Chapter 64

There are not many gifts, and they will always be read one by one. Pen fun and pavilion www.biquge.info

The people in the room understood a lot, so they fell silent, and the only thing they didn't understand was the scale.

Eyue put the scale aside, because his wife told him that she had already thought of the return gift for the scale.

In addition to the title, the rest of the gifts let these people know what Jian Chen wanted to tell them.

A jar of wheat beans and a pot of spirits is not for them to eat, but to let them know that their tribe is also cultivated and settled, and there is surplus grain to make wine.

Wine is not only an intoxicating mellow aroma, but also a proof of the abundance of food in the tribe. Enough food, not the kind of tribe that collapses after a defeat.

The white flute and the black Xun are not for them to play, but to let them know that their tribe has the spare strength to think about things other than survival.

Music is the expression of inner emotions after eating and drinking, under the condition of insufficient emotional vocabulary.

Happy, painful, loved, hated...... They are not pigs and sheep, not plants and trees, have no substance, cannot be described in an era when words are not rich, and have no conventional meaning, or use the taste on the tip of the tongue to metaphorize the heart; Either that, or use melodious and passionate tunes to depict the heart.

There is a flute, a sound of nature, a drum, a whistle, and a whistle, and if you are still struggling for survival, what other emotions can you have except hunger and pain?

The cyan bronze mirror and the gray kitchen knife are not for them to apply yellow to the mirror and kill fish on the stove, but to let them know that copper can be cast into a mirror, and it can also be Ge.

The mirror can shine on people, if the two clans do not move the sword, the mirror will be a pair; If the knife is moved, the woman in the mirror will only have tears and no flowers.

She may not have thought about it so much, but she knew that the tribe was not the kind of tribe that she could easily destroy.

Jian Chen believed that Eyue and his people would be able to know the strength of their tribe from the barley, bean, wine, and copper.

These things can only exert their effect in civilized races, and for those savage races, these things are far less pleasant than a human head and a pinch of blood.

The barbarian tribe can't understand it, and may even smile faintly, feeling that it is meaningless, and it is okay to look at it or not.

The people around E Yue could understand, so the silence in the room lasted for a long time.

Taking out Chen Jian's painting on silk, E Yue looked at it for a long time, roughly understood what it meant, and smiled unconsciously when she saw the gelding at the end of the scroll.

"What do you think?"

"Some of the Dongyi tribes have moved to the north, and they will come close to us one day. There are healthy tribes in the west, and we have to fight them if we want to. But they are not easy to fight, and I think if we do, we will kill a lot of people. ”

"yes, don't you think it's strange? Where did this tribe come from? Their language is somewhat similar to ours, but not quite the same. Twenty years ago, were there any other tribes that migrated west? ”

"No, but we moved to the banks of the river from elsewhere a long time ago, maybe they moved a long time ago."

Eyue recalled the tribes that had moved away after the civil strife twenty years ago, and was sure that none of them had moved here, and she couldn't help but be a little puzzled.

After pondering for a while, he said: "Their tribe has things that we don't have, and we also have things that they don't have, which can be exchanged. ”

The woman next to her nodded and said, "You can change it, but the silk silkworm moth can't be changed, unless they exchange it for copper smelting, but they definitely won't change it." In addition, you can change, we have a lot of corn and beans, divination after moving, the nail pattern is smooth, and this year will be a bumper year. ”

The family agrees with the woman that some things must not be changed.

E Yue smiled: "Since you want to change, what do you want to change?" ”

Since the leader said so, the clansmen spoke freely, indeed, there were too many things to change.

The women wanted bronze mirrors, the houses and cities wanted the tools to cut the boards, the children wanted sweet sweets, the horns and trumpets wanted some flutes, and the calendars wanted more wheat seeds and planting seasons......

Like a morning bird, there is no longer the dullness in the house, they are not ready to fight the healthy tribes, and of course they are not afraid of the healthy tribes to beat themselves, they are almost different from each other, no one is absolutely sure, this is the real reason for peace.

E Yue waved his hand to signal the clansmen to be quiet first, raised the silk silk in his hand and said, "That kid named Jian wants to build a city on the border between the two clans. I think after we finish planting corn, some people will build one on our side, or the two tribes will build it together. One is to see how well they build the city, and the other is that the distance is far away, and if you want to exchange, it's just right there. ”

The younger brother, who was in charge of building the house, nodded and said, "When the corn is planted, I'll take someone there." ”

Eyue nodded, turning her head to his second wife, who was in charge of the tribe's corn cargo.

