Otherworldly Survival
Chapter 62
In the evening, the sun had just set, the sky was still early, and the air was still sultry.The hunting team in their house came back with their prey, and when they passed by the stream, they were dissected and cleaned up.
When the house was being built, Xia Jinming mentioned that the eaves should be left out, and the meat should not be hung in the house, as it would cause an odor.He gestured and said, it didn't come to fruition, and the people in the tribe really figured it out.
Those who own this house are all experts. Four beasts were caught in the Daji Mountain that day. In fact, one of them was estimated to weigh about [-] catties. Six people can share a lot of meat.
The meat from the sea generals was hung under the eaves, drained first, and then salted and air-dried.
"Where are you going?" Xia Jinming came back a little early, thinking that he might be busy with other things.
"The partition wall in the house hasn't been built yet. We discussed it and won't go out tomorrow. Let's finish this first." After Hai finished speaking, he carried the wooden bucket and left.He is going to dig the dirt.
Xia Jinming listened, anyway, he was not in a hurry to arrange dinner, so he took Xiaoguai and Xiaobai to mow the grass around.
At first, I thought that young grass and mud could be used to make mud bricks, but later I found that as long as it is grass, if it is finely chopped, the mud bricks made are similar.
Finding a good piece of grass, Xiaobai went to pull the thin rattan, while Xia Jinming and the mob buried themselves in cutting it with bone knives.
"Jin Ming."
It seemed that someone was calling him.Xia Jinming raised his head in doubt. Standing beside a big tree not far away was a man with one arm. He was almost two meters tall. Somewhat scary.
"What's the matter?" Xia Jinming took two steps closer and smiled kindly.He didn't let the mobs follow him, for fear of frightening the man.
The man stretched out his right hand, spread it out, and asked nervously. "This, can I eat it?"
Xia Jinming took a closer look, "This kind of root is edible." His eyes fell on the man, and he hesitated for a while before continuing. "But you are not fit to eat this." Seeing the man's ashen face, he couldn't bear it. "You can dig more, and I'll exchange the meat with you."
"Okay." The man regained his energy immediately.
Xia Jinming returned to Xiaoguai and Xiaobai's side, and continued to mow the grass, thinking in his heart that he had to talk to Hai about this at night.
After cutting a solid bundle of grass, Xia Jinming led the mob and Xiaobai back. He knew that the man was right behind him, so he didn't turn his head and say anything.
In front of the big house, Lie and Yong were mixing mud, while Yu and Xuehua were cutting grass and making mud bricks. Hai came over with four buckets of mud in his arms, looking relaxed.
"Hai. I'll exchange the meat with him for some roots, you go and see how to exchange it." Xia Jinming pointed to the man behind him who was not approaching.There is a way of exchanging things here, and he is not very clear about it.
The man was holding a pile of rhizomes in his arms, freshly dug out, still muddy.He looked at the sea, a little cautious. "Patriarch."
"Come with me." Hai said something, walked under the eaves, took out the knife pinned to his waist, cut a piece of meat and handed it to the man. "You take the meat first, and I'll go into the house and get a wooden basin."
The man nodded happily, and stood there obediently waiting.
Hai came over with a wooden basin, and the man put the rhizome in his arms into the wooden basin, and asked boldly. "In the future, can I change it in the future?"
Hai thought for a while and answered. "Come over in three or four days for a change."
"Okay." The man carried the meat and left happily.
Today's dinner was eaten together, Xia Jinming saw that everyone was there, so he shared his thoughts. "Some people in the tribe can't hunt wild animals. If this continues, they won't live long. I thought, I can let them do what they can, exchange meat in the tribe. For example, I plan to make some pills for Yong and Lie, The two of them don't have time to look for medicine, so they can ask these people for help and exchange herbs for meat. How do you feel?"
A society where the strong prey on the weak is a bit cruel to describe in detail.But the environment is like this, relying on others alone is not the solution.
"Are you going to make pills for both of us?" Yong's attention was completely attracted by this matter.Judging by Reina's expression, it's obviously the same.
"Yes. The mob got a honeycomb with a lot of honey." After a pause, Xia Jinming continued. "You two remember to give the little monster something in exchange for its honey."
Yong and Lie Qiqi nodded, their eyes were shining brightly.That is hope.They are well aware of Jin Ming's medical skills, the injuries in this body may really be healed, the value of force is very likely to be improved, and one day he will become a strong person, which is also conceivable.
"What do you think of what I said earlier?" Xia Jinming repeated the question just now.
"That's a good idea." He continued.
He said with a forced smile. "In this way, Xuehua doesn't have to go to the seaside to cook salt. I'll hunt more game and exchange it for meat." The woman is pregnant with his cub, so it's better to stay at home honestly.
"Can animal skins be exchanged for meat?" Meng asked.
"Yes." Xia Jinming thought for a while and said again. "The more difficult people in the tribe will be exchanged first, what do you think?"
Hai glanced at the crowd, saw that none of them had any objections, and said something neatly. "Okay. Let's talk about it in the tribe tomorrow morning."
"Let's set up a stone slab on the square, that is, how much meat can be exchanged for a piece of clothing, etc., so that no one will mess around here." Xia Jinming was also afraid of bullying.
"Leave the one who built the partition wall in advance, and finish this job well." Hai said, put down the empty bowl and stood up. "I'll call the rest of the elders over, and discuss this matter while the weather is fine."
He ate the barbecue in twos and threes, and then stood up. "You come with me, I know there is a big rock, let's go and carry it back."
