Survival In the World of Beasts

The weather is getting hotter, and as the results of the language learning class are remarkable, the new females have integrated into the group and cultivated feelings with their males. With their help, they built their own tree houses according to their own preferences. However, everyone has reason to believe that these tree houses will soon become new houses.

Bai even took the time to lead the males to build a new conference hall, and everyone finally had another place to sit and meet.

At the same time, the corn kernels are gradually plumping and the harvest is about to begin. Li Shizhao paused his own groping about weaving and pottery. After leading everyone (mainly the females) into a frenzy for a while, the harvest was fairly smooth, even more than when he was in Xuefeng Valley. It is that their planting area has greatly increased, and secondly, they also have a lot of experience.

At least if they have this number of people, even if they only eat corn, the corn is enough to eat for a year. I think the reason why I chose this kind of corn as food is precisely because it is easy to grow, does not require high soil and climate, and has a large yield.

However, considering that the males in the valley eat more meat, the number of livestock they raise now is very limited. They are all takins brought down from the snow peaks for hauling, and some herbivores they caught later. Everything that can't be eaten is raised. The current amount is not enough to supply all the males' meat needs, they still need to hunt around.

However, as the number of people increases, the scope of their raids becomes larger and more frequent, and one day there will be not enough prey in the surrounding area.

Li Shizhao roughly estimated this time and scope. The scale of livestock breeding in the valley must be expanded as soon as possible. If there is a surplus of corn, they can even use corn to raise animals without being limited by the current forage planting area.

So after the corn was harvested, Li Shizhao organized the plowing, filling, and planting. These processes are already done by everyone. It doesn't matter if the new females don't understand it for a while, just this opportunity to let them get familiar with it.

After the second round of planting, the females can finally breathe a sigh of relief and take a break. Recently, it has been very hard. From harvest to planting, they have not stopped at all. Everyone lost a lot of weight and got a lot of tan.

The males have gradually moved closer to the waterfall. According to Bai's idea, they have cleared a safe passage leading to the river, while ensuring that there are no large predators near the large water source.

Because they need to increase the range of patrol and hunting at this time than before, it is even more rare for them to spare their hands to help the females.

The females are quite understandable. This is also to make the surroundings of Howling Valley safer. Although they work hard in the valley, the males are more dangerous outside.

Bai Ting feels sorry for Li Shizhao, which is no different from any male in the valley: "Can I take a break after this time? See if you haven't even had time to eat recently."

Li Shizhao didn't care very much, and smiled slightly: "It's nothing, it's a hard work now, and I can get a little bit more before autumn."

Bai touched his cheek and became thin: "Didn't I have collected a lot before, it's enough. It will be enough for my leader to hunt more prey in the fall. Why bother to work so hard?"

Li Zhizhen held his hand: "It's nothing. The extra food can be stored in time. I don't know if there are any prey around in winter. If there is not in winter, a variety of food can feed a lot of livestock."

Bai shook his fingers together, and did not speak for a long while.

Li Zhizhen raised his head and looked at him.

However, Bai felt a little guilty. If he hadn't insisted on going out of the valley and tossing these things, Ah Zhao would not have worked so hard.

Li Shizhen saw his thoughts and smiled: "Everything is fine now, and things here are gradually unfolding as planned. A Yun found good soil next to him. In a few days, I will lead everyone to burn pottery. At that time, we can still build a new house to make molds and ironware. The hard work is only temporary."

Bai smiled: "Don't be too tired yourself, let others take care of you if you have anything." Bai didn't worry about this any more, and changed the subject casually: "That person named Bu, has changed his human form? It changed when I went out, I think he is adapting well now."

Li Shizhao nodded: "It's similar to your situation at the time. It was only like this when you were an adult. First, the high fever did not go away, and then it gradually changed. It was also very dangerous. Fortunately, everything in the valley is complete, unlike what we were back then... …"

Bai hugged him speechlessly, and the encounter by the river was indeed one of the hardest times they had ever experienced. In comparison, the current hardship was nothing.

Li Shizhao said in a low voice, "I don't know what the key to this change is. I'm afraid that there are not only you, but others like this. If you know this, you can help similar people in the future."

Bai frowned: "I don't know. Generally, beasts are born in animal form, and they can gradually become human form when they grow up. This should also be the case with the young cubs of the Bu family. Me, I was born in human form when I was a child. I suddenly became a beast form somehow, and it took a long time to be able to return to a human form. You know the rest."

Li Shizhen leaned on his shoulder: "In this way, your situation is different from his. Is there anyone who is in the same situation as you or cloth?"

Bai stroked Li Shizhao's back lightly: "I'm like... there shouldn't be many. It's cloth like that. I've encountered a lot in the south."

Li Shizhao thought for a long time, and didn't have a clue, so he put it down for a while. He wanted to say something, but gradually became tired of thinking, closed his eyes, and fell asleep.

