Fall In Love with the Technology Tree

The Yunwu Mountains in Hepu County, Jiaozhou, in the icy winter rain, are like a blue-blue dragon shrouded in white mist.

The raindrops pounded on the evergreen broad-leaved shrubs, on the wild ferns, and on the winding vines on the cave roofs.

"I've said it many times, Ah Wen, the water must be boiled before drinking." While cutting wood, the gynecologist Cheng Shi rudely instructed an indigenous boy with a tattooed face . She speaks the native language best among women's doctors, and even learns various dialects faster than Liu's.

The young man named Awen put down the clay pot shyly, first shouted "Chengyi" in Chinese, and then defended in dialect: "It is raining and wet, and there is no way to make a fire."

Cheng has cut off the wet skin on the outside of the dead branch. She beckoned and called for two women in white coats to drill into the wood to make fire.

After ten minutes of tossing, the fire of the women's doctors finally started, and it was roaring under the water tank. The firelight illuminated the gloomy mountain walls, casting shadows of human beings, large and small, on the moss-cleared rocky ground.

The warmth and dryness attracted the children, and immediately there were little girls and boys tentatively approaching the fire. Cheng and Liu began to put fungi, vegetables and pieces of meat into the boiling kettle. With the aroma of the food, the children swallowed.

The men with fur around their waists, and strange patterns painted on their upper bodies and faces, stood by with sharp wooden spears. They are not as tall as the Central Plains men, but their muscles should not be underestimated.

You must take a bath every day.”

Cheng was young, vigorous and good at language, and immediately responded: "Grandma, I have said it many times. There are many worm eggs in the water in your south, and drinking directly will easily get sick. Take a bath and eat meat. Well, it's all for the sake of health, and it has nothing to do with luxury. I'm just curious, like you, sleeping in a humid cave in winter and sleeping with mosquitoes in summer, won't many people die from illness?"

"Hey." Liu Shi hurriedly grabbed her, turned her head and shouted inside: "Grandma, this child grew up in a women's hospital and has never endured hardship. He speaks without restraint, Please do not be angry."

"Ha, ha ha, cough, cough." The old man deep in the cave coughed violently, "You Han people are expensive, ahem, our people in the mountains, if you get sick, you will endure it, and you won't be able to endure it. I'll die in the past. Cough, hahaha."

The women doctors didn't know how to answer this, so they had to squeeze together carefully and nervously observe the surrounding indigenous warriors.

The water is boiling and bubbling.

"Doctor Cheng." Suddenly a child shouted, "Can this be eaten?"

As if everyone around was relieved.

Cheng got up and took out a pottery bowl from the banana leaves wrapped in layers: "It's divided. Line up according to age, and you are not allowed to grab it!"

There is just one bowl, all the children take turns. However, the previous one has been used up, so I have to wipe it with a clean banana leaf before passing it to the next one.

"You are so particular." The old man added, "When we were rich in the past, every household in the tribe had pottery bowls, which is not like now..."

Beginning with "our ancestors were also rich", it is often said that they can only stop in the first half of the year. Especially when the narrator is an old man, it's even more hellish mode.

According to the old man, this small tribe originally lived in the deep mountains in the middle of the South Island. However, because of the failure of the competition with the nearby tribes for territory, the family fled to the land. A group of people died when they fought, a group of people died when they crossed the sea, and after they went ashore, they were captured by the Han Chinese, and another group of people died. When they collided with the local residents in the unfamiliar mountains, it was another casualty. Later, there was an outbreak of malaria. .

There was originally a witch doctor in the clan, but he died in the beginning of the fight, so there was no way to rob the Han doctor.

Speaking of this, Mrs. Cheng became angry: "You also say that the natives keep their promises. Awen, I kindly saved you, so how did you repay me?"

Indigenous boy Awin: "…"

"I promised well at the beginning, not to tell us that we would cure malaria. The result is good, robbing people? You touch your conscience! Wang's cold and Xie's legs If you hurt me, I'll count it on your head," Cheng's teeth itch with hatred, "I will die if I spread kindness indiscriminately."

Liu hurriedly patted her on the back: "Don't say a word, it's still on someone else's territory."

Awen is scolded by Cheng's every day, her ears are calloused, and she can't get angry: "Doctor Cheng, can you stay in our tribe?"

"Huh?"

"Doctor Cheng, I will build you the kind of house you mentioned. There is a fire pit in the house. You wash your hands every day before eating. You can stay and see a doctor for us."

The adults burst into laughter. "Awen, your kid has a good idea." "Yi Cheng, what's the matter, you just stay."

Cheng seemed to realize something, and with a "Bah", she hid behind Liu.

Most of the ethnic minorities in Jiaozhou retain the tradition of matrilineal clans, and the status of women is generally higher, which is the main reason why women doctors are not abused by the opposite sex. However, this tribe, whose population has just been greatly depleted, has a very strong will to marry, especially the Han women with advanced technology.

