From eschatological to primitive
Chapter 53
Yan's eyelashes moved slightly, and a little doubt appeared on his handsome face, "Grate?"
Huang Jue bit the meat, didn't know how to explain it, and said vaguely, "Well, it's made of bamboo, so it can leak... You'll know when it's done."
Yan nodded, getting used to Huang Jue's various strange behaviors, "Do you need my help?"
"No, those captives are enough. By the way, I still want to learn archery. I'll be a target later. You can teach me archery."
"There is a target in the open space behind my house. If you want to learn it, just come here and learn it. You don't need to do it specially."
Huang Jue shook his head, "The target I mentioned is different from the one you use. I'll make it for you after dinner."
Huang Jue has seen the target of the tribe, which is a cork standing on the ground. If the people of the tribe want to practice archery, they always shoot at the cork.
——Cork, as the name suggests, is soft wood, somewhat similar to cork, with a slightly harder texture than cork, as opposed to hardwood.
Cork has a low ignition point and is easy to ignite. In addition to using it as a target, people in the tribe use it as a kindling and cooking.
Huang Jue found a whole piece of cork about half a meter in diameter from the pile of dry firewood in the yard, and asked Yan to split the cork into three-centimeter-thick cork boards, and ordered two more wooden arrows. The ends of the arrows were tied together. Make a simple compass.One stands in the center of the cork, and the other slides clockwise. After a while, several shallow circular marks are drawn on the cork.
The shape of the board is irregular, and Huang Jue didn't bother to polish it. Anyway, as long as the inner part is surrounded by circles, the outer part is irregular.
Yan touched the circle on the board in amazement, "How can a circle be drawn like this? It's so convenient! It's so round!"
Huang Jue handed over the simple compass in his hand, "Simple, you can draw it easily with this painting. If you don't believe me, try it on the ground."
Yan naturally believed what Huang Jue said, but he still tried it on the ground, "When I was in the tribe, whenever it was time for sacrifices, the witch would make some round stone plates and bowls, saying that such round vessels should be used for sacrifices. Only the God of Vulcan can represent consummation. This is not only the greatest wish for the new year, but also the most sincere gratitude and prayer to the God of Vulcan. It is a pity that every year no one makes a stone plate and bowl that meets the requirements of the witch. Been unhappy for years..."
Wu even felt that their Vulcan was the most powerful, but their tribe was not the most powerful among all the super tribes. It must be because the sacrifices were not perfect enough to satisfy the Vulcan. It does not bless their tribe to become the most powerful of all super tribes.
There was no need to tell Jue the following words, Yan took advantage of the situation to shut up.A few months passed, Yan suppressed the hatred in his heart, his mentality has gradually calmed down, and he can talk about his tribe without hesitation.
"Consummation? Do all tribal sacrifices emphasize consummation?"
"Maybe, I don't know about other tribes, but the witches in our tribe requested this."
Huang Jue thought of the twelve people who danced the sacrificial dance around the altar. They were all a family of three, and they were all in good health and good spirits. Perhaps, this is also a kind of perfection in the eyes of witches, so they were chosen to dance the sacrificial dance. ?
This thought disappeared in a flash, and Huang Jue and Yan discussed the target again.
"This is the bull's-eye, which is equivalent to the target position of the prey you want to shoot. The outer circle is second, and the next circle is the next... The farther away from the bull's-eye, it means the farther away from the target position of the prey. Judging the accuracy of archery..."
Huang Jue explained the function of the ring.
The more Yan listened, the brighter his eyes became, "This method is good, so that the arrows can be shot more accurately! I'll replace the target on my side with this one."
"Wait until I darken the circle with black charcoal, so that I can see clearly when shooting arrows."
After the two discussed it, a brand new target stood outside the yard.
Huang Jue didn't think it was too cold anymore. After adding a layer of animal skin clothes on his body, he learned archery with Yan.
"When shooting an arrow, hold the bowstring with your right hand like this, hold the back of the bow tightly with your left hand, hold the arrow steady, and keep your eyes on the direction of the arrow..." Yan wrapped his arms around Huang Jue's body, and taught Huang Jue how to shoot arrows.
The warm breath brushed past the ear, blowing the broken hair around the ear to shake back and forth, arousing the slightest itchiness.Huang Jue shrunk his neck uncomfortably, leaned back slightly, and accidentally leaned against the warm and generous chest.
Huang Jue immediately leaned forward as if he had been scalded, the arrow loosened from his hand, and shot directly to the ground one meter away.
There was a strange emotion in my heart, and it felt a little strange.
Yan frowned, and patted Huang Jue's head lightly, "You must concentrate when archery. If you are frizzy, you will never shoot well."
Huang Jue also felt that he was overreacting. We were all brothers, and we had a lot of contact during training, so why did he all of a sudden be whining about a bitch today?
Scorning himself quietly in his heart, Huang Jue calmed down and continued to learn archery with Yan.
Then things went much smoother. At the beginning, Huang Jue missed the target. At the end, he was able to shoot the arrow steadily on the target, although they were all near the edge of the target.
