Wolf King

In the horizontal sheepfolds built simply with soil enclosures, the autumn and adult men of the Rabbit Man tribe are carefully inspecting the rams of the long-haired sheep.

The snow werewolves were all taken away by their cub, Ayun, to work. This year, it is impossible to drive the flocks to distant pastures to graze, and it is impossible to feed all the cattle and sheep by only grazing around the tribe. Yun then asked the male cats to classify and classify the long-haired sheep, and pick out the rams with more wool-producing ability—keep the ewes as much as possible, and the rams don’t need to continue to feed so many rams, and only keep medium-sized, The rams that are not too big or too small and have thicker inner fluff are used as seeds, and the buttocks of this kind of rams are marked with plant pigments to avoid being slaughtered by mistake.

Hmm... the weather is getting warmer, and it's time for the long-haired sheep to moult. Going to turn wool at this time often makes the wool fly around and chokes a group of rabbits; but no one would open their mouths to dislike doing this work After all, the snow wolves who were dragged to repair the "water conservancy project" mentioned by Ayun during this period of time were all so tired that they peeled off their skins - in comparison, just coughing and sneezing is simply too easy up.

After working on the "long-wool sheep seeding" work for most of the morning, when there was still time before lunch, the rabbit cats took the two rams that had been eliminated miserably back to the tribe, tied the four hooves of the rams with rattan It is pressed on a stone slab specially used for slaughter, and a clean pottery basin is placed under the neck, and the neck is cut to let blood... Try to drain the blood when slaughtering, which can greatly reduce the fishy smell in the mutton. After cooking the food, Ayun repeatedly reminded me.

After bloodletting, peel the skin, break it into pieces, soak it in warm water and wash it, cook it in a clay pot, add salt, add bean sprouts and a large amount of enoki mushrooms, add a lot of wild vegetables—most of the black beans are used for sowing, Now I can’t let go to eat bean sprouts like before; Flammulina velutipes is enough, and the human being in charge of cultivation can always provide enough; wild vegetables are also collected by rabbit cats, and they are better than snow werewolves in this kind of collecting work. Cubs are also good at it.

Before the change, Qiu and his clan had no idea that the weeds that grew wildly everywhere in spring could be eaten, and coming to the Snow Werewolf tribe was an eye-opener... Although some wild vegetables taste weird, food is food, and you can eat it. Eating is better than anything else.

Of course, there are also very delicious "wild vegetables", or leaves - when Ayun asked them to climb a kind of tree with very dense leaves that is common on the prairie to pick leaves, and told them that this kind of leaves are called "elm money" ", when it was edible and very delicious, Qiu and his clan thought that Ayun was teasing them...

So Ayun grabbed the fresh and tender leaves and stuffed them into his mouth to show them...

The curious manuls also imitated Ayun's example and tried the leaves, and after taking a bite, the eyes of the manuls almost bulged out-this kind of tender leaves are actually delicious!Better than some wild fruits!

Now, the leaves of the elm tree have become the most popular food in the tribe. The rattan grass baskets that are taller than autumn are full of elm money. They are soaked in river water and mixed with salt and chopped wild garlic. They can also be eaten raw. It is also safe to eat after steaming in the big steamer made by Ayun. Every meal is very clean, and there is no leftover.

"Don't steal it anymore." Qiu patted the small hand of the cub who came to help him steal the elm money, and grabbed a few wild fruits from under the bird's beak when he was picking elm money, and shared them among them. They drove these little guys out.

When the Snow Werewolf is not around, the mantle cubs will also run to play on the kang of their Datong shop, but most of the time the mantle cubs are still willing to stay in the mobile room, after all, there is no need to worry about not paying attention when rolling in the mobile room The direction fell.

After steaming the elm coins, let the adult clansmen continue to cook mutton and wild vegetables, and go to the activity room to check the spinning results of the cubs in the morning... Daily housework has to be done, and wool processing cannot be let go. He also counted on the snow werewolf to build a house for them after he was busy for a while.

