Chronicles of Primordial Wars

Returning to the tribe, after completing the saber-washing ceremony, everyone in the hunting team went down the mountain. Shao Xuan didn't have much prey, so he went down the mountain with his prey directly.

This time Wu didn't leave Shao Xuan's conversation immediately, because all his attention was on the green thief brought back by the advance team, and he didn't have time to pay attention to other things, but after the saber-washing ceremony, Wu told Shao Xuan to wait. I will find him again in a few days, when the witch will find someone to talk to.

The number of beasts brought back by the advance team from this hunt is not as high as before, and the quality of the beasts is not as good as before, but this time they have the greatest contribution. It is impossible to tell the story of the green thief directly. Only a very small number of people in the tribe know about it, and those who do know are also people who have a considerable position in the tribe or who have contributed a lot. Most of the ordinary people do not know, the only thing they know is that the advance team contributed a lot this time.

Most of the ordinary people of the tribe will not worry about what contribution the advance team has made. They are more concerned about how the people in their families who participated in the hunt have harvested. Many people were curious about the performance of the advance team, but after returning to the tribe, they forgot about it and were busy dealing with the prey.

Shao Xuan dragged the prey home, put the things down, and ran to Lao Ke's side, bringing some fresh meat and a few bird eggs by the way. When going down the mountain, Shao Xuan also gave Mai and Langga a few eggs. Anyway, he ate more eggs in the green space, and he brought them back because he wanted everyone to eat them. See if the eggs in the green space are different from other places. There is no difference, whether it can be a medicine egg or not.

In Lao Ke's house, Shao Xuan briefly talked about the harvest this time. Of course, some things that need to be kept secret can't be said. He just focused on the kind of white hair that was set up.

"That kind of white hair is very suitable for setting the sleeve after it is connected into a thread, but unfortunately it cannot be stored for a long time. I originally wanted to bring some back to show you, but I encountered some trouble in the middle. It went bad, lost its elasticity, broke when pulled, and by the time we got back, it had degraded."

Although Shao Xuan said some words when he explained it, Lao Ke felt very unfamiliar, but he could infer the meaning of these words and understand what Shao Xuan said.

"It's a pity." Old Ke said. Materials are hard to find, which is one of the main reasons for the gradual loss of this craft.

"It would be nice if we could find a way to bring them back completely in the future," Shao Xuan said.

Lao Ke shook his head, "Don't force it."

For Lao Ke, his biggest wish is to pass on the skills he has mastered to the right people, and now, he has found Shao Xuan, and he has no regrets. Moreover, it was luck and strength that Shao Xuan was able to follow the advance team and come back safely.

"What are these eggs?" Lao Ke asked, looking at the eggs that Shao Xuan threw into the pot.

"I brought it back from there. People in the advance team often eat it, so I brought some back."

Hearing Shao Xuan's words, Lao Ke didn't ask any more questions. Since Shao Xuan said that the advance team often eats, it should be a good thing.

Shao Xuan left three eggs, and gave the rest to Lao Ke. After dinner at Lao Ke's side in the afternoon, Shao Xuan took Caesar home.

Before the sun went down, Shao Xuan planned to dispose of the animal meat he brought back.

A stone pot was set up in the house, and the fire was lit. Shao Xuan put the remaining three eggs into the stone pot, and planned to cut them up after they were cooked, and take them to the other side of the cave.

After throwing the egg into the stone pot filled with water, Shao Xuan didn't care, and dealt with the animal meat outside the house, otherwise those Yeyans would come out again when it was dark.

Caesar was lying at the door of the wooden house, holding a bone and chewing, when suddenly his ears moved,

He turned his head to look at the stone pot in the house, listened carefully, got up and ran to the stone pot and looked into the pot.

There are three bird eggs in the pot, all as big as Shao Xuan's fist. These three are not the largest or the smallest among the eggs that Shao Xuan brought back, and there are not so many patterns, but the colors of the eggs are different.

