Chapter 325: Rapid Development, Crisis Coming(1/2)
Southwest, Qishan!
It is far from the extreme south, close to the dangerous depths of the wilderness, which is the outer edge of where Li Su and the others are.
There are rugged rocks and steep mountains here.
Similar to the land of Sichuan and Sichuan, the humidity is very high, and there are high mountains and ridges everywhere. In the most places, there can be more than 50 mountains in one kilometer in diameter.
These mountains are very strange. They are tall but not big, densely packed, and very strange in length.
Even the midday sun can hardly illuminate this place, and half of it is in shadow.
Here, there are abundant water sources and underground rivers spread throughout, forming a huge network that runs through almost everything.
Because of its special environment, the humidity here is very high, and it is shrouded in heavy fog all year round. And because of the special geographical environment, there are shrubs, moss, vines and other creatures growing all over the mountains and plains, giving a sense of difficulty.
The mystery of words.
Although the dangerous terrain means that no large beasts can survive here, creatures such as snakes, insects, rats, and ants are everywhere.
Although the above creatures are not as dangerous as large beasts, they are still very scary because most of them are poisonous. Therefore, the environment is not suitable for human survival.
Of course, this was before, not now.
As Li Su's power of fire spreads among the human race, the increasingly powerful human race has the ability to live in this place.
Four days and nights ago, the leader personally led his team here to explore Qishan Mountain.
There is no way, there are too many people.
As Li Su's plan was implemented step by step, the population quickly exceeded one million, and we had to find a way to resettle it. We couldn't keep people scattered.
The Celestial Tribe's pursuit of them has not stopped, they are always looking for them.
Moreover, keeping the population dispersed like this is not conducive to the cohesion of the tribe and its subsequent development.
Of course, there is another fundamental reason why a large number of people can be brought together, and that is that the knowledge of farming and animal husbandry was passed on by Li Su.
As the population increases, food problems plague almost all local tribes.
While the leaders had no clue about this issue, they not only sent a message to Li Su to inquire.
It was just a subconscious question at first, without much expectation. After all, Emperor Sui is not a god. What he can do is beyond imagination. The food problem may be difficult to solve in a short while.
But who is Li Su? Traveler, in terms of accumulated knowledge, there is no one in this world who can surpass him.
That night Li Su conveyed a great deal of knowledge.
To put it simply, it is farming and animal husbandry, and it also comes with the plants that Li Su discovered that grow quickly and contain a lot of starch, and the fertile beasts. By the way, he also gave a set of words to spread the words.
, and it is also equipped with a certain level of education system and cultural system.
This knowledge, in primitive society, was undoubtedly the beacon that illuminated everything, and the next development direction was suddenly determined.
As if the leader had found a treasure, he led a large army directly to Qishan to develop the land without hesitation.
Today, eight days and nights later, the extremely dangerous Qishan Mountain has become one of the bases of the human race. Its population alone has reached an astonishing number of millions, accounting for one-tenth of the current total population.
Not only that, the unique geographical environment here has become the granary of the human race. The food containing a lot of starch discovered by Li Su is not only a high-yielding plant, but also a type of vine. The environment here can be said to be
Its paradise, with the help of humans to clean up the moss and other plants, almost covers the entire Qishan Mountain. In one day, it can harvest enough starch for millions of people to eat for three days.
In addition to the abundant water source, grass carp, a fast-growing species, is fed here. It only takes one day for the eggs to mature. An adult individual weighs about fifty pounds, and a female can lay tens of thousands of eggs at a time.
situation.
It can be said that just such a place basically solves all the current food requirements of the human race. One-third is stored every day. The plan is also provided by Li Su. There will be no problems for at least a hundred years.
Therefore, at this stage, the human race, except for those who are still outside and are frantically digging for the roots of the Seven Heavenly God Tribe, are doing two things.
Cultivation, procreation.
Unfortunately, the number of tribal women is too small. There are tens of millions of tribes, but there are less than two million women. Therefore, there are at most more than one million newborns every day.
The Celestial God tribe obviously also understands that women are the key to production. If they want to obtain a large amount of labor, women must manage this well. Therefore, although there are many escaped slaves, there are very few women.
For this reason, the tribe made two attempts to rob women. They sacrificed a lot and brought back more than 100,000 women.
Unfortunately, the Celestial Tribe subsequently strengthened its defenses in this regard, and the Divine Attendant personally took charge, completely losing the chance.
Faced with this situation, we can only continue to have children and increase the number of children. If there is a girl, we should protect it very well and do our best to cultivate it.
So far, more than five million people have been added to the tribe, including about three million girls.
The next population explosion should be five days and nights later.
The leader and others gathered together and made calculations.
An old man said: "The oldest one is nine years old, and there are about 60,000 women among them."
