[Crossing the Farm] The witch doctor rises up

A long time ago, the assembly was a place where each clan brought the whole clan to the assembly to eat and drink.However, with the development of the times, the increase of the number of clans, the fixed place of residence, and the gradual rise of conflicts and entanglements among the clans, it has evolved into sending only a dozen representatives to each assembly.

Because the cloth people live mainly on cloth, there are not many men in the tribe - but they don't care, because of the cloth, their tribe always has people from other tribes to exchange from time to time Bu, usually at that time, the women of the Bu ethnic group can sleep with the men among the people who come to exchange, and then conceive and give birth to the next generation.

Men generally do not refuse.

Because of this, the status of women in the Bu people has always been higher than that of men, and there are more women than men.

When they were living comfortably before, they didn’t feel how important men were. After all, apart from hunting occasionally, they usually used them to spin cloth—with cloth, not to mention food, even men could get it back.

Therefore, when the crisis broke out, the cloth women who spent most of their time spinning and rarely spent hunting and exercising suffered.Because although they survived, they lost a large number of men in the clan.

Originally, there were few men in their clan, but now, there are quite... few.Without a male escort, the women of the cloth ethnic group dare not bring so much cloth to the place where the assembly is held.

However, after the tribe has suffered a loss, it is much more convenient and quicker to exchange things with cloth than to repair them by themselves.

And because it is easy to be attacked by wild animals along the way, so the Bu tribe decided to bring two men of their own tribe, and then go to ask for foreign aid.There is no way, since I have no ability, I can only ask for foreign aid.

But among the Bear tribe not far from the Bu tribe and the Youhe tribe a little farther away, they decisively chose the latter.In fact, because they had a bad relationship with the Xiong tribe before, and now the Bu tribe does not want to have any unexpected contacts with the Xiong tribe except for gatherings and exchanges.

After listening to the story of the good girl in the Bu tribe—because she seems to be the leader of the seven-member team—Wu Di frowned: "You haven't said why you have encountered any trouble before."

Even if you want to help them, you have to figure out the ins and outs, right?They only said why they came to the Youhe tribe to "hire bodyguards", but they didn't say why their tribe lost so much labor... If it's just an ordinary natural disaster or something, don't worry, if it's because of the plague or something Oh no.

Hearing Wu Di ask this, the sad expression when they started talking appeared on Haomei's face again.She lowered her head and sighed deeply: "Yes, the mountain god is angry..."

******

Apart from Haomei and her tribe's anger about the mountain god and some excessive modifiers, Wu Di sorted out the other party's rhetoric, and then realized that they had encountered a natural disaster.

Because the Bu people are too afraid of the so-called mountain god, Wu Di is not sure whether it is a collapse, a landslide, a mudslide or a mixture. The only thing he can be sure of is that the Bu people have begun to know how to build houses.

Well, the two are not unrelated.

According to Haomei and the others, their houses are made of wood nearby—they won’t say more, after all, this is a secret of each clan—for the convenience of occupying land, the wood is cut down and nearby build house.

In order to keep out the wind, the Bu people all built their houses on a hillside - the surrounding area is bare, because the wood is used for building houses and heating barbecues.

Over-cultivation of mountains and forests will cause landslides. Although this is common sense that Wu Di, who used to live in modern times, knows, it is incomprehensible to the Bu people...even people of this era.The only thing they could think of was that the gods were angry.

Seeing the people around him widen their eyes and empathize with fear because of the horror of the gods being angry with the good girls, Wu Di decided not to talk about scientific explanations.

But building a house with wood gave him a reminder—you know, because of the heavy rain last night, up to now, the entire cave has been full of damp moisture, which is extremely humid.

If you live here for a long time, you must have arthritis.Maybe he should think about building a house too... wait until the meeting comes back.

"...The scariest thing is that it rained after that!"

"What's so scary about rain?" It was Lihua who asked this question. Although they were all afraid of lightning and thunder, they were not afraid of heavy rain. At most, they felt that the rain made it difficult for them to go in and out.

Probably due to the "hostility" of being a beautiful woman, Haomei glanced at Lihua, then slightly closed her eyes and said in a frighteningly erratic tone: "Because they hurt when they fall on the body! It's like being pricked by a prickly ball. It’s the same! Do you know? The heavy rain only lasted half a day, but when we went out to look, we found that the grass and leaves on the ground had turned yellow! Oh, Lord Mountain God, please forgive your people!”