Shao Xuan brought in the chopped meat and marinated it in a stone vat. When he turned his head, he saw Caesar staring at the stone pot.

"What are you looking at?" Shao Xuan walked over and glanced at the stone pot.

At a glance, one of the eggs was cracked, and the egg was still shaking.

Holy shit!

Shao Xuan directly put his hand into the stone pot, fished out the broken egg, and looked at it in his hand.

The eggshell just cracked, and Shao Xuan fished it in time without water. The crack in the egg was getting bigger and bigger, and there was a chatter from inside.

Clearly, the bird in the egg is about to come out.

Looking back at the stone pot, Shao Xuan fished out the other two eggs in the stone pot with his other free hand.

Fortunately, the stone pot has just been set up, and the water temperature has not yet risen, otherwise it will be boiled for a while, and the bird that is about to break its shell will be cooked directly.

This kind of situation has never happened in the eggs that I brought back. I ate so many eggs, and none of them were formed. When digging out the eggs at that time, Shao Xuan just took the eggs that looked like they had just been stolen, as he said, and generally there would be no formed birds in them. It's a nipping experience. It's not that the sympathy is overflowing, but that the green space is not easy to ignite, and if there are formed birds in the eggs, he doesn't like eating them raw, and it's inconvenient to cook eggs, that's all.

Eggs that have just been stolen are generally clean, while eggs that have been left for a long time have some smudges or other marks on the eggs. The birds that stole eggs don't pay much attention to hygiene, and the nests are not well-made, very simple, and the bird droppings from the bird's nest above can also fall into the bird's nest below. So Shao Xuan picked clean ones at that time, and didn't shake them one by one to confirm.

Besides, whether the egg is formed or not, in fact, there is no need to care too much in that case. Before that, Shao Xuan had never encountered a chick in an egg. Unexpectedly, there is one now.

Shao Xuan's hand that had just peeled off the animal skin was still bloody, the cracks on the egg in his palm were getting bigger and bigger, and the chirping sound from inside became clearer. Shao Xuan could clearly feel the movement of the egg through the palm of his hand. Looking at the egg, he thought to himself, if this little bird can survive, it will be treated as a chicken. , slaughtered and eaten at the end of the year.

The broken eggshell was pushed out, and the chicks inside gradually revealed their bodies.

It was not the chick that Shao Xuan had seen before. The bird was wet and hairless, and did not open its eyes.

Chicks are divided into early birds and late birds. Early birds can open their eyes as soon as they come out of their shells, such as chicks. They are fluffy and can stand and walk, move on their own, and feed independently. However, after the late adult bird hatches, its eyes cannot be opened, and there is not much hair on its body, so it has to stay in the nest and rely on its parents to feed.

And this one in Shao Xuan's hand is obviously a late bloomer.

Shao Xuan observed the beak of the little chick in his hand, and the shape of the beak indicated that it was meat-eating.

Probably because the smell of blood on Shao Xuan's hand stimulated the chick, the bird had a big mouth and pecked Shao Xuan's hand, probably thinking it was food, but found that it couldn't swallow it.

Shao Xuan looked around, took out a piece of old animal skin and placed it on the stone table, put the chick in his hand on it, then dragged out a piece of unsalted animal meat, cut off a small piece, and tore it into smaller pieces. Blocks, sandwiched between two thin wooden strips into the open beak.

The meat that was cut was the weakest among the prey that Shao Xuan hunted, but it wasn't too weak. Shao Xuan didn't know if the bird could withstand the energy in the meat.

Unexpectedly, the little chick swallowed it directly, then continued to grow its mouth, and kept chirping.

There seems to be no problem.

Shao Xuan continued to feed it several times before it closed its mouth. Sleep after eating.

Looking at the little chick nesting on the hide, Shao Xuan shook the two eggs he had fished out to hear the sound, and then threw them into the stone pot to continue cooking.

As for the little chick that had just broken its shell, Shao Xuan shook his head, it was almost cooked, but fortunately it hatched before it was cooked.
