Chapter 109: Let the Deers out to pasture

The matter of raising the height of the wall was not as fast as imagined. This was not only because increasing the height required scaffolding, mud pulling, and a series of other tasks but also due to a major reasonthe group of deer.

When the population was small, it was inconvenient to do anything, even raising deer.

If it was just one or two, feeding them posed no major problem for the Green Sparrow Tribe. However, now there were more than twenty.

Not to mention other things, just the daily fodder consumption was not a small amount. It required at least seven people to harvest grass for them every day to fill the stomachs of these big eaters.

And it had to be a diligent task.

For the current Green Sparrow Tribe, this was undoubtedly a significant burden.

Even though, under Han Cheng's orders, the Eldest Senior Brother and others used small rapeseeds to lure an old deer out and secretly killed it for meat, the pressure on the tribe to provide grass for the deer did not decrease.

Moreover, after the lethargic rabbits from the winter started getting excited in spring due to increased activity, each one opened their appetite. With the continuous birth of rabbit offspring, the demand for grass also increased.

This further increased the burden on the people in the tribe.

After the grass near the tribe was harvested, they had to go to more distant places if they wanted to harvest an equivalent amount of grass again.

This meant more effort and a significant increase in encountering dangerous situations.

Han Cheng was also helpless about this matter. He didn't expect that what was originally a very good thing for the tribe would turn out like this.

Regarding letting them roam freely, he had considered it, but he had been hesitating all along. He had worked hard to coax and deceive the deer back to the tribe. Moreover, the deer pen was built better than where the people of the Green Sparrow Tribe lived. If he released them now, they would gallop away without looking back, leaving behind an empty deer pen, and Han Cheng couldn't find a reasonable explanation for it.Updated from novelbIn.(c)om

After careful consideration, Han Cheng ultimately chose to yield to reality and decided to release the deer.

However, he took a compromise approach. He tied ropes around the deer.

Once again deceived by Han Cheng with his wife's milk, the Deer Lord would occasionally shake its head, lower it, and twist its buttocks to scratch its face with its hind hooves, trying to get rid of this troublesome thing.

Unfortunately, its hooves were only split into two parts and couldn't move freely. The deer couldn't remove the thing Han Cheng tied.

The deer looked at Han Cheng resentfully, constantly rubbing its face against Han Cheng's hand, wanting him to remove this uncomfortable thing. But Han Cheng hardened his heart in the end and didn't untie it.

After about two days, the deer gradually adapted to this contraption.

Han Cheng, Tie Tou, and a few others released the deer.

Only Deer Lord was tied. It was the leader of the deer herd, and as long as it was controlled, the rest of the deer would follow.

Han Cheng realized he was wrong. He shouldn't have come out to release the deer. Damn, this was not releasing the deer; it was the deer releasing him!

It was pure revenge.

Gasping for breath, Han Cheng, whose feet were dragged by Deer Lord, wanted to burst into curses.

Deer Lord was in a great mood. First, it finally got to leave the deer pen where it had lived for half the winter and run freely outside, breathing freely. Second, it could finally retaliate against this annoying two-legged creature.

The deer lowered its head and took a few bites of juicy grass, then turned to look at the breathless two-legged creature holding the rope. Its tail swayed, and it elegantly ran away with its long legs.

Han Cheng couldn't stop it and was dragged along again.

Fu Jiang, the silly dog, thought they were just playing and completely ignored Han Cheng's requests to stop Deer Lord. It ran around, frolicking joyfully from all sides, infuriating Han Cheng to the point of wanting to eat dog meat for dinner.

After running for a while, Deer Lord stopped, wagged its tail, and leisurely ate grass. Its mood was as pleasant as can be.

It now thought having a rope tied to its head was not bad. At the very least, using it to walk the two-legged creature was quite enjoyable.
