Chapter 8 The Most Beautiful Words in the World
The second time Shao Xuan dragged the fish ashore was slightly bigger than the one just now, and he didn't let the warrior help stab him to death with a spear, Shao Xuan smashed the fish with a stone, even if it just fainted and left the water, the fish wouldn't live long.
Tie the fish with a rope and hang it on a tree, Shao Xuan took out the small point of the pierced fish that he had dragged up earlier, and found a few dry branches.
Looking around, Shao Xuanxian's two soldiers who were in charge of guarding the river bank were looking at this side curiously, so he raised his hand and beckoned.
The two soldiers who returned to the guard point hesitated, but they still couldn't suppress their curiosity and walked over.
"Ah Xuan, what are you doing here? Do you want to eat? Do you want me to help?" The warrior who had pierced the fish before was ready to go, he had already asked Shao Xuan's name and said.
They were both jealous and curious about the creature "fish", but now that the fish are dead, the jealousy has been thrown away, and only the hunter's curiosity about the new prey remains.
"I'm coming, I'm coming! Didn't you kill just now? Another warrior pushed the former out of the way, took out his stone knife, snatched the fish, and disemboweled, while discussing with his companions.
"Huh, is this a intestine? How can it be so short......
"Where's its stomach? Is this it?"
"No, it's this, this must be the stomach!"
"Be careful...... Don't break it, I don't know if there's a poison sac......"
"Where......'s the heart? Hey, you can't do it, the fish has shed so much blood, and the knife is unstable, no, I'll ......"
The two fighters over there had a heated discussion, and Shao Xuan, who was standing next to him, twitched straight on his face.
Is this a hunting warrior? This Nima is actually a quirk forensic doctor, right?
Whole two anatomy enthusiasts with an overabundance of curiosities!
No matter how broken Shao Xuan's impression of these two people is, I have to say that these two people are indeed good at dissection, even if they are just fish for the first time, they can be solved quickly. While dissecting, he also told Shao Xuan about the matters they should pay attention to when killing prey when hunting in the mountains and forests, such as which animals' internal organs are poisonous, which ones have poisonous sacs, which animals' internal organs are more delicious, and so on. For unfamiliar creatures, to be on the safe side, they have never eaten offal.
Soon, all that was left was a fish with its internal organs hollowed out, its head cut several times, and its gills cut out.
"There aren't many parts that can be eaten, but fortunately, the size is passable. The warrior with the stone knife wiped the blood from the knife and said.
Instead of washing it in the river, the two warriors just wiped the blood from the fish with leaves, then wrapped the entrails of the fish with the leaves and dug a pit next to a tree and buried it. The smell of blood may attract other things, which is okay in the tribe, but on the bank of the river, in addition to flying in the air, there may be creatures in the water that are sensitive to the smell of blood, they have to be cautious, and remind Shao Xuan to do the same when he encounters similar things in the future.
The tools used to make fire in the tribe were not as primitive as Shao Xuan had imagined at first, but with the help of a powder. Every warrior had that powder on his body, and when he lit a fire, he would take out a spoon-shaped stone tool and a stone pestle, put a little powder into the spoon-shaped tool, and use the stone pestle to grind it quickly, and soon the powder would burn, and the spoon-shaped tool would become a small torch to light the hay and branches.
Shao Xuan was very surprised when he first saw the grid in charge of transporting food in the cave, originally, he thought that such a tribe would use drilled wood for fire, or use flint and steel, but he didn't expect that there would be such a convenient and fast tool. The children in the cave did not have such a fire-taker, and had to wait until the warrior left to stand on his own before he had his own.
Sometimes looking at this tribe, Shao Xuan would feel a strange contradiction, as if the technology he mastered was not in harmony with the current exhibition of the tribe.
Doubts are doubts, and now Shao Xuan has not delved into it.
After grilling the fish, one of the warriors tried a little bit of it, and after making sure that it was okay and that it tasted good, the three of them and a wolf ate the fish in part. This bit of food was not enough for the two warriors at all, and Caesar was still not very keen on cooked food, and he was not interested in eating a little, only Shao Xuan was satisfied.
After eating the fish, the fish bones were asked by the two warriors, saying that they wanted to keep them as a souvenir, Shao Xuan felt that these two people actually wanted to take them back to show off with their teammates in the hunting team.
After that, the two warriors continued to stand guard, and Shao Xuan took Caesar and dragged the dead fish tied with ropes back to the cave.
The sky has already darkened, and some of the children in the cave have already slept, and those who have not slept are brewing sleepiness, or, waiting for Shao Xuan to come back.
There is a fire in the cave, and Ge, who transports food every day, will come over in the evening to light a small fire, so that the children in the cave can heat up or roast food, etc., and make fire for the children in the cave.
Standing at the entrance of the cave, Shao Xuan asked Caesar to wait outside the cave first, while he took a deep breath and strode into the cave.
