Chapter 116 It’s Really Safe

"Goddess, am I doing this right?" The witch doctor didn't know whether he should do this or not, but there was a rule passed down by witch doctors of all generations, that is, when someone comes to ask for help, the tribe should help the other party while protecting itself.

Because the tribe received help from others in the most difficult times in the past, their ancestors also hoped that they could help other people in need within their ability.

She should have done nothing wrong, and the Blue Bird Tribe had a good relationship with them, and it would be unbearable to stand by and watch.

But she was worried that this would bring disaster to the tribe. After all, they had encountered such things before, and they were hurt with good intentions.

Shen Xiaoxiao smiled lightly, "Not everyone is ungrateful." The smile on her face seemed to have magic, and the witch doctor's originally uneasy heart calmed down. Yes, since the decision has been made, she must trust them, and she has known the witch of the Blue Bird Tribe for a long time, and she also believes that she will not do anything to hurt them.

Shen Xiaoxiao thought for a moment and said, "What you should consider now is how to settle them." It has been agreed to let others come, so there is no point in worrying now. It is better to spend more time thinking about how to arrange these people.

"Ah." The witch doctor was also worried. In fact, it would be best not to let them come, but the words have been said, and it is too late for her to regret it now, but she can't drive the people of the tribe out and give them the cave. She will provide them with help, but the rest depends on them.

"Let them live outside, and the cubs and pregnant females live in the cave." This is the best arrangement that can be made. As for the others, it depends on whether they can survive.

Shen Xiaoxiao said lightly, "This arrangement is also fine." After all, it is good enough that the White Tiger Tribe can take them in. You can't expect them to give up the cave, right?

"It will be very cold to live in the open air. Let them build a shed. It will be much warmer to block the wind." Shen Xiaoxiao thought for a while and said, "There are many of them. They can cut some wood or bamboo and come back to do it quickly. We can talk about other things after we get through this winter."

The witch doctor agreed subconsciously, and then asked, "Build a shed? What is that?"

"It's a place built with wood or bamboo to shelter from the wind and rain." Shen Xiaoxiao briefly explained to the witch doctor, and the witch doctor nodded thoughtfully.

Shen Xiaoxiao cleaned the food and put it in the pot to cook, "Xiao Yan, let's build a house after the winter is over."

"House?"

"Yes, build a house, then we don't have to live in a cave." Shen Xiaoxiao said excitedly. Although Xiao Yan didn't understand, he still agreed. He would accompany her no matter what she wanted to do.

After she ate the food, Qingshan and the others came back with the people of the Blue Bird Tribe. Originally, the witch doctor wanted Xiao Yan to go with him, but he refused to say anything, so in the end he let Qingshan and Lin Yun take people with him.

The witch doctor and the witch of the Blue Bird tribe exchanged greetings. The witch of the Blue Bird tribe was very grateful that they could take them in, and said some words of thanks. When she heard the witch doctor say that they could live outside the cave, she had no objection. After all, they were very grateful that the White Tiger tribe could take them in.

She was even more moved when she heard the witch doctor say that their cubs and the pregnant females could live in the cave. She held the witch doctor's hand for a long time and was reluctant to let go.

"Build a shed?" The witch of the Blue Bird tribe was a little confused.

"Yes, when the time comes, you can live inside to block the wind and it won't be so cold."

Although the witch of the Blue Bird tribe was puzzled, she believed that the witch doctor would not harm them, so she directly asked the males of the tribe to go with the people of the White Tiger tribe to cut bamboo and trees, while the females stayed in the tribe to pack things. In fact, there was nothing to pack, just put the things aside so that they would not block the way out.

Shen Xiaoxiao found a piece of land and took the females to clean the ground. Then she asked them to dig holes on the ground. Although the ground was difficult to dig, they didn't complain of being tired. They dug out the soil bit by bit. After all, there were many people, and soon the pits in the four corners were dug.

Shen Xiaoxiao thought about it and asked them to dig another pit between the two pits. The people of the Bluebird Tribe were still very curious about using hoes made of stone for the first time, but they all felt that this was much more convenient and faster than digging with their hands.

After the pit of one shed was dug, they marked out a piece of land to dig the second one. When they had dug all the holes, the people who went to cut bamboo came back.

Shen Xiaoxiao led people to break the small bamboo into two halves and tie the wheat stalks in the middle with bamboo. These stalks were originally for sheep to eat, but they didn't expect them to be used for this purpose.

Then they asked them to chisel the middle of the six bamboos at one end to reserve a space for the bamboos. These bamboos were a circle larger than the others, and they were just right for load-bearing pillars.

Then plant six bamboos in the dug pits and fill them with soil to compact them. Only when they are sure that there is no shaking can they put more bamboos on top.

They didn't have a ladder, so in order to put the pillars in, one person stepped on the shoulders of the other two to stand tall. Soon, they successfully placed all the bamboos and tied them with straw ropes. A simple bamboo shed was formed.

Then they put the tied wheat stalks on top, one layer at a time, but this can only block the wind, and it definitely won't work in rain or snow.

Bamboo rafts were placed next to them, and soon a bamboo shed was built. Although it looked simple, it was not a problem to block the wind, which was much better than their outdoor rest.

Everyone looked at the bamboo shed they built in amazement, as if they couldn't believe that they could build something that could block the wind with bamboo.

They couldn't help but sigh that the goddess of the White Tiger Tribe was really too smart. For a while, the voices of praise were endless, and Shen Xiaoxiao felt embarrassed to hear it.

It was dark when the bamboo shed was built. After talking for a while, everyone went back to rest.

The people of the Bluebird Tribe could not fall asleep for a long time. They were nervous because of what happened in the past few days. Now someone took them in. They still felt a little unreal.

"We are really safe." A crying voice sounded in the crowd, and then someone began to sob softly. Since the tribe suffered a disaster, their nerves have been tense. They dare not relax even when sleeping, for fear that someone will come to their door in the middle of the night to rob their things.

Today, they were busy cutting bamboo in the White Tiger Tribe and never stopped. Now their tense nerves can finally relax.

After everyone vented their emotions, the witch said, "The White Tiger Tribe helped us a lot this time. You must remember their kindness."

"Witch, we will." Everyone quickly assured that they would remember it without the witch saying it.

"Although the White Tiger Tribe does not ask for anything in return from us, we must be more alert and help them with their work. We are not allowed to have conflicts with them. If anyone dares to lose their temper with the people of the White Tiger Tribe, don't blame me for not giving you face." Wu said sternly.

Others agreed. How could they lose their temper with the people of the White Tiger Tribe? They are not stupid. Besides, what's the difference between doing this and being ungrateful?
