because in common sense, no one can store ice cubes until the next summer.

"Of course, but the cellar needs to be dug very deep, and the amount of ice cubes needs to be large. It's best to fill the entire cellar."

If there are too few ice cubes, it will melt too fast. By the beginning of spring tomorrow, it will probably turn into a puddle of water.

Only a large number of ice cubes, exhaling cold air from each other, can keep from melting and persist for a longer period of time.

"Boss, do you need help?" Hui Brown asked.

Chen Bei waved his hand and said: "No need, you are busy, I can do it myself."

"Ok."

Hui Zong felt a little regretful. He really wanted to go to the cellar where Chenbei stored ice cubes, but he still had the duty of patrolling the tribe, so he could only pin his hopes on the future.

"Boom!"

Chen Bei started to work again. He first used a bronze shovel to shovel around the ice cubes, shoveling out the cracks, and then started from the edge of the pond to take out the first piece of ice.

Because of the engineering team, the edge of the Mang tribe's pond was not mud, but a stone wall. Chen Bei shoveled the ice off the stone wall, picked it up, and put it aside.

He repeated this process, and it didn't take long to get a large pile of ice cubes, and these ice cubes were relatively clean.

After digging the ice cubes, Chen Bei dragged them back and put them into a deep cellar at the back of the yard.

This cellar was dug out by Chenbei's giant pangolins from the Chuanshan tribe.

Ten meters deep underground, and the space is huge.

Regarding the matter of building an ice cellar, Chen Bei had long thought about it.

However, it takes a lot of manpower and material resources to build an ice cellar, just to enjoy the cold feeling in summer. It has to be said that this is a relatively extravagant thing.

Chenbei believes that the tribe is not yet qualified to indulge in pleasure, so there is no large-scale construction of ice cellars.

However, it is still possible to make a small cellar yourself, store a little ice, and give it a try.

Therefore, Chen Bei didn't ask anyone for help, and moved the ice cubes from the pond to the cellar bit by bit.

After he finished moving, the small cellar had become terribly cold.

But Chen Bei didn't care, he was the Holy Body of the Sun, so he wasn't afraid of the cold at all, the temperature which was very low for ordinary people didn't affect Chen Bei.

Chen Bei went out again, this time to cut ice by the creek, cut it into large pieces, and then brought them back to the cellar.

After he filled the cellar, he was satisfied to seal the cellar.

"Hopefully next summer, these ice cubes will still be lying in it instead of turning into water."

Chen Bei prayed for a while, and then he didn't care about the small ice cellar anymore.

……

Flamingos.

Since resigning as the captain of the guard team and joining the flamingo team, Hongye has gradually developed a new hobby, which is feeding flamingos.

Seeing the little flamingo growing little by little under her feeding, Hongye felt very satisfied.

"I may not be fit to fight."

Hongye said to her sister Honghua.

He thawed the huge bucket of fish and shrimp with warm water, and then distributed them to the younger flamingos.

One of the flamingos even rubbed its head against him affectionately.

"I've made up my mind. Anyway, the tribe needs people to tame flamingos. I will stay here to tame flamingos in the future."

Honghua looked at this slightly decadent brother with complicated emotions.

She is a very strong person, Hongye is not, Hongye is obviously more content with the situation.

"Brother, don't you want to be the captain of the guard again?"

Hongye shook her head, and said, "I've checked it out, and the guards in my hands are indeed not as powerful as those in Huizong's hands. Huizong, you've done a good job."

Honghua is inevitably disappointed in her heart, but she can't force this brother to think the same as her.

"Since you have made your choice, stay here and tame the flamingo. The leader said that no matter what you do, as long as you do it well, it will be useful to the tribe."

Honghua turned and left, walking in a little haste.

Hongye looked at her back for a long time before laughing at herself, "It's also a kind of progress not to slow you down, isn't it?"

　I have a cold, and my head is dizzy. These two chapters were written down with force.