The child who hadn't slept was a little older, and he didn't know what he was thinking around the fire, and when he saw Shao Xuan coming in, his eyes followed him. Shao Xuan could feel these hostile gazes. After all, today Shao Xuan snatched the position they had been thinking about for a long time.
After Shao Xuan entered the cave, he climbed onto a large grinding disc-shaped stone nearly one meter high near the entrance of the cave, which is usually the place where the library is used to distribute food, and standing on it, you can see every place in the cave.
The older children all gathered around this side, Shao Xuan glanced at them and clapped his hands, "Get up, get up if you haven't slept!"
Except for those who slept too deeply, everyone else in the cave gradually gathered around.
Shao Xuan saw that people were coming, so he looked at the few people in front of him and said, "I know that you are not convinced, and you are not happy that I will take over Ku's position, and you want to drive me down and come up by yourself, and you will wait for me here without sleeping at this time." This is Uncle Ge's final say, what grievances do you have, what grievances do you have, what suggestions and opinions do you have, don't face me, it's useless, there is a kind of you going to Uncle Ge!"
The children in front of them frowned, apparently thinking about the feasibility of finding Ge. Talk to Ge, will Ge get angry, will he stop eating when he is angry, will he starve if he doesn't have food? This doesn't seem to work. After all, when you are older, you think a little more than other young children.
Shao Xuan glanced over there and continued: "Have you ever thought about why I can take the position of the library, I am younger than you, not as tall as you, not as strong as you, why does Uncle Ge let me take care of it?!"
"Because I'm better than you, more capable than you!" said sonorously, lying, and not waiting for his face to change color. Shao Xuan didn't know what Ge, who was in charge of delivering the food, thought? He also planned to talk to Ge tomorrow. It's just that at the moment, what he has to do is to pass the current one first, and shake the little "wolf cubs" in the cave well, otherwise he has to prevent them from teaming up to find trouble.
It's not that Shao Xuan doesn't want to use a more relaxed method, it's just that these little cubs are too difficult to do, and reasoning won't work, and according to Shao Xuan's observation, the things decided by this person will not change for a while, so since he has put Shao Xuan in charge of this hole, it will definitely last for a while, or even longer. Shao Xuande solved the trouble at the beginning, and it was not okay if he was not strong.
The people standing in front of him were angry when they heard Shao Xuan's words, and one of them was so angry that his eyebrows were about to stand up, but before the words could be spoken, Shao Xuan yelled back: "You shut up for me!"
After speaking, Shao Xuan shouted outside the cave: "Caesar!"
Caesar, who was waiting outside the cave, bit the straw rope and dragged the tied fish in.
The eyes of the people in the cave were all on Caesar who had entered the cave, and it was not until Shao Xuan went to fetch the fish that was being dragged that he noticed that there were other things that were pulled into the cave.
"I hunted this thing!"
Shao Xuan untied the straw rope tied to the fish, revealing the true body of the fish, and lifted the tail of the fish vigorously to let the gang take a good look.
Many fish have no eyelids, do not blink, and even if they die, their eyes are wide open.
Under the not very bright firelight, the fish's originally red eyes looked a little weird and dark, and the open mouth opened and closed with the swing of Shao Xuan's hand, and the surrounding children could see the countless sharp teeth covered in the fish's mouth, and the scales of the fish body were wiped off the dust, reflecting the cold light, which added a touch of coldness to the already cool night.
The children who were closest to Shao Xuan just now couldn't help but take a few steps back, their eyes were full of vigilance, and at the same time, the gaze that looked at Shao Xuan also changed from the beginning of provocation and hostility to a little more cautious.
The tribe worships the strong, and the powerful warriors of the tribe are worshipped by the whole tribe, and many times they also prefer to use simpler and more direct methods when solving problems, such as violence. But in addition to going to war directly, you can also judge the difference in strength between the two sides according to their respective prey, and the prey you hunt is better, proving that you are stronger than others.
And now, the cave is full of children who have not yet awakened the power of totems, have not yet become totem warriors, cannot go out hunting, and cannot get prey at all, unless they go to rob. Not to mention getting such hideous prey.
It's hard to deal with at first glance, look at that tooth, how much flesh can be lost by that scrape.
"Can you hunt, can you hunt such prey, or can you get something else to eat?!you?you?you?you?you?
The children who were ordered by Shao Xuan shrank back and shook their heads.
"You can't! Since you can't, hold back all your dissatisfaction and all your feelings!"
Beat a stick to give a sweet date, and of course you have to appease after saying cruel words.
Shao Xuan lifted the fish up.
"This is the gift I gave to everyone on my first day in office!"
After Shao Xuan finished speaking, the cave was quiet for a while, and only after a while did a child ask tremblingly, "What is the 'gift'?"
The other, an older one, continued, "Can you eat it?"
Shao Xuan choked: "...... Yes. "I'm so tired.
Coax-
The atmosphere in the cave suddenly became lively.
What dissatisfaction, what caution, what resentment, all throw away.
"Eat" is probably the most beautiful word in the world for them.
