After hearing this, Yao Xiaoqing began to reflect. He still took it for granted, thinking that the area near the river was a safe area. But he forgot that this was also an old forest with few human traces.
If he hadn't met Yan Yu and the others, if he had encountered a ferocious beast, with his little effort, he could have escaped alone, but A Chong Bo and Yu Zi would have become food for the ferocious beasts.
"Uncle Dashi, I was wrong!" Yao Xiaoqing sincerely admitted his mistake.
Dashi looked at her and smiled gently, "You don't know this until the leader comes back. Let him talk to you."
"Yeah! When the seeds are sown, I will hunt with you." Yao Xiaoqing decided to learn some hunting experience.
Dashi smiled cheerfully and said: "Okay, Uncle Dashi will take you with him."
"Uncle Dashi, the Great Witch Tribe has also made bows and arrows. I think their bows and arrows are also very powerful. When we go back, we have to make something to defend against wooden arrows, so that we can have an advantage against the enemy."
What he just saw flashed through Dashi's mind, "Oh! Turns out I was right, they were holding bows and arrows." The Great Witch Tribe and the Giant Bear Tribe have bows and arrows, and other tribes will soon have them too.
Yao Xiaoqing nodded, "Yes, I guess the Shenmu tribe may have also made it. Is the day for us to fight with them coming soon?"
"The winter this time is so long that it confuses people." Dashi frowned and thought for a while, "It should take some time."
Yao Xiaoqing thought about the equipment, shields, and armor that were used to defend against arrows. I went to the museum before and saw a kind of rattan shield and helmet, which can even defend against iron arrows. It should be used to defend against wooden arrows.
.
Things like rattan are easy to come by. Let's go back and have someone make them up to try.

Yan Yu led Qing Huo and others out of the bamboo forest. Qing Huo took a few steps to catch up with him, "Yan Yu, do you want to be paired with the Qingsha from the Yaoshan tribe?"
Yan Yu stopped and looked at him coldly, "Qing Huo, this is not what you should ask."
Qinghuo glanced at him, lowered his head and said, "But I heard from the leader that he will choose a woman from the Wuxian tribe and the Giant Bear tribe to pair with you and Kun. The Yaoshan tribe is too small, and the leader will not agree to it."
Yan Yu looked at Qing Huo with an even colder expression, "Who told you?"
Qinghuo murmured, "I happened to hear the great witch and the leader discussing this matter."
No wonder Kun and You Lu were fighting fiercely. It seems that he has fallen in love with the women of the Wuxian tribe. The Giant Bear tribe has occupied Si Mountain, doesn't he want to occupy Shishan and Qiu Mountain? Father wants to form an alliance with both sides, can he get benefits?
?
Qing Huo saw that he was sullen and silent, and looked up at him, "Yan Yu, I didn't mean it, I just happened to hear it."
Seeing the cautious look on his friend who he had played with since childhood, Yan Yu shook his head, "I didn't say you eavesdropped on purpose. Let's go! Let's go back to the tribe first."
Seeing that he didn't blame him, Qing Huo breathed a sigh of relief, "Yan Yu, I heard from the great witch and the leader that the daughter of the leader of the Giant Bear Tribe is so beautiful that people can't take their eyes off it. I think she will be a perfect match for you."
Yan Yu raised his eyebrows and looked at him, "You think I didn't punish you because you feel uncomfortable?"
"No, no, no," Qinghuo covered her mouth and ran out with a "swish".
It was getting dark gradually, and several people went to a cave where they had lived before. Qing Huo was busy making fire, and sheep, trees, and peaches went out to collect firewood and hunt.
Yan Yu lay on the haystack, thinking about Yao Xiaoqing's faint expression, and closed his eyes in frustration.
Qing Huo lit the fire and looked at Yan Yu lying on the haystack. Knowing that he was unhappy, he sat aside honestly and did not dare to provoke him.
After a while, Sheep and Shu returned to the cave carrying two hares, and several people were busy peeling and roasting them. Sheep winked at Qing Huo, "What's wrong with Yan Yu?"
"How do I know?" Qinghuo said angrily.
Yang leaned close to Qing Huo's ear and said, "I think Yan Yu has fallen in love with that Qing Sha."
Qing Huo glanced at him and said, "You kid, keep your mouth shut. You will be punished for talking nonsense."
Yang rolled her eyes at him, "I won't tell anyone else!"
Several people skewered the rabbit meat on wooden sticks and grilled it on the fire. After a while, a burst of barbecue smell came out.
"I'll take a pee and come back." The sheep walked out of the cave.
Qing Huo took out a small bamboo tube, sprinkled some salt on the rabbit meat, and muttered: "The salt from the Wuxian tribe is getting more and more unpalatable, a little bitter."
Shu squinted his little eyes and looked at Qing Huo, "Yes! I heard that they have raised the price again in the autumn market. Those people are talking about it, saying that it is more cost-effective to eat animal blood instead of salt in the future."
Qing Huo nodded, tore off a rabbit leg and handed it to Yan Yu, then went back and sat on the ground, "I will do the same thing, let the salt from the Wuxian tribe get moldy there."
Yan Yu suddenly thought that in summer and autumn, the Yaoshan tribe did not exchange salt with the Wuxian tribe, so where did the salt in their food come from?
"Who's in the woods?" Suddenly a sheep's cry came from outside the cave.
Yan Yu and Qing Huo all ran to the entrance of the cave and saw a dozen men walking out of the forest with weapons in their hands.
Qinghuo asked: "Who are you? Who asked you to come?"
One of the tall, deep-eyed men looked at Yan Yu with venomous eyes, "Someone gave me food and salt, and asked me to take your head."
"Get weapons!" Yan Yu raised his bow and arrow and shot at a person. He hit the person between the eyebrows and the person fell down.
A person next to him hurriedly stepped forward to support him, "Amu, what's wrong with you?"
The man raised his stone spear and shouted: "Brothers, charge!"
Yan Yu shot an arrow, but was knocked down by the man with a stone spear. Others rushed up in a swarm. The Qing Huo ones raised their bows and shot, knocking down several of them in succession.
The remaining people had already arrived at the entrance of the cave. Yan Yu narrowed his eyes slightly, pulled out the bone knife and rushed over. He stabbed one person in the chest with the knife. The tall man slashed at Yan Yu with a knife. Yan Yu turned around and stabbed his wrist with a backhand knife, and his back was wounded.
Another person gave him a chop.
Qing Huo stepped forward and used a bow string to tie the man who attacked Yan Yu, pulled hard, and stabbed his vest with a knife.
The tall man didn't expect that Yan Yu would knock down his weapon as soon as they met him. He hurriedly retreated. Yan Yu stepped forward and hit the tall man on the neck with an elbow, then cut his throat with a knife.
Several people stepped forward and slashed the man fighting with the sheep to death. They looked at the man fighting Qinghuo coldly, "Catch him alive and ask him who paid them to come?"
"Yes." The sheep, trees, and peaches surrounded the man. Several people captured the man alive and took him into the cave.
Yan Yu was sitting by the fire, exuding a cold and stern aura. He kicked the man who was pretending to be dead and said, "Who bribed you?" His eyes were cold and sinister.
The man looked at him and shrank back, "I don't know, you killed me on the head!"
Yan Yu looked at him sinisterly, "I told you, I'll give you a good time. If you don't tell me, I'll tie you up in the forest and smear you with some honey. You choose one."
