After a few days of hard work, the three brothers found a large cave by the lake, walked in with torches, and found a spring, they tasted a sip of spring water, it was very delicious, and it was sweet in their mouths, and they followed the flow of the spring water and found that the spring water flowed into the nameless lake. The three brothers were very happy, didn't there be an entrance to the cave and an entrance to the cave? They hurried to the cave and told the good news to their father, Uncle Gao Shan immediately followed his sons, took a torch into the hole, saw that this hole can burn a big fire, dozens of people can eat barbecue, and went inside to taste the spring water, better than the lake water, and then went to see the mouth of the cave, Uncle Gao Shan was very happy, immediately asked the three brothers to get hay and dry firewood to try to burn a fire, the three brothers quickly got hay and dry firewood, with cigarette butts to light the fire, the smoke quickly flowed to the mouth of the cave, and the ignition was successful.

Uncle Gao Shan said excitedly: "Now we are not afraid of rain, our fire will never be extinguished, and we have unexpectedly found delicious spring water." ”

Under the leadership of Xiaoshan, through a few days of hard work, people dug two pools by the lake, filled them with water, and put in a lot of live "water meat" to raise, and they could eat delicious "water meat" at any time. After a few more days, people not only ate barbecue meat, but also learned to use bamboo tubes for barbecue, and ate more delicious bamboo tube meat.

At dawn on this day, Xiao Tao gave birth to a son, and the whole family was very happy. Uncle Takayama named his grandson Huohuo.

After another three days, Xiaohua gave a daughter, and the whole family was even happier, and Uncle Gao Shan named his granddaughter Yanyan, which means: There is fire and smoke, and the good days with fire can no longer be lost......

Uncle Gao Shan and Aunt He have been married for three years, the old couple respect and love each other, care for each other, take care of each other, take their little grandchildren and foreign daughters every day to play, enjoy the joy of family, sometimes go to collect tobacco leaves, sometimes go to play fishing "water meat", sometimes go to let the horses eat grass, and live a very happy life.

Since Xiaoshan became the leader of the mountain tribe, he has been very motivated, and he has led everyone to do a very good job, he has found out the place where the wolves often move, and adopted the trap method to eliminate the evil wolves on the nameless island, and the people and domestic animals are safe. Captive livestock have also developed rapidly, and they have grown to 210 heads (strips) by combining grazing and feeding; The two pools are full of "water meat", and you can eat "water meat" at any time; Every day, the prey hunted is not eaten, and dried meat is made; The ewes fed have produced milk, and the elderly and children can drink goat's milk every day; The fruit pickers also worked hard, and ate a lot of fruit; The cultivation of tobacco has also been successful, which can fully meet the needs of everyone to smoke; A fire was burned in the big cave, so that it was no longer afraid of rain, and a large fire was also burned on the lawn for everyone to use in hot weather, singing and dancing. The people of the mountain tribes, through hard work, have lived a carefree and good life.

In the spring of March of this year, the weather was very good, Uncle Gao Shan and the second elder of Uncle Gao Mountain, walked across the single-plank bridge, came to Uncle Shi's house, led the red horse to eat grass, saw Uncle Shi's family was eating bamboo tube meat, and used a clay bowl to hold water to drink. Uncle Shi warmly received the second elder Gao Shan, and handed two tubes of bamboo meat to the second elder to eat, Uncle Gao Shan smiled and said: "Uncle Shi, we have eaten, you eat slowly, we are here to lead the red horse to eat grass." ”

Uncle Shi said, "Okay, the horse is tied to the tree on the shore, there is a lot of grass there, you can go and see it." ”

Uncle Gao Shan and the two often lead the horses to graze, the horses have a feeling for them, they wait for the horses to eat and sometimes ride on the horses and jog for a while, today they are also waiting for the horses to eat enough, the two of them ride on the horses, let the horses jog.

