Chapter 864 Rice Dream (Three in One(1/2)

"Son of God, let's build a house here!"

The next morning, the sun had already risen in the east, but no sunlight fell on the temporary camp where Han Cheng and others were located. This was because the sun was blocked by the mountains to the east.

There are so many good things here now. When Han Cheng and the others were traveling through the mountains and forests a while ago, they often had to wait until almost noon before they could see the sun.

And it won't be long before the sun, already in its prime when it appears, will set on the other side of the mountain again.

Everyone who went to bed early yesterday, except for the six people who took turns keeping vigil, looked very energetic.

This is partly because I slept well last night, and partly because people feel refreshed during happy events.

After washing and eating in the morning, someone brought up the matter of building houses and courtyards.

When he arrived, Han Chengcheng had already told these people the purpose of his visit.

On the one hand, we are looking for a place where the tribe can rest. On the other hand, after finding such a place, if we have enough time, we can initially build something here.

For example, it can provide a preliminary rest house for many people. It is best to open up a large amount of land here and plant some crops.

Since the people in the tribe experienced the stable life that farming can bring with Han Cheng, they have become more and more fascinated with farming and building houses, and feel that this kind of life is what people should live.

So I am very enthusiastic about what Han Cheng said.

In addition, these people have been away from the tribe for so long, and now they have found the place they want to find. Naturally, they want to build this place as soon as possible, and then rush back to the tribe to tell the good news to everyone in the tribe.

Let them have a good time together.

"Aren't you tired?"

Han Cheng looked at these energetic people and asked aloud.

"Not tired!"

Everyone said one after another, looking eager and eager.

"You can't build directly at this time. You need to have a general understanding of the nearby area before you can start building a house."

Han Cheng said to everyone with a smile.

Building a house has always been a major event, and even now, it cannot be done carelessly. Especially when Han Cheng is planning to build a sub-tribe here, he needs to be extra cautious.

After all, once construction begins, it will be a big project, so you must be careful when choosing a location.

Otherwise, if you get excited at this time, you just find a place and start construction, then you will encounter various problems when the time comes, and then start relocation, etc., which will be too troublesome.

Therefore, it is very necessary to familiarize yourself with this area first and consider as many aspects as possible before making a choice.

Many times, choosing the right direction is more important than working hard.

After listening to Han Cheng's words, everyone thought about it and felt that what the Son of God said was very right.

Han Cheng's original plan to take a good rest here, at least for two or three days, was scrapped. When he met such a group of tribesmen who couldn't wait to start construction and contribute to the tribe, he wanted to take a break.

There are some things I can’t do anymore, and it’s really uncomfortable.

Han Da Shenzi, who was complaining like this, couldn't do anything. He gave the order for everyone to start packing and move along the twisting and winding river to the south.

While walking forward, I still put on the same posture as before when the king asked me to patrol the mountain. From time to time, I would hit the gong in my hand and make a "clang" sound.

Han Cheng's eyes fell more on the river and the places with water near the river, and he kept searching. He was more serious than when he was looking for plants that only grow in the south, and to confirm whether he and others had entered the south.

and expectations.

It can even be described as burning in the heart.

This was also an important reason why he asked everyone to move along the river.

On the one hand, moving along the river is because new branch tribes are inseparable from water sources, and must be established not too far from the river.

By walking along the river in this way, you can better find a suitable place to establish a branch tribe.

On the other hand, Han Cheng is full of expectations!

His expectation is rice!

According to what he knew about early humans, millet, the millet now grown in large quantities by the Qingque tribe, and rice were the first two extremely important food crops for people in the north and south.

Millet quickly replaced millet as an important food crop in the north only after wheat was ground into flour.

As for rice, it has been the main food crop in the south since ancient times.

And with the development of the times and the painstaking research of many scientists, the yield has been higher, and it has been planted on the black soil from the south to the northeast.

For such an extremely important food crop, it would be strange if Han Cheng didn't look forward to it.

Although he was a northerner in later generations, he ate the most pasta and steamed buns, basically three meals a day.

But he can still eat rice, especially the rice fried by Lao Ganma, who has already seen through everything. The food is so good that he can put the steamed buns aside without hesitation.

Especially now that tribes like this only have millet and no trace of wheat, rice has become a food crop that they are extremely looking forward to and longing for.

Once rice can be found, planted and cultivated, and grown on a large scale, the tribe will be able to obtain a food crop with a yield no less than or more than that of millet, and one that can be used as a staple food.

