Shicun is located in the vast mountains, surrounded by peaks and ravines, and the vast mountains are majestic.
In the early morning, the morning glow is brilliant, falling like broken gold, bathing people in warmth.
A group of children, ranging in age from four or five to teenagers, numbering dozens, were humming and exercising in front of the morning glow in the open space in front of the village. Their young faces were full of seriousness.
The older children are very lively, and the younger ones are also making graceful gestures.
A middle-aged man with a body as strong as a tiger and leopard, wearing animal skin clothing, with bronze skin and loose black hair, glanced at each child with piercing eyes and was giving them serious instructions.
"The sun rises, all things begin, and the energy of life is at its strongest. Although we cannot eat the rosy clouds and eat the qi as in the legend, exercising in the morning glow has great benefits and can replenish the body's vitality. The day's plan starts in the morning, so get up early every day.
Work harder, strengthen your muscles and bones, activate your blood and refine your muscles, and you will be able to survive in this vast mountain range in the future." The middle-aged man standing in front, instructing a group of children, had a serious look on his face, and warned him seriously, and then shouted: "You understand.
?"
"Understood!" A group of children responded loudly and angrily.
There are many prehistoric creatures in the mountains. From time to time, giant wings that cover the sky cross over and cast large shadows on the ground. There are also desolate beasts standing on the peaks, swallowing the moon and roaring, and not to mention all kinds of poisonous insects, which is extremely terrifying.
"I understand." A little guy who was obviously distracted and half a beat too late shouted in a sweet voice.
This is a very young child, only one or two years old. He has just learned to walk for a few months and is also exercising. Obviously, he got here by himself and mixed in with the older children. He is obviously not supposed to be there yet.
appear in this team.
"Hmph haha!" the little guy said in his mouth, waving his tender little arms vigorously, imitating the movements of the older children, but he was too young, his movements were crooked, his steps were swaying, and his mouth was swaying.
The remaining white milk stains make people laugh.
A group of older children looked at him and winked, which made the originally serious atmosphere of the morning exercise more relaxed.
The little one is very white, tender and pretty, with big black eyes. She looks like a white porcelain doll. She is very cute, with childish movements, babbling in her mouth, and a very naive attitude. This makes another person in the field sit cross-legged on huge rocks.
Some of the old people who were vomiting the essence of heaven also smiled.
Even the tall and burly adult men, with naked upper bodies and shiny and bulging tendons, all looked over with smiles. They were the strongest people in the village and the most important force in hunting and protecting the village.
They were all exercising their bodies. Some were holding white bone sticks polished from the bones of unknown giant beasts, while others were holding broad swords made of black metal, and they were dancing with all their strength, making the wind sound like thunder.
The living environment is extremely harsh, with many ferocious beasts and poisonous insects. In order to eat and survive, many men died prematurely in the wilderness before they were minors. If they want to survive, they can only strengthen themselves. If you work hard in the morning, both adults and adults
Or the elderly and children, this is a habit that everyone has developed since childhood.
"Relax your mind!" the middle-aged man who was responsible for supervising and guiding the children to practice shouted loudly. A group of children quickly became serious and continued to exercise in the soft and brilliant morning glow.
"Huh... ah, I'm tired." The little one let out a deep breath and sat down on the ground, watching the older children exercising. But after only a moment, he was distracted and stood up.
He swayed and rushed towards a colorful sparrow that was jumping around not far away. As a result, he stumbled and fell several times, but he didn't cry. He got up and started to chase after him.
"Okay, let's call it a day!"
With a loud shout, all the children cheered, rubbed their sore hands and feet, and then dispersed in a rush, rushing to their homes to prepare for breakfast.
The old people all laughed and stood up from the boulder. The adults who were as strong as tigers laughed and cursed, scolded their children, and walked quickly towards their homes carrying bone clubs and broad swords.
Stone Village is not very big. There are more than 300 men, women, old and young in total. The houses are all made of huge stones, simple and natural.
There is a huge lightning-strike log at the head of the village, more than ten meters in diameter. At this time, the only wicker on the main trunk has lost its glow in the morning glow and has become ordinary.
"Oh, there is actually dragon meat, give me a piece!"
