Said to be a settlement, in fact, there were only about two dozen apes in front of Zheng Jun's eyes, these apes pulled out weeds by the river to clear a small clearing, and then used the weeds and a few branches to build a simple tent, these tents are only half, obviously not sheltered from the wind, maybe barely able to keep out the snow, but it is difficult to keep out the rain.

Five or six weed tents were scattered across the small flat field, with only a fire in the center, and scattered around it the bones of some animals, perhaps in the habit of eating cooked food. These apes were similar in height to the previous two, and their bodies were not thin, so it seemed that they were not too short of food. Zheng Jun really can't distinguish between men and women from their appearance, so they can only speculate from their body size, and the smaller ones are counted as women, and the apes living in each tent are big and small, so it seems that they also have a certain family concept.

Zheng Jun remembered that the Yuanmou ape-men already had the ability to use stone tools, and it was said that these ape-men stayed by the river, and there were many stones that could be used, but there was no sign of using tools in the entire settlement, and a few stronger ape-men were holding wooden sticks, but they only removed the thicker branches and split them, and some still had leaves left on the sticks. These ape-men are significantly more primitive than the Yuanmou ape-men.

The ape-man who had led the way for Zheng Jun danced and let out some noises of unknown meaning, attracting the surrounding ape-men.

If these apes can be organized to hunt mammoths, it will definitely be much safer than Zheng Jun fighting alone, and letting these apes help carry the ivory back to the camp can also maximize their own profits, as long as the elephant meat is left for them, they can be regarded as taking what they need, and they don't owe each other.

Although these apes can communicate with each other simply, but the vocabulary should be very monotonous, there is no way to tell a slightly complicated situation, Zheng Jun's leading party called everyone over, and the comparison was not clear for a long time, and those apes showed obvious puzzled expressions on their faces.

Zheng Jun had no choice but to go out on his own and draw a picture of a mammoth on the ground, and through the picture, he expressed the situation roughly.

An ape-man leaned up, stretched out his hand, and shook his head violently as he made a gesture to the ivory on the painting, clearly expressing his fear of the mammoth. In this kind of primitive tribe, the leader must be the first to come out, he doesn't look stronger than other apes, maybe it's because of age, Zheng Jun can't see their age, and he's not sure about it.

Since there is a leader, it is enough to convince him. And if you want to convince people, it is just four ways: moving with affection, seducing with profit, knowing with reason, and coercing with coercion. Reason and reason are definitely impossible, Zheng Jun feels that he has nothing to threaten them, and in the end, there is only one trick left to lure them to their advantage.

Any thing on Zheng Jun's body is a priceless treasure for these apes, and every thing is a weapon of survival. But Zheng Jun still has a return trip to run, and he doesn't plan to go to the forest with all the equipment.

However, it is not without other ways, and it is a great benefit for a traverser like Zheng Jun to help these apes click on the technology tree.

Since you want to hunt, of course, you still have to point to the technology tree in terms of weapons, take the stones by the river and smash them directly, and finally find the right size and one side is sharper, and directly use some weeds to roll into a bundle and tie it to a wooden stick, and a simple stone axe is made. Striking at a branch, it easily split in half, and the apes on the side let out a burst of exclamation, and the leader took the stone axe with a look of love.

Other apes don't need to be so troublesome, always give the leader some special treatment, just pick a usable stone, use it as a stone knife, and cut one end of the wooden stick about a few times A simple short spear was born, after all, it is a mass-produced type, so it's good.

This short spear already has basic lethality, and Zheng Jun made a spear stabbing motion into the air, and he also gained a lot of amazement. However, the other apes still stared at the stone axe, looking quite dissatisfied, but the leader of the ape held the stone axe and yelled a few times to suppress it, and it seemed that the leader who got the stone axe was more prestigious.

It seemed that an agreement had finally been reached, and the leader was holding a stone axe, and the other apemen were holding short spears, and they set off with Zheng Jun in high spirits.

When Zheng Jun walked out of the forest, the snow had stopped for a while, and there was no snow to be seen on the grassland, although the sky had been shrouded in clouds and fog to see the sun clearly, but the temperature was not too cold. I thought that it was the late stage of the Ice Age, and the weather was like this, but I knew that Zheng Jun was so naïve, not only miscalculated the time, but also underestimated the Ice Age.

Not long after they set out, it was bustling with snow, but it didn't look big. I was going to move on, but I didn't expect the snow to get heavier and heavier, and the sky was covered by snowflakes, and I gradually began to lose sight of the direction.

Seeing that the snow is not decreasing at all, it is completely impossible to continue hunting, and if you delay for a while, you may get lost in the heavy snow and lose your life.

Before they could lose their way, the group ended the operation in embarrassment and fled back to the ape-man camp.

By the time they returned to the camp, the snow had been quite heavy, and the sky was blank, and it was impossible to see people five or six meters away.

In this weather, there is no way to find mammoths before the snow stops, and Zheng Jun can only prop up the tent and wait for the snow to stop.

The snow did not stop for two days until the third day. By this time, the snow had accumulated almost a meter high, and the entire grassland was covered with snow. The simple tents in the camp had long been buried in the snow and there was no shadow to be seen. However, thanks to the thick hair on their bodies, these ape-men looked like a lot, and they also came out one by one when the snow was small, clearing the snow and salvaging food.

Previously, Zheng Jun only deduced from the physical condition of the ape-men that they did not lack much food, but he did not expect that they already had the advanced concept of private property. Each tent contained food, a few of which were plant fruits, most of which were various kinds of meat, and it was unknown how the ape-men, who had no weapons or tools, hunted the food.

Now is obviously not a good time to continue to pay attention to private property, although there is a lot of food, but each ape can only support the appearance of two or three days. There are still some dry food in Zheng Jun's bag, these are high-energy compressed dry food, and the rest is enough for him to eat alone for 20 days. But the apes were obviously very dangerous, and it was clear that such a thick snow could no longer be hunted, and if the snow did not melt quickly, the apes were almost on the verge of starvation.

At this time, the leader of the ape, tent by tent, collected all the food, relying on the threat of the stone axe, and no ape-man dared to resist. Although even Zheng Jun could see the dissatisfaction of the other apes, only a unified rationing system could now extend the time that the limited food could sustain.

Zheng Jun was secretly vigilant in his heart, he couldn't imagine that an ape-man tribe that was primitive to stone tools could give birth to such a forward-looking leader, who was not inferior to the leaders of the planned economy era!