Turning the large spindle to check the thickness of the wool, pulling out a section and comparing it with her own fingers, Qiu was very satisfied, this newly spun ultra-thick wool met Ayun’s requirements, and immediately stretched out her hands to rub the cubs’ heads : "It's well done. With this kind of thick yarn, you can weave the blanket that Ayun wants. If you spin some more, come and teach us when Ayun is free."

Thick and fluffy handmade blankets are woven with thick wool, which can be used to replace animal skins as a pawn cover. The cats and snow wolves who are all wearing woolen vests have no doubt that this is definitely better than animal skins...

Well, Ayun is very fair in the distribution of woolen vests. The very soft vests woven with fluff are only distributed to the old patriarch Huoyan, the snow werewolf and the cubs of the mantle (not including Qingyan), and the weak human Thrall, and others They can only wear long-haired woven vests—although wearing a long-haired vest next to the skin is indeed a bit itchy, but it is much more comfortable than wearing animal skins that are not breathable and sweat-absorbent, and everyone is still very welcome.

When the mutton in the earthenware pot was cooked thoroughly and the fragrance permeated the whole tribe, the snowwolves who had worked all morning also came back with hoes on their shoulders... just like in the past, working only in animal skin shorts Each of them was covered in black and yellow mud from the soles of their feet to their knees, and their hands, bodies, and faces were covered with mud spots. They were all exhausted, and a large group of people walked without making any sound—how lively they were. A moving person can't stand such daily oppression, without the strength to be alive and kicking and squeaking.

The adult manuls quickly pumped out the warm water from the large stove in the two bathroom reservoirs, retracted their paws, and patiently washed the hands of the snow wolves who couldn't move after sitting down... This is Ayun It is stipulated that when eating, the whole body can be dirty anywhere, and the hands must be clean.

People from the two ethnic groups sat around the open space in front of the activity room, picked up pottery bowls, picked up chopsticks (it was as simple as a rabbit mandarin learning to play with chopsticks) and started eating. I personally eat a lot more politely... If you eat fast, you will be driven to work by Ayun soon, so it is better to eat slowly.

Well, it's a wonderful way to solve the problem of snow werewolves eating too badly from another angle...

"Where's Sal?" Xiao Yun took a few mouthfuls before he noticed that there was someone missing.

"He is harvesting Flammulina velutipes, and he won't let us help." Qiu replied, "I've already reserved his share, and put it on the big stove."

Xiao Yun stopped talking. It seems that the "reuse" of the mantle after he came here made Thrall feel a sense of crisis. In terms of cultivation, he became more and more "independent" and refused to be touched by others. The cub of the mantle was curious last time. I was scolded by this guy when I was close to the mushroom house... Anyway, as long as he likes it, just don't kill the enoki mushrooms in the tribe.

"However, if the weather gets warmer, it's time to build a mushroom house with a deeper dig. The higher temperature seems to have an impact on the growth of Flammulina velutipes." After thinking about it for a while, Xiao Yun put Sal's matter aside. Arrived again.Right now, the outdoor temperature is in the [-]s, so it's not time to worry.

After lunch, the nimble adult catkins cleaned the pots and bowls, Xiao Yun gave the clansmen half an hour to digest, and called the patriarch and five warriors of the clan, as well as the black panther fighter Qingyan, and the rabbit catfighter Qiu over here." meeting".

"Our wheat field has sprouted. I went to see it in the morning. The emergence rate is not bad, but some seedlings tend to be too dense. To ensure the harvest, we have to keep up with the follow-up work." Xiao Yundao, "My plan is, Let someone who is more careful and dexterous go with me to check the emergence of wheat seedlings, and control the growth of too dense places to ensure that the wheat seedlings develop evenly. For candidates, people with Qingcao Dahe wool Ashan Ayue, plus Qingyan and rabbit mantle, Patriarch, what do you think?"

When Xiao Yun makes any decision, he will definitely ask the patriarch's opinion. In terms of attitude, respect and respect for the patriarch is absolutely nothing...that is, every time he asks for opinions, he will definitely block the patriarch's choice...so the patriarch is serious. After a moment of contemplation, the replies given were almost the same: "I think it's feasible."