Although she was dissatisfied with Haomei's look at her just now, Lihua was also frightened by the content of Haomei's words, so she kept her mouth tightly shut, for fear of offending someone.

The "terrible rain" that Haomei said frightened everyone who listened to her, and even Wu Di's face sank - because it was obvious that Haomei was talking about acid rain.

But the question is, how to form acid rain in such a primitive society?

******

In fact, when Ji heard that nearly half of the men of the Bu tribe had died—although there were not many men of the Bu tribe in the past—his mind was moved, but thinking of the current situation, he still gave up that little impulse. Suppress it.

No hurry, they have plenty of time.

Calculating the time, it turns out that if you have to rush to the rally, it seems that it is almost time to start now.So Ji, the patriarch, agreed to the request of the cloth clan——with twenty bolts of cloth as a reward.

Wu Di was startled when he heard that he was going to leave on the morning of the third day—why so fast? !

But think about it, in this era without planes, trains or even bicycles, it seems to take a lot of time to walk on two legs.

It's just that, if it's so fast, he still has a lot of things that he hasn't prepared yet.

Knowing that during the gathering and exchange, in addition to the exchange between tribes and tribes, tribes and clans, and clans, there can also be exchanges between individuals, so after dinner, Wu Di hurriedly returned to himself. The cave is ready to take inventory of "properties", and completely ignores Haomei and Lihua who are hesitant to talk behind them.

Seeing this, Gong followed without eating much fish.

Because the original idea of ​​the tribe was not to disturb the envoy, they chose a cave with a natural barrier of a large stone.When Gong walked to the entrance of the cave under the thin slanting light, he saw Wu Di lowering his head and pinching those mushrooms drying on the leaves.

Because Wu Di asked Gong to take the mushrooms back in advance and spread them out to dry, the mushrooms that have been exposed to the sun for nearly an afternoon have already started to wilt, and they can be taken away after being exposed to the sun for another day.

"Gong, this is all your property!" Because Wu Di actually didn't have anything personal to exchange, so the mushrooms he prepared were all for Gong.

"Huh? Me?" Gong was a little caught off guard, more surprised than happy.

"Actually, I asked my good sisters, and they said that thirty mushrooms can be exchanged for a piece of cloth... But I think the price is completely negotiable. I just counted, and we probably have nearly three hundred mushrooms, and we will not worry about it then. I can’t get any good ones.” In fact, he wanted to change them right away, but thinking that there were still a lot of fresh mushrooms in the forest at that time, in order to prevent them from “lowering the price”, Wu Di didn’t say a word about the mushrooms, and even asked The price is very reserved.

How can girls in this era compare to Wu Di, who is slippery (?) in society, who is caught up in the conversation, and even happily thinks that he has taken advantage of it.

Cough, I can only say that people who have been in society for a long time are really cruel.

Wu Di was still talking about what to do at that time, but Gong felt a little uncomfortable listening, thinking that this meant that those people from the Bu tribe had chatted with Wu Di for a long time... Ah, really, could it be said that he was worried about Wu Di? Did Dee feel uncomfortable because his attention was diverted to someone else?

******

Because there is no more time to prepare, Wu Di and Gong Zai prepared a bag of dried mushrooms and four nets woven with thin vines—not only as woven bags, but also as fishing nets... probably like this Three things, five wooden combs (the others were given to Abao and Lihua in the tribe).

These three things are very light, so Wu Di still carried his backpack.

Because I have been traveling in the jungle, although I have not been exposed to the sun, the continuous high temperature is unbearable.Before dark, they found a place that could barely shelter from the wind. It was a concave cave formed by three boulders that was turned upside down at [-] degrees. It was a bit crowded for nearly thirty people to curl up in this cave, but at least this The place is sheltered from the wind, and mosquitoes are rare.

Although you can't lie down and sleep, you can still sit and lean against the stone wall for a while.

"Let's lean against me and sleep for a while." Wu Di is very good at resting in the wild, so after making himself comfortable, Wu Di directly pulled Gong Yi who was sitting beside him, then leaned against him, and stretched out his hands to cover him. Christine's two furry ears.