Liu blocked Cheng. "Why did Acheng stay and why didn't you follow us down the mountain?" Mrs Liu persuaded Awen in a different way, "You can wear clean clothes and eat clean food when you go back to the women's hospital with us, and you don't need to share a pottery with others. Bowls, convenient for fire whenever possible, and literacy.”

"We are the people of the mountain." The chief old woman suddenly said, "If you leave the mountain, you will lose your roots and can only be slaughtered. Don't waste your words, we will leave here, but That was to go back to the Big Island to the south and take back our homeland."

As night falls, humans fall asleep, but the rain is still falling.

The sound of the rain concealed the sound of the Han troops approaching the cave. Raindrops fell on Twenty-Seven's steel knife, directly down the smooth blade surface without any hesitation.

"Are you sure it's here?" He asked softly in fluent Lingnan dialect.

The half-tired guide next to him shrank to the ground and nodded.

Twenty Seven narrowed his eyes, stared at the black hole, and licked his lips lightly. He followed Dalang to kill wolves, bears, and traitors. What Dalang said, the master is too kind, and they will become the master's knife to protect her Tao from being defiled by dirty people.

Qin Liu sat on a branch, holding a leaf to imitate a bird's call: one long, two short, another long, and two short. It was a bit risky for him to do this on a winter night, but fortunately, a figure dressed in white appeared directly at the entrance of the cave. It was Mrs. Liu.

From a distance, she can be seen gesturing, three in her left hand and seven in her right. The left arm kept drawing circles in the air.

Twenty Seven and Qin Six jumped at the same time.

"The other party is not alert, come on."

No wonder the master said that cryptography is a good thing.

Three hundred Han Chinese armed with iron weapons fought against thirty-seven indigenous armed forces with old, weak, sick and disabled.

As soon as Awen was awakened by the sound of footsteps, he picked up the wooden spear and jumped up, when he was hit **** the ground, and a severe pain of dislocation came from his left shoulder. "Hey, a half-old brat." He heard someone say, "It's cheaper for you, I have always been soft-hearted towards children when I met me." Immediately afterwards, there was a more severe pain in his right shoulder. As soon as Awen's eyes darkened, he fainted in pain.

Before he lost consciousness, he smelled blood.

It was not until the spring breeze brought warmth that Awen knew that the person who spoke was Qin Liu, the most unpredictable of the three giants of Shen and Hong Kong.

"Lang Qin, are you really planning to go to Guzhuya County?" Shi Yi walked over from the bow of the boat, "Why is this so hard? Cangwu, where my family is located, still has a lot of fertile fields that are sold for sale. Just some of you. I don’t like Cangwu, Panyu is the most prosperous in Jiaozhou…”

Awen watched them talk in Mandarin with half curiosity and half fear, but he could only understand a few words.

Qin Liupo reluctantly handed over his hands: "We are always grateful for the kindness of your family. But the master once said that it is very difficult for such friendship to last long if we rely on others unilaterally. We look forward to it. If you can watch and help each other with your lord, you must get rid of the blue thread today."

To help, it is certainly not difficult to spread branches and leaves in Lingnan. It is unwise to help Han Xin with a meal when he is down. I sigh for this."

Qin Liu smiled: "Shi's helped us find Master Liu and sailed to take us to the island, which is a great favor in itself. When the first season of rice is ripe this summer, please ask Come to the island for dinner. Please don't reject our wishes at that time."

It is a courtesy to each other, and the remnants of the port on the South Island can be seen from a distance.

The port has been abandoned for some time, and underwater safety cannot be guaranteed. The large ship of the Shi family did not dare to dock, and only put down a small raft and transported it until the afternoon, when all the people and materials were delivered.

Fortunately, the craftsmen Ai, Yan Wen and others have already recruited the Han remnants on the South Island first, and determined the location of the camp in the original Zhuya County, which exempted the new immigrants from The quandary of an overnight stay at the port.

Qin Liu stayed at the end, said goodbye to Shi Yi, and then patted Awen on the back to signal him to get up: "Let's go, I have raised you with delicious food for a month, except for memorizing the house rules. The cleaning didn't force you to work. Why do you look like you're sloppy?"

The more he spoke kindly, the more Awen's shoulders ache. "well."

"You know I take good care of you. If you do well, I'll apply for a house for you to live with your injured uncle."

"Okay..."

Awen's slack look made Qin Liu squinted: "What is the second rule of the house?"

"Uh, anyone who betrays, no matter the reason, zero tolerance."

The corner of Qin Liu's mouth curled up: "I like a good boy like Awen the most."

The author has something to say: Qin Liu has always been a black man. When the orphans first arrived in Qiao County, some people wanted to run, Qin Liu deliberately encouraged them to run, and then those people directly GG.
