Chapter 22 Initial Perception of the Outside World

When did she fall asleep in the second half of the night, Yun Duo didn't remember anymore, when she woke up, it was already bright, listening to the snoring sound one after another, she rubbed her eyes and sat up, seeing that it was still raining outside, she understood why the clansmen hadn't come out of the cave until now, she yawned and stood up and walked to the entrance of the cave to see Uncle Ji was building stone tools and sat down beside him.

"Uncle Ji, can you build me a larger stone basin with a thinner bottom."

Ji put down what he was doing, moved a large rock from the side, looked at her and asked, "What are you going to use it for?" ”

"Cook the grass!"

Ji Wen took a closer look at the stone in his hand and then threw it aside, and looked around again: "If you don't use it in a hurry, wait, there are no suitable stones at hand, these stones are not good texture, and if the bottom of the stone basin is too thin, it will crack if you burn it a few times." ”

"Don't worry, there's Uncle Laoji."

"You don't have to be so polite with me, you slept close to the entrance of the cave, did you find anything unusual yesterday?"

Yun Duo thought about the young man and shook his head as he looked at the person in front of him, she decided to keep his business a secret for the time being.

"But what happened?"

"When I woke up this morning, I noticed that the stone gate seemed to have been moved a little, but maybe I thought too much."

"Uncle Ji, you often go out hunting, have you ever seen people from other tribes?" Thinking about the young man, she couldn't help but ask.

"No, there is only one tribe in this vicinity, maybe there will be people from other tribes farther away, but it's a pity that we can't get out, and people from other tribes can't enter."

Yun Duo looked at him and asked curiously, "Why?" ”

"There is a big swamp within a radius of 100 miles, and where there is no swamp, there is the territory of wolves, tigers, bears, and eagles, which just forms a circle, and we are in this circle, we can't get out, and the same people from other tribes can't enter."

"Oh!" After listening to Ji's words, she felt more and more strange, what happened to that young man? Where did he come from?

Ji looked at the silent man and said gently, "Why did you suddenly remember to ask this?" ”

"I'm just curious, Uncle Ji, do we have a wide range of hunting?"

"Not wide, every time we go out hunting, we take the same route, the determination of this route allows us to sacrifice a lot of people, compared to several other routes it is the safest for us, the food is relatively the most, only the prey is not easy to fight, and the fruits that can be eaten are not easy to pick, otherwise we don't have to be hungry every day, but since you found that the grass roots can be eaten, the people who stay at home can eat every day, so that you can save some food that can be stored, I have a feeling that maybe this winter won't be as hard as it has been in previous years. ”

Looking at the people who are full of longing for the future, Yun Duo has some feelings, in fact, the requirements of the clansmen are not high, they just want to fill their stomachs and live well, and such a simple request has become a luxury in this world full of dangers.

At this time, Xuanshi silently walked over, sat down beside them, and skillfully helped Ji to build stone tools.

Ji looked at Xuanshi who was bowing his head and smiled softly: "Your strength has increased a lot recently. ”

Xuanshi hummed softly.

"Uncle Ji had such a heavy rain yesterday, do the clansmen who went out hunting have a place to hide from the rain?"

"We have opened three caves in the middle of this route, it is not safe to sleep outside at night, no matter what happens, they will return to the caves, so you don't have to worry that they won't get drenched, I know you are full of curiosity about the outside now, and when your natural ability is fully awakened, you can go out hunting with us."

Under Ji's explanation, she had a general understanding of the outside, and when she saw that the rain had stopped, she stood up with a straw basket and walked towards the woods, and Genshi hurriedly followed with a knife and an axe.
