Chapter 47: Look down on the primitives

Mammoths were creatures that lived for millions of years during the Ice Age, and their ability to withstand the cold was incomparably strong. At the same time www.biquge.info its wide soles are also more suitable for walking on ice and snow.

After putting on the reins of the leash, Wang Chuan stood on the sleigh and let the baby elephant pull easily, followed the open road up the hill, and then released the reins and slid down the mountain like a race with the baby elephant, which felt no less than any mountain skiing.

The problem of more monks and less meat is common among tribes. In previous years, the children, who could only huddle in the cave and shiver, enjoyed the fun of snow for a rare time, and were naturally even more curious about the activity of skiing. At this time, even if Wang Chuan was quite prestigious among the tribe, he could not be offended. So let them line up in an order from childhood to adulthood and play one by one.

In exchange, those who slide through the snow spontaneously go to tree roots or grass roots to feed the baby elephants, and the baby elephants cannot be pulled in vain.

The only child in the tribe who is not interested in this game is the strong cow. He was standing on the passage outside the fence, learning archery with Bihu.

Bihu's bow is finally ready. With a bow sharpened with iron knives, it was better than anything he had ever seen. The tendons of the mammoth are tougher and more elastic than those of various other animals, and the bowstring is made from the long hair of the mammoth, which makes the bow look excellent and powerful.

When the bow was fired, the sound of the arrow breaking through the air was terrifying. Equipped with an iron arrow, the arrow still trembled when it shot into the trunk of a tree a hundred meters away.

The strong bull coveted the bow, but he had too little strength to pull it. Bihu gave him a softer bow that he had made during the trial. Except for the smaller bow body and smaller tension, this bow is not much different from the one in Bihu. When it is full, it can also shoot into the trunk of the tree within 50 meters. This is much better than the previous bamboo bow. It's just that the strong ox lacks archery, and it is difficult to shoot at a big tree with a thick waist at fifty meters. He's practicing right now.

Wang Chuan admired the practice of the two fierce men. No matter which bow it was, he couldn't pull it, so he just watched, and didn't go to look for humiliation. He prefers a crossbow that is easy to fire over a powerful weapon like a bow. Now that Bihu has experience in making strong bows, it's still very good to go back and get the design out and get a crossbow arrow to defend himself.

After watching the two practice for a while, he was ready to go back and call the children back to the cave. These children don't know the power of the cold, and if they play for a long time, it's not good to catch a cold when the time comes.

Just then, a man who had gone out to the river stumbled back and shouted, "Bad thing, bad thing." ”

Wang Chuan stopped and asked, "What's wrong?" "The crocodiles in the river have hibernated this season, and they won't move much when they dig up. In the past few days, the river has not been completely frozen, and people may fall, but the river is not in a hurry, and if they fall, they can save it, and they will not run back. Could it be that there is something else that is dangerous?

"Tooth injury, tooth, injury, he ......" The person who came ran in a hurry, couldn't get up in one breath, and didn't say a word.

"Don't rush, speak slowly. What happened to the tooth injury? Wang Chuan patted him on the back and told him to relax.

Wang Chuan felt bad in his heart. He remembered that there were six or seven of them who had gone out, and in addition to the tooth wounds, there was also his father, and there seemed to be two newcomers who were striking iron. They said that their legs were good, and they also went to the river to have a look. They all took iron net ropes, and they should be able to cope with any danger they encounter. Now that something is wrong, is it the conflict between the new and the old?

The man slowed down, still pale: "Tooth wound, murder, said he was leaving the tribe......"

Wang Chuan was stunned for a moment, this incident was completely unexpected by him.

Bihu jumped up next to him and asked, "How can this be?" But who bullied him? ”

He was well-informed and knew that it was common for old people in the tribe to bully new people.

The man trembled a little, almost unable to stand, and cried: "I don't know how this happened, we went to the other side of the river, and we didn't see a suitable crocodile hole, and they said they wanted to come back, but they said they couldn't come back, and they said they would go with iron tools, and Kuan and Lian Rabbit said no, and they killed people." When I saw that they were red-eyed, I hurried back. They're chasing me......"

