Chapter 0013 Fighting with the sky and the earth
Looking at the rice fields that were ruined by the cattle, Ye Qing felt a sense of anger, but had nowhere to vent.
This thief, God, will you let people live?
Must change!
After a long time, Ye Qing suppressed his anger and observed the paddy field.
All the tribe members began to sort out the farmland.
The paddy fields are all by the river.
The tribe members have not invented irrigation technology yet.
Rice planting requires a lot of water.
The artificial water withdrawal method is too inefficient to meet the growth needs of rice.
If the paddy fields are far away from the shore or the terrain is high, the rice will not survive.
These paddy fields are mudflats by the river. They have been simply transformed and are basically flush with the water surface of the river.
This solves the water use problem.
But this requires strict positioning. It is not enough to be high or low.
Not all tidal flats are suitable for conversion into paddy fields.
Therefore, there are many tidal flats, but not many can be transformed into paddy fields.
Paddy fields of all sizes are distributed in a scattered manner, one in the east and one in the west, and each paddy field is also in shape, without two paddy fields of the same shape and size.
The neat and tidy scenes of later generations are invisible.
After inquiry, Ye Qing learned that the tribe only planted rice for one season.
How wasteful this is.
In his impression, rice is planted in two seasons, and the annual double-scrambled him deeply remembers it.
The ten days of double-tracking were like a nightmare.
After asking about climate issues, Ye Qing thought a lot.
In fact, in this era, the climate is very warm. During the year, the weather is warm for a long time. Although it is the same season, the winter is very short and not cold.
The tribe members have never seen snow before and don’t know what snow is.
Keep cold?
Not needed!
This is completely similar to the tropical equatorial climate in later generations.
In this way, it is completely feasible to grow double-season rice. In places with this climate in later generations, three-season rice can be grown.
If a tribe planted double-season rice, wouldn’t the grain output double?
Why don’t tribes grow double-season rice?
Seed problem?
The seeds are also cultivated, and he thinks they can try it.
Even though the output is not high at the beginning, this is the extra portion, which is at least a tonic.
No fertilizer?
Wood ash and manure are not bad either.
He thought again that if Leize was Taihu Lake, the climate in this location should not be like this!
He recalled that there seemed to be a period of global warming before history.
Because of the warming climate, glaciers melt, causing sea levels to rise.
And it causes sea flooding and great floods.
During the mythical and legendary flood period, the Noah's Ark in the West, Nuwa in the East repaired the sky, and Dayu controlled the flood. This was this period.
Thinking of Dayu controlling the flood, his neck chills!
Is Dayu an era? If it exists at the same time and is slaughtered by Dayu's tribe in the future, it would be a tragic story.
Thinking of the flood, he fought a cold war.
He remembered that in the theory that explained the reasons for the disappearance of the Liangzhu civilization, there was a saying of a great flood.
Will it be flooded here?
When is this now?
How long will it take to disappear Liangzhu?
Floods are a difficult problem for all ages.
Even later generations with advanced science and technology still suffer from floods and have no way to completely eliminate them.
Ye Qing began to imagine what measures to improve.
Flood control must be done with all your efforts.
The paddy fields must be moved to a slightly higher position, and the irrigation system must be excavated.
River channels are cleared and embankments are built?
The project is too big and requires too much manpower, so let it go for the time being.
Tribal housing must be renovated, otherwise, a typhoon and all the simple thatched huts will be destroyed.
After thinking through this, his sense of urgency became stronger and stronger.
Survival is not easy!
We must fight against the sky and the earth!
You must find a way to invent bronze!
With bronze, the fundamental killer to improve productivity, enhance tribal strength, and fight against natural disasters.
Bronze is the general trend!
By mastering the general trend, you will stand at the forefront of the times.
Who said that even a pig can fly when standing in the wind!
Although the small inventions such as straw hats and straw hats are quite effective, they are smaller than bronze, and are completely pediatric.
But, when copper is there, where is tin?
He looked at the continuous back mountain and west mountain and made up his mind silently...
Even if you travel thousands of mountains and valleys, you must find out the tin!
After gathering his mind, he continued to investigate the rice.
The rice has just risen past the flowers and is in the grouting period.
The plants are slightly shorter than the rice seen in later generations, and the stems are thinner, and the others seem to be no different.
