Old Ke didn’t tell anyone about Shao Xuan’s weird speed of Ascension, and according to observations in the next few days, Shao Xuan found that they had never mentioned it to anyone. Therefore, the people of the tribe looked at Shao Xuan’s At that time, he just praised him as a brave warrior, a warrior blessed by our ancestors. Apart from that, there was nothing else, even Ge, who often ran to Old Ke, didn’t know.

After returning, Shao Xuan sent some food for the hunt to several familiar houses. Of course, Lao Ke and Ge will not fall there. There are also Ai Yi who helps Shao Xuan sew things, the person who teaches numbers, and The children over the cave wait.

I have already learned about the polishing of stone tools. Wu and the leader sent some stone cores with very good stone materials. Shao Xuan polished a few spearheads, and Old Ke has polished the tooth knife with the broken tip again. The appearance is not very good. , But it’s okay.

“Look, how about this one?” Shao Xuan handed the polished stone spearhead to Old Ke.

Old Ke slowly raised his eyelids and looked at him slowly, without getting started, he said directly: “Yes.”

It is extremely difficult to get a “yes” evaluation from Lao Ke, because even the works of many stoneware masters in the tribe will be relentlessly criticized as “waste” by Lao Ke. In contrast, Shao Xuan’s current Polishing Kung Fu is already quite proficient.

Shao Xuan put the polished stone tools aside, leaned in front of Old Ke with a smile, and said, “You see that the technology of my polished stone tools is almost the same. You also said that if I want to improve my technology, I can only practice more. …Are you ready for the next stage of teaching?”

What Lao Ke was famous for back then was not a stone polishing tool, but a very powerful set of skills!

“Want to learn?” Old Ke asked in a deep voice, “It’s very hard.”

“Of course! I’m not afraid of hardship!” Shao Xuan nodded quickly.

“Yes, you will come back tomorrow morning.”

“Hey, okay, then I’ll go first!” Shao Xuan still helped Lao Ke set up the stone pot and chopped the firewood before leaving.

After Shao Xuan left, Old Ke couldn’t help showing a smile on his expressionless face.

Early the next morning, when Shao Xuan took Caesar to Old Ke’s side, Old Ke was already waiting.

“Bring it on.” Old Ke pointed to a small wooden box next to him, and walked out with his cane.

Shao Xuan hurriedly went over to lift the box, it was not too heavy, and did not open it to see what was inside.

Caesar was yawning when he was knocked on his head by a wooden cane. He bared his teeth and looked over, and saw that it was Old Ke, and quickly put his teeth away again. Unexpectedly, Old Ke also walked up to Caesar and sat down on the wolf’s back, almost crushing Caesar who was not prepared.

Caesar moved uneasily, and was passed over by Old Ke with two crutches, and he was honest. Near the foot of the mountain, it is not afraid of others, it is afraid of Lao Ke.

“Go to the training place.” Old Ke pointed to the direction with his crutches.

“Oh.” Shao Xuan carried the box and went over there.

Caesar is now one year old and grows fast. He often helps Shao Xuan and Lao Ke to haul things. It’s natural to carry Lao Ke with him. It was just unprepared just because he almost fell.

So, when Ge was chewing and swaying while holding a piece of dried meat in the morning, he saw Old Ke sitting comfortably on the back of a wolf with a cane, and Ge almost choked with surprise.

Ge only became acquainted with Lao Ke later. He was also a handicapped tribe. He was not idle and had a thick skin, so he often ran to Lao Ke.

In Ge’s view, Lao Ke is too strong. After losing a leg, he quit the hunting team without letting others help. In the end, he moved directly down the mountain, separated from the teammates who lived on the mountain, and refused to accept others. Gifting, I think it is charity, hurts self-esteem, every year when I go up the mountain to participate in the ceremony, I don’t let people hold it, don’t let people carry it, don’t let people carry it, just move a walking stick and walk slowly up the mountain. It seems that for fear that others will say that he can’t walk, he will walk by himself wherever he goes, and he will be stubborn for decades.

But now?

Who is sitting on the back of the wolf?

Dare to treat wolves differently from people, right? Stop walking by yourself? Are you afraid of being said?

What about your so-called “self-esteem”? Was it eaten by Caesar? !

There are a few low mountains overgrown with trees on the training site. Everyone usually gets wood there. There are not many plant species. Animals have nothing to eat except for the particularly powerful stone flying squirrels. It was eaten up.

