Chapter 278: Ancient Tribes
This is an ancient vegetation, lush deep mountain old forest, surrounded by countless ancient trees like a dragon, from time to time in the forest there are apes and monkeys howling, insects and birds chirping, a breath of nature wafting in the old forest.
However, under an incomparably huge tree, a figure lay there, the robe around the figure was torn, the exposed skin looked a little scorched, the conspicuous white hair was scattered around, and the face revealed a trace of pain.
At this moment, the footsteps of Si Xisuo sounded in the old forest!
A boy about twelve or thirteen years old, carrying a stone spear on his back, came to the tree where Fang Tianchen was lying in a few flashes.
The boy's eyes were bright, and he looked at Fang Tianchen who was lying there with a puzzled expression, and only after half a sound did he shout.
"Uncle Da...... Come here, there's a man lying here, and he seems to be breathing......"
After the boy shouted, dozens of figures galloped from all sides very neatly, and the leader had a long scar on his face, from his forehead to the corners of his mouth, fortunately he avoided important places such as eyes, and looked a little fierce.
The leader carried a stone crossbow and a stone spear, and raised his right hand to signal the rest of the people not to make a sound!
The man known as Uncle Da squatted down and carefully examined Fang Tianchen, and was relieved when he saw the stone sword behind Fang Tianchen.
Uncle Da looked around, and then said in a low voice: "Today's prey is enough for the tribe to eat for three months, bring this person back to the tribe, this person has a big fate, it should be from other tribes." I'm afraid this injury was injured by a lightning strike, I'm afraid it won't get better in ten days and half a month......" Uncle Da seems to be the leader of this group.
"Magu, you found this person. It's up to you to carry it back!" Uncle Da smiled at the boy.
"Okay, Uncle Da!" The boy looked very simple, and then carried Fang Tianchen on his back.
"It's so heavy......" The boy was a little surprised.
............................................................................................................
In a stone house made entirely of stones.
Fang Tianchen woke up faintly, opened his eyelids with a little difficulty, looked around, and found himself lying on a stone bed, which was covered with thick furs of unknown beasts.
"Where is this......" Fang Tianchen had a splitting headache. I looked around blankly, all this was so unfamiliar.
Suddenly, a footstep sounded. I saw a simple and honest boy hurriedly lift the curtain made of animal skins, and the boy was Magu.
"Huh...... Uncle, are you awake......" The boy's eyes were hurried with curiosity, and he smiled innocently.
"Uncle......" Fang Tianchen touched himself. A stubbly beard. plus a head of white hair, I can't help but smile wryly.
"Magu ......" At this moment, a female voice came from behind the curtain.
The curtain was opened, and a beautiful woman in a leather dress and skirt was holding a plate in her hand, and in the plate was a piece of beast's leg meat, the woman moved in, and when she saw Fang Tianchen wake up, she was also happy.
"Sister!" Magu shouted obediently.
"Yike...... You're awake. Hungry, eat something......" The woman placed her plate on the table.
Fang Tianchen sniffed his nose. That's the smell of meat! A feeling of hunger came up instantly, and he hurriedly picked up the plate, regardless of the image, he just devoured it, and the two sisters and brothers who saw it couldn't help but shake their heads and smile bitterly!
"Uncle, you really know how to eat, this is the thigh meat of a brute elephant, ordinary people can be full after eating one or two bites!" Ma Gu smiled innocently, but the woman on the side gave him a roll of his eyes.
After Fang Tianchen finished eating, the woman smiled and said, "What's your name? How could you appear in the Wild Ancient Forest? If it weren't for the hunting team of our tribe passing by, I'm afraid you would have become the belly of a beast......
Fang Tianchen wiped his mouth, and then his brows furrowed, and only after half a sound did he sigh lightly: "I only remember that my name is Fang Tianchen......"
"Fang Tianchen, my name is Mana, do you mean that you have amnesia?" asked Mana curiously.
"It should be!" Fang Tianchen stared at Manna with blank eyes in his eyes, and suddenly, Mana's face seemed to have a familiar feeling in his mind.
This scene made Demana's face flush, and she quickly turned her head away.
"It's such a familiar feeling, I have seen ......" Fang Tianchen shook his head, and said secretly in his heart.
"You rest first, Uncle Da said that you were injured by lightning and need to recuperate......" After speaking, Mana hurriedly turned around and left, leaving Magu alone.
"Uncle...... You really don't remember anything?" Magu curious.
Fang Tianchen shook his head slightly, his brows furrowed and loosened.
"Then you have a good rest, I'll go out first......" Magu walked out slightly disappointed, leaving Fang Tianchen alone, staring at the roof in a little confusion.
Three days later.
Fang Tianchen was dressed in animal skins and sat on the roof of the Magu family, which was the tallest stone house in the entire tribe, where he could see the entire tribe at a glance.
