(Ask for recommendation, ask for collection)

No matter how dramatic the process was, at least Richie was able to settle here for the time being, which gave him a chance to live.

In addition, in this era, everything here makes Li Qi full of curiosity, and he is now eager to know more information.

And Rong is undoubtedly a good object for clichés.

Although Rong speaks a little dullly, if you ask him, he will say a word, if you don't ask, he won't say more, but he is more honest, not like the young man in front of him, full of ghost ideas.

From his mouth, Li Qi learned some information about Blackstone Valley.

The old woman's name was Po Yi, and she was the leader of the Black Rock Valley, and the young man's name was Nong, and she was the grandson of Po Yi, and his mother had died a few years earlier, and as for his father, Rong replied that he did not know. In terms of salutation, there is only one honorific title, which is Mu, which is specially used to call one's mother, and grandmother does not have an honorific title.

And that Taba is actually the legendary witch, who is responsible for dealing with the heavens, but there is no such thing as a witch at present, and Rong describes Taba as the smartest person in Blackstone Valley.

Li Qi also learned from Rong's mouth that some of the basic systems of the Black Rock Valley are really absolute democracy, but all major matters must be decided by the votes of all adults, men also have the right to vote, and they can also use voting to remove the leader, but Taba has a veto power, because Taba has a background from God, at this time human beings are still in the stage of ignorance, and this day cannot be disobeyed, as for small things, it can be decided by Po Yi and several older women, and everyone's division of labor is decided by Po Yi and them.

In addition, it is the communist system, collective production, and equal distribution, but it does not mean that the set of equipment worn by Li Qi also has to be taken out, but it is only collectively produced, that is, it belongs to the collective, but if this animal skin is distributed to you, it belongs to the private, not the collective, only after you die, it will be owned by the collective, and it cannot be passed on to future generations, Li Qi's clothes are not from collective production.

But this is not to say that their system is very advanced, but because they are very backward in productivity.

"Melt! Melt! ”

The two were chatting when they heard a shout.

Li Qi looked for prestige, only to see a woman pointing to the sky.

Before Li Qi looked up, he heard Rong said anxiously: "Slow! ”

"What's slow?"

Richie didn't react at all.

But as soon as he spoke, Rong jumped down, and when he landed, it was like a boulder falling, Li Qi felt a little shocked, and he couldn't help but feel sympathy for the land of this era.

"It's going to get dark, and we're going to have to make a fire." Rong suddenly remembered that he was not alone in Blackstone Valley now, so he turned back to Li Qi and said, looking a little anxious.

"Make a fire?"

Li Qi was stunned for a moment, thinking, is it for dinner? It's my first day on the job, so I'm going to have to make a good show. Hurriedly said: "Wait for me." ”

Saying that, he also wanted to jump down, but when he looked at this height, it was clear that he couldn't get along with himself!

Rong didn't react, he took two steps, suddenly looked left and right, and found that there was no one on the side, "Li Qi?" When he looked back, he saw Li Qi sticking to the stone wall like a gecko, slowly squirming, he suddenly wondered, walked over, looked at Li Qi blankly, and said, "What are you doing?" ”

Li Qi looked down and said, "I... I guess it's whereabouts. ”

Rong said: "Why don't you jump down?" ”

He's not a talkative person, but he really doesn't understand why Richie is like this, because they're all straight up.

Richie's urge to squirt blood is gone, and I want to be as chic as you, but the problem is that if I jump like this, I will break my bones. But he couldn't say that he was weaker than a weak chicken, so he could only explain: "That's right, I was chased by wild beasts all day, and I didn't eat anything, and my body was weak. ”

While speaking, Li Qi also jumped down, and let out a soft breath, his face still looked a little embarrassed.

Rong didn't ask much, and urged: "Hurry up!" Come on! ”

It's just dinner, so you can't rush it! Li Qi couldn't help but feel a little puzzled when he saw Rong's anxious expression, but he didn't have time to ask more, because he had to trot to keep up with Rong's footsteps.

When I came to the east side of Shishan, I saw that there was a protruding stone wall here, which was very long, like an eaves, and it was really a miraculous workmanship. Under the stone wall was piled up with firewood, either for fetish, or some branches that had been picked up, tied with rattan, and I saw two or three young men carrying the firewood to the door of the stone cave.

Wow! Can I carry this? Seeing that the bundle of firewood might not be able to be held with both hands, Li Qi couldn't help but feel a little depressed, and asked in a low voice: "We two little fire experts, do we still want to do this?" ”

Rong seemed anxious and didn't hear it, grabbed a bundle of firewood and threw it back, "And then." ”

Bang!

"Oops!"

I heard a scream!

