I'm doing shopping in the original
Chapter 77 (1)
The stalls of the Seven Bran Tribe are very large, and there are quite a lot of products.
When Wu Luo and Yan passed - Hu Po, a woman with no sense of loyalty, had already escaped halfway. She probably got endless courage from cotton, and tried to go to the sea to pan for gold again.Mo and Chi Zheng stood at the booth of the Qikang Tribe looking at the animal bones, but they belonged to the rather annoying type of customers, they only wanted to look but not buy, but the people of the Qikran Tribe had a good temper and didn't say anything.
The Qikuan Tribe is the tribe that raises elephants. Someone is taking care of the baby elephant. According to the law that everything is bigger in this world, this baby elephant may not be born for a long time. Could it be a commodity?
"Will anyone change that elephant?" Wu Luo rubbed his chin and turned to ask Yan.
Yan replied calmly, "Me. They bring some domesticated cubs to me every year, but most of them don't end well. Domestication is not easy, and it often happens that they suddenly return to the wild to attack their masters. , It’s thankless, but Qikang is a big tribe, and they have enough strength to support their ideas. Even if I don’t want this elephant, they will naturally have a way to deal with it.”
What to do?eat it...
"It's really not easy." Thinking of the rabbits in the tribe, Uro couldn't help feeling a lot of emotion, nodded subconsciously, "Such domestication will take several generations, right?"
"Some are docile by nature, a few generations is enough, and some are still the same for more than ten generations." Yan didn't seem to care much about this matter, but looked down at the things on the booth seriously. He hurriedly stood up to say hello, his expression was very respectful, but he was not cold and indifferent, and didn't mean to pay attention.
Most of the stalls of the Seven Bran Tribe are filled with bones, animal skulls that are too big to be used for stewing soup, and ribs and spines of some giant beasts, not too many shoulder blades, and several huge tortoise shells that are processed separately up.
I don't know how they opened the tortoise shell.
"What do you see?"
When visiting these stalls with Amber or by himself, Uro always felt that his heart was full of worries about the country, the people and the long-term future plans of the tribe. He wished to take out a small notebook and write the schedule for the whole afternoon to determine what they would buy. How to buy in order to maximize the benefits.
But with Yan, it seemed that they were really just here to go shopping.
Yan didn't speak, so Wu Luo had no choice but to follow his gaze, and found that it was an extremely long snake bone, but what was strange was that the snake's bone spurs still tightly wrapped the main spine, which seemed to be perfectly round. Putting on the skin can revert to the appearance of a snake.
Uro had seen snake bones with spurs, they were all unfolded one by one, not gathered and surrounded like this.
The snake's skull was very complete, and Wuluo's white-haired sweat was almost visible on a hot day. He decided to stay away from Yan, who was a bit of a ghost, and walked towards Mo and Chi, who he was more familiar with. The two of them were watching very seriously. The same bone, a very thin piece of bone, is very sharp, like a natural spearhead that doesn't need to be beaten.
"What kind of bone is this?" Uron wondered.
"It's the teeth of a beast." Mo explained, with a hint of reluctance, "It's a big beast."
Uro couldn't help but said, "I can't buy it."
Mo and Chi squatted sadly, nodding their heads, enduring silently.
This suddenly caused a strong sense of guilt in Wuluo's heart, as if he took two obedient children out on New Year's Day, because there was no extra money, the children stood obediently outside the window and looked longingly at the inside. Gift.However, Wu Luo had lived with the tribesmen for a long time, and his sense of guilt came and went as quickly as the wind, so he only sympathized with them for three seconds, and then calmly asked the Seven Bran Tribe if there were any seeds of yellow rice noodles.
The Seven Bran Tribe smiled sincerely and sincerely, but they didn't understand.
Uro covered the upper half of his face with a sigh.
All right—translation, please get on the line.
After having Yan, the conversation became much easier. The Qikuan tribe didn't have anything to exchange urgently. They came to this market mainly to see if other tribes had come up with any weird things. , silk cloth is obviously one of them.
This kind of new thing often requires a new price. The people who guarded the booth of the Qikuan tribe didn't dare to make decisions, so they went to invite the big witch who was sitting together.
Yan waited with Wu Luo, and suddenly asked, "The seeds I gave you are all dead?"
"That's not true. They're all growing in the experimental field, but it's not uncommon for one or two to die." Wu Luo said casually, clapping his hands, "There are also a few small green seedlings that were eaten by rabbits. I'll take precautions against them." It’s a bit of a pity that it didn’t survive, even though it finally germinated, but it still didn’t survive.”
Yan smiled, and calmly said, "It's not the same with people."
"what?"
"You may not be able to grow up successfully if you grow up. Even if you grow up, you must continue to absorb nutrients." Yan looked at the passionate Qikang tribe in front of him, and his tone was unhurried, with a natural rhythm like poetry. He almost indifferently Narrated, "We looked at the forests from a distance, bustling with activity, but the fertile soil under our feet was filled with the bones of the same kind. Those who lost their lives will never be discovered and recorded by anyone. Why should it be a pity? They Couldn't have survived."
Wu Luo felt that Yan seemed to be somewhat resistant, but he didn't know which sentence angered him. Seeing that he was not very angry, he didn't know how to answer for a while. Just expose this matter.
I don't know if it's because of Yan's face, or because everyone's business is so simple. The Qikang tribe didn't cheat Wuluo. After they estimated the price of the silk cloth, they opened a full basket, which was wrapped in linen. seed.The Seven Knock tribe hesitated for a while, and the big witch gestured with the clam shell and asked them how to put it back.
Wu Luo asked Chi Pao to go back and bring a big pottery.
Chi Pi Dian Pi Dian ran back, because he was too involved in the animal bones, he was quite unclear about Wu Luosuo's request for pottery, Hu Po thought they were going to exchange things, so he handed a beautiful black pottery to Chi.
Now the Qikang tribe simply gave Wuluo the two baskets of seeds and the linen inside. In addition to the silk cloth, they also wanted black pottery.
The seeds in one basket, excluding those used for sowing experiments, are enough to pound rice and cook for Wuluo to eat for a week.
However, the seeds in the two baskets were of the same kind. Fortunately, Yan helped to translate, and finally replaced several other seeds.
The Qikang tribe laughed because they felt they had taken advantage of it. If these seeds were planted, they would be harvested once or twice a year, and one seed could get dozens or even nearly a hundred in return.Although it took a long time at the beginning, as long as there is harvest, there is profit. These days, there is no taxation and tenant rent like in later generations. The mountains and plains are all their land, and the only thing to drive away is the birds and beasts.
After the seeds are sown, the autumn harvest is basically given away for nothing.
They have not considered any intellectual property rights, and have not yet developed the concept of time for cultivating and domesticating seeds, so they feel that they have taken advantage of such easy-to-harvest things and exchanged them for exquisite silk cloth and black pottery.
As for Wu Luo, he is even happier. Of course there are places selling rice in the supermarket, but that has already been processed. Washing and washing the rice can basically be boiled in the pot. Throwing this kind of rice in the field is equivalent to feeding mouse.Originally, he planned to find the future or slowly domesticate it in that bag of seeds, but now that there are ready-made grain seeds in front of him, and they are obviously mature, he is naturally smiling.
Whether it is an animal or a plant, domestication is not an easy process.
