Chapter 9 Autumn is a season for storing food.

“%#”

Wu pointed at himself, and then said to Han Cheng.

Although Han Cheng couldn't speak, Wu could tell from his eyes that Han Cheng was indeed seriously studying what he taught.

This made the elderly Wu very happy.

It is precisely because of this that he will be so tireless in teaching Han Cheng.

“%#”

He pointed to himself and said it again.

“%#”

Han Cheng blinked, didn't this mean 'me'?

Wu, who was a good teacher, taught Han Cheng for a while, so he didn't say more, and then picked up his pen made of stone, and carved on the stone tablet what he had not yet written.

After about an hour, someone who had been out came back.

The leader was Senior Brother Sha, who led with two men and five women, each of whom was holding or carrying an animal skin package, which contained large and small fruits.

They poured it out where it had been placed, and then went out again.

Thinking of the colorful scene he had seen on the way back to the cave the day before yesterday, Han Cheng understood what they were doing now.

Autumn is here, it's harvest season, and it's also a season of hard work to store food.

From what he had seen and heard in the past two days, Han Cheng had already learned that this unknown tribe was still in the stage of hunting and gathering, and it was still far, far away from slash-and-burn cultivation.

In this case, the collection of wild fruits has become their most important means of storage.

After all, the fruit has a long shelf life and is shelf-stable.

As for the meat, it tastes good, but when there is no salt, the time it can be stored is really ......

This is also the reason why after yesterday there was enough meat for the tribe to eat for two days, today all the laborers of the tribe have gone out to pick wild fruits.

It can be seen that there should be a lot of fruit outside, and basically every hour, about half of the people will come back with the fruit in their hands......

The days passed like this as calm as water, and Han Cheng's life was to stand here as a sculpture, watching the activities of the people in this tribe, and eating the special meat soup made by Wu for two meals a day.

Most of the time, it's mashed roast meat and mushy liver.

However, one time it was a sheep's kidney.

After eating this lamb kidney, Han Cheng was very sad.

It's not that the kidneys taste bad, but that after he ate a whole pure wild lamb kidney, he still didn't feel a little bit......

Damn, this time it's a real waste, and the source of happiness is gone......

Of course, after putting this worry aside, Han Cheng is still quite satisfied with his current life.

After eating every day, learn some of their language from the witch, and the rest of the time can be used to be in a daze.

The work of storing food was still going on, and the women of the tribe were the main hands of fruit picking.

If there is enough prey to meet the needs of the tribe for two days or more, the elder brother will join the men in picking the fruit.

As they worked hard, more and more fruit was stored in the cave, and a large pile had been piled up in the place where the fruit was stored.

Looking at this ever-growing pile of fruits, people, including Han Cheng, felt steady.

Having food in your hands and not panicking in your heart has always been a wise saying before the problem of hunger and satiety is solved.

Han Cheng's body is very itchy, this itching has started a few days ago, but it is not as serious as today.

He wanted to scratch, but of course the result was devastating, he couldn't move, he couldn't speak, he could only endure the torture like scratching his heart and scratching his liver without saying a word.

But when he found out that he could control the slightest movement of one hand, the itch was immediately forgotten by his ecstatic.

is even secretly cheering up, making this itch more intense.

Yesterday, the senior brother returned with a hunting team again, and the prey he caught was enough for the entire tribe to eat for three days!

So today, after breakfast, he also took the hunting members and the women of the tribe to pick together.

As for Han Cheng, he was ecstatic and trying to control all parts of his body to see where he could move.

After working hard for a long time, a pain with a tearing touch came from Han Cheng's face, and after such a feeling, Han Cheng was pleasantly surprised to find that his mouth could be opened wider and closed!

After being convinced that he would not become a sculptor in the future, Han Cheng suppressed the urge to open his mouth wide now to be completely relieved.

According to past experience, he is now the kind of injured person, and if he forcibly opens his mouth to tear the scorched shell on his face, he will definitely have a scar on his face.

He doesn't really care about his appearance, but he doesn't want to leave a scar on it, after all, this is something used to see people.

His mouth could open and close a little, but he still couldn't make a sound, and Han Cheng always felt that something was stuck in his throat.

While he felt the changes in his body with joy and curiosity, the man who had gone out to pick fruit returned.

They've been back twice today, and it's not unusual.

However, when he found out that everyone had returned, Han Chengcheng was a little puzzled.

It's still early, at most just after noon, and it stands to reason that at this time, not all the people who went out to pick will come back.

The situation is not simple.

It's not just because the senior brother and they all came back early, but also because the people who came back didn't carry big bags of fruits as before.

Not only that, but the six people, including Senior Brother, Second Senior Brother, and Senior Brother Sha, had varying degrees of damage.

Especially the second senior brother with a big belly, there are several bruises on his big belly.

But fortunately, there are no fewer people who went out, and they all came back, and there was no attrition.

The atmosphere of the whole team seemed very low and depressing, and the little primitives who had originally cheered and ran out to greet them also became quiet after seeing this scene and feeling the atmosphere, and looked at their parents and brothers at a loss.

The witch, who had also noticed something unusual, walked out of the depths of the cave and asked aloud with a gesture.

The senior brother lowered his head in shame and did not say anything for a while.

Wu was indeed a wise man, so he didn't ask any more questions, and then asked everyone to go back to the cave first, and asked people to move a few heavy stone slabs at the entrance of the cave, ready to seal the hole.

The senior brother, who was limping away, shook his head, pointed out of the cave, and stopped Wu's order, signaling that there was no need to do this, and that things had not yet come to this point.

Wu agreed, and instead of speaking, he began to examine the injured people.
