Ye Xing used a bear paw to coax Hu Mian into accepting the existence of the mount.

congratulations!

But she always felt that the way Hu Mian looked at her was a little strange. She couldn’t tell what it meant. It was as if she was being stared at. Considering that Hu Mian had been staring at her blatantly, Ye Xing thought about it and didn’t care.

In the next few days, Hu Qing led people to collect grass for the horses, while Bao Mi continued to lead people in training and hunting.

Ye Xing took Bao Sanwa and the others to learn horse riding. After seeing her graceful riding style, the females became extremely excited and rushed to practice with her.

Fourth Sister Lu even decided to live in the stable to accompany the horses. She had a beautiful idea: "Your Highness said that the closer the horses are to you, the faster they learn. So I will just stay with them! It won't be cold if we stay together anyway."

She was determined and insisted on staying with her for a few days. Ye Xing looked at the weather and let her do as she pleased. When it got colder, Lu Simei would naturally go back to the house.

The carriage is not easy to make at the moment, mainly because the wheels are a bit difficult to make. There are no tools at all, and it is too difficult to plan it with your hands relying solely on your internal strength. Ye Xing decided to wait a little longer.

But the sled is totally feasible for now.

According to Yingyu and the others, the snow will get heavier in the future, and the ground will be frozen very solid by then, so there should be no problem running a horse-drawn sleigh.

The facts turned out to be just as they expected. After a few days, the snow on the ground became thicker and thicker, and the ground became extremely solid. Ye Xing took Zhuyue to try it out, and found that there was no problem running on the wide sled.

Everyone gathered outside in the heavy snow, all very curious about this thing called a sled. It was just a few tree trunks tied together with a horse, but it could run so fast.

"The sled can easily carry more things and people. When we slowly plan the roads, it will be more convenient to travel in winter."

Ye Xing first taught Yingyu and the others, and then let them teach others.

The presence of horses and sleds means that people who cannot transform into beast form also temporarily possess some of the abilities of beast form.

Especially those orcs who were injured and unable to transform, they looked even more excited and studied particularly hard.

Two large sheds were also built in the stable. The roof was made of a large net made of dead vines that Lu San had led people to weave with great effort, and a lot of small brambles were pressed on top of it. The wall was made of three layers of tree trunks and three layers of bramble nets stacked alternately. Although it was not as good as a mud wall, it could withstand a lot of wind and snow.

It is countless times stronger than the forest where the Wild Horse King once lived.

Zhuyue now trusts Ye Xing very much and is extremely close to her, and even the ponies are very close to these humans.

They are becoming more and more adapted to life in captivity. One can imagine that when the snow season is over and spring comes, the scene of them galloping on horseback will be exciting.

But now, they are facing new troubles——

"The prey is easy to deal with. The main problem now is that we don't have enough utensils. We can make wooden bowls or bamboo tubes with a little effort, and it's barely enough. But there are not enough pots. We only have two big pots, and we have to boil hot water and soup every day. With fifty people, it's a bit stretched." Leopard Sanwa was worried and couldn't help using the new idioms he had learned.

Ye Xing nodded. This was indeed a problem and she had discovered it a long time ago.

"Otherwise, how about we find a way to carve a few stone pots?" Hu Qing suggested.

"No, it's hard to find suitable stones. I tried several times before, but they broke as soon as I put force. I managed to make one, but it exploded as soon as the firewood was burned." Lu Simei objected.

"Speaking of which, the Youyan tribe is best at making tools, and their clay pots are the most useful," said Baomi.

Ye Xing knew this tribe. They had gone to the Youyan tribe to exchange flint before. The only two big pots were also carried back by Hu Qing and Bao Mi at that time.

But now they had already gone to their wintering grounds, and there was no one to make a pot, and it was so cold that they couldn't make one.

However, Bao Mi's words did remind her.

"It's not easy to make it now. It would be better if it was ready-made," she said.

"Ready-made? Where?"

No one quite understands.

Yingyu was the smartest and immediately understood Ye Xing's meaning.

"Your Highness, are you saying that we can go to those tribes to look for it?"

Ye Xing nodded: "That's right, they may not be able to take everything with them when they leave. We can go over and take a look, maybe we can find something useful!"

——It’s not that it’s not certain, it’s that you will definitely find it!

Bao Mi and the others immediately thought of it and a look of sudden enlightenment appeared on their faces.

"There are a lot of them in the Tiger Tribe. Every year we only take away food and medicinal herbs. The pots, pans, and other utensils will be left in the tribe."

"No one has ever thought of taking equipment for wintering, which is a good deal for us!"

"And we have a sled, so we can pull a lot of stuff without having to use our beast form!"

During the snowy season, the weather is cold and food is scarce, and the consumption of beast form is several times that of human form, so generally at this time, beastmen try to change into beast form as little as possible.

Now that we have horses, we are not afraid of this anymore.

Ye Xing quietly watched them discuss excitedly, feeling very relieved. These people were finally beginning to grow up slowly, and compared to the past, they were really more like human beings.

"Your Highness, although the Tiger Tribe may have a lot of things, it is a little far away. This place is closest to the Youyan Tribe. How about we go there first to take a look?" Hu Qing suggested excitedly.

"Okay! I'll do as you say!"

Ye Xing readily agreed: "Let's get ready and go to Youyan Tribe tomorrow!"