Qingyan didn't show much expression, he was actually just making up the numbers during the "meeting"; Qiu was a little excited and complicated, the Snow Werewolf didn't just let them do the easiest work, this proves that the Snow Werewolf regards the mantle as one of his own Yes, this is a good thing, but looking at the tortured appearance of the snow wolves, Qiu is a little scared...

"Separating the seedlings can't delay the day's work, and we can do it at night." Xiao Yun said cruelly, anyway, everyone can have night vision, and working overtime in the dark is not a big deal. People are engaged in intensive farming just like Chinese farmers, and the difference is the same, and the mistakes are not too big, and it's over...

The snow werewolf warriors Ashan and Ayue present here first showed cute and shocked expressions, and then they looked mournful and concubine—thought they could be relieved from the hard work of digging ditches, but it turned out to be even worse!

"Then there is the matter of topdressing the wheat seedlings. I am very sad to tell everyone that last winter, all the soil and fertilizer we had prepared were used up... there was nothing left!" Xiao Yun said seriously.

"Hmm..." Everyone couldn't understand these words, and each was more confused than the other, but the patriarch continued to put on a dark face.

"I thought about it, and the only thing that can be put into use quickly without burning out the wheat seedlings is bone meal compound fertilizer, which means that we need a lot of bones, any kind of bone will do." Xiao Yun looked at the soldiers, "You are the ones who know the grassland best. If we need the leftover bones of wild animals, or the bones of dead animals, where should we find them?"

Not to mention the warriors of the Snow Wolf Clan, the Black Panther Qingyan and the Rabbit Qiuqiu fell into deep thought at the same time, using their brains to think about this question that they had never considered before. are used to it.

"When the tribe migrated over last year, there were a lot of bones in the manticore's den that I drove away. It's about four hours away from the tribe to the northeast. You can drag the bones from that den back." Ah Shan thought of an idea first.

"You can have this." Xiao Yun immediately compared his thumbs to his uncle.

"When I went to the swamp in the south to collect mud, I saw a lot of beast remains soaked in the mud in the place where there are many ooze monsters." Ah Yue was not very confident, "Ah Yun, can those be used?"

"It's possible, but there won't be any danger?" Xiao Yun frowned. In this world, there are snowwolves, cat clans, tauren, and monsters. Of course, there are all kinds of monsters. Let precious clansmen take risks in places where monsters are dense. Xiao Yun did not accept the matter.

"The ooze monster is just disgusting, what danger can it be?" Hong Ye smiled, "Well, Ah Yue and I will drag those bones soaked in the mud, we—"

"No, forget it, it won't be worthwhile if you get trapped in it." Xiao Yun said immediately, the swamp on the south side of the tribe is not as dangerous as the swamp on the side of the Tauren, but the swamp is a swamp after all.

"Well... I went to see the swamp over there. If you want to drag out the bones in the mud, I think my clansman is more suitable." Qiu thought for a while before making a sound. It is the most basic common sense to understand the front, back, left, and right sides. He also killed a few of the slime monsters that Ah Yue said to ensure that these little monsters were not dangerous before leaving. Let the cubs go inside and tie the bones with rattan grass, while others drag them outside."

The adults of the mantle are quite petite. As a warrior, the height of the autumn human form only reaches Xiao Yun's chin (about 1.5 meters), and the body length after the animalization is also similar to that of the human form, and the cubs are naturally more compact... the smallest The cub looked exactly like a kindergarten student. After turning into a beast, it was only [-] to [-] centimeters long, and it was still light, weighing only [-] to [-] kilograms. Xiao Yun carried it with little effort.

"It's not safe, what if the ooze monster attacks the cub?" Xiao Yun thought for a while and shook his head, the mantle is also a precious resource.

Hongye had no choice but to say: "You worry too much, Ayun, killing the ooze monster is just a matter of one arrow, and Ashan and I can get rid of all the ooze monsters in that area before the cubs leave..."

Having said that, Xiao Yun has no reason to refuse. After all, the swamp is relatively close, and it is the cheapest thing to be able to use the ready-made bones in it. You can also get back the swamp mud used to make bone meal compound fertilizer by the way.