Rong looked back and found that Li Qi was gone, and when he looked down again, he saw that Li Qi was pressed by a bundle of firewood, and his legs were slightly bounced, so he walked over, squatted down, looked at Li Qi, and said curiously: "What are you doing?" ”

"Big brother! I said I'm very weak now, and if you still throw it like this, can I take it? ”

Li Qi was about to cry, such a big bundle of firewood was thrown over, how did you let him take it, and the speed was also fast, he didn't dodge, he was overwhelmed.

After a while, I saw Rong carrying a bundle of firewood and a large bundle of firewood in the other hand, running in front, while Li Qi behind him was holding his chest, staggering, looking at Rong in front of him with resentment, thinking, if I want to live longer, I have to take their strength and speed into account when I think about anything in the future!

Rong had no time to care about Li Qi's complaints, so he hurried to the cave, pulled the rattan directly, and threw the firewood into a large circular earth pit in front of the cave.

"Wait."

Li Qi, who rushed over from behind, said with a puzzled expression: "You don't need such a big fire pit to barbecue, how much meat do you have to barbecue?" And then there's the ..... of the heat problem. ”

"Night is coming, and a fire must be lit at once." Rong interrupted him, and there was a hint of nervousness in his voice.

"It's not a barbecue! Then I'm relieved. ”

Li Qi nodded, and suddenly found that the very violent little children in front of him were all shrunk at the entrance of the cave, trembling, thinking, it's just that it's dark, are you like this, besides, you are so awesome, I'm not afraid of a weak chicken. I looked up at the sky again, and found that it was still very bright, and there was no difference from before, but I didn't find the sun, and I couldn't tell if it was sunset, so I asked cautiously: "Inside... Even if it was dark, it wasn't a matter of an instant, and now that it's still so bright, we still have enough time to make a fire, so there's no need to be so nervous. ”

As soon as he finished speaking, he suddenly felt that the distance suddenly darkened, and when he looked up, he saw a darkness in the distance slowly moving over.

"I'll go! What the hell is this? ”

Li Qi was stunned for a while, and when he looked up again, the whole sky had already darkened, although it was not completely dark, but the day seemed to be really dark in an instant.

This kind of computer-scanned darkness made him stunned, until a flash of fire came, he woke up, looked down, and saw that there was already fire in the fire pit, and the spark was burning in the prairie fire.

Why? Why was it so strange in the way it was dark in primitive times? Li Qi's heart became more and more confused, if the strength and speed of primitive people were stronger than him, he would still be able to try to understand, but the sky was also darkened much faster than the later generations, which he couldn't understand, and his mind was trying to search for some natural information about the primitive era, but... It's a blank slate.

After a while, a fire finally broke out in the fire pit, and it was completely dark.

The women brought the children back to the cave, and Richie was called in by Taba because when it was time for dinner to be distributed, only four young men were left outside to take care of the fire pit.

There was also a fire in the cave, far less big than the ones outside, but enough to illuminate the inside of the cave.

Everyone sat on the floor around the fire, and they seemed to really like the light, but at the same time they were very afraid of the night, and the little children looked at the fire with joy in their eyes.

Several women shuttled through the room, handing out food to everyone.

Richie also gets his dinner, wrapped in a leaf, with three green fruits, a large pink fruit, and a few rods that resemble rhizomes.

This was a bit of a surprise to Richie, who thought that he must have eaten meat tonight, after all, they had just eaten offal in front of them, and they were still thinking about how to make dinner, but he didn't ask much, because the people here were still a little wary of him.

Soon the cave was filled with the sound of chewing.

Li Qi swept it away, saw that everyone was eating very happily, and looked down at the food in his hand, although the color was very bright, but none of them were known to him, and he couldn't help but think in his heart, has this thing been washed? They can't wash their hands? Will I have diarrhea after eating? In case you have diarrhea... Yes! There should be no toilets here, I don't even know how they go to the toilet, and it's so dark ...... outside.

After thinking about it, he still decided not to eat it first, and quietly wrapped the food and held it in his arms.

The rest of the people quickly wiped out their own dinner.

"Taba, tell a story, tell a story."

Suddenly, a child shouted.

"Tell a story."

"Tell a story."

The rest of the children immediately started shouting, and everyone looked very excited.

This time, Li Qi could understand their excitement, after all, they were still too young to have children, and storytelling was probably their only entertainment at night, and he also wanted to learn something about this era from the story.

Under the excited shouts of the child, the old man Taba stood up and came to the stone wall painted with murals, not to mention, the fire shone on his face, inexplicably exuding a wise man's temperament.

