Chapter Thirty-Four: Chade's New Friend
In the early morning, the low temperature overnight caused a thin layer of frost to condense on the plants outside the cave, and the thin frost swayed with the leaves and stems of the plants in the breeze. When the sun melts, the frost falls to the ground and quickly disappears into the soil. In the dense forests in the mountains, from time to time, there are cries of birds and animals that are far or near, high or low to catch food early. In the sky, countless clouds of different sizes and thicknesses, shadows cast on the ground, unconsciously changing its shape, drifting away, gradually submerged below the horizon. On the small platform in front of the entrance of the cave, there are occasionally a few aborigines, flapping their wings and flying out of the cave to collect food, or intermittently, flapping their wings and carrying food back to the cave. The first time I saw a pair of bags on their backs, and then a pair of wings, it always felt like they had given birth to a pair of awkward burdens, and they became accustomed to seeing them after a long time. And their light and agile figures when they flew in and out made Cha De envy and sigh, feeling that in this group of animals, he was missing wings like a crippled creature. Chad was surrounded by a few small aborigines, and judging by their physical appearance, it seemed that they were not fully developed - they should be children among the aborigines. Chad, in the middle, sat on a rock, and he pointed to himself and said, "I." Then he pointed to a child and said, "You." Then he pointed to the other child and said, "Him." Then he pointed to himself, the second child and the third, and said, "Follow me and say 'I,' 'you,' and 'he.'" The children around him were all wide-eyed, like watching an animal show in a zoo, and one of them could have opened his mouth to read it. He got up and took two more steps, made a walking gesture, and said, "Go." Then he ran briskly, saying, "Run." He stretched out his two hands, flickered up and down a few times to make a flying gesture, and said, "Fly." "The children are still in that state, and the language learning is still the same. The difference is that two days ago there was an adult who was about the same height as Cha De, who was staring at Cha De and the children's daily "performance" from a distance, and today, this adult, a little closer to Cha De, still stared intently at Cha De's movements and words - Cha De occasionally glanced at him so and so. Chade taught for a long time, and it seems that these children still have no growth today, and what makes him even more frustrated is that the two eldest children have left their circle and run away to a farther place to play alone. Cha De pondered and wanted to change the situation, but for a while he couldn't think of any suitable way to save it. He was stunned for a moment, and then turned to see that the adults were also staring at him. Cha De looked at the adults a little, except for the two bulges on his head, which can be concluded that he is different from the aborigines of one bag, and the rest, appearance, skin, etc., are no different from other aboriginal adults. He beckoned to him: "Come, come to me." The adult squirmed and moved two steps towards Chad. Chade smiled, "Come closer." The adult took two more steps. Chade raised his eyebrows and smiled, "Are you afraid of me?" After speaking, he shook his head, and waved to the children: "Spread out and play by yourself!" When he stood up, the children seemed to get a signal and ran away. He wanted to turn right and return to the cave, the corner of his eye scanned to the left, and he felt that a gray mass was quickly approaching him, he turned to the left, and the adult aborigines walked very close to him, he must come down, and the aborigines also stopped their steps, and hesitated to move back half a step. Chad smiled at the aborigines, "What are you doing? Is there something wrong? The aboriginal stared at the two big eyes, and with a hesitant look in his eyes, he stretched out a hand and pointed directly at the clothes on his body. Chade turned his head and neck to look at the clothes on his body: "What? Nothing, huh? The aborigines still pointed. Chad pulled down from his neck to open some zippers and open them a little: "What? In the pocket inside, a small section of the communicator was exposed, and Cha De pointed to the communicator: "Is this it?" The aborigines made a voice that they couldn't understand, and if they were willing to speak, they were sure of the other party's intentions. He pulled out the communicator, and the natives