Chapter 136 Hunting and Farming Which is Better
Chapter 136: Hunting and Cultivation is better
People who have eaten a full meal cannot withstand hunger the most.
A person who has been in a state of hunger for a long time has a strong tolerance for hunger, while a person who has eaten a full meal knows the taste of eating a full meal, so once he is hungry, he will look particularly crazy.
Therefore, the so-called civilized people are actually the so-called civilized people. If a group of hungry savages and a group of hungry civilized people are placed in the same environment, the first to eat up the same kind will definitely be civilized people!
To expand on this topic, the savage knows the importance of companions and will make sacrifices for this group to maintain the integrity of the ethnic group.
Civilized people - know the importance of companions better, but it is difficult to sacrifice themselves...
The Yunchuan tribe has been using grass as food recently. The tribesmen have become accustomed to digesting the stomach of meat. At this time, they start to digest grass, and their appetites frantically protest to the brain. In the end, the brain has nothing else except for the signal of eating.
At night, the bonfire is blazing. People are tired all day, but no one sleeps. It’s not that they don’t want to sleep, but that they can’t sleep. Some people just lie down and the things in their stomachs gush out wildly, spraying from their mouths and noses together, and gastric juice enters the trachea. The stimulating vomiter coughs wildly and is almost dead.
Yunchuan slept. He was full, but he didn't eat too much. Including Jingwei, everyone could only stare at their family sleeping with their eyes widened, while they were so sleepy that they didn't dare to fall asleep.
It was getting better when it was almost dawn, but Yunchuan woke up, sleeping alone in a valley.
After dawn, Yunchuan beat the drum.
A new, tired day is about to begin.
Today, the main task is not to kill, but to capture.
The giants once again took on the heavy responsibility. Each of them had a long bamboo pole in their hands, and there was a leather rope tied with a lively button on the bamboo pole. Any herbivorous beast requested by the clan leader would be trapped by them with a leather rope and then tied up and transported back to Peach Blossom Island.
At this time, the strongest and most courageous herbivorous beast leader cannot keep a living, and the herbivorous beast without the leader will be obedient. Otherwise, as long as their leader is still there, the herbivorous beasts will keep running away.
So, the deer climbed the cliff and then fell down again. The sheep went up the cliff and then fell down again. The wild boar also climbed the cliff. The fate was the same as the deer and the sheep.
Of course, wild donkeys are different. They only know how to turn around and have no escape, and they are unwilling to stop.
Donkeys are a good thing, not only easy to raise, but also hardworking. In addition, they are not big, so women can hold them, pull them back and carry goods on their backs. They are absolutely good helpers. In addition, although this thing has a stubborn temper, it is not strong and easy to tame. Yunchuan decided to catch them all in one go.
Kuafu, who had a real meal last night, seemed very useful at this time. His big hands actually grabbed a donkey and raised it up. A new experience that he had never had before caused the donkey to his four hooves and kicked it around, looking very scared.
The two giants came over and tied a trip rope on the donkey's front legs smoothly, and threw it away.
The donkey who was free wanted to run, but fell to the ground by a trip rope, got up and ran, and was thrown down again.
A huge elk weighing half a ton fell off the cliff, causing its intestines to break and its stomach to flow, and more than a dozen forks of the antlers fell into pieces.
Five or six tribesmen rushed towards the deer king who had not yet died. The first thing they did was to open the deer's belly. Because the internal organs had been broken, they had no edible value. The internal organs were thrown into the river and followed the flow. The deer skin was also broken in many places. Its use value was not very high, so there was no need to peel it. After dividing the large pieces of meat, burn the hair on the deer skin with fire, apply salt, and then smoke it on a bacon rack.
After preliminary smoke, women and children will come over with carts and take them back to Peach Blossom Island for deep processing.
The elk was squeezed off the cliff by the giants with their strong bodies, killing the deer king, and the rest of the deer could only scream "Yoyo" and circled with the donkey.
Yunchuan didn't expect to be able to harvest a group of wild donkeys, but there was no horse, which made Yunchuan a little disappointed.
Just after throwing a deer head into the river, another wild boar weighing at least 300 kilograms fell from the sky, and with a rumbling sound, the wild boar's eyes flew out in his mouth, ears, and butt, and large swells of blood began to gush out, which was very scary.
The tribesmen were used to this scene and stepped forward calmly to divide the big wild boar. Similarly, the internal organs were not enough. When the tribesmen were about to throw away the pig's head, they were stopped by Yunchuan. This is a good thing and cannot be wasted.
As the killing continued to deepen, more and more vultures were in the sky, and crows were overwhelming. They seemed not afraid of drums, or in other words, these birds who were accustomed to eating carrion were used to being disturbed when eating.
