Chapter 17: The Primitive Faction
"So, I have decided to share this secret with you and try to increase your prestige! I know you're up to the task! Until we establish a truly safe base or complete our mission to rendezvous with those who preceded it. β
"Why me?!" Li Ling shook his head and smiled bitterly. "Maybe Kurban is more suitable as your deputy! He seems to have an insatiable passion. β
"Originally, this was the secret I was going to take to the grave, but it seems that I can't keep it!" Ge Jin cracked his mouth and laughed, and then said with some reluctance: "Because in the ring match, you defeated me!" β
Li Ling thought a little and said suspiciously: "I remember that you finally threw me out of the ring several feet away. β
"Well, maybe you've forgotten, maybe you're deliberately laughing at me! But I'll admit that once you hit me in the head, I was stunned for a while, but luckily you didn't take advantage of the opportunity to attack, but waited for a while. It was only then that I turned defeat into victory. β
"Well, it looks like you're serious." Li Ling was not as excited as Ge Jin imagined, and asked rhetorically, "What are you going to do?" Is there a viable plan? β
"Of course there is, and it's easy! Hold your ground first, and then slowly find out the news of the forerunners. Calculating the time, the pioneers have only been here for hundreds of years, and it is estimated that they will not be able to achieve anything amazing without any foundation. When the time comes, it may not be clear who will lead whom! β
"But now?" Li Ling admired Ge Jin's courage more and more.
"Right now...... I'm going to give a great presentation right away! Come with me! I don't want to repeat it twice! As he spoke, he strode back.
Ge Jin walked to the center of the crowd and raised his hands in the air. He doesn't need to stand on a high platform at all to let everyone see his tall and strong self.
Knowing that he had something to say, the crowd quieted down.
"I once read an article written by an expert!" Garkin exclaimed. "Humans are made to hunt! This is the result of 20,000 years of human evolution! Well-developed sweat glands, thick lower limbs, and two-legged landing are all made for long-distance pursuit of prey! β
Qin Xiaoyu ran over, leaned on Li Ling's body, and winked at him, as if asking Ge Jin what he was going to do. Li Ling spread his hands, indicating that he was also confused.
"But in the last few thousand years, society has developed too fast, and the genetic evolution of human beings is far from catching up with the pace of change of the times, and our bodies are still in the primitive human period. This leads to a lot of problems! For example...... Three highs, huh...... And ......" Ge Jin scratched his head and said, "Kurban, you come!" β
Although Kurban did not know all the secrets of Gejin, he had heard what Gejin had said and enthusiastically supported his views.
"He's unconscious!" The female doctor Haruko whispered, and then her shy face turned red, she didn't seem to like to talk in front of everyone.
"I know!" A stocky man in his forties lifted his glasses and walked over to Ge Jin. But he was too short for anyone to see.
Ge Jin frowned and picked him up.
"High blood pressure, hyperlipidemia, hyperglycemia. Of course, there is much more than that, there are strokes, obesity, myopia, depression, athlete's foot, frigidity, ......"
"That's enough." Gzin put the man down with satisfaction and asked again, "What's your name?" Little fat man! β
"My name is Yan Qiang, but I haven't finished yet!" The man jumped up and said. "I know what you're going to say, I'm an expert! I belong to the primitives! β
Ge Jin stifled a smile and picked him up again. He didn't expect his speech to go so well.
"The evolution of humanity is out of tune! We have to go back in time! Yan Qiang raised his fist and said. Only by living like primitive people can we live healthier and happier! β
"What a smart guy!" Ge Jin secretly admired and nodded his head as the man spoke, as if forgetting that he was the one who initiated the speech.
"Pandas are an example of this! They are already on the verge of being eliminated! I can only rely on the help of humans to survive, and I can't even breed on my own......"
"It's like this guy in my arms!" Ge Jin laughed and interjected, and then threw Yan Qiang to the ground. "Would you rather be a panda or a real man β or a woman?"
The crowd erupted in laughter. Qin Xiaoyu and some young ladies couldn't help but blush.
"So what are we going to do? Is it like primitive people gathering and hunting? Someone asked, the voice coming from the Guardians.
"What's not to do?!" Ge Jin asked.
"It's not going to work!" There is humanity. "Sooner or later, the trajectory of the development of human society will be repeated."
"We've got to slow down at least a little bit." Ge Jindao. "We're here to warn people who want to break the rules with stories and books! We should live a life close to nature! Future generations will be grateful to us! β
But there are still many scholars who have raised doubts! They all shouted.
"But have you ever thought about what price primitive people have ever paid?!"
"Let's hurry up and find the forerunner and think about how to change this world!"
"The pioneers have been struggling here for hundreds of years, why should we suffer these hardships again?!"
"The materials on the spaceship have sunk to the bottom of the lake, and the body is not as good as the primitive people, so it's hard to do!"
