When Ye Xi woke up, he felt that his feet were cold, and when he looked down, he found that the water had already reached the instep of his feet.

By this time, the thunder had stopped outside, and the rain had become much lighter.

But the sky was still dark, and the clouds in the sky were cascading so that the sun could not let in.

The crowd put their prey back on their backs.

This time, if there is time, it can be tied with a tough vine, and Xiao Te, a dinosaur beast, bears the weight of two brown bears, and the others are much easier.

In the jungle.

After a night of torrential rain, the jungle seemed to be flooded, and in the low-lying places, the water was even more knee-high.

The towering green ancient trees seemed to be submerged by the clear stream, and there were a few small fish in it, which swam up from the river because of the rising water.

The movement of the warriors and Xiao Te, the dinosaur beast, was blocked, but Jiaojiao was like a fish in water, and its speed was faster than before.

In the light rain, stepping on the clear and shallow forest stream, everyone returned to the tribe.

At this time, there was no one in the tribe's clearing because of the rain.

Chief Yong and the others were standing near the entrance of the cave, and when they saw them coming back completely, their faces were happy, and they strode out.

"You're all right, yesterday the thunder was so big, we were worried all night. Yong asked as he took their prey.

The prey on Luo's hand was picked up by the warehouse, so he finally had his hand to wipe the rain on his eyes: "The thunder yesterday was indeed dangerous, but we were lucky enough to run into the cave in time and were not struck by the thunder." ”

The dolphin habitually walked into the cave, and found that the cave was full of water, as if flowing into a dark river: "Ah, our cave is also flooded." ”

However, the cave is low, which is also predictable.

"Yes, it rained a lot last night, and the rain kept spilling in through the cracks, and lying down could completely flood people, and we all slept sitting last night. ”

"So we started moving to the top of the hill this morning. ”

Hunting a squad of warriors, you say a word to me.

Ye Xi remembered that there were still things in his cave, so he said, "Then I'll go and take out my things." ”

Yong stopped him: "No need to go, we will help you move the things in your cave to the top of the mountain." ”

Now that everything had been moved to the mountain, the crowd didn't say anything more and walked straight to the top of the mountain.

The soil on the mountain was soaked by the rain and was so soft and sticky that it was a deep pit when you stepped on it.

Xiao Te is a dinosaur, not very agile in climbing the hill, let alone so slippery, the huge body almost fell over, but Pu Tai and a few people pulled it back by the tail.

On the top of the mountain.

More than a dozen simple and heavy bluestone houses stand in the rain.

In the middle of these bluestone houses, there is also a house that has not yet been completed. The clansmen gathered around and were busy making the final repairs.

Many of these busy people were tribal slaves, and most of them were female slaves.

Although the primitive tribes would take care of women, female slaves were not within the scope of care, and would do some heavy work that only men do.

But a pregnant slave girl is different, she can stay in the house and rest and do light work.

Ye Xi saw that there was a large stone jar in front of each stone house, so he asked Yong: "Uncle Yong, what is this for?"

"The stone jar is used to catch rainwater in preparation for the dry season. ”

"Then why don't you put a few more jars?" Ye Xi counted and found that there were only about twenty, and he remembered that there were obviously fifty stone jars in the tribe.

Yong's eyes showed helplessness: "Once the water in the tank is left for a few months, it will stink, and people will have diarrhea when they drink it, and people in the tribe have even drunk it to death." So it's useless to save more, these are enough. ”

Ye Xi suddenly realized that the people in the tribe didn't know how to purify the filtered water, and it was not distilled water, how could it not be bad if it was left for so long.

A group of warriors stood in the middle of the bluestone house, and the chiefs assigned their quarters one by one.

"Locke, Antelope...... How many of you live in this house. The chief pointed to one of the bluestone houses.

"Litu, Hulu, Jiao...... How many of you live in that house. ”

......

"Ye Xi, Pu Tai, cone, and turquoise, let's live together, let's go. ”

There were more than 200 people in the tribe, and the time and space were limited, and it was impossible to build a house for each family.

Now there are about 20 ordinary people living in one room, 30 slaves living in one room, and Wu living in a separate room.

With so many people living together, the accommodation conditions can be imagined.

But there is still preferential treatment at the top of the tribe, and there will be fewer people in the house. Ye Xi is a disciple of Wu, and Pu Tai is a second-level warrior, so he is naturally counted.

And the father who died in the cone was a second-level warrior of the tribe, so the cone can also live in this house as a family member.

As for the Turks, it was the chief's son, not to mention.

Ye Xi and the others followed the chief into the quaint bluestone house.

A warm and dry breath suddenly came to the face.

