Chapter 72: Winter Bear's Decision
Before, Wang Chuan just thought that keeping the winter bear would be of great benefit, and these two news were reflected. Pen ~ fun ~ pavilion www.biquge.info
Because of the previous obstruction of the wolves, they had no contact with the Screaming Clan tribe two days away. Now that we know that they are starving, there is more room to operate. My mother just felt that the tribe was understaffed, and the tribe happened to have a batch of wolf meat and tiger meat that didn't know how to deal with it, how good a business was this?
For the information of the Vulcan tribe, Wang Chuan was even more interested. This tribe is probably the largest in the surrounding area. As the boss of the region, it exerts its influence to influence the development of the surrounding tribes. It exploited the surrounding small tribes through fire and salt, intermarriage, etc., and may also exercise control over the surrounding tribes through assassination. Such an organized and thoughtful tribe, Wang Chuan also wants to see it no matter what.
And the account that instructed Bihu to kill his mother should also be calculated with them.
Wang Chuan said: "You tell Winter Bear, we will also go to this market." ”
Bihu said indignantly: "If you don't go, I'll go by myself." "He was almost used as a gunman, how can this revenge not be avenged?
Wang Chuan said: "Now that you are the leader of our tribe, how could you let you go alone." When the time comes, we'll arrange for the men to kill their heads. ”
Bihu said: "But there are more than 300 of them. ”
There's no way to go on with the conversation. Wang Chuan just described it, and Bihu began to be more serious. At that time, the tribe can go up to twenty people. Twenty pairs of three hundred, even if there are iron tools, it is for nothing. Did you really kill them all?
Wang Chuan pretended to remember something to change the topic: "Yes, you and Dongxiong mentioned the matter of the calendar to see if he was interested." If he's interested, we'll get some hides and calendars to trick the idiots. ”
With a calendar, communication can't wait for a day like the next full moon. You can say that you have seen each other for the first time.
Bihu said: "The bark has already told him, but the winter bear doesn't seem to understand. ”
"Bark, idiot." As soon as Wang Chuan heard it, he knew what was wrong with what the bark said. If a person doesn't even accept the decimal system, it would be strange if you told him something about the first ten years of the first month, and he could understand it at once. The lunar calendar is also called the lunar calendar, and in ancient times, the moon was cloudy, and this calendar was produced in combination with the phases of the moon. When talking to these people about this, we should first abandon the concept of the fifteenth day of the new month, and explain to them the law of the change of the moon, and then talk about the arrangement of these days. This will make them understand quickly.
It seems that the showy nature of the bark has to be changed by him, otherwise he doesn't know when it will be bad.
But now that the bark has told the winter bear, the winter bear must have questions about this thing, and when the time comes, let the bark explain it with the diagram, and the winter bear should be able to understand.
The winter bear spent the night by the river outside the tribe, and was ready to leave after dawn. The two women of the tribe who lived in the abandoned cave also joined the team of Winter Bear with a vision of a new life. When Wang Chuan led the tribesmen to clean up the cowhide tent left by the winter bear, he also used a bamboo tube to pack the broth to bid farewell to the two sisters. Looking at the tearful look in her eyes, although these two people were abandoned by the tribe, there were still people who were worried about them.
Wang Chuan didn't finish watching the parting scene, and someone informed him that his mother had a bad cough and asked him to go back and take a look. Mother is naturally more important than these two women who don't know the future. He rushed back to the cave and checked his mother's pulse, but found that his mother was fine, but she had been sitting for a long time and her blood was a little uncomfortable.
After some tossing, Winter Bear and the others have already walked away. The tribesmen also returned to the fence. It's just that today there is no routine outing for a run, but all practice in the fence with various weapons.
Bihu also had a solemn face, looking at the direction of the winter bear leaving in the east.
Wang Chuan said: "There are merchants like Winter Bear in every era. They are driven by profits, and without interests, they generally do not act. Until he can't figure out the depth of our tribe, there shouldn't be any threat to our tribe. ”
Bihu said: "What if we lied to him? ”
Wang Chuan said: "It is normal to have mutual profits and losses in the exchange, as long as it is ...... at that time."
Halfway through his speech, he thought about the situation of Qiao's farewell to the two daughters with broth, and the abnormal atmosphere now. He wasn't the only one who could use this kind of thing.
"You poisoned them?" Wang Chuan's face changed, and he raised his leg to rush out of the fence.
Leaving the two daughters in the tribe is like leaving a thorn in the flesh in the tribe. Human nature is ugly, in this era of no prison forgiveness, in the case of the growing strength of the tribe, maybe one day the two girls will be tortured to death by the inflated pride of the tribesmen. In Wang Chuan's view, they are just irrelevant family members, and being involved is already considered the ignorance of this era, and to be killed he feels that it is really contrary to his previous outlook on life. Hence the idea of exchanging them.
