Chapter 228: Retreat the Enemy

"Okay!", watching the only shot one enemy, completely shocking the opponent. The young man hiding in the grass couldn't help but feel a little excited. Fortunately, another bow-holder quickly pulled him to avoid being discovered.

"Sir, what do you think?" The leader looked at the situation in front of him anxiously, but there was no way, because he didn't know how many people in the tribe were hiding in the surrounding grass. According to the information they had explored before, the hunting team in the tribe should be in the northwest direction of the tribe's base and didn't know what to do, and there should be only two young men left in the tribe to protect the safety of the tribe. However, judging from the current situation, it was not the same. In addition to the two people in front, at least a few people were hiding in the surrounding trees, not knowing where they were.

"Retreat!" said the man known as the adult, walking down the mountain without looking back, leaving only the leader in place.

"Sir, sir!" The leader shouted quietly behind him anxiously, not daring to be too loud or take action. After all, even a mid-stage Yaoguang cultivator would be shot through with an arrow, let alone a person who is only in the Qi Refining Realm.

However, the adult did not stop at all, and the leader did not dare to continue shouting until he could not see the shadow of the adult. The leader gritted his teeth and cursed helplessly, "Damn it, withdraw." Although he was very unwilling, he knew that continuing to consume was not a solution, and it would only increase the consumption of the front battlefield. Since there would be no more melee battles, it would be the best way to retreat as soon as possible.

"Beep beep beep beep—" A short and gentle whistle sounded, floating in the forest, far and near, high and low, seemed to be close to the ears, but it was difficult to find traces. This was the sound of the retreat of the forces in the town, and it could transmit the whistle as far as possible to the farther place without revealing its position.

Hearing the whistle, the forces hidden in the grass did not relax at all, and took care of each other, retreating towards the mountain one after another. The man who was nailed to the tree before also took the body back under the cover of others.

Similarly, the tribe's people did not relax at all. The evacuation of the elderly, weak, women and children of the tribe continued. The members responsible for the defense also tightened the bows in their hands, without relaxing at all. The people hiding in the grass also tightly held the bows in their hands, and did not dare to shoot arrows, for fear of exposing their positions. Because they did not know whether the opponent was actually evacuating. Although they knew that the whistle was the whistle of the opponent's evacuation during many battles, there was a precedent for the tribe's people to be suddenly attacked when they relaxed their vigilance for a period of time after the whistle was blown.

This situation continued to be a stalemate until the front line, after the people from the forces in the town evacuated, the members of the tribe hunting team cleared the battlefield and confirmed that there were no lurking people returning to the tribe.

When the hunting team returned to the tribe and knew that the tribe was attacked, they couldn't help but feel scared. They did not expect that the forces in the town had such an idea, nor did they expect that they would do this. After all, in the previous confrontation, the forces in the town had never launched an attack on the tribe's garrison, because those who wanted to bypass the tribe's alert and attack the tribe, it would take a long way to go, and the distance was very dangerous, so that the forces in the town would not consider this issue at all, and the tribe would not think about this issue, and the trouble would happen when almost neither of them would be considered. As long as this trouble occurred once and was not resolved, it would not happen again, nor would it happen again.

"I was too careless, I really didn't expect them to come from this direction." When the tribe hunting team cleared the battlefield near the tribe, Zhou Wutian, Hu Yu and the tribe leader stood on the cliff eastward of the tribe's base. Looking at the traces of the forces in the town climbing the cliff, Hu Yu couldn't help but sigh. Because on these climbing traces, it can be seen that the people responsible for attacking the tribe paid a heavy price to avoid the tribe's alert and approached the tribe's base near the tribe's base. At the climbing position, you can also vaguely see the blood and broken clothes left by some people who failed to climb, but no other things were left, and they probably had taken away.

"You underestimate the temptation of Fangshan prey on them." Zhou Wutian said, "As long as the prey in this Fangshan can help them strengthen, they will never give up using any means."

"Thanks to you this time, if you hadn't brought people back and gave me a clever memory, I'm afraid the tribe would have suffered a catastrophe at this time." The leader said gratefully.

"Yes, if you hadn't considered this, I'm afraid this time would be really troublesome." Hu Yu said, "This time we faced almost twice the number of enemies that were the most before. Many of them were mixed with Qi Refining Realm, and many powerful weapons were also taken out. I just recovered and could not use my full strength. If they were attacked from the tribe's base at this time, I would be really exhausted."

"Everything is still under control, but it must be accelerated." Zhou Wutian said, "The matter of eliminating cobalt stone and making poisonous arrows will start together. In addition, I will help you build some houses and fortifications, and some techniques will be taught to you slowly. After the arrangements here are almost done, I will go to the town to see what is going on."

"Okay, after all, I have been in the palace and have never come out to walk around. I don't know much about what you want to know. You may learn more about it by yourself." Hu Yu said, "As for tribe affairs, you don't have to worry. The leader and I can handle it."

"Yes, don't worry, the tribe is really better than before when you come back." The tribe leader on the side also agreed.

"You two have a tacit understanding, and they sing and reconcile, and they will wrap me in a few words." Zhou Wutian said.

"You said this very well," Hu Yu said, "I am also an outsider. I am similar to your situation, so why would I surround you?"

"Yes, you're thinking too much." The tribe leader said quickly.

"The intentions of both of you are really too obvious." Zhou Wutian said, "One song and one harmony is what I meant to throw the tribe to me, and I said it wasn't around me?"

