“Zheng!”
"Duk!"
There was still some residual snow outside the Blackrock Tribe cave. They were finally allowed to use bows and arrows again, and they could use the bark for the bows and arrows. Holding the bows, they aimed at the tree stumps standing in the distance, shooting again and again. The feather arrows were nailed to the tree stumps, making a 'thump thump' sound.
Compared with before, Shuba's archery skills have declined a lot, which is caused by not touching a bow and arrow for a long time.
Now that he was allowed to own a bow and arrow, Shupi practiced archery very diligently. He wanted to improve his archery skills quickly.
Because he learned from the Black Rock Tribe that when the weather becomes warmer, those tribes that have surrendered to the Black Rock Tribe will bring food and pay it to the Black Rock Tribe.
The Blue Flower Tribe is also one of the many tribes that have surrendered to the Black Stone Tribe. The time will surely come, and it will be impossible not to improve archery skills as quickly as possible.
In fact, Shupi really wanted the Blue Flower Tribe not to pay food to the Black Stone Tribe, because if he did that, the leader of the Black Stone Tribe would lead his people to attack the Blue Flower Tribe, and as a member of the Black Stone Tribe, he would naturally have to go and fight as well.
However, such an idea would not be realized, because as far as he knew, except for the tribes that would rebel in the beginning, now, these surrendered tribes would no longer resist.
During the days of practicing archery on tree bark, the temperature was slowly rising day by day.
Tender grass sprouts are emerging from the withered grass roots, and small buds are also growing on the bare tree branches. Scattered wild flowers are beginning to appear in the fields where the ice and snow have completely melted.
On days like this, tribes that had surrendered to the Black Rock Tribe came one after another, bringing food as payment.
Those who arrived early were basically from tribes that accepted captives from the Bark Tribe.
Because there was an abundance of food in the tribe, people became more generous and straightforward when spending money, and were no longer as stingy as before.
Whenever a tribe came to pay food, Shupi would pay close attention and organize the bow on his back and the arrows at his waist. As a result, none of the tribes that came were from the Blue Flower Tribe.
Tree Bark was disappointed again and again, and at the same time he also hoped that the Blue Flower Tribe would not come to pay for food.
"￥%……DFR!"
The leader of the Blue Flower Tribe, which is located relatively south of the Black Stone Tribe, raised his voice and shouted loudly.
Then, a group of people she had selected, following her orders, carried the food on the ground that was intended to be sent to the Blackrock Tribe, as well as the food they would eat on the road, and followed their leader forward, holding their crude weapons.
Among the tribes that surrendered to the Black Rock Tribe and did not receive captives from the Bark Tribe, the Blue Flower Tribe was the first to go to the Black Rock Tribe to pay food.
This is not because the speed at which they obtained food has greatly increased this year, but because their leader did not let them eat as much as they wanted. Most of the food they obtained was saved and used to pay the Blackrock Tribe.
In the past, such behavior would definitely make some people in the tribe dissatisfied, but this time, these hungry people did not complain at all. Moreover, as they carried the food they had saved and brought with them, and followed their leader to the Blackrock Tribe, they even had smiles on their faces. They were very excited and wished they could get to the evil Blackrock Tribe, which they would never want to go to even if they were killed.
The reason for such a big change is that their leader had already told her grand plan long before they started doing this. Their leader did this in order to see the bark earlier and then get the two magical tools that could obtain a lot of food through the bark.
As long as the tribe has these two tools, the life of the tribe will suddenly become better, and it can become rich like other tribes that have these two tools.
As for whether this trip would be successful, this was not even within their consideration.
Because they have seen the leader's wisdom, they feel that since the leader said so, it will definitely succeed.
The wisdom of the leader of the Blue Flower tribe is recognized by everyone in the tribe. If not, it would not be easy for her to become the leader of the tribe as a woman.
Carrying food and expectations, everyone headed towards the direction of the Blackrock Tribe.
The people of the Blue Flower Tribe who stayed in the cave looked at their leader and those carrying food who were leaving, their eyes full of anticipation.
They all hoped to live the kind of life the leader talked about...
A fine spring rain fell, turning the willow trees green and the peach blossoms red. As the swallows with their own scissors flew low, the Qingque tribe began to plant their first batch of crops.
"ha!"
The eldest brother, standing with his legs apart on a wooden rake with bronze teeth, shouted and shook the reins in his hand.
The two donkeys pulling the wooden rakes received the order and moved forward.
