The women of the tribe began to learn to tailor clothes after dinner, and the men polished stone tools or studied knots and the like. The children of Pen & Fun & Pavilion www.biquge.info used to gather around Wang Chuan and listen to him talk about some novel things.

They were asked to recognize a few words and checked the counting they had been taught earlier, and most of the children didn't have the heart to listen to these boring things. In contrast to these, they prefer to listen to stories and listen to songs.

There are not many stories and songs suitable for these listeners, and their strong curiosity will not stop if Wang Chuan is not annoyed, and they don't have the patience to explain today, so they still don't talk about these things with content.

They love to listen to stories, nothing more than yearning for new worlds. Listening to songs is the pursuit of regular melodies. This need for regular beauty comes from the depths of the soul, and it is said that the earliest songs and dances were used for prayer and sacrifice, which shows how high it was attached.

They love the beauty of rhythm, and singing is just one of them. The rhythm of the instrumental performance is also satisfying. If you don't have a musical instrument, you can make do with a few bowls with some water. It is impossible for these pottery to make the sound of gold and jade, but the sound of striking such a novelty is different from the sound of hitting stones, trees, bamboo, etc. It's enough to fool them.

Sure enough, after knocking out a regular sound of "ding-dong, ding-dong" on the side of a bowl filled with different waters, the people listened to it with great intoxication. After a few strokes like this, the children went to bed with satisfied expressions.

The tribe slowly formed some new habits, such as these activities after meals, such as checking the harvest brought back by each mother before meals.

In the past, the tribe had little harvest, and it was seen at a glance, and there was no need to check it. Now that I have gained a lot, I need to check it out. Nowadays, the food in the tribe is basically full, but there are always times when merit is awarded, such as who wears a relatively complete animal skin, who chooses a large piece of meat when eating, and who can dip a little more salt and frost stored by the mother.

On this day, my mother checked the harvest routinely, and after praising a few men, she also praised a few women because they brought back a few large potato pieces. Then she found that there were two less rattan baskets, and she was very careful to find that the less was the stronger basket made by Wang Chuan. This made her fall in love.

With rattan baskets, the harvest of the women's collection has increased a lot, and the variety of fruit stems and tubers collected has also increased a lot. In the past, when there was no basket, they were all picked up large pieces and wrapped with rattan branches to get back, and the small ones could only be eaten on the spot or wrapped a little back with broken animal skins, otherwise they would not be collected, and now they can be brought back regardless of the size, which has increased a lot of harvest invisibly.

During the meal, the mother asked about the basket, and the women said that they had met people from the dolphin tribe and exchanged them for them. Those few pieces of potato were exchanged.

"Where did you meet them?" Mother looked serious.

Although there is no such thing as a boundary in this era, in fact, everyone is territorial. There is only so much food produced in one place, and the place you often go to naturally can't let others come over and touch it, or your own food will be less. The place where women frequented Ah Mu knew that if she met people from the Dolphin Tribe in these places, it meant that the people from the Dolphin Tribe had crossed the line. This, of course, is not allowed.

It's about other tribes, and this kind of news doesn't happen a few times a year, and everyone listens to it with curiosity. Wang Chuan also pricked up his ears. Seeing that his mother was nervous, he felt that things might not be so simple. Unless the two tribes exchange materials, there will be no intersection for a year, so it can be seen that the "territory" on both sides is still some distance, and now they suddenly meet, I am afraid that something has happened over there or the tribe's people have gone far.

Qiao took over the conversation and said, "I want to talk to you about this." I met them on the side of the fallen tree to the north, in the col of many ferns. We didn't go there much, and when we saw the footprints of wild boars, we wanted to make a trap over there, and we saw them. ”

Qiao may be the reason for her background, she is indeed smarter, and at the same time, she is also a rare person in the tribe who is articulate and articulate. In the cave, Wang Chuan and she may be the only ones who noticed the change in her mother's expression, so she said, "I want to talk to you about this". From these words, Wang Chuan also saw some of the subtle relationships between mothers-in-law and daughters-in-law in later generations.

To the north of the big fallen tree, the tribesmen who passed the conefruit grove did not go much, and the col of many ferns should be regarded as the middle ground, so forget it. Auntie's expression softened and asked, "How are they?" ”

Qiao said: "It's not good, they are all thin, saying that Ang Ang went to their tribe, and they wanted to hunt, but instead led Ang Ang to their cave." Aung Ang killed many of their men, as well as their elders, ate the potatoes they were preparing for the winter, and the cave was also destroyed, and he did not go to the god of fire before he could ask the god of fire. It's all cold. ”

"Oh?" Everyone has relatives.

