Chronicles of Primordial Wars Chapter 9: As long as it is good, we believe everything you say
Shao Xuan is now a little Cave Master at best, and there are some little farts in the hole.
For the fish that was brought over, Shao Xuan removed the internal organs and gills in accordance with the previous two Warrior practices. There was a special place for throwing garbage in the hole. Shao Xuan was directly thrown there, where various leftover residues were accumulated. Every few days the tribe will send someone to clean up.
Except for the fish that can't stand still, everything else is completely eaten, leaving only a broken skeleton and that mouth full of fangs.
The children in the cave fell asleep after eating the fish. Shao Xuan left a torch, put out the fire, and took the torch to look deep into the hole. He had planned to change some food and animal skin before the winter came, but now he took over the hole and found out the fishing method. He thought about bringing some people to get more fish tomorrow. There is more food in the pool and it is guaranteed in winter. After all, there is not much food provided by the tribe.
People in the tribe are now rushing to eat food before winter, and every day they see people making dried meat to preserve food. If more fish can be obtained, not only will the situation in the cave be improved, but fish can also be used to exchange warm fur with tribal people. Shao Xuan does not want to be frozen in winter.
Walking in the hole with a torch, Shao Xuan took a rough look at the fire, which was not too bright. The last time I saw it, it was not long since I first came to this world. I woke up and walked around for a while, and then I didn't look deeper.
The so-called new officer takes three fires, and I will take charge of my site. The fire was burning and the site had to be re-planned.
Early tribes were small. When there were few people, they lived here. They made arrangements in the caves, excavated places for food, firewood, fur, tools and weapons, and toilets, but then everyone went out to build them. After the room and the hole were used to support the helpless children, it started to be messy and a lot of places were left out. The children of twenty only concentrated near the entrance of the hole, and there was a lot of remaining space.
There are also vents in the depths of the cave, just because no one has walked in for a long time, and it is blocked, even if it comes in during the day, it is dark.
After a brief look around, Shao Xuan returned to the entrance of the cave, paved the hay that had been exposed during the day, and put out the fire extinguisher to go to sleep. But tonight I do n’t know why, I just ca n’t sleep. Things in the cave, fish in the river, and the illusion you saw when fishing during the day.
Thinking about it, Shao Xuan always felt that there was a pair of eyes looking at it, but I didn't know who it was.
The fire went out and the hole was very dark. The moonlight outside came in through the vents, with a dark blue color that belonged to the night.
The children in the cave are all asleep, and they can hear one after another. The entrance of the cave has long been blocked by a thick straw curtain, and there is no abnormality there.
Beside Shao Xuan, Caesar lay there quietly and slept there. It didn't hear any abnormal sound, which proved that there should be no danger.
could it be that Which child in the cave did not sleep and stared at himself?
Slightly shook his head, Shao Xuan wrapped tightly in animal skin clothes, closed his eyes and planned to sleep, and he would take these youngsters out for fishing tomorrow.
It ’s just that I have n’t closed my eyes for a long time. Shao Xuan seems to have a flash of black shadow. The black shadow is too fast, so Shao Xuan has no time to see it clearly. Dark blue glowing eyes appeared.
What? !!
Shao Xuan trembled and opened his eyes sharply.
The surroundings are still the same as before, the inside of the cave is dark, and only the place where the moonlight comes in is still a bit hazy.
Shao Xuan is now completely unable to sleep. He turned over and saw the vent cut out of the cave wall above.
Even at night, the vents will not be blocked and there will be no trouble.
Thinking about it, Shao Xuan got up, because the place where he slept was originally higher, now as long as he stands up, he can see the outside through the vent.
There is moonlight outside, but the inside of the cave should be brighter, and you can see the nearby scenery faintly.
There is a stone pillar that is nearly five meters high outside the cave. It was erected here in the early years and functions like a sundial. People who lived in the cave at that time would judge the approximate time based on the shadow of the stone pillar in the sun. Now the people of the tribe have left, and the children in the cave will still scribe on the stone pillars when they go out. In addition to the wind and sun, the stone pillars are not as already as before, and the pillars are potty. The shape stands there.
Now a bird stands on top of the stone pillar.
The bird Shao Xuan understanding, when he first saw it, he thought it was a bat, and later learned that this is a bird that looks like a swallow, flying very fast, only moving at night, and this kind of Birds eat meat.
The people of the tribe call them Night Swallow, which is very similar to the bat's nickname known to Shao Xuan. Unfortunately, it is much more brutal than bats. It also likes to live in groups, and sometimes it is a large group.
So few people in the tribe would go out in the dark, and if you go out, you would light a torch, otherwise it would be vulnerable to Night Swallow attacks.
Most people do n’t hear this Night Swallow call, but the tribe people say that the powerful Warrior can actually hear its sound. According to legend, the sound of Night Swallow is harsh, but most people have not heard it. Just word of mouth.
While Shao Xuan looked over the stone pillar, the Night Swallow resting on the stone pillar also came over keenly.
In the moonlight, the eyes of Night Swallow reflected dark blue light, just like the image that came to mind when Shao Xuan closed his eyes just now.
Night Swallow will not come in from the vents of the cave. They like to stand in the distance and watch, then find the target of the order, and attack in groups. In the past six months, Shao Xuan has never seen an Night Swallow drill into a hole, but if anyone does not go out with a torch at night, he will definitely be attacked.
Gently exhaling, Shao Xuan stopped looking outside and lay down to continue to sleep.
I knew what the flashes of dark shadows and dark blue eyes were just in my mind, but Shao Xuan did not immediately fall asleep.
Shao Xuan feels that he seems to be able to "see" nearby dangerous creature, such as the fish during the day, and the bird standing outside now.
