Chronicles of Primordial Wars Chapter 16: The arrival of winter

When Shao Xuan went back, the children in the cave returned from the river already. Today's harvest is good. Seeing the unstoppable smile on their faces, we know that there are two groups who have more fish than anyone.

"Ah'Xuan, someone came to you to change something, and you were not there, they said that they would come again." Tu said sitting next to the straw rope.

When I was in the cave before, the guts were relatively small and thin, but during this time, I let go of a lot of people, and my spirits grew, and the words gradually grew.

"Okay, I see." Shao Xuan nodded.

It should be someone from the tribe again, who wants to go fishing. After exploring the experience, come to Shao Xuan for a black block that can float on the water.

At night, the moon hanging on both sides of the sky is darker. The crescents are thin, and you can only see the arc that is not bright. Looking out from the vents, the vicinity of the hole was dark, and only the sound of wind outside the hole and the sound made by the flying Night Swallow were heard. Winter is coming, Night Swallow has no spirit. When they flew before, Not so much.

For the next few days, whether it ’s a child in a cave or a person in a mountainous area, as long as the sun does n’t go down, he will run to the river to work diligently.

Probably the people of the tribe in the past have never thought about these fishes. There are many fish in the river. So many people pull fish here all day long. These fish are extremely aggressive, but the intelligence quotient is not high, and it is easy to pull. As long as you master the know-how, the number of pull fish will increase.

Fortunately, the pull of the fish was smooth for several days, and there was no creature with long tentacles.

Until one morning, Shao Xuan took Caesar to gravel to dig Stone Worm and found that Stone Worm was much less, and only three were dug in half a day.

There are fewer fish on the river. suddenly, Stone Worm throws it down for a long time before pulling up only a small fish.

Whether it ’s the children in the cave or the tribe, the situation seems to be a sign.

"Ah'Xuan, why is this happening?" The children in the cave stunned, staring at the straw rope in their hands, a broken heartbreak.

"Because winter is coming." An older child said that he once heard that in the winter, many prey will be hidden, you can't find how you can find it, only after the winter is over, they will Will come out again. Because of this, the people of the tribe do not like winter, because winter is full of depression caused by various difficulties.

Seeing other children still staring at themselves, Shao Xuan sighed, "It may indeed be the reason. Because in winter, Stone Worm will no longer appear on the ground, but will drill deep into the ground for winter, the ground is warmer than the ground. And the Piranha Fish on the river bank will leave the shallow waters on the shore, swim into the depths of the big river, and go to areas that will not freeze in winter. So we ca n’t catch Stone Worm, and we ca n’t pull fish. "

Shao Xuan's voice dropped, and there was a mood of depression and gloom in the cave.

In the impression of many children in the cave, the winter is very cold and dark, and sometimes I ’m sick, and I do n’t know. I just fell asleep so much that I was called to eat at a meal. Sleeping stupidly, I don't know the day and night outside, the walking dead. Usually nothing, now suddenly think back, and look at the recent sunny days of fishing, it is no wonder that I can feel good.

Other children are sad in the corner holding the fish they pulled this afternoon. They are sad and touch the fish head reluctantly. Just with the dark red eyes on the head of the already's dead fish, and the cracked mouth full of fine fangs, how this man looks strange is a fish, if it is placed in the peaceful era of Shao Xuan previous life, Such people are bound to be labeled "**" and "psychological distortion", but here is too normal.

Shao Xuan covered her face, looking away from there, no longer looking at the sad person holding the fish in the corner.

The hay used for sleeping in the hole has been moved out by the Shao Xuan these days. Even the fur that has been exchanged has been washed and dried. The preparation is actually sufficient, but no one can eliminate the coming of winter. The shadows of past experiences left a deep impression on the child's heart in the cave, and no matter how bright the sun was.

It's noon now, and the sky outside already has become gloomy.

When Shao Xuan was thinking about what to do in winter, the stammered sitting next to it came over.

"Ah'Xuan ... I ... I think ... I think ..."

I stuttered for a long time before expressing my meaning clearly.

Stomach also has a younger sister, who had no parents in that year. When he was sent to the cave, his younger sister was also adopted by a family of mountain side. Tribes value girls more, and those who adopt girls can also get more subsidies from the tribe.

Most people in this tribe will awaken Power of Totem. Boys will awaken when they are about ten years old, not too late, not more than fifteen, which is why these children in the cave live near the mountain foot district. Those children usually just eat and sleep regardless of other reasons, because they do not need to work hard, as long as they do not starve to death, they will naturally become Totem Warrior when they are old.

Compared to boys, there are fewer people awakening Power of Totem in girls. Nearly a third of them will not awaken in their lives. However, the tribe does not treat them as such. On the contrary, the girls are in the tribe. The treatment here is much better than that of boys, so even if they are also orphans, some families also accept girls with willing, which is why there is no girl living in this cave.

Stutter wants to visit his sister before the winter comes, and send a fish to him, and deduct from the share he got. He came to seek the opinions of Shao Xuan. Since Shao Xuan took the children in the hole to fish, their status is indestructible. As long as Shao Xuan agrees, the two older children will not refute even if they do n’t have willing in their hearts. Now, there are things that will ask for the opinions of Shao Xuan.

Stuttering Baba finished his meaning, standing there rubbing his fingers uneasily, he was worried that Shao Xuan would refuse, and his eyes looking at Shao Xuan were cautious.

"Of course you can, just come back before dark." Shao Xuan said.

"Thank Ah'Xuan!" Stuttered, ran back in excitement and dragged a fish out of the hole.

