Chapter 328: Primitive Tribe Chieftain Mother-in-law 48
When winter came, Yun Xi suddenly felt goose bumps all over her body. She was glad that she was not dazzled by the abundant resources here and had stored food seriously. Otherwise, the temperature would have made her starve to death if not frozen to death.
Heavy snow fell, covering the golden city with a layer of crystal white, blending it into the white world.
The tribe had quite a harvest this year. They found many common seasonings and even cotton trees. Next year they can try growing cotton, which they can use to make cotton cloth. They also found lotus roots and water chestnuts in the lake, and even had plenty of herbs in the Dragon Palace. Unfortunately, there has been no progress on staple foods like wheat and rice.
Everyone was gathered together and food was distributed evenly to everyone, including Dailo milk, tapioca pearls, mung beans, red beans, pumpkin, ginger, dried seafood, mushrooms, dried wild vegetables, dried meat, bacon, cured chicken, cured duck, sausage, preserved fruits, jam, nuts, lotus roots, lotus seeds, salt, sugar...
Another person had twenty animal skins, twenty feet of linen, two pairs of deerskin boots, and two pairs of cowhide shoes.
"We've been busy for ten months. The weather's cold now, so everyone should rest at home. Also, here's the patrol team roster and the childcare roster. The patrol team consists of twenty teams of five people each. Two teams patrol daily, one during the day and one at night. The same goes for childcare, but the schedules will be staggered. People can't work non-stop, as it can easily tire them out."
Yun Xi was originally very comfortable sleeping in a room by herself, but she didn't expect Ying and Lang to send their two children here in order to have a baby.
Really, even though he is a chief, he still can’t escape the fate of taking care of children.
System: "Host, if you take care of many children, you will develop a kind heart and fall in love with children."
"System, you are so naive."
Yun Xi said immediately.
"People are easily bored with the old and easily attracted by the new. They're bound to get tired of anything after too much exposure. If you give me endless money, I'll soon get tired of it. If you give me a perfect handsome man, I'll get tired of him even after a hundred years. If you give me a room full of books, I'll get bored after reading them a few times. And let's not even talk about children. While every child has their own shining points, they also have all sorts of flaws. If it weren't for my sense of responsibility, I wouldn't even bother raising them."
"Okay, Bing, stop pulling your sister's hair, and Yun, stop crawling around."
"Look, Bing, who said he would take his sister out to play last year, has started fighting with her this year." Yun Xi was playing games and had to be distracted by watching the child. It was really enough.
Bing jumped up and down on the wooden bed. When she got tired, she climbed onto the kang and acted coquettishly, "Grandma, I want to eat some preserved fruit."
"Guoguo!" Yun, who was confined in the crib, danced with joy.
"No, you have already eaten three pieces today. If you can learn two words, you can have one." Yun Xi squinted.
Snap!
Bing fell onto the hide and started throwing himself about, his arms and legs tumbling.
"System, how can anyone like a child like this?"
The system comforted him, "The child is still young and will be fine when he grows up."
"It takes a long time to educate children to become outstanding! It takes a long time to suppress their nature and instill correct values and outlook on life. Without education, children will not naturally become good. Education is the most laborious thing."
After Yun Xi finished speaking, she stretched out her iron sand palm and hit Bing's butt a few times.
"Sit still properly and don't act like a scoundrel again!"
"Wow!"
Bing burst into tears, and Yun was so scared that she trembled and started howling too.
"Host, don't abuse the child."
"How can this be considered abuse? When I was a kid, I was naughty and my dad would chase me with a bamboo stick and beat me. He would hit me with the stick a few times. That was abuse. For a long time, I didn't dare to face the bamboo stick." Yun Xi sneered. She was controlling her strength. The child was acting here.
I picked up Yun'er and gave her a piece of dried meat to chew on. She soon stopped crying. She was a real little foodie.
A few minutes later, Yun Xi spoke expressionlessly.
"Bing, put on your shoes and come learn to read. After you finish learning, get ready for lunch and help grandma light the fire."
Seeing that her grandmother was "heartless", Bing got up with sobs, put on her clothes, and came to learn to read obediently.
First round, KO!
Life in winter is long and boring, with few entertainment activities. Yun Xi asked Ying to organize several competitions. The final winner can be named a warrior, which instantly ignites the cold winter. The tribesmen are eager to try, and there are also competitions among the tribesmen who cannot transform into beasts. Many ordinary people hope to activate their bloodlines and successfully transform into beasts through extreme battles.
Although everyone in the tribe is equal, everyone has a desire to be strong. Who would be willing to be mediocre all the time?
Yun Xi gave out prizes. There was one first prize, which was an axe; three second prizes, which were an iron pot; and ten third prizes, which were kitchen knives.
We will take this opportunity to distribute some tools that make life easier, thereby motivating everyone to look for iron ore.
There is a large square at the junction of the inner and outer cities in the south, where the competition is held. Yun Xi has watched several matches and found all kinds of fighting styles. If the falcon orcs and dragon orcs were not allowed to fly in the sky all the time, she even doubted that no one could touch a hair of the falcon orcs and dragon orcs.
Bear orcs are more violent in fights, wolves are not bad either, and as a tiger orc, he benefits a lot every time the totem soul bestows blessings upon him. His physique, strength, and agility are all improved to a certain extent, and his strength is comparable to that of Sakura, but he cannot fly.
"Host, your 'daughter-in-law' is incredible."
"What's the problem?" Yun Xi was puzzled. She looked up and down, left and right, but didn't see anything special.
"He has a trace of the blood of the mythical beast White Tiger, but I don't know if his bloodline talent can inspire the White Tiger's ability to fly."
The White Tiger is not only one of the four sacred beasts, but is also endowed with the ability to fly. A pair of crystal-clear wings sprout from its back, seemingly ready to soar into the sky at any moment. Furthermore, the White Tiger fights alongside the Azure Dragon, symbolizing the God of War and a capable assistant in subduing demons and monsters.
In ancient Chinese mythology, the white tiger is considered one of the four heavenly spirits, representing the west. Along with the Vermillion Bird, the Black Tortoise, and the Azure Dragon, they are collectively known as the Four Gods of the Four Directions. Its fur is as white as snow, towering into the clouds. It symbolizes the sacred element of metal, and carries people's yearning and pursuit for a better life.
"The main characteristics of the mythical beast White Tiger are combat power and flight. It depends on which talent the wolf can awaken. Both are very good." Yun Xi looked towards the north. "System, are you saying that those birdmen are phoenixes?"
"Phoenix, Vermillion Bird and Azure Luan orcs, I don't know why, there are so many descendants of mythical beasts here. The dragon was drawn by Yang, but what about the others? It's really strange." said the system.
Yun Xi frowned. "Isn't this abnormal? This is the Orc Continent. If there are dragons, why can't there be descendants of other mythical beasts?"
The system was so absorbed in cultivating immortals that it soon stopped paying attention. "Maybe. I don't have any news for the time being."
