Chapter 8 Pitfalls
Placing the child and the woman in the tiger's den, Zhang Shiping and the three men found a random place to spend the night outside.
Although the climate at this time is still relatively mild, after all, the night is too cool, and these people can no longer withstand the devastation of the slightest disease.
Since these people were left behind, Zhang Shiping was unwilling to let them die with him.
At dawn the next day, the eagle had re-tied the stone spear, and the other two were silently crouching there with their spears in their arms.
The fireman directed the woman and the child to look for food around the tiger's den, mainly the kudzu that Zhang Shiping told them yesterday.
After a night's rest in the Dragon's Lair, plus yesterday's good food. A slight hint of blood appeared on the faces of several children, but that was all. If they want to recover completely, they will need a period of recuperation.
Zhang Shiping was not in a hurry to lead the three of them to fight with the group of wild boars, that was not the key to him. If he wants, he can easily solve it in less than an hour with just one person.
But the blood is unknown. These beings who occupy the dragon's lair are, to a certain extent, the darlings of this heaven and earth.
Reckless killing may be the quickest way to perfect authority, but it will bury hidden dangers.
Originally, Zhang Shiping was ready to slowly help the tribe become stronger. Then, in order to regain their former territory, they will naturally expel or kill the herd of wild boars.
Help them have better weapons, fire pottery for them. All because of this idea.
But the current tribe simply has no way to accomplish this task. Extremely weak, they can't even survive on their own.
The situation forced Zhang Shiping to leave the game in person.
But help the tribe grow and let them be the pathfinders of their own Shinto. Zhang Shiping has not changed this plan.
So, for him. Stabilizing the lives of these women and children is much more important than helping them regain their territory.
In the mountains and forests, he found some medicinal herbs for them to nourish their vitality, which Zhang Shiping himself tasted and identified the medicinal properties.
Fortunately, Zhang Shiping has cultivated since he was a child, and his medical skills are only rude, but this kind of medicinal diet that nourishes himself is often taken, and he is very familiar with it. It was easy to find the herbs I needed in the mountains and forests.
He called the fireman and told him to wash the herbs and boil them in a clay pot, and told him what to do. Let him boil it and give it to the women and children.
The fireman seemed very shrewd this time, he memorized the herbs one by one, and asked the two children to memorize them with him.
Zhang Shiping smiled when he saw this, and didn't care about him. Instead, the growth habits and treatment details of the herb are explained in more detail.
Zhang Shiping didn't plan to collect medicine for them every day, and it was the right thing to hand it over to them.
took the three of them to the place where the wild boars usually move, Zhang Shiping did not kill the remaining five wild boars one by one with weapons as the three of them thought.
He threw each of them a stone shovel and told them to dig holes in the ground.
Zhang Shiping was going to use a trap, these five wild boars were not small, if they were killed directly, it would be too wasteful.
After all, five wild boars, even if one person lets go of his stomach, he can't eat it all for a while. The rest can only rot like the white tiger that Zhang Shiping killed for the first time.
At the moment, these women and children urgently need enough food to replenish their food, and Yin Shan Sanyin has few large prey, so it is not easy to get enough food.
Moreover, he was not willing to kill directly.
The three of them didn't seem to have the habit of digging pits, but as soon as Zhang Shiping explained to them, they dug hard with bright eyes.
Judging by their appearance, they will definitely carry forward this technique of digging pits in practice in the future, and trap other animals. But that's not what Zhang Shiping cares about.
With the concerted efforts of the three of them, it took half a day to finally dig a square pit two meters wide and two meters deep.
Zhang Shiping asked them to cover the pit with branches, and then sprinkled some soil on it, while preparing to wait for the rabbit.
But at this time, the eagle's eyes turned and ran into the mountains and forests.
Zhang Shiping was a little puzzled by this, but after a while, the eagle appeared again with a bunch of berries.
patted his head, Zhang Shiping suddenly realized. I forgot the bait.
The eagle, as it did yesterday, broke the berries, placed them in the center of the trap, and hid aside.
The wild boar seemed to be very sensitive to this scent, but in half an hour, two wild boars came together, humming and arching their noses, and followed the fragrance to the trap.
The two wild boars had obviously never seen such a trap, and they took a very stupid and bold step forward.
Then, with a click, the branches snapped, and the two boars fell into the trap prepared for them without resistance.
The two wild boars, who were suddenly shocked, immediately hissed loudly, and the piercing sound resounded again in the mountains and forests.
At this time, Zhang Shiping had already led the three of them to start digging pits again in another direction. The three people who vaguely heard the neighing of wild boars couldn't hold back the excitement in their hearts and prepared to go over and have a look.
Zhang Shiping stopped their thoughts and asked them to dig the pit under their hands first.
After digging the pit, Zhang Shiping took the three of them to the first pit.