This small river in Kuangtou Valley winds westward and enters the territory of the Xuanyuan tribe before entering the river upstream.
Because there are too many wild beasts in the river, birds circling on the river and keep rising and falling.
Xuanyuan stood at the mouth of the river and quietly looked at the dark red and smelly river water.
The internal organs and heads of various beasts mixed in the river continued to flow through Xuanyuan and finally merged into the river.
"The Yunchuan tribe will punish them if they do this." Feng Houshi took out a ragged internal organ from the water and pointed at Xuanyuan Dao.
"Don't the Yunchuan tribe know that the people of Yunchuan tribe cannot kill all the wild animals at once?"
Cangjie roughly counted the heads of the beast in the water and sighed.
In the prehistoric world, people are actually members of the food chain, and they do not belong to the top, and basically have the same status as wolves.
Even wolves will not kill and eat all herbivorous beasts. They will only eat the sick and weak in the beasts, which is beneficial to the overall reproduction of the herbivorous beasts.
Therefore, the savage tribe will not carry out extermination massacres of a herbivorous beast group. Even if they want to catch herbivorous beasts and come back to raise them, they will definitely not do the same as Yunchuan tribe.
It is difficult and labor-intensive to capture wild herbivorous animals and train them into poultry and livestock.
The only consequence of Yunchuan tribe doing this is that their tribe will reduce the importance of hunting in the future...or, no longer regard hunting as the tribe's main food source.
This is what Xuanyuan couldn't understand.
Farming is important and its position in the tribal survival field is becoming increasingly important, but hunting is equally important.
In the Xuanyuan tribe, two legs that walk at the same time when farming and hunting are indispensable.
In the Chiyou tribe, hunting is a leg that is much more important than farming, and it is much stronger. The leg that farms have appeared, but it is just a vassal of hunting.
Yunchuan did this to completely cut off the hunting leg and form a situation where farming is the absolute source of life.
"They want to eat ten years of meals and eat them all year round, that's their business, we don't do that."
After thinking for a long time, Xuanyuan said to his subordinates who were following him.
"Now, many beasts have been driven over from Yunchuan tribe. The Niu tribe and the Tiger tribe have already started hunting. We cannot learn from Yunchuan tribe. Fenghou, tell the Niu and Tiger tribe that when hunting, only hunt beasts and do not hunt herbivorous beasts."
Fenghou said: "The Yunchuan tribe killed all the herbivorous beasts in their tribe territory. After a while, the herbivorous beasts in our tribe territory will run to them. The Yunchuan tribe is now hunting the herbivorous beasts in their tribe territory. In the future, the herbivorous beasts in our tribe territory are hunting and killing them. In the final analysis, the Yunchuan tribe's hunting this time is harming the interests of all of us. The patriarch, what should we do about this matter?
Unless, his Yunchuan tribe will no longer hunt in the future.”
Xuanyuan looked at Fenghou and said, "Are you sure to defeat Yunchuan now?"
Fenghoushi said: "Unless Yunchuan leaves his turtle shell."
Xuanyuan looked at Feng Houshi and said lightly: "His city wall is already very high and it is very difficult to climb. Yunchuan is another coward. How could he be willing to fight you in the wild?
Take your time, when we understand this wall thoroughly, Yunchuan will not have the right to bargain with us."
Cangjie said: "The Yunchuan tribe may not really hunt again in the future. Even if there are, it will be a small-scale hunt.
Now, the food in his tribe suddenly increased. After he harvested the crops in the land, the Yunchuan tribe would definitely become the richest tribe near the river.
Yunchuan would also use these grains to recruit more tribes, just like this time he accepted more than 120 Kuafu at one time, and his power would become increasingly greater.
This puts a lot of pressure on our tribe. When I was on the meteorite plain and chatting with Yunchuan, he also said that he should set a fire to burn all the grasslands and hills that did not grow trees near the tribe, and reclaim them into fields. In this way, only by having a large amount of land can a large tribe be supported.
It seems that Yunchuan is working towards a large tribe he hopes for."
Feng Houshi said in confusion: "Can you really support a large tribe by relying solely on planting?"
Xuanyuan nodded and said, "If you want the tribe to stop splitting and continue to grow, then farming is the only possible option.
A hunting tribe needs too many mountains and forests and grasslands, while a farming tribe needs much less land than a hunting tribe, and uses less land to feed more people. In this way, the tribe does not need to be divided because it is too big. The idea of a huge tribe gathering will be realized."
Feng Houshi came over and said, "Clan leader, now..."
Xuanyuan blocked Feng and didn't finish his words, looked at the animal remains in the river and said, "Look first, see first, see if Yunchuan tribe can really make a way for us."
Cangjie said: "This takes time."
Xuanyuan used his hand to fish the river stained with blood and said, "What we don't lack the least now is time."