As they moved, the wooden rake and the eldest brother who was standing on the rake and pressing the rake also moved forward. The rake teeth were inserted into the ground twelve or thirteen centimeters deep, leaving traces on the turned over land.
After this, all the dirt and clods of earth became broken into pieces.
The large piece of land that the eldest brother was raking was turned over in the autumn before the New Year. After a winter of thermal expansion and contraction, the clods of earth that originally seemed hard have now become brittle.
The soil becomes very flat and fine after being raked, making it ideal for sowing.
In addition to this benefit, plowing the land before heavy snow falls has another benefit: it can freeze to death pests and insect eggs hidden under the soil, which can effectively reduce the occurrence of diseases and insect pests.
When the eldest brother harrows the land, he does not walk from one end of the land to the other end with the harrow. Instead, he starts from one corner of the land and moves diagonally to the other opposite corner, and then turns after arriving.
After a full circle, it looks like an '8' has been drawn in the field.
This way, the harrowing process can reduce the number of turns back and forth as much as possible, which can greatly improve the efficiency of harrowing.
This method was discovered by the eldest brother after Han Cheng's suggestion. After he practiced it proficiently, he passed it on to the rest of the tribe.
While the eldest brother and some other people were raking the land, someone who was more experienced in sowing came over, leading a deer and carrying a wooden plow, carrying the grains that he had selected for use as seeds, and began to sow.
"Cuckoo cuckoo~cuckoo cuckoo~"
In the distance, a cuckoo was calling continuously, and the sound could be heard from far away.
Inside the silkworm room of the Qingque tribe, Sister Bai Xue, who was scattering some tender mulberry leaves into a winnowing basket, heard the cuckoo's call and subconsciously put one hand on her stomach. When she found that her stomach didn't hurt anymore, she felt relieved.
This was not because Bai Xuemei felt something when she heard the cuckoo's call, but because Han Cheng had told her before that the cuckoo's call was: "Cuckoo cuckoo~ The silkworm is coming out of its belly~"
A silkworm keeper is a person who raises silkworms, and he always has diarrhea.
After saying this, Han Cheng seriously told Bai Xuemei that the reason why the cuckoo calls like this is because it wants to eat silkworms, but because there are silkworm farmers nearby, it does not dare to come over to eat, so it starts calling like this repeatedly.
The purpose is to make the silkworm farmers have diarrhea, so that it will have the opportunity to fly over and eat the silkworms.
Sister Bai Xue didn't believe this serious nonsense at first. After all, how could a bird speak human language?
However, when she listened to the cuckoo's call again as Han Cheng said, she always felt that the cuckoo was saying "cuckoo cuckoo, the silkworms' bellies are bursting."
In this way, Bai Xuemei, the child bride, was fooled by Han Cheng, so now whenever she hears the cuckoo call, she will involuntarily put her hands on her stomach, for she is very worried that she will have diarrhea and her silkworms will be eaten by the bird.
However, after experiencing such things many times, they gradually became indifferent. Later, when she heard the cuckoo's call, she would not only not be worried, but would be quite proud, because no matter how the cuckoo called, she would not have diarrhea.
At the same time, I gradually understood a truth, that is, you will be like this no matter what others say about you, and a big part of it depends on yourself.
For example, a cuckoo will not give itself diarrhea by its call, but if it gets an upset stomach from eating, that won’t work.
This can be considered a relatively simple form of materialism.
"Sister, sister, sister..."
Little Pea was lying next to a cradle, repeating himself like a tape recorder.
While shouting, she would wave a small branch of flowers in her hand in front of Han Xing who was lying in the cradle.
The little baby lying in the cradle laughed with his toothless mouth, and when he laughed so happily, his little fists and feet would kick around randomly.
Seeing Xiao Xing'er so happy, Little Pea, who was lying beside the cradle, also laughed happily, then called her sister even louder and kept shaking the branch in her hand.
Sister Bai Xue, who was feeding some mulberry leaves to the silkworms there, turned her head and looked over here for a while, and a smile appeared on her face...