After careful observation, new discoveries were made.
Each clump of rice seems to grow from multiple seeds. Unlike later rice, a large clump of dozens of plants usually only have three or four seeds, which are formed by a large number of tillering.
After a brief count, most of the single plants without tillering account for half, 30% of them tillering into two plants, and very few of them tillering than three plants.
In later generations, one plant can grow into dozens of or dozens of rice through tillering.
He counted the number of rice ears and grains, less than 100, which was very small compared to later generations. In later generations, rice ears and grains were 200 to 300.
Looking at the density of the planting and the fullness of the grains, Ye Qing silently calculated that the yield per mu is about 200 kilograms.
I will then visually estimate the total area of paddy fields by the river, which is about 100 acres.
The total tribe population is just over 200.
According to this calculation, the per capita rice capacity is about 100 kilograms per year.
The hulls are used to produce rice, which is only 70 kilograms of rice per person. On average, it is 2 2 meters a day.
Two meals, one meal is 1 2 meters.
How much rice is there in 1 2 meter?
The most suitable rice for human taste has a moisture content of about 62%, which is almost the golden ratio.
According to this ratio, 1 2 meter can make more than 2 2 liang of rice.
Not enough to eat!
The first bowl of dry rice I ate after I was reborn is more than half a pound.
I am just a six-year-old child, and adults eat more.
Think about the time I ate meat last night, 8 people and ten kilograms of meat, and I didn’t even have any soup left.
Everyone at this time has big belly!
But thinking about it, it's reasonable.
In this era, there were no such many nutritional intake methods in later generations, no light, no Luhua, no joy, no Yifen, no Oreo, no white rabbit, no nutritional express line...
This chapter is not finished yet, please click on the next page to continue reading the exciting content later! The nutrition required by the human body depends on two meals a day, and eating more at one meal is completely reasonable.
There is not enough food!
Half of the food also depends on fishing, hunting and gathering.
Depending on the situation, the tribe will not have much excess grain reserves.
There is no ability to resist risks at all!
If there is a natural disaster or something, people will starve to death!
Ye Qing became worried.
Suddenly there was a noise there.
Many people ran around and shouted:
"Dragon, dragon, dragon!"
Taikang and Shaokang threw away the stone sickle in their hands, held the wooden spear, and ran over.
Although the patriarch was slow, he hurried over there.
Come again!
What the hell?
Ye Qing looked at the sky.
I feel ruthless, you just have to work hard!
Then, he followed.
In a paddy field, the tribe members holding wooden spears surrounded a large circle. In the middle of the circle, there were sounds of roars accompanied by the sound of rustling water.
Ye Qing was short and could not be seen outside, so he got into the cracks between the crowd.
Shock!
It's a big crocodile!
It's so big, including the tail, it's nearly five meters long, and he can't recognize what kind of breed it is.
Surrounded by the shouting tribe members, the crocodile was irritable and uneasy, with a ferocious look, and kissed with sharp teeth, pounced and roared from time to time.
The cold eyes of the crocodile and the yellow-green pupils shrink from time to time, emitting a heart-wrenching light.
The most terrifying thing is that long tail, covered with thick scales, is tough, thick, flexible and fast.
The tail swept over, and the water splashed like a waterfall. The water dripping splashed onto the face, as if it was hit by a stone, causing pain.
In the circle, the rice fields were swept into flat ground. All the rice was lost and was ruined.
The angry tribe members shouted, and the wooden spears they held were pointing at the crocodile.
But under the threat of the terrifying crocodile tail, it was unable to get close to it for a while and could not threaten the fierce crocodile.
There are also many wooden spears that are thrown from time to time, and although they hit a lot, they bounce helplessly under its thick hideous scales, causing no damage.
The spear throwing behavior only aroused the giant crocodile's greater ferociousness and caused it to roar even more crazily.
People shouted and crocodile resonated, and sewed water and broken rice flew together!
Ye Qing's heart was filled with anger, and he needed to vent!
He managed to resist fear and nervousness, avoided the mud and water flying from time to time, weighed the wooden spear in his hand, and seized the opportunity...
That's now!
He took two steps suddenly, and the wooden spear in his hand escaped.
Whoosh-
The wooden spear drew a graceful arc, causing a sharp sound of breaking through the air.
Then……
Failed...
It's impossible!
