Chapter 1 Eagle Tribe?
Zhang Duo was lying on the thatch, thinking about his situation in recent days.
As for the reason for thinking about the situation, yes, he crossed over some time ago.
He is not from this society, he is an aspiring young man who originally lived in the 21st century, and went deep into a cave on the way to an outdoor adventure.
The age in which this body is located is somewhat similar to the ancient times in memory.
In my memory, the name of this tribe is the Eagle Tribe, and the appearance of the people of the Eagle Tribe is similar to the appearance of primitive people in the impression, most of them are dressed in grass skirts, and a small number of strong warriors will wear animal skins, but obviously they will not handle animal skins scientifically, resulting in many places that seem to have cracked or deformed.
The Eagle tribe's way of obtaining food was mainly hunting, and strangely enough, in Zhang Duo's opinion, consuming only a single meat diet would inevitably cause malnutrition, which would lead to more and more weakness.
But these people from the Eagle Tribe are just the opposite, and their physical fitness is far beyond Zhang Duo's imagination.
For example, when these primitive people were bitten by poisonous snakes, it only took two or three hours for their swelling to subside, which simply subverted Zhang Duo's cognition, because in modern times, snakes that encounter neurotoxins and complex mixed toxins are basically difficult to treat.
Looking down at this body, it is about 8 years old, but it is already about the same height as a 14-year-old youth in the 21st century, but it is estimated that it is the reason for not having enough to eat for a long time, and it is relatively thin.
But despite this, his height is already close to 170cm, and his development rate is significantly faster than that of modern people.
Zhang Duo guessed that this was related to genes, after all, if the development was not fast, the chances of surviving in this ancient era would be greatly reduced.
In the Eagle Tribe, children who reach the age of ten will have a coming-of-age ceremony and begin to learn to hunt with the hunting team, and children under the age of ten will not be idle, and most of them will do some simple work, such as chopping wood, collecting stones, collecting some plants, and so on.
Thanks to this rule, the original body did not die early before reaching the age of ten.
From a modern perspective, child labor is unreasonable, but in tribes, unearned is the most unreasonable.
In this era, food was only available to those who were useful to the tribe.
The population of the Eagle tribe is about 300 people, and most of them are children and adult females, while the number of adult male hunters in charge of hunting is relatively small.
In the memory of the original body, the tribesmen have a fanatical belief in the eagle, and the totem of the eagle tribe is also an eagle with wings spread high.
The people of the tribe believed that the eagle god would give their people sensitivity, vigilance, and strength.
The patriarch of the Eagle Tribe is an experienced old hunter named Rui.
It is rumored that as a young man he was able to fight a black bear on his own.
Regarding this rumor, Zhang Duo was skeptical. Despite coming to this place that was different from the primitive times he remembered, he still felt that human power could not be compared to the beasts.
In the Eagle Tribe, the power position of the patriarch is equal to or even vaguely surpassed by the witch, who has no name.
Since taking over this responsibility, Wu has no longer used his original name, and everyone has called him Wu out of respect for him.
The witch in the original memory has precious knowledge, and can use the power of the eagle god to heal the injured, and even communicate with the eagle god to divinate good fortune and evil.
Below the patriarchs and witches were the hunters of the hunting party, whose duty was to protect the tribe and provide food.
The hunting team of the Eagle Tribe has two teams with a total of fifty people, and the captains are Pan and Cang.
Pan is deeply impressed in the memory of the original body, he is the son of the current patriarch Rui, and his burly figure is amazing.
After the death of the original father due to hunting, Pan often came back to take care of the original body.
There were other people in the tribe who were responsible for different tasks, such as stone carvers, who specialized in polishing stone tools; drill carpenter, who specializes in making wooden spears; and people who quit the hunting team because they were injured and engaged in gathering, etc.
As he was sorting through his memories, Duo heard the cheers of his tribesmen.
Zhang Duo heard the prestige.
Tribesmen, women, and children gathered in the center of the camp to watch the returning caravan.
As the shouts of the clansmen sounded, a mixture of footsteps and animal cries could be heard in the distance, which aroused people's excitement and attention.