"Good, good! Let me tell you a story. ”

Taba let out his trademark "hehe" laugh again, scratching his long, fluffy, withered hair, and said, "I'm going to tell you a story about the night tonight." He tapped his head with a deadwood cane, and after a few moments, he wiped a layer of charcoal ash from the ground with his fingers, and said, "A long, long time ago, I was as young as you, and then... Hehe... Rongdu has not yet been born, we can only rely on God to give us fire, remember that there is a dark night ....... ”

As soon as he spoke of the night, the little kid's eyes immediately revealed a look of horror.

Then the old man Taba continued: "We did not keep the fire, but only blocked the entrance of the cave with large stones to prevent the beasts from attacking us. And while we were asleep, there was a sudden sound of 'huh' outside the cave, and the adults told us that it was a six-legged beast that was tempting the child, and told us not to go out, but there was a child named Tse, who was very curious, because he had never seen a six-legged beast, so he secretly got out of the crack in the stone. ”

As he spoke, he drew on the stone wall.

Oh... It turns out that this is how the mural came about. Li Qi looked closely at his drawing, it was so rudimentary, the only thing that could be seen was that the thing had six legs, and a pair of front feet were raised like hands. I thought, what kind of beast is this? Alas... I really regret that I didn't learn more about primitive society.

"He... What about him? ”

A little chubby boy said with a tense face.

Li Qi also looked at Taba curiously, is this story, there should be a twist here, otherwise, how to survive this long night.

"Eaten by the Six-legged Beast!"

Taba said suddenly.

The little children were frightened, and a few of them were still cowering in their mother's arms.

"That's it! All right! That's the story! Taba laughed again.

Is that the end of it? Li Qi was immediately stupid, this ending is really ..... It was so unexpected to him, it was really full of dry goods.

I also heard some women telling their children, "Don't go out in the dark, be careful of being eaten by the six-legged beast." ”

Is this storytelling, or brainwashing? Li Qi only felt that the taste had changed, and the only information he got from this story was the six-legged beast, but who knows if this was made up by Taba to scare the child, of course, it could also be a primitive animal that he didn't know at all. Then he saw that the women were already soothing their children to sleep, but the naughty little children did not listen at all, and jumped up and down in the hole, and made a mess, which gave him some headaches.

So Li Qi quietly left the crowd and went outside the cave.

The four young men gathered around the fire outside the cave, they should be in charge of keeping vigil, and when they saw Li Qi coming out, there was still a hint of vigilance in their eyes, after all, the night made their sense of security greatly reduced, and Li Qi, a stranger, naturally made them more guarded.

Li Qi, who originally wanted to be close, couldn't help but smile when he saw their expressions and said, "I'm going to pee." ”

"Don't go too far." One said.

Li Qi was shocked and thought to himself, it turns out that they are also called peeing! Interesting! Interesting!

If you don't go too far, you don't need to ask to know that this nature is a toilet, and you can defecate anywhere you want.

In fact, even if they didn't tell him, Li Qi didn't dare to go too far, but went to the big tree in front of the cave, and was about to open the zipper, when he suddenly heard someone whispering behind the tree, "It's delicious!" It's delicious! Well... I'll have to let Li Qi roast the barbecue tomorrow. ”

Li Qi twitched his nose, what kind of smell this is, it seems to be quite familiar. Suddenly, his eyes widened, and he poked his head out, and by the faint light of the fire coming from the cave, he faintly saw a young man sitting with his back against a tree, eating something.

It's none other than --- Nong, the grandson of Po Yi.

Li Qi saw that he seemed to be holding a lot of food in his hands, and thought to himself, no wonder this kid is so diligent during the day, it turns out that he is fishing in troubled waters! Say up, "Hey! Are you breaking the rules? ”

"Ahh

The farmer was eating and was so frightened by Li Qi's coldness that he couldn't help screaming.

"What's the matter?"

A night watchman by the fire asked nervously.

I saw Nong's pure, bright black eyes revealing a nervous look.

Li Qi smiled and replied, "It's okay, I accidentally spilled urine on Nong's head." ”

Nong immediately shouted, "Don't you see me sitting here?" ”

Hey! This kid reacts pretty fast! Li Qi gave two appreciative glances, but said, "It's so dark, where can I see it." ”

And there were two laughs from the side of the fire.

When Nong heard this, he let out a sigh of relief, suddenly glared at Li Qi again, and then turned around and left.

Li Qi's eyes rolled, and he thought, Rong is such a dull person, although he is easy to find out the news, but he is not easy to fool, and others are wary of me, but this young man is more greedy, and clever, he should be considered an alternative in Blackstone Valley, it just so happens that I need someone to help me, so let's break through from him first. Li Qi suddenly said to himself: "Those fruits from Fang Cai are really not delicious at all, but fortunately I also brought some delicious ones with me." ”

Nong immediately put on an emergency brake.