This kind of thing, Wang Chuan thought it was an elephant. This animal was later found in the wild in the mountains and forests of the south. Although this age is colder than later generations, it is not surprising that the animals of this era have a stronger migration ability and are more widely distributed. It's just that what he doesn't understand is that when Ah Mu said that they would pass in the west some time ago, he felt that they should be going south, and now they should swim across the Taijiang River for the winter, how could they stay here in such a cold weather? Now is the period of the Xiaoice River, it will be colder than the future life, combined with the memories of previous years, it will not be long before frost or even snow, aren't these elephants afraid of cold?

Or are these not elephants? Wang Chuan was skeptical.

Qiao continued to talk about seeing the dolphin tribe: "They said that the dolphins on their side were all driven away by Aung Ang, and now they can't hunt them, and they can only dig potatoes for the winter, but the food they have prepared now is not enough to come to us." They also asked about their mother, and the largest piece of potato was offered to you. ”

Wang Chuan remembered that his mother had said that this dolphin tribe lived by eating potatoes and hunting wild boars. Now the wild boar is gone, and the stored grain is for Aung Ang to eat, and the cave is still broken, and there is no fire, which shows that his life is difficult.

He also went to look at the so-called potatoes, and saw a few black stems that might weigh more than a dozen pounds and were missing a corner, and found that this thing was very similar to the potatoes of later generations. There are too many lumps in the potato meat, and it is rarely eaten in later generations, and it is said that this thing was used as a dye in later generations.

"When they saw us, they asked us if we had gone to ask the god of fire and why we hadn't passed by them." Qiao continued: "We said that we had fire, and then they looked at our ...... They said they wanted to change their clothes and baskets with us, but they didn't dig much of the potatoes, so they changed the baskets and didn't give them clothes...... They also asked us if we would like to marry now, and if we did, if we could exchange people for meat, and we said that we were going to have meat for the winter. ”

When it comes to "clothes", Qiao is also a little unfamiliar with this new word.

Now the people of the tribe go out, in addition to sticks and stone tools, they generally bring baskets, nets, ropes and other things, women's skirts, men's vests are also basic equipment, and after fighting insects, they eat twice a day, almost all of them are meat, and everyone is stronger. When you meet a neighbor and show off your own food, this kind of thing should have been around since ancient times. Encounters between the two tribes should not have been avoided. At this time, it is estimated that there is no such thing as "borrowing", and it is the best way to send your hard-working children over to enjoy happiness, and by the way, exchange some food for the winter.

However, the question that the grandmother is concerned about is obviously much higher: "Their old man is dead?" ”

"Yes."

Mother looked down, not knowing what she was thinking. After half a day, he made a decision: "You can marry them, and one person can change the fire." Or one person for food carried by two people. One back of meat, the other back of fruit. You can have as many people as you want. ”

This has the meaning of pity for the old neighbor. At the same time, the tribe began to eat well, and the problem of insufficient personnel was also highlighted.

In this way, the problem of the object of a few half-grown children in Wang Chuan's eyes was solved, and there was no need to go to the distant Vulcan Department to intermarry. And it's more labor-saving than going to the Vulcan Ministry.

However, based on the worst speculation about human nature, Wang Chuan has some different ideas. Whether human nature is good or evil, human beings are always animals of profit, and I believe that this will not change just because it is a prehistoric era.

When the poor neighbor is ruined, has nothing and has nowhere to go, but his neighbor suddenly becomes rich, and at the same time there is no other external force to restrain him during this period, except to send his children to enjoy happiness and exchange some food for himself to go back to suffer, Wang Chuan feels that the most likely thing to happen is to rush in while the rich neighbor is not paying attention, kill all his family, and then occupy his food and house......

This kind of malice of human nature generally occurs only when there is no external force to control it. It's just that now is the right time to do this.

Of course, Wang Chuan understands the truth that people are difficult to dismantle, so he didn't tell these primitive people who were already struggling to survive with such extreme ideas. He just told his mother that in a few more days, the crocodiles might have to dig holes and hibernate, and it was best to leave some people in the tribe to catch more crocodiles every day. At the same time, those who go out should be careful, Aung Ang may run after the people of the Dolphin Tribe to our side.

Mother thinks so, in her opinion, the more food, the better, if you can't hunt crocodiles later, it's best to hunt more now. The Howler said that crocodiles will dig holes to hibernate, so they will definitely dig holes to hibernate.

After saying this, Wang Chuan said to the adults of the tribe that there are beasts roaring and apes crying near the tribe at night at night, and this should also be food, but they only approach us at night, and we can put traps on all the roads and trees around us during the day. Just wake up in the morning and take a look. And it doesn't matter if they don't have a net, so it's unlikely that they'll come to our cave at night to steal meat and eat it.

The adults also said that although there would be a vigil in the cave, it would still be a troublesome thing if the beasts rushed in and grabbed it while people were unprepared.

With the urine nature of these people who would set up all the traps on one road, Wang Chuan could predict that around the tribe, a huge defensive network with two layers of inner and outer layers would slowly take shape.