Aunt He said: "Lord Gaoshan, I'm a little homesick, and I haven't been home for three years. ”

Uncle Gao Shan replied: "I also have this idea, we are already full of gray hair, while we can still walk around now, we should go back to see, we should also visit old friends, today we will prepare, tomorrow we will ride a horse, we can go to dozens of tribes in more than a month." ”

After the two discussed, they gave the horse to Uncle Shi and went home, and Uncle Gao Shan told the children about the idea of visiting his friends, and the children all supported their parents to visit friends, but they all hoped that the two elders would take care of their bodies and ride slowly.

After breakfast the next day, Uncle Gao Shan and his wife brought enough barbecue and fruits, and the children sent the second elder across the bridge, and watched the second elder ride away before going back.

The two old people rode on the red horse, walked slowly, jogged at the time, and arrived at the Caoping tribe at noon, the eldest sister of Caoping received the two elders very warmly, and all the people who fell came to welcome, and everyone sent fruits and barbecue. Sister Caoping said happily: "Uncle Gao Shan hasn't seen each other for a long time, you don't know yet, everyone respectfully calls you the King of Fireworks in order not to forget your kindness, you have worked hard all your life, and you have done a lot of good things for us, this time the second elder has to stay for a while before leaving." ”

Uncle Gao Shan smoked a cigarette and said with a smile: "Thank you for your praise of me, we only have lunch here and are leaving, dozens of tribes are going to take a look, and we will play for a few more days next time we come back." "Sister Caoping saw that Uncle Gao Shan insisted on leaving, so she had to send the second elder away after lunch.

The second old man rode a horse to reach the Caoyuan tribe before dark, Cao San and the river sister were very happy, and received the two old people very warmly, and the grass three husband and wife were already the parents of a child. Uncle Gao Shan asked, "Why don't you see Uncle Kusao?" Cao San replied sadly: "My dad died of illness last year, and before he died, he asked me to be a good leader and manage the tribe, so I was very busy all day, but I didn't worry about food, and everyone's life was very good, but unfortunately I couldn't accompany the two old people to go everywhere this time." After hearing this, the two elders were very sad, what a good Uncle Caoyuan, he left at a young age, what a pity. After eating the evening, Uncle Gao Shan talked about tribal affairs with Cao San, and Aunt River talked about family affairs with River Sister.

The next morning, the second elder ate the barbecue, said goodbye to the three grass couples, and rode forward, and arrived at the riverside tribe in the afternoon, the river sister was very happy to see the arrival of the second elder, and after letting the two old men sit down, she brought fruit and water. Aunt He asked, "How is the situation of the tribe, everyone is okay?" ”

Sister He replied: "The tribe is good, there are endless barbecue meat, and there is endless "water meat", we have not found a cave with the entrance to the cave, or burn a big fire on the lawn, and it is often extinguished by the rain, but we are all smoking, and after the rain stops, get the dry grass and dry firewood out of the cave, and light the fire with cigarette butts, life is not affected, and now, all the people who fall are very good." How is Xiao Ye's condition, how should he be? ”

Aunt He replied: "Xiao Ye is very good, he doesn't lack anything, he has a good life, he has a boy named Huohuo, he is three years old, and he looks good." ”

Sister He smiled and said: "I am relieved that Xiao Ye is doing well, our tribe has also added 11 children, I gave birth to a son, his face is very similar to Xiao Ye, his name is Yezi, he is very well-behaved, I have a lot of things, and I arranged a woman to raise it for me." Sometimes we take the "crossing the river tree" to the other side to run errands, and then come back after finishing the errands, which is convenient. ”

Aunt He said: "I am very relieved, this time I will go to each tribe with Gao Shanye to see, tomorrow we will cross the river, and after we have traveled through dozens of tribes, we will come back and stay for a few more days." ”

Sister He said, "Okay, tomorrow we will cross the river on our newly made "river crossing tree" that can sit for two people." Aunt River smiled and nodded.

Then Sister He asked Aunt He about Sister He's situation, and said that she would arrange time to visit Sister He and Xiaoye's family.

