Chapter 3: After waking up

[The words in the text are all in a modern way, such as "eat", which can be said to be "eat", "eat", etc.]

Not long after Su Yan woke up, the others also woke up one after another because of the sunlight shining into the cave.

Resting at the beginning of the day and working at sunrise is the normal habit of primitive people.

Some people sat on the weeds in a daze like Su Yan, while others stood up and walked directly to the outside of the cave, moving their bodies in the open space outside the cave, and a few little ones who woke up gathered together to play around.

Su Yan's nominal sister Xiaohua and sister Xiaoyue sat opposite each other, two pairs of little hands coming and going, playing happily.

Next to the three, the adoptive mother sat against the wall, looking at the three with soft eyes.

The leader awoke, put his ornate feather "crown" back on his head, got up, and walked to the clearing in the middle of the cave where food was placed.

"You, you, you, you, come here." The leader pointed to a few people in the cave.

The four adult males who were pointed out immediately got up and walked over after hearing the leader's order, and without the leader's further order, the four of them picked up the food placed on the ground and walked towards the campfire that was burning outside the cave.

The discovery and use of fire is of great significance to the development of human beings and society, human beings have understood and mastered fire, enhanced their ability to fight against cold climates, fire can be used to barbecue food, can be used to hunt and defend against wild animals, can be used to illuminate, dry damp objects, and turn ice into drinking water.

It can be said that because humans have learned to use fire, the average life expectancy of human beings has increased by at least ten years.

Now all the people of the snake tribe have to do is to use fire to turn raw food into mature food.

Move the fish to the side of the campfire, and then use a wooden stick the thickness of a finger to poke into the body of the fish from the mouth of the fish, and the wooden stick is inserted diagonally into the bonfire, twisting the wooden stick from time to time to wait for the fish to be cooked.

In addition to the fish, there is also a little bit of leftover roast meat from last night, and after the night has passed, the roast meat has already been cold, and it is put back on the wooden stick and put into the bonfire for barbecue.

Smelling the smell of food, people who were already hungry gathered around the bonfire, Su Yan was also pulled closer to the bonfire by Sister Xiaohua Xiaoyue, and her adoptive mother stuck behind the three of them, not leaving an inch.

Around the campfire, children and adults stared straight at the food, licking the corners of their mouths twice from time to time, and their stomachs were already "cooing" with hunger.

Not long after, the roasted beast meat was first taken out of the campfire, and the leader used a stone knife to cut the roasted beast meat on a large leaf.

After placing enough food for two adults on the leaves, the leader put down his stone knife and walked towards the cave with food in both hands.

Su Yan knew that it was the leader who was sending food to Wu, and Wu and his disciples generally did not eat with everyone, because of Wu's status in the snake tribe, every time the leader would send food to Wu first.

After a while, the leader came out of the cave empty-handed, sat directly next to the campfire and took the rest of the roast beast meat and ate it, because of the strict hierarchical concept, the other clansmen of the snake tribe could only watch the leader eat, and several children were about to saliva to flow out, even Su Yan felt that the saliva secretion in his mouth increased, even if this roast beast meat was far from comparable to the food in Su Yan's previous life.

After a while, the fish was also cooked, and the leader swallowed the roast beast meat in his mouth, stood up and glanced at the people around him before saying, "Eat." ”

The hungry people can't wait.

Foot 1.9 meters tall, the strong and strong man came to the side of the bonfire, took all the remaining bit of roast beast meat in his hand, and took a roast fish weighing more than a catty, held the food in both hands, and squeezed towards the outside of the bonfire.

Dali is the strongest person in the snake tribe, and the leader can only be regarded as the second strongest person in the snake tribe, but Dali's wisdom is not high, a little silly, and in the last battle for the leader, he was defeated by the current leader with wisdom.

After the vigorous attack, the adult male tribesmen such as Fierce Face, One-Eyed, Big Mouth, and Big Black went forward one by one to take enough food from the campfire to fill their stomachs, and then the adult female tribesmen also took a certain amount of food one by one, and when it came to the minors, the adult tribesmen directly distributed food to them.

The consumption of children is naturally not as good as that of adults, and there are more grilled fish, so two or three children share a grilled fish, and Su Yan, Xiaohua, and Xiaoyue share a grilled fish weighing nearly two catties.

The adoptive mother helped to hold the food, and the eldest and third came to the corner of the open space and sat together, Xiaohua and Xiaoyue's dark eyes stared directly at the two grilled fish in the adoptive mother's hands.

The adoptive mother handed two grilled fish, one large and one small, to Su Yan and Xiaoyue respectively, and said softly, "Eat." ”

Xiao Yue couldn't wait to take the slightly smaller but full pound of grilled fish that was still steaming, and took a bite of it.

Su Yan hesitated slightly, then took the grilled fish and took a bite towards the meaty fish.

What is the taste of grilled fish without scales and seasonings, anyway, when "Su Yan" ate grilled fish for the first time, because of the memory of the food in his previous life, Su Yan wanted to vomit disgustingly, but he had no way to control his body, naturally there was no way to vomit it, but after all these years, Su Yan has become accustomed to the taste of this kind of grilled fish, and now he can control his body, but he doesn't have much reaction, just as food to satisfy hunger.

The adoptive mother and Xiaohua watched Su Yan and Xiaoyue eat grilled fish, the adoptive mother's demeanor was quite normal, but Xiaohua looked greedy but seemed to say: "Hurry up and eat, I'm dying of hunger." ”

Xiao Yue devoured most of the grilled fish in her hand before reluctantly stopping her mouth, Xiao Yue was the youngest, but she also knew that her sister and mother hadn't eaten yet, and she just ate it herself.

Here Su Yan also stopped talking, and the whole fish was eaten by Su Yan a little more than a third, barely eating a seven-point full.

If it were yesterday, "Su Yan" would not stop if he was not full.

The adoptive mother did not have doubts, put Su Yan's leftover fish in Xiaohua's hands, and took Xiaoyue's leftover fish and ate it herself.

After breakfast and a short rest, most of the adult males of the snake tribe gathered in the open space outside the cave with their weapons, their weapons were varied, stone spears, stone axes, wooden sticks, and some people directly held stones.

"Let's go."

The leader gave the order and set out with nineteen adult males to hunt, and there were still a few adult males left in the tribe, who were responsible for protecting the tribe.

Now that it is spring and there is no fruit to collect, the adult female tribe of the snake tribe will carry sharpened sticks to the small river more than 200 meters south of the cave to spearfish fish.

If the hunting party has no catch, they will also go to the river to fish when they come back.