Wang Chuan was as if he had been doused with cold water, and he became anxious: "My father is dead? ”

The man said: "When I looked back when I left, Kuan was not dead, as if he had been taken captive by them. But even the rabbit died, and his head was cut off......"

Bihu was furious: "I'm going to kill these little cubs!" So saying, he quickly took the arrow from the trunk of the tree, and took the bow and was about to chase after the river.

Wang Chuan heard that his father was not dead, but he calmed down a little and stopped Bihu and said: "Sharpen the knife and don't chop wood, Bihu, don't be impulsive." Let's prepare, it's not necessarily slower than rushing now. ”

Bihu asked: "They are running farther and farther, how to prepare?" ”

Now that the tribe is not short of food and clothing, it is the time to develop and grow, and such a thing actually happened, which really made Bihu feel angry. If this matter is left unattended, how will the tribe grow to a thousand people in the future? However, although he was angry, he obeyed Wang Chuan's words and did not chase after him.

Wang Chuan said: "Hewan is not close to here, and after walking back and forth like this, they will go further." The snow is thick and difficult to walk, and if we only rely on walking to chase this part of the road, we may not be able to catch up with them before dark. If they haven't caught up before dark, tomorrow maybe the wind and snow will cover their footprints, and there is no need to chase them. ”

"So how do you chase it?" The reason is better than the tiger, but he can't think of the method.

Wang Chuan asked the children to go back to the cave first, and let Zhuang Niu go to the nearby to call people. He called the baby elephant over, took his skis at the same time, and said, "Use this to chase it." And baby elephants...... Now you do a few of these first, make them bigger, and don't need to be too delicate. Just be sturdy. Do a good job and we'll go. ”

Than the tiger's eyes shine. Skis were a thing that could really walk briskly on the snow, but he didn't expect to use them here. Hurriedly found an axe and wood to chop it, Wang Chuan's skis were originally made by him according to Wang Chuan's wishes. Now it's a no-brainer. Split the plank, sharpen the front, and dig a hole in the top.

Wang Chuan tied a few more reins to the baby elephant, took a large piece of potato and fed it, patted its head and said, "Idiot, it's all up to you in a while." If you do your best, you will have something to eat when you come back. If you drop the chain halfway through, you will eat your meat when you come back, understand? ”

The baby elephant didn't know if he understood it, and chewed the potato in his mouth and ate happily.

After calling the people around her back, Grandma also stood at the entrance of the cave, and she was even more furious. In the past so many spring and autumn years in the tribe, nothing like this has ever happened, and they killed each other for a few iron tools, and dared to flee the tribe in winter? This is the prosperity of the heavens! I don't know the bravery of the warriors of my tribe!

Afraid that her mother would be angry and break her body, Wang Chuan persuaded her to go back, telling her that the heads of several people would be brought back before dark, and there was no need to be angry with a few clowns who jumped off the beam.

When he came to Zhuangniu's side, Wang Chuan was a little embarrassed and said, "When everyone goes out, you still have to stay in the tribe." If they come back, don't let them into the cave until the other adults come back. ”

The baby elephant basically only listens to him, so he has to go, but the strong ox is a little unnecessary. Now that there are many adults in the tribe, there is no need to let the strong bull take risks.

Zhuang Niu held the bow and arrow in his hand to show that he understood, and then stuffed jerky into his arms, saying: "When they went out before, the son with a tooth injury also followed, and he also stuffed jerky into his arms, I am afraid that he had already prepared." ”

Wang Chuan remembered the matter of concealing the iron artifact from the tooth injury, and knew that they had been prepared for a long time. I was really careless this time, I looked down on the people of this era, and I always thought that they were simple-minded, and I didn't expect to be put together.

He took a few more pieces of dry lichen from the cave and went out, and the people outside were ready. Everyone took weapons and spears, and was full of anger. Wang Chuan divided the people into two groups, one group stepped on skis and skied over with the reins of the baby elephant. A group walked behind to support.

Wang Chuan jumped on the back of the baby elephant, grabbed its long fur and patted it on the shoulder: "Drive!" The baby elephant screamed and rushed outside with a few skis.