After a general discussion, Xiao Yun looked at the patriarch again: "Go to the swamp tomorrow morning to retrieve those bones for use, patriarch, what do you think?"

The patriarch pondered for a while, and nodded with a deep face like an old-fashioned country seeker: "Okay, let's do it like this."

The snow werewolf warriors didn't react much, and the corners of Qingyan and Qiu's mouths twitched uncontrollably under their seemingly serious expressions—they are really not used to this way of getting along with the snow werewolf patriarch! !

Not to mention the hard work all afternoon, at night, after dinner, Xiao Yun dragged Ah Shan and the others, who looked enviously at the others to rest, into the wheat field.

At this time, only ten days have passed since the sowing, and some of the seedlings that have emerged can already see the phenomenon of dense growth, that is, vigorous growth-the spring-sown wheat that does not need to survive the winter is not afraid because of the tenderness of the wheat seedlings, the number of stems, and the tiller joints. Insufficient storage of sugar leads to weakening of frost resistance and death due to freezing, but the group has poor ventilation and light transmission, few secondary roots, shallow entry into the soil and late lodging, so it's a pit...

It is not difficult to solve this problem. Hoe 6 to 8 cm deep between the rows of wheat to cut off part of the root system and reduce the absorption of nutrients to control the excessive growth of the aboveground part. It takes time, but it's worth it in order to cultivate strong wheat seedlings.

Well, plowing the land that has been plowed several times is easier and less labor-intensive than that of the Snow Werewolf. In the same sentence, he is short and does not bend as much as the Snow Werewolf, so the cubs of the Mantle can do it Good and fast... Don't look at these kittens, they are small, soft and soft, and their strength and so on are really stronger than Sal, who is an adult male.

After working for most of the night, Xiao Yun, who was not a devil at all, put everyone back to take a bath and sleep. Anyway, the [-]-acre wheat field can't be settled in one night, just a few more nights.There is still tomorrow's work waiting for me. If I don't rest, I will waste more time.

In the morning, because he wanted to collect bones to make bone meal compound fertilizer, Xiao Yun generously... no longer forced everyone to continue digging ditches, but took them to the edge of the swamp, where those who should collect mud took mud, and those who should drag bones dragged them .

Doing this kind of not-too-tiring work is almost like a holiday for the snow wolves who have been miserably squeezed. Everyone is very grateful for the look in Xiao Yun's eyes.

Xiao Yun: "..." Uh, it seems that the training is a bit too much, you have to pay attention to the severity, otherwise it will all cause Stockholm syndrome, who is he going to reason with?

The four male cat cubs lined up, each holding a long vine grass in their hands, and the older one, about one meter tall, raised his hand towards Xiao Yun: "Ah Yun, let's go? "

Xiao Yun immediately bent down to touch their heads one by one. The hair on the cubs' hairs was also soft, even though they were all cut to look like dogs gnawing on them (...), they didn't feel prickly to the touch. Just come back."

Going a little deeper into the swamp, standing at Xiao Yun's position, you can still see those skeletons soaked in the mud with dense aquatic plants... The most deceptive part of this swamp is here, the water outside is not counted. Many, most of them are hard ground, and the places soaked by water are relatively shallow mud pits, at most not reaching the insteps. If you don’t pay attention, you may think that this place is at most a relatively shallow low-lying land-but if you want to Going deep, those places that seem to grow extremely lush aquatic plants can't help but find a deep pool that can swallow people, or a sticky and mellow deep mud pit that you can't even think of getting out of it.

The cubs of the mantles seem to have a lot of experience in walking in this kind of confusing swamp. The four of them walked in with one end of the vines and grass, and they all bent down and turned into animal shapes... The combat form has thick fur and strong buoyancy, and it will not sink if it steps on a particularly soft place. The tension of four-legged landing is also greater than that of two-legged landing, and it can be stepped on as long as there are aquatic plants.