approached him. Chade opened the interface of the communicator to the aborigines standing sideways, thought for a moment, found the music folder, selected a piece of music and played it for a while, then exited, and found the movie folder next to it, selected a movie and put it on. At this time, Cha De found that the aborigines' eyes were glued to the screen, and he knew what this guy liked. He handed the communicator into the native's hand, smiled, and walked towards the entrance of the cave. He thought, after teaching for a few days, he found that a person who likes to watch movies is still an adult, and compared with the learning ability of children, this has become an age, and he doesn't know when he will be able to learn it, so that he can wake up from his sleep, hold his guitar, and prepare to compose a new tune. When he arrived at the entrance of the cave, a chill came to him, he shivered, rubbed his free hand in the armpit, and said in his mouth: "Oops! Frozen to death! "The dusty sun has begun to darken, and it is even darker near the entrance of the cave with its back to the west. The huge shadow of the entire mountain surrendered far away, until the far reaches of the potholed plain under the cliff in front of the cave, as if it was close to the hiding place where they had last found out that they were going to rescue Jana. Looking at the plants on the mountain and beside the cave from afar, some of them have begun to prepare for rest, because you can see that their leaves have not stretched out at noon, as if some have begun to gather up on the branches, of course, this process is impossible to distinguish with the eyes, but can only be felt after comparing them with the state at noon. Which aboriginal is still looking at the screen of the communicator on the stone that he has checked? The light and shadow flashed on the screen on the faces of the aborigines—and they were still very attentive. Chad approached the Aborigines. The aborigines spotted him, hurriedly handed the communicator to him, and said, "You're awake." "Hmm!" Chade replied. "Give it back to you." Aborigines said. "Hmm!" Chade was stunned for a moment: "Can you speak?" Do you say it again? The aboriginal didn't understand what he meant, but when he saw that he didn't answer the communicator, he said, "Give it back to you." Cha De reacted that he probably still didn't understand the meaning of the last sentence just now, but only used a few words from the communicator he had just learned. Cha De thinks this guy is good, he can use some words so quickly, but he is much better than those children. Chad pushed the communicator to the aborigines: "I don't need it now, you can look at yours!" After speaking, he smiled kindly at the aborigines. The aborigines didn't shirk either, but they began to blink and think about things, and after a glance, they said slowly: "I-I" Cha quickly got closer and stared at the aborigines' lips: "Don't worry, think about it slowly." "I-I-I-'s-name-fire-man." Chad corrected, "Read it with me." Pointing to himself: "I'm called, fire, man." That's it. Come on, say it again. Aborigines: "I'm called, fire, man." Chad exclaimed with joy, "Ah! That's right. He patted the aborigines on the shoulder: "That's it, you don't have to be afraid of anything, speak up, as long as you say it, you will soon be able to master our language." Ok, good, good! Very good. The aborigines also relaxed when they saw Cha's relaxed expression. Through Huoman's love for movies and the improvement of language from movies, Cha gradually learned some more information about the Huoman tribe: his tribe is called Huo, and there are several tribes that are far away from them that are related to them, but what he knows and knows better is only one stone tribe and one is the tree tribe. The leader of their own tribe was called Huo Yue. Some of the things that are useful to them, such as things that are often used and can be eaten, are named. They also set names for verbs that come up in everyday life—simple words like walking, flying, eating, hitting, running, and so on. It also made Chad realize how limited the content and scope of their lives were. They also have the concept of time, but it is only in the past, that is, in the days when a few suns have passed - what has happened in that time. For example, in the first few suns, who of them found a place with a lot of food, etc., and then went back to time and things, they neither had the energy nor the need, because the real and current life pressure was enough for them, and they didn't care about what happened in the past. Of course, Chade also asked Huoman