Original War

Early the next morning, before the sun came out, all the children in the cave woke up. For a few nights, they probably thought about it and didn't sleep well, and their eye circles were dark.

Moore was still confused when he was awakened. This was something he hadn't encountered in the cave before. Yesterday, I practiced the knife and killed a few Yeyans. There were also a few more wounds on the arms, of different depths, and herbs had been wiped.

Doubts turned to doubts, Moore stood up, carrying a knife, waiting for the next thing, he found that the other children in the cave were all five together, holding straw ropes and pieces of black objects, squeezing in the entrance of the cave not knowing they were discussing What, look at Shao Xuan expectantly from time to time.

"The sun is out! Today's weather must be good, we can go fishing." A child looked at the sun in the sky and said.

"But yesterday was also such a good weather. Isn't it impossible to fish? Will today be the same as yesterday?" Another child poured cold water.

Most of the children in the cave couldn't hear such unlucky words, and all glared at the child who just said "the same as yesterday."

No matter if I can fish today, I still have to eat breakfast, otherwise I won’t have the energy to work. Shao Xuan has eaten something every morning since he started to earn money. At first, there were children who were reluctant to eat, but when he was fishing, he felt weak and the efficiency was not as good as others. The next day, he set up like Shao Xuan. Stone pot, no way, no energy if you don't eat, you can't work if you don't have energy, and if you can't work, it means that there are fewer prey than others, and you will be hungry. This is a vicious circle.

Eat and drink enough, refreshed.

There shouldn't be any major problems with Moore's actions, and Shao Xuan called him to go fishing with him. Yesterday, the Yeyans killed by Moore contributed to the group for breakfast, and the attitude of others in the group towards Moore has also softened a lot.

All the people in the cave left without being guarded. The things in the cave were not afraid of being stolen. Shao Xuan took the straw ropes and the black pieces that could float on the water. As for the fish, the people of the tribe would not come to steal the children in the cave. The food, otherwise it will be severely punished and rejected by the entire tribe, so no one will come to get the fish even if they put the fish outside to dry. In addition to these, there is nothing in the cave that can attract people from the tribe. There is no need to send someone to guard, Caesar is taken by Shao Xuan.

The river surface today is also very calm, but it is not as quiet as yesterday. Seeing the flashing waves on the water surface, Shao Xuan feels a little peaceful. Call Stutter and Tu to tie the straw rope to the stone worm and bring it over, try to throw a stone worm first.

Behind Shao Xuan stood twenty or so children, staring at the stone worm thrown into the water without blinking, and staring nervously at the black block floating on the water without seeing the stone worm.

"A Xuan, how's it going?"

"Should be okay?"

"Has the fish come back?"

The unbearable person asked in a low voice.

Shao Xuan stared at the water. He didn't "see" those aquatic creatures with tentacles today, and the tremor of the black block returned to the previous magnitude. It was underwater stone insects struggling.

"I shouldn't ask..." Before Shao Xuan's words were finished, he was interrupted by the situation on the water.

The black block that had originally floated on the water suddenly sank, and the rope felt a familiar pulling sensation. Shao Xuan was overjoyed, and they stammered tightly with the straw rope in his hand, and quickly pulled back.

"There are fish!"

"It's a fish!!"

"The fish is back!!"

Seeing this, the other children all jumped happily on the spot. When the familiar hideous face was completely exposed in the water, the twenty-something children were finally completely relieved.

It was only a day after I missed it so much. The straw rope in his hand was already unbearable. After Shao Xuan signaled, the boys in groups of five began to skillfully catch fish.

"Moore, you go with them, Tu you tell him what to pay attention to, I took Caesar to dig stone insects, the ones I just dug are far from enough. Remember, don’t go into the water, don’t fight, there is that The fight time is better than pulling a few more fish, hurry up, and the winter will come within a few days. If you find something wrong, go find the soldiers guarding there." Shao Xuan said to other people standing on the river bank.

In fact, without Shao Xuan's request, these children cherish today’s opportunity after yesterday’s events. None of them knows whether the fish will leave again tomorrow. Therefore, it is better to catch more fish. Who has the leisure to fight? Ah?

When the children who came out of the cave were busy pulling fish, some people living in the foothills also came here to catch fish with them.

It’s a common occurrence recently that the guard soldiers don’t run to warn nervously when they see someone approaching the water as they did before. Now they just sit not far away and watch them. Inform in time and so on.

