Chapter 21 A complete misunderstanding
Not knowing how many people were coming from the other side, Zhong Jialing and Feng Qi stood up nervously.
Everyone stood opposite each other, looking at each other quietly.
According to historians, the people of the Upper Cave were not tall. The average height of men was about 1.75 meters, while the average height of women was only about 1.6 meters.
But the girl in front of him was at least 1.7 meters tall, only about five or six centimeters shorter than Feng Qi.
Perhaps due to her daily labor, the girl's limbs are very strong, and her skin color is dark due to years of exposure to wind and sun.
Her hair was very long, probably never cut since she was born. It was wrapped around her neck several times, and the part that hung down reached her knees.
Her eyes were clear, without any radiation from electronic devices, with distinct black and white, and they stared at the two of them with a sharp gaze.
Although he knew that the cavemen couldn't speak, Feng Qi still lowered his voice.
"I'll go and lure her away, you wake up the nine girls, otherwise she'll call her tribe over and it'll be troublesome."
"Okay! But how do you lead him away?"
Feng Qi showed an expression that said, "If you look at me, you're done for." He stepped over the fire and jumped out of the cave. The woman took a few steps back swiftly, keeping a distance cautiously.
Feng Qi pointed at the girl and said, "If you catch up with me, I'll give you something good. Do you understand?"
Zhong Jialing held her forehead with her hand and said, "She looked confused. It's obvious that she didn't understand."
Feng Qi had no choice but to say, "Then don't blame me for being presumptuous."
She quickly stepped forward and patted the girl on the shoulder, then waved her hand with a deliberate smile, "Come on, chase me!"
The girl was obviously unhappy, but she didn't move. So Feng Qi continued to be presumptuous, and the second time he quickly touched her head and jumped away, and the third time he simply slapped her butt.
As expected, the girl became furious and chased after him with anger in her eyes.
Feng Qi's main event is not long-distance running, but as a martial artist, her physical fitness and endurance are definitely better than most people.
At the beginning, she was afraid that if she ran too fast, the girl would not be able to catch up and would stop chasing her, so she only used 50% of her strength.
As a result, the girl quickly caught up with her, slapped her on the butt, and then imitated her previous shameless behavior and waved her hand provocatively.
"Hey?" Feng Qi never expected that he would be teased by a primitive man, so he chased after him with all his might.
After a while, he slapped back the opponent and continued to act like a jerk, "Hey, hit me back if you have the guts!"
The caveman was so angry that he bared his teeth, his breathing became rapid, and he chased after him madly.

Luo Jiu and Cheng Yaoyao were awakened by Zhong Jialing. It was already dawn.
Luo Jiu came out with a telescope and saw two figures shuttling back and forth in the woods. Feng Qi looked back and smiled from time to time, and the primitive girl was chasing after him breathlessly. If you didn't know, you would think they were going for a morning jog.
The two chased each other for more than half an hour. Feng Qi's stomach was growling with hunger. He looked back and saw that the girl was still chasing him.
"Stop!" Feng Qi raised his hands. "You just want to fight back, right? Come on, I'll fight you."
Feng Qi patted his butt and raised it up for her to hit.
The girl seemed to be unable to believe it, and walked over hesitantly, hit him quickly, then ran in front of her, waved at her, and asked her to chase him.
"I won't chase you anymore. I'm hungry. I'm going home to eat. You can go home too. You can go your way and I'll go mine."
Feng Qi rubbed his belly and waved, "Bye!"
Feng Qi ran back hungry, and everyone quickly set up the table to have breakfast.
Milk, soy milk, fried dough sticks, tofu pudding, millet porridge, as well as sauerkraut pork pies and big steamed buns with chicken sauce and fresh meat.
Just as everyone picked up their bowls, Luo Jiuyi raised his chin and asked, "What did you do to him? Why did he chase us all the way here?"
Feng Qi turned around and saw that it was that girl again, standing at the entrance of the cave.
"Hey, didn't I tell you I won't chase you anymore? Can't I let you hit me again?"
She went out with a frown on her face, and the girl suddenly handed her two wild fruits.
Feng Qi took it in a daze. The girl picked one up and took a bite, as if telling her that it was edible.
