Chapter 1 Terran tribe, Mo Fan was born
Cangmang mountain range, between the towering mountains, poisonous insects and beasts are rampant, fierce birds and different species are infested, threatening the survival of the human race at all times, and the mountains are high and dense, the terrain is steep and complex, and the vines and grasses are thick, resulting in many inconveniences, so it is deserted, and few human beings live here.
Located on the edge of the rolling mountains, near the source of small streams and rivers, the relatively calm and gentle hilly area is scattered among many Terran tribes. Far away from the deep mountains and ravines, there are few powerful fierce birds and beasts entrenched. These tribes, ranging from tens to hundreds of small tribes, can be tens of thousands, and live an extremely primitive hunter-gatherer life from sunrise to sunset.
But even so, from time to time, hungry beasts run out of the primeval mountains and forests, break into the gathering places of the Terran tribes, invade the tribes, kill and devour the Terrans, and bring disasters and destruction to the Terran tribes.
The Terrans live in this wild land with great difficulty, and they do not know the future of the race.
Under the night sky, on a large mountain with sparse trees and abundant weeds, there is still a faint bit of fire flickering, revealing a soft and dim light, illuminating the mountain. It's calm and tranquil, and it's special in the night, starry sky, beasts roaring in a wild world.
When I got closer, I realized that this was a gathering place for the Terran tribe. Hundreds of rudimentary stone houses, made of flat boulders and wood and weeds, are scattered along the mountainside. With a population of two or three thousand, it was already a large tribe in the wilderness on the edge of the mountains.
In the middle of this tribal settlement, there are several quaint stone houses that cover a large area. Directly in front of the stone house stood four or five rough black and shiny stone pillars, on which were placed black pottery. The pottery contained a liquid of molten beast fat, which burned and sometimes made a 'snort' sound. The fire on the mountain was caused by the burning of animal oil in clay pots.
The flames on the stone pillar swayed in the wind, and the dim halo diffused to illuminate the surroundings, and next to the lamp, a tall man with a back stood there.
The bright light of the fire dispelled the heavy night, reflecting Mo Long's burly and upright figure. He was wearing a beast skin coat sewn from the fur of a fierce beast, his long black hair was scattered behind his back in a random manner, the muscles of his whole body were high and bulging, his qi and blood were extremely vigorous, and a strong fierce aura was unconsciously revealed from his body.
His face was angular, like a knife and axe, his temperament was masculine and powerful, and his two dark eyes were blazing, revealing the light of tenacity and confidence, which was particularly attractive under the white light of the moon in the night sky and the red halo of the black stone pillar next to him.
It's just that at this moment, Mo Long's expression was nervous, his two huge fists were clenched, pacing back and forth in front of the firelit house, and he stopped from time to time, glancing at the stone house, and his attention was all attracted by the movement inside.
The screams of women in pain were heard from the stone house, occasionally mixed with the anxious noise of the women. When Mo Long heard these voices, he was even more anxious, and the idea of pushing open the door of the stone house and entering popped up several times in his mind, but his thoughts kept struggling to choose between entering and not entering, which was extremely contradictory. In the end, he held back, stopped his steps forward, and continued to pac in front of the stone house.
Mo Long is the patriarch of this tribe of thousands of people, and he is also the most powerful warrior in this tribe. Only a powerful tribal leader can take on the duty and mission of protecting the tribe, leading the tribe to hunt in the dangerous mountains and forests to obtain enough food to make the tribe thrive and survive in this wild land.
In the firelit stone house, the gray-black boulder walls were uneven and extremely rough, and they were covered with all kinds of specially concocted beast furs, and a strong wild atmosphere came to the face.
In the innermost part of the stone house, there is a large bed made of huge stones, on which is covered with a complete and huge animal skin, which can also be seen from the basic characteristics of the animal skin, which is the fur of the fierce black bear.
Qu Rou was lying on the bed with a big belly, she was also wearing a beast skin coat, but unlike Mo Long who looked strong like a beast on her body, the beast skin clothes she wore on her body looked extremely delicate, exuding a primitive wild and sultry charm. Her hair was black and thick, smooth as silk, tied with a thin band of animal skin, scattered on the bed, her skin was a healthy wheat color, and her eyes were crystal clear. Her appearance is not very beautiful, but it is very attractive, and people can't help but feel close to it when they look at it.
