Chapter 154: Assimilated Prisoners(1/2)
The second residence of the Vine Tribe.
A group of prisoners were working hard in the fields. There were Vine tribe warriors watching beside them. No one dared to cheat.
After getting over the initial hatred and discomfort, most of the prisoners have now given up the idea of escape, and some have even undergone obvious changes in their mentality.
Because they were surprised to find that the situation they had imagined, where they could be killed in the dark and at any time, did not appear.
As long as they don't run away and don't slack off in their work, the Vine Tribe won't do anything to them.
On the contrary, their current situation is even better than that of the Jackal tribe.
Here, they have houses to live in, food to eat, and the Vine tribe warriors do not abuse them. Sometimes, if they behave well, they will even get some rewards.
"It's time to eat!"
The Vine tribe warrior shouted, and the prisoners walked back carrying their tools.
Compared with the chaos at the beginning, now they have learned to line up, and when they go to eat, they will take their tools with them and put them away neatly.
They took bowls and chopsticks, prepared rice one by one, and then gathered together in small groups to eat.
Several prisoners communicated quietly while eating.
"Oh my god, there is actually meat in today's dish."
A prisoner picked up a small piece of meat and was very excited.
"I have mine too."
"I have... too."
When these prisoners discovered that there was meat in the dish, they were very happy. They put it in their mouths and chewed it slowly to taste the taste of the meat.
After one of the captives finished eating, he licked his tongue and whispered, "Have you noticed that there is salt in the dishes we eat every day?"
These slaves do heavy physical work and sweat a lot. If they don't eat salt, they will be unable to withstand it in a few days.
Therefore, Jiang Xuan specifically told them to add salt when cooking for them.
Of course, if you add less, the taste will be lighter.
"There is indeed salt. After eating it, you will have strength to work."
The prisoners nodded one after another, feeling a little surprised in their hearts.
A prisoner said cautiously: "Actually... the Vine Tribe is not bad to us..."
Another prisoner retorted angrily: "Have you forgotten the hatred of the tribe being wiped out?"
After his reminder, several prisoners' expressions became unnatural, but more prisoners chose to remain silent.
The angry prisoner's face changed because he realized that the people around him had different ideas from his.
The reason why tribal people have strong beliefs is because the tribe’s totem god protects the tribe, enhances their strength, and allows them to survive in dangerous environments.
But once the totem god is gone and the tribe is gone, their faith will collapse, because they know that no matter how much they pray, the totem god will not appear.
People who have lost their faith will be eager to find a new faith and a place where they can live.
The Vine Tribe gave them a chance to continue living.
Especially when those captives who were completely loyal to the Jackal tribe were killed while trying to escape, the remaining people's stance was not so firm.
The hatred in their hearts will fade over time. After putting aside their prejudices, they will gradually discover the benefits of the Vine Tribe.
As time goes by, no matter what they thought before, in order to survive and live a better life, they will stay in the Vine Tribe and work hard for the Vine Tribe.
After all, for most people, surviving and living a better life is the most practical thing.
After eating, these prisoners can rest for about an hour, and then continue to work in the fields to contribute to the construction of the Vine Tribe's second settlement.
……
"Finally done!"
Feng Cao spent ten days turning the picture Jiang Xuan drew on the animal skin scroll into reality.
A brand new animal skin coat and an animal skin backpack appeared in front of her.
There are four large pockets on this animal skin coat, two on each side, one on the top and one on the bottom. The pockets are very large and deep, and can hold a lot of things.
In addition to pockets, the animal skin clothing is also sewn with nine long strips of buttons made of polished animal bones, which can be used to fasten the clothes directly, which is very convenient.
This animal skin coat even has a collar, which greatly improves the comfort when wearing it.
In addition to the animal skin clothing, Feng Cao also put a lot of thought into the animal skin backpack.
The shoulder straps of the backpack are relatively wide, so that the shoulders will not be uncomfortable.
The inside of the backpack is divided into two layers, so you can separate different things without cluttering them.
At the opening of the backpack, there is an animal skin rope, which is sewn inside the animal skin and goes around the backpack. As long as the animal skin ropes on both sides are tightened, the mouth of the backpack will tighten. Loosen the animal skin rope and hold it with both hands.
Opening the backpack is very convenient.
Although the process is not complicated, Feng Cao had to try it many times before succeeding because he had never done anything like this before.
In order to make these two things, Feng Cao stayed up many nights by the fire pond and spent a lot of thought.
Fortunately, everything was done and everything was worth it.
Feng Cao picked up the new animal skin coat and animal skin backpack, and in the evening, after dinner, went to find Jiang Xuan.
When she came outside Jiang Xuan's yard, she felt her heart beating very fast and even a little panicked.
But she was a decisive person after all. She gritted her teeth, raised her head, and knocked on the courtyard door.
"Dong dong dong..."
"Who?"
"Leader, it's me, Feng Cao."
"The glutinous rice balls are open."
Tangyuan waddled to the courtyard gate. Its body was already very huge and it stood taller than the courtyard gate.
Feng Cao was glanced at by Tang Yuan, and her heart trembled. Facing such a huge raptor, she was still a little panicked.
Tangyuan picked up the wood from the hospital door, threw it aside, and then returned to the nest to continue sleeping.
Fengcao watched the glutinous rice balls return to the nest, then walked into the door, even carefully closed the door again, and then walked into the house holding the things.
In the room, Jiang Xuan was holding an animal brush and drawing some pictures that Feng Cao couldn't understand.
What Jiang Xuan drew was actually a map, with the Vine tribe in the middle and known tribes drawn around it.

Of course, because it is not professional, the painting is not very good-looking.
At the Bird Tribe, Jiang Xuan painted a big bird with red paint, which is also a potential threat to the Vine Tribe.
Although the Bird Tribe is relatively far away from the Vine Tribe, the range of activities of a medium-sized tribe is too large, and they may one day conflict with the Vine Tribe.
After Feng Cao came in, Jiang Xuan put down the animal brush and looked at the thing she was holding.
"Chief, I've done what you asked me to do."
"Expand it and take a look."
"Yes."
Feng Cao shook his hands, and the animal skin clothes unfolded in front of Jiang Xuan.
Jiang Xuan looked at the pockets, buttons, and fine stitching on the animal skin coat, with an expression of surprise on his face.
"Okay, it's really well done. This is the animal skin jacket I want!"
After receiving Jiang Xuan's praise, Feng Cao's face turned slightly red, feeling very happy because her efforts were recognized.
Jiang Xuan personally picked up the animal skin backpack again and looked at it carefully. The workmanship also exceeded his psychological expectations, especially Feng Cao creatively divided the space inside the backpack into layers.
"Very good, Fengcao, we will make it like this in the future, bigger and smaller, and make more models, so that no matter whether you are tall, short, fat or thin, you can find a suitable one."
Jiang Xuan was very happy. He thought to himself that this kind of animal skin clothing could not only be worn by the people of the Teng tribe, but could also be used as goods and traded with other tribes, and they would definitely be able to exchange for a lot of good things.
There are also animal skin backpacks, which are much better than animal skin bags. Once popularized, they will definitely replace the portable animal skin bags.
