I'm doing shopping in the original
Chapter 57
If Uro didn't have much idea about homeless people before, then seeing this flat-headed brother today, everything is clear.
Even if it is not clear enough, the few men who are practicing arrows are enough to explain the cause and effect clearly.
"Does... this kind of person eat people?" Uro asked subconsciously. A normal person would definitely ask a question when encountering such a thing. He felt that he had suddenly left the warm and safe tribe and came to danger alone. On the prairie, this half-human, half-beast Pingtouge brought him back the sense of crisis in the primitive society.
Especially after seeing those pieces of human skull clearly.
This matter is nothing to the usual Bai Lian and Mo, even the green tea who subconsciously yelled after being caught by the net seemed very disdainful. He explained to Uro the origin of this kind of wanderer in English.
People don't call them vagabonds, there is no specific name for these people.
Mo said, "This is a half-beast." He obviously thought of the name on the spur of the moment, and there was a bit of sarcasm in his words, "They, the tribe, don't want them, or walk out of the tribe. If they are cold and hungry, they will go to other places... ..."
He couldn't say the word, frowned and gave up, continuing to practice bow and arrow.
Uro probably understood what he meant. This flat-headed brother was a homeless man who was abandoned by his own tribe for some reason, or escaped after being punished for doing something wrong. It was probably stealing or even robbery. There is no crime in the tribe. In the case of public ownership, it is not called theft, but self-inflicted, which is legal.
However, this is not the case when people from other tribes come to take it, but they rarely encounter this situation.
"They will eat everything." Le added, "At first, maybe not. If you are hungry, you will eat everything. Otherwise, you will die."
In such a primitive world, if a person lives in it, he must have the ability of a beautiful neighbor. Obviously, the flat-headed man who fell to the ground has no such ability at all. He was able to survive a deep winter probably by relying on The houses and pottery they built, and the remaining sparks in the fire that did not go out.
Equivalent to getting something for nothing.
This also proves why he is unwilling to leave.
It is very difficult to be picky eaters in such an environment. Even though there are so many men and women in the tribe, and they gather and hunt a lot of food, the children still eat small bugs and the like, and they never dislike it. There is so much food, and anything you can eat is delicious.
For a wanderer alone, sometimes even small bugs may not be enough to eat, and at the same time he may not be full. It is very possible for him to take risks and attack babies or even children of other tribes.Maybe they can't eat people at the beginning, but when they spend a lot of energy and time to solve a person, they will gradually become like animals and use the same kind as part of their food.
At times in history, cannibalism was also common.
Silently calling them half-beasts is actually very appropriate.
"Where is that person?" Uro asked, "Does he eat too?"
No one answered.
"He doesn't eat." After a long time, Green Tea said helplessly, and he sighed softly, "He doesn't want it, dead. There are many, beasts."
Uro said in horror, "He eats alive? He sucks brains?"
Green Tea thought about it carefully, shook his head and said, "No."
This made Wu Luo feel relieved, it’s better not to eat people, it’s better not to eat people, if you don’t eat people, everyone is still a young man with a little temper and a normal spirit in a civilized society, if you have a bad temper, you can pass the second disease Menopause, Alzheimer's disease, etc. can all be explained, or it's just a simple personality mismatch.
If we cannibalize, we will completely break away from the concept of civilization.
One step further is a personality disorder called anti-social, and one step back is a type that cannot communicate at all.
I see you as a beauty and you see me as a pork, is this appropriate?Is this good for communication?
Obviously not.
Green Tea thought for a while, then asked Wu Luo, "Wu, you ask him why?"
Uro looked around and tried to understand the answer, but the hunting team pretended to be nonchalant. He couldn't help being a little funny. He pursed his lips and decided to try to persuade everyone, "I ask you, is the fire okay?"
Green Tea nodded honestly, Mo Mo seemed a bit resentful of iron.
"Is the meat delicious?"
This time not only Green Tea, but even Le started to nod, while Mo remained neutral, Bai Lian didn't end up participating, and Da Zhuang was crazily shooting trees in the distance.
"Where's the salt?"
Silent.
"You see, he alone can do what we can do together."
Of course, in the same way he only needs to take care of himself and a small child, and we have a tribe to take care of.
Uro took the bow and arrow of Green Tea, and tried to pull it away to play handsome, but the bow and arrow did not move at all, and he did not show any embarrassment at all. He gently swept the back of the bow like dust, and handed it back to Green Tea. He smiled gently and said, "Aren't you curious about the clothes on his body and why he can ride a wolf? If we can exchange his secret of raising wolves, you can ride wolves to farther places when hunting in the future. , isn't it faster than two legs?"
The men are crazy.
If this was a variety show, the red light in front of Uro would have been blown.
Lian Mo's eyes couldn't help but shine.
"Is it only him?" Mo was still struggling.
And Wu Luo Youyou said, "If you can create an efficient artificial ecosystem like a mulberry fish pond for me within this year, I can definitely consider looking for him next year."
Whenever Wu said such words that people couldn't understand at all, everyone knew that the matter was a foregone conclusion, and it was useless to say more.
It is relatively common for other people in the tribe to have man-eating homeless people near the tribe. Homeless people will appear every once in a while. These annoying creatures are like mosquitoes that cannot be driven away. Short, they will always appear after a period of comfort, they will not be in groups, just like snakes in the mud, walking alone, lurking and waiting for a bite.
But as long as you beat it to pieces, you'll be fine.
Unlike the unsuspecting crowd, Uro looked at Brother Pingtou, but vaguely felt the sound of the horn. This peaceful, friendly, civilized and lovely little tribe would be devastated by primitive violence at any time.He really shouldn't say that the leader's people's wisdom is not yet developed. He only knew what real people's wisdom is not developed when he saw Brother Pingtou today.
Damn, it's too scary!
Looking at those pieces of skull, Uro's scalp was numb.
If a man-eating vagabond can come here, it means that his tribe is not too far away. After all, in a situation as bad as the original, without bamboo rafts or boats, it is difficult to leave the tribe's territory too far alone.Whether the tribe he fled from or drove him out was cannibal or not, they had to prepare for the worst.
From the beautiful neighbor to the flat-headed brother, every outsider he met has been ringing the alarm bell crazily for him.
Cannibalism may be a common thing in this era, but it is not for Uro. He does not want to add human flesh to his recipes. Since he has no way to respect other people's eating habits, Uro decided not to even serve them first. Yes, in the future, when I see cannibals, I will fight one by one.
Good thing the wooden wall was pulled up.
If it was said that Uro wanted to meet his beautiful neighbors just because he wanted to know where the large amount of salt was developed, now he was eager to get information about the nearby tribes, large and small, from them.
