Chapter 85: Traces of the Winged Race Discovered, Lin Ye’s True Witchcraft!
However, everyone had already eaten barbecue today.
Therefore, the stewed meat and boiled potatoes in Lin Ye’s mouth could only be enjoyed tomorrow.
According to Lin Ye’s estimation, the potatoes should be fully ripe by tomorrow.
Lin Ye himself had also been looking forward to potatoes for a long time.
The sky slowly darkened.
The Beast-eared Girls, each carrying their pottery sculptures, walked towards their tents.
At this moment, a system prompt sounded in Lin Ye’s mind.
“Ding! Congratulations to the host for successfully making pottery, civilization level has increased slightly, and you have received rewards: 5000 points.” Hearing the system’s prompt, a smile appeared on Lin Ye’s face.
A full five thousand points.
After these two increases in civilization level, Lin Ye understood something.
To get points, one still had to improve the civilization level.
Moreover, the more groundbreaking the civilization advancement, the more civilization level points received.
Clearly, the production of pottery would advance the entire tribe’s civilization by a large step.
Then Lin Ye took the pottery pot to the water pipe and filled it with a pot of water.
After watching for a while and confirming that the pottery pot had no leaks, Lin Ye poured out the water and, carrying the pottery pot, returned to the tent with Sakura.
Just as he was filling the water, Lin Ye noticed that the water flow from the pipe had decreased again.
It seemed that the water level in the small river had dropped again.
Digging a well must begin as soon as possible; it would be too late to dig when the water supply cut off.
The next day, Lin Ye slept until it was bright.
Sakura had already gone out at some point.
Lin Ye lay on the straw mat and stretched. As he stretched, all his muscles trembled. After stretching, Lin Ye nodded and said to himself, “Well, I’ve really slept well.” Then Lin Ye lay there and performed the daily sign-in. “System, perform daily sign-in.”
“Ding! Congratulations to the host for successfully signing in and receiving rewards: 100 points.”
Hearing it was points again, Lin Ye had no reaction this time.
Before signing in, Lin Ye had already resigned himself to it, having prepared himself mentally.
Lin Ye’s mindset while lying on the straw mat was, the system can no longer trick me.
However, after signing in, Lin Ye popped up with a somersault.
This was because Sakura’s tent was only half a meter high, so he couldn’t stand up.
Then Lin Ye, bending over, left the tent.
All thirty-one Beast-eared Girls were already awake and busy near the open space, gathering berries or collecting firewood.
Lin Ye stretched his neck and then went to the pottery kiln to get the five shovels.
On the way back to the open space, Lin Ye saw Xing and Yun chatting about something in the trees nearby.
So Lin Ye walked over.
Hearing the sound of Lin Ye approaching, both of them looked over. “Ye, why are you here?”
Seeing it was Lin Ye, Xing asked.
“Just passing by. I saw you two here, what were you talking about? Why did you come all the way here?” Hearing Lin Ye’s words, Yun did not speak but looked at Xing.
Xing nodded slightly at Yun, and then Yun looked at Lin Ye and said.
“Today, when I was cutting hollow trees by the river, I saw the figures of two Winged People in the sky on the opposite bank from a distance. It seemed like one of them was Sister Mingyun, with white wings.” After Yun finished speaking, she looked at Xing again.
Lin Ye, upon hearing that Yun had discovered traces of the Winged Race, involuntarily looked at Xing.
Xing, after learning that Mingyun was safe, was very happy.
However, hearing that Yun said Mingyun and the others had flown far away to the other side of the river.
Even if Xing wanted to find them now, she couldn’t cross the river.
At this time, Lin Ye said to Xing.
“Do you need me to accompany you to find Mingyun and the others?”
Lin Ye could see Xing’s thoughts. Xing had always been very worried about Mingyun’s safety. Now that she had news of them, she would definitely want to go find them.
But after hearing Lin Ye’s words, she shook her head and said, “It’s a long way to find Mingyun and the others, and we have to cross the river. Now that I know they are safe, I am already very satisfied. When we are better prepared in the future, I will find a way to find Mingyun and the others.” Lin Ye nodded after hearing Xing’s words.
Although Lin Ye had a way to cross the river, the top priority now was to dig the well.
If they went to search for the Winged Race now, they might not find them for days, and by then the small river would have dried up, and everyone would have no water to drink.
