Chapter 22 The tribal joys and sorrows are not connected
Chapter 22 The joys and sorrows of the tribe are not the same
Lu Yao read [Grandma's] plea over and over again to confirm that he understood it correctly.
The sea monster is indeed the child of a woman from the Donghe tribe.
[Grandma] also explained the reason.
Among babies born in the Donghe tribe, female babies will grow up healthily. However, if a male baby is born, the baby will grow scales and a tail in a short period of time, become rickety, and gradually turn into a lizard-like water monster.
Sea monsters are extremely powerful and their scales are indestructible. Their bodies will continue to grow and shed layers of skin until the end of their short lives.
Their disadvantage is that they cannot be kept away from water sources.
As for the reason, the Donghe tribe is not clear. They only say that it is a gift from the gods, giving birth to sea monsters so that they can rule the entire water area.
Not long ago, a group of sea monsters collectively suffered from an unprecedented disease.
The Donghe tribe cannot be cured, and they are watching helplessly as the mighty and majestic sea monsters in the past are now lying sickly in the water. Except for the three dead heads, some sea monsters have turned up on the surface of the water with their bellies and mouths.
He was frothing and looked like he wouldn't live long.
This also made Lu Yao a little bit sad.
The sea monster in front of the stage: strong body, thick skin, oppressive appearance, domineering sidebar.
The sea monster behind the scenes: a tragic life experience, a painful fate, a weak and sluggish body, and riddled with diseases.
The sea monster that seems to be invincible in the water is not only the result of the mutation of the baby boy, but also encounters the problem of difficulty in medical treatment.
In desperation, [Grandma] had no choice but to come over and seek help from the local gods.
That is Lu Yao.
This request from Lu Yao was somewhat futile.
Unfortunately, I am not a medicine god.
Miracles only create various natural phenomena and disasters, but there is no such thing as a great cure.
There are more than 300 people in the Garlic tribe, including the shaman, and there are three pharmacists in total. They are in short supply of treating patients, let alone treating sea monsters.
[Grandmother] just prayed silently outside the temple and confessed to the gods. She did not tell the prophet or shaman this kind of secret that was related to the survival of the tribe.
Lu Yao thought about it.
There are many reasons why sea monsters get sick. The water is too cold or too hot, there are too many aquatic plants, the impact of climate change... it may even be the birth of an infectious disease exclusive to sea monsters.
For now, all he can say is that there is nothing he can do to help.
The development of Donghe tribe's civilization was not ideal, but the Garlic tribe ushered in another landmark event.
[Writing gradually became popular among the Garlic tribe, and the Garlic tribe learned to use names.]
With this reminder, Lu Yao noticed that the names of the little people in the Garlic Tribe appeared one after another on their heads.
[Prophet] Call the farmers.
[Shaman] is called the Hunting Cang.
The Pigfish Brothers finally have their own names.
Those who love wild boars are [Heroes] Headhunters, and those who like fish are [Heroes] Yuzao.
There are two common surnames in the Garlic tribe: farmers are all surnamed Nong, and hunters are all surnamed Hunter.
In addition, a small number of fishermen who appeared because of fishing nets were named Yu. The two carpenters were named Mu, the pharmacist was named Yao, and the salt people were named Yan.
In short, the name of each person in the Garlic Tribe is based on their own occupation.
It can also be seen here that although [Prophet] and [Shaman] are leaders of the tribe, their status as leaders is not a specialized position outside of work. Their respective jobs are actually farmers and hunters, and they usually perform related labor.
The use of words turns specific names into unique symbols for each villain. The birth of names allows pixel villains to have more complex self-thinking and close communication.
Lu Yao noticed that two villains were exchanging ideas.
One of them is called Nong Yu and the other is called Yu Huan.
Nong Yu asked: "The food in the farmland, wheat and potatoes, can be planted in the spring and harvested in the winter. But is the same true for the fish in the water?"
Yu Huan said: "The fish in the water will grow by themselves, just like wheat."
"So if you plant fish in the soil in spring, will they grow more in summer?"
"Of course not. Fish can only live in water."
Suddenly an exclamation mark appeared on Yu Huan's head: "What you said seems to make sense. Although fish cannot grow in the soil, if you create a 'water farm' by the river, you can raise the fish in it, just like
Just like harvesting wheat, you can catch a lot of fish directly in the fall."
"You have to spread fertilizer."
Nong Yu said: "Fish eat bugs, and there are many bugs in the farmland. You can feed these bugs to the fish, and they will grow bigger and bigger."
"Yes!"
The two villains suddenly became excited and ran to the river together and began to explore.
Lu Yao turned his attention to a little man named Muhao.
Muhao is one of the two carpenters of the tribe. He is cutting wood in the forest at this time.
The tools of the Garlic Tribe are still mainly based on wood and stone, so carpenters use stone axes, and it takes a lot of effort to cut down trees. But at this time, Muhao is enjoying himself, walking alone, with helpers doing the work for him
.
After a period of exploration, he found a good way.
Muhao found a small animal called a beaver by the river. Beavers would chew trees and build nests. He raised beavers with wheat and went out to cut trees every day to bring out these small animals.
This kind of route seems to be a skewed skill tree, but it is very effective in a short period of time.
There are many more situations like the above.
Lu Yao could feel at this time that the Garlic Tribe had finally come out of its primitive state of confusion, and everyone began to think about how to live better and work more efficiently.
While Lu Yao was observing the appearances of all living beings, Isabel, who had not been heard from for a long time, finally sent a message back.
She found the Bedou tribe in the southern desert.
But contrary to the rumors, there are only 32 people left in the Bedou tribe. The oasis where they have lived for generations has also been occupied by a group of desert monsters. The Bedou tribe fled almost all the way in the direction of the Garlic tribe.
After losing the oasis, their population plummeted, leaving only less than one-tenth of their peak population. Due to their hasty escape, the Bedou tribe did not take away any belongings and just rode on camels.
When Isabel met them, the Bedou tribe was encountering a group of desert bandits.
She described: "The bandits were dressed in simple black clothes with linen clothes underneath, and were carrying cloth bags. They were from the Yanchi tribe."
Isabel, the apostle, took action and killed half of the robbers. The rest were captured and brought over, a total of 11 people.
The little men from the Yanchi tribe disguised as robbers were strung up by ropes like candied haws, and they walked dejectedly behind Isabel.
[Because of the persuasion of Apostle Isabel, the Bedou tribe joined the Garlic tribe.]
[The Garlic tribe and the Bedou tribe merged, and their faith was slightly improved.]
The population rose to 347 people.
The faith value increased by 120 points, the total faith value returned to 160 points, and the miracle reserve was sufficient again.
Lu Yao's eyes were fixed on the two kinds of livestock brought by the Bedu tribe.