The men practiced archery crazily like wild dogs having fun, and when it was almost dark, the bowstrings of five bows were broken as expected. Fortunately, the bows and arrows were not broken, and the quality was not so bad that it made Uro bald.It is quite normal for the bowstring to break, just rub some spares. Uro only asked them if they hurt their hands, but no one said anything. It is obvious that all the staff are rough and thick and safe.
A few of the wooden arrows he practiced were also broken, and he was addicted to the bow. In the later stage, he simply shot whatever he caught.
So Wuluo went back to the tribe worriedly with the heart of an old father.
He didn't notice the men dragging Pingtou's body behind him at all.
Goodbye Brother Pingtou, it's dinner time.
The corpses and animal skins of the dead were tied up on the pyre. The leader obviously got the notice in advance and lit up the bonfire again. The half-human, half-ape body was tied to a stake.
"Huh—" This is not the sound of inhalation, but when the leader calls everyone to look over, they often make an extremely eye-catching whistling sound. They will imitate the sounds of other wild animals, or make strange sounds themselves to cause attention.The leader stabbed the bloodless corpse with a stone spear, and said with a serious expression, "The baby-eaters are here to beat us!"
This name is less sincere than Momo's. If it weren't for the saying that there is no copyright these days, Uro would be able to hire a lawyer now.
Everyone exclaimed in unison.
Uro swallowed the meat and soup in his mouth, but in the end he swallowed it. After all, spitting it out might be life-threatening.
"He's dead! Silently use the bow—" The leader's speech was cadenced, and there was no major problem except that he was not very good at organizing words. "He is sick. Let's burn him!"
It didn't even take 30 seconds before and after.
Thank you everyone, her speech is over.
Quickly the chief jumped down from the pile, and with a wooden spear he danced the flames in the fire, and set fire to the pile.
The tongue of fire was rising slowly, maybe it was because of the animal skin, or it might be because of the fat of the human body, the fire burned up quickly, and the children watched such a restricted-rated scene without blinking, without any fear, but instead Serving with the scene, it looks more delicious.
Uro didn't know whether he should applaud. In short, he habitually raised his hands, which was different from women's penguins clapping their hands to express their expectations. His applause obviously exceeded everyone's logical range, so everyone looked at each other in blank dismay, and finally said without hesitation. Choose to believe in witches for no reason.
Then there was a burst of warm applause in the venue.
too frightening.
Uro clapped blankly I was horrible.
Not long after the burning of the corpse, the winter snow began to melt visibly.
Spring is coming soon.
But the salt in the tribe is getting scarcer and is about to run out. They consume a lot of salt in winter to store the meat, and the snowflakes are about to melt. The meat sealed in the ice and snow has to be salted again, otherwise it has to be eaten immediately. Lose.Therefore, when Wuluo checked Chen's moon phase work, the leader couldn't help coming over to him to discuss matters related to salt.
"Warm up." The leader was worried, but he still patted Chen's head lovingly. He didn't care what the two of them were talking about, but went straight to the point, "Wu, we don't have enough salt."
Wu Luo patiently looked at the paper in his hand. Chen drew very carefully and clearly, and drew the changes of the moon every night, except for some nights when it rained or it was windy and snowy. Therefore, the full moon on the 12th is drawn at NO.[-], and the last quarter moon is drawn at the place where the full moon should be. "I can't see it for a few days, right?"
"If you can't see it, there is no painting." Chen replied honestly.
Wu Luo nodded indifferently, and said casually, "Do you remember when you couldn't see it?"
"Ah?" Chen stayed on the spot, he shook his head, trying to recall, but finally shook his head and said, "I don't know."
"If you don't take it easy, how do you know which days you missed and didn't draw? All these days are crowded together, and you don't know how to make up." Wu Luo casually pointed out the numbers below, " These are used to distinguish a day from darkness, if there is no way to draw today, if you draw tomorrow’s moon today, where will today’s moon go?”
Chen suddenly realized, "But the moon, I can't see it."
The leader tried to intervene, "Wu! I want to tell you, Yan." Seeing that Wu Luo was talking to Chen all the time, she simply hugged the child and put it aside, and squeezed herself into Wu Luo's sight, with a serious face, "I It's important to say."
She doesn't quite understand, is this kind of thing about the moon more important than the tribe?The so-called transition from frugality to extravagance is easy, but from extravagance to frugality is difficult. Everyone has become accustomed to the taste of salt, and when they go back to eating boiled meat in clear water, it is hard to swallow, and it is somewhat unpleasant.And if you don't eat too much salt, everyone will get sick. This is a matter of life and death for the tribe.
"Amber!" Wu Luo looked at her with a sullen face. For the first time, he didn't call her leader, but called her name, "Bring Chen back, I want to finish talking to him first."
Meals need to be eaten at a bite, and words need to be spoken sentence by sentence.
"I want to talk about salt." The leader retorted aggressively, not to be outdone, and she didn't think this moon would be more important than the salt in the tribe.
Uro just looked at her indifferently, "One hundred pottery, ten bows, not given yet. We can't exchange salt."
It was only then that the leader remembered that they still owed debts. For those soft quilts, they were unable to open kilns to make pottery in the deep winter, and the pottery lost in the tribe in winter needed to be replenished.She couldn't help frowning, put Chen back, and went to the cave to think with the others.
Leaving aside whether the debt can be repaid, Uro doesn't plan to change the salt for the time being. He wants to know where the beauty's neighbor's salt comes from. If there is a source, then the leader and the others don't have to rely too much on the mall.
And if you want to find a beautiful neighbor, you must get the consent of the leader, otherwise Uro's personal opinion will not be of much use for the time being.
As for the observation of Chen's moon phase, it is purely because Wu Luo wants to hurry up and have a general concept of time. After losing the sense of time, many things are messy.The emergence of the calendar is not just a simple "solar calendar for farming, lunar calendar for tides", but also to make plans and confirm the time. Otherwise, when the days pass by, you can only wait until you know when it is warm or when it is cold. to do something again.
"If you can't see the moon, just leave it there and look at it next time." Wu Luo pointed to the picture on the paper, and said to Chen seriously, "You can compare..."
"Comparison?"
Wu Luo nodded, tore off a piece of paper again, and drew a rough reincarnation according to the phases of the moon in his memory. He looked at it, painted the new moon as a ring, and asked, "The last moon was yesterday's ?"
Chen blinked and said, "Yes."
There may be a deviation in the number of days, but he missed at least five days without painting.
Wu Luo squinted his eyes for a while, and said slowly, "Today is the 23rd of the first month. The comparison is that when you look at the moon in the future, you will find that every so many days, the moon will cycle once, and it will follow you. It's changed exactly the same."
"The accumulation of months is the season, and the four seasons are the age. Year after year, the life and death of all things change, and it becomes the calendar."
Chen didn't quite understand here, so he asked, "Calendar?"
