Reborn 1990's Dragon Girl Relying on the Fields to Get Rich

Chapter 157 Temple
"What do you usually eat?"

At this moment, Bai Yumo suddenly spoke.She was very curious, in this place where the land could not even be planted, and the water source was so scarce, what did they rely on to survive.

"We are in a desert area here, so it is normal to be short of food and water. We usually eat some drought-tolerant plants, and our meat is wild animals we hunt or beef and mutton at home.

Two years ago, we still received some relief food every month, such as corn bran and potatoes.Later, after the chaos in the main city, we no longer received relief food, and now the whole country is in turmoil.

Fortunately, we belong to nomadic tribes, far away from urban areas, so we don't have to worry about wars affecting us.However, in the past two years, the weather has been bad, and it has hardly rained.The water source in the oasis is also running dry, and everyone is running out of water to drink.

My father and several clan elders have discussed many times. If there is no more rain, our tribe will relocate and find a place where we can live again. "

Larryl suddenly missed the previous days. Although the environment in the desert was difficult, everyone could live safely by relying on relief food and wild animals in the desert.

Now that the relief food is running out, even the water source is about to be cut off. If they really move, they don't know if they will be able to find a new oasis.These two guests from afar are in a good state of mind, and they should not have been hungry during the days in the desert.

Hearing what Lariel said, Bai Yumo looked around.There are many houses made of mud in the oasis, and every family is dilapidated. There has been no rainfall for a long time, and the mud walls have cracked many gaps.

Most of the vegetation near the oasis has dried up and can only be used as firewood now.Almost all the living vegetation has been eaten, and the outer bark of many big trees has been scraped off.

"You just said that you can hunt. Where do you usually hunt your prey?" Seeing that the little girl is very concerned about the survival of the tribe, Qin Fan thought that if there is a place where hunting is possible, it would be a good idea to hunt a few prey and give them to the tribe. It can be regarded as repaying their hospitality.After all, if they gave money tomorrow morning, they might not really want it. Now money is almost like waste paper to them.

"Brother Qin, we haven't seen any wild animals for a long time. Now the water source in the oasis is almost cut off, and no small animals will come in to find water to drink."

Hearing Qin Fan's question, Larry was a little frustrated.When there is water in the oasis, animals will often come to drink water. If they are lucky, they can catch some small animals to satisfy their hunger.Now you can't even see the shadow of a spider, let alone eat meat.

Seeing Larry's embarrassed look, Bai Yumo and the others stopped asking.Soon Lariel took the two of them to a building in the center of the tribe, which looked a bit like a temple.

"Brother Qin, this is the temple in our tribe, and it is also the best building. The temple is usually used for sacrificial activities, and there is only one old man guarding it.

There is only one vacant room for people to live in. Tonight, you two will be wronged to rest in the same room. I will help you carry some hay later. "

There is only one vacant room, and there is no bed, so they can only spread hay on the ground for one night.If you don't use hay, the temperature will drop in the middle of the night, and the temperature on the ground will be very low, and you will definitely get sick the next day.

"Thank you, I'll go with you to hold hay later." Qin Fan nodded, and he had no objection to Larry's arrangement.Even though they had rollaway beds, they still had to use hay for cover.

"Okay, then I'll take you in to see the room where you rest tonight." Lariel led the two into the temple.

"Grandpa Curry, are you there?"

"I'm here, Larry~"

Curry was cleaning the stone statue, when he heard someone calling him outside, he could only move out step by step from behind the stone statue with difficulty.

"Grandpa Curry, are you cleaning the stone statue again?"

Larry heard the voice coming from behind the stone statue, and guessed that Grandpa Curry was cleaning the stone statue again. Grandpa Curry was the guardian of the temple, and he cleaned the stone statue almost every day. According to his father, Grandpa Curry had guarded the stone statue for 40 days. for many years.

"Yeah. Hehe, Larryl, who are these two?"

Curry looked at the two strange faces in front of him, a little curious. These two people didn't look like people from their country, they should be people from other countries.

"Grandpa Curry, these two are explorers who came to explore the desert. They walked in the desert for two days before they came to us. They are going to stay with us for one night today, and they will leave early tomorrow morning, so father Let me bring them here."

"Oh, so it is. Two guests from afar, please sit down."

Hearing the word explorer, Curry understood.They are deep in the desert, and occasionally meet experts who come to explore the desert to spend the night in the tribe, but these two explorers look very young.

"Thank you, Grandpa Curry, for bothering me."

Bai Yumo and the two sat down on the cushions. Grandpa Curry should be in his 70s or [-]s. Although he looks a little malnourished, his eyes give people a sense of energy.

"You are welcome, two children, you are our guests when you come to us."

Curry smiled kindly, signaling that they don't have to take it to heart.

"Grandpa Curry, where's your bucket? I'll queue up to get you a bucket of water, thank you for entertaining Brother Qin."

Instead of sitting down, Larry went to the utility room and found the bucket that Grandpa Curry used to carry water.All the people who fell were queuing up to get water. If they didn't go, they wouldn't be able to get water.

"Thank you, Larry~"

Seeing Larry rushing out with the bucket in hand, he was a little moved.His legs and feet have become more and more inconvenient over the years, and it is Larry who fetches water for him or moves things.

"Two guests, I'm really sorry. There is no food at home to entertain you. When Larry comes back later, the two of you can put some water in the water bag."

There is no food at home, and now the tribe cooks and eats collectively. There is only one meal a day, and they can't eat enough. It can only be said that they are hanging their lives.It's really a shame that I can't come up with anything to entertain guests.

"Grandpa Curry, don't worry about us, we still have water in our water bladders. How long has it been since it rained here? We just came in and saw that the river bed was dry and cracked."

Bai Yumo shook his head, they have something to eat, so there is no need to worry about them.

"It hasn't rained for almost half a year, and the temperature this year is even higher than in previous years. Drought-tolerant plants have no harvest in this hot and dry weather."

This year's situation is even worse than last year's. According to the patriarch, the river has stopped flowing and the riverbed is almost bottoming out.If there is no water, the whole tribe will not know what to do.