Huang Jue was very excited, bragging to Yan, "I think I am the legendary genius, and I will definitely become a good archer in a short time! In the future, we will be partners, and I will be able to shoot a lot of arrows without using supernatural powers." prey!"
Seeing his beaming expression, Yan felt amused in his heart, and couldn't bear to break his sweet dream, and followed his words, "Well, I believe you will become a good archer."
Huang Jue patted Afraid Yan on the shoulder, and laughed, "You have vision!"

witch's house
Mu showed Wu the silk, "This is the cloth made of silk by Jue's slaves. Jue said it's called silk."
Wu stretched out the silk and took a closer look, his eyes filled with amazement, "No wonder Jue said that the God of the Earth wears this, and only this kind of cloth is worthy of the status of the God of the Earth!"
Mu corrected him, "It's silk!"
"Yes, yes, it's silk. Jue really said that you can weave this by raising silkworms and spinning silk?"
Mu looked at him, "Can I still lie to you? I'm thinking, if there are more silkworms next year, ordinary people in the tribe can also raise silkworms, weave them into silk and bring them to the trade conference, and I'm sure they can get back a lot of things. "
Wu pondered for a moment, "You can let the people in the tribe raise silkworms first, as for the trade, we will talk about it later." In the past when the tribe discovered salt mines, the ancestors did not dare to trade them with other tribes. Silk is more attractive than salt. Note that the risk of taking it out is even greater. When the tribe does not have enough self-protection capabilities, Wu does not intend to take risks.
Mu understood Wu's thoughts, and regretted, "It's a pity that such a good thing can't be traded."
Neither of them took this victory against the Shew Tribe seriously. The reason why the Shew Tribe lost so badly this time was entirely because the people of the Shew Tribe, from the leader to the soldiers below, didn't pay attention to the Tu tribe. , suffered the loss of the rival in love, otherwise, even if the Zhu tribe would lose, the Tu tribe would not win so easily.
Wu didn't care and said, "It's nothing to be sorry about. Our tribe will always develop, and the silk can be taken out at that time. By the way, do you agree to distribute the young silkworms to the people in the tribe?"
Mu Dao, "Jue thinks so too, that's why I came here to tell you."
Wu nodded, "Jue is now more and more considerate of the tribe. Jue donated such good things, we can't let him suffer, um, send him some salt, give him a hundred bamboo tubes, it's his contribution to the young silkworms remuneration."
Wu has a thorough understanding of Huang Jue's temperament now, and instead of waiting for Jue to come to ask for a reward, it is better for him to take it out now.
Mu Dao, "Don't worry, we'll talk about it after the young silkworms are divided. I have one more thing to discuss with you. I'm thinking, don't force those soldiers to polish their wooden arrows. In winter, when everyone is free, it's better to teach Everyone has some experience in survival."
"Like?"
"For example, warriors who are good at hunting can teach people how to catch prey more easily; people who are good at making traps can teach people how to make traps; and people who are good at weaving can teach people how to weave..." Mu Yi He made a lot of assumptions in a tone, and finally concluded, "Even if people in the tribe can't remember them all, as long as they remember a part, it will be helpful to them. However, if people teach, they can't be taught in vain. The tribe has to give them some rewards."
At this time, the two of them were very glad that they had listened to Huang Jue and saved a part of their property in the name of the tribe. Otherwise, they would not have dared to talk about the reward.However, then again, if there is no pay, who will teach others their experience for nothing.
After this incident, the two of them became more aware of the importance of the tribe's property, and when they encountered anything in the future, they wanted to take part of the property to the tribe first.
"By the way, the kids will also be able to use these things in the future. After they finish reading, let them come and learn."
Mu added another sentence.
Naturally, Wu would not object, but was a little worried, "Your idea is good, but where will they go to learn it? There is not such a big room to accommodate them?"
To learn this, it is not a matter of dozens of people, but hundreds of people, and it is absolutely impossible without a large enough room.
"If I had known earlier, we should have built a few more big houses!"
Wu and Mu looked at each other and sighed together.
Although it is said that it will be possible to study again when it is warmer next year, but it is always a pity to waste a winter like this.
Mu frowned and said, "Why don't we take advantage of the good weather these two days to build another big house?"
Wu looked at him speechlessly, "The ground is so hard that even a stone axe can't break it. How can we build a house?" It's a bit of an exaggeration to say that even a stone ax can't break it, but it's really not easy to dig.
"Jue can use ice to make windows, maybe he can use ice to make a house?" Mu had a whim.
Wu, "You mean, let people learn in the ice in the future? Wouldn't it be frozen?"
"Don't be afraid, if it's cold, just order a few more braziers."
"Won't the ice melt?"
"It's so warm in your room, the windows are frozen, and I haven't seen the windows melt."
"...Also! Can an ice house really be made?"
……
Huang Jue's answer was, "Of course it can, and it's easier to build than an adobe house. The disadvantage is that the ice house can only be used in winter, and it will melt when the weather gets warmer."