"How can you be considered a circumference? You can get the power of a tribe without much cost. Others can't eat such a pie, but they can't eat it." Hu Yu said.

"This pie doesn't taste that easy," said Zhou Wutian. "Enter the town and re-hit a force. Even if it's slower, it's higher, and the speed will develop faster."

"Please stay. Although our tribe has a low level of development, we will never let you down." The leader said, "If you are willing to take over as the leader of the tribe, you can take over directly now. After all, you are qualified to become the leader."

"I'm not very interested in this position. Besides, an outsider has no great achievements and takes over such a position, so it's probably difficult to convince everyone." Zhou Wutian said, "But don't worry, I won't leave like this, because the tribe is kind to me first."

"I know you don't care about this position, but if you want to develop a tribe, what capacity do you plan to participate in?" Hu Yu said, "It is not a stable way to participate in it as an outsider after all, and you will inevitably encounter trouble."

"Yes." The leader nodded and said.

"If a tribe wants to develop, it will definitely not be able to continue to use the tribe's things." Zhou Wutian said, "If you want to develop into a town, you need to do it like a town."

After the battlefield was cleaned up, Zhou Wutian's ability was basically recognized by the hunting team members, and being recognized by the tribe was only a matter of time.

Under Zhou Wutian's guidance, a large number of light bows and poisonous arrows were created, while Hu Yu took a few people to the mountains and forests to teach them how to use and distinguish poisonous arrows. Because the types of poisonous arrows are divided into several types, poisonous arrows with different effects for different types of prey. After Zhou Wutian taught the methods of preparing these poisonous arrow herbs and the herbs they used to the picking team, Zhou Wutian didn't have to worry about this matter at all.

Afterwards, Zhou Wutian used warm boiling and acupuncture to help members of the tribe who were excessively eroded by cobalt stones to remove some cobalt stones. In combination with Zhou Wutian's herbs, the speed of their wound healing was significantly accelerated.

Because poisonous arrows improve hunting efficiency, more manpower is freed up in the tribe to accomplish more things. One of the iconic events is the naming. After discussions between Zhou Wutian and Hu Yu, the leader and the members of the hunting team, it was unanimously decided to take the character "Fang" of "Fangshan" as the surname of the tribe. At the same time, the tribe no longer has the name of the tribe, but uses "Fangcheng" as the name of the tribe. In other words, from then on, this tribe will no longer exist and replace it with "Fangcheng". The former tribe leader chose "Fangqiang" as his name, which means that Fangcheng is strong and prosperous, and he also became the first city lord of Fangcheng. Zhou Wutian and Hu Yu became the elders of Fangcheng.

Although it is called "Fangcheng", it is still like a tribe in general, and many things still need to be built slowly.

With the improvement of hunting efficiency, only three or four people are needed to hunt at a time, which can meet the food requirements of the entire tribe. At the same time, under the guidance of Zhou Wutian, a circle was built to raise goats, boars and bisons caught in captivity to be used as food reserves.

Then, we organized forces to clean up the ground, trees and shrubs around the tribe, making the tribe less messy. Then, according to Zhou Wutian's design, a simple wooden house with beam and column structure was built in the tribe to replace the originally simple and rough mud-mixed house.

However, because the tribe is located in this area with little rainfall every year, even if it rains, it will rain lightly and will stop quickly. The drinking water in the tribe is basically satisfied by the stream flowing down from the mountains. Therefore, the construction of the wooden house does not consider the tolerance for long-term rainfall, but rather takes the defense against wild animals and dangers as the main consideration.

The construction of the house did not bring down the original house to rebuild it, but built houses built on the west side of the tribe and the side close to the mountain. The newly built houses were arranged in sequence from south to north according to a pattern facing south. At the same time, a two-meter-wide road crosses north and south, connecting the north and south of the residence.

While building the house, a fence surrounding the tribe's resident was slowly built, distinguishing the inside and outside of the tribe.

At the same time, outposts and roads are being carried out in sequence, and defensive fortifications built along the mountains are also being built together. Various fixed large crossbows, arrows, catapults and other defensive weapons have also been built under the guidance of Zhou Wutian, and are distributed around the tribe to strengthen the tribe's defense.

In addition to the changes in architecture, some things in the tribe are also changing. The original situation where only wooden tools are containers no longer occurs. The fired pottery began to gradually enter people's vision, and more edible wild vegetables and herbs for curing diseases were also collected.

All kinds of things in the tribe are slowly developing, and it is still a while before they are fully completed, but in general, they are gradually taking shape as a town.

Zhou Wutian did not intend to wait for the tribe to end development here, because he had given many things to the people in the tribe. Even if he stayed, the tribe could not provide more manpower to complete more things. Therefore, after arranging these, Zhou Wutian was ready to set off and enter the town to take a look. On the one hand, he fulfilled his promise to Hu Yu, and on the other hand, he wanted to understand the many situations in the southern part of the northern region.

"There is basically nothing to worry about in Fangcheng's affairs." Zhou Wutian said, "I will leave the tribe to go to the town tonight, and I will leave Fangcheng's affairs to you."

"Don't worry, the second elder, we will definitely work hard. When you come back, you will definitely see a real Fangcheng." The city lord Fang Qiang nodded and responded.

"This is where my son is. Although it is not far away, it will take some time. In addition, there are some soul stones and gold you can use on the road." Hu Yu handed a small bag to Zhou Wutian. "The comparison between soul stones and gold in our Fang Kingdom is 1 to 10,000, so you must pay attention to it when you are away. It is best to find a place to change it to copper coins and iron coins first, which is safer."
