Chapter 21: The Return and the New Plan
The way back was quite smooth, except for encountering three or two beasts that Chen Xu called porcupine, which brought them some gains, there were no other problems.
After three hours of trekking, this mighty army finally came out of the dense forest and came to the front of the hill when it was getting dark.
Separated from the dense forest, Chen Xu led the apes to the top of the mountain, so that these apes were now on the top of the mountain, and he himself climbed the rope to enter the cave.
Seeing Chen Xu's return, the ape-men who stayed in the cave naturally came out to greet him, and after checking, Chen Xu found that the ten ape-men had done a good job, not only collecting a large amount of firewood, but also picking many unknown wild fruits.
In addition, several jackals have been roasted, just waiting for their return.
Passing through the ape-men, they came to a corner of the cave, where lying were the bamboo spears refined by the apes, although there were not many, but there were hundreds, and it seemed that these apes were not lazy at all.
Picking up a bamboo spear, Chen Xu looked at it carefully, bent it hard, and found that although the bamboo spear was rough in production, it was also hard enough to be used.
Putting down the map on his body and hiding it, Chen Xu let out a shout and ordered the ape-man in the cave to move some prey out and take some burned firewood as a fire.
Although this cave is not small, it can only be inhabited by thirty apes at most, if the number is large, it means that the space is sufficient, and the sanitary conditions cannot meet Chen Xu's requirements.
Even in this Stone Age, he didn't want to live in a pit every day.
In fact, with the addition of more than thirty apemen of this new tribe, counting the ten warriors of the new tribe, the number of his tribe has now reached sixty, and this cave is far from enough for them to survive, and it is urgent to open up a new living space.
Moreover, although there is a lot of strength in the number of people, but there are more people, the consumption of food will naturally increase, although the amount of prey that Chen Xu and the other apes went out to hunt a few days ago is very sufficient, but that is only for the original number of more than a dozen apes.
With the current number of sixty people in the tribe, counting the three or four porcupines killed today, the food left in the tribe is not enough to last for two days, so a new hunting plan is imminent.
After the ape-man in the cave took out the food and torches from the cave and climbed to the top of the mountain, Chen Xu picked up the firewood next to him, and the knowledge of his previous life annihilated the flames in the cave, maintaining a dark burning posture, so that the open flame was extinguished, and the dark fire was lurking for later use.
The geographical location of this cave is unique, Chen Xu does not intend to give up, in fact, he has long had the intention of building the cave into a tribal holy land.
After dealing with the problem of the bonfire, he walked to the edge of the cave in a few steps, looking at the forest below the hill under the hazy night, Chen Xu's eyes flashed, and he whispered to himself, "The jungle below the hill is a very suitable location. ”
"This jungle is very close to the river, and it is easy to get water, if it can be developed into tribal territory, then it can start large-scale fishing, so that the problem of food can be solved for the time being!"
"It's just that judging from the attitude of the No. 1 ape and the captain of the ape-man, there should be a powerful race living in this jungle, occupying this territory, so that beasts and humans dare not approach at all, it seems that this matter needs to be planned!"
After thinking for a moment, Chen Xu looked at the jungle in the east and the jade belt river in the area on the edge of the jungle, the light in his eyes flowed, obviously tempting!
Reaching out and grabbing the rope hanging from the entrance of the cave, Chen Xu thought about it, then carried a jackal dog from the cave, and then quickly ran up the cliff.
At the top of the mountain, according to his orders, the bonfire had been raised, and the fresh prey had been set up on the bonfire, and the rich aroma was overflowing, constantly attacking the taste buds of the ape-men.
Especially the thirty or so ape-men who had recently joined, and after being hungry for a few days, they almost turned red as they watched the oil splashes on the campfire.
If they hadn't been instructed by the ape-man captain a long time ago, maybe they would have stepped forward to scramble this time, but in this nascent tribe, without the permission of Chen Xu, the god of fire, no one would dare to act rashly.
As soon as Chen Xu appeared, the eyes of all the apes looked at him, with a hint of longing in awe, it seemed that he was really hungry!
Seeing this, Chen Xu smiled slightly, threw the jackal boss on his shoulder to the No. 1 ape-man, and after the No. 1 quickly took it to roast, Fang Mance took out the wild fruits collected by the apes in an orderly manner and distributed them to everyone.
However, this distribution method is that there are many strong and weak, Chen Xu himself occupies one-tenth, and the rest, the strong warriors in the hunting team are divided more, and those female apes are also distributed, and some of the old, weak, sick and disabled are very rare.
No one in the apes had any objection to this distribution method, and unconsciously, with the fire god Chen Xu as the leader, a subordinate and subordinate was born in this tribe.
After a while, the beast was roasted, and it was still Chen Xu who carried out the distribution, but considering that it was the official establishment of the new tribe today, Chen Xu, who still could not wake up from the civilized life of the previous life, had a sense of celebration in his heart, and he distributed the food very generously and relatively fairly.
This allows the sixty ape-men in the tribe to not be able to feed themselves, but they can guarantee that every one of them will not go hungry!
For a while, the newly joined ape-man cheered, and their attachment to the new leader was even stronger, as if they saw a better life in the future.
The apes on the top of the mountain were happy that night, and on this steep mountain wall, few wild animals could climb it, and with the huge bonfires lit around them, they were very safe.
After eating the barbecue and burning a few fried eggs on a stone slab, Chen Xu sat on a boulder on the top of the mountain and began to cultivate quietly.
While the other strong apes were busy looking for mates and enjoying their own fun, Chen Xu was quietly working on his inner breath, hoping to go further, although he seemed to be very powerful at the moment, but he knew in his heart that he was just at the bottom in this Stone Age.
Not to mention the mysterious overlord saber-toothed tiger, just a group of jackals at random, if he is really hungry and red-eyed, he will not take any advantage, maybe he will be seriously injured!
And here, what it means to be seriously injured, Chen Xu knows very well!
Not only that, but having absorbed two gold crystals, he had already confirmed the existence of aliens, and if he didn't have enough self-preservation before the aliens arrived, perhaps he would be even more miserable than the other apes.
At least, the other apes did not have his abundant wisdom, so they had a lot less choice, but he was different, as the saying goes, the ignorant are fearless, the more they know, the more they fear.
What's more, there were no medical conditions in the Stone Age, illness means death, and injury also means death, Chen Xu doesn't want to die before he can leave the school, so he has to go back in time, at least he has to see what the aliens look like, and kill at least one before he can be willing.
Therefore, this can bring him great strength and anti-surname internal breath, it has become his first choice, although with his current realm of the late stage of the double heaven, his own penance alone is very slow progress, but this does not become a reason for his laziness, in this Stone Age, this is the capital of his life.
Chen Xu's actions made the boundary between him and the apes more clear, and unconsciously, the name of the fire god had been deeply imprinted in the hearts of the apes.