Ulo slipped up Moti who was still salivating over the bones, and let him and the well-behaved Chi Yi carry back a basket, while he started to walk back with his hands empty and relaxed.
After walking a few steps, Wu Luo suddenly realized that something was wrong. He subconsciously looked around, and there was no sign of Yan, so he turned around and saw that the other party was still standing there, as if he was considering whether to buy the snake bone. Can see back.
Wu Luo quickly came back to his senses, he just felt that Yan should have stood by his side.
The idea was too light and ridiculous.
It's like a ridiculous paradox. When there are so many people to choose from in the world, they can keep loneliness, but not when there are only two people left.
Yan was indeed friendly to him, but he also expressed subtle hostility in the Lianshan tribe before.
They are neither enemies nor companions.
Wu Luo quickly turned his head away and continued to look at their stalls. Su Cuu's business ability is very strong. In a short time, he exchanged salt and black pottery for many bones and animal skins, and even a few bones. The farm tools made are very primitive, very similar to Leisi in history, but the shape has changed somewhat, and they are polished with bones. I don’t know what method is used, and the wood and bones are seamlessly connected.
Possibly the gaps were filled with gum.
Seeing that Uro was frowning, Amber asked cautiously, "What's wrong?"
"Why do you want to buy these all of a sudden?" Uro asked her back. It's not impossible. The farm tools they made are still too rough. After all, they don't have much experience. It's okay to buy some farm tools and come back to study, but it's too little and not enough to change them like this. It is a bit extravagant to simply use it as a teaching material.
But this is not a random purchase.
"Don't you want to plow the land?" Amber tilted her head and said, "Other tribes have planted very well. They exchanged pottery with us and told us to burn it to kill insects and weeds. When it grows out, we can scatter it the next year. Ash."
This is very basic knowledge. After listening to it twice, Uro suddenly felt weird and asked, "Why did they tell you?"
"Because we bought this." Amber said naturally.
Uro was stunned for a moment, but he didn't realize it all at once. After watching Hu Po and Su Cuo gesturing to him, he suddenly realized that feelings are to buy things and give information. other tribes.Even if other people make farm tools, they are not as good as them, or when they encounter troubles in farming, they will be the first to think of them. This is a very simple principle of advertising and publicity.
"Thank you." Uro looked at Hu Po's anxious eyes and smiled, "It's good."
This made Amber breathe a sigh of relief. She is not a person with low self-esteem, but sometimes she always feels that she doesn't understand anything in front of Uro, and she is afraid that what she does is useless.
With the farm tools and seeds, Wuluo was a little worried about animal husbandry. He originally wanted to buy some small animals, but Yan's words made him a little discouraged, and some of them would return to wildness in a few generations.
The aggressiveness of the two rabbits when they gave birth is still vivid, and Uro is a little unsure whether to change it.
Smaller animals such as chickens and ducks are sold at the stalls of no tribes, but there are some such as cattle.
Pull it back, where can I put it.
Everyone's house is still up.
Uro couldn't make up his mind, and he was really excited when he first saw the market, but after shopping, it was actually a little pitifully small, so he wasn't that interested.There are quite a few tribes without salt, and Amber soon ran out to change things again. She is a little addicted to trading now, and Uro asked Su Cuo to go out for a walk. After all, it is inhumane to let him watch the stall all the time.
While thinking about what to change next, Uro turned out the paper and began to paint and draw, but he didn't notice that many people were looking at him.
The bazaar suppresses the wildness of people to a certain extent. Everyone is good at using the method of exchange to get what they want. After leaving the bazaar, small-scale friction, disputes and suppression are inevitable, and sometimes even develop into annexation.Ulo's glasses and clothes are unprecedented, no beautiful gems are so clear, no soft sackcloth is so delicate.
After holding the fair for so many years, everyone knew the prices of things more or less, and they felt that they couldn't afford to exchange the corresponding goods, so no one asked Ulo abruptly whether to change the clothes and accessories on his body.
But even if he asked, Uro couldn't understand.
Of course, Uro is not idle. He is recording and drawing people from other tribes, so that those who have not come can understand.
The people of the Sea Fish Tribe have water glands. When Wu Luo thought of the sea snakes that were still alive just now, he suddenly realized that those wet waters were probably the result of them using their bodies as a converter between fresh water and salt water to feed these people who should not be alive. The living environment of the fish that come ashore, right?
Since the thought was a bit disgusting, Uro subconsciously shook his goosebumps and decided to put it aside.
Then there is the bee tribe. Their characteristic is that everyone is dressed like a beautiful queen bee. I don’t know what kind of paint is painted on the body. You can see the powder, but the colors blend beautifully; With the smell of herbs, even the decorations are woven with plants; the people of the Qikang tribe will put empty tassels in their hair, some plant shells are worn as belts or forehead chains, and the arms are rubbed with plant ash...
Later, when Amber came back bouncing, she suddenly had the vivacious temperament of a little girl, or in other words, there is no other better way to celebrate these days than moving her limbs.
Amber held a piece of vanilla, not the kind commonly used in spices, nor the type of ice cream flavor, but a really fragrant grass.
Not the fragrance in the sense of appetite, but the fragrance in the sense of smell.
Amber happily stuffed the grass into Uro's hair, but since Uro just washed and dried it this morning, the grass floated down like a slide.
"Huh?" Amber stared blankly at Uro's hair, as if seeing him for the first time, opened her hand hesitantly, and ran her five fingers back and forth in Uro's hair, feeling the cold and soft hair like soft It slid over the skin like a cloud, and she fished it a few more times, but it still didn't catch on.
Well, my hair was washed for nothing.
Wu Luo picked up the grass and sniffed it, then asked strangely, "Where did it come from?"
"Someone gave it to me." Amber was still in surprise, replying subconsciously, "I said I didn't have anything to change, so he just gave it to me."
"I'm really surprised by how popular you are..." Uro murmured, "Why didn't anyone give me anything, and no one invited me to dinner, so it turns out that amber is popular these days?"
When the sun was about to set, almost all the things they brought at their stalls were sold out. When Wu Luo was about to pack up and go back, Yan suddenly came to the stall.
"There will be a spring celebration at night." Yan said softly, "You may not be used to it. Do you want to live in my house? You still have to participate."
Uro was stunned, and immediately understood the cryptic hint. After he was stunned for a moment, he lowered his head and told Amber about it, asking her opinion. Amber seemed very happy and felt that there was no big problem.
No wonder Yan said that the population is not limited to the Lianshan tribe. It turns out that this market is also a large-scale blind date party.
"I'll go back to live." Uro replied pretending to be calm.
Not only is it likely to happen tonight, but their goods have been exhausted and they must go back to replenish them.
Yan nodded, and didn't bother him anymore, but took out a very thin bamboo tube from his sackcloth, put it near his mouth, and blew it. He couldn't tell what kind of sound it was, it was as long as a clear whistle, and soon came not far away The sound of Lai Xun to cater to, and the dull bang of the leather drum.
The sun seemed to be falling in an instant, and the starry sky was covered with half of its clothes. At the moment when the music sounded, countless bonfires were lit, which suddenly illuminated the other half of the night, and the cheering voices of men and women threw away the day in an instant The civilization at the time of exchange returns to the most primitive joy,
Uro felt as if someone was pulling him by the back of the collar and pulling him into a new era, making him dizzy and groggy.
