Chapter 29 Building the City Wall
After the beast attack that night, the tribe's defenses became much tighter, but it was probably because the beasts were too damaged last time and did not come again. The tribe survived the winter safely in the following days.
Throughout the winter, there was a sad and depressing atmosphere in the tribe.When the last snow that fell in the winter melted, when the green shoots came out, no doubt, the vigor and vitality of the spring day released all the people in the tribe from the atmosphere of surprise.
"Spring is here!" Ji Yu said excitedly to Feng Shao, with a bright smile on his face.
Feng Shao followed Ji Yu out of the door, looked at the red sun that had just risen in the sky, heard Ji Yu's words, he turned his head, the morning light reflected on Ji Yu's face, reflecting his bright and comfortable smile, Feng Shao I was also infected by him unconsciously, and there was a smile on my face.He raised his hand to pick up a strand of long hair on Ji Yu's shoulder, and played with it in the palm of his hand. Looking at Ji Yu's side face, his eyes were gentle, "Yes! Spring is here!" Feng Shao, who had been lying on the bed for a whole winter, finally Well, Ji Yu finally allowed him to act freely.Although it feels good to be cared about by Ah Yu, but anyone who is bored in the house all winter will be bored and moldy.
Although the fresh and active atmosphere of spring has driven away the depression in winter, people still have worries in their hearts, and the sense of urgency in their hearts will not dissipate, especially Feng Shao.That battle shocked him greatly, and it was also this battle that made him mature. He really abandoned the last bit of leisurely and peaceful mentality of being a modern person. Possibly a better life here than any of the little ideas he had come up with.
"Ah Yu, I'm going to find the patriarch." After breakfast, Feng Shao told Ji Yu and went to the patriarch's house.When he arrived at Feng Zhen's house, he was talking with Feng Tu, probably also discussing the tribe's affairs.
"Xiao Fengtu." Feng Zhen was talking, and he happened to see Feng Shao with a casual glance.Because Feng Tu turned his back to Feng Shao's direction, he turned his head to see Feng Shao after the sound of Feng Zhen, and greeted him.Feng Shao's tone was quite respectful, "Sacrifice to the Lord."
Feng Tu nodded, "What's the matter for coming so early?"
"I'm looking for the patriarch for something." While speaking, he glanced at Feng Zhen, thought of something, paused, and then continued, "It's about the tribe."
As soon as he said this, Feng Tu understood, and Feng Zhen consciously became serious.In the end, Feng Tu was considerate, so he spoke first, "Sit down first." Feng Zhen originally planned in the same way, but it was a step too late, now that Feng Tu has spoken, it will save him trouble.
After all, it was still early spring, and there was still a bit of cold air. Feng Shao ran all the way and blew some cold wind. Feng Tu asked him to sit down, but he didn't refuse. He sat by the fire according to his words, and his body warmed up immediately.
"You said you wanted to tell me about the tribe. What is it?" Feng Shao was not in a hurry, but Feng Zhen was. Every time this kid asked him for something, it always brought him unexpected joy, no wonder He was curious, and really wanted to know what good idea Feng Shao came up with.
Feng Shao glanced at him, he really didn't have much respect for Feng Zhen, the patriarch who often teased him, instead he had a kind of friendliness and acted more casually.Feng Shao was actually dissatisfied with Feng Zhen's title of 'Xiao Feng Shao', and this dissatisfaction was directly reflected in his actions, so he saw and heard Feng Zhen's eagerness, and his words and actions also expressed dissatisfaction. Even more so, he pretended not to be in a hurry.Feeling his body warming up, Feng Shaofang said slowly: "The tribe was attacked by a herd of beasts at night in winter, and the consequences were disastrous. The patriarch and the priest must have been worried about this for a long time."
Feng Shao's words were affirmative, and these words were indeed true. Feng Tu nodded reservedly when he heard the words, but Feng Zhen was full of joy that could not be concealed, this kid, he really guessed right.After getting Feng Tu's response, Feng Shao continued to talk. As for the patriarch who seemed thick-skinned and unscrupulous to him, and now seemed a little silly, he just ignored it.
"I am also worried about what happened to the tribe. I am not afraid of ten thousand, just in case. What if this kind of thing happens again in the future, or the enemy is stronger. What's more, the non-orcs and young people in the tribe Cubs are not suitable for fighting, and if there is a slight negligence, the consequences will be unimaginable."
Feng Zhen took what Feng Shao said deeply, but what he wanted to hear was not this, so he stared straight at Feng Shao, "I know what you said, just say it if you have any way." His words sounded like that impatient elder just.
The two of them stared with wide eyes, you look over, I look over, Feng Tu doesn't care, they are very leisurely and lively.Facing Feng Zhen's face, Feng Shao was tired of looking at it, so he might as well finish his work early and go back to see his family, Ayu, what is the competition with him here? The self-conscious Feng Shao decided to let go of teasing Feng Zhen, "One Word, defense."
