I was a village chief in a primitive society
Chapter 24
The small lake was surrounded by trees, blocking Su Bai's view.
He turned to Yanjiao and the others and said calmly:"Take me in a circle around the small lake."
"good. Yanjiao nodded and took the lead in exploring the road ahead.
While observing, Su Bai came to the high slope on the edge of the lake, which was a small cliff, seven or eight meters high from the lake.
He stood on the edge of the cliff and looked down. He whispered softly:"If we build a few buckets to carry water from here, it seems that we don't have to go to the small lake to carry water.""
"Yeah, why didn’t I think of that. Yanjiao's eyes lit up after hearing this. He thought this method was very good.
Hei Ya showed his fangs and said,"I'll get some more vines when I come back later.""
"No, the efficiency is still too low. It just reduces some dangers and cannot solve the problem of totem warriors carrying water back and forth."Su Bai shook his head and rejected this idea.
"ah?"Yan Jiao and Hei Ya were dumbfounded. Why can't it work?"
"Let's go on."Su Bai didn't explain much.
"All right."Yanjiao had no choice but to lead the way, but in his heart he decided to let the totem warriors fetch water from the cliff in the future.
A group of five people came to a low-lying area covered with weeds.
"Huh? It's very nice here."Su Bai's eyes lit up. He looked at the surrounding terrain and found that the low-lying area was the lowest among the terrain around the small lake.
He thought of the dry terrain of the creek and whispered:"If the creek is opened from here, then the water level of this small lake will be It will definitely drop by half"
"What's the meaning?"Yanjiao and Yanhua are a bit confused.
"It’s okay if you don’t understand, you’ll understand after a while."
Su Bai raised his eyebrows, pointed at the weeds in the low areas, and ordered:"Pull out the grass here, be careful of snakes."
"good."Several people responded in unison.
Flame Horn and Black Fang entered the low-lying area, and the experienced totem warriors were the first to explore the grass and scare away the wild beasts that might be inside.
Su Bai stood aside and watched the four people pulling weeds enthusiastically. From the corner of his eye, he glanced at the bent horned lady, her buttocks covered by the animal skin skirt, which made people have the urge to take a picture.
He quickly calmed down his emotions, glanced around, and measured the low-lying area to the lake. distance between sides
"It's less than ten meters away. Dig a ditch. If there are totem warriors to help dig it, it shouldn't take long."Su Bai glanced at Yanjiao and the others. They were indeed totem warriors. The grass was visibly decreasing.
"Hoho……"
A beast roar came from the distant forest.
When Su Bai heard the beast's roar, he was stunned and frowned:"You can't dig ditches."
The beast's roar reminded him that if he dug a ditch, it would be immediately occupied by other ferocious beasts and the water source would be polluted by the ferocious beasts.
"Water pollution is a big problem now. There are more than a dozen ferocious beasts in the small lake. I don’t want to be covered in parasites."
Su Bai knocked his head with his hand and whispered to himself:"It's a bit unrealistic to filter the water at the source.……"
"Oh my god, all the grass has been pulled out. Yanjiao shouted softly
"oh."Su Bai calmed down and looked at the muddy low-lying area. After pulling out the weeds, the low-lying area was even lower than expected.
He came to the low-lying area, stepped on the muddy mud, squatted down and dug out the mud, using all his strength to I kneaded it and found that there was really a lot of water.
"Someone come and dig down from here until you see sand."Su Bai said with a smile on his face.
He had already figured out how to solve the unrealistic idea of water filtration. Isn't soil the best filter?
"I come."Hei Ya immediately responded, bending his fingers and digging up the soil quickly.
Su Bai looked at Hei Ya's 'dog digging dirt' speechlessly. The style of painting was so novel. The soil was thrown several meters high, and the few people had no choice but to retreat.
"Wu, why are you digging a hole here? Yanjiao asked curiously
"Have you never dug a well?"Su Bai asked in astonishment.
"What is a well? Yanhua asked in a clear voice.
"Well……"Su Bai was at a loss for words and explained helplessly:"It's just digging a hole from the ground to get groundwater for use."
"Dig a hole for water? Yanjiao and Yanhua said in shock.
"It’s not like there’s water wherever you dig a hole."Su Bai sighed.
It is difficult to get water when digging wells in mountainous areas. After all, the geological structure is different. Su Bai asked Hei Ya to dig the hole because there is a lake nearby, and water can seep into the ground.
"So if we dig a well in the tribe, can we get water? Yanjiao asked expectantly
"cannot."Su Bai shook his head ruthlessly. The location of the tribe was very bad. There were relatively few trees around it. This shows how much water content there is in the ground.
"……"The expectant eyes of Yanjiao, Yanhua and the other totem warrior immediately dimmed.
"By the way, did you know that there are plants with holes in the middle?"Su Bai asked expectantly.
He didn't know if there was bamboo in primitive society. If not, he would temporarily give up transporting water to the tribe. He could only ask all the totem warriors to escort the tribe's people to transport water. The one-time transport would be enough. Drink water for several days
"Yes, there are several kinds. Yanhua said in a clear voice.
"Several?"Su Bai was stunned
"Yes, there are hollow trees, red knot trees, and heartless grass."Yanhua skillfully reported the names of three plants.
"Are these three plants nearby?"Su Bai asked eagerly, wanting to see if there was a plant similar to bamboo.
"Only hollow trees were seen nearby, and the other two plants were only found on the ancestral land side. Yanjiao answered.
"too much? How long is it? Is it easy to cut down?"Su Bai asked three times
"There seems to be quite a lot of them, as long as more than twenty knots. Yanjiao frowned and thought, then said:"It's easy to cut. I can break a hollow tree with just a few punches.""
"With more than twenty knots, it is equivalent to ten meters long, which is really great."Su Bai relaxed completely.
Unexpectedly, he really found a plant that could replace bamboo.