Both Hu Po and Jie decided to stay, and the two young men did not intend to leave. In the end, Su Cu and Mo went back with Wu Luo.
Before leaving, Amber handed the bag of leaves to Wuluo, asking him to take it back for everyone to taste.
It's just such a little thing, what's there to taste, Wu Luo can't laugh or cry, but he still agrees.
The people from the Sea Fish Tribe watched the men leave in surprise, but they didn't care about it, instead they excitedly grabbed Jie and Hu Po's hands and involved them in the party.
Before Wuluo went up the hillside, he could still see the crowd and the flames, dimly reflecting Yan who was sitting on the tree and playing the tune.
The flame is obviously so warm, but Yan looks colder than the moonlight.
Su Cu and Mo's lack of enthusiasm for this matter surprised Uro, but he didn't gossip to ask why they didn't want to stay. If these two really suddenly awakened and realized that the party would be more lively At this point, leave him in the deep mountains and old forests or take him back together, then Wuluo really has no choice.
There are too many things exchanged, and I have to take them all back to the tribe in one go. Even Uro has to use his strength to help. Fortunately, his health is slowly improving now, and he is not as weak as before. Chicken, still come in handy.
The torches are made from local materials and know the way by default; if you used to have to worry about wild animals going out in the middle of the night, recently it is a market, and the nearby wild animals have already been driven away. The power of a battle.
Well, excluding Wu Luo, Su Cu and Mo are both excellent fighters.
When the moon was in the middle of the sky, they returned to the tribe. They knocked on the door for a long time and no one answered, so Su Cuo had to scream in the middle of the night, which attracted other people to open the door.
"Oh, come quickly."
It was A Cai who came out to greet her, and she called out, "They brought back a lot of things."
The big guys rushed out of the cave together. They seemed to have just eaten, and the oil on their mouths was still dry, "Wu? Mo? Sucu... Where are the leaders?"
Uro asked everyone to move things in, and went to check his botanical garden. It was the same as during the day, but a few weeds had grown. He used the new tools to remove the weeds to avoid absorbing the seeds. nutrition.
It’s so late that we can’t pound the rice, otherwise we can let everyone taste the taste of yellow rice noodles. Wu Luo took out the leaf bag and let Yan cook it for everyone. Such a little thing can only be cooked in soup, which can be regarded as a taste.
After today's experience in the market, of course it is not possible to only go to so few people, Wuluo ordered a few more for them to go with him tomorrow, Xisi is naturally on the list - if she can go to the Gema tribe's technology There are even fewer sneak peeks, no matter how bad it is, everyone can learn by communicating with body language.
The brand-new black pottery is prepared, and there are about a dozen jars of salt, and the silk cloth has not been finished, so it is not enough, so I give it up for the time being.
They just trade pottery for things.
Pottery is still a hard currency these days.
After Wu Luo simply gave instructions for tomorrow's work, he yawned and went back to his small room. He threw all the eagerly awaited eyes and questions to the eloquent Su Cu and the dumb Mo.
The little rabbits had all been moved out, and Wu Luo stretched his waist, knowing that An An had probably taken him out to take care of him, and the rainy season was over, so there was no need for the rabbit family to stay in his house anymore.
The smell of rabbit is not strong, but there is still some, and Uro likes to lock the door, so the air will become dull after a long time.
He first lit the fire in the stove, lit the medicinal herbs, burned them in every corner of the room, and finally threw them into the clay pots in the storage room on the bottom floor.
This mosquito-repelling herb smelled like wormwood, not too strong. Wu Luo was already a little drowsy, but as soon as he was inhaled by the aroma, he simply fell asleep lying on the kang bed that hadn't warmed up yet. .Sleeping at one breath until midnight, Wuluo's back was stabbed by the heat as if he was cupping, and then he woke up in a daze, turned on the fire in the stove, took off his clothes and shoes, and then dragged himself into the Under the quilt, she fell into a deep sleep again facing the full moonlight.
Early the next morning, it was Xisi who frantically knocked on the door.
Uro yawned and went into the box to take a cold shower in the morning. Before he woke up completely, he bit his toothbrush and squinted his eyes in a daze under the shower——Originally, this matter was all on his own, and he was already familiar with it. Take the water pipe to connect the water from the sink, fix it yourself, and it becomes a very simple shower, but you have to do it all over again every time. Later, he found out that there are showers in the sports field, so he just went to the sports meeting every time There is only bathing and no exercise in the hall.
The cold water splashed on him, and the white foam from the toothbrush was washed into the sewer by the water flow. If it was real, it would be the sewer, but who knows where this ghostly place went, maybe it turned into cosmic dust.
Uro is thinking about life.
Nonsense, in fact, he didn't think about anything. If there were any words passing by in his head, it would probably be "this toothpaste is so fucking cold" or "what should I have for breakfast" and other non-nutritious things.
When he came out of the bathroom to wipe his hair, Uro did think of something, or something related to a certain person.
He was wondering if Yan would participate in that celebration.
I vaguely feel that the answer is no, but I'm not sure.
This is not like going to a bar to find someone you want to love after working to the extreme in modern society.Their goal is not relaxation and pleasure, but for reproduction. Just as women are unwilling to be purely reproductive tools, Uro, as a man, also does not want to fall into this predicament himself.
Yan doesn't look like a modern person in every respect, but...he can't say for sure.
He didn't look like the kind of guy who would take himself prisoner.
Uro wiped his hair and baked a piece of buttered bread with his mouth in his mouth. He sat in a nearby beauty shop and picked out a hair dryer to dry his hair. He belatedly remembered whether it was time to get some soap for the people in the tribe. .
Women in the tribe like decoration very much, and so do men, but most of the men decorate themselves with the teeth of wild animals to show their heroism, and rarely wear flowers and grass.The main thing women wear flowers on is their matted and knotted hair, which will almost never fall out. Sometimes Wu Luo suspects that even if he puts a shell on it, it probably won't fall off.
In order to prevent my hair from being bald by the curious Amber, it is reasonable to get some soap, and besides, I take a bath with only water and no soap on weekdays, no matter how clean I wash it, it will not be very clean.
Before leaving the mall, Uro hesitated for a moment, and bought some things anyway.
By the time he opened the door for Xisi, he had changed from an unkempt middle-aged overtime worker to a well-dressed and handsome young man.
"Wu, let's go." Xisi was very excited.
"Let's go."
Uro nodded and closed his door. There were enough people going this time, so he didn't need to carry anything, just hurrying on the road.
And when Uro reappeared at the booth and brought more things, the Sea Fish Tribe showed a rare look of bewilderment, obviously not understanding what happened.But if he didn't understand, it didn't mean that the Seven Knock Tribe didn't understand, and this big tribe understood it very quickly. About the next night, they realized that the Sun Moon Tribe was very close to here.
At that time, the Lianshan tribe had just arrived, and Wuluo was teasing Su Cu whether he should go to meet the old tribe, completely unaware that there was a dispute over interests not far away.
Of course, the market didn’t look like this at the beginning. At the beginning, all the tribes were vying for positions. They were used to exchanging and fighting together. At the first transaction, there was no such a lively blind date meeting, and many corpses fell on the grass. , the blood stained a long stream, and finally merged into the river.
In the end, Yan and the three tribes of Qikuan, Heiqu, and Huaguang came forward to quell the fight.