Accompanied by the fierce crocodile's terrifying and violent roar, the wooden spear passed through the open crocodile's kiss and pierced from the fierce crocodile's throat...
This is a sour and refreshing...deep throat!
The scene seemed to be suspended for a moment.
The people who were shouting were all in a silent state of silence.
Those surprised and shocked faces, and those waving bodies with hands and feet were like group portraits of a wax museum.
The only one who is still active is the fierce crocodile in the field.
However, it has changed from a strong man, a ferocious beast that wants to hurt people, to a weak man, a prey waiting to be slaughtered.
Its actions no longer have arrogance and viciousness.
The spear was more than one meter long in its abdomen, and the damage caused was unimaginable.
Due to the pain, the crocodile slid slightly, his long tail swung slowly, but his limbs remained motionless!
The palpitations of eyes also became unconscious. When they slowly closed, tears rolled down from them.
It twitched for a long time and finally stopped moving.
On the scene, the play started again, and the tribe members resumed their movements and started to make noise again.
However, the shout of fear turned into a cheer of joy.
Taikang ran over excitedly, threw Ye Qing high, caught him, and threw him up...
I was so happy that I couldn't say extra words, I only knew how to yell repeatedly:
"My son, Qing, six years old to kill the dragon!"
"My son, Qing, six years old to kill the dragon!"
...
At this time, Taikang was as happy as a child.
The tribesmen around were also infected by Taikang, and the cheers were guided to gradually form a unified shout:
"Qing, six years old to kill the dragon!"
"Qing, six years old to kill the dragon!"
So the whole cheer turned into:
Taikang leads: "My son!"
The clan members say harmony: "Qing, slaying the dragon at the age of six!"
The crocodile is dead, and Ye Qing's fear and nervous mood have also relaxed.
He felt a little embarrassed to be raised by Taikang and accept the cheers of his tribe members.
However, when thinking of his “deification” strategy, this kind of cheer should be more and more good.
Suddenly, his pupils contracted.
While his body was falling, he pulled out the wooden spear that Taikang had inserted back on his back because he raised his hand high.
While the body was thrown up, he stepped on Taikang's arm with force and threw the wooden spear out with force.
Where is the wooden spear going, outside the ridge of the field.
Outside the ridge behind the tribe, a crocodile of the same size rushed out silently and quickly.
The closest person is less than two meters away!
And the tribe members were completely unaware of it.
now!
Whoosh!
Before the crocodile hurts people, the wooden spear breaks through the air.
laugh!
The wooden spear comes from the eyes to the brain!
The ultimate kill!
Then……
This crocodile slid for a distance and then remained still.
it……
Dead, silent!
Dead, can't rest in peace!
Its eyes could not be closed, and the wooden spear that penetrated deep into the eyebrow was still trembling.
The cheers of the tribe members stopped abruptly.
Seeing Ye Qing killing another crocodile instantly, Taikang was already incoherent:
"My son, Qing, six years old...two dragons...slaughter...slaughter..."
The tribe members were used to following Taikang to cheer. They would shout whatever Taikang shouted. At this time, Taikang was also led by Taikang.
So the cheers turned...
"Qing, the six-year-old two dragons kill!"
"Qing, the six-year-old two dragons kill!"
...
Ye Qing listened to the new cheers of his tribe members, and he felt like the gangsters in martial arts novels.
Six-year-old Two Dragons Slaughter!
Tsk, it’s quite exciting to read.
So, the farm work was not done anymore, and the tribe members carried two crocodiles back to the tribe in a mighty manner.
Ye Qing was forced to "riddle" again and rode on Taikang's neck.
Taikang led the leader, and his tribe members surrounded Ye Qing like a parade, carrying the crocodile, shouting "slogans" while walking.
They shouted Ye Qing's name and Ye Qing's achievements.
Ye Qing's achievements shocked them very much.
They began to worship Ye Qing.
Since the tribe has been passed down, only one person has killed crocodiles alone, and that is the ancestor of their Feng family.
Ye Qing not only killed the crocodile with his own strength, but also killed two.
This surpasses the ancestors.
They did not reduce their admiration because Ye Qing was young.
On the contrary, slaying dragons at the age of six has made their admiration stronger.
Looking at the clan members who were trapped in fanaticism, Ye Qing sighed very much.
A simple person!
