Chapter 14 Heading to the jungle (recommend and collect)
As the woman cried with tears, Luo Chong took the bone pieces and scraped red marks on the child. The child was still frowning in pain and crying.
The child's mother was held down by two women. She wanted to take her child back. She didn't know what the leader was going to do. She only knew that her child was scratched in pain and the child kept crying. She seriously suspected that this was some weird cooking method. After all, the leader was good at some inexplicable eating methods, such as boiling meat.
But the leader was not as cruel as she thought. After the boy was scratched with red marks on both sides, he returned the child to her.
Luo Chong also wrapped the animal skins for the two of them, and then took a bowl of fish soup from the stone basin where the meat was boiled, and fed it to her child one spoonful at a time. He had to blow on each spoonful first, and the fish meat had to be mashed before feeding the child with the fish soup.
The child didn't know how many days he had been hungry, and he swallowed it without chewing.
It's OK, she can eat, there's still hope. Fortunately, I bought the mother and daughter back today, otherwise, if I waited another day, I'm afraid the child would be thrown away. After drinking half a bowl of soup, as long as she can sweat in a while, her life will be saved.
The woman was completely relieved. Although she didn't know what the leader was doing just now, he personally fed the child, so it was impossible for him to harm the child.
After relaxing, she felt hungry. Her stomach rumbled like a drum after not eating for two days, and she drooled at the fish soup in front of her.
Luo Chong poured her another big bowl of fish soup with a big piece of fish meat, and gave her two thin wooden sticks.
"Here, eat it, we are all members of the same tribe from now on."
Luo Chong comforted her while demonstrating to her how to use chopsticks, regardless of whether she understood or not, and he would teach them to speak when he was free in winter.
Luo Chong took the child from her arms, held him in his arms and wrapped him tightly with animal skins. He was very worried when he saw the tribesmen clumsily using chopsticks to eat.
A small fever can kill a person. Now the problem of food has been solved temporarily, but what about clothes? There are not enough animal skins to begin with, and there are not enough for the people in the tribe. Now there are nine naked people. The pregnant women are about to give birth in two months. What will happen to the newborn babies? How many of them can survive?
It is said that this tribe has settled here for so many years, and there should be a lot of animal skins saved, but they don’t know how to nitrate animal skins. As a result, they all rot after one or two years of use. There is no stock at all.
After coming here for several days, Luo Chong has never gone out. The largest prey brought back by the hunting team every day is lynx, that is, mountain cat, but that depends on luck. The others are either gray rabbits or groundhogs as big as rabbits. There has never been a large animal that he wants to see.
Of course, the hunting team does not have the ability, let alone the equipment. If you want to kill a large animal with a stick, you have to catch up. Without the right weapons, it is just a thought to want to hunt large animals.
I wanted to make a few spears, but the sticks they found today were not straight. The two sticks that were usable were rough and rough, which could wear off the calluses on my hands. How could I use them?
I had to go out and find materials to make weapons. No matter how bad it was, I had to make a few traps. At least everyone had to have a piece of clothing before winter came.
After everyone finished eating, the little boy was sweating. Luo Chong fed him some hot salt water to replenish water. He had a good sleep and would still be a good boy tomorrow.
Just when Luo Chong was feeding him water, the little boy woke up and struggled in the animal skin, probably because he felt hot. Luo Chong hugged him tightly. If he caught a cold at this time, he would be hopeless.
The salt water was not good to drink, so he closed his mouth, frowned, and stared at Luo Chong with his round black eyes. Luo Chong also looked at him, and he almost cried. The child began to call for his mother.
Luo Chong handed the child to the woman and asked her to wrap him up, telling her that the child would die if she dared to untie the animal skin. The woman understood and thought that if the animal skin was untied, the child would die. This was a very simple meaning, so she hugged the child tightly.
The child twisted and turned in his mother's arms, and kept staring at Luo Chong. Luo Chong kept smiling at him, which made the child so angry that he had no idea what to do. If he knew how to curse, he would have cursed a long time ago.
Luo Chong asked someone for a snake skin and tied his hair together after the boy kept struggling. He also gave him a name, Qubing, which really counts as a person's name. You have to know that others are just nicknames in Luo Chong's mind.
The woman was very happy. The leader of the new tribe treated them very well and saved his child. The child who was half dead before can make noise again. The leader also tied his hair into the same hairstyle as others, which means that he accepted them. She was really satisfied.
Today, the newcomers also tied their hair with the help of the "old man". The men tied their hair into a bun on the top of their heads, and the women all had ponytails. They were easy to distinguish and were different from other tribes at a glance. They looked much more energetic.
After finishing all these, Luo Chong began to make equipment for himself. He picked out a better one from a dozen sticks, took out the spear head made from the leg bone of a terror bird and inserted it into one end of the stick, tied it tightly with a snake skin rope, and finally glued the seam with fish bladder glue, and a primitive bone spear appeared.
There are a lot of fish bladders, which are actually the fish bladders in the belly of fish. So many fish are killed every day that they can't be used up.
In addition, there is a short knife made from the beak of a terror bird. The beak is also very strong, with a half-meter long beak. There are still a lot left for making a dagger. The rest were taken away by the cripple. When firing pottery in the afternoon, the cripple was always grinding his short knife.
There are only these two pieces of equipment. At the beginning, there is no dog and no equipment. Everything has to be done by yourself. Luo Chong feels that he may be the poorest time traveler in history, and he traveled to an era of poverty.
The next morning, he habitually performed a set of Luo Junti boxing. After the tribesmen got up, Luo Chong arranged a new task.
The lame man continued to make pottery. This work had to be continued. He had to make sure that everyone had a bowl first.
The adult women were divided into two teams, one to collect wild fruits, and the other to fish, and the remaining children stayed to help.
Luo Chong personally led the team to hunt, and there were a lot of people. All members of the hunting team, without the elders this time, should stay to look after the house at such an old age.
One-ear, Beast Fang, Great Power, Feather, Stone, Six Fingers, plus Luo Chong, and the two little friends who usually liked to follow Luo Chong, Big Mouth and Monkey, and the two brothers Da Mao and Er Mao who were just bought yesterday.
A group of 11 people strode into the jungle facing the rising sun.
