Shao Xuan lifted the curtain and walked in, Caesar also squeezed in, but it didn't dare to touch everywhere, once it was curious about an object in this room and sniffed closely, as soon as it touched it, it was pinched by the nose, and it couldn't be picked off with its claws, and the more it was picked, the tighter it became, even if Shao Xuan quickly helped it take off the clip, it still hurt for a long time. After that, Caesar was very honest every time he came here, and he only followed Shao Xuan closely, not too curious.

Ke's house is larger than most people in the vicinity, about 100 square meters, and the house is full of all kinds of stone tools, from stone cups and bowls used in daily life, to stone knives and spearheads for hunting. There are also many types, such as staghorn bones, etc., and there are also all-stone ones, but the most are composite types, that is, the combination of the first two, and the warriors in the composite tool tribe use the most.

After glancing at the hanging tools, Shao Xuan retracted his gaze and went directly to the small room where the tools were polished.

The white-haired and old-fashioned Ke sat there, because he polished the stone tools every day, and the animal skins he wore were stained with a layer of gray-white stone powder, and the hands holding the stone tools were full of calluses and a layer of gray-white.

Ke's eyes kept on the stone tool being polished, and he didn't look away just because Shao Xuan came in, as if the whole world only had the stone tool in his hand.

Because he understood Ke's character, Shao Xuan directly took out the animal skin bag, took out the two stones inside and handed them to Ke.

"Uncle Ke, can you help polish two stone knives or daggers?"

The two stones that Shao Xuan took out can only be short knives and daggers, not long.

Ke stopped what he was doing, raised his head and glanced at the stones handed over by Shao Xuan, and then looked at the two fish that Shao Xuan dragged over, "Yes, keep one." "It means that it can be polished, and it is enough to pay a fish by hand.

"I left two of them, and the other one I gave to you, thank you for your help in the past six months. Shao Xuan said with a smile.

Every time I pick up a stone that can be processed, I come to Ke here to exchange, at first Shao Xuan was not familiar with the business, and he found some bad stones, but Ke still changed food. Later, Shao Xuan was able to identify the stones, and only in retrospect did he realize that how could people who came into contact with different stones and polish stone tools every day not be able to identify the quality of the stones?

Although Ke always has a strained face and gives people a sense of alienation, he has really helped Shao Xuan a lot. In addition, two days ago, Shao Xuan also saw Ge, who was responsible for transporting food, appear here, and when he talked to Ke, his words were familiar, obviously the relationship between the two was good, Shao Xuan guessed that at that time, when the library left the cave and went up the mountain, Ge asked Shao Xuan to take over the management of the cave, which is probably the reason for this stonecraftman.

Ke frowned, and was about to speak, Shao Xuan hurriedly took out a small stone knife and handed it to Ke: "Uncle Ke, this is a stone knife that I have newly polished myself, you can take a look." ”

The stone of Shao Xuan's stone knife is not a good stone, according to the standards of stonesmiths, it only belongs to the middle and lower quality, which is slightly better than the material of those stones on the gravel ground, and it doesn't take much effort to polish it, Shao Xuan sharpened it in three days.

Ke took it and looked at it, his powdered fingers brushing lightly from the blade, and finally nodded a third of the way to the hilt, "Here, no." ”

Shao Xuan knew that experienced stoneware masters could see the shortcomings of stone tools at a glance, such as knives, and they could see the most failed parts of knife polishing. And where Ke just pointed out is to sue Shao Xuan, here, the most failed in polishing.

Why the most unsuccessful?

Shao Xuan is a layman after all, and when polishing stone tools, he just takes it for granted, the so-called technical skills in the eyes of stonesmiths, Shao Xuan doesn't understand at all, this stone knife is naturally full of failures in Ke's eyes, and the place he just pointed out is the failure of failures.

The more people he comes into contact with, the more he understands this tribe, the more Shao Xuan knows that he can't underestimate the wisdom and ability of the people here. Taking out this stone knife, Shao Xuan also wanted to learn more polishing skills from Ke.

This stone knife is just sharpened out of the shape of a knife, and it is usually used improvised, which is naturally far from the use of warriors who go out to hunt, and it is full of shortcomings in the eyes of the stone master, where it is easy to break, where it is overpolished, where it is slightly lacking in heat, etc., you can see it at a glance.

Looking at the expression on Ke's face just now, you can know that this one is not very satisfied. This is still for the sake of Shao Xuan being a child, and he has no experience in sharpening stone knives, if he changes to other warriors and gives Ke a stone tool like this, Ke will not say a word, just throw the knife away, too lazy to say, and ignore it thoroughly.

"Uncle Ke, can I learn to polish stone tools with you?" asked Shao Xuan. Now his time is not tight, and there is a whole winter coming, if he can learn some techniques for polishing stone tools, he can practice more when he is in the cave in winter, anyway, the stone is on hand by himself.

It's a pity, Ke Wenyan shook his head, "Not now, wait until you wake up." ”

What is the reason for grinding a stone and waiting for the power of the totem to awaken?

