When the sun rises, the moisture in the forest turns into a thick white mist, enveloping the forest in a milky white, and the morning breeze does not disperse the fog, but it awakens countless birds.

Chen Jian slept on the slate all night, and was so uncomfortable that he was woken up by the sister named Yu Qian'er.

Fortunately, the bonfire baked the stones warmly, otherwise I really wouldn't be able to bear it.

In primitive society, you don't have to wash your face and hands, which is very time-saving, but you still have to go to the toilet.

The wolves wandered around the toilet people, and it was not known if their definition of food was very different from that of their ancestors.

There is no paper, and Tu Qila can't accept it for a while, but fortunately, it is spring, and there are leaves.

In the cave, the old grandmother had already distributed today's food. The adult males were given a large piece of mutton, while the women ate some tubers.

After eating, more than 20 adult men were ready to hunt with stone axes and spears, and the women were also preparing for today's gathering.

Everything is for survival, which is the driving force behind the conquest of nature.

My cousin Wolfskin said that he saw a large herd of deer by the river in the distance a few days ago, and his goal today is to hunt that herd.

The old grandmother sprinkled a little bit of ash from the pyre on each of them before the men set out, perhaps a primitive prayer.

His mother tied the polished beast's teeth with bark and hung them around Jian Chen's neck, telling him to be careful of beasts and the like.

These people are blood relatives, but they are also almost reaching the limit of what the tribe can accommodate. If the population continues to swell without new ways to obtain food, it will soon be necessary for the tribe to separate the population.

Jian Chen carried the simple longbow he had made, took the few feathered arrows, and followed the group of cousins and uncles out of the cave.

The smell of rotten leaves fills the air, mixed with the scent of pine resin, which is somewhat intoxicating. The woodpeckers were tinkling on the trees, and the cuckoos were shouting to their aunt as they could, occasionally startling a few hares to flash by.

At the bottom of the hill is an open hilly meadow, where half-man-tall weeds grow tenaciously, and a simple path has been trodden.

Cousin Wolf Skin stared at the bow on Jian Chen's back, and finally couldn't help but ask, "Jian, what is in your hand?" ”

A group of cousins and uncles turned their heads to wonder what he was for. If it's a lucky charm, it seems a little too big.

Jian Chen explained, but no one understood what it was. Because there is no such thing as bow and arrow, many words cannot be explained.

The sound of the crowd chatting caused the grass to shake, and in the distance two fat strange birds cooed and flapped their wings.

Jian Chen made a boo gesture to the crowd and quietly walked into the barren grass.

The two fat strange birds were not too scared when they saw Jian Chen, they just kept a safe distance and moved slowly.

Chen Jian knew that there must be a bird's nest in the original location, and these birds that lay eggs on the ground would not flee immediately when they saw the enemy appear, but would choose to lure the enemy away to protect the nestlings in the nest, which was a reproductive instinct.

Looking at the two strange birds in front of him, Jian Chen was completely confused.

"Where the hell am I now?"

This bird is certainly not a chicken, it is more bloated and larger than a chicken, its wings are degraded, but it is very fast, and it makes a quirping sound.

The cousins and uncles looked at Jian Chen and let out a giggle laugh. This bird is not easy to catch, and it is difficult to catch up once it runs. Usually women will chase them away and look for eggs in the nearby grass piles, and it is not easy to catch them.

"This is Ken's first time hunting, and he will understand that hunting is not easy."

The eldest uncle expressed his opinion, but did not stop the curiosity of a hunter who had just become an adult, on the contrary, he was waiting to see Jian Chen's annoyed expression, this is the growth that any tribal hunter has to go through, and he understands that hunting depends on everyone.

It's just that Jian Chen's movements were different from what these relatives thought, and he tiptoed closer to a place ten meters away from the fat bird.

This distance was still a safe distance for a fat bird that had never seen a bow or arrow, so in order to protect the chicks in the grass in the distance, it kept shaking its vestigial wings and provoked, and the bird would flee if it got closer.

"Die, two roast chickens!"

Jian Chen smiled, because the simple feather arrow did not have a string groove, so he had to hook the bowstring with his thumb to clamp the feather arrow, put it on the right side, and quickly let go of his finger.

Airplanes......

The improvised wooden arrow flew a distance of ten meters and hit a fat bird directly. The fat bird screamed a few times and fell to the ground with its wings flapped.

The other one ran away, and sure enough, it had a bit of momentum to fly on the grass, and people couldn't catch up in a short time.

"Roaring ......"

The relatives in the back let out a cry of amazement, which was completely beyond their imagination, a handful of curved wood like the moon could make the branches fly out and shoot at the fat birds that were difficult to catch?

The people immediately gathered around, and the cousin wolfskin trembled and touched the rudimentary longbow, only to touch it, and quickly withdrew it as if it were an electric shock, muttering that he did not know what he was saying.

He didn't know what it was, probably because he was afraid that if he angered the gods inside, the wooden arrow would also pierce his heart, so that he would have the same fate as the fat bird.

An uncle ran over, picked up the big fat bird, and held it high, but careful not to touch the feathered arrows on it.

It's the first harvest of today's hunt and always a good sign.

"Healthy!"

"Healthy!"

The lack of words can only call his name to tell the joy in his heart. Anyway, there is one more hunter in the tribe who can hunt alone.

People surrounded Jian Chen, asking how everything that surprised them had happened.

"Bow! Arrow! ”

Chen Jian raised the weapon in his hand, named it after the name of the later generations, and said the words in a round tone, and the crowd shouted several times in a row with their tongues that were accustomed to vibrato, and finally pronounced the right sound.

Wolfskin pointed to the bow and arrow and asked what was going on, and Jian Chen gave an explanation in the style that best suited this barbaric era.

"In my dream, a voice told me that I could catch my prey."

"Who told you?"

People are curious about this, because they don't understand the existence of gods and spirits, and they just subconsciously feel that there is a power beyond nature, but they haven't created a primitive religion yet.

Jian Chen didn't answer immediately, but pondered it carefully. If the tribe expands in the future, this sentence I say today will definitely be of great significance.

So, he described: "In the dream, the thing resembled a bear, but it was black and white, and it ate a long branch. Taught him how to make a bow and arrow in a dream, and when he woke up, he disappeared......"

"Black and white? A bear eating a twig? ”

Everyone was surprised, they had never seen anything like this, and most of the bears they had seen were gray or brown.

Although they hadn't seen it, looking at the fat bird that was shot to death, this group of people immediately had an inexplicable admiration for this bear.

This is a gift to their tribe, it must be the ancestor of the tribe or some god who became that kind of bear after death, and the ancestors are protecting the tribe.

Looking at everyone's serious and almost pious discussion, Chen Jian couldn't help but laugh in his heart.

If your tribe really expands, the totem eight achievements of your tribe will be pandas in the future.

It's very simple to draw, just a piece of charcoal, a piece of white bark, and it's absolutely lifelike.

It's just that......

In case you encounter a tribal alliance of antlers, snake bodies, fish scales, and bird claws in the future, and your own tribe is also integrated into it, and it really forms a group with its own culture, then how will the totem of the tribe be added at that time?

A dragon with two dark circles on its head? Or is the scales a black and white intertwined round dragon that will sell cuteness?
