Chapter Thirty-Six: Your Tribe

The sun rises and the moon sets.

Dozens of more rotations have passed.

In the valley, near the creek, the surrounding jungle trees had been pushed out of a clearing, replaced by mud and simple mud huts.

After deciding to stay, Ma led his people and began to build new tribes here.

It was only soon that they discovered that this was not the place where they had lived, with high mountain walls and no natural caves to be found.

In addition, with their current abilities, it is impossible to carve out a cave in the hard mountain wall for them to survive with the stones and sticks in their hands.

This discovery made their hearts that had been happy to find a new tribe suddenly sink again, if it weren't for the fact that they had already pinned all their hopes on Ma and believed in Ma's choice, they would have begun to panic at this time.

Seeing this, Ma's face did not show the slightest uneasiness, this valley, except for the tiger-shaped beast that had been subdued by Fengxi, there were no other beasts.

The surrounding cliffs are their best protection, and the wide valley is more suitable for the survival of the tribesmen than the narrow caves, as long as the "gap" in and out is blocked, they no longer have to worry about being attacked by wild beasts.

After leaving the people in place, he went into the jungle alone, and after searching the valley carefully, he soon saw him appear in front of them with a bundle of leaves a man high.

He had his people light a bonfire in the open space of the creek, and when night came, they covered themselves with leaves.

The clansmen did not show any rejection of Ma's proposal, and along the way, they had long been accustomed to sleeping on the floor.

The first few nights did go smoothly for them.

However, one night, a heavy rain suddenly came, and the bonfire was extinguished by the rain, and the water from the ground poured into the stream, flooding the place where they slept.

Immediately let them understand that they can't just live on the ground.

Seeing this, he asked the tribesmen to climb the big tree in the forest, and lay down on the tree to sleep like Fengxi.

However, they had never slept on a tree, and on the first night, the sound of falling to the ground continued to sound in the forest, and when Ma jumped down from the tree, he saw only the clansmen lying on the ground and wailing in pain.

Failure after failure made Ma wonder if he was really right to stubbornly choose to stay in this valley.

With this mood, after pacifying the clansmen, Ma quietly left and found Fengxi.

Looking at the dejected face, Feng Xi didn't say anything, he just took out a piece of animal skin and handed it to him.

When Ma took the animal skin and spread it out, the depression on his face immediately disappeared, and he hugged the animal skin tightly in his arms as if he were a treasure, and ran to the tribesmen with a happy face.

He led the people to follow the patterns on the skins, knocking down the surrounding trees, digging up the soil on the ground, and building mud houses on the ground.

The name of the house was told to him by Fengxi!

When the earthen houses were built one by one, Ma reluctantly returned the animal skins to Fengxi, but was rejected by the other party, saying that the animal skins were given to him, and told him that the place where they were built with mud and let them live is called a house.

After solving the top priority of the tribesmen's residence, Ma led some of the tribesmen out of the valley with torches and began to hunt wild beasts outside.

When he and his people hunted, they never tried to hunt the large beasts, but instead searched the jungle for those smaller beasts that could only eat leaves and grass.

Whenever the torches were about to be extinguished, whether there was a harvest or not, Ma would return to the valley with his people.

He knew very well in his heart that the jungle was very dangerous, and without the protection of flames, the beasts that lived in it would kill him and his people.

In this way, Ma took the tribe and started a new life for the tribe.

There is no need to worry about the attack of wild beasts, and the dirt that was originally covered on the body is cleaned by them. The leaves around the waist were also replaced one by one, and the fur from the hunted beasts was made into animal skin clothes in the same way as Fengxi.

On the other side, Fengxi, who had been staying in the jungle and quietly observing, watched the originally very primitive tribe in front of him develop step by step, and gradually appeared traces of civilization, but he knew in his heart that it was time to leave.

……

On this day, when the hunters returned with a beast with fangs on its mouth.

Fengxi walked out of the forest and came to the cheering crowd.

"My lord, I did it!"

Seeing Feng Xi appear here, a hint of surprise flashed on his face, he hurriedly ran to Feng Xi, pointed to the beast on the ground, and said excitedly,

"Beast, beast!"

Ma was not willing to just hunt those little beasts in the jungle, he once told Fengxi that one day, he would hunt a fierce beast, so that the beast that could only be used as food in front of them would become his own food!

And today, he finally led his people to do just that.

"Yes, you did!"

Feng Xi smiled and nodded, and he glanced at the group of people around him who had begun to become cautious because of his arrival.

Their dirty, muddy bodies were cleaned, and animal skins replaced their once rudimentary straw skirts.

When they looked at themselves, although their faces were still in awe, there was more hope in their eyes.

Fengxi moved away from them, and looked at the mud houses built around them.

In front of each earthen house, a bonfire made of wood burns quietly.

Human civilization is beginning to burn here with a bonfire.

"Oh, I'm leaving!" Feng Xi returned his gaze to Ma, and after a moment of silence, he only heard him speak.

Ma Wenyan's originally joyful face suddenly froze, and then, his face became panicked.

"Adult ......"

"Whew!" Feng Xi interrupted him with a wave of his hand, and he stared into Ma's eyes,

"You're doing a great job, the tribe has now taken root here, and I have nothing more to teach you!"

"My lord, can you stay?"

For the first time, Ma didn't avoid Fengxi's deep gaze that seemed to be able to see him through thoroughly, he threw himself on his knees and looked up at Fengxi, his face full of pleading.

As he fell to his knees, the surrounding clansmen fell to their knees, bowing their heads and slamming on the ground, begging Fengxi not to leave, just like their leader.

Since coming to this valley, under Feng Xi's deliberate avoidance, although he has not seen each other a few times, everything in front of him has been completed by Ma.

But everyone has not forgotten that the reason why they can come here and live here is because of the person in front of them.

It was he who changed their lives.

He brought the fire, and he taught the house to Ma.

"Oh, don't forget, you're a witch!"

Feng Xi smiled and walked up to Ma and helped him up,

"Wu, how can you pin your hopes on other people?"

He pointed to the mud houses around him, to the bonfires, to the tribesmen,

"Here, it's your tribe!"