After hearing this, Gulu Gulu drank the soup in the bowl, nodded to Qiang, and the two left in a hurry.
Not long after, Hai brought the rest of the elders over and discussed what he just said in front of the house.The sky was a little gloomy, and Qiang He came over carrying the stone fiercely.Xia Jinming took a look, what the hell!What a big stone, it should be more than four meters high and nearly three meters wide.
It just so happened that Hai and the elders had already discussed the specific details of the exchange.Seeing that the stone was moving over, they had high force values, and even in the dark, their vision would not be affected too much, so they simply struck while the iron was hot, and engraved the things they had just discussed on the stone.
Xia Jinming didn't know until now that they usually have a lot of vocabulary when they talk, but they don't know how to write. It doesn't mean that they don't know how to write. The characters are pictographic characters, and the characters look more like a pattern, which is very vivid. , he can understand at a glance.
"One piece of animal skin and one piece of meat, how much is this piece of meat? Some are big and some are small." After watching for a while, Xia Jinming asked what he didn't understand.
"I'll go home later, and I'll cut a piece of meat for you to see. There are rules for this, and everyone in the tribe knows it. It was passed down from the big tribe, so you can know it when you hold it in your hand." Hai explained. .
Xia Jinming blinked his eyes, he didn't invent the weight, but he had the concept of weight.He didn't think about it, it's quite troublesome to say something about it, and he has to do something later, and he doesn't understand it very well, so it's better to let it develop naturally.
"What's with the characters next to this meat?" Three pieces of meat against one piece of meat?Five pieces of meat to one piece of meat?Xia Jinming looked at the misty eyes.
"Three pieces of meat are against one piece of meat. These three pieces of meat are common beasts, and one piece of meat is the last-grade prey. Five pieces of meat are against one piece of meat. Five pieces of meat are common beasts, and one piece of meat is medium-sized prey. The meat of ordinary wild animals can only be exchanged for low-level prey. and medium game."
After explaining it like this, Xia Jinming understands that the exchange is usually with ordinary wild animal meat. After reading it again, he will understand. The details are still very reasonable.Like exchanging a piece of animal skin for a piece of meat, you just take a piece of animal skin and ask the other party to make clothes. The craft of making clothes has long been popularized in the tribe.
For such a large stone, half of the front side is engraved. The engravings are very deep and clear, and can be understood at a glance.When this was done, it was quite dark, and the moon hung in the sky.The surrounding area was quiet, except for the occasional chirping of insects and roaring of beasts.
"Tell me about this in the tribe tomorrow morning. It's getting dark now. Let's all go home." Hai put away the knife and looked at the stone with satisfaction.
Only then did Xia Jinming remember that he forgot to take a bath, no, the four of them forgot to take a bath. "We didn't take a shower."
"Go now." Knowing how much Jin Ming loves to be clean, Hai immediately answered.
When everyone listened to this conversation, they all laughed and said that it was too much trouble.
On the contrary, Yujue's bath is quite good. "I'll go too." He glanced at Li next to him.
"Together." He continued.
The moonlight is nice and bright tonight.When he walked halfway, Xia Jinming's footsteps suddenly stopped, covering his brow with one hand, and he crouched on the ground in pain.
"Jinming." Hai was the first to react, and quickly hugged Xia Jinming in his arms. "What's wrong?"
After a while, the burning sensation eased, and Xia Jinming took a deep breath again and again. "It hurts." It was only after he opened his mouth that he realized that his voice was hoarse, with a little choking. "My heart hurts, as if there is a fire burning."
"How could this be?" Yu asked anxiously, and then said. "Why don't you go home first."
Xia Jinming was about to say something, but just as he opened his mouth, the center of his brow was burned again, this time the pain was more severe than before, he was shivering in Hai's arms, and moaned uncontrollably .
"Mother, look, what's wrong with Jin Ming?" Hai didn't know what to do, and hugged Jin Ming tightly in his arms.
He tightly grasped Xia Jinming's hands, stretched out the other hand towards his eyebrows, who knows, he retracted his hand as soon as he touched it.
"I, I, I don't know how to look at it." Yu stood in a panic, not knowing where to put his hands and feet.
Xia Jinming trembled even more, and the groans from his mouth became more and more shrill. After a while, he was already sweating profusely, as if he had been fished out of the water.
"Xiang, Xiangxiang." The anxious and terrified mob immediately calmed down, and leaned in front of Xia Jinming, with his head close to his eyebrows, his nose twitching slightly. "The fragrance of the elixir, the fragrance of the elixir."
What do you mean... Hai and the three of them didn't realize it all at once.
"Look." Li's voice was very dry, with an indescribable emotion.
Hai Heyu's eyes moved from Xiaoguai's body to Xia Jinming's eyebrows, and there was a faintly visible pattern on the eyebrows, exuding a lustrous luster, and the familiar... fragrance.
The three people and the two beasts were completely stunned. They stared at the pattern dumbfounded and smelled the fragrance, as if they had lost their souls.
At this time, Xia Jinming's moaning in pain became sharp in vain, and the mournful shout stopped abruptly in the middle of it, but he couldn't bear the pain and fell into a coma. With his coma, the pattern that emerged between his eyebrows disappeared No, the intoxicating fragrance also disappeared.
When the house was being built, Xia Jinming mentioned that the eaves should be left out, and the meat should not be hung in the house, as it would cause an odor.He gestured and said, it didn't come to fruition, and the people in the tribe really figured it out.