In that year's deal, everyone got something or a skill they longed for from Yan.
The second year, the third year...
As time passed, they finally formulated the rules and limited the time to establish an invisible system.
Originally near Yan, recently there was a Lianshan tribe that was less than three or four days away. Now a new tribe has emerged, with beautiful ritual vessels and silk cloth, and living nearby. Nanakan was very dissatisfied.
The shamans of Heiqu and Huaguang are more conservative, plus they had very bad memories of Yan, and later received kindness. The market has gained a lot of benefits over the years, so they don't pay much attention to these interests, but are just accepted by them. Qikang stirred up to put pressure on Yan, so he was almost silent all the way.
Yan Jingjing finished listening to the impassioned speech of the great witch of the Qikuan tribe, the content of which was nothing more than how much the three tribes had contributed to the market, how many rules they had formulated, and the credits of sacrifices, etc., and said calmly, " What do you want?"
"Next year, we will go to Qikuan tribe to exchange." The big witch said decisively.
Yan Xingzhi said shortly, "It's up to you, if you can order them around, just say it yourself."
"You agreed?" Da Wu was very excited, "We will send a boat to pick you up then?"
"I won't go." Yan said coldly, turned his eyes to the faces of the two big witches of Heiqu tribe and Huaguang tribe, and said slowly, "You think so too?"
The Heiqu tribe was the first to shake their heads. Their tribe is quite peculiar. Half of the tribe can communicate with birds, not the flexible language communication, but they can understand whether the birds are warning or looking for food. Therefore, the tribe has domesticated many birds. Birds live together.They wear sackcloth when they are hot, and when they are cold, they glue and sew the shed feathers of the birds to make feather clothes. They eat and live with the birds, and the birds also watch over them.
The Heiqu tribe believes in the bird god, and they have lived like birds for a long time. They eat whatever they have, and they don't hoard food excessively.In order to make it easier to communicate with the birds, they have developed many musical instruments. Yan has pointed out many Heiqu tribes, and the two sides have no enmity. They are also looking forward to hearing new songs this year and next year, so the first one jumps backwards. .
The Huaguang tribe was a little hesitant. Their tribe was very good at building ships, and many tribes who came here by boat had their credit.
Among the three tribes, Qikuan is the most powerful, Huaguang can help build the ship, while Heiqu is on guard around.
Therefore, in the past few years, everyone has been headed by the three of them, but this is based on Yan's authority. They do not trust each other. After leaving the market, the closer tribes often have conflicts. It is no longer the relatives and friends who kill each other. It was the first time.
Intermarriage is intermarriage, and joint marriage is joint marriage. After all, the place is only so big, and everyone expands, and fighting is inevitable.
If it weren't for Yan's guarantee here, no tribe would come.
Yan didn't wait for Huaguang Tribe's reply, but just sneered and signaled the three of them to go out. Yan Xiaowang, who was lying on the cabinet to catch flying insects, raised his buttocks like a caterpillar, looked at his father suspiciously and asked, "Are you angry?" ?"
"No." Yan stood by the window and looked out. Uro was laughing in his tribe.
Sometimes Yan finds it weird, that man calmly stands in the world, trapped in this world together, but looking at his appearance and posture, it seems that the surrounding area is just a kind of projection, which can be broken in an instant, and you can still feel him. The breath of modern civilization on your body seems to drag you into the world made of steel and iron as soon as you approach.
You will unconsciously become anxious, watching the traffic, thinking about work, dinner, loans and the future, all the things that normal people should worry about.
But now that he's integrated into that group, it seems as if he has completely become a part of it.
Yan silently stared at the moonlight that was about to appear.
Yan Xiaowang climbed down from the cabinet and asked, "Dad, what's wrong with you?"
"Nothing." Yan replied, "I'm just watching."
"Look at what?"
"just looking."
It wasn't until the third night that Uro saw Yan again. He was sensitively aware of the changes in the attitudes of the nearby tribes towards them. .Those of the Haiyu tribe are fine, for example, the people of the Qikuan tribe are not very happy when they see them, but if they are not happy, they can't do anything.
Dispute in Yan's place, unless it has eight legs or nine heads.
Otherwise, it will definitely not survive.
In fact, Uro didn't think about this at first. He thought it was a mistake in the sold items, or that Amber and the others had a dispute with others.But there is nothing, if there is a problem with the product, they should return it, if there is a problem with Amber, they should go to Yan to deal with it.
Only then did he think of the geographical location.
Everyone is innocent, but pregnant is guilty. Their tribe is not big enough, but they occupy such a good place. No wonder other tribes are not happy.
In fact, Yan Xuan's position is very good. If it wasn't for the small tribe that he let go for a moment, he suddenly picked up Wuluo, there would be no such conflict today.
But then again, this kind of thing is a coincidence, and he has the ability to let the market be placed in front of his house.
Everyone relied on Yan Cai to conduct transactions. This great god lives wherever he likes, and ordinary people can control where he likes.
"I didn't cause you any trouble."
Wu Luo asked, he stood idly against the tree, being too timid was also a kind of escape, while Yan sat on the tree and blew on the thin bamboo pipe.
"No." Yan quickly understood what Wu Luo was asking. There were not many things here, and there were even fewer things that needed to be specifically mentioned. His lips moved, then stopped, and he played the melodious again Here comes the tune.
A chubby little bird was standing on his shoulder, shaking its head majesticly, with a long red feather curled up, looking energetic.
"What bird is that? A sparrow?"
Yan Dan said, "It's a falcon, a small bird of prey."
He held the little chubby bird on his shoulder with his hand. The chubby bird was only about a dozen centimeters long. Its feathers were dense and fluffy. Its eyes were indeed very agile, but it was hard to tell that it was a falcon.
"Is it a matter of distance or..." Uro gestured, "or is it just that small?"
"It's so small." Yan replied, "It only grows so big, but its temperament is very cruel."
Wu Luo said quietly, "I really can't see it."
Yan chuckled lightly, he held up the little fat falcon and shook it lightly, then he spread his wings and flew into the dark night that was about to sink.
"Is that also from the Qikang Tribe?" Wu Luo had nothing to say, and wanted to chat with Yan Duo.
"No, they belong to the Heiqu tribe." Yan was very patient, and answered him in every detail, "The Heiqu tribe lives with birds, and their bones are hollow like birds, so their bodies are light and they can climb Go to a tall tree, but you can’t fly. When a person from the Heiqu tribe dies, the rib closest to his heart will be removed and made into a musical instrument.”
Uro subconsciously said, "You're bragging about this, aren't you?"
"This is bamboo." Yan laughed again, he bowed to look at Wu Luo, his eyes shone slightly, "Do you want to come up?"
"Can I go up?" Uro sneered, "My physique seems to be..."
Before the words fell, Uro felt that something was grabbing his waist. He heard the wind whizzing past his ears, and there seemed to be something under his buttocks. He looked around in shock, only to realize that he had already climbed a tree. He was stunned and said, "You know how to do light work?"
"You're not heavy." Yan put it lightly and perfunctorily, "I dragged the leopard up the tree, and that one was heavy."
"Leopard... a leopard?"
Yan thought for a while, maybe because he felt the need to explain to Wu Luo, he said, "It's cold at night. After I'm full, I'll lie in its stomach to sleep, so as not to lose temperature."