"The moon's moon has nothing to do with farming. Once you figure out the moon, you can observe the sun. It's too early now. After it rains, we can consider digging the soil and planting something. During that time It’s the transition from spring to summer, so we won’t be able to freeze the green seedlings to death in the cold spring and make us lose our crops, and we won’t be sunburned to death without showing their heads, and with the abundant rain, we might not have to go to Guangtun in autumn.”
Uro dealt with him expressionlessly, and thoughtfully said, "Actually, it's okay to use the moon to temporarily set up a calendar. Everyone has a concept of time. Anyway, there won't be any major events in the short few years." Son."
If there is a barrage, Chen's mind must be full of question marks, and he doesn't quite understand what Wu Luo is talking about.
"I don't want to be like Tao Yuanming. Chen Xing sorted out the wasteland, took the moon lotus back and hoeed, and worked hard all day. In the end, the grass was full of bean sprouts, and it was still a ghost field."
It was discovered that the cannibals brought great psychological pressure to Uro. Beasts are different from humans. Beasts cannot learn from humans because of their bodies and brains, but humans are different. Humans can learn from each other.Just like the dead flat-headed brother, he lived in the house where they fired pottery, and he knew that the beds were for sleeping, and that the pottery they piled up was for use—some of the pottery was discarded due to burnout There are traces of use.
And the fire.
He has been lingering and unwilling to leave, after all, just to survive.
And there is no unrepeatable tool in the tribe now, the spear thrower can be seen at a glance. The craftsmanship of bows and arrows is indeed complicated, but they are far from being complicated now.
Even though the wooden walls are tall, sooner or later they will imitate climbing trees and getting in.
The population of the tribe is not large, assuming that everyone is brave and good at fighting, hunting will also cause various casualties, and the chances of giving birth to pregnant women are equal to one less if there is no one.They need to increase the size of the tribe, increase productivity, and to increase the size of the tribe, either wait for the children to grow up, which is the most stupid way, and it takes too long, or absorb other tribes.
These prerequisites are sufficient food, farming and animal husbandry are very necessary.
The clue of salt is in the beautiful neighbor, the possibility of animal husbandry is also in him, and even the clue of the traverser is there. God is urging him to find the beautiful neighbor.
Uro felt that he was very melancholy, and the beautiful neighbor was actually one of the enemies, a very difficult and powerful enemy.
The wooden walls of the tribe can resist foreign enemies, but like the beautiful neighbors, they take the initiative to attack, so how should they defend themselves.
Chen left the witch who was in the late stage of persecution paranoia, and walked out with two pieces of paper. The adults were shoveling the winter snow and looking for the meat hidden inside. It has become significantly warmer recently, and the snowflakes have stopped for a long time. Let it go like this Meat can easily get wet and go bad.The leader would rather let everyone eat enough than waste food, and the river water was obviously thinner. Many children and women brought fishing nets to the river to try how to catch fish.
The men were chasing and hunting outside with bows and arrows, but the results were very low, not only because of the bow and arrow itself, but also because of the practice of hand and arrow. It was okay to use it to hunt small and medium animals, but it was not so cost-effective for large animals.
But if it is used to hunt small and medium-sized wild animals, the spear can still meet the standard.
Men's enthusiasm for bows and arrows gradually diminished with the frustration of actual combat.
This is actually not a problem with bows and arrows, but a problem with their manufacturing level. In addition, arrows have a high damage rate, which can be called a "luxury" in weapons.
"Chen!" Brother Xiaoku and Chi Zheng hid in the tree house and looked around. They saw Chen climbing up another tree house from a distance, and quickly stuck their heads out of the window to call him.
Chen, who was climbing the rope, turned around in a daze, "Ah—?"
"Wait for me!" Brother Xiaoku waved his hand and swung directly along the rope, almost knocking Chen who had climbed up to the bottom of the tree house again.
As a result, Chi Shun swung over with the still dangling rope.
"Snapped--"
The three of them fell to the ground together. Fortunately, the snow underneath hadn't been shoveled off. Although the fall was solid, it wasn't enough for them to come into direct face-to-face contact with Mother Earth.Children are very skinny, Chen turned over like a monkey and jumped up, patted the snowflakes on his buttocks, and quickly pouted his buttocks to rummage through the two pieces of paper in the snow. Blowing Snowflakes, looked at Chi and Xiaoku a little angrily, and said unhappily, "You guys, what are you doing!"
Chi grinned, "I want to know why Wu called you."
"Oh." Chen is also very honest, answering every question, "Look at the sun and the moon."
Brother Xiaoku felt incredible, "What's so good about it? Watch it every day."
"You don't understand." Chen said this sentence almost without thinking about it, and his mind was still on the two pieces of paper he was flipping through in his hand. Rubbing in distress, I rubbed some confetti, and quickly stopped.
Although Chen's words were not heartfelt, they sounded a bit irritating.
Chi and Brother Xiaoku looked at each other, one was the little fish king in the water, and the other was the little overlord in Taozhong, how could Chen's arrogant evaluation be tolerated in their eyes, and they rushed forward to fight in a scuffle.
When the leader and Uro were alarmed, one of the two sheets of paper was soaked in snow and rotted as soon as they were picked up; while the other was torn to pieces by the three of them.
There are not many boys who disagree with each other when they are old, and usually they don't fight very violently, so the situation this time is obviously different, otherwise the adults will not interfere forcibly.The one who grabbed Chen was the woman who came back with the fish, and the ones who grabbed Chi and Brother Xiaoku were two men who came back from hunting, and the others were watching.
The faces of the three children were bruised and swollen, and none of them got off to a good end. They looked vicious and wanted to kick each other.
"What are you doing!"
The leader roared very imposingly. She was still discussing with several women about how to deal with the one hundred clay pots. The tribal pots had a very high rate of wear and tear after a winter, and the salt was consumed visibly with the naked eye. In spring, prey will increase, and they will have new weapons.
Each pile has to be carefully arranged.
These three little bastards were actually fighting at this time.
Although the primitive people didn't have the concept of venting anger, it didn't prevent the leader from having such emotions. She raised her eyebrows and wished she could pick up these three brats and shake them, so that they would know how many eyes Lord Ma has. .
And Uro just picked up the two pieces of paper on the ground, his face could not tell whether he was angry or happy, most of the time he would have a slight smile, unlike now, his brows and eyes were cold, as if condensed A season of winter hangs on the brows and the corners of the eyes, and when the eyelashes blink slightly, the overwhelming wind and snow will roll up.
After all, no one would be happy to meet an uneasy child after experiencing both internal and external troubles.
The three children had a good relationship with him, and they bowed their heads a little guilty, not daring to speak.
Fortunately no one cried.
Otherwise, Uro will perform a collapse in place now.
