All tribes in the Ba Tribe Alliance and the Gonghuo Alliance are already very familiar with everything about the Ba Tribe, and there has not been much change from last autumn.
However, after the third phase of construction, the courtyard looks bigger again.
The area of the kiln factory has also been expanded a lot due to the expansion of the charcoal kiln and smelting workshop.
Fish ponds, ditches, farmland, etc. have all changed.
In particular, the large-scale reclamation of farmland on both sides of the river has turned the valley, which used to be in a barbaric state, into a standard pastoral village. The farmland on both sides of the river is crisscrossed, and the crops grow so neatly and green that all the clan leaders and leaders are envious.
Both the Gonghuo Alliance and the Ba Nationality Alliance are now reclaiming land on a large scale, but no tribe has such a large farmland area and good crop growth as the Ba Nationality.
Therefore, a group of middle-aged and elderly women, including patriarchs and family observation groups, gathered around Muba, Amu and others to go to the farmland to check the situation. They were amazed at the growth of the Ba tribe's crops and the farmland that was so clean that there were almost no weeds, and they all asked for help in planting.
With experience, some people even began to predict and calculate grain harvests.
It’s not that I don’t know, it’s just that I was shocked.
If all these 800 acres of farmland are collected by autumn, it will be enough to feed the entire Ba people for a year, while other tribes and families can only meet the food reserves for three months to half a year at most.
Among these tribes, the earlier they start farming with the Ba people, the greater the harvest will be.
All tribes believe that as long as they continue to cultivate in this way for three to five years, they will gradually give up collecting food in the wild and use farming to completely solve the food crisis.
While the Gonghuo Tribe and the Ba Tribe Alliance Tribe were still watching the Ba Tribe’s new changes and farmland, the Five Ghost Tribe, Yu Gong Tribe and Youqing Tribe who were brought in for the first time were completely shocked by the Ba Tribe’s situation and could not speak.
surface.
Since they were conquered by Xu Chen or used commercial exchanges to open up contacts, these tribes have also had exchanges with the Gonghuo tribe, and it is no surprise that they have used innovative means of survival such as building houses, farming, raising wild horses, and building rafts.
However, the Ba people who have these sources of innovation are completely different from the Gonghuo people.
The houses are wider and more luxurious, there are more farmlands, the crops grow better, and there are all kinds of wild animals. There are also ponds and ditches, river embankments and dams, kilns and smelting workshops, steps and paths up the mountain, and the Mother Goddess on the mountain.
The temples and everything else all show the grandeur and uniqueness of the Ba people. Although the Gonghuo people have also developed well, compared with the Ba people, they are obviously not on the same level.
The current situation of the Ba tribe was an even greater shock to the shamans who arrived for the first time. They were so stunned that they could not accept it all in a short time. They felt as if they were in a dream.
Especially after I knelt down at the mouth of the valley to worship the Eyes of the Gods, and then went to the mountainside to see the Temple of the Ancient Mother, this feeling became even stronger.
When the three witches from the Yugong clan, the Five Ghost clan, and the poor clan, the old, middle and young, followed the little witch sisters and the old witch from the Gonghuo clan, they stood in front of the Temple of the Mother of God, looking at a statue of the First Mother Goddess holding a baby in her arms at the foot of the mountain.
At that time, the three of them were completely stunned, as if they were half out of their minds. After a long time, the situation came to an end, and then they knelt on the ground, bowed to the statue of their late mother, and sang simple and primitive blessings to express their deepest awe and worship.
To conquer a woman, conquer their heart.
To conquer a man, conquer their stomach.
And if you want to conquer a tribe or nation, then conquer their beliefs.
Witchcraft is the spiritual belief of all tribes.
Xu Chen already understood this from the first time he went to the Wu tribe to participate in the witchcraft conference after time travel. Witches are the core spiritual leaders of all primitive people. As long as these witches surrender, any tribe can be successfully conquered.
And this is the purpose of building this temple of his late mother.
Witches are the most unique group in this era. Although they belong to different tribes, they have the same identity, that is, they are the spokespersons of gods among humans. Therefore, in many cases, witches belong to an existence that transcends race and tribe.
A tribe with witches can easily gather more tribes to join and develop.
Xu Chen, on the other hand, aims to conquer strange races and tribes by constantly subduing witches from other tribes.
This is also a kind of war.
But this kind of war is even more one-sided.
Compared with this magic stick like him, these witches from the primitive era were not at the same level at all. They were almost powerless to parry, let alone fight back.
Therefore, the success of the god-making movement of the Gumu Temple has added a layer of aura of gods to the Ba people, suppressing the group of witches. There is no need for Xu Chen to use force or contracts to threaten and restrain them, and they can recover naturally.
This special group.
And once the witches submit, the ethnic groups and tribes they lead will surrender willingly.
All the tribes arrived early, making this tribal exchange and sacrificial meeting with the largest number of participants in history extremely popular in advance.
Throughout the Ba Valley and on the roads going up and down the mountain, densely packed crowds of active and excited people can be seen everywhere.
The temple of the Mother of God, the wishing pool, the vine fruits on the big tree on the crooked neck, and the milk fruit hillside that is now full of flowers are all filled with foreigners visiting and enjoying themselves.
Even the Wild Wolf Valley, which is rarely visited by people on weekdays, has been visited by a large number of people, and the guides of the Ba tribe have told them about the fireflies here in the summer and the rounding up of wild horses.
The water-retaining dam and the crystal clear stream built around the mouth of the valley also attracted many savages to watch and admire, and some even couldn't help but strip off their clothes and jump in to take a cold bath.