Wu Luo nodded in a trance, thinking that your life experience is really rich and wonderful.
When Wu Luo and Yan passed - Hu Po, a woman with no sense of loyalty, had already escaped halfway. She probably got endless courage from cotton, and tried to go to the sea to pan for gold again.Mo and Chi Zheng stood at the booth of the Qikang Tribe looking at the animal bones, but they belonged to the rather annoying type of customers, they only wanted to look but not buy, but the people of the Qikran Tribe had a good temper and didn't say anything.
The Qikuan Tribe is the tribe that raises elephants. Someone is taking care of the baby elephant. According to the law that everything is bigger in this world, this baby elephant may not be born for a long time. Could it be a commodity?
"Will anyone change that elephant?" Wu Luo rubbed his chin and turned to ask Yan.
Yan replied calmly, "Me. They bring some domesticated cubs to me every year, but most of them don't end well. Domestication is not easy, and it often happens that they suddenly return to the wild to attack their masters. , It’s thankless, but Qikang is a big tribe, and they have enough strength to support their ideas. Even if I don’t want this elephant, they will naturally have a way to deal with it.”
What to do?eat it...
"It's really not easy." Thinking of the rabbits in the tribe, Uro couldn't help feeling a lot of emotion, nodded subconsciously, "Such domestication will take several generations, right?"
"Some are docile by nature, a few generations is enough, and some are still the same for more than ten generations." Yan didn't seem to care much about this matter, but looked down at the things on the booth seriously. He hurriedly stood up to say hello, his expression was very respectful, but he was not cold and indifferent, and didn't mean to pay attention.
Most of the stalls of the Seven Bran Tribe are filled with bones, animal skulls that are too big to be used for stewing soup, and ribs and spines of some giant beasts, not too many shoulder blades, and several huge tortoise shells that are processed separately up.
I don't know how they opened the tortoise shell.
"What do you see?"
When visiting these stalls with Amber or by himself, Uro always felt that his heart was full of worries about the country, the people and the long-term future plans of the tribe. He wished to take out a small notebook and write the schedule for the whole afternoon to determine what they would buy. How to buy in order to maximize the benefits.
But with Yan, it seemed that they were really just here to go shopping.
Yan didn't speak, so Wu Luo had no choice but to follow his gaze, and found that it was an extremely long snake bone, but what was strange was that the snake's bone spurs still tightly wrapped the main spine, which seemed to be perfectly round. Putting on the skin can revert to the appearance of a snake.
Uro had seen snake bones with spurs, they were all unfolded one by one, not gathered and surrounded like this.
The snake's skull was very complete, and Wuluo's white-haired sweat was almost visible on a hot day. He decided to stay away from Yan, who was a bit of a ghost, and walked towards Mo and Chi, who he was more familiar with. The two of them were watching very seriously. The same bone, a very thin piece of bone, is very sharp, like a natural spearhead that doesn't need to be beaten.
"What kind of bone is this?" Uron wondered.
"It's the teeth of a beast." Mo explained, with a hint of reluctance, "It's a big beast."
Uro couldn't help but said, "I can't buy it."
Mo and Chi squatted sadly, nodding their heads, enduring silently.
This suddenly caused a strong sense of guilt in Wuluo's heart, as if he took two obedient children out on New Year's Day, because there was no extra money, the children stood obediently outside the window and looked longingly at the inside. Gift.However, Wu Luo had lived with the tribesmen for a long time, and his sense of guilt came and went as quickly as the wind, so he only sympathized with them for three seconds, and then calmly asked the Seven Bran Tribe if there were any seeds of yellow rice noodles.
The Seven Bran Tribe smiled sincerely and sincerely, but they didn't understand.
Uro covered the upper half of his face with a sigh.
All right—translation, please get on the line.
After having Yan, the conversation became much easier. The Qikuan tribe didn't have anything to exchange urgently. They came to this market mainly to see if other tribes had come up with any weird things. , silk cloth is obviously one of them.
This kind of new thing often requires a new price. The people who guarded the booth of the Qikuan tribe didn't dare to make decisions, so they went to invite the big witch who was sitting together.
Yan waited with Wu Luo, and suddenly asked, "The seeds I gave you are all dead?"
"That's not true. They're all growing in the experimental field, but it's not uncommon for one or two to die." Wu Luo said casually, clapping his hands, "There are also a few small green seedlings that were eaten by rabbits. I'll take precautions against them." It’s a bit of a pity that it didn’t survive, even though it finally germinated, but it still didn’t survive.”
Yan smiled, and calmly said, "It's not the same with people."
"what?"
"You may not be able to grow up successfully if you grow up. Even if you grow up, you must continue to absorb nutrients." Yan looked at the passionate Qikang tribe in front of him, and his tone was unhurried, with a natural rhythm like poetry. He almost indifferently Narrated, "We looked at the forests from a distance, bustling with activity, but the fertile soil under our feet was filled with the bones of the same kind. Those who lost their lives will never be discovered and recorded by anyone. Why should it be a pity? They Couldn't have survived."
Wu Luo felt that Yan seemed to be somewhat resistant, but he didn't know which sentence angered him. Seeing that he was not very angry, he didn't know how to answer for a while. Just expose this matter.
I don't know if it's because of Yan's face, or because everyone's business is so simple. The Qikang tribe didn't cheat Wuluo. After they estimated the price of the silk cloth, they opened a full basket, which was wrapped in linen. seed.The Seven Knock tribe hesitated for a while, and the big witch gestured with the clam shell and asked them how to put it back.
Wu Luo asked Chi Pao to go back and bring a big pottery.
Chi Pi Dian Pi Dian ran back, because he was too involved in the animal bones, he was quite unclear about Wu Luosuo's request for pottery, Hu Po thought they were going to exchange things, so he handed a beautiful black pottery to Chi.
Now the Qikang tribe simply gave Wuluo the two baskets of seeds and the linen inside. In addition to the silk cloth, they also wanted black pottery.
The seeds in one basket, excluding those used for sowing experiments, are enough to pound rice and cook for Wuluo to eat for a week.
However, the seeds in the two baskets were of the same kind. Fortunately, Yan helped to translate, and finally replaced several other seeds.
The Qikang tribe laughed because they felt they had taken advantage of it. If these seeds were planted, they would be harvested once or twice a year, and one seed could get dozens or even nearly a hundred in return.Although it took a long time at the beginning, as long as there is harvest, there is profit. These days, there is no taxation and tenant rent like in later generations. The mountains and plains are all their land, and the only thing to drive away is the birds and beasts.
After the seeds are sown, the autumn harvest is basically given away for nothing.
They have not considered any intellectual property rights, and have not yet developed the concept of time for cultivating and domesticating seeds, so they feel that they have taken advantage of such easy-to-harvest things and exchanged them for exquisite silk cloth and black pottery.
As for Wu Luo, he is even happier. Of course there are places selling rice in the supermarket, but that has already been processed. Washing and washing the rice can basically be boiled in the pot. Throwing this kind of rice in the field is equivalent to feeding mouse.Originally, he planned to find the future or slowly domesticate it in that bag of seeds, but now that there are ready-made grain seeds in front of him, and they are obviously mature, he is naturally smiling.
Whether it is an animal or a plant, domestication is not an easy process.
Ulo slipped up Moti who was still salivating over the bones, and let him and the well-behaved Chi Yi carry back a basket, while he started to walk back with his hands empty and relaxed.