"Why did you fight?" Uro's voice sounded colder than snow, and everyone trembled unconsciously. They knew that the witch's strength was not very strong, and he didn't have much physical strength to act on weekdays, but he made a throw. Spears and bows.The children had all been caught practicing spear throwing, and they knew how lethal that thing was, so everyone was more or less in awe of the witch who could make such a terrifying weapon.
Brother Xiaoku bumped into Chi subconsciously, but Chen just lowered his head and didn't speak.
Chi said very honestly, "Chen looks down on us."
There are too many things that look down on each other in the tribe, and it happens often. For example, the stronger ones look down on the weaker ones, the quicker ones look down on the dull ones, and even the good ones look down on the poor ones. Everyone has their own advantages and we work hard. It is normal to favor one's own advantages.Generally, it will not develop into a situation like fighting. After all, at this time, everyone's mind is full of survival, and basically they will only train themselves harder.
"They asked about the sun and the moon." Chen retorted, "They obviously don't understand."
"So you guys started fighting?"
There were no waves in Uro's voice.
The three children bowed their heads obediently, "Yes."
The leader glanced at the three children, and then looked at Uro. Just now Uro's interrogation was obviously encroaching on her power, but he is a witch, so he could have said such things, so she just frowned in the end and didn't say much. What, but decided to order their punishment "today, three people, no dinner!"
"Wait." Uro said slowly, "I have a better way."
The leader tilted his head and looked at Uro suspiciously.
Uro didn't say what is a better way, but looked at the hunting team first, as if a little surprised that they came back so early, "Bows and arrows don't work?"
The men nodded and then shook their heads. They took out the incomplete arrows and said worryingly, "It breaks too fast, it's very difficult, accurate."
This disadvantage appeared when silently shooting the homeless man. He practiced for a while, but he wanted to shoot the head but ended up in the heart. It can be seen that he no longer knows where he missed the target. If the distance is longer, [-]% Fly directly to the ground.And the arrow couldn't go through the heart. The man was still alive when they passed by, so he had to make another shot.
Of course, the bow needs to be practiced, and it needs to be guided by a person, which is beyond what Uro can do.
According to the current situation, one of their arrows is broken and one less, and it takes a lot of effort to polish it. It can be said that they cannot make ends meet.
Either spend a lot of time improving it, or add some weapons to help hunting.
"In addition to this, let's play a sling." Uro nodded and said casually, "That thing is more convenient and much simpler."
It is not difficult to make a sling at all, and there are ready-made ropes in the cave, so Uro took one and made it on the spot.
The whole thing is a rope with a net in the middle, with knots at both ends. He asked everyone to walk behind him, picked up a stone and put it into the net, and pressed the knotted end with his thumb, and the other can be tied directly to the rope. fingers, because only one of them needs to be released.
Uro threw the sling for the fourth time and then let go of his fingers. The stone flew out at high speed and was directly nailed to the wooden wall. Everyone looked at the witch in dumbfounded, and then at the simple sling in his hand. Blinking subconsciously.
Sure enough, he missed the target.
In fact, what Wu Luo wanted to throw was the tree, not the wall, but he untied the sling calmly and said casually, "You should also learn this. If you run out of bows and arrows, you can replace them."
Slings and bows have their own advantages and disadvantages, and when they can't make better bows and arrows temporarily, slings are a very good long-range weapon.
Regardless of whether it is a human or a beast, as long as the inertia is sufficient, a hit to the head is a death.
And this thing doesn't need to be made like a bow and arrow, just a rope and a stone everywhere.
When hunting, you must use a variety of weapons flexibly to be successful. The current situation of bows and arrows is not optimistic. They cannot produce a large number of arrows to keep up with the men's practice. It is better to let them practice more with stones.
After all, the consumption of the spear thrower on the wooden spear is not low.
Wu Luo shook the rope lightly, his eyes suddenly shifted to the three children who were fighting, all the adults trembled subconsciously, the women even hugged Chen into their arms, and the men also blocked Chi and Xiao Ku Behind him, he looked at Wu nervously.The leader hurried up a few steps, grabbed Wu Luo, and said in a hoarse voice, "I think it's better to be hungry."
The three children frantically nodded in agreement behind the adults, and their bodies were almost covered in white sweat.
Especially Brother Xiaoku, who began to regret why he had such a strong desire to win.
"You think I'm going to use the three of them as targets?" Wu Luo didn't realize it at first, looking at their desperation and looking at the sling in his hand, he couldn't help but cry, "I won't be so cruel, right? If the three of them are the targets of the sling, it’s fine if they miss it, but if they hit it, it’s just three watermelon scoops, just a fight.”
"Isn't it?" the leader asked cautiously.
Uro shook his head. He tied the sling with a slipknot. This time he didn't just throw anyone at random. After all, it would be too obvious if he missed the shot. Instead, he put it directly on the leader's hand and pulled it lightly. The rope was tightened instantly.
"It's a slipknot."
The leader's eyes lit up, "This? It can be caught alive!"
"Yes, you can catch alive." Uro said slowly, "See if you can use it yourself, but it is more difficult on big beasts, it is easy to be pulled away, and the rope is easy to break when wrestling. Little Beast is very simple."
The consideration of the slipknot trap actually started when Uro had the idea of animal husbandry.
Compared with polishing the temperament of big beasts, it is of course more convenient to start with small beasts and cubs.
Not only the leader, but also the men immediately became excited. God knows how much effort it would take for the children to practice the beasts they wanted to catch alive before.
Wu Luo beckoned the three children to come over, and the three of them walked out timidly. Wu touched the skulls of the three of them kindly and simply, looked at the men, and said softly, "The three of them are little beasts today, you can practice How to set them up."
"Okay." Uro gently pushed the three children, "You can start running."
The three children scrambled to disperse, the men laughed, and even the women took the ropes and prepared to join the battle.
Adults know where these children's abilities are, and they also know whether playing like this will hurt them. Wuluo does not advocate corporal punishment education. Little fat.
"Whoever is trapped, draw a line on his face with a charcoal pencil." When Wu Luo returned to the cave, he reminded slowly.
When it was time to eat at night, Chi's face had the least amount of charcoal, followed by Chen, and brother Xiaoku had the most charcoal on his face.
Adults even draw marks on their faces to show how well they are doing it.
The three children were as wilted as frost-beaten eggplants. The leader held back a smile and distributed food to them, and couldn't help but reach out and stroke the heads of the three children.
They ran all afternoon today.
Uro, on the other hand, was drinking the soup on the ground. The leader looked at the children and wanted to laugh, so he leaned over and asked him, "What are you thinking about?"
"Salt." Wu Luo said lightly, "If we don't have to change it, what will we do with the salt in the future?"
This matter immediately made the leader's smile disappear, and she frowned worriedly. Eating meat and mud as usual could no longer meet their demand for salt, and the salt fruit was not only a guardian, but also had growth restrictions. She whispered, "Then have you thought about it?"