The next morning, the weather was fine and the sun was shining.
Shao Xuan, as usual, get up and bundle up the hay and take it out for a while.
Clap your palm, Shao Xuan said to the large piece lying in the cave: "Are you awake? How many people wake up, get up and follow me to fish."
Nothing.
"The fish caught can be eaten, just like yesterday." Shao Xuan continued.
A little bit of motion, but not much.
Some children still fall asleep, thunder doesn't wake up, and some even wake up. After hearing Shao Xuan, they have to tangle again. After all, the habit that has been developed for a long time cannot be changed because of Shao Xuan. They are used to going to bed at this time of the day and sleeping till the afternoon waiting for food. Some people even opened their eyes but didn't wake up, yawned and went to sleep.
Finally, there were only four people from twenty who followed Shao Xuan. The two oldest people in the cave were among them. The remaining two are called Tu, who is timid and blindly so domineering; the other is Ba, who has a stuttering speech and is relatively stingy. Of course, predatory ones Except time. Both children are eleven years old, but the physical differences are obvious. Babi Tu is a head taller and looks similar to the two oldest thirteen-year-old children in the cave. Tu is very thin and similar to Shao Xuan.
Shao Xuan let Caesar dig some Stone Worm. The straw rope was used yesterday. The black hemisphere that can float on the water was also held. Then he brought four children together to the river bank.
The two who are responsible for guarding today are the same as yesterday. Warrior They didn't go back last night, they had to watch for three consecutive nights to change other people. See Shao Xuan They also greeted with a smile and said a few words.
This makes the other four children in the cave very strange. Usually they have not encountered such a situation when walking around the tribe. Because of the incident last night, the two older children had a lighter mind to compete with Shao Xuan. Seeing this situation now, their minds are even lighter. In their opinion, people who get along well with the Warrior in the tribe will always get a lot of benefits, and someone will help if they are in trouble, just like the previous library, because some people in understanding mountain side usually get less envy.
Shao Xuan got things ready and told the four of them what to do later.
"... That's it, it's very simple, just follow me for a while, and what I said, just follow the instructions. When the time comes, catch the fish and let's eat it separately."
As soon as I heard about eating, all four eyes brightened, and the expression of anxiety dissipated a lot when I saw the river.
The length of the straw rope is limited. This time, Shao Xuan did not plan to throw the bait far away, nor did it let Caesar help. The next four children replaced the position of Caesar yesterday, and Caesar squatted quietly beside.
Four children are holding the straw rope in their hands and they are all very nervous. In addition to the tension of first contact with the river creature, they also have the excitement of fishing for the first time.
"Okay, don't move now, listen to my password later." Shao Xuan threw the bait and said, staring at the water.
Soon, there is movement in the water. The third time fishing, Shao Xuan has experience, and immediately shouted: "Pull!"
After hearing the words of Shao Xuan, the four children tightened the rope and pulled back hard.
After all, the four children are stronger than Caesar. This time the fish pull is quite smooth. The fish being pulled up is similar to the fish caught in Shao Xuan for the first time yesterday.
The first time the four children saw the live fish, it was still extremely lethal. After Shao Xuan let them release their hands, they immediately picked up the wooden sticks around them and smashed the fish, especially the slaughter. He was timid and leaned forward, while waving a wooden stick to hit the fish head, and screaming in horror, he heard that Shao Xuan wanted to beat him.
"That's it! Stop!" Shao Xuan stopped their movements and pulled away the four children who were swinging around with a stick around the fish.
Shao Xuan told them about the danger of this kind of fish from the beginning, so they took longer tools and took precautions when fishing. Now, the four children are on guard. Unfortunately, the first fishing was the first hunt in their lives. They were too excited. Various emotions were mixed in together. When they started, they were totally savage and full of energy. All vented, four people joined forces, and for a while, when Shao Xuan pulled them to look at the fish ... That was a terrible sight.
This is how to eat it.
The first fish was thrown aside, and Shao Xuan commanded them to catch the second one. This time it was kept intact, killing the fish and digging off the internal organs, and then went to the two Warrior to borrow the fire and grill the fish. Already.
The fish although brought back to the hole by Shao Xuan last night looks bigger, but there are too many bones, and the proportion of edible parts is not large. In addition, there are many children with twenty in the hole, which are distributed to each person's mouth. Very few. But today is not.
A half-meter-long fish is divided into five people. Everyone can eat a lot of fish with more bones.
Four children are very excited. They do n’t know how to express when they are short of speech. They have to eat while they laugh, so they laugh like **.
"It's delicious," Tu said.
"Well, eat fish and brain." Shao Xuan said.
"What is brain-buying?" one child asked.
Shao Xuan thought about it and explained briefly: "It's just that you will grow better."
"Looks ... more ... better, is ... if ... can ... become stronger ... bigger? Same as ... picture ... Totem ... Warrior ..." Stuttering ask.
After hearing the stutter, the other three children also looked up at Shao Xuan, eyes flashing.
The although child in the hole has more aggressive temperament, but he doesn't hide his emotions too much.
At this moment, the four children look at the expressions of Shao Xuan, they seem to be urging Shao Xuan: You say quickly, you say, as long as it is good, we believe everything you say.
So, Shao Xuan swallowed back the words that were about to be exported. After a pause, he murmured "Huh" unintentionally.
The river buffers gently brushing the river bank. The water surface looks calm and calm, but just now, Shao Xuan "see" the image of the fish mouth full of fangs, which is much larger than yesterday, but the image is relatively light, probably that The big fish is far away.
Danger and opportunity coexist in the freshwater river, which is beyond sight.
The winter rations are here. Shao Xuan thought.
