He brought everyone back to the Snake Tribe. On the way, they passed by a forest. Ye Xuan used his spiritual power to chop down some slender trees and let the warriors of the Snake Tribe carry them back.
As for why he didn't let the people of the Snake Tribe do it, it was because the people of the Snake Tribe were still in the Stone Age. If they were to use stone tools to chop down trees, it would waste a lot of time.
After returning to the tribe, Ye Xuan first let the people of the Snake Tribe deal with the four goats that died because they fell into the trap. Then, he taught the warriors of the Snake Tribe to carry the tree trunks into the cave. They found a corner and surrounded it with tree trunks.
The cave that the Snake Tribe lived in was nearly 3000 square meters. Although it wasn't big, it wasn't small either. Ye Xuan let the people of the Snake Tribe surround the cave with tree trunks and use straw ropes to connect all the tree trunks. This way, it became a cage that was about 100 square meters.
After setting up the cage, Ye Xuan let the people of the Snake Tribe put the four goats that were still alive inside and closed the door.
Then …
Well, there was no then.
There was still no change in the sky. There was no trace of the Heavenly Merit either.
As the saying goes, the heavens can't be deceived. It seems like I thought it was too easy to obtain the Heavenly Merit.
Shaking his head, Ye Xuan didn't feel depressed. The reason why he wanted to obtain the Heavenly Merit was because he wanted to understand the fragments of the Heavenly Law. For him now, the Heavenly Merit was just a catalyst to increase his cultivation. It wasn't a necessity.
Therefore, it was good to obtain the Heavenly Merit. But if he couldn't, Ye Xuan wouldn't be too conflicted.
Besides, even if he did not get the Merit of the Heavenly Way, he would still do what he had to do. After all, it was his intention to help the people of the snake tribe live a better life, not for the Merit of the Heavenly Way.
He told the people of the Snake Tribe to get some fresh grass for the goats to eat when they were free. He also told them to raise the goats well. If there was no food in the future, they could catch goats to eat.
This way, the people of the Snake Tribe understood. Their eyes suddenly lit up.
In the past, when they hunted, they had to use their weapons to kill their prey. In this way, it would be hard to preserve the prey after it died, so they could only eat it.
But now, with the method of using traps to catch prey taught by Ye Xuan, not only could they hunt more easily, but they could also catch live prey.
As long as they could bring these prey back to raise, they wouldn't have to starve like before even if they didn't manage to hunt any prey in the future.
Walking out of the cave, Ye Xuan looked at the people of the Snake Tribe down below. Most of the people of the Snake Tribe were weaving straw ropes and wooden frames. He even saw a few cage nets that had already been made.
Ye Xuan could not help but nod slightly at the sight of this. It looked like the snake tribe would be full of fish in less than two days.
Previously, he had checked the river on the plain. Not only was it very wide and endless, but there were also a lot of fish in it. He didn't know if it was because no one had been fishing for a long time or if there was something special about the upstream. In any case, not to mention the people of the Snake Tribe, even if there were thousands of people, they still wouldn't be able to finish it.
However, if the people of the Snake Tribe really caught that many fish, it would be a waste if they couldn't finish it.
Ye Xuan thought for a moment. Then, he called dozens of warriors of the Snake Tribe to come down. They found an open area and started digging.
After a series of events, the people of the Snake Tribe had long believed in Ye Xuan as a god. No, he had already become the supreme god in the eyes of the Snake Tribe. Regarding his orders, the people of the Snake Tribe wouldn't resist at all. Under his command, they began to dig with simple stone tools and wooden spears.
Seeing the people of the Snake Tribe use simple stone tools or wooden spears to pick up the soil on the ground and then use some wide leaves to pour the soil outside, Ye Xuan couldn't help but frown.
The reason why he asked the people of the Snake Tribe to dig the hole was because Ye Xuan wanted to help them make a fish pond. As long as there was a fish pond, they wouldn't lack food even if it was winter or if there were any dangers outside.
With his cultivation, if he really wanted to make a fish pond, he only needed to wave his hand to make one.
However, he didn't do this because he didn't want the people of the Snake Tribe to rely on him too much. Humans should be self-reliant and have their own survival abilities. Only then would they be able to survive in this desolate land.
However, it took dozens of strong warriors of the Snake Tribe more than half an hour to dig the top layer of soil. If they were allowed to work like this, they might not be able to make a fish pond even after working for half a month.
After pondering for a moment, Ye Xuan walked to the forest in the distance and directly cut down a few big trees with his Zhen Yuan. Then, he took some stones and refined them with his Zhen Yuan, making them more solid. After that, he made some hoes, wooden shovels, carrying poles, baskets, and other tools. Afterwards, he taught the people of the Snake Tribe how to use them.
After using these tools, the people of the Snake Tribe immediately felt that these tools made by Ye Xuan were much more practical than their previous way of digging. Moreover, they could make them faster. They couldn't help but happily speed up the digging.
After using the tools made by Ye Xuan, he especially refined them with his Zhen Yuan to make them more solid. Unlike the simple stone and wooden tools that the people of the Snake Tribe made before, they could break with just a little bit of force. Very soon, dozens of people had dug a pit that was nearly half a meter deep.
However, Ye Xuan still felt that it wasn't enough. He planned to make the fish pond about 50 meters in diameter and 1 meter deep. According to this speed, it would take the people of the Snake Tribe about three days to finish digging.
After ordering the warriors of the Snake Tribe to finish digging, Ye Xuan thought for a moment and called some people of the Snake Tribe. He used his Zhen Yuan to make some buckets and carrying poles and had them carry water from the river.
This time, Ye Xuan didn't go with them. He had his own things to do. He asked the people of the Snake Tribe to carry water back. Then, Ye Xuan called some people to collect wood and stones. Then, he called some people to go to the other side of the Snake Tribe.
This was because in the Shaman's memory, there was a piece of red soil on the other side of the Snake Tribe. This red soil was just right for him to make something …
