wild trail

Chapter 178
The perimeter of the tribe is surrounded by wooden stakes one by one, and the expansion this time is several times larger than before. If it is fully built to accommodate the two 300 people, there will be no problem at all.

Wang Lang didn't plan to dismantle the old wall. It could be used as an inner city in the future. If the outer city was breached, there would be another barrier to defend it.

The embankment has been completely completed, and the kilometer-long trapezoidal embankment will protect farmland from flooding.

These idle workers were arranged by Wang Lang to irrigate the farmland. More than ten acres of corn will be harvested soon, and the full ears of grain indicate that this season will usher in a bumper harvest.

Although it is not intensive farming, but through watering and fertilizing, the yield has increased a lot compared to before.

Although the scarecrows in the field can scare away some birds, some daring guys will still fly down and steal the crops that people have worked so hard to plant. There will be seven or eight people dedicated to driving these annoying guys away every day.

The four brick kilns were emitting green smoke, and the brick-burning workers kept adding dry firewood to them. The roiling heat wave made the place seem like a furnace, which made brick-burning support the hardest work in the tribe.

The weather on the prairie was unpredictable. In the morning the sky was still cloudless, but after noon, thick clouds rolled in from the east, and the breeze blew the golden millet, setting off waves.

"Lang, it's going to rain!" Lin Huo said looking at the thicker and thicker clouds.

"It's going to rain. It's definitely not a good sign if it doesn't rain for such a long time in this rainy season!" Wang Lang said worriedly.

"Are you worried about the flood?" Lin Huo asked.

Wang Lang nodded and said, "I hope there will be no floods!"

Lin Huo said with a smile: "Even if there is a flood, we are not afraid. We have already completed the construction of the dam, and the side near the river also sent people to tell us that the dam over there has also been completed. We don't need to worry!"

"I hope so!" Wang Lang looked at the sky, as if he was talking to himself.

Lin Huo wasn't paying attention to the changes in the weather. He turned to look at Wang Lang and said, "Are you really going to keep a vigil for those dead clansmen?"

"Well, this is what I have to do." Wang Lang said lightly.

"If you don't eat or drink for two days, what about the tribe's affairs?" Lin Huo asked.

"It's all right. There is nothing serious about the tribe now. It won't affect anything if I guard the spirit for two days?" Wang Lang said with a smile.

Lin Huo sighed and shook his head helplessly.

"Look, this wall will be built soon. After these walls are built, military training will resume. These people are good soldiers!" Wang Lang said, pointing to the busy crowd below. .

Lin Huo looked at these people and said with some emotion: "There used to be only a dozen people in our tribe. I didn't expect that there are so many people now. How time flies! I don't know what happened to the place where we used to live in the north. The patriarch died there!"

"Want to go back and have a look?" Wang Lang said.

Lin Huo shook his head and said, "How can we go back now? It was so difficult for us to pass through that swamp. Going back is impossible."

"It's not impossible." Wang Lang said lightly.

Lin Huo was taken aback when he heard the words. He knew that with the current tribe's ability, it would take a lot of resources to go back there, which was completely meaningless. Looking at Wang Lang, he asked suspiciously, "What do you mean by that?"

"Do you still remember the tin mine we discovered?" Wang Lang said.

Lin Huo nodded, and suddenly asked: "Do you want to mine that tin mine?"

Wang Lang said: "That's right, copper with tin added is much more useful than pure copper. Although the tin we brought back was made into tools, with the increase in manpower, the tools are far from enough."

"But that place is too far away from here!" Lin Huo also understood this truth, but he felt that it would be impossible to mobilize people to go so far just to find tin mines.

"I also know that it's too far away. We can't do anything now, but after the tribes on the waterfront have stabilized, we'll see if there are other ways to get around that swamp. I think we should go west if we have a chance. .” Wang Lang said, looking at the desolate grassland to the west.

"Do you think the new route might be in the west?" Lin Huo asked in surprise.

Wang Lang nodded and said: "I have this guess. The tribe that forced us out of the forest, whether it's clothing or weapons, has many similarities with the Raging Fire Tribe. I suspect that there must be some kind of connection between the two. .”

Lin Huo frowned and didn't think about it, and said: "It seems to be somewhat similar. Could it be that they entered the forest last time to capture slaves?"

"I also think it's possible. If it's really their team to capture slaves, then they definitely have a shortcut to enter the northern forest." Wang Lang guessed.

"If that's the case, if we want to find this way, we have to enter the territory of the Raging Fire Tribe. Is it too risky given our current situation?" Lin Huo asked.

"Not now, at least we have to wait until we have enough food for two rainy seasons. By then, our clansmen have almost trained, and it's time to see who our enemies are." Wang Lang's eyes were a little bit He looked at the west coldly.

"Boom!"

At this time, there was a muffled thunder in the sky, thick lightning pierced the gloomy sky, and the lightning light shone on Wang Lang's face, making him look a bit hideous.

Lin Huo couldn't help but shudder, following Wang Lang for so long, he knew very well that Wang Lang was a man who would take revenge, as long as he was targeting anyone, whether it was a human or a beast, as long as Wang Lang was offended, there would be no good end in the end. The giant python last time is the best example.

Looking at the snake head hanging high, Lin Huo couldn't help but think, how many more human heads will there be?
After the lightning, the big raindrops crackled down, and the raindrops hit the fence and scattered in all directions.

The rain was getting heavier and heavier, and people who were busy outside hurried to the pergola to avoid the rain.

Wang Lang and the other two also walked off the high platform, and stood under the pergola with everyone, looking at the already white world.

"This shitty weather, no matter how you say it, it will fall. If the sheds were not built over the brick kilns, the bricks in these four kilns would have been burned in vain." Bark wiped the rain from his face, and kept cursing the old thief. sky.

Wang Lang ignored Bark's complaints and asked, "Is the brick kiln not affected?"

The tree bark laughed and said: "No, the shed is built very firmly, not a single drop of rain leaked out, the fire will not go out, and the dried wood is kept under the shed, so there will be no problems with the four kiln bricks."

Wang Lang nodded, not saying anything, looking at the pouring rain, his face was full of worry.