After walking a few steps, Wu Luo suddenly realized that something was wrong. He subconsciously looked around, and there was no sign of Yan, so he turned around and saw that the other party was still standing there, as if he was considering whether to buy the snake bone. Can see back.
Wu Luo quickly came back to his senses, he just felt that Yan should have stood by his side.
The idea was too light and ridiculous.
It's like a ridiculous paradox. When there are so many people to choose from in the world, they can keep loneliness, but not when there are only two people left.
Yan was indeed friendly to him, but he also expressed subtle hostility in the Lianshan tribe before.
They are neither enemies nor companions.
Wu Luo quickly turned his head away and continued to look at their stalls. Su Cuu's business ability is very strong. In a short time, he exchanged salt and black pottery for many bones and animal skins, and even a few bones. The farm tools made are very primitive, very similar to Leisi in history, but the shape has changed somewhat, and they are polished with bones. I don’t know what method is used, and the wood and bones are seamlessly connected.
Possibly the gaps were filled with gum.
Seeing that Uro was frowning, Amber asked cautiously, "What's wrong?"
"Why do you want to buy these all of a sudden?" Uro asked her back. It's not impossible. The farm tools they made are still too rough. After all, they don't have much experience. It's okay to buy some farm tools and come back to study, but it's too little and not enough to change them like this. It is a bit extravagant to simply use it as a teaching material.
But this is not a random purchase.
"Don't you want to plow the land?" Amber tilted her head and said, "Other tribes have planted very well. They exchanged pottery with us and told us to burn it to kill insects and weeds. When it grows out, we can scatter it the next year. Ash."
This is very basic knowledge. After listening to it twice, Uro suddenly felt weird and asked, "Why did they tell you?"
"Because we bought this." Amber said naturally.
Uro was stunned for a moment, but he didn't realize it all at once. After watching Hu Po and Su Cuo gesturing to him, he suddenly realized that feelings are to buy things and give information. other tribes.Even if other people make farm tools, they are not as good as them, or when they encounter troubles in farming, they will be the first to think of them. This is a very simple principle of advertising and publicity.
"Thank you." Uro looked at Hu Po's anxious eyes and smiled, "It's good."
This made Amber breathe a sigh of relief. She is not a person with low self-esteem, but sometimes she always feels that she doesn't understand anything in front of Uro, and she is afraid that what she does is useless.
With the farm tools and seeds, Wuluo was a little worried about animal husbandry. He originally wanted to buy some small animals, but Yan's words made him a little discouraged, and some of them would return to wildness in a few generations.
The aggressiveness of the two rabbits when they gave birth is still vivid, and Uro is a little unsure whether to change it.
Smaller animals such as chickens and ducks are sold at the stalls of no tribes, but there are some such as cattle.
Pull it back, where can I put it.
Everyone's house is still up.
Uro couldn't make up his mind, and he was really excited when he first saw the market, but after shopping, it was actually a little pitifully small, so he wasn't that interested.There are quite a few tribes without salt, and Amber soon ran out to change things again. She is a little addicted to trading now, and Uro asked Su Cuo to go out for a walk. After all, it is inhumane to let him watch the stall all the time.
While thinking about what to change next, Uro turned out the paper and began to paint and draw, but he didn't notice that many people were looking at him.
The bazaar suppresses the wildness of people to a certain extent. Everyone is good at using the method of exchange to get what they want. After leaving the bazaar, small-scale friction, disputes and suppression are inevitable, and sometimes even develop into annexation.Ulo's glasses and clothes are unprecedented, no beautiful gems are so clear, no soft sackcloth is so delicate.
After holding the fair for so many years, everyone knew the prices of things more or less, and they felt that they couldn't afford to exchange the corresponding goods, so no one asked Ulo abruptly whether to change the clothes and accessories on his body.
But even if he asked, Uro couldn't understand.
Of course, Uro is not idle. He is recording and drawing people from other tribes, so that those who have not come can understand.
The people of the Sea Fish Tribe have water glands. When Wu Luo thought of the sea snakes that were still alive just now, he suddenly realized that those wet waters were probably the result of them using their bodies as a converter between fresh water and salt water to feed these people who should not be alive. The living environment of the fish that come ashore, right?
Since the thought was a bit disgusting, Uro subconsciously shook his goosebumps and decided to put it aside.
Then there is the bee tribe. Their characteristic is that everyone is dressed like a beautiful queen bee. I don’t know what kind of paint is painted on the body. You can see the powder, but the colors blend beautifully; With the smell of herbs, even the decorations are woven with plants; the people of the Qikang tribe will put empty tassels in their hair, some plant shells are worn as belts or forehead chains, and the arms are rubbed with plant ash...
Later, when Amber came back bouncing, she suddenly had the vivacious temperament of a little girl, or in other words, there is no other better way to celebrate these days than moving her limbs.
Amber held a piece of vanilla, not the kind commonly used in spices, nor the type of ice cream flavor, but a really fragrant grass.
Not the fragrance in the sense of appetite, but the fragrance in the sense of smell.
Amber happily stuffed the grass into Uro's hair, but since Uro just washed and dried it this morning, the grass floated down like a slide.
"Huh?" Amber stared blankly at Uro's hair, as if seeing him for the first time, opened her hand hesitantly, and ran her five fingers back and forth in Uro's hair, feeling the cold and soft hair like soft It slid over the skin like a cloud, and she fished it a few more times, but it still didn't catch on.
Well, my hair was washed for nothing.
Wu Luo picked up the grass and sniffed it, then asked strangely, "Where did it come from?"
"Someone gave it to me." Amber was still in surprise, replying subconsciously, "I said I didn't have anything to change, so he just gave it to me."
"I'm really surprised by how popular you are..." Uro murmured, "Why didn't anyone give me anything, and no one invited me to dinner, so it turns out that amber is popular these days?"
When the sun was about to set, almost all the things they brought at their stalls were sold out. When Wu Luo was about to pack up and go back, Yan suddenly came to the stall.
"There will be a spring celebration at night." Yan said softly, "You may not be used to it. Do you want to live in my house? You still have to participate."
Uro was stunned, and immediately understood the cryptic hint. After he was stunned for a moment, he lowered his head and told Amber about it, asking her opinion. Amber seemed very happy and felt that there was no big problem.
No wonder Yan said that the population is not limited to the Lianshan tribe. It turns out that this market is also a large-scale blind date party.
"I'll go back to live." Uro replied pretending to be calm.
Not only is it likely to happen tonight, but their goods have been exhausted and they must go back to replenish them.
Yan nodded, and didn't bother him anymore, but took out a very thin bamboo tube from his sackcloth, put it near his mouth, and blew it. He couldn't tell what kind of sound it was, it was as long as a clear whistle, and soon came not far away The sound of Lai Xun to cater to, and the dull bang of the leather drum.
The sun seemed to be falling in an instant, and the starry sky was covered with half of its clothes. At the moment when the music sounded, countless bonfires were lit, which suddenly illuminated the other half of the night, and the cheering voices of men and women threw away the day in an instant The civilization at the time of exchange returns to the most primitive joy,
Uro felt as if someone was pulling him by the back of the collar and pulling him into a new era, making him dizzy and groggy.
