Chapter 8 No fire wolf hurts

This year's winter is particularly cold, and the south, where snow is rarely seen, actually snows heavily, not only with heavy snow, but also with strong winds. The poor people who live in the nest are even more miserable, cold and hungry, and their days are sad! The people of the mountain tribe recalled the days when there was a fire, how good it was at that time, everyone gathered around the fire, ate fragrant barbecue, and ate sweet and sour fruits, and after being full, they sang and danced to their heart's content, and it was really warm to sleep around the fire. If only there was a fire now! Everyone can keep warm, eat barbecue, and sleep by the fire, how comfortable it would be. Alas! Where can I find fire? People think about the fire day and night, and the good days when there is fire.

That night, the lovely little flower face was frozen red, the nest that was already very cold, and then the snow wind blew, just like an ice cellar, the cold could not fall asleep for a long time, in the middle of the night just fell asleep and had a sweet dream, dreaming that everyone was around the fire, eating fragrant barbecue, she herself led the boys and girls to sing and dance happily, so lively, the handsome and tall Xiao Zhuang also danced, and showed love to her, chased her, she smiled happily, ran, she ran there too Xiao Zhuang, was caught up by Xiao Zhuang tightly in his arms, kissed her, She feels so happy at the moment...... At this time, a biting cold wind blew, waking up Xiaohua's sweet dream, and she kept shouting: "Xiao Zhuang, Xiao Zhuang, the fire, the fire ......."

Uncle Gao Shan did not fall asleep, and was thinking about how to live in the future. He had just heard Xiaohua laughing happily in her dream, and now he was constantly shouting about the little fire. He asked heartbrokenly: "Xiaohua, you are dreaming, have you woken up coldly." Xiaohua said shyly: "It's a dream, I dreamed that everyone was around the fire, eating fragrant barbecue, singing and dancing around the fire, if there was really a fire, how nice it would be!" Uncle Gao Shan comforted his daughter and said, "If we can find the fire, we will definitely be able to find the fire." People are suffering in the cold winter, how much they miss the fire, how much they want to have a fire!

When I got up in the morning, the sun was showing in the east, and Uncle Gao Shan was arranging the affairs to be done that day. At this moment there was a cry from the fence: "Oh no, the lamb has been bitten away by wild beasts." Everyone rushed to the pen, and Xiaohua found that there were only four of the six sheep left, and Xiaohua cried sadly again. It turned out that it snowed heavily last night, and the biting snow wind kept blowing, and the people who guarded it were unbearably cold because there was no fire to keep warm, so they all went back to the nest shed. It was precisely because there was no fire and the protection of the fire was lost that the wild beast boldly came and stole the two lambs.

In order to protect the livestock, Uncle Gao Shan strengthened the team to protect the livestock, and arranged Xiaoshan, Xiaoshu, Xiaozhuang and a few strong young people to be responsible for guarding the livestock. The original keepers continued to cut the hay to feed the livestock, while the rest continued to pick wild fruits and hunt wild animals.

It was also very cold that night, and Xiaoshan and Xiaozhuang were all armed with wooden sticks, stone knives, and stone axes to carefully guard the livestock. In the middle of the night, it was even colder, and despite the animal skins, it could not withstand the biting cold wind. The hill told everyone not to disperse, but to be warm when they needed to move and jump in place. Then three hungry wolves came, howling and pounced, these hungry wolves had tasted the delicacy last night, so they came again tonight, and Xiaoshan told everyone to hold up their sticks and wait for the hungry wolves to come. When these hungry wolves saw that they were guarded and were afraid of sticks, they ran around and did not dare to rush closer, and after tossing for a while, the three wolves sat not far from them, and their six eyes were staring at them, and they refused to leave.

After holding each other for a while, the three hungry wolves could not bear the hunger, and suddenly rushed towards them desperately, several of them beat violently, and the hungry wolves howled and fled. The little tree told everyone not to chase and always keep the fence, and these hungry wolves rushed twice but failed, and only left in disgrace at dawn.

On the second night, before midnight came a group of osmium wolves, and did not stay, as soon as they came, they launched an attack, fierce, everyone desperately guarded the fence, but they were still defeated by the wolves, and Xiao Zhuang's right leg was bitten. When Xiaoshu rushed to rescue Xiaozhuang, the hungry wolf took the opportunity to rush into the pen and bite away three sheep, and two other piglets ran away due to fright.

The whole tribe shook, and everyone no longer felt sleepy, and they got up to visit Xiao Zhuang. Especially Xiao Tao and Xiao Hua, who stayed by Xiao Zhuang's side and cried. Xiao Zhuang comforted them and said, "Xiaohua, don't cry, don't worry, I didn't hurt my bones, just a small injury, and it will be fine in a few days." "Xiao Zhuang's injury was indeed not very serious, but I didn't know how to treat it at that time, so I could only recuperate and let the injury slowly heal.

Through this time Xiao Zhuang was bitten by a wolf, Uncle Gao Shan further realized the ferocity of the wolf, and decided to increase the number of people guarding the fence to 10, and Xiao Ye fought to participate in the guard. Xiao Ye told everyone to use long wooden sticks, all of which were sharpened into pointed ends, and said that if the wolves came again, they would stab the wolf's head with the stick, hit the wolf's feet, and beat them to death. Everyone was in favor of this method and was ready to fight the wolf.