'#$5^6! '
远处，经过一路的行走，蓝花部落的首领带着人，扛着食物，终于一路来到了黑石部落所在的地方。
远远的看到黑石部落所在的地方之后，蓝花部落的首领高兴的喊叫了起来。
跟在她身后的众人，也都高兴的为之欢呼。
他们来到了黑石部落，在智慧的首领的带领下，他们很快就能得到那两种工具，然后让部落里的人都过上舒适的生活了！
黑石部落洞穴的不远处，蹲在那里磨着箭头的树皮，听到了这边的动静，便和另外一些听到动静的黑石部落的人朝着蓝花部落首领她们看过去。
等到看清楚来的人是谁之后，蹲在那里的树皮一下子就激动了，猛地从地上了站了起来。
而那边，带着部落里的人朝着这里而来的蓝花部落首领，看到了人群中的树皮之后，也变得激动起来，当即就带着人加快了脚步，朝着树皮快步走来。
树皮看着一脸喜色的朝着自己而来的蓝花部落首领，用力的握了握手里的箭和背上的弓，又松开了。
这个时候不能把蓝花部落的首领杀死，因为她背后跟着不少的人，如果这时候把蓝花部落的首领给杀死的话，那些人很有可能会给自己拼命!
所以树皮松开了弓，并把手里握着的这支没有磨好的箭给装到了箭囊之内。
不仅仅是这样，在一脸喜色的蓝花部落首领来到自己跟前的事情，树皮还在脸挤出了笑容。
人是会成长的，所处的环境的变化，以及经历过的事情，这些都会对一个人产生影响，从而促使着一个人发生变化。
在黑石部落生活的这一年多点的时间里，树皮学会了很多，也改变了很多，其中学的最多的、了解的最深的就是隐忍。
尤其是冬天里的时候，做火炕失败，被黑石部落的首领给狠狠的打了一顿、然后通过自己的努力，越来越受到黑石部落首领的信任之后，树皮对这个理解的更深了。
看着对自己笑的树皮，蓝花部落的首领变得更加开心了，脸上的笑容也变的愈发灿烂。
自己猜想的果然没有错，这个蠢笨的家伙，并不知道之前的时候发生的事情。
这让她对此行变得更加充满信心了起来。
和树皮打过招呼之后，蓝花部落的首领以及蓝花部落的人，在黑石部落人的看管之下，又往黑石部落的洞穴出走了一段距离。
在距离洞穴入口大约有四五十米的地方停下，不用黑石部落的人提醒，就非常自觉的将手里拿着的武器放在地上，然后将携带的食物放在一片比较平整的大石头上。
这个时候，手里拿着部落里最为锋利的黑石武器、背后背着部落里射的最远的弓的黑石部落首领从洞穴里面走了出来。
他先仔细的看了蓝花部落的首领一会儿，在脑海里将蓝花部落的首领和她们居住的洞穴位置对应上、确认了她们是哪个部落的人之后，这才开始看蓝花部落的人带来的食物。
对于蓝花部落带来食物，黑石部落的首领还是比较满意的，虽然比不上之前那些拥有鱼笼和弓箭的部落送来的多和好，但是和以往相比，已经算是不错的了，可见这蓝花部落没有弄虚作假。
“#$$￥……”
黑石部落的首领查察看了这些食物之后，满意的点了点头，出声说了一阵儿，而后伸手往一个方向指了指。
他所指的方向就是蓝花部落刚刚过来的方向。
意思很明显，就是东西已经收到了，你们已经没有了用途，从哪里来，就赶紧往哪里去。
不要想着在他们黑石部落多呆，他们可不会管饭。
黑石部落的首领就是这样的干脆直接。
蓝花部落首领当然明白黑石部落首领的意思，毕竟之前在往黑石部落送食物的时候，黑石部落首领看过送来的食物之后，都是这个样子。
以往的时候，看到黑石部落的首领做出这个动作之后，蓝花部落的首领就会麻溜的带着人滚蛋，黑石部落她是一刻都不想多呆。
但是这次不一样了，这次她可是有目的的，目的没有达到之前，她怎会舍得离开？
毕竟为了这次的行程，她还有部落里的不少人都没少饿肚子。
“#￥5DE……”
蓝花部落的首领手舞足蹈的比划着，向黑石部落首领表达着她不想离开的意思。
黑石部落的首领眉头渐渐的皱了起来，他还等着享用蓝花部落送来的这些食物呢，结果这些人却不准备离开了，这是什么意思？想要自己部落管她们食物吃吗？
这样的念头一起，黑石部落的首领就紧了紧手里握着的黑石武器，有一言不合就打上一架的意思。
黑石部落首领的怒气来的快，去的也快，因为手舞足蹈、呜哩哇啦的说了一阵儿的蓝花部落首领，将裹在身上兽皮给解了下来，露出了雄壮的胸肌。
不仅仅如此，她还伸手拉住黑石部落首领的一只胳膊，指指不远处的大片枯草丛，然后拉着黑石部落的首领往那边走。
此时正是春天，虽然黑石部落这里还是早春，但人的身体已经感受到了那越来越浓的春天的气息。
而且蓝花部落的首领长得还比较壮硕，按照此时普遍的审美观点来看，是属于很美的那种。
所以被她这样一拉拉扯，黑石部落的首领就跟着她一起去了。
两个部落首领都这样了，剩下的两个部落的人，当然也不会客气，纷纷行动起来。