Both Hu Po and Jie decided to stay, and the two young men did not intend to leave. In the end, Su Cu and Mo went back with Wu Luo.
Before leaving, Amber handed the bag of leaves to Wuluo, asking him to take it back for everyone to taste.
It's just such a little thing, what's there to taste, Wu Luo can't laugh or cry, but he still agrees.
The people from the Sea Fish Tribe watched the men leave in surprise, but they didn't care about it, instead they excitedly grabbed Jie and Hu Po's hands and involved them in the party.
Before Wuluo went up the hillside, he could still see the crowd and the flames, dimly reflecting Yan who was sitting on the tree and playing the tune.
The flame is obviously so warm, but Yan looks colder than the moonlight.
Su Cu and Mo's lack of enthusiasm for this matter surprised Uro, but he didn't gossip to ask why they didn't want to stay. If these two really suddenly awakened and realized that the party would be more lively At this point, leave him in the deep mountains and old forests or take him back together, then Wuluo really has no choice.
There are too many things exchanged, and I have to take them all back to the tribe in one go. Even Uro has to use his strength to help. Fortunately, his health is slowly improving now, and he is not as weak as before. Chicken, still come in handy.
The torches are made from local materials and know the way by default; if you used to have to worry about wild animals going out in the middle of the night, recently it is a market, and the nearby wild animals have already been driven away. The power of a battle.
Well, excluding Wu Luo, Su Cu and Mo are both excellent fighters.
When the moon was in the middle of the sky, they returned to the tribe. They knocked on the door for a long time and no one answered, so Su Cuo had to scream in the middle of the night, which attracted other people to open the door.
"Oh, come quickly."
It was A Cai who came out to greet her, and she called out, "They brought back a lot of things."
The big guys rushed out of the cave together. They seemed to have just eaten, and the oil on their mouths was still dry, "Wu? Mo? Sucu... Where are the leaders?"
Uro asked everyone to move things in, and went to check his botanical garden. It was the same as during the day, but a few weeds had grown. He used the new tools to remove the weeds to avoid absorbing the seeds. nutrition.
It’s so late that we can’t pound the rice, otherwise we can let everyone taste the taste of yellow rice noodles. Wu Luo took out the leaf bag and let Yan cook it for everyone. Such a little thing can only be cooked in soup, which can be regarded as a taste.
After today's experience in the market, of course it is not possible to only go to so few people, Wuluo ordered a few more for them to go with him tomorrow, Xisi is naturally on the list - if she can go to the Gema tribe's technology There are even fewer sneak peeks, no matter how bad it is, everyone can learn by communicating with body language.
The brand-new black pottery is prepared, and there are about a dozen jars of salt, and the silk cloth has not been finished, so it is not enough, so I give it up for the time being.
They just trade pottery for things.
Pottery is still a hard currency these days.
After Wu Luo simply gave instructions for tomorrow's work, he yawned and went back to his small room. He threw all the eagerly awaited eyes and questions to the eloquent Su Cu and the dumb Mo.
The little rabbits had all been moved out, and Wu Luo stretched his waist, knowing that An An had probably taken him out to take care of him, and the rainy season was over, so there was no need for the rabbit family to stay in his house anymore.
The smell of rabbit is not strong, but there is still some, and Uro likes to lock the door, so the air will become dull after a long time.
He first lit the fire in the stove, lit the medicinal herbs, burned them in every corner of the room, and finally threw them into the clay pots in the storage room on the bottom floor.
This mosquito-repelling herb smelled like wormwood, not too strong. Wu Luo was already a little drowsy, but as soon as he was inhaled by the aroma, he simply fell asleep lying on the kang bed that hadn't warmed up yet. .Sleeping at one breath until midnight, Wuluo's back was stabbed by the heat as if he was cupping, and then he woke up in a daze, turned on the fire in the stove, took off his clothes and shoes, and then dragged himself into the Under the quilt, she fell into a deep sleep again facing the full moonlight.
Early the next morning, it was Xisi who frantically knocked on the door.
Uro yawned and went into the box to take a cold shower in the morning. Before he woke up completely, he bit his toothbrush and squinted his eyes in a daze under the shower——Originally, this matter was all on his own, and he was already familiar with it. Take the water pipe to connect the water from the sink, fix it yourself, and it becomes a very simple shower, but you have to do it all over again every time. Later, he found out that there are showers in the sports field, so he just went to the sports meeting every time There is only bathing and no exercise in the hall.
The cold water splashed on him, and the white foam from the toothbrush was washed into the sewer by the water flow. If it was real, it would be the sewer, but who knows where this ghostly place went, maybe it turned into cosmic dust.
Uro is thinking about life.
Nonsense, in fact, he didn't think about anything. If there were any words passing by in his head, it would probably be "this toothpaste is so fucking cold" or "what should I have for breakfast" and other non-nutritious things.
When he came out of the bathroom to wipe his hair, Uro did think of something, or something related to a certain person.
He was wondering if Yan would participate in that celebration.
I vaguely feel that the answer is no, but I'm not sure.
This is not like going to a bar to find someone you want to love after working to the extreme in modern society.Their goal is not relaxation and pleasure, but for reproduction. Just as women are unwilling to be purely reproductive tools, Uro, as a man, also does not want to fall into this predicament himself.
Yan doesn't look like a modern person in every respect, but...he can't say for sure.
He didn't look like the kind of guy who would take himself prisoner.
Uro wiped his hair and baked a piece of buttered bread with his mouth in his mouth. He sat in a nearby beauty shop and picked out a hair dryer to dry his hair. He belatedly remembered whether it was time to get some soap for the people in the tribe. .
Women in the tribe like decoration very much, and so do men, but most of the men decorate themselves with the teeth of wild animals to show their heroism, and rarely wear flowers and grass.The main thing women wear flowers on is their matted and knotted hair, which will almost never fall out. Sometimes Wu Luo suspects that even if he puts a shell on it, it probably won't fall off.
In order to prevent my hair from being bald by the curious Amber, it is reasonable to get some soap, and besides, I take a bath with only water and no soap on weekdays, no matter how clean I wash it, it will not be very clean.
Before leaving the mall, Uro hesitated for a moment, and bought some things anyway.
By the time he opened the door for Xisi, he had changed from an unkempt middle-aged overtime worker to a well-dressed and handsome young man.
"Wu, let's go." Xisi was very excited.
"Let's go."
Uro nodded and closed his door. There were enough people going this time, so he didn't need to carry anything, just hurrying on the road.
And when Uro reappeared at the booth and brought more things, the Sea Fish Tribe showed a rare look of bewilderment, obviously not understanding what happened.But if he didn't understand, it didn't mean that the Seven Knock Tribe didn't understand, and this big tribe understood it very quickly. About the next night, they realized that the Sun Moon Tribe was very close to here.
At that time, the Lianshan tribe had just arrived, and Wuluo was teasing Su Cu whether he should go to meet the old tribe, completely unaware that there was a dispute over interests not far away.
Of course, the market didn’t look like this at the beginning. At the beginning, all the tribes were vying for positions. They were used to exchanging and fighting together. At the first transaction, there was no such a lively blind date meeting, and many corpses fell on the grass. , the blood stained a long stream, and finally merged into the river.
In the end, Yan and the three tribes of Qikuan, Heiqu, and Huaguang came forward to quell the fight.
In that year's deal, everyone got something or a skill they longed for from Yan.
