Huwa didn't think much about it. At his age, he couldn't do complicated reasoning. He just saw the simplest facts. The products of primitive tribes are always in a state of extreme scarcity, and nothing is in excess.
Even if you can barely save it, you can still take it out and exchange it for other things. Only when everyone can come up with more and better things can your survival and life be better guaranteed.
Li Qingshui in the distance heard his words and couldn't help but secretly approve. The truth Huwa saw may not be applicable to everything in Li Qingshui's opinion, but it is completely correct in this matter. If both
Since we think that the more we have for others and ourselves, the more we have for ourselves and others, we should follow the trend.
Spring passed and autumn came, time gradually passed for another three years, and Huwa was eight years old. When he finally entered the second realm from the first realm, it was Li Qingshui who first discovered it, and Huwa encountered the road to the end in the wilderness.
The first crisis test after the village.
In the past three years, the various tribes in the wilderness had occasional disputes, but they were all resolved. Each tribe also gradually established a foothold in the central valley, and there were more and more exchanges and integrations between people. Ruoshan was often not in the village.
, lived in that valley for a lot of time, and the Lucun people also built houses there as a stronghold and sent people to take turns guarding them.
Although Huahai Village and Lu Village have not yet merged into a tribe as they did many years later, and the newly opened fields have not yet been connected into one piece, their contacts are much closer than three years ago, and intermarriage between the two villages is also more frequent.
.The eight-year-old Hu baby has grown a lot taller than three years ago, and his body is much stronger, but he is not as sturdy as other strong men. His body shape is very even, and he still looks a bit thin and tender.
.
The azure vine ring that had been with him since childhood was already a little tight around his ankle. He took it off and put it on his wrist. It was still a little loose, but it was no longer slipping. The patriarch, Shan Ye, was often away from the village, so now
He rarely leads hunting teams anymore. The person leading the hunting team in Lucun was replaced by Bo Zhuang. He still takes Panhu with him every time he goes hunting.
Neither Shanye nor Panhu were in the village that day, and the weather was gloomy, as if it was raining but it never came. It made people feel nervous and uncomfortable, but they couldn't tell what was causing the discomfort.
Huwa felt inexplicably bored and couldn't cheer up. He didn't go out to play and rested very early.
In the middle of the night, Huwa had a rare clear dream. In the dream, he couldn't see anything but darkness. What he felt was not fear, but hunger, thirst, and discomfort.
After dawn, there was a light rain in the mountains. After the rain, the clouds opened and the fog dispersed. The air was extremely fresh, and a rainbow hung in the mountains. Huwa ate the swan eggs and swan meat sent by Huahai Village again, and felt inexplicably
Feeling refreshed and the uncomfortable feeling completely gone, he ran out to play again.
Huwa walked across the wooden bridge, passed through a small newly opened hemp forest and bean field, left the mountain road and entered a jungle with mixed vegetation. This place is between Lu Village and Huahai Village. Although it is also a primitive jungle, it is
There are very few wild beasts in and out, so it is considered a relatively safe area, but there are occasional dangers.
Huwa often travels between Huahai Village and Lucun. The eight-year-old child cannot always just walk on the mountain road. Occasionally he will go to the mountains and forests to explore. There are bean sprouts in this area of the mountains and forests, which is a symbol of the tribe.
Seeds sown at will can be harvested naturally. The beans often attract pheasants to peck at them.
Huwa saw a pheasant flapping its wings on the mountain road and ran into the forest from behind. He had a linen bag slung over his shoulder, which contained treasures he had collected since childhood - several eggs.
The same stone. Huwa's eyesight is very good. He can accurately capture the flight path of the pheasant through the shadow of the trees, and find a way through the dense forest.
The pheasant stopped on a branch, and the tiger child approached quietly, trying not to make a sound, using the cover of the trees to avoid being seen by the pheasant, and staying close to the downwind position. The eight-year-old child was not yet allowed to join the hunting team in the village.
The movements were learned naturally, and they may be imitating Panhu. Panhu has long been the number one hunting expert in Lu Village, and often plays with Huwa. Huwa has seen with his own eyes how Panhu hunts pheasants.
Several feet away, Huwa took out a stone and threw it out with all his strength. The egg-like stone drew a beautiful trajectory in the forest and accurately hit the base of the pheasant's wing. One side of the pheasant
The root of the wing was broken, and he flapped his other wing and struggled to fall into the bushes.
However, Huwa did not immediately run over to pick up the prey. The moment after the stone hit the pheasant, an arrow suddenly flew from the opposite direction. It missed the pheasant but hit the falling stone in the air, creating a string of refracted sparks.
He came out and flew down to the cliff outside the forest. Huwa shouted in the direction of the arrow: "Who is it? You almost shot me!"