这样的事情，在现在人看来或许会觉得不适应，但在这个时代却是非常普遍的事情，毕竟每个部落的人就那么多，如果不通过这样的方式来得到一些新鲜的血脉，长时间的下去之后，整个部落都极有可能会出现大问题，整个消亡都说不定。
这里面的深层次原因他们或许不知道，但是却在用非常好和有效的办法在解决这这件事情。
黑石部落的首领，和蓝花部落的首领是进去的最早的那一对，同时也是出来最快的那一对。
只不过出来的时候状态不太一样，蓝花部落的首领看起来精神饱满，黑石部落的首领则比较瞌睡。
蓝花部落的首领目光在这里扫视了一圈，看到了蹲在那里看着自己的树皮，心里一喜，就朝着树皮走过去。
她本来还有些担心树皮和其余人走了，她不太好找，现在树皮居然蹲在那里那里没有动弹。
“#￥5E！”
蓝花部落的首领来到蹲在地上的树皮跟前笑着说道，并对树皮伸出了一只手。
面对蓝花部落首领这样的邀请树皮当然不会拒绝。
他之前一直都在想找什么样的机会，把这个让黑石部落的人过去残害他们部落的人给杀死，想了好久，想出的最好的办法也没有现在的情形好。
当即就伸出手握住了蓝花部落首领伸来的手，从地上站起，和蓝花部落首领一块往枯草丛里走去。
蓝花部落的首领看着被树皮背在背上的弓，以及挂在腰间的箭囊，再看看拉着自己的手一起往里面走去的树皮，脸上的笑容变得更加浓郁了。
事情出乎预料的顺利，比她所料想的最好的情况都要好，这如何不让她开心？
尤其是树皮居然还随身带着这样的工具。
对于刚刚和他钻了草丛的蓝花部落首领，现在又和树皮一起去钻草丛，，黑石部落首领看在眼里，却连半点别的意思都没有，因为此时此刻的他，只想睡上一觉。
“#￥5@3……”
蓝花部落的首领和树皮趟着齐腰深的枯草往里面走去，走了一阵儿，看看距离其余人已经比较远了，迫不及待的想要从树皮这里得到弓箭以及鱼笼这两种工具的蓝花部落首领，就出声说了话，意思是这里就可以了。
树皮左右看看，摇了摇头，伸手往更深处指了指。
蓝花部落的首领见状，脸上再度露出笑容来，因为她觉得树皮实在是太贴心了，就跟知道她所想的东西一样。
当即就跟着树皮往荒草丛的更深处走去。
此时的树皮同样也非常的开心，他也没有想到，想了这么久的事情，如今真的开始实施了，居然是前所未有的顺利。
两个都非常高兴的人，手牵着手往前又走了一段距离，然后踩倒了一片的荒草。
树皮将背上背着的弓还有腰间背着的箭囊取下放在一边，蓝花部落的首领一双眼睛则不住的打量这两样东西，心中一片的火热。
用不了太久，这些东西她们部落就能够拥有了，在这样的情况下，她觉得自己一定能够从树皮口中得知关于这两种工具的一切事情。
“#￥5D%%……”
一番翻腾过后，躺在枯草地上蓝花部落首领开始了她蓄谋已久的计划。
她开口对树皮说，她想要看看那弓箭，并且想要知道这弓箭怎么用。
This place is far away from other people, so she can speak without restraint without worrying about being heard by other people in the Blackrock Tribe.
Things turned out just as she had expected. After hearing her request, the not-so-smart Tree Bark took the bow from the side and handed it to her without much hesitation.
The leader of the Blue Flower tribe sat up and took the bow from Shupi. He was extremely excited and clenched his hands tightly.
She finally got such a tool in her hands!
"#45#!"
When the leader of the Blue Flower tribe was holding the bow tightly with an excited look on his face and was unwilling to let go, Shupi pulled out a feather arrow from the quiver and threw the quiver aside with all his strength...
