Chapter 5 Understanding the World
In fact, after countless assumptions, Li Jing thought that he could live here at least temporarily before he could have the possibility of returning home. Pen ~ Fun ~ Pavilion www.biquge.info When he woke up at dawn on the fourth day, Li Ming was awakened by the noise outside, and when the old man took him out, he generally understood that this morning, everyone was going to hold a welcome ceremony for him. There are also two strange old men, also like old people who take care of themselves, with strange tattoos on their faces. The ceremony was very lively, and everyone sang and danced as the sun slowly rose; During this period, the old man also took Li Ming to a platform, which seemed to be the same platform when Li Ming first arrived at this place that day, and everyone stopped, whether they were roaring and singing, or intoxicated with dancing. There was silence all around, and the old man said a bunch of words that Li Ming didn't understand at all, but Li Ming inadvertently had a feeling, as if after the old man finished speaking, everyone below had a faint awe of Li Ming, except for the two old men with tattoos on their faces.
The sun has finally risen, the welcome ceremony has finally ended, everyone has gone back to their own sheds, everyone has to work today, and there is a banquet in the evening; The old man sent the other two old men, as well as the men who seemed to be the bodyguards brought by the two old men, to return to the tribe for a long time, and Li Ming realized that the two old men were not from this tribe, but should be the heads of other tribes, shamans and the like. Li Ming followed Yueran wherever she went, as if she was afraid that he would sneak away, Li Ming signaled that she didn't have to follow her like this, but she didn't know if she didn't understand, or if following Li Ming was the task given to her by the old man, she always followed Li Ming and never left. It's also a shame that she has been following, and later she also saved Li Ming's life, don't look at his well-behaved and exquisite, until that time Li Ming didn't know that he had always thought that he was in good health, and he was afraid that two or three would not be enough to play, and when he was desperate, he was like a vigorous leopard, and his moves were fierce and deadly.
For a long time to come, Li Ming's main task was to learn a foreign language, and his mentor was Yue Ran. Li Ming also slowly learned that this is a primitive social tribe that exists only in history books, this tribe has a population of about 150 people, and lives by hunting and gathering wild fruits; Everyone works together and shares the fruits of their labor, and people only know their mothers, but it is difficult to know their fathers. Each tribe has a tribal chief, who not only tells everyone how to work, but also controls the distribution of the fruits of labor; The most important thing is that the tribal chief is in charge of the sacrifice, because each tribe has its own beliefs, and only the tribal chief can contact the gods that his tribe believes in, and the gods can protect everyone from the beasts and find the prey.
Yue Ran knew that there were three or four tribes nearby, but Yue Ran had never been to further afield, and when she was younger, Yue Ran had also been to the neighborhood to collect wild fruits; But later, Yue Ran's grandfather, that is, the tribal chief, no longer let Yue Ran go out of the vicinity of the tribe because he was afraid of being robbed by other tribes. Li Ming summed it up, there are three kinds of resources here, women, food, and production tools; Therefore, it often happens that women who are alone in other tribes are robbed, and even larger tribes will go to some small tribes to rob women, food, and production tools; And the production tools mentioned here are nothing more than some bone spears or something. It can also be traded between tribes, most of the time it is the trade of some food and production tools, of course, sometimes women can also be traded, especially some stolen women, which can be used to exchange food, production tools, etc. with other tribes. Xiao Yueran doesn't know much, fortunately, there is also Xiao Yueran's brother, that is, the young man with strong muscles, his name is yega, Li Ming calls it Yega, at this time Li Ming already knows some of this foreign language, and he also knows that yega is the meaning of the big tree, of course, he is much more wild than Li Ming saw in the TV series before, the little soldier Zhang Gake, who is known as Yegazi, is a good hunter.
Yega told Li Ming that there were about five tribes in this area, because he had only seen five tribesmen, and he had only been to four tribes, and his tribe was a very small tribe; He had been to a large tribe, the size of three of them. Yega also said that because of the small size of his tribe, the good hunting grounds are occupied by the big tribes, and there are tribes who come here at night to rob people and grab food; Their mother was robbed by other tribes when he was very young, and it was the tribal chief who brought them up. Yega looked up at the white clouds in the sky, "O cloud, you must bless me, bless me to be stronger, so that I can protect my relatives and let them not be hurt again." ”
Li Ming felt distressed for a while, what about his parents, his relatives; They can't find out how grief-stricken they are. Especially the parents, who worked hard to raise themselves until they were in their twenties, and they were about to graduate, but they left them at this time; and his girlfriend, who has been in a long-distance relationship for two years, is waiting for her appearance after graduation, but now she is leaving her in such a way, without saying a word of goodbye. Li Ming has been praying in his heart, hoping that this is a dream, even if he is worse than death in this world, but when he can wake up one day, he just had a long dream; Only such a solution is the best solution, but will the reality be the way people want it?
It's all my fault, more than 20 people, don't think about their parents, don't take into account their girlfriend's feelings, and must pursue that unattainable ideal......
The two big boys each thought about their own thoughts like this, and did not shed tears; But they all bleed secretly in their hearts. In fact, the most similar thing between people may not be language, nor faith, nor appearance; but from the heart, those most sincere emotions; In the past, in the future, in this world, or in another world. Just when Li Ming was infinitely emotional, he was confused by Yega's question.