"He has." Uro took a sip of the soup and said slowly, "And there are a lot."
The chief fell silent.
Even if it is not clear enough, the few men who are practicing arrows are enough to explain the cause and effect clearly.
"Does... this kind of person eat people?" Uro asked subconsciously. A normal person would definitely ask a question when encountering such a thing. He felt that he had suddenly left the warm and safe tribe and came to danger alone. On the prairie, this half-human, half-beast Pingtouge brought him back the sense of crisis in the primitive society.
Especially after seeing those pieces of human skull clearly.
This matter is nothing to the usual Bai Lian and Mo, even the green tea who subconsciously yelled after being caught by the net seemed very disdainful. He explained to Uro the origin of this kind of wanderer in English.
People don't call them vagabonds, there is no specific name for these people.
Mo said, "This is a half-beast." He obviously thought of the name on the spur of the moment, and there was a bit of sarcasm in his words, "They, the tribe, don't want them, or walk out of the tribe. If they are cold and hungry, they will go to other places... ..."
He couldn't say the word, frowned and gave up, continuing to practice bow and arrow.
Uro probably understood what he meant. This flat-headed brother was a homeless man who was abandoned by his own tribe for some reason, or escaped after being punished for doing something wrong. It was probably stealing or even robbery. There is no crime in the tribe. In the case of public ownership, it is not called theft, but self-inflicted, which is legal.
However, this is not the case when people from other tribes come to take it, but they rarely encounter this situation.
"They will eat everything." Le added, "At first, maybe not. If you are hungry, you will eat everything. Otherwise, you will die."
In such a primitive world, if a person lives in it, he must have the ability of a beautiful neighbor. Obviously, the flat-headed man who fell to the ground has no such ability at all. He was able to survive a deep winter probably by relying on The houses and pottery they built, and the remaining sparks in the fire that did not go out.
Equivalent to getting something for nothing.
This also proves why he is unwilling to leave.
It is very difficult to be picky eaters in such an environment. Even though there are so many men and women in the tribe, and they gather and hunt a lot of food, the children still eat small bugs and the like, and they never dislike it. There is so much food, and anything you can eat is delicious.
For a wanderer alone, sometimes even small bugs may not be enough to eat, and at the same time he may not be full. It is very possible for him to take risks and attack babies or even children of other tribes.Maybe they can't eat people at the beginning, but when they spend a lot of energy and time to solve a person, they will gradually become like animals and use the same kind as part of their food.
At times in history, cannibalism was also common.
Silently calling them half-beasts is actually very appropriate.
"Where is that person?" Uro asked, "Does he eat too?"
No one answered.
"He doesn't eat." After a long time, Green Tea said helplessly, and he sighed softly, "He doesn't want it, dead. There are many, beasts."
Uro said in horror, "He eats alive? He sucks brains?"
Green Tea thought about it carefully, shook his head and said, "No."
This made Wu Luo feel relieved, it’s better not to eat people, it’s better not to eat people, if you don’t eat people, everyone is still a young man with a little temper and a normal spirit in a civilized society, if you have a bad temper, you can pass the second disease Menopause, Alzheimer's disease, etc. can all be explained, or it's just a simple personality mismatch.
If we cannibalize, we will completely break away from the concept of civilization.
One step further is a personality disorder called anti-social, and one step back is a type that cannot communicate at all.
I see you as a beauty and you see me as a pork, is this appropriate?Is this good for communication?
Obviously not.
Green Tea thought for a while, then asked Wu Luo, "Wu, you ask him why?"
Uro looked around and tried to understand the answer, but the hunting team pretended to be nonchalant. He couldn't help being a little funny. He pursed his lips and decided to try to persuade everyone, "I ask you, is the fire okay?"
Green Tea nodded honestly, Mo Mo seemed a bit resentful of iron.
"Is the meat delicious?"
This time not only Green Tea, but even Le started to nod, while Mo remained neutral, Bai Lian didn't end up participating, and Da Zhuang was crazily shooting trees in the distance.
"Where's the salt?"
Silent.
"You see, he alone can do what we can do together."
Of course, in the same way he only needs to take care of himself and a small child, and we have a tribe to take care of.
Uro took the bow and arrow of Green Tea, and tried to pull it away to play handsome, but the bow and arrow did not move at all, and he did not show any embarrassment at all. He gently swept the back of the bow like dust, and handed it back to Green Tea. He smiled gently and said, "Aren't you curious about the clothes on his body and why he can ride a wolf? If we can exchange his secret of raising wolves, you can ride wolves to farther places when hunting in the future. , isn't it faster than two legs?"
The men are crazy.
If this was a variety show, the red light in front of Uro would have been blown.
Lian Mo's eyes couldn't help but shine.
"Is it only him?" Mo was still struggling.
And Wu Luo Youyou said, "If you can create an efficient artificial ecosystem like a mulberry fish pond for me within this year, I can definitely consider looking for him next year."
Whenever Wu said such words that people couldn't understand at all, everyone knew that the matter was a foregone conclusion, and it was useless to say more.
It is relatively common for other people in the tribe to have man-eating homeless people near the tribe. Homeless people will appear every once in a while. These annoying creatures are like mosquitoes that cannot be driven away. Short, they will always appear after a period of comfort, they will not be in groups, just like snakes in the mud, walking alone, lurking and waiting for a bite.
But as long as you beat it to pieces, you'll be fine.
Unlike the unsuspecting crowd, Uro looked at Brother Pingtou, but vaguely felt the sound of the horn. This peaceful, friendly, civilized and lovely little tribe would be devastated by primitive violence at any time.He really shouldn't say that the leader's people's wisdom is not yet developed. He only knew what real people's wisdom is not developed when he saw Brother Pingtou today.
Damn, it's too scary!
Looking at those pieces of skull, Uro's scalp was numb.
If a man-eating vagabond can come here, it means that his tribe is not too far away. After all, in a situation as bad as the original, without bamboo rafts or boats, it is difficult to leave the tribe's territory too far alone.Whether the tribe he fled from or drove him out was cannibal or not, they had to prepare for the worst.
From the beautiful neighbor to the flat-headed brother, every outsider he met has been ringing the alarm bell crazily for him.
Cannibalism may be a common thing in this era, but it is not for Uro. He does not want to add human flesh to his recipes. Since he has no way to respect other people's eating habits, Uro decided not to even serve them first. Yes, in the future, when I see cannibals, I will fight one by one.
Good thing the wooden wall was pulled up.
If it was said that Uro wanted to meet his beautiful neighbors just because he wanted to know where the large amount of salt was developed, now he was eager to get information about the nearby tribes, large and small, from them.
The men practiced archery crazily like wild dogs having fun, and when it was almost dark, the bowstrings of five bows were broken as expected. Fortunately, the bows and arrows were not broken, and the quality was not so bad that it made Uro bald.It is quite normal for the bowstring to break, just rub some spares. Uro only asked them if they hurt their hands, but no one said anything. It is obvious that all the staff are rough and thick and safe.