Aunt He asked with concern, "Sister He, haven't you found a husband yet?" ”

Sister He replied: "I used to find a man named Heshi, but later I saw that he slept lazily every day, didn't want to do things, and had a strange personality, so I didn't want him anymore." I can't find a good man like Xiao Ye anymore, now I'm still alone, I only have Xiao Ye in my heart, and I can't fit other men anymore, there are a lot of things in the tribe every day, and I'm always very busy, let's talk about it later. ”

Aunt He felt a kind of apology in her heart after hearing this, and said comfortingly: "Choose slowly in the future, you will always find a good man's ......" The two of them often stayed late at night before resting.

On this morning, the sun was smiling, everyone had eaten breakfast, Sister He sent the two old men to the river, sat on the new "river crossing tree", very smooth, and soon arrived at the opposite bank.

It took the two old men more than 20 days to visit all the tribes. When the two old people went to visit the Splash Tribe, Sister Splash saw the visit of the Fireworks King, and was moved to tears, she asked the two old people to sit down around the fire, and brought a plate of fruit and two bamboo tubes of meat, and invited the guests to eat. Sister Splash said: "We will never forget the good life that the Fireworks King has brought us, especially the barter you invented, communicate with each other, and solve a lot of problems, otherwise there will be a lot of fights and disputes." The sheep we exchanged for firewood have all been raised in a circle, and now it has grown to more than 120 sheep, and there is no shortage of food. We specially arranged 20 people to pick firewood and cut trees, and after we exchanged firewood for sheep, we used sheep to exchange for cigarette leaves, clay bowls, and clay plates, and we now lack nothing. ”

After hearing this, Uncle Gao Shan said happily: "Your life will get better and better, we have to go to other tribes to see, thank you for your hospitality." Sister Shuihua didn't keep the second elder, so she had to send the second elder on the road early the next morning.

The second elder returned to the riverside tribe and spent nearly a month visiting more than 30 tribes including Heda. This visit to the old friend, the feeling is really deep, everywhere they go, they are warmly welcomed by people, his kindness will never be forgotten, in order to thank him, people respect him as the king of fireworks.

In the past three years, great changes have taken place in the tribes, and the fires of the tribes have become more and more vigorous, and 18 tribes have found a cave with an entrance to the cave, and a permanent fire is burning in the cave. Smoking has become a habit of life, and nine tribes have grown their own fragrant tobacco. People can use torches and traps to hunt flexibly, and the harvest is very large, and each tribe has endless meat. In particular, the development of captive livestock has been faster, with each tribe raising at least more than 100 domestic animals in captivity, and six tribes have started grazing and breeding. Everyone learned to fish for "water meat" and raise "water meat" in the pool.

What's more gratifying is that the aquatic grass tribe also invented boiled meat, the smart water baby, with their own fired clay pottery, loaded with meat and spring water, boiled with fire and eaten, people said that it was too delicious after eating, especially the taste of the broth is fresher and more fragrant. Because of the use of hands to grasp the meat burn hands, the water baby invented two small branches to eat the meat. This time, the second elder of the fireworks king also tasted the delicious taste of boiled meat, which was really praised. (Later it was discovered that the meat was more delicious when boiled in spring water with a salty taste.)

There are dozens of tribes that exchange sheep for clay pottery utensils of the water and grass tribes, and there are also many tribes who use sheep to exchange for cigarettes and other objects. Among the dozens of tribes, the Shuicao tribe is the richest, and they have exchanged a lot of sheep for the clay pottery they invented, and they exchange the sheep for what they need, which can be said to have everything......

Uncle Gao Shan and the two old men spent more than a month visiting all the old friends on both sides of the strait, and saw that great changes had taken place in each tribe. He thought: In the future, the tribes will further develop, and the people's lives will be even better. When he thought of this, he felt very satisfied and proud, but he also thought: I don't know how big this world is, I don't know how many tribes in the southeast have no fireworks, and I always feel that I have more than enough heart but not enough strength, and the future affairs can only be completed by young people.

The two old men spent more than a month visiting friends very happily, and rode the red horse in a comfortable mood, slowly returned, and walked towards the nameless island......