"Defense?" Of course Feng Zhen understood the meaning of defense, but since Feng Shao said so, it must be different from the usual method used by the tribe.
Feng Shao's half-spoken words aroused a lot of interest in Feng Tu's heart, his body was slightly more upright than just sitting, his head leaned forward slightly, waiting for Feng Shao's next words.
Feng Zhen's doubts came easily and clearly, and only Feng Zhen who was very familiar with him noticed Feng Tu's subtle movements. Compared with Feng Zhen, Feng Tu's indifferent and quiet temperament is more highlighted.
"In my opinion, the method of tribal patrolling is desirable but not safe enough. The perimeter of a tribe basically relies on natural protection, and there is no barrier to separate it from the surrounding area. The area that the orcs have to take care of when patrolling is too wide and their energy is limited, so it is inevitable that there will be omissions ; The second is that the openness around the tribe makes the danger even greater. These problems need to be solved as soon as possible. After a long time of hard thinking, I have a solution." Feng Shao paused for a while, it wasn't because he was trying to trick him, It was because he had to say a new word next, so he had to slow down to give the two of them time to react.Feng Shao didn't pause for a long time, just before Feng Zhen couldn't help urging, "Build the city wall."
Feng Shao gave his solution neatly, then stopped and waited for the two to digest.
"City wall." Feng Zhen lowered his head in thought, and slowly repeated these two words in his mouth. He knew the wall, and he could vaguely guess some of the city wall.
After the two of them thought about it, Qi Qi looked up at Feng Shao, the meaning in his eyes was self-evident.
Explain that Feng Shao has already done this very skillfully, "The city wall, that is, the protective fence, surrounds the tribe with stones and wood, so that only one or a few exits are left, and ordinary beasts cannot easily enter the tribe."
"Your method is indeed good, but it can only guard against some low-level beasts, not necessarily stronger ones." Disappointment is not counted, but this method is really not very good.
"This..." Feng Zhen's words reminded Feng Shao that he almost forgot the specialness of this world.However, no matter how weak this method is, it is still feasible, and it may not be ineffective. After thinking about it, he thought of other remedial methods, "How about this, put two layers of protection, and transplant the outside of the river to grow. Red stem trees and thorny vines, surrounded by stone walls. The thorny vines can be used as barriers, and the walls can be built higher and thicker. If you can make some long-range attack weapons such as bows and arrows, you can stand on them and attack. How about this? "
Without Feng Shao asking, Feng Zhen has already confirmed his thoughts, and now he is more interested in what kind of bow and arrow Feng Shao said, "It is indeed feasible, let's talk about the bow and arrow first."
Bow and arrow, huh, he actually doesn't understand, much less know how to do it, it just came to his mind suddenly.Suddenly asked by Feng Zhen, he really didn't know what to say. "This bow and arrow, it is a weapon. If it can be made, non-orcs can also have some guarantee of force. But I am actually just an idea now, and I will definitely tell the patriarch when I have a specific idea later. "
Hearing Feng Shao's words, Feng Zhen was both excited and disappointed at the same time. He didn't have any specific ideas, what are you talking about, but he aroused people's interest but didn't have anything to say? Going too far, being retaliated against, complaining about Feng Shao in his heart, but what he said was a compromise, "That's fine. But you have to remember to research it quickly and tell me! This matter is very important to the tribe." Really important, but he Thinking about improving the strength of non-orcs, not just being so anxious because of curiosity.
After arriving here, there is nothing wrong with Feng Shao, knowing that Feng Zhen should go to the elders to formally discuss this matter, and determine whether to implement it and some procedures.Since he had nothing to do, he didn't stay any longer, took his leave politely and went home.
I have to say that Feng Zhen's work efficiency is extremely high. Feng Shao talked about it on the first day, and he had already discussed it with those elders on the second day. .Not only is the plan fast, but it is not slow to implement.In the morning of the next day, Feng Zhen gathered people from the tribe to announce the matter in the square, and said the arrangements, including the people who transplanted thorny vines, the people who quarried and transported stones, and the people who built walls, how to rotate, and the people who worked At the same time, hunting and gathering, etc. will not be left behind.In short, all the complicated things have been listed one by one, and the arrangement is so orderly and clear, it seems that it has not become so complicated.
The tribe here is bustling with work, and Feng Shao will naturally not escape the arrangement, but he says it's okay.It's okay, but it's really good. Others are very busy. Although they are also in high spirits because of doing these things that benefit the tribe, they are tired after all. He is the only one who is arranged by Feng Zhen because of the bow and arrow. It's a little easier on him than the others.Feng Zhen thought of him so much, and he himself was really relaxed, so relaxed that he sneaked out of his busy schedule, thinking that he wanted to expand the family house and renovate a small courtyard. So crude.
Fortunately, he was doing a good job, Feng Zhen didn't know the thoughts in his heart, otherwise he really didn't know what expression he would have.