Huwa's perception was already very sharp, but he had just come over quietly from another direction, and his attention was entirely on the pheasant. And the man was already lurking in the bushes, and was relatively far away from him, so he didn't
Discovered. This arrow was suddenly shot from the opposite side. Huwa had learned to judge the flight trajectory of the arrow since he was a child. He could see that the arrow could not hit the pheasant. If it had not been rubbed by a stone, it would have deviated from the direction and finally landed in the direction of the pheasant.
However, he happened to be able to shoot himself in the forest.
Huwa didn't mean to blame the other party, and the other party probably didn't notice him. It was just an accident, but he was indeed startled. At this time, a person also jumped out of the bushes, running quickly to the place where the pheasant fell.
, he was startled when he heard Huwa's voice. He stopped and turned around and shouted in surprise: "Why is it you!"
Huwa also recognized this person, who was the "monkey" from Huahai Village. This man had defrauded people from Lu Village three years ago and was identified by him in public. Later, Huwa was punished by Huahai Village according to clan rules.
He replied: "It turns out you were hunting pheasants here. The arrow you just shot didn't hit the pheasant, but it almost hit me."
In the past few years, Huwa often went to Huahai Village to play. The villagers liked him very much. Only the monkey looked at him more and more displeased. Since that embarrassing incident, the tribesmen have no good feelings towards the monkey and usually only treat him.
He was assigned heavy tasks such as cultivating fields in the mountains, but there was no benefit for him to embezzle.
Everything obtained from collective hunting and gathering must be collectively distributed among the tribe. Not allowing monkeys to participate means distrusting them, but it is not the fault of others.
Not only was the monkey tied to a stone in Lu Village and exposed to the sun for a day, but when he returned to Huahai Village, he was severely beaten with a cane by the clan leader Gu Xin, which made the clan members feel ashamed and took it as a warning. After the punishment,
This incident has passed, but the pain is not over for the monkey. He has lost the trust of his tribe and will have no chance to get more benefits.
When the clan distributes things, he always fails to get the best share. In three years, he has never eaten swan eggs, let alone swan meat, and he has never eaten swan eggs when the clan members collectively go out to pick swan eggs.
Will call him. What is even more depressing is that Huwa, a child from a foreign village, has a complete swan egg to eat every time, and can often eat swan meat.
Yesterday, Huahai Village organized tribesmen to pick up a lot of swan eggs and hunted a few swans. Today, the leader of the Gu Xin tribe took people to Lu Village and sent eggs and meat to Huwa, and the monkeys were a little bit
Didn't get any.
Of course, Monkey regretted that he had done such a thing, which had never happened in the tribe. But he often thought that if the little cub Huwa hadn't pointed him out, he wouldn't have to suffer these sins.
When the monkey sees the tiger child, he always feels that this child has eaten the swan meat and swan eggs that should have been distributed to him, and has also taken away the happiness that should have belonged to him.
Today, the tribesmen all went to do other things, and assigned him to dig fields on the hillside. The monkey was also greedy, so he quietly took out the best bow and arrow in the tribe from the warehouse, and ran to the forest below to hunt pheasants. What if
If he was lucky enough to hunt something, he would quietly find a place to roast it and eat it, then wipe his mouth clean and put the bow and arrow back quietly so that no one would know.
The monkey was very lucky. Not long after he hid in the grass, he saw a pheasant flying and landing on a branch. He shot an arrow, and the pheasant fell down. He felt a burst of ecstasy in his heart and quickly jumped out to pick up the prey. Unexpectedly, someone suddenly appeared.
There was a sound, and he turned around and saw that it was Huwa.
Hearing Huwa's words, the monkey felt a surge of anger in his heart. He waved the bow in his hand and shouted: "It was obviously the pheasant that I shot! You kid, why are you always talking nonsense?"
Huwa took out another egg-like object from the sack and replied seriously: "You didn't shoot the pheasant, but it was knocked down by my stone. Didn't you see the sparks in the sky just now? Arrow
How could there be sparks when the chicken was shot? It was because the arrow rubbed against the stone and did not hit the chicken."
The monkey didn't have the good eyesight of the tiger boy. He didn't see this clearly at all, and shouted angrily: "What nonsense! How can you kill a pheasant with a stone from such a distance? It was obviously my arrow.
Winning! You kid, just because everyone likes you, do you want to steal my things? Let me tell you, there is no one else here, so I won’t be polite!"
Huwa shook his head and said: "I didn't want to snatch your pheasant, but it was indeed hit by a stone and not shot by you. Wouldn't it be clear if you took a look?"
The pheasant that landed on the ground was still flapping in the grass, but it was entangled in the bushes and thorns. The monkey ran over and took a look, and was immediately dumbfounded. The pheasant did not have his arrow stuck in it, but had a broken wing. Not far away.
There was also a pebble the size of an egg lying there, and there was a mark on the pebble that it had been rubbed by something hard and sharp.
The monkey suddenly felt a little panicked, turned around and asked: "Where did you throw stones when I was hunting, and where did my arrows fly away?"
