Chapter 15: Joy

The tribe's greeting of the warriors was a grand one. The welcome is the minimum, and there are still a dozen or so torches in the middle of the day, which should not be for lighting, but some kind of ritual.

The men who went out held the wolf skins on their shoulders in their arms and walked towards the end of the human wall, and Lin Ji followed at the end with the fish basket.

The sun was still setting in the sky, and the earth was golden. At the end of the human wall is not a schoolboy holding flowers, but Daihime standing on a half-meter-high stone. Po Tu, who was walking in front, lifted the wolf skin in his hand high, and found that it had been lifted above Da Ji's head, so he bent down and lowered the height a little so that Da Ji could see the color of the wolf skin and the small pile of wolf teeth on it.

Taking wolf teeth is the meaning of forest traces, and this thing is just used to make arrow clusters. Washing should not be toxic.

In addition, Lin Ji still has a little bit of Xiao Shiyilang's bad taste for a wolf's tooth necklace, and he is going to get one for himself.

The sunlight shines on the shack trees around Daihime and the rocks beneath her feet, making this picture quite beautiful. Lin Ji glanced behind him, and it was a pity that he couldn't take a camera out to take a picture. Otherwise, you might win some kind of photography award...... Well, there is no such award at this time.

In this era, there is no such thing as 'fortunate or dishonored'. Po Tu reported: "The method of the trace boy is very useful, the wolves are poisoned. The ones that weren't poisoned were also killed by us in the wolf's den, and the ones that weren't dead were also brought back. The kid said that wolf meat was also poisonous, and only let us take the skin and teeth back, and he said that it could be used after washing. ”

Da Ji touched the wolf's hair, twisted a wolf tooth and looked at it, and said with a smile on his face: "Well done." This wolf tooth is one for each of our men. You and the kid have a few more. ”

Daihime doesn't have the bad taste of forest traces, but wearing the teeth of a fierce beast at this time is a symbol of bravery. You can kill a vicious beast and take out your teeth, but you can't do it without bravery.

As soon as Daji's words came out, the scene became enthusiastic. Wolf teeth are not easy to get, and if you have one on your body, you can also make people feel more awe when you meet people from other tribes in the forest.

After the slaughter, a man offered a leopard skin in the same pose, "This is what we hunted on our way out last night." It's bald. It tried to take the Tracer Boy away, but the Traceboy held the torch all the way to keep it from mouthing. When he reached an open place, the Trace Boy extinguished the torch and waited for it to be extinguished. We'll kill it. ”

Da Ji touched the dent on the leopard's scalp and was very satisfied. The forest trail at the back of the team was also very satisfied. This man is good, and he knows how to help him beautify a few words, and such a tall and brave young man jumps out.

When the leopard was peeled, everyone was still worried about the result of the slaughter and forgot to take the teeth, which is a little pity. Otherwise, get the leopard's two canine teeth and wear them on the body more majestic.

When Lin Ji was proud, the third man walked up to Da Ji with the she-wolf killed in the wolf's den. This was the only intact wolf that was brought back, as it was judged that the wolf was not poisoned. During a break on the road, I caught a fox and tried it, but the fox was not poisoned in the end, and the meat of the she-wolf was edible.

The man said, "This is the she-wolf we killed in the wolf's den." The she-wolf was a keeper of her cubs, and she was not poisoned, and she was still very scary when she rushed out of the hole...... We got in the way, and the kid ran away......"

This guy is a drama spirit, he put down the she-wolf as he spoke, and made a fart-boiling and tumbling posture on the spot, so that the image of Lin Ji just being concave by the man in front of him immediately collapsed.

The crowd around them burst into laughter. Lin Ji's face darkened, and he hated to come out with a gun and burst out of this guy.

Da Ji smiled: "The first time he went out hunting, it was not bad. ”

Lin Ji couldn't understand the laughter at all, but the people around him still added a burst of laughter again. Special bear claws, an ugly face is smiling into a chrysanthemum.

The atmosphere became joyful, and the men in the back also asked Daji to look at the wolf skin he was holding one by one. Da Ji did not hesitate to praise it.

With so many wolf skins, the fur for the winter is basically enough. Once the wolves are gone, there is no need to move to other food-scarce places to spend the winter. With so much less predator in the forest, the tribe should have access to too much food in the days to come. These are all things to be happy about.

Finally, it was Lin Ji's turn, and he opened the lid on the basket, revealing five fleshy wolf cubs inside. One or two of them were still getting up and whimpering outside.

"Alive?" Da Ji looked at it, didn't reach in, just said, "Such a small cub, I'm afraid there is no meat." ”

Lin Ji said: "This is not for eating. I'm going to learn from the gray wolf department and domesticate these wolves into dogs. ”

"Nonsense! The gray wolf department has the favor of the wolf god, in order to raise the wolf, we believe in the god of Ji Zuli, how can we raise? On Da Ji's side, Bear Paw jumped up first without waiting for Da Ji to make a statement.

