Shao Xuan lifted the curtain and walked in. Caesar also squeezed in, but it didn't dare to touch it everywhere. Once, it was curious about an object in the room and sniffed it. As soon as it touched, it was pinched its nose. It couldn't be pinched with its claws. The more it slid, the tighter it got. Even if Shao Xuan quickly helped it take off the clip, it still hurt for a long time. After that, Caesar was very honest every time he came here, and only followed Shao Xuan, not too curious.

Ke's house is bigger than most people nearby, about 100 square meters, and the house is full of various stone tools, from stone cups and stone bowls used for daily use to hunting, stone knives, spearheads, etc. There are many types, organic tools such as antlers and animal bones, and there are also all stone-like, but the most is compound type, that is, the combination of the first two, and the warriors in the composite tool tribe use the most.

After scanning the tools that were hanging on his eyes, Shao Xuan withdrew his gaze and went directly to the small room where Ke polished the tools.

Ke sat there with gray hair and old look, because the stone tools were polished every day, the animal skins on her body were stained with gray stone powder, and the hands holding the stone tools were covered with calluses and a layer of gray white.

Ke's eyes were always on the polished stone tool, and he did not move away just because Shao Xuan came in, as if the whole world only had the stone tool in his hand.

Because she understood Ke's personality, Shao Xuan took out the animal skin bag and took out the two stones inside and handed them to Ke.

"Uncle Ke, can you help polish two stone knives or daggers?"

The two stones that Shao Xuan took out were only short swords and daggers, not long.

Ke stopped the work at hand, looked up at the stone handed over by Shao Xuan, and looked at the two fish that Shao Xuan dragged over, "Yes, leave one." It means that it can be polished, and a hand-paying fee is enough.

"Both are left, and the other one is given to you by me. Thank you for your help in the past six months." Shao Xuan said with a smile.

Every time I picked up a stone that could be processed, I came to Ke to exchange it. At first, Shao Xuan was not familiar with the business and found some bad stones, but Ke still changed the food. Later, Shao Xuan was able to identify the stones, and then he realized that how could people who came into contact with different stones to polish stone tools every day not be able to recognize the quality of the stones? It can only be said that Ke was intentional.

Although Ke always had a tight face, which gave people a sense of alienation, he had indeed helped Shao Xuan a lot. In addition, Shao Xuan saw the Ge who was responsible for transporting food appear here two days ago. When he talked to Ke, he was familiar with his words. Obviously, the two of them had a good relationship. Shao Xuan guessed that when Ku left the cave and went up the mountain, Ge asked Shao Xuan to take over the management cave. It was probably the reason for this stone master.

Ke frowned and was about to speak, Shao Xuan hurriedly took out a small stone knife and handed it to Ke: "Uncle Ke, this is a newly polished stone knife I have, please show it."

The stone material of Shao Xuan’s stone knife is not a good stone material. According to the standards of stone masters, it only has the middle and lower quality, which is slightly better than the materials of the stones on the gravel floor. It doesn’t take much effort to polish it. Shao Xuan grinds it in three days.

Ke took it and took a look. His fingers stained with stone powder gently brushed past the knife, and finally pointed at one-third of the handle of the knife, "This is not possible."

Shao Xuan knew that experienced stone tools could see the shortcomings of stone tools at a glance, such as knives, and they could see the most failure of tools when grinding them. What Ke just pointed out was to tell Shao Xuan that here, the most failure of grinding them.

Why is it the most failed?

After all, Shao Xuan is an outsider, and when polishing stone tools, he only takes it for granted. Shao Xuan doesn't understand the so-called technical skills in the eyes of stone tools. In Ke's eyes, this stone knife is naturally full of failures, and the place he just pointed out is the failure of failure.

The more people you come into contact with, the deeper you know about this tribe, the more you know Shao Xuan. You cannot underestimate the wisdom and ability of the people here. When you take out this stone knife, Shao Xuan also wants to learn more polishing skills from here.

This stone knife only sharpened the shape of a knife, and it is usually used as a matter of use. It is naturally far from the use of warriors who go out to hunt. In the eyes of the stone master, there are disadvantages everywhere, where it is easy to break, where it is too polished, where it is slightly less heated, etc., you can see it at a glance.

You can tell that this person is not very satisfied by looking at the expression on Ke's face. This is because Shao Xuan is a child and has no experience in polishing stone knifes. If other soldiers come over and give Ke a stone tool like this, Ke will not say much, and just throw the knife away, too lazy to say it, and ignore it thoroughly.

"Uncle Ke, can I learn to polish stone tools from you?" Shao Xuan asked. His time is not tight now, and there is still the coming winter. If he can learn some techniques for polishing stone tools, he can practice more when he is in a cave in winter. Anyway, he has the stones on hand.

Unfortunately, Ke shook his head when he heard this, "Not now, I'll talk about it when you wake up."

To grind a stone, you have to wait for the power of totem to awaken? What is the reason?