As for the losses caused to the tribe by exchanging them, Wang Chuan also considered it. They have not been in the tribe for a long time, and after joining in, they have been collecting and working from time to time, and the things they know may only be a little bit of a star, and with their ability to express and understand, it is good that they can explain the things of the tribe clearly, and it is not very likely that they will reveal any technology.
The only thing that could be a threat is that they will divulge the fact that the tribe has iron pottery and reveal the location of the salt mines. These can pose a risk to the tribe. However, as long as the strength of the tribe develops steadily, these things can be slowly ignored.
Bihu stopped him and said, "It's too late." He has personally experienced the power of the Broken Intestine Grass, and has seen the situation after the wolf is poisoned, so he naturally knows the poison time of the Broken Intestine Grass better than ordinary people.
Qiao came and said: "Huo Yanzi, the poison was placed by me, and I bear any sin alone." I just don't want these two immature white-eyed wolves to go out and talk nonsense, ruining our current life. ”
The hungry tribesmen are more resolute in maintaining their current lives than Wang Chuan thought. Now whoever stands on the opposite side of the tribe is afraid that they will be torn apart without hesitation. Wang Chuan sighed and didn't say anything more. His soft-heartedness killed two innocent women. This made his heart panic. Let people go later to see if their bodies are still there, and if they are, dig a pit and bury them. So he went back to the cave and silently cut the hides and drew a calendar.
Or, he only exchanged two women for a few useless tents, which was anticipating the current situation. Who can say this clearly?
Winter Bear sat on his sleigh and let his men pull it on the ice. After walking a short distance, he asked a woman from the River tribe to sit next to him and began to talk casually about family life.
"When I came yesterday, I saw that your tribe was very smoky. What are you burning? Winter Bear asked.
The woman, with a yearning for a new life, naturally said nothing: "They are boiling salt." ”
"Boiling salt?" The winter bear almost jumped, and the sound was a little louder. He guessed that this river tribe must have a lot of secrets, and he didn't expect that the first one he heard would be enough to shock him.
The woman winced a little, and tried her best to explain: "There is a very clever boy in our tribe, named the Fire Lady, who can find a stone and boil salt out of it. ”
"What stone? How do you boil salt? The winter bear almost roared. Salt was his sharpest commodity in the area, and he couldn't help but be anxious. He naturally had to understand everything about this boiling salt.
The woman winced even more, stammering about the location of the salt mine, the process of boiling salt, and so on. As Wang Chuan guessed, the woman's expression was problematic, and only God knows whether Dong Xiong could cook salt according to what she said.
Winter Bear found that this time was a bit too much. This woman said that boiling salt should be boiled for firewood and stirring, and when the lichen was stuffed into the bamboo tube, the blood of the walking man ran fast, and another woman from the river tribe had already fallen on the ice with a bone, foaming at the mouth.
Winter Bear tried to relax as much as he could, pressed the woman's head to prevent her from turning to look at the situation behind her, and asked, "What else do you have besides boiling salt?" Did that clay pot really come from heaven? ”
The woman's face turned pale, but she answered the question, "No." The fireman can make fire, he can use fire, he can use fire to burn wood, to burn clay, to burn stones......"
The woman began to twitch, her tone was no longer coherent, the pain in her abdomen made it almost difficult for her to breathe, and white foam unconsciously flowed out of her mouth.
Winter Bear picked up a stone spear and stabbed it fiercely at the woman, hoping to use more pain to make the woman more sober, and then asked, "What else?" How to burn firewood, burn clay, burn stones? What is he burning all this for? ”
"And ...... He also raised elephants and wolves...... The elephant...... But it's obedient......" The woman didn't know what she thought of in the end, and a smile appeared on her face.
The Winter Bear fell silent. The woman who traded a few cowhide tents, he didn't have too high expectations. He guessed at the time that the two women were either wild people in the mountains or a dying injury. That's why he asked them all kinds of questions as soon as he came out. But the tribe's methods were beyond his expectations.
"Chief, shall we kill back?" Said his men.
"No, I remember the kid saying that cheap is not good. The woman who traded a few tents told me enough. Anyway, we will meet them soon, and if we can't give us a satisfactory answer at that time, we will make plans. ”
What is an elephant? Raising wolves? Could it be that they are even more powerful than the Howling Clan, raising all the wolves in this vicinity? Now Winter Bear's mind is full of questions. However, he understands that the more things he does not understand in this tribe, the higher the value of what can be exchanged. If you rush back, you will only suffer greater losses.
Thinking of the scene of dozens of wolves rushing in, he felt cold on his body.