The people around were also a little strange and looked at the forest tracks. The wolf is a beast of prey, it eats people, there is no wolf god constraints, and if you raise it in the tribe, you don't eat the people of your own tribe first?

This is the most normal thought. Before science education became widespread, the most common way for the toiling masses to explain their abilities was that they had the favor of such and such a god. So those who can read are Wenqu Xing, and those who are high in force are the reincarnation of Meng Zhang Fei and so on. In this age of ignorance, this atmosphere is even more serious, and whenever you sneeze may be the result of a certain god's blame.

Lin Ji thought about this in the blink of an eye, and said casually: "We have killed a whole litter of wolves, and the wolf god will also fear our Jizu Li God, as long as we pray, it should also pass on the ability to tamese wolves to us." Otherwise, how would it have let us get this little wolf cub back? ”

Lin Ji's words instantly made the bear's paw dumb. Gods and ghosts are sometimes plausible, and Lin Ji's words also sound quite reasonable.

"So, what do they eat?" In the crowd, a child whispered. The boy was obviously afraid that the wolves would eat him first.

Lin Ji said: "Let's just give them our leftovers, such as bones or something." If they don't, we can make them eat. ”

"Oh? Hahahahaha......ha

As soon as the words of eating came out, everyone was stunned for a moment, and then burst into laughter again. Let the man-eating wolf eat, this is funny when you hear it, even if there is a wolf god to patronize it, it's not like this, right?

In the crowd, only a few people did not laugh. Gradually, everyone stopped laughing and looked at these few people who weren't laughing, because these people seemed to be more knowledgeable. Among them are Bear Claw and Broken Slaughter, as well as the men exchanged for the Gray Wolf Department.

Bear Claw didn't speak with a black face, and Po Tu had to explain to everyone: "The wolves of the gray wolf department eat. ”

Everyone looked at the forest trails, and they were embarrassed to bow their heads, it seemed that people were really knowledgeable, and they laughed at how embarrassed they were. However, the fact that wolves eat does make it difficult for many people to accept.

At this time, the concept of wolf and dog is still relatively vague, and the pronunciation of both is the same. According to the meaning of later generations, it is better for the gray wolf department to be called the gray dog department. Perhaps because of the domestication method and the concept of domestication, even the gray wolf department itself thinks that it has a wolf and not some domesticated dog, so the difference between the two has not yet appeared.

Lin Ji knew that the dog eating feces in later generations was not the result of genetic mutations, but its ancestor wolf was a scavenger and basically ate everything. Human feces are still a good carrion in nature, and they can also get nutrients from them.

Da Ji should also know about the wolves of the gray wolf department eating, so he didn't delve into this matter further. Anyway, if you eat, you can't waste the tribe's things, and these wolves are still small and don't pose a big threat to the tribe, so she plans to take a look. If Lin Ji can really raise wolves, a young man may not be able to exchange them, and he will need more additional things.

Later, when she took everyone to worship the god of Jizu Li, she also deliberately added the wolf god. Starting today, there is one more god in the Ji Lin Department.

At the end of the ceremony, it was already dark, and the women lit several large fires. The men giggled and cut the meat, skewered the fish, and distributed the meat under the command of Dahime.

There is a she-wolf today. Zhu Monkey and others went down to the river and fished half a basket of fish back. Lin Ji has not eaten the fish he caught yesterday, and he was asked by Daji to peel and wash it and dry it in a cool place, and now the weather is cool and it is not bad. The children got a lot of wild onions and perilla and came back. It can be regarded as rich in meat and full of seasonings. Da Ji allotted everyone a large portion, and they were all enough to eat. The slaughter was almost divided into two servings.

Po Tu's hand has enough to eat, and everyone can enjoy the barbecue, and then eat it slowly. Some people also tried grilling fish with shiso and wild shallots, and sure enough, they tasted something different.

When everyone is almost full, activities around the campfire become abundant. Some men with their children once again danced around the slaughter and danced in a bouncing harvest. He began to tell the story of all the things that had happened in the past day and night, and he could attract the attention of a woman very closely. Bear Paw took out a valley whistle and whimpered and blew out an unknown tune, which attracted many people to circle around him, making him triumphant.

Lin Ji saw the colorful feathers behind the bonfire, and he also listened to the music of the bear paw with his face in his face, and couldn't help but sigh that there was a market for artistic expertise in any era. In the eyes of future generations, it is estimated that they are seventy or eighty, just because they can make these two crooked tones, they can still attract the attention of the little girl.

I'll get a piano out and cover you when I get back. Lin Ji thought fiercely. He has wandered the world, he is not very good at the piano, and there is no problem with playing the guitar.