A few of the wooden arrows he practiced were also broken, and he was addicted to the bow. In the later stage, he simply shot whatever he caught.
So Wuluo went back to the tribe worriedly with the heart of an old father.
He didn't notice the men dragging Pingtou's body behind him at all.
Goodbye Brother Pingtou, it's dinner time.
The corpses and animal skins of the dead were tied up on the pyre. The leader obviously got the notice in advance and lit up the bonfire again. The half-human, half-ape body was tied to a stake.
"Huh—" This is not the sound of inhalation, but when the leader calls everyone to look over, they often make an extremely eye-catching whistling sound. They will imitate the sounds of other wild animals, or make strange sounds themselves to cause attention.The leader stabbed the bloodless corpse with a stone spear, and said with a serious expression, "The baby-eaters are here to beat us!"
This name is less sincere than Momo's. If it weren't for the saying that there is no copyright these days, Uro would be able to hire a lawyer now.
Everyone exclaimed in unison.
Uro swallowed the meat and soup in his mouth, but in the end he swallowed it. After all, spitting it out might be life-threatening.
"He's dead! Silently use the bow—" The leader's speech was cadenced, and there was no major problem except that he was not very good at organizing words. "He is sick. Let's burn him!"
It didn't even take 30 seconds before and after.
Thank you everyone, her speech is over.
Quickly the chief jumped down from the pile, and with a wooden spear he danced the flames in the fire, and set fire to the pile.
The tongue of fire was rising slowly, maybe it was because of the animal skin, or it might be because of the fat of the human body, the fire burned up quickly, and the children watched such a restricted-rated scene without blinking, without any fear, but instead Serving with the scene, it looks more delicious.
Uro didn't know whether he should applaud. In short, he habitually raised his hands, which was different from women's penguins clapping their hands to express their expectations. His applause obviously exceeded everyone's logical range, so everyone looked at each other in blank dismay, and finally said without hesitation. Choose to believe in witches for no reason.
Then there was a burst of warm applause in the venue.
too frightening.
Uro clapped blankly I was horrible.
Not long after the burning of the corpse, the winter snow began to melt visibly.
Spring is coming soon.
But the salt in the tribe is getting scarcer and is about to run out. They consume a lot of salt in winter to store the meat, and the snowflakes are about to melt. The meat sealed in the ice and snow has to be salted again, otherwise it has to be eaten immediately. Lose.Therefore, when Wuluo checked Chen's moon phase work, the leader couldn't help coming over to him to discuss matters related to salt.
"Warm up." The leader was worried, but he still patted Chen's head lovingly. He didn't care what the two of them were talking about, but went straight to the point, "Wu, we don't have enough salt."
Wu Luo patiently looked at the paper in his hand. Chen drew very carefully and clearly, and drew the changes of the moon every night, except for some nights when it rained or it was windy and snowy. Therefore, the full moon on the 12th is drawn at NO.[-], and the last quarter moon is drawn at the place where the full moon should be. "I can't see it for a few days, right?"
"If you can't see it, there is no painting." Chen replied honestly.
Wu Luo nodded indifferently, and said casually, "Do you remember when you couldn't see it?"
"Ah?" Chen stayed on the spot, he shook his head, trying to recall, but finally shook his head and said, "I don't know."
"If you don't take it easy, how do you know which days you missed and didn't draw? All these days are crowded together, and you don't know how to make up." Wu Luo casually pointed out the numbers below, " These are used to distinguish a day from darkness, if there is no way to draw today, if you draw tomorrow’s moon today, where will today’s moon go?”
Chen suddenly realized, "But the moon, I can't see it."
The leader tried to intervene, "Wu! I want to tell you, Yan." Seeing that Wu Luo was talking to Chen all the time, she simply hugged the child and put it aside, and squeezed herself into Wu Luo's sight, with a serious face, "I It's important to say."
She doesn't quite understand, is this kind of thing about the moon more important than the tribe?The so-called transition from frugality to extravagance is easy, but from extravagance to frugality is difficult. Everyone has become accustomed to the taste of salt, and when they go back to eating boiled meat in clear water, it is hard to swallow, and it is somewhat unpleasant.And if you don't eat too much salt, everyone will get sick. This is a matter of life and death for the tribe.
"Amber!" Wu Luo looked at her with a sullen face. For the first time, he didn't call her leader, but called her name, "Bring Chen back, I want to finish talking to him first."
Meals need to be eaten at a bite, and words need to be spoken sentence by sentence.
"I want to talk about salt." The leader retorted aggressively, not to be outdone, and she didn't think this moon would be more important than the salt in the tribe.
Uro just looked at her indifferently, "One hundred pottery, ten bows, not given yet. We can't exchange salt."
It was only then that the leader remembered that they still owed debts. For those soft quilts, they were unable to open kilns to make pottery in the deep winter, and the pottery lost in the tribe in winter needed to be replenished.She couldn't help frowning, put Chen back, and went to the cave to think with the others.
Leaving aside whether the debt can be repaid, Uro doesn't plan to change the salt for the time being. He wants to know where the beauty's neighbor's salt comes from. If there is a source, then the leader and the others don't have to rely too much on the mall.
And if you want to find a beautiful neighbor, you must get the consent of the leader, otherwise Uro's personal opinion will not be of much use for the time being.
As for the observation of Chen's moon phase, it is purely because Wu Luo wants to hurry up and have a general concept of time. After losing the sense of time, many things are messy.The emergence of the calendar is not just a simple "solar calendar for farming, lunar calendar for tides", but also to make plans and confirm the time. Otherwise, when the days pass by, you can only wait until you know when it is warm or when it is cold. to do something again.
"If you can't see the moon, just leave it there and look at it next time." Wu Luo pointed to the picture on the paper, and said to Chen seriously, "You can compare..."
"Comparison?"
Wu Luo nodded, tore off a piece of paper again, and drew a rough reincarnation according to the phases of the moon in his memory. He looked at it, painted the new moon as a ring, and asked, "The last moon was yesterday's ?"
Chen blinked and said, "Yes."
There may be a deviation in the number of days, but he missed at least five days without painting.
Wu Luo squinted his eyes for a while, and said slowly, "Today is the 23rd of the first month. The comparison is that when you look at the moon in the future, you will find that every so many days, the moon will cycle once, and it will follow you. It's changed exactly the same."
"The accumulation of months is the season, and the four seasons are the age. Year after year, the life and death of all things change, and it becomes the calendar."
Chen didn't quite understand here, so he asked, "Calendar?"
