Chapter Thirty-Six: Defense Against Baby Eaters

Scenes from the past always flashed before his eyes. Zhou Jiping didn't know whether he was homesick or had the urge to explode. Since fate arranged for him to waste time here, why waste it? Not for the tribe, but

Others just wanted to have something to do so that they would not worry about anything that bothered them. They made up their minds and called Anka and Zubei to start their first job in the tribe.

As for the tribe's soul theory, Zhou Jiping certainly didn't believe it. He had his own judgment. He heard it from people who had hunted in the mountains since childhood: animals are afraid of humans. This is an instinct. This leopard can break through this.

It instinctively attacks humans, probably because it cannot catch enough prey during the dry season, so it has no choice but to watch the leopard escape. It has a strong sense of direction and basically moves in a straight line. Zhou Jiping estimates that the leopard has been wandering outside the tribe for a long time, and it knows that during the day, the livestock pen

The defense there is lax and it is impossible to get in, but it is possible to escape. After being discovered this time, the possibility of the leopard coming in for a sneak attack is much smaller. After all, it feels uncomfortable to be chased by a group of people, but if it still cannot find food

, taking another desperate risk should not happen in the near future.

A group of four people circled the entire tribe and searched along the leopard's escape route. They still didn't get much. Where did the leopard sneak into the tribe? They were still helpless. They needed to know the sisal bushes in the livestock stables and cultivated fields.

Although it is the sparseest, at night, tribal warriors will light bonfires to guard it all night long. During the day, there are no people there, and it is impossible to come in from there. The sisal around the camp has been growing for many years, and even the skin and flesh are strong.

If the thick wild boar is unwilling to come in, how can the leopard get in? Now even Anka and Zube are worried. They can't find out where the leopard slipped into the tribe. How to prevent it?

In fact, Zhou Jiping's biggest gain should be that during the survey, he had already looked around the tribe carefully. This would be very useful no matter when he escaped. In addition, Zhou Jiping just learned that the original tribe

Another source of income is squeezing sisal silk, which is another income for the tribe besides dried meat. It is also the reason why the sisal bushes near the livestock pens are thin. As for how to defend, Zhou Jiping already has an idea in his mind.

When he heard that Zhou Jiping and others had gained nothing, the chief was a little unhappy. At this time, Zhou Jiping calmly expressed his thoughts. In fact, it was very simple, just two words - Lu Yan!

During the survey, Zhou Jiping saw a pile of leftover bones and animal horns thrown together in a corner of the tribal camp. This reminded him that whether they were wildebeest horns or antelope horns, they were all sharp objects.

Otherwise, tribal warriors would not use horned spears as weapons. In the past, the sisal bushes played a defensive role. Now that the sisal bushes' defensive power has weakened, they can just artificially build a line of defense. Moreover, this kind of defense can be dismantled at any time.

Come on, it will be useful when the tribe moves and camp after a while, and the workload of doing this is not very big. Just get some branches and sharpen them at both ends, mix them with animal horns and fix them with straw ropes, and it can be used as the main defense of the tribe camp.

, sisal bushes near livestock pens and cultivated fields can also be used to enhance the defense effect in this way.

Of course, although these deer rocks have powerful defensive functions, they are only convenient for Zhou Jiping's escape and will not cause any trouble. Zhou Jiping will never let them block his way, and will only let them help him.

In addition, Zhou Jiping also had a suggestion, which was to concentrate the tribal camps in the center and arrange for tribal warriors to light several fires around the camp at night, which could also scare away wild beasts.

After listening to Zhou Jiping's suggestion, the chief and the two elders discussed it and agreed.

Soon, the tribe mobilized manpower to start collecting animal horns and branches. What if there was not enough? Go outside to chop. Zhou Jiping had already planned to take the opportunity to go out and have a look. However, this little cleverness still failed. The chief arranged for the tribe soldiers to go out to chop branches.

Zhou Jiping stayed behind to urge the women to draw enough straw ropes.

In the afternoon, all the materials for making deer rocks were ready. Zhou Jiping called a dozen tribal warriors to give them a demonstration: first insert two wooden sticks into the ground in a herringbone shape, and then use straw ropes to tie the two wooden sticks in a cross with flowers.

Together, insert a wooden stick into the ground at a smaller angle and tie it to one of the wooden sticks, so that Luyan can be more stable and have a larger defensive surface at different heights...

As for the harder horns and bones, Zhou Jiping asked people to put them on wooden sticks and place them at regular intervals, so that Luyan would be more powerful.

As the evening approached, the four hunting teams returned with full loads. As soon as they entered the tribe, they were stunned to see the situation in the tribe. In just one day, the tribe turned into a fortress. Asking why, several hunting captains carefully inspected the surroundings.

Ji Ping called it Luyan. After discussing it for a long time, they all admitted that before the leopard was caught, this was the best solution at the moment. No one could think of a better solution than this.

It was getting late, maybe because Lu Yan looked cold and stern, but the mental state of the tribesmen was better than when the accident happened in the morning. Until the wizard appeared next to the bonfire, the whole tribe was enveloped in a solemn atmosphere.

The wizard first recited a spell to the steaming cauldron placed on the bonfire, and then opened something wrapped in a straw mat at his feet - what was he going to do with the body of the dead child? Burn the body? Zhou Jiping Mo Ming

Its wonderful

I saw the wizard lifting the child up. The child was too thin, and his stiff limbs were like thin branches. Why was his belly deflated? "Plop--" there was a sound, water splashed, and the wizard actually threw the child's body into the pot.

inside!

Zhou Jiping was so shocked that he shouted and stood up. That was a pot used for eating! What is this for? Cannibals?

Seeing Zhou Jiping standing up, Yilin quickly stood up and pulled him to sit down, and then told him: This is the belief of the tribe. If a child dies due to accidental reasons, the entire tribe will eat him so that his soul can remain.

Only in the tribe can you be reborn in the tribe as soon as possible...

No matter what Yilin explained, Zhou Jiping couldn't listen anymore. The blood rushed in his chest and his stomach turned. What the hell is this place? It's barbaric. It's too barbaric. You can't stay here. You must leave. The sooner the better.

!

After an unknown amount of time, amid a burst of sad singing, the tribesmen began to line up to get the broth from the cauldron. The first person to take the broth was the child's mother, and the wizard actually gave her the child's head...

The blood was gushing upwards, and his scalp was throbbing with pain. Zhou Jiping felt like he couldn't breathe.

Everyone served human meat soup, except Zhou Jiping who saw that Zhou Jiping's face was extremely ugly. Yilin took the initiative to serve him the child's broth and put it in front of him, which made Zhou Jiping almost go berserk.

"Shunfeng is in trouble¥%;¥;#¥..." The chief stood on the steps of the wooden shed and spoke in a calm voice, as if he was talking about a very ordinary thing. "Father, let you see those two mothers."

Lin said

Zhou Jiping turned his head, and the mothers of the two children were looking at him expectantly. From their faces, Zhou Jiping saw not only sadness, but also seemed to be full of divine hope.