I have to say that these fishes really solve the urgent needs of some people. Several families near the foot of the mountain were injured when they went out hunting. They could not participate in the last time before the winter. If they did not go out to hunt, there would be less food. Winter is difficult and the family members are also Anxious, and now, they are much easier. Who would have thought that these guys in the water could be such a good hunter? Even the old, weak, sick and disabled in the tribe can come to help.

After experiencing these things, Shao Xuan is also well known by people near the foot of the mountain. Everyone remembers that there was a child who wandered around with a wolf every day. Now because of the fish, he has to trade with Shao Xuan for the kind that can float on the water. The black block finally remembered Shao Xuan's name. I heard that Shao Xuan was going to change animal skins. It didn't matter whether the old or the new one. They cleaned out the animal skins that were not needed at home and rushed to exchange them with Shao Xuan.

When Shao Xuan came to the gravel ground, there were already seven or eight people there. When he saw Shao Xuan and these people, he said hello to Shao Xuan. Hearing that Shao Xuan said that he could pull fish by the river today, he stared at the ground one by one. More eager, I can’t wait to quickly copy the nest of underground stone insects and use it to lure fish by the river.

Recently, the stone insects in the gravel ground were caught by the seedlings, and they were digged up by the crowds after they broke the soil and nodded. They cut half of their lives to escape, otherwise they could only be pulled out from the ground by people. . In the past, even if they climbed out of the ground and wriggled in front of people, no one would take a second look, but now, let alone outcrops, even if the gravel on the ground moves a little, someone will dig in to see if there are stone bugs underneath. , Rip it out when you see it.However, compared to Caesar, these people are much less efficient. The stone worm digger on the gravel saw Caesar sniffing around and digging out one, his eyes hot.

This wolf nose is really awful!

Some people are also thinking about weaving a big net with straw ropes to catch fish, but the facts prove that this trick is not working well. One net down can indeed catch a lot. But before the net is pulled up, the net is scrambling by those fishes. It was bitten, and when the net was retrieved, there was no fish in the bitten net. As a last resort, everyone still uses this troublesome method, one by one.

In the afternoon, the children fishing by the river were summoned by Shao Xuan and returned to the cave to eat the food divided by the tribe. They did not want to continue to nest in the cave and weave straw ropes. Yesterday, we braided straw ropes for a whole day. There is still some time, they think about going to the river to catch for a while.

Shao Xuan didn't object either, but he didn't go with him in the afternoon. Stone insects had caught a lot in the morning, and they were assigned to five groups, enough for them.

Looking at the moon last night, winter is coming soon. They have to catch more fish before winter comes. Once winter comes, the outdoor temperature drops sharply, and the river near the river bank will freeze. At that time, there is no awakening totem power. Basically, people don't go out of the house, they can't bear the wind and snow, and they don't have thick fur sweaters, so they can easily freeze to death when they go out.

Shao Xuan did not go to the river with the children, but took two fish out of the cave. Shao Xuan pulled one and let Caesar drag one. He also carried an animal skin bag. The bag contained the slightly better stone that Shao Xuan had picked up at the training site some time ago, because more and more people were digging stone insects on the gravel ground, Shao Xuan So he moved the stones, and now the cave is different, and the boys who put the stones beside them don't dare to grab them.

Every time he picks up a good stone embryo that can be used to make tools, Shao Xuan will exchange food with the stone tool master, and the person who chooses to exchange is also fixed. At the beginning, Shao Xuan observed a few stone tool masters near the foot of the mountain. Finally selected.

The stone tool master was named Ke. I heard that the hunting team was responsible for setting traps. He just lost a leg during a hunt and quit the hunting team to become a stone tool near the foot of the mountain. He usually helped people make stone tools. To make ends meet.

Shao Xuan took the fish to a wooden house. Many houses around had no doors. They were only covered by thick leather curtains or grass curtains woven by plant vines. Shao Xuan could hear the sound of grinding stone tools inside, and shouted "Uncle Ke".

The people inside did not respond, but the leather curtain that was covering it shook a bit. This is actually telling you that the owner agreed to go in. If Shao Xuan goes directly to lift the curtain without permission, it will not be able to lift it. Many things here look simple, but they are actually more complicated than the nearby residents' houses. The curtains of other people's houses can be lifted directly. Enter, the unfortunate one must be you.

Even if one leg is missing, in any case, the hunting team was responsible for setting traps, and the necessary technology is still there.
