I am a Primitive Man

Chapter 17 Surprised Elder Brother

The elder brother led the eight men and twelve women in the tribe to walk in the snow, and the freezing cold made them all shrink back.

A small icicle hangs on the beard of the second senior brother's chin who is potbellied and likes to drool.

The group of people trekked hard in the snow, the cold and hunger and long-distance walking had already consumed all their strength and heat.

The atmosphere in the team was low.

All the strong labor forces in the tribe were mobilized and worked hard for a whole day in the cold and snow, and all they got were two skinny pheasants...

Under such circumstances, it would be strange if their emotions could be lifted.

The leading elder brother seemed very dull and worried. He was the leader of the tribe and needed to worry about a series of things.

Without food, the stress on him was great.

It seems that the food supply can only be reduced further. Except for the few people whose food was reduced at the beginning, the children in the tribe and those women who are too weak to be able to move in the snow for a long time need to reduce the food distribution.

Let the able-bodied eat the little food. Only in this way can we save enough strength to find food for the tribe and allow the tribe to continue.

Eldest brother doesn't want to implement such a method. If possible, he would like everyone in the tribe to have enough to eat. It's just reality...

The familiar cave is right in front of you. Inside the cave is a warm fire, warm hay and fur, and even your own tribe.

But the elder brother seemed a little hesitant, he didn't want to bring the sad news of no prey back to the tribe...

The blocked cave door was suddenly opened, and a group of children and the women left behind poured out from inside.

They cheered and ran towards the eldest brother and others who had returned from hunting.

Seeing this scene, the elder brother became more and more depressed.

From the current situation, he can guess that the clansmen left in the cave must have been hiding at the entrance of the cave, watching eagerly through the gap left, hoping that he will wait for others to return from hunting and bring back enough Food, so that people in the tribe will no longer go hungry.

only……

It's just that I only brought back two skinny pheasants...

He looked at the crowd cheering and rushing towards them, and for a moment, the eldest brother had the idea of ​​wanting to run away.

leader!

leader!

The children in the tribe ran to the front, greeted the big brother, and ran towards their parents in the team.

The elder brother was a little strange, because these children who ran and the women who stayed in the cave were not as he imagined, and they showed a deep look of disappointment when they saw that the team did not bring back any prey.

When he saw Wu standing at the entrance of the cave looking here, the senior brother felt warm. Needless to say, Wu must have explained it in advance because he was worried that he and others would feel uncomfortable.

Thinking of this, he ignored the woman who was hesitant to speak, and walked quickly to the entrance of the cave, bent down to Wu who was looking at him peacefully and smiling, and called out respectfully: Wu.

The voice seemed a little low, full of guilt, shame and heart-warming.

Wu smiled and reached out to touch his head, patted his shoulder and said, Go back, warm up.

The elder brother's eyes were a little wet, he nodded vigorously, lowered his head slightly, and entered the cave.

Standing at the entrance of the cave, Wu touched the heads of everyone who came back one by one, and said, Go back and keep warm.

This is an encouragement for them to brave the severe cold to go hunting for the tribe.

Han Cheng stood watching from the sidelines, nodding secretly for Wu's wisdom. After his actions, the atmosphere of the whole hunting team has been greatly improved, and everyone has become more united.

fish?!

A lot of fish?!

Hearing the unbelievable exclamation of the big brother coming out of the cave,

Everyone who knew the inside story, including Wu and many children, laughed happily.

Among them, the happiest laugher was Limp, who was limping, and laughed until he burst into tears.

Hearing the exclamation of the big brother, and seeing the expressions of the people who stayed in the cave, the rest of the people who did not enter the cave couldn't help but wonder what happened in the tribe on the day when I was waiting for someone to go hunting thing? How can there be fish?

Looking at the hundreds of fish piled together in the cave, everyone who returned from hunting outside fell into a state of sluggishness.

They couldn't figure out why there were so many fish in the tribe suddenly when there were no fish now?

Of course, not everyone was too shocked. For example, the second senior brother, after the first moment of shock, this guy's saliva immediately flowed out...

Wu, this... this...

The eldest brother didn't know what to say for a while, and asked Wu about things.

Wu's face was full of smiles. He pointed to Han Cheng who was standing on the side, and pointed to the lame man who seemed a little restrained at the moment, and began to tell...

The flames in the cave ignited, and the smell of grilled fish spread in the cave. The oppressive atmosphere caused by the food crisis was swept away, and the cheerful atmosphere infected everyone.

The senior brother made a big fuss tonight, and this time he brought out a total of forty fish.

Let the people in the cave who haven't had a good meal for a long time have a full meal.

Forty fish were grilled, and they were all placed in a high pile on the stone slab where food was usually placed.

The elder brother first selected a fish of suitable size and was very delicate, held it in both hands and sent it to Wu who had returned to the deepest part of the cave.

Then he came back again, but instead of taking some food and taking his family away as before, he carefully selected a fish about one foot long and walked towards Han Cheng holding it in both hands.

He bent down to Han Cheng and said, Fish, eat.

Han Cheng waved his hand to the elder brother, indicating that the elder brother didn't need to do this, but the elder brother insisted on refusing, so Han Cheng could only smile and take the grilled fish from him.

The elder brother returned to the food pile again, and this time he picked out the largest fish that was more than two feet long and weighed nearly ten catties.

Just when everyone thought that the elder brother was going to take away and eat the biggest fish, something unexpected happened to them.

The elder brother held the fish in both hands, walked to the outermost lame, bent down to the lame, and said, Fish, eat.

Limp was stunned by the elder brother's move, he waved his hands awkwardly and shook his head again and again.

The elder brother put the fish directly into his arms and said, Eat.

Then he smiled and touched his lame head before going back to fetch food for himself.

Standing there with the biggest fish in his arms, he was a little dazed for a while, but after a while, he suddenly burst into tears...