This is the earliest batch, the first year.
"In the second year of Emperor Sui, 180,000."
"In the third year of Emperor Sui, three hundred and fifty thousand."
"Sui Huang's fourth year, six hundred and seventy thousand."
"The number of tribal girls currently counted, ranging from nine to six years old, is almost 1.26 million."
"Since the fifth year of Emperor Sui, the number of new female babies has been close to 700,000 every year. Especially in the tenth year of Emperor Sui, this year, the number has exceeded one million. In eight days and nights, the adult female population of our Sui tribe will exceed one million.
million, reaching one-third that of men.”
"It's still too slow!"
An old man frowned. Judging from the current number of tribal men, the population should have increased by tens of millions every year.
Although the annual food produced in Qishan can only feed about 80 million people, the base area of the human race has never been one. They also found islands deep in the river in the far east, and the resources on them are enough to feed tens of millions of people.
The same is true for the Northland and the Westland.
In fact, the human race has overcapacity, and the knowledge transmitted by Sui Emperor is too terrifying. It is impossible to imagine that they would go out hunting and encounter danger a day ago. After a day, they can easily produce and harvest without having to worry about food.
.
Therefore, what limits the development of the human race is nothing else but the shortage of women, a serious shortage.
If there are enough, tens of millions can be produced in one day, and in five days it can reach the largest unit in the number given by Sui Huang, breaking 100 million.
The old man couldn't help but said: "Why does Emperor Sui stipulate that women must be sixteen years old before they can engage in human affairs? They are obviously twelve years old..."
"presumptuous!"
"Be bold!"
In an instant, not far from him, an old man said angrily: "How dare you question Sui Huang's decision???"
Not just him, many people had angry faces, especially the middle-aged and young people, whose eyes were red, especially the women who directly frowned and looked at the person who spoke with unkind eyes.
In ten years, even if Li Su had not shown his face even once, all orders were issued through the leaders. The younger generation did not even know what he looked like. Although the leaders had promised to keep Li Su's portrait or something,
Li Su refused, and then sent a flame pattern over and told them to take this as their faith.
It is not a person who believes, but the fire.
In fact, Li Su was planning to create a dragon pattern, but after some thought, he decided to forget it. In this world, spiritual will can affect reality, so it cannot be wasted.
Originally, Li Su's intention in doing this was to eliminate his personal influence, continue to maintain his mystery, and become a background. However, it seemed that he did not go in the direction Li Su wanted at all, and the entire tribe worshiped him more and more.
What you say is like an imperial edict, and it can almost be said to be sacrosanct in the tribe.
"The third elder just wants to increase the population. After all, we are racing against time."
The leader spoke, and he said softly: "The people who can sit here are undoubtedly followers of Emperor Sui. For Emperor Sui and for the human race, we can sacrifice everything, including our lives and souls."
Looking around, there are more than three hundred people.
This is the team of the Sui clan. The lowest strength is also the peak of the God's Chosen. No, that is no longer the case.
The third level of warrior, the ninth level of fire.
The lowest person who can sit here is the third level of fire, and the strongest one has reached the eighth level of fire.
At the lowest level, it surpasses the God's Chosen Warrior, and at the highest level, it can fight as a divine servant.
"Regarding this issue, in fact Sui Huang specifically said that I didn't think much about it at the time. Now that someone has asked, I will tell you."
"Originally, Emperor Sui thought that women should not consider fertility issues until they are eighteen years old, but considering the current situation of the human race, it was reduced to sixteen years old. After our human race wins and defeats the gods, this age will be
Changing the age back to twenty. Emperor Sui gave several reasons, the most important of which is that girls' bodies are not fully developed before the age of sixteen, and childbirth at this time will have an impact on their bodies, including their life span."
"I also collected relevant data afterwards. The life span of a girl who undergoes the remaining pregnancy at the age of twelve will indeed be reduced, and the children born will also have congenital deficiencies, and then they will easily have accidents and die in childbirth. This probability is very high."
"Not only that, because of the power of fire, the human body has become stronger and matured faster. Nowadays, a twelve-year-old woman is almost no different from an adult. There should be no threat to her life, and there will be no impact on her lifespan.
So I proposed to Emperor Sui again, but Emperor Sui rejected it."
"Suihuang said, we are moving forward for a great belief. In this process, everyone is a participant, a creator of the times, and everyone is. Indeed, allowing women to give birth earlier can increase the population and allow
The tribe is growing rapidly. But remember, they are also members of this great era, one of the founders, not so-called reproductive tools.
Boys have a future, and so do girls! If they give birth after the age of sixteen, their bodies will be stronger, healthier, better able to adapt to pregnancy, and have the energy to do other things instead of just knowing
Fertility.
