Chapter 39: Barbarians in sackcloth
Long Qiupeng shouted: "Someone! "Let the deer and bear bring people to meet them. Pen, fun, pavilion www. biquge。 info
At this time, an arrow suddenly came out of the ground, Long Qiupeng hurriedly dodged and fell to the ground, and then three people jumped out of the grass nest, two people ran in different directions, and another person dressed as a barbarian jumped up, just riding on Long Qiupeng's body, and was pressed under himself by Long Qiupeng. He held an axe and slashed at Long Qiupeng.
Fortunately, Long Qiupeng's upper body strength was not weak, and the other party failed to succeed, and the two of them each grabbed a part of the axe and confronted each other.
The person riding on Long Qiupeng yelled at the deer and the bear, and the two rescuers who came to rescue stopped there, Long Qiupeng didn't listen and knew that this person was shouting nothing more than that, don't come here, I'll kill him if you come over or something like that.
But Long Qiupeng didn't expect the deer and bear to save him at all now, he raised his head and looked at the lookout tower dozens of meters away, where Yi was pointing this way with an arrow.
At such a distance, Long Qiupeng couldn't see whether the other party was aiming or not, and whether he was trembling as usual, so he waited while holding the opponent's axe with his hand.
The deer and bear stood far away, not daring to act rashly, but kept saying something, trying to calm the emotions of the barbarians. And Long Qiupeng felt that his strength was disappearing little by little in the struggle, and he saw that the axe was moving inch by inch in front of his eyes.
"Hurry up and shoot!" Long Qiupeng had less and less spare energy to look at Yi on the lookout tower, so he could only hold back his last strength and shout loudly.
But after waiting for a long time, he didn't wait for the barbarians on his body to fall to the ground. Long Qiupeng sighed silently in his heart, and then he suddenly exerted force on his waist and pushed the barbarian riding on him out at once, and before the other party could reflect what was going on, Long Qiupeng kicked the barbarian to the ground from behind.
Then he jumped and pressed the other party under him, he skillfully twisted the barbarian's arm behind his back, and the axe was also snatched away by him and thrown far away.
Long Qiupeng, like King Kong, clamped the barbarian tightly until Xiong came to him and tied up the barbarian, and then looked at the two barbarians who had escaped just now, and they were also escorted back from the other side by the clansmen.
"Back to the tribe!" Long Qiupeng gave an order, except for a small number of people to stay and clean up the grass nest and check if there were any other mysteries. The others followed Long Qiupeng and escorted the three barbarians towards the tribe.
Along the way, the clansmen sang with great interest about Long Qiupeng's wisdom and martial arts, but Long Qiupeng glanced in the direction of the watchtower, and the arrow was shot, but it seriously deviated from the due track, and the arrow pierced a place far away from the "main battlefield", and Yi disappeared.
But at a time like this, Long Qiupeng didn't have time to worry about Yi's affairs, he overwhelmed the three barbarians in the council hall and prepared to interrogate.
However, everything is not as simple as imagined, no matter how the three of them ask, they are silent, not at all like an uncivilized barbarian, more like a civilized trained makeup scout.
When Long Qiupeng observed their weapons up close, he also found that their bronze axes seemed to have a simple manufacturing process, but if he looked closely, he found that the other party did it on purpose, but in fact, the core process can be described as fine and advanced.
But in the end, what made Long Qiupeng confirm the identity of the other party was that one of the barbarians also wore a linen cloth under the leather coat, the raw materials of the linen clothes were relatively pure in that era, and the linen cloth was decently woven. Needless to say, even the Long tribe doesn't have a decent textile industry, let alone a primitive person who drinks blood.
"The Hill Tribe?" Long Qiupeng said suddenly, although he could deduce that the other party was from a relatively advanced civilization at that time, but he didn't know who was on the ground nearby, and all he could think of was the Qiutu tribe.
So when the words came out of his mouth, he came out casually. Sure enough, one of the three people had a brief reaction to this term, and the expression of the guessed thought was revealed on his face.
Knowing this general direction, the rest is dispensable for Long Qiupeng, and he explained this matter to Xiong: "From the Qiutu tribe, let's try it, how much can I judge." ”
With that, he turned around and left. Because the details in the middle are no longer important, Long Qiupeng doesn't trust the Qiutu tribe, and the Qiutu tribe also doesn't trust Long Qiupeng, and the war may start at any time.
Long Qiupeng silently in his heart, deleted the work of finding someone to arrest people, and labeled the plan to attack the Qiutu tribe as important and urgent.
Leaving the council chamber, he turned his head and went to the pottery center, where the model of the pottery bow should have been almost successfully fired.
He went all the way to the pottery center and met the big lake that was waiting for the pottery fan to be baked. When Long Qiupeng asked, he knew that his bow handle needed about the same firing time because the pottery fan that Dahu was going to make was about the same, so a furnace was burning together.