The four cubs set off in different directions. The youngest cub first walked to the skeleton of a wild goat whose body was mostly covered in mud, with only the head and back exposed. Tie the rattan grass to the wild goat's neck and circle it twice, then run back in a leisurely manner...

There are quite a lot of animals that starve to death in the quagmire or are digested by the ooze monster. When dragging back, very few can be dragged back intact. Most of them either fell apart in half or dragged During the process, a lot of bones were lost on the way; if the scattered bones were nearer, the adult cats would go in and pick them up, and the cubs farther away would slowly pull them back...

A few hours later, with the efforts of the catcats, the ant-moving mountains pulled out all kinds of animal bones like hills from the swamp that had existed for an unknown number of years...even a skeleton of a monster was pulled out.

The spine is a huge human-shaped skeleton with four arms and a beast-shaped lower body. Its triangular skull has a straight horn more than one meter long protruding from the skull. The body of the horn is brown and black, and the tip of the horn is red. When the butt-up skeleton was dragged out of the quagmire, Hongye exclaimed in amazement: "Isn't this... Isn't this a snow beast?!"

"Really, it's a snow beast!" Qiu, who was chased by this thing and ran for his life in a panic, said in horror.

"Oh, is it one of the very strong monsters?" Xiao Yun stroked his chin and looked at the huge skeleton that was not broken apart or stained with mud during the dragging process. He knocked it with his hand and turned Looking at the crowd, he said seriously, "There is no poison in this kind of monster bone? If it is poisonous, it can't be used, so I can only throw it back."

The soldiers all looked at him dully.

"Uh... I haven't heard that snow beasts are poisonous, I only know that the horns of snow beasts can emit lightning..." Hongye said with the corner of her mouth twitching.

"It's from the magic department? Hmm... then knock off the horns and use them as decorations, and pound the other bones into bone powder." Xiao Yun dismantled a part of the animal-shaped rib and looked through it. "The bone quality is so good, and the calcium is very Enough, I hope it can provide more nutrition to our wheat fields."

The warriors looked at him dully again.

These various bones were hauled back to the tribe, and those with relatively loose bones were directly smashed into bone meal with stones, and those with denser bones were steamed in a pot first, and then smashed into powder after steaming; the obtained bone meal was mixed with swamp mud Mix at a ratio of one to three, and then apply this kind of compound fertilizer with sufficient nitrogen, phosphorus and potassium content to the wheat field - usually this kind of homemade compound fertilizer is used to cushion the bottom of flower pots, but Xiao Yun has no ready-made fertilizer anyway I can't control that much, so I use it as a top dressing for wheat seedlings.

Finish topdressing the wheat field, continue to cultivate the wheat seedlings deeply to ensure that the wheat seedlings do not grow densely and vigorously, and work hard to dig water canals for the wheat fields... The busy and painful days have passed for nearly a month. The two-meter-wide and 60-meter-wide canal was finally completed. The bottom of the ditch was compacted, and the upper water inlet and lower water outlet were dug through at the same time.

The people of the clan were all crowded at the upper water inlet and waited to cheer for their fruits of labor. Ten seconds later, 20 seconds later... the clan leader looked at Xiao Yun in a daze: "Ah Yun, why doesn't the water flow into it? ? It poured in a little bit and then retreated?"

"That's for sure. The terrain here is relatively high, and the water will only flow to the lower place. The river will not climb up when it reaches the water inlet." Xiao Yun said, who was extremely tired, sitting on the ground panting.

"...Then why did we dig so hard for (ΩДΩ)?!" The patriarch was shocked, very shocked, with tears in his eyes.

"Didn't I dig a platform next to the water inlet? Look, that's it." Xiao Yun raised his finger and pointed to the place where Niujiao was squatting, "Just get a water truck there to bring the river water up... It is a good thing that the terrain of the wheat field is higher than the river, if the terrain here is lower than the river bank, then I would not dare to farm here, and if we send out any water, we will have to drink the northwest wind."

"Digging the water inlet and outlet is not to let the river flow in by itself, but because the soil barrier is unreliable and the water cannot flow freely, so we need to build a movable sluice gate at the water inlet..."