The felling makes the trees here far less robust than the hunting forests, but they are enough for normal use. Thicker ones also have thicker buckets.

Why do people hunt? The answer is: in order to pursue an adaptation strategy that maximizes energy.

Vegetables and fruits, grains, river fish, animal meat, etc. are all in the tribal recipes. Vegetables, fruits and grains can be found in the surrounding low mountains, but there are not many. River fish was newly added last year. People near the foot of the mountain eat more. As for animal meat, this is the staple food of the tribe and the food with the most energy in the recipe, especially high-level animal meat.

Therefore, hunting of tribes not only follows the development strategy formulated by the ancestors, but also to meet their own energy needs. The higher the level of warriors, the more inclined to high-energy food, and low-energy food does not help them much.

In hunting, in addition to assassination, cutting and slaughtering, it also uses the method of setting traps. Good lasso and traps can become extremely dangerous latent killers.

Old Ke used to be a man who made a latent killer.

After getting off Caesar’s back, Old Ke did not immediately teach Shao Xuan how to set a lasso, but first talked to Shao Xuan about things to pay attention to, such as how to use the environment and how to hide the trap.

After finishing the explanation, Lao Ke started to set up a set, starting from the simple, while busy, explaining to Shao Xuan the key technology points contained in each step. Different types of sets, such as opening sets, junction sets, flat sets, etc. have their own characteristics, and there are many changes made according to the type of prey.

How big is the ban? How much is the appropriate amount of the perimeter of the head of the prey? Is the connecting line used for the type of sleeve better than animal hair or straw rope? Double-sided or single-sided or composite? Or, need to make a chain set? Do you need to dig a hole? Is there a knife stake?

Although he had seen Lang Ga set up a set, after listening to Lao Ke’s explanation, Shao Xuan realized that the two people’s styles are really different.

Lang Ga’s family also set traps, and Lang Ga’s grandfather set up very well, but the other party has a different style from Lao Ke.

Lao Ke’s trap, to put it simply, is more insidious, more extreme, and more pursuing a set of kills.

After demonstrating a few simple traps, Old Ke asked Shao Xuan to try.

However, to set the lasso, you have to start with weaving straw ropes. The straw ropes I brought over were all used up just now.

“How about you rubbing the grass rope? Do you want to teach you again? Rubbing the grass rope and knotting the knot are very important to a good lasso.” Old Ke said.

Shao Xuan rubbed the straw rope in his hand, and instead of answering directly, he asked: “Do you know what my name’Xuan’ means?”

Old Ke’s tying the knot paused, he really didn’t know.

The people of the tribe may only choose a simple picture, and call it whatever they think of. For example, the name of the old ketah own; or use familiar things or memorial things, such as spears; or use onomatopoeia Make a name, such as chanting.

Lifting his eyelids, Old Ke waited for Shao Xuan’s answer.

Shao Xuan shook the straw rope in his hand, shook his fingers, and then tightened, and a simple knot was completed. Hehe smiled and said, “Don’t you think that Xuanzi looks like a knot made by a twisted straw rope?”

He didn’t lie. When he was born in the last life, his grandmother was rubbing the straw rope. Later, when he was about to name him, the old man turned over an oracle bone inscription at home, and suddenly saw the twist-like “Xuan” character. , His grandmother said, “How does this character look like a straw rope we rubbed, just call it.”

In the tribe’s text, it is also very similar to the oracle bone inscriptions, so Shao Xuan’s explanation will not make people doubt it.

Old Ke looked at a rope loop that was woven next to Shao Xuan, and then at the knot that Shao Xuan was tying on. They were all demonstrated by him just now, and they only demonstrated it once!

Several of them are the knots he designed when he was hunting. It looks simple but it is very complicated when hitting. It is slightly deviated. The result is a waste. The effect of the set will be very poor. The cunning ones in the forest. As long as the prey catches a gap, they can escape.

As a pursuer of a set of must-kill methods, Lao Ke also has very strict requirements on knots. But……

I also plan to teach it slowly. After all, many people didn’t have a complete section after studying for a long time, but I didn’t expect this kid to be able to successfully type it out with just a glance!

Twitching the corners of his mouth, Old Ke thought to himself: Is this kid born to learn this trick?

This is really…so Tamar excited!
