Original War

Chapter 39

Shao Xuan put the knife given by Old Ke on the newly made stone table in the house, and Caesar stared at the knife and fangs two meters away. Since it sniffed the sniffer knife at close range just now, it has become cautious, its eyes are full of precautions, keeping a certain distance from the blade, just not close.

Shao Xuan reached out and touched the blade, which was not as cold as a stone. For decades, the strong murderous intent on the blade had settled down. After repeated polishing, the blade was also slightly smaller due to wear and tear. It was originally covered with small pieces. The notched blade has been polished again to become smooth and sharp.

With a light sigh, Shao Xuan carefully put the knife on the holster. Old Ke gave himself his precious knife, and he was not afraid of losing it.

Putting the knife aside, Shao Xuan brought a stone slab. The stone material of the slate was only inferior. Shao Xuan moved it back to use it as a writing board. The number of stone tools planned to be built is listed one by one and written on the slate.

In addition to the spearhead and the stone arrowhead, Shao Xuan also plans to make a few stone balls to take, and then the flying stone rope or the beast rope can be used.

For three days in a row, Shao Xuan polished the stone tools with Lao Ke and listened to Lao Ke telling him about hunting.

Old Ke didn't mention his glorious deeds back then, and Shao Xuan didn't ask further, he would naturally tell him when he wanted to.

After polishing the stone tools, Lao Ke asked Shao Xuan: "Do you know why people who live up the mountainside rarely go fishing?"

Shao Xuan has always wondered about this question. Since everyone found fish in the river, why are many people willing to go out and risk their lives to hunt.

It stands to reason that pulling a fish is so simple, as long as you master the skills, you don't have to work hard at all. Moreover, as far as Shao Xuan knows, not everyone who lives on the mountainside has enough food.

But in fact, Shao Xuan also saw a few elderly people with limited mobility go down the mountain to join the fishing ranks, did not see the children on the mountain participating, not to mention the soldiers, except for the defense on the river bank, almost nothing. Who went to grab fish with people near the foot of the mountain.

Old Ke raised his head and looked out the window. You can see the mountains in the distance from that direction.

"Because of the ancestral training." Old Ke said, "Nine hundred years ago, the leader and the witch left a warning at the same time. As long as they are healthy fighters, they must go out to participate in the hunt. You must do everything possible to Ascension yourself!"

Ascension of totem warriors is not easy. When going out hunting, you can go through a life-and-death struggle to go from the primary totem warrior Ascension to the intermediate warrior level. When I went hunting this time, almost all of them were mentally prepared to stay in the wilderness.

The whole mountain, the people who live near the foot of the mountain, have the worst overall strength, which also shows that the mentality of these people is relatively lazy. But even so, Shao Xuan didn't see anyone with a face full of reluctance every time he hunted. Everyone was very positive, even if they were able to catch enough fish now.

Many warriors on the mountain do not let their children go down the mountain to fish, and probably do not want their children to develop the idea of ​​"getting food is actually very simple". From the brainwashing teachings passed down from generation to generation, they only need to know that if they want food, they must get involved in dangerous places and fight against the beasts in the mountains and forests to get it.

There is pressure to have Ascension's motivation.

"A soldier who has not passed the hunting test is not a real soldier!" Old Ke concluded.

It sounds cruel, but understandable. Thousands of years of persistence cannot be changed by a single fishing incident. They believe that fishing is prone to slack, so they will stick to it. Not to mention, the leaders and witches of the long time ago formulated a development route, and there was nothing fish in it, and the focus was on the mountains and forests in the distance.

Shao Xuan remembered the mural he once saw on the wall of the stone chamber in the cave, and the last sentence: "One day, we will return to our place. The glory is still there, and the flames of the horns will never die."

Coming out of Ke and returning to the own wooden house, Shao Xuan lightly lit the stone tools polished today, categorized them, and put them together with the stone tools polished a few days ago.

Shao Xuan's polished stone is different from Lang Ga's, the body is more streamlined, the wings are striped, and the back is slightly straight. In addition, some three-wing stone arrows were polished. Unlike the stone tools used for training, the stone tools that are going to be taken for hunting are all carved with Shao Xuan's name. This is what every hunting warrior in the tribe will do.

After finishing the stone tools, Shao Xuan turned around and saw Caesar squatting next to him and yawning with his head hanging down, his ears drooping unconsciously, and a soft look. At first glance, he looked like a lazy dog ​​in front of his house. Now Lang Ga and the others look at Caesar no longer look at the prey, they just ignore it. Caesar is so unchallenging and wolfish, so they are not interested.

However, when the time comes to go out hunting with the team, what will Caesar do in about twenty days?

It is impossible to stay at home, and no one looks at Shao Xuan and feels relieved.

Send it up the mountain to let Wu help? No, no one cares about the old god stick when he gets busy.

Shao Xuan even thought about whether to send Caesar to the cave, but finally dispelled this idea. If this is put in the hole, Caesar will be completely mad, and the children can't control it at all.

After thinking about several candidates, Shao Xuan decided to let Old Ke help to watch when the time comes, and, with Old Ke, Caesar also settled down.

After having polished stone tools with Lao Ke for so long, Caesar was also familiar with it. Besides, Shao Xuan also believed that Lao Ke could take good care of Caesar.

So, on the third day when the hunting team came back, those who stayed behind were also ready to set off.

Shao Xuan took Laoke’s knife and the stone tools he built, detoured through Laoke’s house, leaving Caesar on Laoke’s side, leaving behind a lot of fish and meat. Not small.

"Stay here to watch the door obediently, and I will pick you up when I come back."

When walking up the mountain with his equipment on his back, Shao Xuan could still hear Caesar's humming sound, sounding pitiful... more and more like a dog.

According to the previous agreement with Lang Ga, Shao Xuan first went to find Lang Ga after reaching the mountainside, and then Lang Ga took him up the mountain. Before the hunting team set off, there must be a mobilization meeting. Shao Xuan didn’t know many procedures. Someone had to bring the talent. OK, otherwise it's easy to make mistakes.

When Shao Xuan arrived, Lang Ga was already waiting at the door. Several large animal skin bags and net bags were filled with tools.

"Let's go." Lang Ga walked forward with his equipment on his back.

When walking up the mountain with Lang Ga, many people saw Shao Xuan and were surprised. They didn't expect Shao Xuan to go hunting with him this time.

"A Fei won't participate?" Shao Xuan asked Lang Ga.

Shao Xuan saw Fei's figure just now, but the other party didn't bring equipment and didn't mean to go up the mountain. Seeing Shao Xuan's eyes were still angry.

"He," Lang Ga lowered his voice, "During the last hunt, the kid was disobedient and made a mess. This time Mai and the others didn't let Fei follow. Don't think about it. So A Xuan, you must follow the arrangements when hunting with the team."

"I know." Shao Xuan said.

On the way, I met Ang and others who had a good relationship with Lang Ga, and they all went up the mountain together.

The mobilization meeting was still at the place where the sacrifice was held last time, but this time it did not ignite the entire firepit.

Wu was wearing a gray cloak, standing by the firepit with a cane, and was talking with the leader Ao. When Shao Xuan looked there, Wu also glanced here, and was stunned after seeing Shao Xuan. Obviously, he remembered Shao Xuan this time, and he didn't expect that Shao Xuan would participate in this hunting operation.