"The moon's moon has nothing to do with farming. Once you figure out the moon, you can observe the sun. It's too early now. After it rains, we can consider digging the soil and planting something. During that time It’s the transition from spring to summer, so we won’t be able to freeze the green seedlings to death in the cold spring and make us lose our crops, and we won’t be sunburned to death without showing their heads, and with the abundant rain, we might not have to go to Guangtun in autumn.”
Uro dealt with him expressionlessly, and thoughtfully said, "Actually, it's okay to use the moon to temporarily set up a calendar. Everyone has a concept of time. Anyway, there won't be any major events in the short few years." Son."
If there is a barrage, Chen's mind must be full of question marks, and he doesn't quite understand what Wu Luo is talking about.
"I don't want to be like Tao Yuanming. Chen Xing sorted out the wasteland, took the moon lotus back and hoeed, and worked hard all day. In the end, the grass was full of bean sprouts, and it was still a ghost field."
It was discovered that the cannibals brought great psychological pressure to Uro. Beasts are different from humans. Beasts cannot learn from humans because of their bodies and brains, but humans are different. Humans can learn from each other.Just like the dead flat-headed brother, he lived in the house where they fired pottery, and he knew that the beds were for sleeping, and that the pottery they piled up was for use—some of the pottery was discarded due to burnout There are traces of use.
And the fire.
He has been lingering and unwilling to leave, after all, just to survive.
And there is no unrepeatable tool in the tribe now, the spear thrower can be seen at a glance. The craftsmanship of bows and arrows is indeed complicated, but they are far from being complicated now.
Even though the wooden walls are tall, sooner or later they will imitate climbing trees and getting in.
The population of the tribe is not large, assuming that everyone is brave and good at fighting, hunting will also cause various casualties, and the chances of giving birth to pregnant women are equal to one less if there is no one.They need to increase the size of the tribe, increase productivity, and to increase the size of the tribe, either wait for the children to grow up, which is the most stupid way, and it takes too long, or absorb other tribes.
These prerequisites are sufficient food, farming and animal husbandry are very necessary.
The clue of salt is in the beautiful neighbor, the possibility of animal husbandry is also in him, and even the clue of the traverser is there. God is urging him to find the beautiful neighbor.
Uro felt that he was very melancholy, and the beautiful neighbor was actually one of the enemies, a very difficult and powerful enemy.
The wooden walls of the tribe can resist foreign enemies, but like the beautiful neighbors, they take the initiative to attack, so how should they defend themselves.
Chen left the witch who was in the late stage of persecution paranoia, and walked out with two pieces of paper. The adults were shoveling the winter snow and looking for the meat hidden inside. It has become significantly warmer recently, and the snowflakes have stopped for a long time. Let it go like this Meat can easily get wet and go bad.The leader would rather let everyone eat enough than waste food, and the river water was obviously thinner. Many children and women brought fishing nets to the river to try how to catch fish.
The men were chasing and hunting outside with bows and arrows, but the results were very low, not only because of the bow and arrow itself, but also because of the practice of hand and arrow. It was okay to use it to hunt small and medium animals, but it was not so cost-effective for large animals.
But if it is used to hunt small and medium-sized wild animals, the spear can still meet the standard.
Men's enthusiasm for bows and arrows gradually diminished with the frustration of actual combat.
This is actually not a problem with bows and arrows, but a problem with their manufacturing level. In addition, arrows have a high damage rate, which can be called a "luxury" in weapons.
"Chen!" Brother Xiaoku and Chi Zheng hid in the tree house and looked around. They saw Chen climbing up another tree house from a distance, and quickly stuck their heads out of the window to call him.
Chen, who was climbing the rope, turned around in a daze, "Ah—?"
"Wait for me!" Brother Xiaoku waved his hand and swung directly along the rope, almost knocking Chen who had climbed up to the bottom of the tree house again.
As a result, Chi Shun swung over with the still dangling rope.
"Snapped--"
The three of them fell to the ground together. Fortunately, the snow underneath hadn't been shoveled off. Although the fall was solid, it wasn't enough for them to come into direct face-to-face contact with Mother Earth.Children are very skinny, Chen turned over like a monkey and jumped up, patted the snowflakes on his buttocks, and quickly pouted his buttocks to rummage through the two pieces of paper in the snow. Blowing Snowflakes, looked at Chi and Xiaoku a little angrily, and said unhappily, "You guys, what are you doing!"
Chi grinned, "I want to know why Wu called you."
"Oh." Chen is also very honest, answering every question, "Look at the sun and the moon."
Brother Xiaoku felt incredible, "What's so good about it? Watch it every day."
"You don't understand." Chen said this sentence almost without thinking about it, and his mind was still on the two pieces of paper he was flipping through in his hand. Rubbing in distress, I rubbed some confetti, and quickly stopped.
Although Chen's words were not heartfelt, they sounded a bit irritating.
Chi and Brother Xiaoku looked at each other, one was the little fish king in the water, and the other was the little overlord in Taozhong, how could Chen's arrogant evaluation be tolerated in their eyes, and they rushed forward to fight in a scuffle.
When the leader and Uro were alarmed, one of the two sheets of paper was soaked in snow and rotted as soon as they were picked up; while the other was torn to pieces by the three of them.
There are not many boys who disagree with each other when they are old, and usually they don't fight very violently, so the situation this time is obviously different, otherwise the adults will not interfere forcibly.The one who grabbed Chen was the woman who came back with the fish, and the ones who grabbed Chi and Brother Xiaoku were two men who came back from hunting, and the others were watching.
The faces of the three children were bruised and swollen, and none of them got off to a good end. They looked vicious and wanted to kick each other.
"What are you doing!"
The leader roared very imposingly. She was still discussing with several women about how to deal with the one hundred clay pots. The tribal pots had a very high rate of wear and tear after a winter, and the salt was consumed visibly with the naked eye. In spring, prey will increase, and they will have new weapons.
Each pile has to be carefully arranged.
These three little bastards were actually fighting at this time.
Although the primitive people didn't have the concept of venting anger, it didn't prevent the leader from having such emotions. She raised her eyebrows and wished she could pick up these three brats and shake them, so that they would know how many eyes Lord Ma has. .
And Uro just picked up the two pieces of paper on the ground, his face could not tell whether he was angry or happy, most of the time he would have a slight smile, unlike now, his brows and eyes were cold, as if condensed A season of winter hangs on the brows and the corners of the eyes, and when the eyelashes blink slightly, the overwhelming wind and snow will roll up.
After all, no one would be happy to meet an uneasy child after experiencing both internal and external troubles.
The three children had a good relationship with him, and they bowed their heads a little guilty, not daring to speak.
Fortunately no one cried.
Otherwise, Uro will perform a collapse in place now.
"Why did you fight?" Uro's voice sounded colder than snow, and everyone trembled unconsciously. They knew that the witch's strength was not very strong, and he didn't have much physical strength to act on weekdays, but he made a throw. Spears and bows.The children had all been caught practicing spear throwing, and they knew how lethal that thing was, so everyone was more or less in awe of the witch who could make such a terrifying weapon.