Moreover, the taste of rice is better than that of millet, and more tricks can be made.

Another advantage is that with such a kind of food, even if the millet in the tribe collectively suffers some serious natural disasters, resulting in a large reduction in production or no harvest, with the presence of these rice, it can also greatly reduce the number of millet crops.

Impact on tribes.

Han Cheng didn't know whether there were any chaff or straws preserved from ancient times through archaeological excavations in the vast land of the Land of Abundance, but it was always good to have such an expectation.

After all, people still have to have dreams, what if they come true?

With such a dream, Han Cheng kept looking at the vegetation growing by the water with his eyes wide open. Even if he didn't drink vigorously, he still wanted to achieve a miracle.

In this process, everyone slowly moved forward along the winding river, gradually getting away from the place where they came in, and also getting further away from the surrounding mountains. As they walked, their field of vision became wider and wider.

Of course, it is impossible for all places to be flat. The terrain has occasional ups and downs, but overall it is still very flat. Especially compared with what they have experienced some time ago, the place in front of them seems smoother.

Already.

Twilight has fallen again, and the people of the Qingque tribe have once again set up camp. The smoke from the kitchen slowly rises. Against the backdrop of the twilight, it always gives people a sense of tranquility and a very comfortable feeling.

Under such a scenery, Han Cheng blinked his sour eyes a few times, watching fish occasionally leaping not far away, or waving their tails, leaving circles on them and spreading towards the distance.

Going to the ripples of the water, I couldn't help sniffing.

At the end of the day today, he found no trace of rice.

Although I know that when it comes to rice, it will be a long-term effort if not managed well, and it is almost impossible to achieve it overnight, but there will still be some disappointment.

A large part of the reason for this is that it is so important to see it.

Because it is extremely important to watch, and many things have been entrusted to it, so everyone does not want it to fail, and their minds will be affected by it.

Just like when you meet someone you really like...

The twilight is getting heavier and heavier, and the rising smoke blends into the night.

The light from the bonfire, which was not conspicuous before, became brighter and brighter, illuminating a large area. On the water surface that was not too far away, a string of bubbles would rise precariously from the bottom of the water from time to time.

Under the illumination of the bonfire, half of the face is bright and half is dark.

They just float quietly on the water. After stopping for a while, some will burst silently and disappear as quietly as they rose...

The night is getting darker and the surroundings are quiet. In this quietness, sometimes the calls of waterfowl will suddenly be heard. I wonder if they are kissed by big fish on their feet.

However, such cries will last no more than ten times before they disappear, and the night becomes quiet again...

The next morning, someone raised the flame, and someone pulled out the fish cage that had been lowered into the water. With quiet busyness, a new day of life began again.

Han Cheng withdrew his gaze from the purple soil beside the fire.

By now, he was basically completely sure that where they were now was the famous Land of Abundance.

Because since I walked all the way here yesterday, the soil I encountered is still purple soil.

It's just that the current Land of Abundance is far different from what I remembered. Looking at it, it's not much different from other places I've seen before. It's all a primitive wilderness.

If we want to recreate the Kingdom of Abundance, we don’t know how long it will take and how many people will work hard for it.

After breakfast, everyone packed up and set off along the river. Due to the continuous flow of water, the river was several times wider than before.

After everyone walked zigzag along the river for about half a day, the river suddenly became wider.

This is not because a large tributary suddenly merged in, but because the land here suddenly became extremely flat, and the river water formed many small streams and flowed away into the distance.

As a result, the river water has become very shallow, and some even have only a thin layer, flowing slowly close to the ground.

In this large area of ​​shallow water, there are many aquatic vegetation growing, and a large number of water birds live here.

Some swam slowly in the water, while others moved their long legs and walked gracefully in the shallow water, leaving footprints that looked a bit like bamboo leaves.

A small green bird standing there holding on to a grass stem suddenly rushed out like an arrow from its string, leaving a circle of ripples on the surface of the water. When it flew up again, a small fish had already reached its belly.

middle……

This place is simply like a paradise for birds.

Of course, after a group of people who came beating gongs arrived, especially after a few feather arrows were shot quickly and nailed several big birds, the peace and tranquility nearby was immediately broken, and a large number of birds flapped desperately

The wings flew hurriedly towards the distance.

What primitive people were best at was probably destroying all kinds of scenery, and they did so without any pressure.
To be continued...