In the past three days, Fang Tianchen has also slowly figured out the entire tribe.
The people here call this a wild continent, in addition to the human tribe, there are also beast barbarians, a tribe in the wild ancient forest, the whole tribe is about three hundred people, there are about two hundred adult men and women, one hundred old and weak, and Magu and Mana are the children of the patriarch of this tribe, the people in the tribe are simple, all the tribes are very enthusiastic, and every three months the tribe will send adult men to hunt in the wild ancient forest to provide food for the whole tribe.
In the past three days, Fang Tianchen, the patriarch Maka, also came to visit, and after asking for no results, he also shook his head and left.
"Uncle...... You're sitting here again......" As soon as Magu came back, he saw Fang Tianchen sitting on the roof.
"Hmm!" From the strangeness at the beginning, to the familiarity three days later, Fang Tianchen also smiled and nodded.
I saw that Magu also hurriedly climbed onto the roof and sat next to Fang Tianchen.
"Uncle...... I'm going to go to my father's place later, and it's my thirteenth birthday in seven days, and my father said he could teach me how to grind stone tools......!
Hearing this, Fang Tianchen smiled helplessly.
"Don't worry, I won't say it. ”
In the past three days, Fang Tianchen also found that every day, Mana would carefully grind some stones in the house, and once Fang Tianchen accidentally saw the process of Mana grinding stones, but it made Mana's whole face turn red, and hurriedly drove Fang Tianchen away.
After Magu left, Fang Tianchen sighed slightly and looked into the distance.
There were tribal children playing and playing, and a woman holding her infant baby and sewing animal skins in her hands, as if preparing winter clothes for her men. There are also many old people sitting under the vines, chatting in the courtyard surrounded by bamboo fences, and the whole tribe is full of life......
Late at night, Fang Tianchen sat in the courtyard, looking at the dark night sky, countless stars, the tribe at night was very quiet, it seemed that even Fang Tianchen's heart was calm.
Fang Tianchen closed his eyes, feeling this rare atmosphere.
When, when, when......
Suddenly, Fang Tianchen vaguely heard a rapid knocking sound, the sound was very slight, there was a bit of rhythm in it, Fang Tianchen looked towards the brightly lit stone house, and the corners of his mouth smiled slightly.
"It seems that Manna is grinding stone tools again......"
I saw Fang Tianchen stand up and slowly walked to the foot of an ancient tree in the courtyard, where there were a pile of broken stone utensils, all of which were of all kinds, but without exception they were all broken weapons.
Fang Tianchen gently picked up a piece, which seemed to be a fracture of a sharp spear, and at that moment, Fang Tianchen's eyes lit up slightly, slightly surprised.
"Huh...... It's so smooth...... "Fang Tianchen gently rubbed the surface of this spear fracture, there was no stone feeling at all, the surface had been scratched by something, it looked round and jade, and then Fang Tianchen gently pressed his finger on the sharp head of the fracture.
Fang Tianchen pressed it and hurriedly withdrew his hand, but traces of blood still oozed from his fingertips.
"Shhh...... What a sharp object!"
Fang Tianchen muttered a sentence and then squatted down, carefully studying the broken stone tool fragments under the ancient tree.
"This one is also so smooth......"
"Huh, this is extremely rough......"
Fang Tianchen observed and studied intently, but did not notice that behind him, an old man wearing a colored animal skin robe was standing there.
The old man looked puzzled, and when he saw that Fang Tianchen was studying the fragments of the broken stone weapon, his face showed a strange color, and the old man just watched quietly and did not make a sound.
And Fang Tianchen seemed to be concentrating on his research.
"How much effort does it take to be able to grind such a coarse stone so smooth and shiny, and so sharp......"
In his own words, he saw that Fang Tianchen actually picked up two slightly rough and uneven stones, and then pressed one of them to the ground, and then gently knocked the other one.
Da, da, da......
Suddenly, a faint percussion sound sounded softly, and at this time, Fang Tianchen was completely focused on grinding, and in his mind he actually recalled the sound of Mana percussion that he had heard in the middle of the night in the past few days!
The sound of the stone striking was messy at first, but as time went on, it gradually calmed down and then entered a wonderful rhythm.
And the rough and uneven water chestnut of the stone that was pressed on the ground gradually smoothed out under Fang Tianchen's knock.
This scene fell into the eyes of the old man behind him, making the old man's face change.
"How is this possible, how can this person know the art of grinding!Could it be that Manna gave him ......" The old man's heart turned a thousand waves, and his horror was beyond words.
"No, the art of grinding is a secret that the tribe does not pass on, and only the patriarch's family can learn it for generations, could it be that Mana has already ...... with this person" The old man looked puzzled at first, and then seemed to think that he had figured something out, and his brows furrowed even more.