to introduce the names of several tribe members who are currently more familiar with him, so that Chade knew that the name of Jiana's "aunt" was Huomi, her child's name was Huomo, and the names of several children, such as Huoji, Huohei, Huo'an, and so on. The first of their names is taken from the name of the tribe, and the latter should have other meanings, such as the word "man" in Huoman, which means smart and dexterous. Cha De felt that it was difficult to remember the meaning, or the method of naming the name that Huoman inadvertently obtained from the movie was the easiest way to remember the name by pronunciation. As his name suggests, he is clever and dexterous, he learns languages very quickly, and most notably by learning from mediums such as movies, so that Cha De who does not know how to educate people has a lot of thoughts. "Fortunately" after more than a month, Huo Man and Chade were already able to have a simpler content and a more fluent language conversation. In this way, they became friends unconsciously. A gesture between friends, an expression expressed through words, coupled with the impetus of time, is immeasurable for Huoman's progress. It seems that time can not only erase the unhappiness of the past, but also establish new feelings and narrow the gap between species. The children were playing with Huo Man, Chade was holding the instrument as if he was thinking about his own music, and unconsciously his thoughts ran to another world, and he thought of some past events on the earth—one moment it was many times, one moment it was Zhaoli, one moment it was which woman flashed in front of his eyes, one moment he thought of the scene when several people gathered, one moment he was nervous when he rescued Lu Yuan, and one moment he was Abeka's smile, In a moment, Abeka's grumpy face appeared vaguely in front of her eyes for a while. If I hadn't borrowed money from Abeka, wouldn't she have done this to me? She doesn't seem to be that kind of person! Ay! Who calls yourself spending money all day long without savings, wouldn't it be so troublesome if you didn't borrow money from Abeka! It's impossible to tell what is going on as soon as you get the money, huh! Another woman—a woman's heart is hard to guess! Chad muttered to himself in his mind: "Daisra didn't send me when I left, is she angry with me again!" I don't think there's anything to offend her. Ay! Whatever! Anyway, if she was taken out of the earth and saved her life, she was worthy of her. Huoman: They are okay, but their physical strength is not very good! I don't think I'm heavy! They used all their strength to feed, and they still couldn't fly on my back. Ha! If they can take me to the base for a ride, it will definitely scare the people at the base. Hey! Hey! Chad grinned to himself. You giggle! A vague and awkward voice sounded above Cha De's head, and when Cha De looked up, he saw that it was Huo Man, and immediately smiled, and shook his head a little embarrassedly: "I didn't laugh at anything!" Huoman: "In your face." Chade touched his face with his hand: "Really?" "You're talking about it! My face - cheeky - thick-skinned, what is the expression - I can't see it, then say - yes to say, well! You're thin-skinned! All expressions are on the face, so that everyone can see it. Huoman's long story was full of potholes, and he basically understood it, and he grinned: "I learned very quickly!" Ay! It's been almost two months, and I'm going to teach you as a student. I said, how do you change the colors on your bodies, is it fun? Huoman: "What is color-change-come-change-go?" Suddenly, Huo Man didn't know what it meant: "It's the color of your body, you know what the color means, right?" "Know! It's just --- huh! Colors, that's those, those flowers—green things. Chad nodded: "Yes! Color is the general term for flowers, that is, it is unified into a name. Got it! Huo Man learned to check and nodded: "Hmm! Got it. "Say it! How can it change and change. "Conditionally." Chade frowned and said, "Conditions? After a while, it dawned on me: "You mean to meet the conditions you mentioned?" Xiang Huoman gave a thumbs up: "You are amazing, admire you." Huo Man blinked very smoothly: "Hmm! That's what it means. Chade grinned: "He also told me about the conditions." "I learned from you!" Cha was silent for a while: "Hmm! Say, what conditions? He beckoned to the children gathered around him again: "That's all for today, let's disperse!" "The children are leaving. Chad to Huoman: "What conditions?" Go ahead! "Take—take me to your house." I didn't seem to hear clearly: "What? "Take me to your house, see-see." Chade