Although he was puzzled, Shao Xuan still didn't continue to ask, and he knew that he didn't want to elaborate when he looked at Ke.

Since Gram said so, he naturally has his reasons. But......

Shao Xuan calculated, after this winter, he will be ten years old. According to the situation of the other children in the cave, the early ones are all awakened at the age of eleven or twelve, and they have to wait for at least a year or two, and the later ones are like Ku, and they can only awaken at the age of thirteen or fourteen.

When you think about it, it's still a long time.

Although I can't learn it now, it's always okay to see. Shao Xuan squatted next to him and watched the stone tools polished.

Some things are simple for onlookers, and when they really get started, they know that they are completely different from what they imagined, Shao Xuan looked at the short knife that was sharpened by Ke, and then looked at what he sharpened...... Tsk, it's really better than not knowing, you don't need to look at the stone, just look at the appearance to obviously see the advantages and disadvantages, no wonder Ke just looked at the knife that Shao Xuan himself polished when his eyes were forbearing, it is estimated that he has counted thousands of sentences in his heart, and he didn't scold Shao Xuan because he was just a child.

It wasn't until it was getting dark that Shao Xuan helped set up a stone pot to light a fire, and the fish was chopped up, so he said goodbye and left, and took Caesar back to the cave.

Shortly after Shao Xuan left, Ke put the polished stone tools in the box, wiped his hands and began to prepare food. The water in the stone pot was already boiling, and when he put Shao Xuan's already cut fish in the stone pot, there was a soft sound in the window behind him, followed by the sound of swishing arrows.

"Alas!"

Boom!

The man who came in through the window fell to the ground.

Ke didn't even raise his eyes, and took the spoon and stirred it in the stone cauldron.

"Hey, I said Lao Ke, why did you change your tactics again?" hiss......" The one-armed Ge rubbed his buttocks, just now his buttocks hit the ground first, and he fell, and there was a leather rope on his feet that tightly bound his legs, otherwise he wouldn't have fallen down like this through the window, he just lacked an arm, and there was no missing leg, how could he fall so lightly under normal circumstances?

Still cursing and scolding over there, Ke continued to stir the soup in the stone pot, ignoring the that came in through the window.

Ge finally untied the leather rope and stood up, sniffed it, and immediately leaned over to the stone pot, "Fish soup?"

Glancing around the room and seeing the fish on the side, Ge smiled, "Has that kid been here?"

"......" Ke didn't say anything.

"Ah Xuan's boy dragged the fish to me yesterday to change a big bag of salt, the picture is very big, I went to the cave to see today, wow, you don't know, the hole is full of fish, this winter the little cubs are better, tsk, no wonder you recommended Ah Xuan's kid to replace the library, not to mention, it's only been a long time, the situation in the cave has changed a lot, half of the salt in my hand was replaced by that kid. Ge sighed.

There is a naturally formed salt pond near the mountain where the tribe is located, and the salt of the tribe comes from there, but the tribe has a control over the salt, and regularly gives each household a certain amount of salt to ensure the minimum needs of life. Don't think about stealing, there are soldiers guarding near the salt pond, and the people who are in charge of the things on the salt pond are the people on the mountain, and the people who go down the mountain want more salt to go up the mountain to find someone to change, but Ge is in charge of food, so he can naturally keep more in his hand, so Shao Xuan directly took the fish to find him.

Seeing that Ke was still silent, Ge found a stone bench and sat down, and said to himself, "I saw that kid sharpening the stone knife the day before yesterday, and he came here today to let you give guidance, right?" Without waiting for Ke to answer, Ge continued: "Actually, that kid is very good, he is energetic to learn, and his brain is still flexible. Since he has found it and has sincerity, why shouldn't you go down?"

Ge, who was swaying his feet, glanced at the chopped fish on the table, and his eyes fell on the stone pot that was erected, which was different from the usual way of Lao Ke's stone pot. I think it came from the hand of the kid who came over just now.

Ke shook his head, and this time he spoke: "Easy to get hurt." ”

"Also, if you haven't awakened the power of the totem, it won't be good if something happens, after all, the things you're fiddling with...... It's dangerous. ”

Ge tore off an arrow from his armpit on the fur coat, and when he came in through the window just now, he only paid attention to the arrows that were fired, and did not pay attention to the leather rope that was close to the edge of the window, and he was struck.

Obviously, it was just a small wooden arrowhead, which could be broken lightly with one finger, but just now it could penetrate the fur clothes on his body in the blink of an eye, which showed how fast it shot out.

Holding a small arrow half the length of a palm, he rotated flexibly between his fingers, and after playing for a while, he moved his fingers, and with a flick of it, the small arrow was accurately shot into the thin wooden tube hanging in the corner.

He didn't know where these little arrows came from, so he could only put them in the wooden tube first, and the wooden tube contained all the things he threw away, and when it was full, he would naturally take out all the things in it and put them back.

"Lao Ke, you have to wait, according to the physique of those children in the cave, you will have to wait for at least another two years. Ge sighed.