At this time, Qu Rou's face was as pale as snow, and her forehead and the tip of her nose were covered with soybean-sized droplets, and the sweat gathered and flowed down her cheeks. She clutched the black bear skin under her with both hands, crumpled the fur blanket into a ball, kicked and kicked her feet incessantly, and let out a loud roar from time to time in her mouth, obviously her body was suffering a lot.
"Ah......h
Screams of pain passed through the walls of the stone house and into the firelit night outside. When Mo Long heard this voice, his face became even more worried, and his wandering steps couldn't help but speed up a lot, and a cloud of dust was raised under his feet.
After a while, he stopped, stood by the lamplit stone pillar, looked at the mountains in the distance, looked pious and solemn, and prayed in a low voice:
"Ancestor bless, I must let my family Rou'er give birth smoothly......"
In the stone house, three middle-aged women in their thirties and forties stood beside the stone bed, looking anxious and sweating profusely, hurriedly taking care of Qu Rou, who was about to give birth.
A woman stood at the head of the bed, gently wiping the sweat from Qu Rou's forehead and cheeks, a woman walking up and down the floor, helping to pass things, and another standing at the end of the bed doing the work of delivering babies, with comforting and encouraging voices coming out of her mouth from time to time.
"Hold your breath, don't relax...... Right...... Forcefully, that's it. ”
"It's coming, the kid is coming out, try harder, harder. ”
......
The night was getting dark, and the roar of the fierce beasts in the distant mountains did not stop, but intensified, and the moon passed the middle of the sky, and the time was already after the third watch.
Moron was pacing anxiously outside the house, when suddenly, he heard several distinctly more painful roars coming from the stone house, faintly mixed with the cry of a baby. Then, the sound that had been lingering in his ears came to an abrupt end, and then his beating heart seemed to calm down with the whole world.
In a moment, the relaxed laughter of the women was heard from the stone house.
Mo Long, who was pacing outside the door, heard these noises, and already had a guess in his heart, but he didn't know what the situation was inside, and he was extremely anxious. He walked quickly to the door of the stone house, looked at the door that had not been opened for a long time, and was determined to open it.
At this moment, the door of the house, which had not been opened for a long time, suddenly opened to him, and three women with happy expressions pushed open the door and walked out of the stone house. When the woman walked out of the house, she saw Mo Long who was about to push the door in, and immediately congratulated him with a happy face.
"Gave birth, patriarch, mother and child are safe, and gave birth to a white and chubby little cub. ”
"Congratulations to the patriarch......"
When Mo Long heard this congratulatory voice, he didn't understand in his heart. The look of anxiety and worry on his face flickered, and in an instant it was replaced by excitement and joy, and he laughed and said to the three women who were about to leave.
"Thank you for your help, several aunts have worked hard, take a few pieces of animal meat and go back." ”
After several women said hello to the patriarch Mo Long, they packed up their things and were about to leave. Hearing this, the joy on his face was even worse, and he hurriedly thanked the patriarch Mo Long.
In this land, people have not had enough to eat. The mountains and forests are very dangerous, fierce beasts and poisonous insects are rampant, and every time the tribe's hunting team enters the mountains to hunt, there may be people who bleed and are injured, or even lose their lives. Food is extremely precious to the tribesmen who live in the mountains.
Therefore, when Moron asked the women to give them a few pieces of animal meat, the women would be grateful to Molon. The tribesmen are extremely simple and kind, and if the tribesmen need help with anything, the other tribesmen will help, which is in their opinion. People's minds are straightforward, and there are not so many scheming and deceit.
Mo Long pushed open the door of his stone house and walked to one of the walls of the house. There are more than a dozen pieces of smoked and dried animal meat hanging on the wall, and on the ground next to the wall, there are also several black clay pots that are enough to hold dozens of catties of rice noodles, which contain some coarse wheat and sun-dried wild fruits, but at this time they have bottomed out. He took off several large pieces of animal meat that hung on the wall and handed them to the women, and then there was not much animal meat left on the stone wall.
After sending the concubines with the beast meat away, Mo Long's face was full of excitement, and he walked quickly into the softly lit stone house. The flickering light of the fire in the stone house emitted a dim yellow light, like the setting sun about to set, illuminating the dwelling, making people feel extra warm.
