It took a full 45 days on the way back. Da Wu, Li and other orc warriors finally returned to the tribe with a large amount of supplies and slaves without any danger.

Although this journey took a lot of time, overall it went smoothly. I didn't meet a guy who cut off the road. Except for 6 slaves who were too seriously injured and died on the road, all the other slaves were quite a few. was brought back.

The great witch recited the death curse for the dead slaves, held a simple funeral ceremony, and asked people to dig a pit on the spot, and buried them in the forest.

The big witch's move greatly reassured the slaves who had been worried about being used as reserve food and eating it in the cold winter.

According to the concept of the nearby tribal residents, only the dead who were buried by the tribal witch or priest who chanted the curse of the past life can return to the embrace of the beast god after death, return to the realm of the gods, and never suffer from hunger, pain, and disease. troubled.On the contrary, you will fall into the demon realm, and your eternal life will be accompanied by hunger, pain, and frenzy.

Death is the way to new life.Death is the beginning of life.

Not only the tribes near the Black Forest, but also many people outside the forest think so.

Generally speaking, only ordinary residents of the tribe are eligible to enjoy funerals held by priests, and only tribe warriors can enjoy funerals held by tribal great witches.

It is not bad for slaves not to be taken by their masters to feed their prey after death. There will be no priests to hold funeral ceremonies for them, let alone tribal witches.

Many old slaves looked at the slaves who passed away amidst the deep chanting of the great witch, and they were so envious that they wished to replace them with their own bodies.

An old slave who can live through 35 cold winters, not to mention how smart he is, must have experienced a lot in his life.Compared with the young slaves and slave cubs who still had fear in their hearts, they were completely sure that the Changhe Tribe would definitely not use them as rations to exchange them back.A few old guys also knew that the Changhe Tribe went to their tribe to exchange white sweet potatoes. After thinking about it, and after some old slaves from a distant tribe with planting experience, they had a vague guess in their hearts.

Slowly, an orc warrior finally 'accidentally' leaked the fact that the tribe planted a lot of white sweet potatoes, so that they would not starve in the cold winter.

The orc warrior who leaked his words was reprimanded by the big witch in public, and he was punished severely when he came down. His dejected and remorseful appearance proved the truth of the matter from the side.

At this moment, even the young slaves came to their senses, and the haze in their hearts completely dissipated, and the few slaves who wanted to escape completely gave up their thoughts and followed the large army obediently.

The days in the cold winter are difficult, and even the ordinary residents of the tribe who own private property have to suffer from cold and starvation, let alone them?

Most of the slaves were frozen to death and starved to death in the cold winter.

Now that the Changhe Tribe has food, even if they are allowed to eat two bites of white sweet potatoes, as long as they can survive the cold winter, who would want to run away?

When they finally came to the Changhe Tribe and saw the fields of white sweet potatoes, a hint of joy and a smile finally appeared on the numb faces of the slaves.

Da Wu and the others came back just in time. The temperature has dropped rapidly in the past two days, and the frost has gradually appeared in the morning. The nearly 800 mu of white sweet potatoes planted by the tribe have all matured.

From three days ago, the slaves had already begun digging sweet potatoes.

The white sweet potatoes of the tribe are not as intensively cultivated as the white sweet potatoes in Wu Nuo's yard. The white sweet potatoes produced are slightly smaller, but they are also much larger than the wild ones in the forest.The average weight of the dug out sweet potatoes is nearly 2 catties, and at least 6 can be hung on a vine of white sweet potatoes, and 9 or 10 can be hung on the vine. On average, 14 to 5 catties of white sweet potatoes can be dug out from one seedling.

The output far exceeded Wu Nuo's expectations.

A large number of white sweet potatoes have been dug up continuously, but storage has become a problem.

It is impossible to slice and dry all the white sweet potatoes. One time is too late, and the nutrients of the other two will be lost during the drying process. What about the three, you have to save the seeds for next year, right?

The dug up white sweet potatoes cannot be kept, they are all washed in the river, cut into slices, cut into pieces and dried in the sun.Fortunately, although the temperature keeps dropping, the weather is very sunny. Recently, there have been very few rainy days, and the occasional rain is concentrated in the evening, which does not affect the drying of white sweet potatoes during the day at all.

From the remaining undamaged white sweet potatoes, pick out the small part with the best quality and keep them as seeds, and store the other part for eating in the cold winter.

The best and only way to store these fresh sweet potatoes is to dig a cellar.

The tribe's manpower is not enough, and it is unrealistic to send people out to dig the cellar.But these dug out white sweet potatoes can't just be put outside like this. If they are frozen by frost, they will rot soon, even if they are put in the cellar.

No way, everyone had to dig sweet potatoes during the day and stay up late at night to dig the cellar.

Wu Nuo once heard a co-worker in the dormitory show off their vegetable cellar in the Northeast. Although he hadn't seen it with his own eyes, the person had told him about how it was done. Wu Nuo still had some impressions——

First dig a big pit with a depth of four to five meters, and the area is determined according to the needs of the family. The small ones are two or three square meters, and the large ones are more than a dozen or 20 square meters. Logs, sorghum stalks, and corn stalks are used to build a roof on the platform, and the top is filled with soil until it is level with the ground. A one-meter-square door is left at one corner, and a ladder is used to enter and exit.

It's one thing to have an impression, it's another to actually do it.