Looking at Gao Xingxing's stuttering when he left a fish, Shao Xuan smiled, "He thanked him for not stuttering. It seems to be agitated, maybe the excitement will be changed. It's over. "

Not long after the stuttering, Mo Er his mother is back again. The cause is still the same as before. It is necessary to bring Mo Er up the mountain. Unfortunately, Mo Er is not willing, even if his mother is soft and hard, there is no sigh of relief. It is estimated that the conflict with the child in the mountain a few days ago is quite big.

Finally Mo Er his mother left a thick fur sweater and some jerky meat and left with tears of eyes.

The grid brought food in the afternoon and brought Shao Xuan some jerky, and a animal skin blanket and a dress.

"This is from Mai. The clothes are from Lang Ga." Ge said, "They are busy today. Shaman indicates that it is going to be winter. Everyone is checking the house and preparing other matters, so please ask me for help. Stuff. "

Mai's Hunting Team came back yesterday and completed the last hunting operation of the year before the winter came. The harvest was very rich. Yesterday Shao Xuan saw them or carried or pulled the prey, enough to survive this winter, not to mention Hunting Team Many people still have food at home, and they will not be hungry in winter. Hunting Team Warrior returned yesterday with a relaxed smile.

Shao Xuan took a look at it. The dried meat is fresh and the meat is very good. The blankets and clothes are better than the fur he has exchanged these days.

It's impossible to say no touch.

"Thank you Uncle Ge, and by the way, thank me Uncle Mai and Lang Ga. Oh, right."

Shao Xuan dragged two fishes over and asked Ge to help bring Mai and Lang Ga. although knew that the prey they harvested this winter is enough for the winter, Shao Xuan would like to express their gratitude. These two fish belong to Shao Xuan's own share, and other people in the same group will naturally have no opinion.

"Hey, you're not afraid I'll cut the fish." Ge threw the fish into the empty stone jar of already, picked up stone jar with one arm and left.

Since Shaman said that it might be winter tomorrow, Shao Xuan told the others in the cave that the fur is already down. What should I do without him saying that this group of children can still protect themselves.

That night, the sky was dark, and a little crescent moon could be seen in the previous two days. Today already cannot see it at all.

It's so dark.

Shao Xuan wakes up in the middle of the night, feeling as if lying in ice and snow, shivering with cold. Strangely, it was not so cold after waking up.

Sit up, Shao Xuan will pull the thatch blocked in the vents a little bit, and the biting cold wind that was penetrated immediately gave the ice a shock.

Winter is here.

The arrival of winter has changed the life of the children in the cave, except that they eat and sleep. The temperature outside the cave is very low, they can't do anything when they wake up, they can only sleep, and look forward to leaving in the winter when they wake up next time.

With the food, the blankets on their bodies are also thick. They slept quite comfortably this winter, at least more comfortable than the winter in the impression, and they should sleep peacefully.

In winter, Ge still comes every day as usual, delivering food in the cold and snow. Shao Xuan didn't think it was necessary to suffer in this way. After discussing with him, he brought in the amount for three days at a time, and then came over every three days. Now the hole is not as confusing as it used to be. Ge knows that Shao Xuan can control the hole, and he has no objection. He left Shao Xuan with an igniter to let Shao Xuan ignite well.

In fact, winter is not without other things, such as the tribe sent down to teach literacy. As always, every 20 to 30 days, someone will come over and winter will be as usual.

On this day, it is the day when the instructor comes over. The day before yesterday, Shao Xuan brought a conversation to prepare Shao Xuan. When the province got it, the children in the cave fell asleep and they missed this rare learning opportunity.

So, when the Old Hunter responsible for teaching wrapped animal skin and lifted the curtain into the hole, before feeling the warmth brought by the fire in the cave, I saw that I should sleep on the ground and lie on the ground. All of the children were sitting there with trembling spirits, his eyes shining, and he saw that he was stunned.

Because he lived on the mountain, there were other delays in the previous section. already I have n’t been here for nearly forty days, and I do n’t know much about what happened in Xiashan District. Yesterday he went to the grid first and asked about the situation in the cave during this time. I was just asking routinely, but I did n’t expect twenty Come to the sky already Great changes have taken place.

When I heard that Shao Xuan, who was under ten years old, was in charge of managing the hole yesterday, the Old Hunter was still very dissatisfied. Isn't this bullying? The kids in the cave get along well? Before he went to teach in the cave, only the Shao Xuan child would learn it seriously. The Old Hunter had a good impression of Shao Xuan.

When he explained, he didn't believe it. Now, seeing the situation inside the cave with his own eyes, it seems that it is different ...

With twenty's unusually eager eyes, the Old Hunter stepped in stiffly and sat on the stone bench where he was sitting before. He took out a animal skin with the number in his arms, facing the fire. Looking at the light, I didn't take it wrong. I was sure it was this animal skin roll, and I cleared my throat.

"Ah, this, today, I will teach you how to count from one to ten. Listen, I will read it again, cough, one, two, three ..."

After reading it again, Old Hunter felt that the surrounding atmosphere was a bit wrong. I looked away from the animal skin roll and looked up. I saw that the eager eyesight around the circle just became impatient, and some of them were obviously wearing despise.

What? Impatient right from the start? Old Hunter was not happy, he used to be like this when he came over to teach. After reading the two numbers, the group yawned and went to sleep, annoying his old man.

While waiting for reprimand, Old Hunter heard a child complaining: "Let me listen to this without staying asleep in winter?"

"Just one to ten? This old man can't do it."

"Just!"

"Hey, old man, can you do it? Can you only have one to ten?"

"Ah'Xuan, just let the old man go and replace him."

"Just!"

"Substitution!"

"Substitution!"

"Let him go!"

Shao Xuan looked at the old man holding the animal skin roll and found that the old man's forehead was jumping suddenly.

No matter how rare, Old Hunter will never think of being killed, these cubs love to learn.