β¦β¦
Ge Jin Void pressed his palm, signaled everyone to be quiet, and continued: "I have thought about your problems, I just advocate a simple and simple way of life, but we are not barbarians, we can use our wisdom and talents to live a more wild but comfortable life!" "Guckin had clearly prepared his rhetoric.
"And what about our mission!? Find the quest for those forerunners. "Someone asked the same question as Li Ling.
"It will converge according to the plan, but we should strengthen ourselves first, and then pass with dignity! Instead of pitifully begging them for acceptance! "Ge Jindao." The West has been dominating the world for some time, but here they have to listen to me! β
This time, the crowd erupted in rare cheers.
"So, let's get moving, and set off on the set goal!" Ge Jin raised his fist and said. "If you have any questions that are difficult to decide, just ask me or Adjutant Li!"
The guards immediately began ordering everyone to pack their bags and prepare to move in a certain direction. It was as if they had already agreed to do so.
"So, I'll be the Chief's Lady?!" Qin Xiaoyu looked at Li Ling in surprise.
"Will you learn from them? Woo-la-la-laββ! "Li Ling didn't intend to let Qin Xiaoyu bear Ge Jin's secret, so he made a joke." Relax, you look at the other guardians, it's like you've been beaten! β
Qin Xiaoyu thought for a while and said, "No matter what he says, I just need to stay by your side." β
"Adjutant Li!" Ma Qiang happened to pass by Li Ling's side and immediately stood up straight respectfully. "Shouldn't we leave some markings for every place we pass by! to show that this is our territory! β
Li Ling had the image of a lion and a dog peeing on his territory, but he forced a smile and said, "I agree!" And it has to be obvious enough! β
"Order!" The horse forced a military salute and immediately ran off to carry out the mission.
"Adjutant Li!" A little man ran over and asked with a playful smile, "Are we going back to matrilineal society or patrilineal?" How many wives can a man marry?! β
"His name is Wang Yue, and he is an honest guy." Knowing that Li Ling had selective amnesia, Qin Xiaoyu whispered in his ear.
Li Ling was stunned, thinking that he hadn't thought of this problem, so he had to say, "Hmm...... This one...... Why don't you ask Commander Ge?! β
"I'm afraid he'll hit me!" Wang Yue replied honestly.
"How many do you want?!" Qin Xiaoyu looked at him curiously.
Wang Yue's face turned red all of a sudden, and he glanced at Haruko, who was taking care of Kurban, before he said slightly: "That's naturally Han Xin's soldiersβthe more the merrier!" But well...... One is fine, as long as it is not like a matriarchal society, a few men and a wife! β
"Greedy guy, get out of here!" Qin Xiaoyu smiled and gave Wang Yue a big roll of his eyes and blasted him away.
β¦β¦
"I always felt that something was wrong!" After a while, Qin Xiaoyu frowned. "Are you hiding something from me?"
Li Ling patted the back of Qin Xiaoyu's hand, didn't know how to speak, and thought for a long time before saying, "No matter what happens, stay calm!" β
"But look at it!" Qin Xiaoyu stretched out his hand and pointed into the distance.
Li Ling followed her fingers and looked over, and soon, all the hairs on his body stood upside down.
Ma Qiang is supervising a group of men, making them spread out into an oversized circle and then peeing to leave a mark. There was a man who seemed to be reluctant, and was slapped a few times by Ma Qiang before he obediently left his breath.
"This ...... This...... These guys! It's too quick to get into the role! Li Ling stammered.
"Let's go!" Due to Kurban's injury, Ma Qiang was zealous to replace the accusations of the captain of the guard. Soon, the procession, of less than three hundred people, set off towards the highest mountain in the distance.
According to Gzkin's public explanation, the Precursor settlements were located just behind the main peaks of the rolling mountains. Everyone was very enthusiastic to give that mountain range a name - Jinling Mountain Range. However, under Ge Jin's humility, it was changed to the Lingjin Mountain Range.
"People go to high places!" In private, Ge Jin quietly told Li Ling. "And you don't have to look up to see the goal of this trip - the continuous Lingjin Mountains and the main peak of the towering skyline."
β¦β¦
The supporters did not rush all the way, but after some deliberation, the crowd was divided into small groups. Some are responsible for recording the terrain and weather, some are responsible for making tools and weapons, and some are responsible for lighting fires, cooking, and gathering and hunting. In short, everyone was assigned a job that seemed to match according to their previous occupation. For example, a mathematician is tasked with counting the number of people in the morning and evening, and a geologist is responsible for exploring the way.
Soon they found an abundant river and headed upstream at the behest of Gejin.
Surprisingly, most of the animals here are docile and easy to kill! They are easily able to get enough meat. Even the occasional ferocious-looking beast or two did not dare to approach the large army of humans.
And the nights in this world are always surprisingly quiet and safe.
The only flaw is that, perhaps because there is no moon, the night here is always too dark.
