Chapter 1127 The Great Prophet Sun Mo(1/3)
Hui Yan returned home and after drinking some water, his irritable mood calmed down.
He was too reckless. Even if Sun Mo accidentally caused those maggots, he should not have rashly ordered them to be burned.
After all, he is someone who has comprehended witchcraft.
"It's just some maggots. If you burn them, they'll burn. Could it be that they are really useful?"
Gray Rock comforted himself.
Maggots breed after some corpses rot, and within a few days, they will turn into flying insects and lay eggs everywhere. By then, the tribe will be too dirty to live in.
"Hey, it would be great if the children in the tribe could quickly learn witchcraft."
Gray rock has a headache.
He didn't doubt Sun Mo's sincerity. If he didn't teach him seriously, Gray Stone wouldn't be able to perform animal transformation witchcraft, so it could only mean that this thing requires talent.
Hey, how great would it be if Sun Mo were a member of the Gray Rock Tribe?
To put it bluntly, Hui Yan was still wary and did not regard Sun Mo as one of his own.
…
When Sun Mo returned to the tribe, he saw thick smoke billowing and someone was dumping maggots into the bonfire.
The maggots were roasted, making a crackling sound and a foul smell.
"Go and fetch the chief!"
Sun Mo ordered.
"I go!"
Gu Xiuxun temporarily works as Sun Mo's secretary.
"Master Sun!"
When Huiyan arrived, he was still far away, so he laughed and took the initiative to explain: "I saw that there were maggots in that stone house, so I asked someone to clean it for you."
"That's what I raised!"
Sun Mo's tone was cold.
"Well!"
The chief was choked.
Is it really you who raised him?
He really wanted to ask, are you out of your mind?
Other primitive people also looked shocked, and then became confused.
"Why do you keep this thing? You won't really eat it, right?"
"This stuff is very dirty and will kill you if you eat it."
"I can't figure it out!"
Primitive people murmured that there was too little food in this era, so some people ate maggots, but without exception, they all died.
"The first generation of maggots must be full of bacteria and cannot be eaten by humans or animals, but after a few generations, there will be no problem."
Sun Mo explained.
"What are bacteria?"
Everyone was confused.
"You don't understand even if I tell you."
Sun Mo didn't bother to explain: "Chief, do you know what is the biggest enemy of mankind? It is arrogance! Now you are looking at a new thing with your backward and conservative eyes."
"What do you mean?"
Huiyan didn't look good. After all, he was also the head of the clan who wanted to save face.
"You went hunting and saw a lot of pheasants and ducks, right? How did they get there?"
Sun Mo asked back.
"Haha, you don't even know this? Of course it was born from a hen and a duck. Could it be that it was born from a stone?"
The gray bird sneered.
"Then what?"
Sun Mo asked again.
"Then it grew up, was caught by us, and became our food."
Gray Bird smiled: "Don't worry, we are different from the people of the Red Rock Tribe. Even if we are hungry and can't bear it anymore, we will not kill the cubs."
"You also know that you have to wait until the animals grow up before killing them?"
Sun Mo pouted: "Since animals can grow up in the wild, why can't they grow up in tribes?"
The primitive people were silent.
They have no concept of such things as animal husbandry.
"If pheasants and wild ducks can grow up in the tribe, will it save the effort of hunting?"
Sun Mo asked again.
"Yeah, why didn't I think of that before?"
"I have thought about it, but how much food does this thing need to eat? We all can't have enough to eat!"
"I once raised a bird that my father caught for me, but it died within a few days."
Primitive people started talking again. Among them, the children raised chickens and birds, but they were just toys.
"Master Sun, the former great prophet, has thought about this kind of thing. Not to mention that they eat too much every day, and they just keep dying, which is very troublesome."
The chief is not stupid.
"That's why we need to raise maggots. As long as they are taken care of, they reproduce very quickly and produce continuously all year round. They are the most suitable feed for chickens and ducks."
Sun Mo’s popular science: “As for chickens and ducks that are sick, they can be treated. If it’s troublesome, just kill the sick ones quickly to avoid infection.”
Some primitive people were apparently silent.
Of course, everyone knows about maggots. A dead body will be covered with maggots in a few days. That's enough for chickens and ducks to eat.
"But the maggot turns into a flying insect!"
Graybird argued.
"That's why we need to raise maggots scientifically and form an echelon. Those that can't be eaten should be disposed of in advance before the maggots turn into flies."
Sun Mo knocked on his head: "Use your brain more."
Huiyan has been silent all this time, but to be able to become a chief, he is not only a powerful and reckless man, but also has a good mind.
If Sun Mo can really do what he said, then the tribe's food will suddenly be plentiful.
Thinking that every family has endless chickens and ducks to eat, Hui Yan gets excited. I'm afraid only the gods are qualified to live this day, right?
"Master Sun, do you know how to raise maggots?"
Someone asked anxiously.
"Teacher, if you don't know how, where did these maggots come from? I told you not to burn them, but you just didn't listen."
Gray Stone was very angry.
The teacher's hard work was all in vain.
"Master Sun, er, Prophet Sun, it's all my fault."
Hui Yan was at a loss and quickly changed his name, feeling like a sinner.
What?
Never admit your mistake?
He was afraid that Sun Mo would become angry and defect to the Hongyan tribe. Once they learn witchcraft, his tribe would be in catastrophe.
Of course, although Huiyan has a short-sighted vision, he has a heart that thinks about the tribe, so he apologizes.
"Have you ever thought that since chickens and ducks are difficult to raise, why not raise cattle and sheep? These two animals eat grass."
Sun Mo taught: "The child is too young to go hunting, but he can cut the grass, right?"
Most of the time, the food of the tribesmen is not enough. Even if there is occasionally excess, they will be dried and made into jerky.
"If the ewes give birth to lambs, even if they are less, two at a time, you will have a flock in a few years."
Sun Mo was bewildered.
Sure enough, the women's eyes suddenly became eager.
Even in modern times, who doesn’t want to live a better life?
