Chapter 6: The Man Who Masters the Heavenly Fire
The sacrificial cave was at the top of the slope, even half a position higher than that of the patriarch Black Mountain, and was guarded by the patriarch and the current captain of the hunting team, Xiong Da.
In fact, it is also very easy to understand, because only the priest has the knowledge of herbs to cure the wounded and sick, and in such a primitive tribe, there is really no major matter except life and death.
And it is precisely because of this that Yu Jing made such a decision.
A group of four people walked up the slope, although Yu Jing was the shortest in it, but fortunately, because of the injury, everyone acted according to his pace.
Ten minutes later, the four arrived at the cave where the sacrifice was held.
The sacrificial cave is about the size of a view, but it is not so empty, and there are some miscellaneous things in it.
Among them, in addition to the fur, what Yu Jingneng recognized was a palm-sized stone that was cherished and placed not far from the head of the sacrificial bed.
As far as I can remember, it was a block of rock, but it was a block of rock containing rock salt.
Yu Jing frowned slightly: "Rock salt seems to be slightly toxic because of excessive minerals and other reasons, and eating too much is not good for the body." ”
But this kind of rock salt is also an important means of replenishing the salt of the hunting team in the clan, and even according to memory, this rock cost two wild boars to get it.
The wild boar here is not only 40-60 kilograms like the modern wild, but the wild boar here is even larger, about 150 kilograms per wild boar.
And this one hundred and fifty kilograms is not the kind that is raised, but the kind with extremely tight muscles all over the body, hair like steel needles, and amazing fangs.
Such a wild boar has to take a detour when it is seen by modern lions and tigers, but in this way two wild boars can be exchanged for a palm-sized rock salt stone, you can imagine the preciousness of salt here.
"Fortunately, I still have a lot of salt in my kitchen, and I hope to support me to find new salt here." Yu Jingyan said to himself.
There were no chairs or tables in primitive societies, so everyone didn't have the habit of sitting down and talking, and as soon as they arrived at the cave, the three of them looked at Yu Jing and waited for him to speak.
Yu Jingshen took a breath, put away the messy thoughts in his mind, and raised the woodcutter in his hand between the three of them.
During this period, Xiong Da's eyes looked at the woodcutter without blinking, and his eyes were full of envy without a little greed.
Even the same is true of the side sacrifices and patriarchs Montenegro.
Even though these three people saw the sharpness and importance of the woodcutter, they did not have a trace of greed.
"The priest and the patriarch still want Xiong Da, I want to give the woodcutter to Xiong Da to use when hunting, but I have to return it to me after each use." Yu Jing said directly.
"Here, give it to me?" Xiong Da looked surprised and incredulous, and then hurriedly waved his hand and said, "No, no, this is given to you by the beast god, and I am not qualified to use it." ”
"Yes, this is given to you by the beast god, we can't use it." Montenegro also shook his head.
"Jing, will the beast god be blamed in this way?" The priest asked.
"Of course not, this knife belongs to me now, and I can't hunt, but Xiong Da can, with this knife I think he can get more prey for our Fire Tribe." Yu Jing shook his head, and then said affirmatively.
"If there is Jing's knife, I can shoot down the tiger I met today." Xiong Da said solemnly.
"That's why I want to give the knife to the bears when they're hunting." Yu Jing said affirmatively.
Seeing what the priest and the patriarch had to say, Yu Jing said directly: "Hunt more prey, our clansmen can eat more and give birth to more clansmen, so that our fire tribe can survive better." ”
The word Yu Jing uses is survival, and it is indeed survival, after all, this is a primitive society full of dangers.
This is also something that Yu Jing has considered since he took out the woodcutter.
First of all, Yu Jing has already faced up to the fact that he is also a waste wood with eight-pack abs and a height of one meter eighty-five in this primitive orc society, so the purpose of taking out the woodcutter is the best and most conducive to survival weapon that he has derived after combining his memory and his own observation.
Although Yu Jing couldn't use it himself, this sturdy woodcutter could bring a qualitative leap to the strength of the Fire Tribe's hunting team.
The biggest difference between humans and animals is that they use tools, and the best tool for hunting teams is the stone spear, which can cut or puncture some animals with less thick skin with great force.
But the effect is small, and with the woodcutter, plus Xiong Da himself is a bear, powerful, and can play better, for many animals, it is simply a blind eye.
And after getting more prey, Yu Jing naturally benefited, first of all, he would not starve again, although he had a lot of food in the kitchen, but it could not support him to eat for a long time, and opening up sources and reducing expenditure was the policy of survival.
The most important thing is that this woodcutter belongs to Yu Jing himself, and Yu Jing himself has experimented, and he can take back the things he took out of his kitchen at will, which naturally includes this woodcutter.
So Yu Jing did not hesitate to do this, also for the sake of being able to live a better life.
"In the future, all the prey will be selected by Jing first, and then distributed." The priest nodded in response, and then spoke directly.
"It's natural, and the scenery gives us hope to live." Montenegro nodded earnestly.
"Jing, tell me what kind of prey you like to eat, and I will definitely hunt it for you." Xiong Da was very direct, patting his chest and guaranteeing.
"Okay, next time I hope to hunt bison." Yu Jing said with a smile.
"No problem, I'll go tomorrow." Xiong Da responded directly.
"Hahaha, it's really the blessing of the beast god, so that we have people like Jing You." Montenegro's always fierce and serious face showed a big smile.
"Yes, I didn't expect Jing to be so powerful even though he can't hunt." Xiong Da scratched his head and said with a humble face.
"Jing, are you willing to be the next priest?" The priest looked at Yu Jing gently and asked directly.
"Yes." Yu Jing immediately nodded in response.
"Great, Jing is loved by the beast god, if he becomes the next sacrifice, our fire tribe will definitely be even more powerful in the future." Xiong said happily.
"Yes, I think that's the case." The priest nodded.
"Less sacrifice, I'll have someone dig the cave for you now, right next to the sacrifice." Montenegro went straight to arranging accommodation.
"Yes, Patriarch." Yu Jing said with a smile.
In fact, Yu Jing was going to say thank you, but remembered that there was no word thank you in the tribe, so he didn't say it, and responded directly.
"Xiong Da, you come to my cave every day before you set off to get this knife." Yu Jing turned his head and said to Xiong Da.
"Great, I'm not going to break it, I'm going to take care of it." Xiong Da's excited hand didn't know where to put it.
"yes, I know." At the head of the attraction.
"Let's celebrate with half a barbecue that night." Xiong Da excited about the proposal.
"The heavenly fire has been extinguished." Montenegro said in a deep voice.
As soon as these words came out, Xiong Da was silent.
In fact, the role of the heavenly fire is not only to roast meat and eat more delicious food, but also to deter those wild beasts and make them dare not invade the tribe.
In the month when the Heavenly Fire was extinguished, it can be said that the Fire Tribe was very dangerous, but there has been no thunderstorm at all recently, so it has not been able to ignite the Heavenly Fire again.
"Actually, I can light a heavenly fire." Yu Jing said.