Wait a little longer and it will be baked.
While waiting, Long Qiupeng told Dahu about what happened today, but Dahu was far away from the military center, so he didn't seem to be too interested in listening to it. Dahu reported to Long Qiupeng on the improvement and manufacture of traditional bronze weapons, and some of them had been handed over to Xiong's subordinates to equip the Long army.
Long Qiupeng talked to Dahu about Yi for a while, but before he finished speaking, Tao Fan and the bow handle came out together.
When Dahu saw the bow handle in Long Qiupeng's hand, the whole person was stunned, he couldn't imagine what such a thing would do.
Long Qiupeng first grabbed it and tried it himself, then put the bow in the hand of the track deer, and finally handed it to Dahu. Dahu did not try it out like Long Qiupeng and the deer, but turned around and observed. While looking at it, he said to himself, "This, what does it have to do with the bow?" ”
The deer was on the side, looking at the lake expectantly, hoping that he could explain to him what this thing does. However, Dahu, who has always been smart, did not succeed this time. After all, this is only a part of the bow and arrow, and without the bow and blade bowstring, I am afraid that people who have not seen archery may not be able to recognize what it is, let alone these inexperienced primitive people.
However, it was precisely because Dahu couldn't guess how to use this thing at all that Long Qiupeng came up with the idea of keeping it a secret for the time being, no matter how Dahu and the deer looked at him with pitiful eyes, Long Qiupeng pretended to turn a blind eye.
Dahu and a few craftsmen got together and chatted for a long time, but it seemed that no one had seen it, and they couldn't imagine the real use of this thing. Long Qiupeng explained that Dahu would design a pottery fan according to this model as soon as possible, and try to cast a few bow handles.
But he had no intention of getting involved in the discussion. He watched the group discuss for a long time like a child, but there was no progress, so he walked away proudly.
The problem of the bow handle was solved, so the problem of the bow piece was also on the agenda, so Long Qiupeng hurried to the river non-stop. In such a large and complex family, she is the only one big logistician, although Xi does not have much physical labor, and rarely participates in the production activities of the female dependents, and even the work of pharmaceutical treatment is gradually taught to others and let others do it, but her work intensity is not smaller than others.
When Long Qiupeng came to Xi's residence, Tao Mu was cleaning up a pile of pottery shards engraved with records, and Xi was already asleep on the side.
Just like Dahu has become Long Qiupeng's right-hand man, Tao Mu has been following Xi since he came to the tribe to help her do some things. Long Qiupeng glanced at Tao Mu, and Tao Mu whispered: "I was busy all night yesterday, so I fell asleep." ”
Long Qiupeng felt a little distressed when he heard this, Xi has been asking Lu to take good care of himself, but he is too busy to take care of anything. Long Qiupeng deeply felt that this was his dereliction of duty as a leader and a dereliction of duty as a man.
Seeing that Tao Mu wanted to wake up Xi, Long Qiupeng hurriedly stopped him and motioned for her to sleep a little longer. He turned his head and whispered to the deer: "I won't look for you in the future, so you can stay and help your sister more." ”
"No need, sort ......it out quickly" Long Qiupeng had already lowered his voice as much as possible, but it seemed that he still woke up the hostess here. Although it can't compare to his younger brother's amazing language talent, but after a long time together, Xi still learned Long Qiupeng's language faster than others.
She got up and walked over and weighed Long Qiupeng a bowl of yellow-green soup. Long Qiupeng subconsciously said: "Tea? ”
But as soon as he tasted it, Long Qiupeng realized that he was thinking too much, if Yi was really the ancestor of his hometown, then this dimension was still a bit high, in the modern era where the cultivation technology was very developed, there was no tea planting, let alone a distant era.
This yellow-green "tea soup" is just made by soaking the leaves of a certain plant, and although it does not have the taste of tea, it still has a more mellow taste than ordinary boiled water. It could be some kind of herb used by the creek for health care.
Xi saw that Long Qiupeng liked it, so he ordered Tao Mu to wrap some and let the deer take it away later. Then he turned to Long Qiupeng and said, "I have already explained the matter of Yi." ”
"I know. Otherwise, he wouldn't have been on the watchtower. Long Qiupeng put down the bowl, Chongxi smiled, and said, "However, I'm not here for his business, I came here to see the wood in stock, and I want to make some new bows and arrows." ”
Hearing about Long Qiupeng's intention, Xi Er didn't say a word, so he got up and walked out, preparing to take them to investigate on the spot.
There are not many words along the way, she is careful and considerate, but she is not gentle, and she still maintains the shrewdness and strength of her leader era in her work. Long Qiupeng didn't dare to imagine that if she was married by someone from another tribe, it would be a great loss for the Long tribe.
