Chapter 159

The next day, Lieyi went hunting as usual. In fact, with the ability of strong wing, he and Chen Jia can eat enough prey once they go out, but the tribe has tribal rules. Males need to go out in teams often, and half of the prey they fight back needs to be handed over to the tribe for distribution to the old, the weak, the sick and the disabled.

This reminds Chen Jia of these so-called old, weak, sick and disabled.

In Chen Jia's opinion, the old, weak, sick and disabled in the mouth of the winged lion family are actually similar to themselves, and some are even better than themselves. However, they were forced to stay in the tribe because they were too old to go hunting. These people have no output and have been consuming the food materials of the tribe, so they appear "weak". In fact, in Chen Jia's opinion, there are too many places they can contribute.

Chen Jia schemed in her heart and went to find the patriarch.

The patriarch welcomed Chen Jia's arrival very much. Yesterday, Bligh had told him how Chen Jia healed the Sith. At this time, Chen Jia was almost comparable to the high priest in his eyes. You know, no matter which tribe, people who can heal patients can be treated like gods.

The patriarch almost praised Chen Jia to heaven, which made Chen Jia a little embarrassed. He said, "patriarch, I came to you today to discuss another matter."

"You say." look at the patriarch's strength, almost needless to mention, he can make a decision and agree.

Chen Jia said, "I want to teach you to store food materials."

"Store ingredients?"

"Yes, I know some ways to keep food materials for a long time. For example, ordinary fresh meat can be preserved for months or even a year if pickled."

The patriarch "rubbed" to stand up from the stone bench, his eyes glowed, and his mouth trembled and said, "a few months or even a year?"

"Yes, but I need people."

The winter on the barren mainland is extremely long. There has been heavy snow all over the sky for four or five months. Every winter, there are freezing and starvation in the tribe. This year, we built wooden houses in the Chen Jiajiao society, which is enough to resist wind and snow. If we can ensure sufficient food materials, we can almost imagine the happiness of this winter!

The patriarch made a quick decision: "yes, I'll immediately ask the males to stop hunting and fully support you!"

"No." Chen Jia hurriedly stopped him, "I just need some old and weak people in the tribe who still have spare strength."

"What can they do?" the patriarch did not look down on them, but in his impression, they had dedicated their lives to the tribe, and at this time they could only wait for the support of the tribe.

Chen Jia said with a smile, "I'm born to be useful. As long as I put it in the right place, any kind of people can give full play to their strengths."

Although the patriarch didn't understand this, he agreed and said, "then do as you say."

The patriarch immediately asked Bligh to get something.

There is a big drum in the patriarch's house, which is made of top-grade cowhide stretched on a thick bamboo tube. It is painted with strange totem. Of course, they don't call it drum, but Ming. That's what the patriarch called Brenner.

He held Ming in his arms, walked among the tribes and began to knock and call: "the old and weak people quickly gather in front of the sacrificial platform, and the old and weak people quickly gather in front of the sacrificial platform..."

There is a huge open space in the tribe. A sacrificial platform has been built in the middle. People in the wasteland believe in gods. Every time they come back from hunting, they will leave fresh meat on the sacrificial platform. These things are sacred in their eyes. Even three-year-old children know that they can't touch anything on the sacrificial platform at will.

The leader of the tribe called everyone to the sacrificial platform if anything happened.

Before long, many old and weak people had gathered in front of the sacrificial platform, and some females who had nothing to do at home also came to join in the fun.

The patriarch and Chen Jia stood at the front side by side. Yesterday, Chen Jia's treatment of Sith had spread, and everyone appreciated Chen Jia a little more. This is not true. Several females who came to the door with Al yesterday were present today and took the lead in expressing support for Chen Jia.

The patriarch said, "next, Chen Jiahui will teach us how to store food. After what he said, the fresh ingredients in our family can be preserved for a long time. When winter comes, we don't have to worry about food anymore."

As soon as this was said, everyone cheered.

The head of the clan calmed the agitation of the people and said, "listen to Chen Jia's orders in all matters."

Chen Jia then began to speak: "please stand on the right side of the open space if you can use your strength. There is no need to force. For those who have no strength, we have other things to do."

As soon as the voice fell, the team soon divided into two groups. The team on the right is obviously younger and taller. Chen Jiahuan looked around for a week and caught a glimpse of an old man - actually, he was only in his thirties, with sparse hair. In this era, he can already be called an old man.

The old man's name was Cooper. Chen Jia came up and reminded him, "Mr. Cooper, you're old. You'd better go to the team on the left."

Cooper was arrogant when he was young. He would not be old when he was old. If the patriarch hadn't stopped him, he even wanted to go hunting with the warriors every day! Cooper said angrily, "I'm not old. I still have a lot of strength to make it!"

Chen Jia couldn't laugh or cry. After thinking about it, he said, "you are a more qualified person in the tribe. I want you to lead the team on the left. You know, those who are really weak still need a backbone!"

As soon as he said this, Cooper was immediately happy, patted his chest and promised, "OK, I'll go to the left."

Alas, the people here are really simple and easy to coax -- Thought Chen Jia.

That's a good team.

Chen Jia asked Cooper to organize the team on the left to collect a large number of red fruits on the mountain, which he found in the forest before and can extract salt. Then he took the man on his right to a place he had long sought.

This is a sloping land in the west of the tribe. Because it is not sunny and uninhabited, it is a deserted place. According to the method of encyclopedia, Chen Jia circled the scope and said: "next, we need to dig out a cellar here. The so-called cellar is an underground open space. With the help of underground air flow and temperature, it can help us store food materials at low temperature for a long time."

We don't quite understand what they say, but we can still understand when digging. At the order of Chen Jia, everyone began to work in full swing. Because there was no shovel, Chen Jia had let people find wood to make them into spades. This dull tool was very powerful in the hands of the winged lions. The old and the weak in the clan usually can't find a place to use. At this time, they finally have the opportunity to give full play to their waste heat. In just one day, dozens of females work in turn and dig considerable underground holes.

Since this cellar is shared by the whole family, it can't be small. Chen Jia asked them to continue digging. Then she took another group of people and found a new and suitable place to continue construction. It's enough for the two large cellars to act at the same time.

The cellar not only needs to be dug, but also goes through various waterproof, ventilation and reinforcement processes. These things are complicated. Fortunately, Chen Jia has an encyclopedia and gropes while working.

For Chen Jia's busy day, although Lieyi is dissatisfied, he also knows that this is a major event related to the tribe and dare not stop it. He can only press the grinding little female in his arms and spoil her every night to solve his lovesickness.

So that every time Chen Jia gets up three times a day, she can get up and supervise the work outside.

Later, Chen Jia wanted to find something for lie Yi, so she asked him to carve a wooden man according to what he said. Strong wing took him as a child and thought he was for fun. He spoiled him and carved a wooden man back, which was covered with patterns.

Chen Jia was speechless, so she had to put the wooden man away and ask him to carve another one. It must be smooth and traceless. He has other uses.

On this day, Chen Jia looked at the cellar as usual, but she met the high priest here.

The high priest was standing nearby. No one disturbed his work. It was obvious that he was waiting for him.

Chen Jiashang said politely, "hello."

The high priest quickly said politely, "I want to ask you something."
