Chapter 42: The Storm of Moving Trees
After Xiao Hei and Sifanni finished dealing with it, it was already completely dark, and everyone was eating by the campfire, Chu Wei said, "Men hurry up and eat, and then follow me to the waterhole to carry a few trees back." ”
"Carrying a tree?" Everyone wondered, why did you carry the tree back? The leader hadn't gone hunting all day, and he didn't know what he was doing.
"Yes, let's eat, and you'll know what to do when you bring it back." After Chu Wei finished speaking, he put a large piece of meat in his mouth. The other clansmen also sped up their eating, only the women were still drinking the soup slowly, and Sang Zhen asked Xiao Rara: "What did Mo Yi'er and the leader do by the waterhole during the day?" ”
"We're digging trees!" Xiao Ra is very hardworking, so the women like him more.
"Digging trees? What the hell are you going to do? "Women are always the most curious, so I want to know sooner.
"Mo Yi'er said that she wanted to make a bucket, maybe it was similar to the kettle she made last time!" Xiao Ra guessed, but thought that the whole tree had been dug up, and it must be a big kettle. So, big kettle = bucket. There is actually nothing wrong with the logic of Xiao Rara, in short, they are all vessels for water.
The men filled their stomachs in ten minutes, and then went to the waterhole with a hula la. Mo Yi'er put down the barbecue that she hadn't finished eating, picked up a fire from the campfire and said to Sang Zhen: "Sang Zhen, let's go too, take a torch to light them up." ”
Although the moonlight is very bright, it is better to hold a torch to illuminate it if you want to lift a tree.
"Good!" Sang Zhen hurriedly put down the food, picked up the torch excitedly, and followed Mo Yi'er and them to the waterhole. When the clansmen saw the fallen tree, they were shocked, and even said that the leader and Mo Yi'er were so powerful.
"And me, I also dig trees!" Xiao Ra, who also came with him, shouted unwillingly lonely, wanting to be praised. Everyone laughed for a while, and Mo Yi'er touched Xiao Ra's chicken nest very seriously: "Yes, and you, you are also very powerful." Eat plenty of food so that you can get stronger and stronger. ”
"Mo Yi'er, don't worry, I will definitely be strong in the future, and when the leader and Bang Ge are old, I will protect you!" Xiao Ra patted his chest and said very seriously, which made Mo Yi'er laugh, but Chu Ji and Bang Ge's eyes were much more complicated!
In Mo Yi'er's eyes, Xiao Lara is just a child, but in front of other clansmen, Xiao Lara is already about to have signs of adulthood, and Mo Yi'er has short hair and short stature, even if she is an adult, it is not much older than Xiao Rat, and it is entirely possible for the two of them to develop an impure relationship between men and women.
However, this was only an episode, and the tribe soon got into the work of moving the trees, starting with two smaller ones. The 12 adult men of the hunting team were divided into two teams, a team of six people, the first team was Chu Ji and five other men, and Mo Yi'er's torches followed the lighting! The second team of Bang Ge took five other men, and it was Sang Zhen who was illuminated. Xiao Ra also lit a torch and walked in the front, where there are big stones and places up and down the slope, there will be a shout, this road people have walked many times, there should be no accidents, but for the sake of safety, Mo Yi'er felt that it was better to be cautious and let Xiao Ra go to explore the road.
All the way, the two small trees were quickly carried to the open space in front of the cave, and the women and children hurriedly gathered around, watching curiously and chattering about something.
The bearer of the tree and the light returned the same way, this time with twelve people working together to carry the tree. Mo Yi'er was a little worried, she asked Chu Ji, "Is it okay?" This tree is so thick! ”
"No problem!" Chu Wei didn't think so, they were all men in strong clothes, what would happen? Could this tree be more dangerous than a ferocious beast?
Chu Wei was at the front of the big tree, and Wan Ge was at the back, different from carrying the small tree just now, Mo Yi'er made them use different methods. Just now, six people were carrying it vertically, but this time it was a group of two, on the left and right sides of the tree, so that even if the tree was thick, it would not cause it to fall off the shoulder.
The clansmen were of different heights, but the adults were not too different, and Mo Yi'er lined them up according to each other. In the direction of the cave, there was a slight downhill road, and Mo Yi'er arranged the tall clansmen in front and Chu Ji in a group, and so on, with the shortest and the shortest ones in the back. This is a bitter man, although he is young, but he is not the youngest.
When the line was over, the men shouted and lifted the tree. Chu Wei sighed: "I didn't expect it to be so heavy!" "Obviously, 12 men carrying the big tree together is much more laborious than just 6 people carrying the small tree.
After only walking forward for more than 20 steps, everyone was a little overwhelmed, and the 12 people were not in the same step, so they didn't make any effort to go anywhere, Chu Ji and Man Ge, the two front and back people, couldn't help but break out in a cold sweat. When he walked through a small slope, the python's feet slipped, and he stood in the middle, Xu was a little tired from taking care of Sifenni before, and he didn't stabilize his balance, so he fell down. Suddenly, the pole tilted down to his side, and the other five men on that side lost their center of gravity.
said that it was too late, Sang Zhen threw the torch and ran over, resisting the position of the python's previous shoulder. Thankfully, everyone was saved!
"Stop for a moment and put the tree down." Mo Yi'er was shocked into a cold sweat, this tree has branches and leaves, it is not easy to carry, if it wasn't for Sang Zhen's quick reaction just now, and her body also had some strength, the five men over there might have been crushed under the big tree.
The tribesmen obediently put the tree on the ground, and they all sat on the ground panting.
"Sang Zhen, thank you!" The craftsman python looked at the woman he once liked with gratitude, if the trunk of the tree pressed on him just now, he would be half crippled if he didn't die!
Sang Zhen smiled and shook his head at him: "Why don't I come, you are tired of taking care of Sifanni and have no strength." ”
"But...... You are a woman......" The python's face was ugly, he was so embarrassed that he asked a woman to help him?
"What's wrong with the woman? There's so much a woman can do! What men can do, most women can, but what women can do, you men may not be able to, such as having children! Mo Yi'er could probably see what the python was struggling with, she was not used to this feeling of despising women. What's more, if he continues to hold on now, it is very likely that everyone will be injured. There were still about a few minutes to go, and Mo Yi'er believed that Sang Zhen would definitely be able to persevere until she carried the big tree back to the front of the cave.