The floor of the stone house is also covered with thick bluestone slabs, but a square bare ground is left in the middle, which is built into a small fire pit, and the bottom is full of dry firewood for making fires.

At this moment, there was a small fire burning on the fire, which made the house warm and dry.

"Father!" Putai's son Tao rushed up like a small cannonball, hugging his legs.

Putai smiled and picked him up.

There were four women sitting in the room, namely the chief's companion Duo, Pu Tai's companion Shuiwen, and the cone's mother and his new companion Ling.

Originally, these four women were sewing things with their heads down, and when they saw them coming back, they hurriedly greeted them. Seeing that the men were drenched, they took a few pieces of dry animal skins and rubbed them on them.

Tao got off Pu Tai, immediately jumped up and ran to Ye Xi's feet, tilted his head and said, "Brother Ye Xi, what kind of prey did you hunt yesterday?"

Tao admires Ye Xi very much, and always likes to stick to him and talk to him.

Ye Xi touched Tao's head and said softly: "The prey is at the door, just look outside." ”

Tao just cared about his father, and he didn't notice the prey piled up at the door, and turned his head to look when he heard the words: "Wow, there are brown bears and dinosaurs!"

At this time, there were already clansmen outside dealing with their prey.

Tao ran out of the house to see it up close.

Although it was raining lightly outside, his Eminem Water Pattern didn't stop him.

The primitive human body is good, even if Tao is only four years old, he will not get sick if he is drenched in a little rain.

Ye Xi saw a pile of long cylindrical things sewn from fur in the corner of the room, and a pile of half-sewn things next to it, so he wondered, "What is this?"

Duo smiled and picked up two of the cylinder furs and handed them to Ye Xi: "It's for the feet, you try it, this pair is made for you." ”

Ye Xi took them and bent down to put them on one by one.

These two cylinders of fur resemble stockings, and the material is very thick, and a set of them immediately generates a heat on the calves.

Ye Xi did so and asked strangely, "What is this for?"

Cone grinned and rushed to say, "I won't tell you first, you'll know tomorrow!"

Still selling Guanzi? Ye Xi smiled and didn't ask.

The cone waited for a while, and when he saw that Ye Xi didn't continue to ask him, the corners of his upturned mouth were pressed down boringly.

Early the next morning.

Ye Xi was awakened by a burst of delicious food aroma.

When I sat up, I saw a stone pot on the fire in the house, and the soup in the stone pot was bubbling with small bubbles.

Ling, the new companion of the cone next to the stone pot, was looking at the fire, and when she saw Ye Xi waking up, she smiled and said, "Wake up, come and drink some broth!" said and slowly scooped a large bowl with a wooden spoon.

Ye Xi lifted the animal skin blanket covering his body, walked over and took the broth with both hands.

At this time, only the cone in the house was still sleeping, and the others were not in the house.

Jiaojiao's huge body was originally entrenched next to Ye Xi, still sleeping with his eyes closed, but when he saw Ye Xi wake up, he also opened his scarlet eyes, slowly moved his body and crawled to Ye Xi's side, and rubbed Ye Xi with the huge snake head.

Ye Xi smiled and patted its head: "Look at how much space you occupy in the house, we are all going to sleep together." ”

Jiaojiao spit out the snake letter.

Ye Xi slowly drank the broth in the bowl.

This wooden bowl is a bowl for totem warriors, and it is said to be a bowl, but it is actually about the same size as a basin.

Because the totem warriors eat a lot, they have to serve at least seven or eight times in ordinary people's bowls, which is too troublesome, so they simply make it bigger.

Ye Xi drank the broth and returned the wooden bowl to Ling: "Is there any food for Jiaojiao, and where did the others go?"

"You'd better not feed Jiaojiao now. ”

A sleepy voice sounded behind itself.

Ye Xi turned around, and it turned out that the cone woke up.

After the cone stretched, a carp got up from the ground: "Everyone else has gone to the bottom of the mountain." ”

Cone said as he walked over to Ling, kissed his partner vigorously, and took the broth she had served for herself.

Ye Xi raised his eyebrows slightly: "At the foot of the mountain...... Is there something coming with the water, or is it food that we can hunt?"

Cone rolled his eyes and shouted, "Didn't I say you can't be stupid, so that I can leave some mystery?"

Now that the rain is on the ground, most of the creatures have migrated to other places, or hid in the mountains, and there are no other aquatic creatures at the foot of the mountains?

Of course, so many people went down, and it was possible that a big guy broke in.

But looking at the unhurried appearance of the two of them, obviously not, then the answer must be food.

On the other side, Ling snickered, feeling that her partner was really like a naïve child sometimes.

The cone gulped down the broth, wiped his mouth, and said, "Go, take the animal skin and wrap your feet, and we'll go too." ”