"You have to be prepared and think about what you want to change."

The woman thought for a moment, frowned, and said, "There are a lot of things to change." We don't have much salt, their salt is not bitter, this is to be changed. The two cans of seeds also have to be exchanged, they chose to fight at this time, these two things must not be planted with corn, otherwise how can there be time? Staggered time, in case of disaster and flood, we will not be able to harvest corn and these things. ”

A third, well-versed witch doctor's wife, also said, "And their herbs." Four of the more than 20 people who were seriously injured survived, and most of those minor injuries did not die, which is already terrifying. I had a sneak peek at those people, and they had herbs, but I didn't know them. ”

"Well, you guys think about this slowly, and come up with a gift for giving back as soon as possible."

The woman in charge of divination smiled: "Yue, I've already thought about it." They gave us silkworm moths, and we asked the people to carve a cluster of jade, and the kind of plant he drew on the silk should be the surname of their tribe, and it was good to carve it according to the pattern. ”

"What about the others?"

"The food is good, jerky, sauce, corncakes, dates. Playthings are also easy to say, seashells, silk show. The seeds give back to corn and beans, and the musical instruments have horns and silk strings. Let's give back the nine-number chart, and we won't let him laugh at us. Just ......"

Speaking of this, she looked at the unknown scale and hesitated for a moment.

The wooden pole was carved with star marks, and the woman thought for a while, thinking that this should be a stargazing calendar, maybe they were looking at the stars to guide the farming?

If that's the case, you can only give back to the Gui Watch, but it has just moved in, and it will take a few years for the complete Gui Watch to be observed.

But there was nothing else like it, so the woman decided to make a piece of pottery, a watch without a scale.

The base is round, and there is a trace of the sun in the center, and the tribe worships the light and the sun, and also believes that the sky is round.

The surrounding area is engraved with south, south, west, and northwest, not words, but a few immovable stars and the sun and moon rising in the east and setting in the west, the only thing missing is the scale on the watch, which is not perfect, but she really can't think of anything to give back.

Once you've decided on the gifts, the rest will have to wait, and someone will prepare it all.

Eyue drew the idea of not moving the spear with ox blood on the silk silk, and pressed it with a jade wrench stained in blood. The wrench can not only hook the strings, but also have some patterns representing rights and their surnames on the front, which are extremely delicately carved, and the grooves of the hook strings are mixed with the logo of the surname, which is much better than Chen Jian's mark in this regard.

When these people were preparing the gifts, in the shack outside the house where Song and the others were recuperating from their injuries, Song was also asking about the gifts sent this time, and he was surprised.

He had never seen most of the things, such as the bronze mirror, but in just a month, he had missed so many things, so he wanted to go back even more.

But the rider shook his head and said, "Jian said, let you stay here for a while, learn from them, and see their tribe." ”

"Their tribe is different from ours, their things belong to individuals, not tribes."

"Ken said, write down any strange places you see, learn their words as soon as possible, talk to them more, but don't look at the places they don't want you to see."

Song smiled: "I won't go to see it, it's not that our tribe doesn't have nothing." Maybe if I'm a few months late, we'll have all the things they don't want me to see. ”

The clansmen laughed, comparing their lives with those of a few months ago.

After laughing for a while, Song frowned and said, "Then I won't go back for now, and learn from them." If they ask about our tribe, what shall I say? ”

"Anything can be said except copper smelting."

"I see."

After explaining all this, the rider took a large package from the back of the horned deer, and said, "Taste it, this is the taste of home prepared for you by Ken." We've never eaten it. ”

Song pinched out two pieces of nut candy with his fingers, filled one in his mouth and chewed it carefully, the crispy nuts mixed with the aroma of deer milk, and the unique sweetness of maple syrup made him smile.

"It's sweet, it's really home."

He carefully put away the piece of candy he hadn't eaten, and said to himself that he didn't know how long it would take to learn their words.

Maybe it's going to take a long time, and when you get homesick, take it out and lick it.

There are sweet foods here, but they don't always taste like home.