hesitated: "My family, what is there to look at in my family?" Chade thought to himself: It's too fast to lead him to the base now, right? Last time, it wasn't because they kidnapped Jiana, and the base was turned upside down for a long time. And because of me, and them, for no reason, Jaena suffered misfortune. Cha De grinned dryly and simply said, "No! Other conditions are OK? "No, it's just-counted-counted-pulled-down." Turn around and want to leave. "Don't go! Is it still negotiable? What about the other conditions? "I'm sorry! The other conditions, no-no-I didn't think about it. Huoman departed, leaving Chad alone on the stone, soaking up the sun. He looked up and squinted at the clouds floating in the sky. Some of them are solitary, some are large, all of them are yellowish in the thin places, and some are inky black in the thick places, and the yellow-white sunlight passes through the gaps between the clouds, and then through the atmosphere, casting a series of rays of light, thick or thin, long or short. The sunlight casts on the shadows formed by the clouds obscuring the earth, and with the clouds in the sky, in the mountains, sliding on the mountains. The dark trees and grasses on the ground swayed one by one under the wind, and the nearby trees and grass swayed, making bursts of waves. What a magnificent view, Cha De thought, this would have been so obsessive on Earth a long time ago. It's time to report on the situation in the past few days, Chade turned on the communicator, and the communicator showed the person who needed to connect, Chade connected to Wen He as usual: "Wen He!" In the communicator, Wen He seemed to be chewing food, puffing out his face, and his cheeks kept shaking: "Hmm! It's me! Chad: "Eat!" When you're done eating, I'll report back to you on the past few days. "It's okay, you say, I'll listen." "Alright! One is that there are a few others around this tribe, and there should be three closest. "How far, probably." "I haven't been there, I asked Huoman, but they don't have a concept of distance, so there's no way to be sure." "How can you be sure that there are other tribes around them?" "That's what Huoman told me, and I've noticed that there are always some unfamiliar faces here from time to time, and they all look at me with surprised expressions." "Oh! What else? "I learned from Huomana that they still don't have a lot of food, and the amount they collect is very limited, so they sometimes go hungry." Chad continued: "Hey! I said, can we help them? "Help what?" "What else could it be! Eating problems! As soon as Huoman said that they sometimes had to go hungry, I was a little reluctant to go. Wen He hesitated for a while: "It's not impossible to help, but you must know that our own food problem has not been solved, and it is unrealistic to help them again, right!" Cha De was reluctant to say, "Didn't you say it in vain!" "What! Kindness attacked?" You're such a hard-hearted man. Wen He smiled: "Hehe! I'm a hard-hearted man! You're really going to see people jump to conclusions. "Isn't it?" "If you say that, shouldn't we let them, your friends, step into the age of science?" "Did I say that?" "That's what you mean!" Cha De said angrily: "Don't change my concept for me!" Wen He smiled: "What are you doing!" Angry. "I won't tell you, I'll tell Ivan, hum!" Wen Heren was hippie smiling: "Ivan doesn't have time. "No matter." Chade immediately dialed Ivan. Ivan had a tired face on the communicator: "Cha yes! What's up. "Chad is going to help the fire man, and the meaning of their fire tribe is said again. Ivan replied, "I think I can barely find out what I told you!" Wen He was right when he told you. "What? You don't think you can help?! "That's not it, you listen to me, we also need to pay attention to ability and timing when we help, right?" Cha De wondered: "Isn't our ability still good?" "Can we do it with our current capabilities?" You think about it, right! We have only been here for a short time, and we are completely unfamiliar with this place, and we have not been able to solve our own food problems, so how can we help others, isn't it? "Chade:""Don't worry, when we solve the problem of eating, we will definitely help them solve it." Cha De said helplessly: "Hmm! Right! And that's exactly what happened. So how is the improvement of the crops in our base? "It's going to take a while to do it, and, as you know, there's not a lot of variety." "I know." "We still have a lot of problems to solve! What is more necessary is a lot of time to do it. Chad sighed, "Yes! Ivan lowered his tone again: "Even if you help in the future, it is also