Although he was puzzled, Shao Xuan still didn't continue asking questions tactfully. He knew that he didn't want to explain in detail after seeing Ke like that.

Since Ke said this, there are naturally his reasons. But...

Shao Xuan calculated that after this winter, he would be ten years old. Judging from the situation of other children in the cave, those who were awakened at the age of 11 or 2 early, and they had to wait for at least one or two years. Those who were late were like Ku, and they could only awaken until they were thirteen or thirteen years old.

Thinking about this, there will be a long time left.

Although I can't learn it now, I can always see it. Shao Xuan squatted beside him and watched the grinding stone tool.

Some things are simple, but when you really get started, you realize that it is completely different from what you imagined. Shao Xuan looked at the short knife that Ke polished and then looked at the one he polished... Tsk, it's really not better. You don't have to look at the stone, you can clearly see the advantages and disadvantages by just looking at the appearance. No wonder Ke looked at the knife that Shao Xuan polished himself just now, and he probably had already complained thousands of times. Seeing that Shao Xuan was just a child, he didn't scold him.

It was not until it was getting dark that Shao Xuan Gangke set up a stone pot and lit the fire, and chopped the fish, and then said goodbye and left, taking Caesar back to the cave.

Shortly after Shao Xuan left, Ke put the polished stone tools in the box and wiped his hands to prepare food. The water in the stone pot had boiled. When he put Shao Xuan's already cut fish into the stone pot, there was a slight sound from the window behind him, followed by the sound of a whizzing arrow flying.

"Oh!"

Dong!

The person who climbed into the window fell to the ground.

Ke didn't even raise his eyes, and he held a spoon and stirred it in the stone pot.

"Hey, I said Lao Ke, why are you changing your tricks again? Hiss..." The one-armed grid rubbed his butt, and his buttocks hit the ground first, and he fell. There was a circle of leather rope on his feet tightly binding his legs. Otherwise, he wouldn't have just turned the window and fell down. He just lacked an arm and had no legs. How could he fall so easily under normal circumstances?

There were still cursing, and here he continued to stir the soup in the stone pot, ignoring the fact that he was talking nonsense when he came in after rummaging in the window.

After finally untiing the leather rope, I stood up. After smelling it, I immediately came to the stone pot and said, "Fish soup?"

After scanning the room, seeing the fish placed next to it, Ge smiled, "Have you been here?"

"..." Ke didn't say anything.

"That boy Ah Xuan brought the fish to me yesterday to exchange for a large bag of salt. The goal is very big. I went to the cave today to take a look. Wow, you don't know, the cave is full of fish, and those little guys have had a good time this winter. No wonder you recommended that the boy Ah Xuan take over Ku at that time. Not to mention how long it took, the situation in the cave changed a lot. Half of the salt on my hand was replaced by that boy." Ge sighed.

There is a naturally formed salt pond near the mountain where the tribe is located. The salt of the tribe comes from there, but the tribe has control over salt and regularly gives each household a certain amount of salt to ensure the minimum living needs. No matter how much you have to change it, you have to change it yourself. Don’t think about stealing it. There are soldiers guarding it near the salt pond. Those who are responsible for the affairs of the salt pond are all in the mountains. People in the downhill area who want more salt will go up the mountain to find someone to change it. However, Ge is responsible for food, so he can naturally keep more in his hands, so Shao Xuan directly took the fish to him.

Seeing that Ke still didn't say anything, Ge found a stone bench and sat down, and said to himself, "I saw that boy polishing a stone knife the day before yesterday. Today he came here to ask you to give guidance?" Without waiting for Ke to answer, Ge continued, "Actually, that boy is pretty good. He is very energetic and has a flexible mind. He looks like you, and is suitable for making things about you. Since he has found him and is sincere, why don't you put it?"

He glanced at the chopped fish pieces on the table, and his eyes fell on the stone pot that was set up. This was different from the way Lao Ke built a stone pot. It was obvious that it was set up by someone else, and it was not as stable as Lao Ke built it. It was thought that it was the hands of the boy who came here just now.

Ke shook his head and spoke out this time: "It's easy to get hurt."

"Yes, it's not good if there is an accident. After all, the things you fiddled with... are quite dangerous."

Gripped off an arrow that was wearing under his armpit on the animal leather jacket. When he came in just now, he only paid attention to the arrows that were shot. He didn't pay attention to the leather rope close to the window ridge, so he fell into the trap.

It was obviously just a small wooden arrow that could be easily cut off with just one finger, but just now it could penetrate his fur clothes in the blink of an eye, which shows how fast it was shot out.

He held a small arrow half-length long and turned it flexibly between his fingers. After playing for a while, he moved his fingers and flicked it gently, and the small arrow was accurately shot into the thin wooden tube hanging in the corner.

He didn't know where these small arrows were shot from just now, so he could only put them in the wooden tube first. The wooden tube was filled with things he threw. After he had enough, he would take out all the things inside and put them back.

"Lao Ke, you have to wait for some of them. According to the physique of the children in the cave, you have to wait for at least two more years." Ge sighed.