Moreover, the Pig-headed Men had already been killed by the Beast-eared Girls, so the Winged Race would not face any danger now, and they could fly.
Thinking of this, Lin Ye looked up and said to Xing.
“Since that’s the case, then gather everyone together. Our tribe has another big task to undertake.” Hearing Lin Ye’s words, Xing and Yun’s bodies trembled slightly.
They remembered that the last time Lin Ye said this, it was when they discovered the Pig-headed Men.
The two immediately felt that perhaps the Pig-headed Tribe had not been completely wiped out and they were coming again?
Or perhaps Lin Ye had discovered some other enemies.
Xing and Yun immediately looked at Lin Ye. Seeing the strong reaction from the two Horned Girls, Lin Ye smiled and said to them.
“No need to be nervous. It’s just that the water in the small river is getting less and less. In a few more days, the water pipe will run dry, and I’m going to lead everyone to dig a well.” Hearing Lin Ye say this, the two Horned Girls finally relaxed.
However, immediately after, their eyes became confused.
“Digging a well? What does that mean?” The two Horned Girls asked Lin Ye simultaneously, tilting their heads.
Lin Ye sighed at their sibling-like synchronicity and shook his head without explaining. Instead, he said, “Gather everyone together, and I will explain it to everyone.”
Xing and Yun nodded, then ran towards the open space to gather the Beast-eared Girls.
Lin Ye also followed with the shovels.
Please vote for fresh flowers.
The Beast-eared Girls, upon hearing that Lin Ye had something else to announce, obediently gathered together and looked at Lin Ye.
“The day before yesterday, Sakura and I went to the river and found that the water level had dropped significantly. I dug the hollow tree a little deeper, but I estimate that if it doesn’t rain in the next few days, the small river will completely dry up, and no water will come out of the pipe.” As soon as Lin Ye said this, the Beast-eared Girls started looking at each other. They had all experienced the small river drying up and having no water to drink, resorting to eating berries for thirst.
Now, hearing Lin Ye say that the small river would run dry again, everyone couldn’t help but worry.
Lin Ye watched as the ears and tails of the Beast-eared Girls drooped powerlessly after he finished speaking.
Then he continued, “However, I discovered that beneath the ground of our tribe, there is also a river, a river that will not dry up year-round.” Hearing Lin Ye’s words, the Beast-eared Girls immediately looked at the ground beneath them in shock.
Sakura suddenly jumped onto Shi’s body, saying fearfully.
… “Shi, there’s a river below, we’ll fall in.”
The other Beast-eared Girls were also a little scared, standing there helplessly. “What should we do? There’s a river below, we’re going to fall in.”
“Ah, I don’t want to fall into the water, what should I do, what should I do?” “There’s a river underground? Is the ground going to collapse?”
While everyone was in a panic, Shi, with Sakura still hanging on him, calmly asked, “Ye, is there really a river below? How deep is it? Will we all fall in?”
“There is indeed a river underground, but don’t worry, you won’t fall in, and the ground won’t collapse. This river has been here for a long time; if you were going to fall, you would have fallen long ago.” Lin Ye explained to the Beast-eared Girls. Lin Ye hadn’t expected his words to cause such panic among them.
Hearing Lin Ye’s words, everyone finally calmed down.
When the Beast-eared Girls asked if it was witchcraft, Lin Ye nodded without hesitation this time. However, the Beast-eared Girls immediately bombarded him with various questions. “Ye, how did you know there was a river underground?” “Yeah, Ye, did you see it with witchcraft?” “Ye, can you see things underground?”
The Detection Spell was genuine witchcraft.
So, in a sense, Lin Ye was already a true witch.
Xing, seeing Lin Ye nod, excitedly took two steps forward.
After defeating the Pig-headed Tribe, everyone saw that Lin Ye had not brought up the matter again.
The Beast-eared Girls thought that Lin Ye did not know true witchcraft, so they did not mention it again, fearing they might upset Lin Ye.
But they didn’t expect that Lin Ye would now admit that he could indeed use witchcraft.
Xing took two steps forward, stared intently at Lin Ye, and then said excitedly, word by word, “Ye… Ye… Ye.”
Xing was so excited that she couldn’t speak properly. After swallowing, she continued, “Ye, are you really capable of witchcraft? Is it really witchcraft?”