Slowly, a hunting party slowly appeared in sight. They wore hunting clothing made of animal skins and carried spears, bows and arrows and other hunting tools, and carried their booty on their shoulders.
The leader of the team is Pan, who is now directing the hunters to display their prey on the ground with a smile on his face. The bloodied prey was most eye-catching with two sturdy wild boars.
Zhang Duo saw the two wild boars and muttered in his heart, "It's really successful." ”
When the prey was put on display, there was a burst of exclamation.
You must know that encountering wild boars in the wild is very dangerous, no less dangerous than encountering large predators, not to mention that these two wild boars are really too big.
They applauded the courage and skill of the hunters.
The young hunters in the team were adored by children who had not yet undergone a rite of passage.
They looked at these young warriors with admiration and envy, hoping that one day they too would become true hunters like them.
After Patriarch Rui saw today's harvest, a smile also appeared on his usually steady face.
He asked, "Pan, today's harvest is good!" These two wild boars are big guys. It must be dangerous to encounter them in the wild, and are there any injured hunters in the hunting party? ”
Pan also replied with a smile: "Patriarch Hui, no one was injured. We dug a trap, and one of the two big guys fell into the trap, and the other was presumably its companion, and it refused to leave the trap, and was eventually besieged and killed by us. ”
Although Pan is Rui's son, he does not call his father in front of outsiders, but is addressed as "patriarch", which is what Rui requires.
After listening to Pan's answer, Rui couldn't help but ask, "What kind of trap can catch such a big wild boar?" These two look too big, and they are probably both at the king level of the group. ”
Pan scratched his head, waved his hand to Duo over, then patted him on the shoulder and said to Rui:
"It was Duo who came up with it. Duo's father didn't come back after hunting last year, and I saw that the boy was alone, so I visited him from time to time and told him stories about hunting. This kid didn't pay much attention to me before, but last time I told him that on the hunting route, there were wild boars around a few trees, and it was probably the hair of the bear boar rubbing against the trees. And guess what this kid said? ”
Rui's face was expressionless, and he waited quietly for Pan to continue. Pan didn't dare to delay any longer, and replied directly:
"This kid told me that he wanted to go out with the hunting party and see if he could dig a trap to catch the wild boar. He was so young, of course I didn't dare let him go out with the team. But the kid was persistent, so I made a bet with him to try a trap in his way. If it succeeds, I ask you to allow him to join the hunting party; If he fails, the priest waits until after the bar mig. ”
Rui looked at Duo, and it was clear that the trap had succeeded. However, Rui did not directly express his opinion on whether or not to allow Duo to enter the hunting party, but continued to ask Pan, "Can you tell me in detail how the trap is arranged?" ”
Pan honestly explained the whole process. At Duo's request, he dug a pit nearly two people high around the tree where the boar's hair was found.
The bottom of the pit is covered with spiked bamboo, and a layer of dead branches protrudes from the top of the pit to support it, and a layer of dead leaves covers the top. Finally, the fruit given by the priest was placed on top.
After setting the trap, he continued along the route of the hunt with his team.
On the way back, he found that the trap had been triggered, and there was a wild boar guarding nearby.
So, he led the hunters to besiege the wild boar. Since the boar did not run away, but was worried about another boar that had fallen into the trap, and guarded tightly around the trap and did not want to leave, no one was injured and finally succeeded in taking it.
Rui looked at Duo.
"Duo, do you really want to get into the hunting party early? You know, hunting is dangerous for adult warriors. You are not yet old enough for a bar mitzvah, and it is very dangerous for you to join the team. ”
During the period of time after Zhang Duo came to this world, he actually thought about how to develop himself.
He felt that since he could no longer go back to the world, he couldn't come in vain.
The people of the tribe are very kind to him these days, and he wants to see if he can make the Eagle tribe prosperous.
At the same time, the original body's feelings for the tribe also unconsciously affected him.
Another very important point is that he really thinks that the food of the Eagle Tribe is too poor, and if he doesn't do something, he can't accept this kind of food all the time.
Therefore, Zhang Duo replied, "Patriarch, I hope to enter the hunting team. I would like your consent. ”
