When it's cold and hungry, these people are willing to do anything to survive. As the weather warms up and the vegetation regrows, the strange customs and habits of these people are restored.

Just walking a little way to the other side of the river, Lin Ji saw several men from the same tribe rubbing their bodies on the bark of trees, picking up stones and throwing stone powder on the bank of the river to eat, and also saw a sick and coughing child who was stuffed by his mother into the cold river water, which was to ask the river god to wash the phlegm from the child's throat......

Lin Ji pointed at the woman, so angry that he couldn't speak, and Po Tu pulled the woman's hair and fell to the shore.

"Shou Li!" Lin Ji shouted, took off his clothes and covered the child who was blue from the cold, and then turned his head and said viciously to the woman: "Remember, now you are my Ji Lin's person, and if you dare to use this previous treatment method in my place, I will kill you." ”

Shouli was in the crowd in the village on the other side of the river, and when he heard Lin Ji's shout, he ran over with a medicine box on his back.

After going out with him once, and seeing that this thing lacked blood, Lin Ji concentrated on asking him to treat his illness before - read him some medical books and medical knowledge, and prepared to make him a full-time doctor.

Lin Ji pointed to the crowd in the village, and let Po Tu go in to stop them first, and he concentrated on reprimanding Shou Li here: "Did you see the child when he was sick?" ”

"See." Shou Li trembled like an intern.

"What disease?"

"Cold and cough."

"And what about the cold medicine cough medicine I gave you?"

"I ate it, he said it was bitter, and he vomited it again."

"That thing is swallowed, swallowed, no need to chew! You're a doctor, if he wants to vomit, won't you slap him and make him swallow? What about the doctor's advice, did the doctor tell you? ”

"Drink plenty of hot water...... I'm going to say it now. ”

Lin Xi felt that living in a bunch of wild people was actually not happy, and he might be angry to death sooner or later. The gap in worldview is too big, and it's actually a painful thing. For example, one person thinks the sea is beautiful, and another person thinks that the sea has drowned many people – it makes people despair.

The planning of the second village is almost the same as that of the first village. It's just that the village built in the ice and snow, after the ice and snow melt away, always feels irregular, and it looks dirtier than a village.

A man and a woman were hung under the eaves, stripped naked and covered in blood, and I don't know how many lashes they had been beaten. There were dozens of people around the side, some gloating, some with meaningless faces, and some not thinking it was a big deal to see the excitement.

Po Tu stood in front of the two of them, and several old women still waved their rattans to go up and beat the two guys who broke the rules to death.

Lin Ji squeezed in and stood in front of him, and asked in a cold voice, "What's going on?" ”

The old women were quick to tell them what had happened, and at the same time angrily threatened to kill them.

Lin Ji ignored their indignation, and then asked: "The rule is to beat ten to fifty whips, how much did Da Ji say to beat them?" How many have you played now? ”

Several of the old women began to feel that something was wrong, and looked at each other, not daring to answer.

"Nonsense!" Lin Ji roared at these old women: "Da Ji doesn't know? Scare? No number of whips? You are lynching! And beat them to death? That rule says cheating is going to be killed? Yes? ”

Lin Ji sprayed these women with dog blood, which made the surrounding onlookers look a little wrong. These women were their former chiefs, and they didn't want to see Lin Ji treat them like this.

Even Po Tu felt that Lin Ji had done too much, so he secretly pulled Lin Ji.

Lin Ji ignored the slaughter, and pointed to a few old women: "Go, find Da Ji to ask for guilt, and see how she punishes you." The rules are set and cannot be violated, and neither do you! ”

The women were a little overwhelmed, but they still crossed the river to find Daji. It's just that Lin Ji's behavior makes people even more dissatisfied, and some people secretly show a dissatisfied look at Lin Ji.

Lin Ji turned to Po Tu and said, "Are you so idle today?" Don't have anything on your schedule? ”

Po Tu said: "It's arranged, listen to you, I'm going to dig the roots today, but there is no sun today, and I'm tired of digging, some people say come back early, and dig again after eating." But the meal is not yet good, so let them feel free. That's what happened. ”

Most of the things are idle.

Lin Ji snorted coldly: "Will you be lazy? Got used to eating three meals a day? Tell the cafeteria to turn off the fire, there is no lunch today. Everyone, now go to the river to pick up stones and spread the ground, and if you can't lay it, you won't have dinner. ”

Don't you like to eat stone powder to grind your lower body, let you eat, let you grind!

