Farming in the Primitive Tribe

Because of the wasp incident, they didn't pick many chestnuts, but they didn't dare to provoke the wasps anymore. As a last resort, they had to change places, and after going around and around, they returned to the tree they had picked before. under the tree.

Maybe because no one wanted them, the ones they hit last time were still under the tree. They first picked them up from the ground, and then beat them down from the tree with wooden sticks.

This time she didn't dare to walk away. Who knew if the lunatic would be hiding somewhere and staring at her. Thinking of this, Shen Xiaoxiao instantly felt goosebumps rising.

Being stared at all day long, no one would be able to cope with this.

Originally, they thought they could pick it up and go back smoothly, but unexpectedly, an accident happened. A familiar "buzzing" sound sounded. Shen Xiaoxiao took a quick look and saw that a swarm of bees were watching above them.

I feel numb. Isn’t it a good time to go out today? Why are there bees everywhere? There weren't any bees last time they came here. In just a few days, there are already swarms of bees waiting for them?

Fortunately, bees are not poisonous, but their stings are painful.

We had to find a way to drive them away. If this continued, they wouldn't be able to pick any more. And seeing as their swarm was so big, there must be a hive, so Shen Xiaoxiao came up with the idea of ​​making honey.

"Run." Shen Xiaoxiao shouted. Although this thing is not poisonous, it can sting people. After shouting, she ran quickly. "Put the things here first, and come back to get them later." She ran as she ran. shouted.

Others reacted and ran away. After all, they didn't want to be stung a second time. This feeling was really unpleasant.

The group of people dispersed and ran, while Xiao Yan followed closely beside Shen Xiaoxiao, pulling her through the forest quickly, and did not stop until all the bees were shaken away.

Shen Xiaoxiao leaned against the tree, breathing heavily, while Xiao Yan was calm and composed. This did not have any impact on him. After all, they often chased their prey when hunting, and the distance between them did not matter to him. What.

After calming down, they walked back, and Shen Xiaoxiao was in the mood to look around. No, she found something good just by looking at it. "Xiao Yan, go over there and take a look." She pointed. Take the road ahead on the right.

She stopped in front of a cluster of green plants. The leaves were lanceolate, hairless, and stemless, and the inflorescences were spike-shaped and cone-shaped. She bent down and pulled out a plant. The rhizome was not too fat. She pinched it with her hands, and juice immediately burst out.

"What are you doing digging this raw stem?"

"Do you know what this is?" Shen Xiaoxiao was a little surprised. She didn't see ginger in the tribe. Could it be that she missed it?

"The raw stems have been picked by the witch doctor before." He added, "However, we don't like the taste. We find it a bit pungent and don't like to eat it."

Shen Xiaoxiao reacted immediately and knew that the witch doctor might use it for medicine.

"You can eat this, use it for seasoning, or make ginger tea to relieve cold." He added, "The witch doctor may use it as medicine. If you catch a cold, you can make a bowl of ginger tea to drive away the cold. Drink a bowl of ginger tea in winter. , the whole person is warm."

"Please help me pull it out first."

The two of them quickly pulled out the dozen or so ginger plants, separated the leaves from the ginger, and each of them took a few and walked back. When they returned, the others had also come back, but none of them. Not daring to act rashly anymore, I carefully put the shells on the ground into the basket.

Shen Xiaoxiao thought for a moment and said, "You go find a dead tree and come back. We'll make fire with it to drive them away."

"Okay." Soon they found the dead wood. Shen Xiaoxiao handed the sharpened stick to Xiao Yan. Xiao Yan squatted down and rubbed the stick with both hands. Soon a small hole was drilled out of the wood. .

After a long time, the wood began to smoke. Someone took some dead leaves and tried to light a fire, but failed. After a while, sparks ignited on the wood. They ignited the dead leaves, and soon a fire broke out. It ignited.

Shen Xiaoxiao lit the tied wooden stick on fire, and then tied it to a small tree that was still wet. Soon the smoke rose, and then moved the small tree to the place where the beehive was, but thinking that there might be honey. It didn't hit the hive directly. After a while, the "buzzing" sound sounded again, and a swarm of bees flew out, and some even fell down.

However, they did not dare to get close and hid behind the tree until the bees flew away, then they took down the small tree.

Xiao Yan quickly climbed up the tree and quickly plucked a huge beehive. There were even bee pupae inside. Shen Xiaoxiao knew that they must have built a nest on it a long time ago. They were lucky last time and did not fight. to them, otherwise they would have been chased and stung last time.

"Goddess, what do you want with this thing?"

"This is honey, edible."

Others didn't believe it, and Shen Xiaoxiao continued, "It's very sweet." You don't need to look at anything else, just look at the honey on Xiao Yan's hand. Just smelling it has a sweet smell. .

Shen Xiaoxiao dipped her hand into it and licked it, "You can try it."

The others were hesitant, but they still couldn't hold back their curiosity. They dipped a little and tried it. Everyone's eyes were wide open. It was really sweet, sweeter than sweet fruit.

"Goddess, this is delicious."

"Yes, but it's a bit tiring to eat like this. It's for drinking with water. You can all try it when you get back."

Hearing what she said, they were instantly excited and said, "Goddess, if we don't want it, we'll give it all to you."

Shen Xiaoxiao was stunned for a moment and said, "This is a good thing, and we got it together, and you all have your share."

"Goddess, we don't want it." They waved their hands quickly.

Shen Xiaoxiao frowned in confusion, feeling that she didn't explain it clearly to them, so she told them the function again, but after listening to it, they still firmed up their thoughts and insisted on giving this hive to her. Even Erya also No exception, although she looked very reluctant, she didn't say anything after all.

Shen Xiaoxiao wanted to say something else, but Xiao Yan stopped her, "Goddess, we went to pick up chestnuts." They thought chestnut sounded better than the thorn fruit they called, so they called "chestnut" together.

Shen Xiaoxiao found a few big leaves to wrap the hive, and followed them to pick up the chestnuts. When they had almost picked up, the males started beating them again, and did not stop until the baskets they brought were full.

Seeing that it was getting late, the group of people rushed back. Shen Xiaoxiao wanted to help them share some of the burden, but was rejected. She had no choice but to follow them back with the hive in hand.

She was really embarrassed. Everyone except her had something in hand, and everyone who didn't take chestnuts went back with a bundle of firewood. She was the only one who didn't do any heavy work.

"Goddess, do you want to take a break?" They knew that Goddess could not walk for a long time like them, so they would often ask her.

"No, but do you want to take a break?" Shen Xiaoxiao shook her head. She, who was traveling lightly, had the nerve to take so many breaks. Those of them who were carrying things hadn't said anything yet.

"We don't have to, Goddess. If you feel tired, just tell us and we'll take a rest before leaving."

"good."

Xiao Yan walked beside her carrying chestnuts and said, "If you feel tired, take a rest before leaving."

Shen Xiaoxiao said helplessly, "No, I'm not that delicate." Although her physical strength was indeed not as good as theirs, she was not that weak.
