Chapter 125 Spring Comes and Winter Comes Again
Once the snow stops, you no longer have to worry about insufficient food.
Wang Yang didn't go out anymore and became a herder. He just took the little rabbit out to eat grass every day.
The snow period this time lasted almost a week, and it was about another week to wait for the snow to completely melt.
Wang Yang looked at the forest that turned green again speechlessly and curled his lips: "This is spring again? I hope there will be no accidents this time."
His concerns were obviously a bit redundant, because in the following time, the weather kept warming up, and in a blink of an eye, a month passed, and it was the middle and late stages of spring.
This is Wang Yang's conservative estimate, because the winter lasts too long, and the originally beautiful spring has also been damaged by sudden heavy snow, and it may have reached the late spring.
No matter what, Wang Yang would not have too many complaints.
But one thing he was very upset, that is the fruit trees in the orchard.
In the long winter, the seriously injured orchards were already overwhelmed, and many fruit trees were unknown for life and death. Now they have suffered large-scale snowfall, and some fruit trees that have survived are completely dead.
In January, there were no buds on the branches.
He counted the dead trees, which were a total of more than a dozen, and affected three kinds of fruit trees.
Wang Yang had no choice but to get rid of the old and welcome the new, and plant the new seeds.
It was not just the orchards that suffered severe blows, but the trees of the same type nearby also suffered heavy blows.
Walking in the forest, there is often a small area full of sunshine, which is unimaginable in the previously airtight woods.
All the trees with smooth bark and juice inside died.
Suddenly, the forest became riddled with holes and could bask in the sun everywhere. It was really cheaper for those snakes.
The bad news was also because of the damn snakes that a young man who had just joined the hunting team died in a snake hunting.
When he returned to the cave, his wounds could not stop bleeding and his face turned blue. No matter how many big thistles Wang Yang used for him, it would be useless.
Afterwards, Wang Yang held a pretty decent funeral for him, buried outside the canyon.
But the next day I found that an unknown damn animal dug in.
Wang Yang was angry and angry, not knowing what to do, so he set up a wooden barrel trap nearby, but still failed to catch the unknown damn animal.
If he had known this, he would have buried his body in a rarely visited bone forest.
After all this, he turned his attention to the vine plants.
The vines have not grown well and are not suitable for mining. I guess they will not grow well when summer comes, and only in autumn can they be harvested.
There are great changes in the forest. As mentioned before, not only the orchards were damaged, but many fruit trees in the forest were also greatly damaged. Most of the dozen fruit trees at the foot of the mountain on the left died, and only a few survived.
Some trees that tend to be temperate gradually disappeared, and the rest were all cold-resistant trees. The entire area developed towards the mixed coniferous forests in the sub-cold zone.
In summer, these trends become more and more obvious. All the places with sunshine are occupied by various coniferous trees that emerge.
The limitations of forest varieties have also made many animals leave and are no longer as prosperous as before.
Wang Yang didn't want to say anything more, nor did he worry that people could survive in the polar regions, but were they afraid that they would not be able to survive here?
The tribe's development momentum will not stagnate due to some accidents, and the breeding is getting better and better, and the mice are getting pregnant again.
This time they didn't have much competition, and they would soon find their favorite concubine.
Civets and rabbits also began to reproduce, so these are naturally no problem.
The chickens competed, and the chicken brothers challenged the chicken boss once again during this period and returned home with a lottery.
The transition during this period was quite smooth, basically the same as before.
Move time to the middle and late summer, this season is a time of harvest and the happiest moment.
Because animals are active very frequently during this season, even some animals that are active at night will appear during the day.
They are busy in the final breeding period, looking for spouses and food, and are very busy.
For Wang Yang and others, it is the best time to hunt. You don’t need to spend much effort to get a lot of food and you can’t finish it.
Generally speaking, it will be air-dried and kept for a later time.
Now Wang Yang is usually busy taking care of various small animals. The number of mice has exceeded 100. Most of them have moved to their houses outside. When someone gets pregnant, they will move into the cave.
The flock of chickens has reached a scale of more than thirty, and a bunch of eggs has not yet hatched.
There are a little fewer civets and rabbits, and there are more than twenty.
The total number added up to 200.
The food they consume every day is also quite amazing, but Wang Yang and others can completely afford it without any pressure.
That day, he cleaned the house and came to the orchard.
The fruit trees that had been planted for several years finally bear fruit. The fruit trees that were planted first and have experienced many hardships have produced half-blue and half-red wild fruits.
Wang Yangcai took the next one, rubbed it, and bit it down in one bite.
Crispy...not chicken flavor.
"It's a little astringent." He smiled and didn't care. He ate it in big mouthfuls, and always felt that what he had grown was much better than the ones he picked.
He picked several more and came to his friends. They were busy raising orchards and joking with each other, without feeling tired.
Wang Yang threw the fruit to them and joined the reclaiming.
There was nothing to say in the following time, and there was not much meaningful content.
In autumn, we are collecting vines, storing food, picking up branches, drying and storing, without much change.
Except for the additional project of picking fruits at home, everything is happening again.
There are more food stored today, including what everyone eats and small animals eat. There are air-dried and smoked meat everywhere, so much more than there is no place to put it.
Needless to say, Wang Yang ignored their territory and did not want to pay attention to how much they had grown.
He is busy weaving ropes. Now, with the increase in the number of people participating in hunting, the number of people used has increased to four, and only one is available for backup. By next year, it is probably not enough.
He has to make some more.
The winter of this year came early again, and the tribe should have sufficient preparations, but Wang Yang was not very happy. He vaguely felt that a very bad premonition had appeared.
The arrival of the ice age.
This point no longer needs to be more obvious. It comes earlier and longer every year, and this is definitely not something that Wang Yang would not have hoped for.