It had been about four hours since the two wild boars had fallen into the trap, and they had been roaring for a long time and were no longer able to make their piercing hisses, only occasionally making some humming sounds.
Zhang Shiping looked at it and couldn't help but smile on his face.
What was originally two wild boars has now become three. If you look at the surrounding traces, there are messy boar hoof prints.
It's barely a door-to-door delivery.
The three people behind Zhang Shiping also looked silly and smiled.
Zhang Shiping turned the small snake wrapped around his left hand into a long whip, knocked the wild boar on the far left unconscious, and then tied it up and dragged it up.
The three people who followed behind followed yesterday's routine, tied their hooves, locked their mouths, and carried them away.
The easy hunt made all three of them happy, especially the companion of Eagle and Yu, the only three young men left in the tribe, who was now the only one without a title. He felt that his title might fall on this new method of hunting.
Back in the tribe, looking at the wild boar without wounds, the fireman was surprised.
Eagle painted and told the fireworker about today's experience, and the fireworker was dumbfounded.
In the tribe, hunting is a very dangerous thing. Historically, only a strong man could do it. In this way, wouldn't it be possible for both women and children to hunt in the mountains and forests?
Zhang Shiping was not in the mood to care about the pyrotechnics.
According to one wild boar a day, the tribesmen would stay with him for at least five days. He didn't want to huddle with everyone, nor did he want to blow the cold wind outside at night.
It just so happened that he had thought of building a wooden house, but he gave up because it was too time-consuming.
Now there are exactly three free laborers, and this plan is being implemented.
The women have already begun to prepare the food. Zhang Shiping called out to the three men who had just killed and skinned the wild boar and asked them to help him build a wooden house.
Zhang Shiping stood in the woods facing east, turned the small snake into a long whip again, and then whipped it on the trunk of the tree.
With a snap, the tree fell to the ground, more convenient than a 21st century chainsaw.
Zhang Shiping asked each of the three to use a stone axe to process the branches and leaves, and the two of them moved the treated branches to the open space on the side.
Zhang Shiping plans to build a simple grass house, but he will not be too complicated.
After cutting down eight pieces of wood to make the main trunk, Zhang Shiping stopped. He asked the three of them to dig a half-meter-deep circular pit at the designated location.
This made them very interested, probably because of the sequelae of digging traps.
And he set up four pillars, two on the east side and forty centimeters higher than the west one. Then Zhang Shiping built the other four pillars into the top of the house, and the joints were directly grown together by Zhang Shiping with divine power. Then use thin rods to make triangles to fix the main column. The top is divided into small pieces with thin rods.
And so the rough framework is complete.
As long as they wait until tomorrow, take the three of them to find some thatched grass and spread on it, and this grass hut will be completed.
Everyone else was very strange about Zhang Shiping suddenly building a strange thing, but none of them came to ask Zhang Shiping why. Perhaps, in their opinion, what Zhang Shiping has done, they can't understand is a normal situation.
After a dinner, night falls again.
The people of the tribe are asleep, but Zhang Shiping still has a job.
During the day, the fireman took the women back to their station in the col and brought some things with them. Among them is the stone tablet given to them by Zhang Shiping.
When he saw the stone tablet again, Zhang Shiping was obviously stunned.
The ghostly aura came out of the stone plaque. In just a few days, this originally ordinary stone tablet has become a good magic weapon.
Zhang Shiping asked for the stone tablet from the pyrotechnic and found out after careful inspection. It turned out that the giant tiger spirit inside the stone plaque had devoured too many yin spirits in the past two nights, causing indigestion and breath leaking. Infect the stone tablet into a magic artifact.
Now Zhang Shiping was surprised, how many yin spirits were devoured by the giant tiger, and even the breath leaking out could dye an ordinary stone tablet into a magic weapon. If it were these nights, Zhang Shiping would also gather the Yin Spirit everywhere. But if you do the math, even if you give it all to the giant tiger, you won't be able to achieve this effect.
Zhang Shiping asked the pyrotechnics where their station was, and planned to go to investigate tonight.
When Zhang Shiping came to the station of the old man's tribe, he looked around. Rather speechless, he looked up to the sky and sighed.
What kind of strange eyes did this fireworker have to choose this place?
This is the outlet of Yin Shan's yin evil qi, countless yin spirits have been attracted here, accumulating over the years, and only the last step is about to give birth to a primordial underworld.
When people live on this, they are basically hanged by the old birthday star - they are afraid of a long life.
However, Zhang Shiping can't let it grow. Over the years, the fireworker tribe has lived here, and the yin and yang have been consumed, making it stuck in the last step here, unable to give birth to the underworld.
If you just ignore it, maybe there will be a fierce god and evil ghost here that day, slaughtering living beings everywhere. This is unacceptable to Zhang Shiping, who targets the mountain god.