conditional, and there is a degree problem in it, I have to explain this to you in advance!" Wen He's expression was surprised, but his tone didn't come out: "Why?" "How to say it! Well! For example, if we help them achieve the problem of being fed, will they become so dependent that they will no longer want to do the work of gathering, hunting, etc.? Chade laughed: "How is that possible! Ivan also laughed and said, "How-what-may-can!" I ask you, can you eat enough? Do you work in agricultural production now? Compare you to them, can you eat without farming, and they can do the same as you? Nope! Because you don't produce, you can use your other kind of labor, which is music, to achieve the purpose of entertaining everyone and feeding yourself, what about them! Do they have the conditions, the environment, and the ability? Are you still so sure? Cha got a hippie smile: "Hey, hey! Ivan: "In the future, if we help them achieve this, for example, hunting and gathering food using better and more scientific methods, can you be sure that there will be no bad impact on the environment and results?" For their part, they are still in a primitive society, and they know that sometimes, they need to control their behavior, will they? It's impossible to think about, right? And what about us? However, it is deeply affected by the overexploitation of the environment! We're self-controlled, right? Also, even if we instill in them too early and too many new methods, they will need time, knowledge, and even ability to accept them, right? Chade nodded and said, "Listening to what you said, I have gained a lot of knowledge." Thanks! Ivan laughed, "Don't pout that mouth." "Am I pouting?" "I think, since they are in trouble, you can go back to the base!" "I want to go back to the base these days, but I feel that there are still many problems you told me that have not been clarified, and I have found some new problems that need to be continued to be observed, so I hesitated." "Those questions of mine can't be solved in such a little time, not to mention that you may not be able to fully figure it out in two or twenty years, even in two or twenty years. Come back and stay for a while, and want to go back to their tribe. Come back! Lao Duo, Lao Zhao, they all miss you! "Then you take me to say hello to them." "Hmm!" "I haven't finished talking to Wen He just now, so let's wait until I get back to the base and report back." "Hmmm! OK. Nothing else, right? Chade hesitated: "There is something I want to ask for your opinion." "You say." "I have a friend here, named Huoman, you know, he wants to go to our base to have fun, do you think it's okay?" Ivan hesitated for a moment: "Yes!" "I think that after the Jia Na incident, if there is a fire man and these people in the base again, will it scare the people in the base again." "Hmmm! Then I'll discuss it with the others and get back to you as soon as I'm done, okay? "Okay!" Chad, who was about to enter the cave, met Huoman, who was walking out: "Where are you going?" "Zhuan" Cha said with a smile: "Tell you good news, do you want to know what it is?" "What good news." "I'm going home, I can take you with me if you want to go." Huo Man was disappointed: "I-I should-have-eat-delicious!" "What? Don't want to go again? Don't you dare! We've got delicious food there too! "Just go, do you look like someone who doesn't dare to go?" "Then you get ready, and you'll leave in three hours." "Me! I-ready? No. "Wait, I'm going to say goodbye to Huomi." "What do you mean by saying goodbye?" "I've watched the movie for two months, and I still don't understand! It's just that I'm leaving, say goodbye, oops! I just hope that she can take care of herself, or have a chance to see her again in the future. Huo Man smiled evilly: "No-she, you won't-come to us, right?" Cha De was surprised and then came to his senses: "Who said that?" What do you think? Didn't I get hurt and be saved by her, just to thank her? Huo Man glanced at Cha's face: "Really?!" We-we're here, but--no-you're not what you say-you-you're a monogamous. Except - except for the chief specified - a few women he likes, and others, anyone can, well! With her, you like it, hehe! Cha De's face was a little embarrassed: "I've only learned human language for a few days, and when it comes to this matter, it's quite smooth." You're so mouthful! I said that I was here to thank her. Huo Man smiled: "What you said - practice more and talk more!" Put-give-give-play, I-I need more-more-study-learn. Chad shook his head: "You! The more you learn, the more nonsense you will have. I'm going to use this now, and I'll talk about it later. ”