In the innermost part of the room, on the big bed covered with soft animal skins, Qu Rou leaned on a high animal skin pillow, a few strands of sweat-soaked hair stuck to her bloodless face, covered with animal skin quilts, her delicate face looked haggard, but her expression was very happy, with a trace of excitement after becoming a mother, her eyes were full of love, looking at the baby tightly wrapped in a soft animal skin in her arms, and her whole body exuded the brilliance of motherhood, like a mother beast licking her child dotingly.
The baby wrapped in animal skins, white and fat, the dirt on the body during childbirth has been wiped clean by the woman, the body is white and smooth, the pink little hands, there is a small handful of yellow hair in the middle of the little head, the eyes have been opened, the two small black eyes turn, as if curiously looking at this new world, looking very bright, very lovely.
The aura of the wild world is extremely rich, and the baby who is still in the mother's womb has been nourished by rich spiritual power, and the body is extremely healthy, even when he was born, there is no wrinkle on his body, his skin is smooth and tender, and the whole person is like a delicate porcelain doll.
Mo Fan had been waiting outside the door for a long time, he had already been so excited that he couldn't help himself, three steps and two steps, trotting into the stone house quickly, and came directly to the bedside, the tall and burly body blocked the light released when the beast oil fire lamp burned, casting a huge shadow on the ground of the stone house, he looked at the haggard woman on the bed, his eyes were full of affection, and there was even a trace of gratitude flickering.
The two looked at each other, both saw each other in each other's eyes, and also saw each other's affection, although they did not speak, they had already understood each other's thoughts from each other's eyes.
Mo Long looked at Qu Rou, who was pale and haggard, and felt distressed, his excited expression was slightly restrained, and he said softly: "Rou'er, you have worked hard. ”
Hearing Mo Long's considerate words, Qu Rou couldn't help but feel a warm heart, the pain and exhaustion of her body that were originally torn after childbirth seemed to have been reduced a lot, she looked at Mo Long with a straight nose and an angular face, the corners of her mouth were slightly raised, and she smiled at him, showing a happy and sweet smile on her haggard and pale face.
Mo Long sat on the edge of the stone bed, next to Qu Rou, bent the tiger's waist, lowered his head slightly, and looked at the baby wrapped in soft animal skin in Qu Rou's arms with loving eyes.
Qu Rou noticed Mo Long's excited and eager gaze when she looked at the baby in her arms, and instantly understood his thoughts, she sat up with support, smiled and handed the child wrapped in her arms to Mo Long, and said:
"Be careful to hold your child and shake it gently. ”
Mo Long nodded vigorously, his face was full of happiness, he stretched out his big hand like a fan, and gently took the baby wrapped in animal skin from Qu Rou's hand, and saw that the baby wrapped in animal skin in his hand had two small black eyes staring at him, and he immediately showed the happiest smile in his life to the child. Then, he raised his head again and said to Qu Rou with an excited expression:
"Rou'er, the little one was just staring at me. ”
Qu Rou looked at Mo Long with a happy smile on her face, her heart was extremely satisfied, she endured the pain and discomfort in her body after childbirth, supported the stone bed covered with bear skin with both hands, slowly sat up, looked at Mo Long's resolute face, and said to him: "You give the child a name." ”
Mo Long looked at the baby wrapped in animal skin in his hand, felt his son's white and tender little hand grasping his index finger, thought carefully, after a while, his eyes suddenly lit up, and blurted out: "Mo Fan, our son's name is Mo Fan, which means that he was born extraordinary, and I hope that when he grows up in the future, he can crisscross the barren mountains and lead the tribe to become strong." ”
"Mo Fan, Mo Fan......" Qu Rou heard the name, her mouth kept chattering, and a look of joy gradually appeared on her face.
"Son, you have a name, your name is Mo Fan, do you like it?" Mo Long said jokingly as he gently teased the baby wrapped in animal skin with his fingers.
Time passed imperceptibly, and in the room, which gradually quieted down, Mo Long sat on the edge of the bed, his burly figure concealed the soft light of the fire, and on the bed lay a pale and haggard woman with a happy face, holding a sleeping baby in her arms.
The red-glowing fire in the stone house shines through the gaps in the stone walls, illuminating the dark and savage world in the distance, quiet and warm in the noisy dark night full of killing cruelty tonight.
