A leisurely life in ancient times

Chapter 174 Worry
"Uncle Feng, arrange for people to go back to the tribe and call some people to help." Jiang Qing frowned, looking at the hills of yams piled up on the ground.

Because of Jiang Qing's words, Feng and the others were very careful when digging, and did not hurt the roots of the yam at all.Seeing the round yam, Jiang Qing narrowed her eyes with a smile.

This mountain is very big, it is black soil, and the things grown from such fertile soil are naturally excellent!

Look at the roots of these yams, delicious and juicy, this is a lot of rations.

Feng raised his eyes, glanced at the sky, nodded and said, "Gain, take some yams home, call Edie and the others, and try to dig out all the yams before dark."

Gain, the man who opened the animal hide before Mota boldly, is very strong, very energetic, and he is a good man!
"Okay." Gain, a tall man, nodded and poured the yams from the vines into the vines next to him, carefully filled the vines full of yams, and did not forget to carry four or five yams more than one meter long Long yams.

Speeding like lightning, he disappeared from everyone's eyes in the blink of an eye.

As the sky was getting darker, Lina and the others did not continue to collect herbs, but carefully put the herbs aside.The tribe had been hoarding medicinal herbs before, and with the accelerated picking during this period, it was more or less enough!

Helping Jiang Qing, she removed the soil from the roots of the yams and piled them neatly together.In the sky, the rain gradually became heavier, and the movements became slower.

Jiang Qing wiped off the rainwater from her face, and said, "In this way, it might rain heavily tonight!"

Cao frowned, and said anxiously: "Yes! It's troublesome when it rains heavily... I don't know how the patriarch and the others are doing?"

Two more days of delay, if the underground river channel cannot be passed, the situation will become even more dangerous.In previous years, it started to rain and cool after entering the dry season. This year, it has not yet entered the dry season, and the sky has already become cooler and it has started to rain!

The abnormal weather made everyone feel uneasy.

"Don't worry, since the underground river channel has been formed, it will be difficult to divert it if there is no natural disaster." Jiang Qing said calmly. She asked Granny Qian carefully. There has not been a large-scale earthquake or volcano in the Death Forest in the past hundred years. outbreak situation.

Since there were no large-scale natural disasters, the underground river channel that was passed a hundred years ago would naturally not be easily diverted.The only thing to worry about is whether there is subsidence or water accumulation.

She had to hurry up, she was worried that the underground river channel would not be diverted, but it would accumulate water.Although it is a dry riverbed, if it rains continuously, there may be water accumulation.

Then it will be troublesome for them to walk!
While talking, Gain quickly rushed over from the tribe with a dozen people, "Uncle Feng, the people who went hunting haven't come back yet..."

"It's okay, everyone, hurry up, the rain is going to get heavier and heavier!" Uncle Feng frowned, looked at Jiang Qing and said, "Jiang Qing, take Lina and the others back to the tribe first, and leave it to us to deal with it!"

Women's bodies are not as good as men's, and they tend to get hot after being exposed to rain. Feng worried that Jiang Qing and the others would get sick due to fever, so he decided to let them go back to the tribe first.

Digging yams is very simple, you don't need to work hard, just be careful.

Jiang Qing looked at the sky and asked Lina and the others to pack the herbs in the vines without forcing them. Each of them carried two yams and followed Gain and his party back to the tribe.

As soon as they returned to the tribe, Qing and the others greeted them from a distance, took what Jiang Qing was holding forcefully, and forced them to drink two more bowls of medicinal soup prepared by Ya.

After drinking the medicinal soup and changing into clean clothes, Qing asked, "Jiang Qing, what is this yam?"

"This yam can be eaten, and it can also be used as medicine..." Jiang Qing babbled again and said what she knew, and wiped her wet hair again and again, saying: "Aunt Qing, I am afraid that the rain will become heavier and heavier , why don't we hurry up and move the food hoarded in the cellar to the cemetery?"

"Are you worried that the rain will be too heavy and there will be floods?" Qing Qing said seriously.

Jiang Qing nodded and said: "Grandma Qian and the others said that the weather is abnormal this year. I'm worried that the weather will change too fast and we won't have time to clean it up... This underground river channel is a dry riverbed. If it rains more and more, maybe it will When there is a flood, the underground river channel may accumulate water at that time..."

Jiang Qing didn't continue with the rest of the sentence, Qing understood it in her heart.

I knew that Jiang Qing would not jump to conclusions, but this weird weather was indeed disturbing.

"You take a rest, I'll call everyone over." Qing thought for a while, got up and said.

Qing makes a decision before making a decision, and never procrastinates in making a decision. Hearing Jiang Qing's words, Qing was a little apprehensive.He simply decided to call Granny Qian and the others over, and everyone discussed and discussed it. If it really didn't work, they set off early.

"Okay!" Jiang Qing nodded. Qing can't decide this matter alone, so naturally she has to ask everyone to discuss it together.

Not long after, Qing brought dozens of people to Jiang Qing's side.

Chi Jiu huddled in a corner, working hard, ignoring the dozens of people who suddenly appeared.These people are the people who can call the shots of the three tribes. They came in a hurry. Some of them just came back from the outside, and their bodies were still dripping with water.

Without exchanging pleasantries, Lang Bo shook his wet hair and said, "Jiang Qing, do you mean to leave early?"

Jiang Qing nodded and said: "Yes, I am worried that the rain will become heavier, floods will occur on the ground, and water will accumulate in the underground river passage. It was very troublesome to walk at that time. The food we hoard now is enough to save us through this migration. When we go to Taoyuan, we can collect food again..."

"If the climate of Taoyuan is the same as the forest of death, it will be difficult for our food to survive the long dry season..." Dan Li worried.

"Lang Mo said that the climate in the land of Taoyuan is different from that in the Forest of Death. Maybe it happens to be the rainy season over there. If we delay any longer, I'm worried that the underground river channel will accumulate water, and then we can only walk on the ground..." Jiang Qing paused, then continued, "How dangerous is it to walk in the Forest of Death in the dry season? You all know better than me."

"The first rain in the dry season will last for at least ten days. The flood that Jiang Qing mentioned is indeed possible." Granny Qian said in a low voice with a hoarse voice.

Lang Bo frowned, and said, "One-third of the iron ore has been mined. If we leave now, wouldn't the clan be in vain?"

"If there is no stagnant water in the underground river channel, we can go back to the Forest of Death through the channel at any time." Jiang Qing said calmly, "Iron mines are indeed good, but you have to live alive. The dry season lasts at least three months, what are you in a hurry for?"

"Jiang Qing is right, Qing, let people start packing after dinner, and we will set off tonight," Tian Yun said.The dangerous smell in the wind became more and more obvious, and she vaguely felt that the flood that Jiang Qing mentioned was very likely to happen.

Seeing Tianyun's decisive tone, the others looked at each other, but they didn't speak again.

"Wolf Bo, you are now asking people to move the food into the underground river, so as not to get wet due to the heavy rain..." Since he decided to set off tonight, Qing asked directly and asked people to move the things to the passage first.