Po Tu didn't understand Lin Ji, but he obeyed Lin Ji's words, and as soon as Lin Ji's words fell, he asked people to spread the word to the cafeteria. Someone looked at this side without moving, so he pulled out the machete he was carrying and shouted, "What are you stunned! Didn't you hear that? Pick up rocks and pave the ground! ”

Fa Arc is now the owner of Erzhai, he went directly back to the house and took a bow and arrow, and also stood next to the forest tracks. He is a self-reliant and competitive person, and he has long seen that some of them are dissatisfied, and whoever dares to make a move, he really dares to do it.

When everyone saw that the slaughter and the arc were like this, they didn't dare to stay any longer, and they all moved tightly or slowly.

The canteens on both sides of the village went out at the same time, and everyone went to the river to pick up stones, and the scene was also spectacular. As soon as the ice and snow melt, the village is muddy inside and out, and the ground is paved, which is much more convenient and clean.

Lin Ji stood under a tree by the river, and at first only Po Tu and Fa Arc were there, but later Qiao Huan, Chang Shen, Ying and several other leaders also surrounded him.

They all wanted to persuade Lin Ji, or hear what Lin Ji had to say.

Lin Ji looked at it for a long time and said slowly: "They are testing us. ”

Po Tu and the others looked at each other, and they didn't quite understand the meaning of the forest traces.

Lin Ji said: "We have things to do here every day, and the rules are complicated, and some of them are just afraid to leave our tribe. ”

This time they understood, and their faces became very ugly.

The difficult winter is over, and spring is back to the earth. For primitive people, who eat similar to orangutans, there will be no shortage of food for most of the next half year. In the past, everyone's living habit was to move freely within their own territory, usually after eating the things in this place, and then going to the next place, spending an hour or two every day looking for food to fill their stomachs, and they could live a very leisurely life. There is that kind of life to live, why stay every day without knowing the so-called digging tree roots and turning over the land?

As for the next winter, it will be more than half a year away, what do you want to do so much? Maybe when he comes back to Ji Lin, he can live the same warm and full days?

Arc hatefully said: "They dare! Whoever they dare, I will kill! ”

Lin Ji said: "They are challenging our rules, that is, testing our attitude. The biggest problem with the reason why they are like this is that you don't pay attention to the rules. In one way, it is your lack of determination that leads them to such thoughts. ”

Everyone thought of a few old women whipping at will, but they didn't go out to stop it, and felt that what Lin Ji said probably made some sense. I just think maybe it's a bit exaggerated.

Lin Ji said: "The reason why rules should be paid attention to is that from their point of view, this can maintain their equality. It can allow them not to worry about not getting the reward they deserve, and they don't have to worry about being beaten to death by others just by making a small mistake. For me, for you, to maintain this tribe of more than 300 people. ”

Lin Ji knew that because of the limitation of human energy, a loose organization would develop to a certain scale, and it would be full of diseases, inefficient and even fall apart. In later generations, many family-owned businesses were smooth sailing at the beginning, and after they developed to a certain scale, internal strife broke down, which was actually caused by this problem.

In this case, to maintain a large, efficient, and fast organization, many very strict rules are required to maintain. This is true of large companies or large organizations.

Lin Ji knew this, but he had no way to illustrate it with the examples of later generations, so he could only start from a small point and analyze them: "Can any of you recognize everyone in the tribe now?" Do you know the past, habits and character of each of them? ”

Naturally, no one could answer these questions, and after asking around, Lin Ji continued: "If there are no rules, and people you don't know ask you to do things, what should you do?" ”

After explaining this, Lin Ji said again: "Have you ever wondered why there are no tribes with more than 150 people around our tribe? Even if there are so many people in the Youda tribe, why do they have to live in three separate areas...... That's why their rules aren't strict enough and they're forced to do this. ”

Everyone had an epiphany and said that they must pay attention to the rules. Lin Ji said: "Starting tomorrow, digging tree roots and digging in groups and groups, you can't rest until you reach the point or don't finish it, and if you delay the overall progress too much, you won't have anything to eat." Change our people to be on duty tonight, confiscate tools before going to bed, and prevent those with ulterior motives from making trouble......"

After the arrangement was completed, everyone dispersed, and Lin Ji was ready to go to the crowd to instruct everyone on how to pave the road.

At the end, Fa Arc was a little hesitant and said to Lin Ji: "Actually, now that I think about it, there are more than 150 people in Li, and it seems that they all live together. ”

"Like?" Lin Ji's face twitched a little, and he could only seize this loophole to refute.
