The big tribe is in the depths of the jungle, with the footsteps of ordinary people, it takes ten sunrises and sunsets, and the jungle is very dangerous, there are all kinds of fierce beasts lurking, even a group of warriors, you need to be cautious at all times.

Therefore, the speed of travel is not fast, the day is in a hurry, the night rest, it can only walk thirty miles, the night jungle is more dangerous, the night beasts emerge in an endless stream, can not hurry, must find a cave tree hole to rest.

From the cave of the tribe to the big tribe, it is about 300 miles, and there are fifteen people who come out to trade, including Yeyang, there are only five warriors, and the remaining ten people are all strong adults.

Warriors armed with weapons stood guard around the ranks to prevent sudden crises, while non-warriors were responsible for carrying goods, carrying clay pots, pottery bowls, a few clothes sewn from animal skins, and sun-dried spices and dried meat.

Jerky is the food of the team on the road, and the main items traded are pottery and clothes, and spices can also be traded, but there are not many things to change, and the animal skin clothes and pants on the people have been replaced with rough tanned animal skins.

There are only a few warriors, still wearing animal skin clothes, and the leader is not Yeyang, but a high-level person wearing fiber cloth clothes, but he has also changed to animal skin clothes, and the truth that wealth is not exposed is what he later taught the tribe.

On the way to the big tribe, the team encountered many attacks, there were packs of wolves, there were solitary saber-toothed tigers, there were vigorous and nimble leopards, there were giant pythons with thick buckets, some trouble, but there were no casualties.

There was a tribesman who was accidentally scratched by the paws of a big cat, and the night sun boiled water to clean him, took out mugwort leaves and kneaded them to extract the juice, and tied them with fiber cloth on the wound, and by the time the big tribe arrived, they had already begun to scar.

It was the first time he had come to the big tribe, and there was not much difference in the people outside, except that there were some slight differences in appearance, most of them were wrapped in grass skirts and animal skins, and a few wore animal skin clothes, which were simple and rough, and had not been tanned.

The big tribes in the jungle are very strong, just the clansmen who can be seen, there are no less than six hundred, most of them are oily, healthy and strong, thirty percent of them are warriors, and they have seen more than a dozen flesh and blood warriors.

According to rough estimates, the number of tribes should be close to one thousand, there are at least more than three hundred warriors, and there are dozens of flesh and blood warriors, and the influence range is at least five hundred miles, in comparison, their tribe is too weak.

The great tribes had long since come out of their caves and began to build houses outside, but not the usual ground houses, their houses were built on the canopy of trees, like huge bird's nests, and the tribesmen leaped through the branches of the forest.

There are also fences around the tribe, with large and small sticks, wrapped around a few simple vines, the length of the sticks is uneven, and the intervals are sometimes large and sometimes small, which can only defend against small animals, but cannot prevent those fierce beasts.

He saw a few goats, tied to the hind legs of vines, tied to the stumps, some with fresh blades of grass and some making pottery, but the soil was not good, not practical and unsightly.

In the middle of the treehouse, there is a huge fire pit made of stones, the flames are blazing, it is said that this tribe has learned to make fire, and use it to radiate other tribes, let's call him the fire tribe!

The fire tribe's trade fair is held in the annual birth season, and in addition to them, there are more than 20 tribes within a few hundred miles around the trade, and tomorrow is the day of the event, and the team is taken to a tree house to rest.

Not long after arriving, a team came to the door, more than a dozen qi and blood warriors, led by a flesh and blood warrior, nearly nine feet tall, with strong and swollen muscles, wearing traded animal skin clothes and pants, and having a high status in the Fire Tribe.

Yeyang estimated that he was only afraid that the leader of his tribe was not his opponent. The fair has not really started, but the fire tribe, which can be the organizer, obviously has the right of first choice for pottery and animal skin clothing.

On the side of his own tribe, the high-level leader who led the team immediately came out to deal with him, and it could be seen that she was very good at such things, her name was trade, and the tribe's transactions had always been in charge of her.

Ten clay pots, five clay bowls, for twenty catties of salt, clay pots a catty, pottery bowls are double the price of clay pots, under her introduction, the scarce number of pottery bowls, has become a symbol of dignity, natural high price.

Animal skin clothes and pants are more expensive, a long coat with two catties of salt, a trouser with three catties of salt, four sets brought, changed for twenty catties of salt, plus twenty catties of pottery, it is a full forty catties, more than the tribe's expectations.

The normal consumption of the tribe, coupled with the pickling of prey, the annual consumption is thirty catties, and ten catties can be left, but thinking that more people need to be invested in building houses in the coming year, it is inevitable to draw people from the hunting team.

There are fewer people in the hunting team, the prey will naturally decrease, and the fish meat cannot provide blood and gas, so it can only rely on salt, and the consumption of salt will also increase.

But there is no way, the tribe does have goods, but with the current strength of the tribe, it is already a great risk to take out the goods in front of them, if there are more, it will inevitably cause the fire tribe to covet it.

With the great strength of the Fire Tribe, if they raise their greed and take people to the caves to rob the tribe's property, or turn them into slaves, and make leather clothes and pottery every day, they will definitely not be able to resist.

The goods were basically exchanged, but the tribe did not leave immediately, and at the tomorrow fair, there were also a lot of materials they needed, and the pottery was gone, but they had salt! In this place, salt is definitely hard currency.