Brother Xiaoku bumped into Chi subconsciously, but Chen just lowered his head and didn't speak.
Chi said very honestly, "Chen looks down on us."
There are too many things that look down on each other in the tribe, and it happens often. For example, the stronger ones look down on the weaker ones, the quicker ones look down on the dull ones, and even the good ones look down on the poor ones. Everyone has their own advantages and we work hard. It is normal to favor one's own advantages.Generally, it will not develop into a situation like fighting. After all, at this time, everyone's mind is full of survival, and basically they will only train themselves harder.
"They asked about the sun and the moon." Chen retorted, "They obviously don't understand."
"So you guys started fighting?"
There were no waves in Uro's voice.
The three children bowed their heads obediently, "Yes."
The leader glanced at the three children, and then looked at Uro. Just now Uro's interrogation was obviously encroaching on her power, but he is a witch, so he could have said such things, so she just frowned in the end and didn't say much. What, but decided to order their punishment "today, three people, no dinner!"
"Wait." Uro said slowly, "I have a better way."
The leader tilted his head and looked at Uro suspiciously.
Uro didn't say what is a better way, but looked at the hunting team first, as if a little surprised that they came back so early, "Bows and arrows don't work?"
The men nodded and then shook their heads. They took out the incomplete arrows and said worryingly, "It breaks too fast, it's very difficult, accurate."
This disadvantage appeared when silently shooting the homeless man. He practiced for a while, but he wanted to shoot the head but ended up in the heart. It can be seen that he no longer knows where he missed the target. If the distance is longer, [-]% Fly directly to the ground.And the arrow couldn't go through the heart. The man was still alive when they passed by, so he had to make another shot.
Of course, the bow needs to be practiced, and it needs to be guided by a person, which is beyond what Uro can do.
According to the current situation, one of their arrows is broken and one less, and it takes a lot of effort to polish it. It can be said that they cannot make ends meet.
Either spend a lot of time improving it, or add some weapons to help hunting.
"In addition to this, let's play a sling." Uro nodded and said casually, "That thing is more convenient and much simpler."
It is not difficult to make a sling at all, and there are ready-made ropes in the cave, so Uro took one and made it on the spot.
The whole thing is a rope with a net in the middle, with knots at both ends. He asked everyone to walk behind him, picked up a stone and put it into the net, and pressed the knotted end with his thumb, and the other can be tied directly to the rope. fingers, because only one of them needs to be released.
Uro threw the sling for the fourth time and then let go of his fingers. The stone flew out at high speed and was directly nailed to the wooden wall. Everyone looked at the witch in dumbfounded, and then at the simple sling in his hand. Blinking subconsciously.
Sure enough, he missed the target.
In fact, what Wu Luo wanted to throw was the tree, not the wall, but he untied the sling calmly and said casually, "You should also learn this. If you run out of bows and arrows, you can replace them."
Slings and bows have their own advantages and disadvantages, and when they can't make better bows and arrows temporarily, slings are a very good long-range weapon.
Regardless of whether it is a human or a beast, as long as the inertia is sufficient, a hit to the head is a death.
And this thing doesn't need to be made like a bow and arrow, just a rope and a stone everywhere.
When hunting, you must use a variety of weapons flexibly to be successful. The current situation of bows and arrows is not optimistic. They cannot produce a large number of arrows to keep up with the men's practice. It is better to let them practice more with stones.
After all, the consumption of the spear thrower on the wooden spear is not low.
Wu Luo shook the rope lightly, his eyes suddenly shifted to the three children who were fighting, all the adults trembled subconsciously, the women even hugged Chen into their arms, and the men also blocked Chi and Xiao Ku Behind him, he looked at Wu nervously.The leader hurried up a few steps, grabbed Wu Luo, and said in a hoarse voice, "I think it's better to be hungry."
The three children frantically nodded in agreement behind the adults, and their bodies were almost covered in white sweat.
Especially Brother Xiaoku, who began to regret why he had such a strong desire to win.
"You think I'm going to use the three of them as targets?" Wu Luo didn't realize it at first, looking at their desperation and looking at the sling in his hand, he couldn't help but cry, "I won't be so cruel, right? If the three of them are the targets of the sling, it’s fine if they miss it, but if they hit it, it’s just three watermelon scoops, just a fight.”
"Isn't it?" the leader asked cautiously.
Uro shook his head. He tied the sling with a slipknot. This time he didn't just throw anyone at random. After all, it would be too obvious if he missed the shot. Instead, he put it directly on the leader's hand and pulled it lightly. The rope was tightened instantly.
"It's a slipknot."
The leader's eyes lit up, "This? It can be caught alive!"
"Yes, you can catch alive." Uro said slowly, "See if you can use it yourself, but it is more difficult on big beasts, it is easy to be pulled away, and the rope is easy to break when wrestling. Little Beast is very simple."
The consideration of the slipknot trap actually started when Uro had the idea of animal husbandry.
Compared with polishing the temperament of big beasts, it is of course more convenient to start with small beasts and cubs.
Not only the leader, but also the men immediately became excited. God knows how much effort it would take for the children to practice the beasts they wanted to catch alive before.
Wu Luo beckoned the three children to come over, and the three of them walked out timidly. Wu touched the skulls of the three of them kindly and simply, looked at the men, and said softly, "The three of them are little beasts today, you can practice How to set them up."
"Okay." Uro gently pushed the three children, "You can start running."
The three children scrambled to disperse, the men laughed, and even the women took the ropes and prepared to join the battle.
Adults know where these children's abilities are, and they also know whether playing like this will hurt them. Wuluo does not advocate corporal punishment education. Little fat.
"Whoever is trapped, draw a line on his face with a charcoal pencil." When Wu Luo returned to the cave, he reminded slowly.
When it was time to eat at night, Chi's face had the least amount of charcoal, followed by Chen, and brother Xiaoku had the most charcoal on his face.
Adults even draw marks on their faces to show how well they are doing it.
The three children were as wilted as frost-beaten eggplants. The leader held back a smile and distributed food to them, and couldn't help but reach out and stroke the heads of the three children.
They ran all afternoon today.
Uro, on the other hand, was drinking the soup on the ground. The leader looked at the children and wanted to laugh, so he leaned over and asked him, "What are you thinking about?"
"Salt." Wu Luo said lightly, "If we don't have to change it, what will we do with the salt in the future?"
This matter immediately made the leader's smile disappear, and she frowned worriedly. Eating meat and mud as usual could no longer meet their demand for salt, and the salt fruit was not only a guardian, but also had growth restrictions. She whispered, "Then have you thought about it?"
"He has." Uro took a sip of the soup and said slowly, "And there are a lot."
The chief fell silent.