Bai heard the long breath in his ear, smiled slightly, put the female in her arms on the bed, and covered him with animal skins.

When the pottery was being burned on this day, Li Zhixun asked the females to participate. This time, from the selection of high-quality clay to the construction of the kiln, they all went through thorough discussions and experiments. Li Zhixun and Ayun were very good at it. confidence.

The area of ​​this cellar is not large, only one meter deep on the slope, the diameter is only about one meter, the top is sealed, and fuel can be added from the side.

In order to increase efficiency, Li Shizhao also inserted stone slabs on the wall of the cellar, put the prepared ceramic embryos on it, and made dozens of pottery in one time. The raw materials used in these ceramic embryos were all discovered by Ayun on the bank of the river in Taniguchi, and now the males are also required to mine the corresponding stones from there to bring them back to the valley.

In order to ensure the stability of the temperature, the structure of the entire cellar is relatively closed.

On the other hand, Li Shizhao made improvements in Ayun's description, no longer using wood as fuel, instead of using charcoal, he also opened a charcoal-burning cellar next to the pottery cellar.

These pottery embryos made of clay were also made by the females playing around. In order to distinguish between them, Li Zhixun also asked them to make shallow lettering under their respective pottery. The things the females make are simple and practical, nothing more than bowls, spoons, cups and the like. Li Shizhen doesn't pay attention to appearance, but everyone has worked so hard for so long. This pottery can be regarded as a reward.

After everything is ready, sufficient charcoal fire is prepared in the cellar for burning.

Considering that the heating time is relatively long, Li Shizhao divided the females into three shifts to keep the temperature for a day and night without interruption, and then stop the heating to let the cellar automatically cool down.

When the cellar was opened, everyone was looking forward to it, and even many idle males came to watch. After all, the females in their own homes were talking about this in the past two days, and it was difficult for them to know.

But the final products surprised Li Shizhao himself. This seems to be no longer a pottery. The crystal sheen on the surface already has the shadow of porcelain. Although the quality of these things is not so stable, probably because the temperature is not so uniform, there are occasional cracks, but the cyan luster of the finished product has exceeded the Beicheng utensils Li Shizhen saw.

Ayun was also a little stunned. He didn't expect that the final product made by Li Shizhen would be so beautiful and even better than the one he saw in Bay City. He knew that Li Shizhen was a different female, but he did not expect him to be so powerful. Not only did he make things based on his own words, but he also improved what he said. For a while, everyone, including A Yun, watched Li Zhizhu's eyes were a little surprised.

However, what Li Shizhao thought in his mind is that this is probably the effect of temperature. If you want to burn the bricks next time, you can't keep it closed and high temperature. As for molds, this temperature is good and can make the surface smoother. Fewer holes.

But in short, Li Shizhen's original intention was achieved. The females who received their respective utensils all smiled, and the fatigue for a period of time seemed to disappear. The pursuit and enthusiasm of the females for these beautiful and exquisite things is far higher than that of the males. There are already females who are asking Li Shixun when he will burn the cellar next time.

However, the whistle from afar temporarily interrupted the heated discussion and exchanges.

Li Zhizong was a little surprised. Who came to Howling Valley with this voice?

When he arrived at Taniguchi, he actually saw a few males who sent Yang Apa back to Howling Valley from a distance. Their team was very large, not only a few of them, but also a lot of people. Li Zhitong recognized Asha from a distance. With the child, Yu and Ashi are also in the team!

Li Shizhen frowned worriedly, what happened on Xuefeng...? How could the females and cubs be transferred to Howling Valley first?

Li Zhitong and Bai discussed the possibility of everyone moving to Howling Valley. After all, Xuefeng is too isolated from the world and not conducive to development, but it can never be so fast. Their development in Howling Valley has just begun. .

Bai obviously heard the whistle and escorted them back together.

Taniguchi was not a place to talk, and Li Shizhao only smiled and greeted people he knew well, and led them to rest in the hall.

When Bai walked with him side by side, he had already carefully explained the reasons for the matter: "There are changes on the mountain, and Apa and the others are not at ease. Let Asha and the others come down with all the cubs and children."

Li Shichun was very worried. What kind of changes would make the Aps, who have little confidence in Howling Valley, prefer to let the cubs move here first?

Bai was also a little worried: "They said that white smoke suddenly began to rise from the north of the valley, and the ground could occasionally be shaken. However, the Apaams refused to leave the Holy Fir and only let the cubs come down first."

Li Shizhao was shocked for a while. He didn't even have time to conceal it. He grabbed Bai's hand and asked loudly, "What did you say? White smoke?! Vibration?!" Then, without waiting for Bai's answer, he said categorically, "Everyone left there immediately," Must be fast!"