"Um!"
"Well what do you mean? Let me eat?"
Feng Qi looked at the fruit he had never seen before, turned around and asked Luo Jiu: "Do you recognize this? Can you eat it?"
Luo Jiu smiled and said, "The stomachs of primitive people are similar to ours. They give it to you out of kindness, so just eat it."
Luo Jiu took out two fresh meat buns and took a bite in front of the girl. Then he handed one to her and said, "It's a courtesy. Eat it."
The girl held the hot buns and kept looking at them. Finally, she seemed to make up her mind and took one, two, and three bites, then wolfed them down, even licking the gravy that flowed onto her hands.
While Feng Qi and Luo Jiu were stunned, the girl seemed to have thought of something and turned around and ran away.
Cheng Yaoyao: "She...she won't ask someone to snatch the food from us, right?"
Feng Qi immediately denied: "No, she is not that kind of person."
Although Feng Qi had only had a brief contact with this girl, she had a strong intuition that she was a primitive person with "humanity". She was not cruel or brutal, but wanted to fight back when she was teased. She picked fruit for her when she was hungry. She really didn't seem like a bad person.
Luo Jiu also said: "If she wanted to steal the food, she should have snatched the bun from my hand immediately, but she didn't. I hope she is a friend and not an enemy, but even if everyone comes to steal the food, we are not afraid.
They are still in the Paleolithic Age, and their only weapons are stones. Although we only have some cold weapons, it is more than enough to deal with them. If nothing else, a few Molotov cocktails thrown at them can wipe them out.
But they are human beings, not zombies. I think it is better for them to live in peace and not to start a war. "
After breakfast, Feng Qi placed the wooden man practicing martial arts on the open space at the entrance of the cave, and everyone exercised together.
Everyone was sweating profusely while practicing, and when they turned around, the girl came again.
She got a leaf as big as a basin from somewhere and wrapped it in a bulging bag, which turned out to be a large bag of wild fruits when it was opened.
"Oh my God!" Feng Qi frowned as she looked at the fruit. She took a bite and it was extremely sour. She really didn't know how these primitive people could eat it.
Luo Jiu bit his tongue, "What does this mean? Did you... did you misunderstand?"
She remembered that a book said that when humans had no currency, they used barter, but they really didn't need these wild fruits.
Luo Jiu used all his strength to explain to the primitive girl, "I just gave you a bun, it's not an exchange. We don't eat fruit, it's sour, too sour."
Seeing that the original girl still looked confused, Luo Jiu hurriedly said, "Come on, let's demonstrate it to her."
Each of the four of them took a bite of the fruit, then fell to the ground with their mouths twisted and their brows frowned, waving their hands wildly.
The girl looked at them worriedly until they returned to normal, then she smiled.
"Hey, she can actually laugh?"
Everyone laughed, wrapped the fruits again in leaves and stuffed them into her hands. The girl finally agreed to take the fruits away.
Because we don’t know how long we will stay here, we decided to continue stockpiling in order to make full use of the space and save supplies as much as possible.
There are many large and small forests nearby. In ancient times, when there were very few humans, the earth's resources were simply inexhaustible.
"Let's set a small goal first," Luo Jiu said, "We cut down a tree every day, keep half for burning and store the other half in space, and accumulate little by little."
For safety reasons, you need to familiarize yourself with the surrounding environment first. Especially since you are on the same mountain as the cavemen, you need to avoid risks and conflicts.
Luo Jiu discussed with Feng Qi, "Let's go out tomorrow to find out the situation and identify the safe area."
"good."
"I don't know where their cave is or how many people there are." Luo Jiu murmured, "Next time she comes to see you, follow her secretly and see where they live."
Feng Qi chuckled, "Why would she look for me? It's more likely that she would look for you. She might be thinking about the big bun you gave her."
There was no conversation that night. When the day just dawned, Feng Qi was woken up by Luo Jiu who was on duty. "Hurry up, I'm here to look for you for a morning run again."
Feng Qi was dazed. As soon as she walked out, the girl patted her on the butt and waved to her to chase her.
Feng Qi was helpless and looked back. Luo Jiu winked at her and said, "Go ahead. Don't forget what I told you last night. Be careful."