That night, the wolves came again, it was still the same group of wolves, Xiao Ye whispered: "Everyone, pay attention, we will wait for the wolves to get close and beat them to death." "The wolves still attacked as soon as they came, and went straight to the fence, Xiao Ye asked everyone to surround the wolves and hit the head and feet, this time the wolves were surrounded by everyone and beat and stabbed violently, injuring two wolves, killing one wolf, and the others ran away for their lives. Everyone excitedly shouted: "We have killed the wolf!" We killed the wolf!! "People were so happy.

The next morning, everyone was given a piece of wolf meat, and everyone said that the wolf's meat was fragrant, tender and delicious. Xiao Ye said with a smile: "If the wolf dares to steal our mutton, we will eat the wolf's meat, and see if it dares to steal our sheep." People were smiling. The wolf won the victory, and the wolf suffered a big loss, and he did not dare to steal the sheep lightly in the future.

After Xiao Zhuang was injured, in addition to raising livestock, Xiaohua and Xiao Tao stayed by Xiao Zhuang's side to take care of him. Originally, the injury was not serious, but because there was no medical medicine and methods at that time, he could only recuperate.

It was very cold that morning, Xiao Zhuang's pain was severe, his whole body was feverish, and he kept saying mushy words in his mouth: "The wolf is coming, fight the wolf, fight the wolf." Little Peach and Little Flower were so frightened that they cried, and there was nothing they could do. Xiaohua hurriedly went home and told her father about Xiao Zhuang's situation, Uncle Gao Shan visited Xiao Zhuang with Xiao Shu and Xiao Ye, and saw that Xiao Zhuang had a high fever and was very anxious. Uncle Gao Shan thought for a while and said: "I can only go to Sheng Qingquan water and come back for him to drink, his wound is bleeding yellow water, you can also use Qingquan water to wash it, see if it will be better, I can only try it like this."

The small tree and the small leaf quickly went to the clear spring water to fill the water, picked a plant leaf, rolled it into a concave shape filled with water, and most of it had been leaked after it was brought back. But there is no more to use spring water for toppings.

Xiaoshu and Xiaoye ran to the clear spring water again, or used the leaves as a tool to hold water, the small tree ran back immediately after filling the water, but Xiaoye repeatedly filled the water at the clear spring, he thought that he couldn't run far The water was almost leaking, if the leaves were pasted with mud, and the leakage could be filled with more water, so he decided to try it. He pasted the wet soil on the side of the ditch on the periphery of the concave leaves, and found that there was a leak in the water, so he added some soil to the leakage, filled the water again, and returned to Xiao Zhuang with both hands, only sprinkled a little water, and Xiao Tao said happily: "Xiaoye's method is really good, and he came back with a lot of clear spring water." She loved this clever lad from the bottom of her heart.

Xiao Ye was praised by his beloved girl, and he was happy in his heart, and said happily: "Hurry up and give it to your brother, the rest can be poured on his head, and after using up the clear spring water, I will go to Sheng again, and I will be back soon." Xiao Tao and Xiao Hua helped Xiao Zhuang up and sat down, and Xiao Zhuang drank the water in one go.

Xiao Ye was about to go to the clear spring, when Uncle Gao Shan stopped Xiao Ye and said: "Don't take away the wet soil, leave it and paste it on Xiao Zhuang's head, the soil is wet and cold, see if it can reduce the fever, you can only try." After leaving the soil behind, Xiaoye quickly rushed to the clear spring, still pasting a thick layer of soil on the periphery of the leaves, filling it with water and staying back, this time the effect was better. Let Uncle Gao Shan, Xiao Tao and Xiao Hua all drink the clear spring water. He also pasted new wet soil on Xiao Zhuang's wound.

It is also miraculous to say that in the afternoon, Xiaozhuang's fever began to subside, and the wound no longer flowed yellow. Every day, Xiaohua and Xiaotao replaced Xiaozhuang with wet soil, Xiaozhuang's injury has improved greatly, plus Xiaohua and Xiaotao take care of Xiaozhuang every day, give Xiaozhuang meat, eat wild fruits, and drink clear spring water, half a month later, Xiaozhuang's injury will heal, and he will soon recover his health.

Why is this kind of soil effective against injuries, because the soil soaked in clear spring water for many years contains a lot of minerals and has the effect of sterilization and disinfection. For Xiao Zhuang, who has never used medicine, the effect is naturally very good, but it can't be explained at the time. The people of the mountain tribes call this soil the sacred land. In the future, when someone gets sick or injured, they use this soil to treat it, and the effect is still very good. This may be the first time that we humans have used "medicine" to treat injuries and diseases, and it is also another great progress for mankind!

It has been more than a year since the loss of fire, and the people of the mountain tribe led by Uncle Gao Shan are fighting in a very difficult environment. How much people wish to find the fire, but there is no trace of it. In order to make a living, they still pick wild fruits every day according to the regular schedule, and sometimes there is no fruit at all due to the season. Hunting is not a daily harvest, and sometimes it is empty-handed. Only raising livestock is reliable and develops quickly. Xiaohua and Xiaotao and other young boys and girls are very hard, every day rely on stone knives, bone knives sharpened from cow bones to cut hay, use Teng strips to bundle grass, and carry back to feed livestock, because the livestock eat full every day, so the growth is also very fast, sometimes hunting no harvest, choose to kill big pigs or sheep to solve the problem of life.

The protection of domestic animals was not relaxed, and although people were arranged to strengthen the defense day and night, because there was no protection from fire, it was still impossible to prevent it, and sometimes there were evil wolves to sneak up and bite away lambs or piglets......