The second year, the third year...
As time passed, they finally formulated the rules and limited the time to establish an invisible system.
Originally near Yan, recently there was a Lianshan tribe that was less than three or four days away. Now a new tribe has emerged, with beautiful ritual vessels and silk cloth, and living nearby. Nanakan was very dissatisfied.
The shamans of Heiqu and Huaguang are more conservative, plus they had very bad memories of Yan, and later received kindness. The market has gained a lot of benefits over the years, so they don't pay much attention to these interests, but are just accepted by them. Qikang stirred up to put pressure on Yan, so he was almost silent all the way.
Yan Jingjing finished listening to the impassioned speech of the great witch of the Qikuan tribe, the content of which was nothing more than how much the three tribes had contributed to the market, how many rules they had formulated, and the credits of sacrifices, etc., and said calmly, " What do you want?"
"Next year, we will go to Qikuan tribe to exchange." The big witch said decisively.
Yan Xingzhi said shortly, "It's up to you, if you can order them around, just say it yourself."
"You agreed?" Da Wu was very excited, "We will send a boat to pick you up then?"
"I won't go." Yan said coldly, turned his eyes to the faces of the two big witches of Heiqu tribe and Huaguang tribe, and said slowly, "You think so too?"
The Heiqu tribe was the first to shake their heads. Their tribe is quite peculiar. Half of the tribe can communicate with birds, not the flexible language communication, but they can understand whether the birds are warning or looking for food. Therefore, the tribe has domesticated many birds. Birds live together.They wear sackcloth when they are hot, and when they are cold, they glue and sew the shed feathers of the birds to make feather clothes. They eat and live with the birds, and the birds also watch over them.
The Heiqu tribe believes in the bird god, and they have lived like birds for a long time. They eat whatever they have, and they don't hoard food excessively.In order to make it easier to communicate with the birds, they have developed many musical instruments. Yan has pointed out many Heiqu tribes, and the two sides have no enmity. They are also looking forward to hearing new songs this year and next year, so the first one jumps backwards. .
The Huaguang tribe was a little hesitant. Their tribe was very good at building ships, and many tribes who came here by boat had their credit.
Among the three tribes, Qikuan is the most powerful, Huaguang can help build the ship, while Heiqu is on guard around.
Therefore, in the past few years, everyone has been headed by the three of them, but this is based on Yan's authority. They do not trust each other. After leaving the market, the closer tribes often have conflicts. It is no longer the relatives and friends who kill each other. It was the first time.
Intermarriage is intermarriage, and joint marriage is joint marriage. After all, the place is only so big, and everyone expands, and fighting is inevitable.
If it weren't for Yan's guarantee here, no tribe would come.
Yan didn't wait for Huaguang Tribe's reply, but just sneered and signaled the three of them to go out. Yan Xiaowang, who was lying on the cabinet to catch flying insects, raised his buttocks like a caterpillar, looked at his father suspiciously and asked, "Are you angry?" ?"
"No." Yan stood by the window and looked out. Uro was laughing in his tribe.
Sometimes Yan finds it weird, that man calmly stands in the world, trapped in this world together, but looking at his appearance and posture, it seems that the surrounding area is just a kind of projection, which can be broken in an instant, and you can still feel him. The breath of modern civilization on your body seems to drag you into the world made of steel and iron as soon as you approach.
You will unconsciously become anxious, watching the traffic, thinking about work, dinner, loans and the future, all the things that normal people should worry about.
But now that he's integrated into that group, it seems as if he has completely become a part of it.
Yan silently stared at the moonlight that was about to appear.
Yan Xiaowang climbed down from the cabinet and asked, "Dad, what's wrong with you?"
"Nothing." Yan replied, "I'm just watching."
"Look at what?"
"just looking."
It wasn't until the third night that Uro saw Yan again. He was sensitively aware of the changes in the attitudes of the nearby tribes towards them. .Those of the Haiyu tribe are fine, for example, the people of the Qikuan tribe are not very happy when they see them, but if they are not happy, they can't do anything.
Dispute in Yan's place, unless it has eight legs or nine heads.
Otherwise, it will definitely not survive.
In fact, Uro didn't think about this at first. He thought it was a mistake in the sold items, or that Amber and the others had a dispute with others.But there is nothing, if there is a problem with the product, they should return it, if there is a problem with Amber, they should go to Yan to deal with it.
Only then did he think of the geographical location.
Everyone is innocent, but pregnant is guilty. Their tribe is not big enough, but they occupy such a good place. No wonder other tribes are not happy.
In fact, Yan Xuan's position is very good. If it wasn't for the small tribe that he let go for a moment, he suddenly picked up Wuluo, there would be no such conflict today.
But then again, this kind of thing is a coincidence, and he has the ability to let the market be placed in front of his house.
Everyone relied on Yan Cai to conduct transactions. This great god lives wherever he likes, and ordinary people can control where he likes.
"I didn't cause you any trouble."
Wu Luo asked, he stood idly against the tree, being too timid was also a kind of escape, while Yan sat on the tree and blew on the thin bamboo pipe.
"No." Yan quickly understood what Wu Luo was asking. There were not many things here, and there were even fewer things that needed to be specifically mentioned. His lips moved, then stopped, and he played the melodious again Here comes the tune.
A chubby little bird was standing on his shoulder, shaking its head majesticly, with a long red feather curled up, looking energetic.
"What bird is that? A sparrow?"
Yan Dan said, "It's a falcon, a small bird of prey."
He held the little chubby bird on his shoulder with his hand. The chubby bird was only about a dozen centimeters long. Its feathers were dense and fluffy. Its eyes were indeed very agile, but it was hard to tell that it was a falcon.
"Is it a matter of distance or..." Uro gestured, "or is it just that small?"
"It's so small." Yan replied, "It only grows so big, but its temperament is very cruel."
Wu Luo said quietly, "I really can't see it."
Yan chuckled lightly, he held up the little fat falcon and shook it lightly, then he spread his wings and flew into the dark night that was about to sink.
"Is that also from the Qikang Tribe?" Wu Luo had nothing to say, and wanted to chat with Yan Duo.
"No, they belong to the Heiqu tribe." Yan was very patient, and answered him in every detail, "The Heiqu tribe lives with birds, and their bones are hollow like birds, so their bodies are light and they can climb Go to a tall tree, but you can’t fly. When a person from the Heiqu tribe dies, the rib closest to his heart will be removed and made into a musical instrument.”
Uro subconsciously said, "You're bragging about this, aren't you?"
"This is bamboo." Yan laughed again, he bowed to look at Wu Luo, his eyes shone slightly, "Do you want to come up?"
"Can I go up?" Uro sneered, "My physique seems to be..."
Before the words fell, Uro felt that something was grabbing his waist. He heard the wind whizzing past his ears, and there seemed to be something under his buttocks. He looked around in shock, only to realize that he had already climbed a tree. He was stunned and said, "You know how to do light work?"
"You're not heavy." Yan put it lightly and perfunctorily, "I dragged the leopard up the tree, and that one was heavy."
"Leopard... a leopard?"
Yan thought for a while, maybe because he felt the need to explain to Wu Luo, he said, "It's cold at night. After I'm full, I'll lie in its stomach to sleep, so as not to lose temperature."
Wu Luo nodded in a trance, thinking that your life experience is really rich and wonderful.