Even if it is pottery, in terms of circulation, it cannot be comparable to salt, the tribe can leave the pottery, but not the salt, the effect of salt is clear to most people, this is the foundation of the development of the tribe.

The fire tribe left the rock salt in the bamboo tube and left with the pottery and animal skins, and the burly strong man's eyes swept over the tribesmen, and the animal skin clothes and pants that fell on several warriors showed an imperceptible greed in their eyes.

He remembered that this tribe had not come to change the fire for a few years, and looking at their appearance, they should have mastered the method of making fire, and there was one less means of tribal rule, but fortunately there was still a salt mine.

There are many tribes that have learned to make fire, and the fire tribe can't control the matter of others making their own fire, and the jungle area is so large, who can manage it from time to time, at most, they can only control them, and don't trade the fire.

The next day, at the fair, Yeyang met the leader of the fire tribe, the leader was a foot tall, the whole person was like a giant ape, the muscles were extremely strong, and the arms were as thick as the waist of a normal person.

The witch was smaller, but eight feet tall, dressed in a linen-like robe, dyed with plant juice, and carrying a long cane of animal bones.

From the two of them, Yeyang felt the power of the rules, and then reacted, this is the so-called ability, the leader of the fire tribe, is a real ability warrior, giving people a strong sense of oppression.

And the fluctuation of the ability on the witch's body is much more obscure, he is not a warrior with extraordinary abilities, but a naturally awakened ability, on this continent, there are people with natural awakening abilities, but the number is very rare.

These people who are born with awakened abilities are usually not too strong in body unless they have mastered power-type abilities, and because they have been familiar with abilities since childhood, their ability to control abilities far exceeds that of ordinary ability warriors.

Such a natural awakened person is mostly a witch of various tribes, responsible for guarding the safety of the tribe, mastering the knowledge and experience of the tribe, and related to the inheritance of the tribe.

The trip to the Fire Tribe made Yeyang deeply aware of the weakness of his own tribe, and gave birth to a strong sense of urgency, and after returning to the cave tribe, he acted more dedicatedly and was enthusiastic about developing the strength of the tribe.

There are a lot of harvests at the fair, but there are only two kinds of ones that make him happy, one is a few two-foot long gourds, the tender gourds can be used for eating, and the old gourds can be used to hold water, which is much more convenient than bamboo tubes.

The other is the two pairs of buffalo horns, which he always wanted to make, but suffered from the lack of materials and the lack of power of the bow and arrow. And the price is not expensive, five gourds and a catty of salt, two pairs of horns and a catty of salt.

There are two major events in the birth season, one is the transaction, the other is the sacrifice, the end of the fair, the sacrifice should be prepared, the tribe has no witch, the sacrifice is presided over by the leader, and the rite of sacrifice is also the coming-of-age ceremony of the clan.

The object of sacrifice is the big tree at the entrance of the cave, which is strange to say, the summer and cold, the four seasons change, the surrounding jungle, the leaves fall when the leaves should fall, the strips should be drawn, the vigorous when they should be vigorous, and the withered yellow when they should be yellow.

Only the big tree in front of the cave entrance, evergreen all year round, canopy pavilion, there is no change, I don't know if it is its own strangeness, caused the worship of the tribe, or the sacrifice of the tribe, caused the strangeness of the big tree.

After returning from the jungle, Yeyang used a twig to clean a few gourds, made a kettle for water, and selected a small number of full seeds from the seeds and buried them in the fertile medicine garden.

Before he could make a bow and arrow, he was called by the chief to take part in his first hunt, and in the same year he came of age, and there were two other young men, three young girls, the young men were burly, and the young girls were also strong.

But compared to the majestic and fierce night sun, it will be much inferior, the first hunting and gathering of adults are extremely important things, and their harvest will also become one of the sacrifices of the sacrifice.

The girl carried the basket on her back and followed the gathering team to gather, and the young man followed the hunting team into the mountains, and was given a stone spear and a small stone knife, and their goal was to hunt a prey alone, an ordinary beast.

Normally, young people who have just become adults will not be too strong, and it will take a lot of effort to deal with ordinary beasts, and when they encounter fierce beasts, they will never be opponents, let alone those more brutal beasts.

Like Yeyang, who has just become an adult, he is also very rare in the Fire Tribe, and the first time he went out with the hunting team, he showed enough curiosity to keep looking at the things around him while hurrying.

Compared to the sheer curiosity of the other two, his gaze was more purposeful, and the jungle was very rich in resources, with all kinds of usable herbs, all kinds of edible plants, and all kinds of usable ores.

Passing through a certain stretch of river beach, he saw a piece of white land in the distance, and soon after the growing season, there were many remnants of unmelted ice and snow in the forest, and he thought it was like this in the distance, and when he got closer, he found something unusual.

It turned out to be a large expanse of open-air limestone! For the night sun that was preparing to build a house, it was like a heavenly help! For the current conditions of the tribe, the best material for the house to be built is sturdy and durable, and there is no other material than triad earth.

Sanhe soil is made of clay, gravel, and hydrated lime, and there is a lot of clay where the tribe burns pottery, and there is enough fine sand in the bend of the stream, which is the most important thing, and he is thinking about what to replace it.

Unexpectedly, as soon as I walked out of the tribe, I encountered limestone, which turned into quicklime after firing, and quicklime became hydrated lime when it was soaked in water.

The warrior in front was urging, Yeyang pressed the excitement in his heart, quietly noted the location, and continued to follow the team, and soon, the person who opened the road in front stopped and found a group of lively elk......