Wu Nuo was in a relative's house in the countryside, and had seen what the cellars in the south looked like, but given the cold winter conditions of the Changhe Tribe, the cellars in the south were obviously not very suitable.

Wu Nuo took the slaves from the tribe and experimented in his yard for more than ten days before finally getting a vegetable cellar five meters deep and nearly 30 square meters.In the cellar, the ground and walls were built with newly pulled bricks and clay. The roof of the cellar is like a house, with a pointed "roof" built with wood, and then thick reeds are laid to make the second floor. The platform is made into a roof, and finally filled with soil.The open spaces in the yard were also all paved with bad-quality bricks and clay.

The entrance to the cellar was left on the right side of the small courtyard. There was no space for repairing the house. The one-meter-square entrance was blocked with a whole piece of blue bricks. At first glance, it was impossible to see that there was an entrance at all.

In order to make it easier to get in and out of the cellar, Wu Nuo could only make the ladder according to the appearance in his memory, after a lot of effort.

Although the shape is very ugly, it is superior in that it is made of sufficient materials and is very strong. Orc warriors weighing more than two hundred catties can easily climb it.

The cellar of Wu Nuo's family began to be dug before the white sweet potatoes were harvested. After it was done, it was opened to the wind for three days, and it couldn't wait to put it into use.

The yield of white sweet potatoes was unexpectedly high. After digging out the small piece of white sweet potatoes that Wu Nuo planted in the yard, he picked out the damaged ones and the seed ones, and put the leftovers for food into a small cellar.

The white sweet potatoes used by the tribe for planting were gathered in one place, and the location was chosen behind the yard of the leader Jintong's house, a place with a rather high terrain.

The cellar was dug to a depth of nearly six meters, and a total of 30 cellars had to be dug for a 20-square-meter cellar. After Wu Nuo’s cellar, everyone rushed to work overnight, and only two have been dug out so far.

These cellars have a lot of space, and white sweet potatoes are heavy and heavy. If they are filled without leaving gaps, each cellar can store at least nearly 10 catties of white sweet potatoes.But it is definitely unrealistic to fill it completely, and the storage method of the reserved white sweet potatoes is different from that of the reserved ones.

Wu Nuo remembered that the sweet potatoes, ginger, etc. left by relatives’ homes should not only be hidden in the cellar, but also covered layer by layer with sand and straw to ensure that the seeds were not spoiled. Just opened the cellar.

White sweet potatoes are not exactly like sweet potatoes, but more like a combination of sweet potatoes and potatoes. As an original species, its vitality is even stronger than the two, but it can't be sloppy when it comes to saving seeds.

Wu Nuo intends to imitate the method of storing sweet potatoes and ginger seeds by his relatives in the countryside to store white sweet potatoes.

According to the system's mandatory task progress prompt, his thinking should not be too wrong.

That's right, not long ago, the system gave Wu Nuo another mandatory task.

The task is to help the Changhe Tribe properly store food and seeds for the winter, and the time limit is 30 days.

The reward has a full 1 points, plus a random draw.

After Wu Nuo decided to imitate his relatives' method to store white sweet potato seeds, the progress of the task increased by a full 10%, fully proving that his idea is completely feasible.

In addition to this task, the system issued two more rewarding exploration tasks to Wu Nuo.

One is to teach the method of pickling and storing vegetables, reward 2000 points, and a set of thermal underwear.

One is to teach how to marinate and smoke meat products, and reward 2000 points, low-level wooden bow and arrow making drawings and a detailed explanation.

In terms of the exploration series missions done before, the point rewards for these two ordinary missions are rare and generous.

However, it is not an egg, and an ox cart will cost a full 400 points.

The more than 6000 points in Wu Nuo's account are only enough to buy 15 bullock carts, which can be useful.

It was too late for the tribesmen to build their own carts. There were not so many people and not so much time. The only way was to find another loan from the system.

His previous loan has not been repaid, and he has to repay half of the system's loan points first, which is 1.5w points.

Thinking about the interest rate of the system, Wu Nuo made great determination before deciding to continue the loan. As a result, for several nights in a row, he had nightmares about being chased and killed by non-performing Gao, Li, and Loan with a watermelon knife, and ran countless streets. , and finally ran into a dead end, seeing the other party put a knife in the face of a certain urban management officer, Wu Xiaonuo was so frightened that he woke up, sat up on the wolf fur mattress, wiped his forehead with cold sweat.

But looking at the brilliance in the eyes of these primitive natives in scanty clothes; when he proposed an idea, everyone would do whatever it takes to implement and complete it for him, taking his words as the standard, and seeing their enthusiastic, trusting and respectful eyes, Wu Nuo had to admit that he was impressed.

Get in debt and get in debt.

If there are too many lice, it will not itch if you have too many debts, and the boat will be straight when it reaches the bridge! /(tot)/~~ Wu Nuo found countless excuses to comfort himself, but the biggest reality is that even if he worked hard to teach the females of the tribe how to make sauerkraut pickles and bacon, he got 4000 points Points, and at the same time completed the previous task of mining salt crystal mines, and got 1000 points, plus the rest of the account, there are only 1.1 points in total, which is not enough to pay off the debt. (╯‵口′)╯︵┻━┻ Fortunately, after Da Wu and the others finally returned safely, the system also reminded Wu that his mandatory task—to participate in the tribal fair—was completed.

In addition to 5000 points, there is also a random chance to draw a lottery.

Before his paw pressed the claim button, Wu Nuo's little heart thumped in disappointment.
