Chapter 404: Sprouting Seedlings (2)
“¥@$4!”
When the twilight gradually fell, in the cave of the Green Tribe, after the unfathomable narration of the leader of the Green Tribe, the people of the Green Tribe, who heard that there would be salt to eat soon, couldn't help but let out an exclamation and cheer.
They were excited, even worshipped, by the cleverness of their tribal leaders.
Seeing everyone's reaction like this, calmly accepting many words of praise and reverence, the leader of the Green Tribe became proud.
He was also complacent about his tactful approach.
I can always think of such a good way to solve the problem, it is really rare and admirable!
That night, after receiving a guarantee from the leader that it would not take long to get the salt back, most of the people of the Green Tribe slept peacefully.
There are also some who can't sleep after tossing and turning, such as the leader of the Green Tribe.
It's not that I'm worried about anything, but I'm excited about the salt I'm about to have.
As soon as it was dawn the next day, the leader of the Green Tribe led the tribesmen who had also gotten up early in the morning out of the cave and headed for the place where the wild grass grew near the tribe.
“##4¥%!”
In the early morning of summer, it is easy to get a little foggy.
When these thin mists meet the leaves of the plants, they slowly gather into tiny drops of dew, and then follow the blades of grass that grow diagonally upwards all the way to the place where the leaves and stems of the plants meet, and when they overflow, they flow down the stems, soaking a small patch of land and wetting the broken roots.
At this time, it was far from the moment when the sun came out, and when the leader of the green tribe acted like this yesterday, the sun was not very strong, so these seedlings that had been devastated by the 'seedling planting' were still very supportive, and they did not look weak.
During this time, the leader of the Green Tribe was not the only one who often came to see the weeds, but now everyone came to take a look and found that as the leader said, these weeds had grown so tall all at once.
The crowd couldn't help but cheer and cast reverent glances at the leader again.
The leader of the Green Tribe accepted this as a matter of course, stayed here for a while, began to lead the people back to the cave, and after using the food, left the cave with the strong, hunter-hunter part.
The rest, as in the past, dug up some wild vegetables around the tribe, or gathered some wild fruits to eat.
The sun came out of the other side of the mountain, and soon showed its due power, and it didn't take long for the air, which had been cool, to become hot and dry.
A primitive woman, who looked a little thin, came back from the outside with some freshly dug and commonly eaten wild vegetables wrapped in animal skins, and she walked with less vigor than before, and through the mouths of the wiser people of the tribe, she understood that it was because she had not eaten salt.
The exchange of wild grass for salt affects the hearts of everyone in the Green Tribe, and this female primitive is no exception.
She didn't have to go back to the cave to go past the spikes of weeds, but she went around it anyway.
Even though she knew that even after the touch of the leader's magical hands, these weeds would not be able to produce ears of grass so quickly, but she still couldn't help but want to take a look.
“%3#@?”
After the female primitive person with a good mood came here, her eyes swept away, and she was immediately stunned.
When I came to see it with the leader in the morning, the weeds that were still growing very energetically were actually depressed and slumped, looking half-dead.
The primitive woman looked at the big sun in the sky, and then at the other grasses that grew very energetically around the weeds, and stood here in a daze for a while, and finally couldn't help but shout loudly, her voice was panicked......
The sun was setting in the west, and it seemed that it was a little hot and dry, and the leader of the green tribe returned with the people who were hunting, and the harvest was not big, and it was only enough to eat for a day.
But there was no discouragement on the part of the people, for it would not be long before they could exchange the ears of weeds for salt.
It doesn't cost anything extra to eat, which makes them feel at ease.
“¥%¥?”
The leader of the green tribe, who was walking in the front, looked at the scene in front of him, and couldn't help but be a little stunned and vigilant.
There was still a certain distance from the tribe's cave, and in the past, the people who stayed behind in the tribe would not come here to meet them, but now they appeared.
Looking at the people who seemed to be running towards them in a hurry, he had a sense of foreboding.
Isn't the tribe attacked by some beast? Or are they from other tribes?
Thinking so in his heart, he tightened his grip on the weapon in his hand, and with the other tribesmen who also found that something was wrong and clenched their weapons to take precautions, he quickened his pace and headed towards the comer.
“%#%5!”
At a distance, he asked what had happened.
And those who seemed anxious did not answer, but kept running towards them, which made the leader of the green tribe even more bottomless.
“¥*&%……?”
The leader of the Green Tribe, who had never heard about the incident, was stunned in place and asked in disbelief.
After a moment's stay here, he pushed aside the man in front of him and ran wildly towards the place where the weeds grew.
Some of the Green Tribe members who had roughly understood what was going on had already followed the leader's footsteps and ran away, while others were here in a daze.
What nonsense are the people left behind, the weeds are still growing well when they look at them in the morning......
“¥%*@#……”
The leader of the Green Tribe said weakly without knowing what it meant.
Looking at the almost dead weed, which was extremely important to their tribe, his eyes were a little dilated, and he only felt a little dizzy.
These weeds are so good, why do they die?
After muttering to himself for a while, he finally sat down on the ground.
The people of the other green tribes who followed him also looked extremely uneasy and helpless.
Tonight, the cave where the Green Tribe lived was unusually quiet, and an indescribably oppressive atmosphere permeated the cavern, making it almost impossible to breathe compared to the relaxed pleasure of the previous night.
From hopeful to hopeless, it's just a matter of one day.
The leader of the Green Tribe once again lost sleep, but the mood between the two was 108,000 miles away......
“¥#¥……”
The Green Tribe squatted on the ground with some weakness, holding his head in his hands, looking extremely uncomfortable.
After squatting like this for a while, he finally stood up and gave the order to the tribesmen to prepare food and hides and go to the rich tribe in exchange for salt.
Because of the previous trade, most of them had ears of wild grass on top of them, so there were still a lot of skins left in his tribe.
However, judging from the fact that salt is more valuable than pottery, the salt they brought in exchange for animal skins this time could not last long......
