"There will be large stones with tribal totems painted on the edges of the tribe to divide the spheres of influence of different tribes, and if you look closely, you can see that the totem of the Xiong tribe is the bear. Liang Jian explained with a smile.

Qin Yue suddenly realized, and then furrowed his brows and asked, "Why didn't I see it?"

Liang Jian knocked on her head and said with a smile: "You kept looking around all the way, where did you go to see any stones?"

Qin Yue thought about it, too, she really didn't pay attention to any stones along the way, just to see where there was no whereabouts of salt.

Thinking of salt, and thinking that in a few days they would have to say goodbye to the Black Rock tribe, in this age of beasts, there is still a division of territory between the tribes, so where do they go?

Fortunately, Liang Jian's bow and arrow hunting is very good, she can pick some wild fruits to survive, and the two of them will not starve to death in the barren mountains and mountains, but they must not be able to occupy the mountains as kings in other tribes, so they can only go to farther places.

Thinking of this, she couldn't help but ponder.

Liang Jian's eyes fell on her, seeing her sad face and heavy thoughts, he sighed and said: "Don't worry, there are many people here, but they are all gathered from the vast mountains and forests, and the tribes are far away from each other, this place is so big, can they still be occupied by them?"

Hearing him say this, Qin Yue suddenly smiled, and leaned next to Liang Jian with a smile, "Then let's find a good place with mountains and rivers and build a small cabin, the cave here is really unaccustomed to living, and it is dark and not breathable." ”

"Okay, do as you say. Liang Jian looked at her, her eyes were gentle like water, and the starlight flickered in her dark pupils.

As the two were saying this, Yanu had already walked back and told them to rest for two days before they could officially exchange.

In the past two days, tribes who have made friends with the Black Rock tribe have come over and have a good conversation with Yanu.

Idle and bored, Qin Yue wandered around, and saw that there were women from other tribes here, but most of them were still strong men.

Passing through a tribe of dozens of people, she was thrilled to see them boiling water in clay pots, which were rough and black, and they didn't look good, but she was thrilled.

The Black Rock tribe did not have pottery, and even the utensils for holding water were hewn out of stones, and it was much more convenient to use green fruit husks to make utensils later, and she was still so backward as the whole continent. Unexpectedly, a tribe burned paper out of pottery, and there were several items wrapped in animal skins next to it, presumably the pottery that this tribe exchanged.

As if sensing her gaze, the person over there glared fiercely, protecting the clay pot like a treasure. Qin Yue touched his nose and didn't look at it anymore.

After walking around again, he received a large wave of scrutiny from various tribes, and Qin Yue fled. The primitive natives here are too terrifying, she has just seen people eating raw meat, and it seems that the development of various tribal civilizations is uneven, and some backward tribes do not know how to drill wood for fire.

When he returned to the place where the Black Rock tribe gathered, a bonfire had been lit in the clearing, and there was a pile of dry wood next to it, and Liang Jian didn't know where he had gone.

Looking at it again, Hornrock is not there, so there must be something going out.

The valley was very large, and there was a deep pool to the southwest, where various tribes went to get water.

Qin Yue took two scoop-shaped large fruit shells, walked over, the deep pool was about the size of a small pond, a prominent mountain rock above the slope blocked, the pool water did not know the depth, the clear water in the gap on the mountain rock seeped out and fell into the pool water, the sound of ticking water seemed ethereal and quiet.

The water in the pool was cold to the bone, and she scooped up two scoops of water and prepared to go home.

But I saw a man with a strong physique and full muscles next to him, who walked to the edge of the pool in a few strides, and stretched out his hands to hold a handful of buffalo drinks.

Looking familiar, Qin Yue recalled it in his mind, and recognized him as the man with feathers on his head and laughing arrogantly, the leader of the Black Wolf Tribe.

Obviously, he also noticed Qin Yue next to him, raised his head, his unfathomable gaze fell on her, and then looked at her utensils for holding water.

"What is this?" The unfamiliar voice was a little confused, very low, a little different from the indigenous accent of the Black Rock tribe, but it was generally intelligible.

"This?" Qin Yue was stunned, then raised the husk in his hand and replied, "This is the green husk, the fruit that bears on the vines." ”

"Qingguo?" the black wolf didn't understand.

"I took the name of a lot of these fruits in the forest, the shells are very hard, and they can be split in half to hold water and boil water. Qin Yue patiently explained.

The black wolf nodded as if he had realized something, and asked again, "Can you exchange it?"

"Change what?" she said, "Can you change the salt?"

"Salt?" the black wolf looked at her in astonishment and shook his head, "Salt is precious, you can't exchange this thing for salt, and I don't have extra salt to exchange with you." ”

A wave of frustration welled up in my heart, and after a moment it dissipated, and there was no hope in the first place.

Qin Yue nodded and left without saying a word.

When she boiled the water, Liang Jian and Jiao Yan came back with an antelope-shaped animal in one hand, about the size of a calf, enough for these people in the tribe to eat a few meals.

The movement also drew the burning gaze of several nearby tribesmen, and she seemed to hear the sound of hungry primitive natives swallowing saliva.

Soon, the two animal carcasses were dismembered into pieces, Qin Yue took a piece and a half of the meat, cleaned it, cut it into small pieces, threw it into boiling water, stewed the broth and drank it, and the remaining meat was worn on the branches of the tree and roasted on the bonfire.

The smell of food soon permeated the neighborhood, and the people of several other tribes, who looked yellow and thin, looked at them with glowing eyes and envy.

Liang Jian turned the branch to roast the meat with a calm face, but Qin Yue was very uncomfortable.

As if they knew that the delicious food was not their share, and after the smell of meat had been permeating for a long time, those people stopped looking at this side, but silently took out the dark and hard jerky, put it in their mouths and chewed it.

The valley seemed to be a huge refugee camp, and the primitive natives, clad in animal skins and sticky hair, seemed to them to be no different from refugees.

It's just that this refugee also has a gap between the rich and the poor, and a group of more than a dozen people from the black wolf tribe over there, also holding stone spears, carrying the prey, walked out of the narrow corridor, walked to the range occupied by the black wolf tribe, and threw the prey to the ground.

She told this analogy to Liang Jian, and he couldn't help but smile: "The development of civilization here is slow, there are few exchanges between tribes, it is normal for tribes to develop unevenly, and the Black Rock tribe can only be regarded as a small tribe in this area, maybe there are bigger tribes in distant places." ”

Qin Yue agreed with this statement, across the vast forests and endless mountains, what else was hidden in this continent, they didn't know anything, what they saw was just the tip of the iceberg near the tribe.

Once able to circumnavigate the entire earth in a short period of time, but now trapped in the ground under his feet, it is difficult to move forward, Qin Yue is inevitably a little lonely.
