Chapter 65: The Second Trader (Please Collect and Recommend)
Soon, Rat Da returned with the hunting team, and entered the tent with a large bunch of things in his hand.
"Witch, look, it turns out that what the Han tribe said is true."
Rat Da frowned, and with an ugly expression, he put a large necklace in front of the Rat Witch. The Rat Witch took it and looked at it carefully for a while, and said with a somewhat ugly face: "This is a necklace made of human bones. Where did you find it?"
"It's in the dark forest north of our tribe. We first found the residence of the Tree Tribe, but it was burned down. Then we searched a distance to the east and found many frozen corpses in the forest. They had terrible patterns painted on their faces, and they were all adult men. These human bone necklaces were found from those corpses."
Rat Da heard the question from the Rat Witch and hurriedly told him everything about this outing.
The Rat Witch nodded repeatedly: "It's right, it's all right. It seems that what they said is true. We are really in danger."
For a moment, the Rat Witch and Rat Da were silent, not knowing what to do.
After a while, the Rat Wizard asked Shu Da: "If those cannibals really come to attack us, do you think we can hold on? I have asked the tribesmen to build a wall these two days."
Shu Da looked at the fence outside the tent and was obviously not confident. Not to mention the cannibal army, it is estimated that a child can easily climb over the wall.
The Rat Wizard saw Shu Da's expression and asked desperately: "What if all the walls are replaced with those chevaux de frise?"
"Then we can also climb over."
"Then we can also make that kind of brick wall. We can't make blue bricks, but we can always make earth bricks, and we have a lot of people." The Rat Wizard still argued unwillingly.
"We don't have that kind of golden shovel, and digging the soil is very slow. They use 100 people, and we may not be able to build a circle of walls with 1,000 people. In addition, if all people are working on the walls, what will we eat? Moreover,
even if we use earth bricks to build the walls, those cannibals also have those big monsters with long noses, which will collapse when they hit them." Shu Da analyzed and said.
The Rat Wizard almost spat out a mouthful of blood. "Kid, you are so good at throwing cold water on others. Do your family members know about this?"
The Rat Wizard nodded helplessly. In fact, he knew all this in his heart and knew that what Rat said was the truth. In the end, he could only say helplessly, "We should try to make more barricades and arrange more people to stand guard.
Also, let the women and children make more weapons, even if it's just picking up more stones. If there really comes a day when we can't win, we'll talk about it then. It would be better if we had more people."
Rat nodded and was about to get up and go out to arrange the work, but suddenly he seemed to think of something and turned back to the Rat Wizard and said, "Witch, I have a bold idea. We can actually have more people."
The Rat Wizard was delighted when he heard this, "Oh? Tell me quickly, what's your idea?"
"Do you remember the Li tribe to the south of our tribe? That's the tribe guarding the chestnut forest. They must also need these pottery. What if we use these pottery to exchange people with them?
The Han tribe trades with us, using a pottery pot for two underage boys, or an adult woman, and a pottery bowl for an underage boy, then we will double it for him.
We use the pottery pot to exchange two women or four boys from the Li tribe, and then use these people to trade with the Han tribe. We will keep the extra people for ourselves, so that we will have more and more people and more pottery." Rat Da said with suppressed excitement.
After hearing this, Rat Wu's eyes lit up. Oh? So the transaction can be done this way? You are really a talent.
Even Luo Chong, who was far away on the west bank of the river, didn't expect that the first middleman in primitive society who wanted to be a middleman and trade the difference was born like this. It seems that he was the one who promoted it. This is fucking amazing.
"Well, this is a good idea. Let's use it. Take your people to the Li tribe immediately and trade the pottery pots we exchanged with them. Take five of them first. We have to hurry up. There is only more than a month left in winter. If it's any later, the ice on the river will melt, and then we won't be able to go to the Han tribe." The Rat Wizard quickly explained.
"Okay, I'll go right away." Shu Da agreed and hurried out to make arrangements.
On the Han tribe side, Luo Chong was thinking about how to kill the wolves. The wolves have been hiding in the forest and have always been a hidden danger.
In the last battle, inside the wall, the Han tribe had a high wall to defend, and the wolves could not jump in. Even if the wall collapsed, Luo Chong had a spear formation and could rely on the favorable terrain for defense.
No matter what kind of war, the defending party can always take advantage. The last battle can prove this. Although the wolves are numerous, they still failed to break through the spear formation of the Han tribe. The wolves also know that they are not opponents, so they have been hiding now. Maybe they are planning something bad.
But it is not a good thing for the two sides to keep confronting each other. The salt in stock is basically used to pickle meat, leaving only 200 people for one month. But what should we do after this winter? Sooner or later, we will have to go to the cave in the Xieding tribe to take a look, and then we will inevitably encounter the wolves.
Luo Chong thought about it and decided that it was impossible to go out and fight. It would be useless if he brought too few people. However, he could only take out 50 adults at most. However, when they went to the forest to fight a battle, 50 people would only be eaten by hundreds of gray wolves.
"Piapia told you not to be obedient, be honest and don't move around."
Next to the barn, Lame and Dali were putting a nose ring on the bison. After a copper bar bent into a ring passed through the nose of the bison, the two ends of the copper bar were twisted together, and finally the excess part was twisted into a small circle on both sides. The shape was like the tight hoop of Zhizunbao.
The bison was a little dishonest because of the pain, so Xiao Qubing took a cane and whipped the bison's butt from behind, which made Luo Chong's eyes light up.
"Yes, use that, the family rules, hahaha, I'm really talented."
Luo Chong laughed and ran back to the cave. Huishan and Rourou, who were eating grass nearby, felt inexplicably that their master had gone crazy again.
"Elder, elder, do you still have the thorn vines that we use as family rules? I need a lot." Luo Chong asked the elder as soon as he entered the cave.
"Oh, we have that thing. There are quite a few growing just above the entrance of our cave." Although the elder didn't know what Luo Chong wanted that thing for, he still answered honestly.
"Okay, I know."
After Luo Chong finished speaking, he went outside to collect thorn vines. These vines are very hard, about the thickness of a finger, and covered with sharp thorns, which are just right for making deadly traps.
First, use an axe to cut it into sections according to the length of the thumb, then soak it in cold water to freeze it, wait for a layer of ice to freeze on it to cover all the thorns inside, and finally apply a thick layer of lard on the outside.
As long as this thing is swallowed by the wolves, the ice shell on it will melt in the stomach. Even if the thorny vines cannot pierce the stomach, they can still tear the intestines. At least internal bleeding is certain. At that time, it will be dead. And you can pick up a complete wolf skin for free. Hia hia hia hia hia hia