These children are very lively and active, and they are not very honest even when eating. Many of them came out of their homes holding pottery bowls and gathered together.
The surrounding area of Stone Village is rich in vegetation and ferocious beasts, but guarding the mountains, the food for the villagers is relatively not rich, just some semolina cakes, wild fruits and a small amount of meat in the children's bowls.
In fact, insufficient food has always been a serious problem for Shicun. The mountains are very dangerous, and those strange beasts and birds are too powerful and terrifying, and someone may lose their life every time they go hunting.
If given a choice, the villagers would not want to go into the mountains because going into the mountains means there may be bloodshed and sacrifice.
Food is very precious to them and cannot be wasted. Every child understands this from an early age. Hunger, food, hunting, life, and blood are all connected.
At the head of the village is the courtyard of the old patriarch Shi Yunfeng, which is made of huge rocks and is next to a huge charred willow tree. In front of the stove in the courtyard, white juice is boiling in a clay pot, and the fragrance of milk is fragrant. He is boiling animal milk, and from time to time
Add some herbs, etc., and stir slowly with a wooden spoon.
After a while, the old man shouted: "Little one, come here and eat."
The little one lost his parents when he was half a year old and grew up eating the milk of all kinds of animals. Now he is one year and a few months old. If he were an ordinary child, he should have been weaned long ago, but he still eats very sweet food and refuses to wean.
It falls and is often teased by older children.
"Hey, hey... I can't run anymore." He had been chasing the five-colored bird perseveringly, and he was already out of breath, and now he sat down on the ground.
"The little one is eating milk!" a group of older children cheered.
"You little monkeys are not all from his age." The old patriarch laughed and cursed.
"We are not still breastfeeding when we are one and a half years old, hehe."
Facing the teasing of the older children, the little one smiled naively, her big black eyes narrowed into a crescent shape, and she didn't care. She sat in front of the clay pot and scooped out the milk with a wooden spoon. The food was delicious.
After breakfast, several elderly people in the village came to the courtyard of the patriarch Shi Yunfeng. Although their beard and hair had turned white, they were still very energetic.
"Something hasn't been right lately. There are always big guys passing by late at night. The noise is really too loud. Something must have happened deep in the mountains."
"Well, I was woken up several times last night, and my skin and bones were cold. There must be some wild beast or big insect passing by here."
Several old people spoke one after another. They either frowned or thought deeply, discussing some recent danger signs and feeling that something unusual had happened.
"I think something extraordinary may have happened in the depths of the wilderness, which attracted the attention of some ancient relics in the surrounding areas, and they rushed there." The old patriarch Shi Yunfeng said after thinking.
"Could there be a mountain treasure?" An old man's eyes suddenly widened, his beard and hair were spread out, showing a shocked look.
The others also showed strange expressions, their eyes were fiery, but they quickly extinguished the flames in their eyes. That kind of thing was not something they could get. It was far away in the deepest part of the mountain range, and no one could get in.
For so many years, no one has been able to make it in and out alive. Various tyrannical species are infested in the mountains. Even if everyone in Stone Village rushes in, not even a wave will rise.
"Chief, we haven't been in the mountains for some days." At this moment, a majestic adult man walked into the courtyard. He was the leader of the hunting team and would also be the next leader of Shicun.
"It's been a little rough lately." Shi Yunfeng, the old patriarch, frowned.
"But there is really not much food." Shi Linhu said. He was extremely tall, more than two meters tall, and carried a broad sword weighing more than three hundred kilograms on his back. He was as strong as a man-bear, with bronze muscles all over his body.
Like snakes and pythons swimming.
"The babies need to grow up and not go hungry. We have to think of some ways." An old man said.
"Although it's not peaceful at night, there's nothing unusual during the day. I'll take some people out, so be careful and it should be fine." Shi Linhu said.
Finally, dozens of young and middle-aged men gathered at the head of the village, and were led by the patriarch Shi Yunfeng to the nearby lightning strike tree and prayed seriously to the old willow tree.
"Sacrifice spirit, please bless the tribe and let the children catch fat prey and return safely. We will worship and provide for you from generation to generation with a pious heart."
