[Some book reviews in the book review area will make newcomers misunderstand, Heng Yi will selectively delete them, and the readers who have deleted the book reviews are sorry, well, it seems that because Heng Yi deleted the book reviews, several people have deleted the book from the bookshelf, crying 555]

Zhi had told Biao that he would prepare shelter and food for the Tiger Tribe, but Biao didn't take it seriously, thinking that the Snake Tribe would prepare a simple shelter and little food at most, and the rest would depend on the Tiger Tribe to solve it themselves.

The problem of food was not known for the time being, and now Zhi led Biao to a row of houses.

Zhi told Biao that the eight houses in this row were all for the people of the Tiger Tribe.

"Listening" to Zhi's words, Biao opened his mouth wide and looked incredulous, Biao didn't expect that Zhi would actually give the house inhabited by the people of the Snake Tribe to the people of the Tiger Tribe to live in.

The last time he came to the Snake Tribe, Biao learned about this kind of house from Zhikou, and all the people of the Snake Tribe moved from the cave to this kind of house, which shows that it is more comfortable to live in a house than in a cave.

Forced to move and flee, before coming to the snake tribe in the future, the people of the tiger tribe could only live in a simple dwelling made of branches, leaves and weeds, and it was difficult to even shelter from the wind and rain.

When the people of the Tiger tribe learned that they were going to live in this kind of house, they curiously circled around the house and touched the hard walls of the house with their hands.

At present, excluding Wu and Biao in the Tiger Tribe, there are 16 adult males, 33 adult females, 49 minors, and 3 elderly and sick people, a total of 100 people.

Before the winter of last year, the total population of the Tiger Tribe was as high as more than 150 people, and then because of hunting in the cold winter, being chased by enemies, and being forced to brave the cold to move, the total population of the Tiger Tribe is now only 103 people, and the total population has been directly reduced by one-third, and the strength has been greatly damaged.

If the last time that enemy didn't go the wrong way to the Snake Tribe, but caught up with the Tiger Tribe, it is very likely that the Tiger Tribe no longer exists.

There are a total of one hundred and three people in the Tiger Tribe, and eight standard houses are allocated, one of which is inhabited by the Tiger Witch (abbreviation) and the disciples of the Tiger Witch, and the totem poles that are most important to the Tiger Tribe and the stone tablets that record various knowledge are put into the house where the Tiger Witch lives.

The remaining one hundred and one people of the Tiger tribe, including the leader Biao, are scattered to live in the other seven houses, and one house has an average of about sixteen people, which does not seem crowded, and the distribution of housing is also a message to the snake tribe, with families as a unit, several families live in one house.

The people of the Tiger tribe walked into the house assigned to them, they looked left and right curiously, and the people of the snake tribe followed them, using gestures to explain to them the situation in the room, the most important thing to pay attention to is the stove, be careful when operating, do not burn the whole house in the life of the fire.

After all the people of the Tiger Tribe had allocated their houses and sorted out their houses a little according to their own habits, Zhi walked over with a large pile of pottery from the Snake Tribe, including complete large pottery and pottery bowls of different sizes.

Zhi came to Biao and said, "This is what I promised you, what my tribe has, your tribe will have." ”

When Biao saw these pottery, he was so excited that he couldn't speak.

When Biao's mood calmed down a little, Zhi and Biao distributed pottery to the people of the Tiger tribe together, and each house was assigned a complete large pottery, mainly used to hold cool white water, and drink water at any time when they were thirsty at night.

In addition to the large pottery, those in the Tiger tribe who are more than one meter tall (roughly) are given a pottery bowl, adults are given larger bowls, and minors are given smaller bowls.

The people of the Tiger tribe seem to have obtained a priceless treasure, carefully holding their pottery bowls, for fear that if they accidentally let the pottery bowl bump into it, a little loss can make them feel distressed.

Indeed, this pottery bowl is very different from the stone bowl they threw away before, and they have thrown those ugly stone bowls far away in their hearts, leaving only the pottery bowl in their hands.

Since the Tiger Witch entered the Snake Tribe's residence, he rarely spoke, most of the time he looked at the surrounding situation with a blank face, looking at the happy smiling faces of the clansmen, the Tiger Witch sighed unconsciously.

In the open space in the middle of the Snake Tribe's residence, a series of six bonfires were blazing, and the people of the Snake tribe were busy carrying food from the place where it was stored, roasting it close to the flame, and not forgetting to sprinkle a little white salt.

The food is mainly the swimming fish caught by the snake tribe fishing team in the morning, and in addition to fresh fish, there are also a small amount of pickled animal meat, pickled fish, and fruits that are not eaten in winter.

The food piled up around the six campfires could not be eaten by three hundred people with open stomachs.

The people of the Tiger tribe who are still busy in their new homes smell the smell of food wafting in the air, they swallow their saliva unconsciously, since they moved and fled, except for the members of the hunting team, the rest of the tribe rarely have a full meal, and today they have walked for most of the day to come to the snake tribe, and their physical strength is violently consumed, and they are already hungry.

Zhi took two grilled fish weighing more than two catties from the campfire, and took the grilled fish, Zhi walked to Biao's side, and Zhi handed a grilled fish to Biao, who only paused a little and then took the grilled fish.

Fish is still a relatively unfamiliar food to Biao and even the entire Tiger tribe.

Zhi made a gesture to Biao to eat, and then held the remaining grilled fish with both hands and tore it up, seeing that Biao swallowed his saliva.

Biao smelled the aroma of the grilled fish, hesitated slightly, and then brought the grilled fish to his mouth and took a gentle bite.

Ordinary grilled fish is naturally not very tasty, but this is a salted grilled fish, and the taste is no worse than that of unsalted grilled animal meat.

Biao felt good after tasting it, and he also took a big bite of it, and when he ate the fish bones, he directly chewed the fish bones and swallowed them into his stomach, and the people of the snake tribe who often ate fish, especially the children of the snake tribe, would spit out the fish bones when they ate fish.

Soon, Zhi and Biao ate the grilled fish in their hands, and after a while, dinner was ready, and Zhi Rang Biao beckoned his people to come over for dinner, and the food was next to the campfire, and they could take it at will.

Zhi and Biao mainly use gestures to communicate, even Meng Dai guessed can only understand a general idea, Biao and the tribesmen speak in the spoken language of the Tiger tribe, although the vocabulary is small, but it is also easy for the tribesmen to understand.

When the people of the Tiger Tribe learned that they could go to the campfire to get food to eat at will, they opened their mouths in surprise, feeling very incredible.

Whether it is the tiger tribe or the snake tribe before the fish cage appeared, the food is distributed uniformly, and under normal circumstances, only the witches, chiefs, and members of the hunting team can eat enough, and the rest of the people can barely get enough food to keep them from starving.

Now that they are allowed to take food from the campfire at will, is it true that the snake tribe has too much food to eat?