Water is everywhere, but every mountain, water, plant and tree of the Ba people has the aura of divine care. Being able to take a bath in the Ba people will definitely bring you peace and health, make you run faster and be stronger.
Larger, piling is even more powerful.
In addition to these places, the Ba ethnic compound, the enclosed livestock farm, the large group of wild ducks, the courtyard dam and river embankment under construction, etc. are also popular tourist targets. People flow in and out of the entire compound.
It's exactly like a popular tourist area in later generations.
Especially in the current era when there is no privacy or etiquette, these foreign savages are like a tourist group, forming a team to visit scenic spots everywhere inside and outside the compound. If one visit is not enough, they will visit two or three times, and they can visit several times a day.
Stables, sheep pens, pig pens, big eagles, and leopard heads are all popular targets for onlookers.
And all houses, warehouses, even fire pits, and kitchens are lively check-in places.
Each bedroom is clean and tidy. The bed is covered with soft animal skins and linen bedding. There are pottery pots and rattan stools and rattan baskets in the room. Various clothes and needlework are hung in them. On the table are placed
There are pottery cups and pots, and various exquisite decorations are hung on the walls. Some even have cribs or strollers and even all kinds of weird toys.
These things are considered a luxury in other tribes, but among the Ba people, they are personal items that almost everyone can own.
Especially the warehouses of the Ba people, because there are no wooden doors installed on weekdays, only a straw curtain is used to cover them. Therefore, these places are allowed to be visited by these rude savages. Whenever they see these full warehouses of the Ba people,
Everyone who visited was exclaimed, admired, and envied.
Comparing people with others will lead to death, and comparing goods with goods will lead to throwing away.
What's more, facing the Ba tribe, a very rich tribe.
Every warehouse is packed to the brim.
In addition to the countless piles of common animal skins, there are also a large number of woven linen neatly folded and stacked in rattan baskets and wooden frames.
Although it is already March, there are still warehouses full of grain and several large baskets of duck eggs. The house is filled with densely packed salted fish and bacon. There is also a special room filled with large jars of sauerkraut and pickled vegetables.
There is also a room filled with brewed fruit wine, various nuts and preserved fruits and other snacks.
However, although everything of the Ba people is open to foreigners, there is one place that is truly forbidden, and that is Xu Chen's room.
His Majesty the Witch King's room is filled with all kinds of strange and strange things, including diaries, maps and various creative ideas of great value. Therefore, Gu Heju and other four Xu Chen's personal followers became the guardians of the room.
Every day, he wears neat armor and holds bronze swords to guard him alternately. Except for Xu Chen himself, the twin little witches, Ye and a few others, no one can get close.
Moreover, the Ba people also issued a notice to the outside world that all places of the Ba people can be visited, except that the room of His Majesty the Witch King is not allowed to go near. Even the big witch sister solemnly notified all the witches, hoping that they can restrain the people of their tribes and not try to enter the Witch King's room.
His Majesty's room, otherwise he will be expelled from the Ba clan and not allowed to participate in this Mother's Day meeting.
However, the more this happened, the more interested all the foreigners were in Xu Chen's room. However, due to the power of the Ba tribe and the warning of the great witch, they did not dare to step outside the thunder pool. However, there were still a large number of foreign men and women gathering around every day.
Xu Chen was outside Xu Chen's room, pointing inside, full of unparalleled curiosity about this mysterious room.
The novelty and richness of the Ba people not only opened the eyes of all the tribes who came, but also created an unparalleled attraction.
The most attractive thing to women is undoubtedly food and clothing, and the Ba people's spinning and weaving and farmland farming management are goals they are eager to learn.
The most attractive thing to men is undoubtedly the smelting workshop, the horses and the wheelbarrow.
For a group of clan leaders and shamans, the most attractive place is naturally the Temple of the Ancient Mother.
Therefore, although there are many people coming and there are people coming and going everywhere, it seems that the situation is complicated, but in fact these visiting activities are organized into distinct groups.
The tents on the river beach were densely packed according to the tribe's style. Firewood and simple stoves for cooking were also everywhere. The flags of each tribe were planted on the piles of rocks and fluttered in the wind. People came and went, making a loud noise. There was a Ba tribe.
Alliance hunter teams patrol back and forth armed with bows, arrows and spears.
On the river beach, a large group of familiar officers and elite hunters such as Feng, Long and Lei were gathering together to compare war horses and study the issued bronze weapons. They would even occasionally gallop back and forth on the river beach and compete with each other.
All the onlookers cheered loudly.
Compared with the leisurely atmosphere of the participating tribes, the men, women, and children of the Ba tribe are very busy, and almost everyone has assigned tasks.
Xu Chen is responsible for preparing various bronze swords, axes, weapons and agricultural tools for the exhibition. Many of the recently cast knives and agricultural tools have not yet been installed and polished, so he needs to personally lead the team to deal with them as soon as possible.
A group of officers such as Ju and Mo are responsible for coordinating the hunter team of the alliance tribes and maintaining public security and order.
Muba, Amu and others are responsible for receiving and taking care of all tribal chiefs and leader groups, and communicating with them about living arrangements such as eating, drinking, and having sex.
The little witch is responsible for receiving witches from several alliance tribes and leading them to familiarize themselves with the arrangements for the Mother's Day sacrifices.
Ye took a group of children, big and small, and was still responsible for recording and registering.
As for other men, women, old and young, they all performed their duties according to the arrangements to ensure that this Mother's Day would be a perfect success.
In fact, with the successful experience of Mother's Day last year, this year seems to be much easier. Xu Chen does not need to guide and arrange many things at all. Mother, Feng and the little witch can all arrange them properly.
Therefore, Xu Chen also saved more time and energy to handle and arrange this bronze tool exhibition.
