Chapter 10 Unfair Matriarchal Society
Lu Au knew that he couldn't explain clearly to these people, so he had to forcibly stop them, and ordered people to go to the vicinity to cut two straight thick branches, and let people find some rattans, with the identity of a god and witch, it is good to make a good messenger, these people are unconditionally carrying her orders, and then Lu Au made a stretcher with these materials, and asked people to carefully carry Fuxi to the stretcher, and teach the two big men how to carry the stretcher.
Xi saw this new thing and said curiously: "Witch, this stretcher is really interesting, it is very good to carry the injured person, how did you come up with it." β
Lu Washen said mysteriously: "This is what the great snake god taught me!"
The chief ordered someone to carry back the body of the megalodon, this carcass of the megalodon can be eaten several times by the people of the Megalodon tribe, and the tiger skin of the megalodon is so soft and smooth, it is the best leather, and it is the most suitable for keeping out the cold.
Back in Fengli Village, the chief rearranged a thatched house for Lu Wa, this thatched house is located in the south of the village, and the south side of the village is basically inhabited by people with higher status, such as chiefs, elders, gods, clan chiefs, etc., while the north of the village is inhabited by ordinary clansmen, as well as people from other tribes.
And this time is a matriarchal society, marriage customs and later generations are just the opposite, women are married to men, men are married to women, when men marry women, they need to live in the woman's family for three to ten years, if a woman is not satisfied with her man, she can divorce the man at any time, let the man return to the original clan, and even some tribe women can marry several brothers at the same time, mainly because the medical level is low at this time, women often die when giving birth to children, which causes women to be in short supply, perhaps this is also a factor that causes the high status of women at this timeγ
The thatched house in the south, compared to the thatched house in the north, the furnishings inside are much more luxurious, the stone tools and bone tools here are twice as many as the thatched houses in the north, and the bed is also one, only enough for two people to sleep, but this thatched house is a single room, the reason why the bed is made bigger, is that the sleeping person is more comfortable, and under the bed is a thick layer of withered grass, and the withered grass is a thick layer of animal skin, sleeping on such a bed, much more comfortable than the previous straw.
Lu Au was very satisfied with her new home, which would be her fixed residence in the future, but she didn't see the two big men carrying Fuxi over before, so she asked the chief, "Where is Fuxi?"
The chief just said lightly, "Are you asking the warrior who was injured just now?"
Lu Wa nodded: "Exactly, his name is Fuxi, why don't you carry him over!"
Just now, Lu Wa was surrounded by a group of people such as the chief and the four elders and sent her here, so she didn't notice where Fuxi was being carried to!
The chief snorted and said, "I had him carried back!"
"Carried back?" Lu Ao frowned, and immediately asked, "You mean to carry him back to the thatched hut where I rested with him last night?"
The chief nodded.
Lu Wa immediately objected: "Then what's the matter, I'm here with him, we're going to be together!"
The chief glanced at Lu Wa deeply, and then asked lightly, "Is he your man?"
Lu Aoqiao blushed and shook her head.
The chief smiled slightly: "Since he is not your man, and you are our noble witch, he is not qualified to live with you!"
Lu Wa knows the rules here, but she can't adapt to the rules here, after all, she used to be in a patriarchal society, although she has achieved equality between men and women, but in fact, she is still dominated by men, and Fu Xi and her are from the same era, and now they have unexpectedly come to this strange era, if she and Fu Xi are separated, it will be difficult for her to find someone to talk to in the future.
"But he's a warrior sent by the snake god!" Lu Wa could only raise the name of the snake god.
The chief still shook his head: "But he is still a man, and men need to stand on their own feet before they start a family, so that they can become strong and protect the safety of their clansmen!"
This reason was very high, leaving Lu Au speechless, but now that Fu Xi was injured, Lu Au asked the chief to send Fu Xi over on this reason.
The chief still stubbornly shook his head: "You don't have to worry, he killed the Megalodon for us, he is the warrior of our Snake Tribe, and he is also the guardian of our Snake Tribe, and someone will take care of him." β
Although Lu Wa became the god and witch of the Long Snake Tribe, the chief of the Long Snake tribe had the most power, and she knew that she could not change the chief's decision, so she had to give up, but although she couldn't let Fu Xi live here, she could go to visit Fu Xi, because she was a god and a woman, and she could go anywhere in the village.
Lu Wa stopped talking nonsense with the chief, and out of the thatched hut, she walked straight towards the place where she had rested last night.
The chief looked at Lu Wa's back and shook her head helplessly, she really didn't understand why the new gods and witches cared so much about a man, as women, they could have a lot of men.
Fu Xi had already woken up, and when he saw that he was lying where he slept last night, he didn't see Lu Wa, and he only saw the big fly that Xi He was delivering food, so he asked, "Where is Lu Wa?"
Xi laughed happily when she saw Fu Xi wake up, but when she heard Fu Xi ask Lu Wa, she said unhappily: "She has become our witch, and grandmother has arranged for her to live in the south." β
According to the brain information in his head, Fu Xi knew that the Long Snake Tribe had regulations, and the positions of chief, patriarch, elder, and god and witch were all held by women, and these women lived in the south of the village with their families, and the others lived in the north of the village, but he was a man in later generations, how could he adapt to such unfair treatment, he shook his head and said: "I am with Lu Wa, of course we have to be together!" After speaking, he struggled to get up.
Xi lost his temper, handed his eyes to the big fly, and held Fu Xi down: "The south is not where you can go!"
Although Fu Xi was not seriously injured, but when he fought with the Megalodon, he had exhausted his strength, and he had not recovered much strength yet, so he couldn't win Xi and the big fly at all, he gasped and scolded in the language of later generations: "Who set the bullshit rules here, labor and management..." β
When Da Fei and Xi saw Lu Au coming, they hurriedly clasped their hands together and respectfully saluted Lu Ao: "Divine Witch!"
Lu Wa nodded slightly, set up a shelf for the gods and witches, and said lightly: "Well, you guys go back first!"
The big fly immediately retreated respectfully, but Xi looked at Fu Xi and Lu Au with a very complicated eye before reluctantly leaving.
Seeing that the big fly and Xi left, Lu Wa spoke: "You also know, the rules here are like this, I have already reasoned with the chief just now, but she insisted on letting you live here, we have just arrived, it seems that we can only follow their rules, besides, it is not convenient for us to live together." β
The words behind Lu Au were inaudible.
Fu Xi let out a long sigh: "It is said that the primitive society is communist, everyone is equal, and it is a lie, no, I am a dignified man, how can I be bullied by these women, I must change the rules here." β
Lu Au was silent, as a woman, it stands to reason that she unexpectedly came to this matriarchal society, for her, it is really like a fish in water, and she is now a noble witch, she can live a prosperous life here as a witch, and she can even look down on all living beings, before she saw the people of the Long Snake Tribe kneeling down to her devoutly, she had already experienced a very exciting feeling, but after all, she is a person from the next generation, it is difficult to change the original inherent worldview for a while, and at the same time, she and Fuxi are from the same era, and the subconscious in her heart tells her that she and Fuxi's fate has been tightly combined, she can't watch Fuxi being treated unfairly.
So at this moment, Lu Wa was very conflicted in her heart, should she support Fuxi to change the rules here, or should she persuade Fuxi to give up this unrealistic idea?
