Chapter 9 Autumn is a season for storing food.

"%#"

Wu pointed at himself and then said to Han Cheng.

Although Han Cheng could not speak, Wu could see from his eyes that Han Cheng was indeed studying what he taught seriously.

This made the elderly wizard very happy.

It was precisely because of this that he took such trouble to teach Han Cheng.

"%#"

He pointed at himself and said it again.

"%#"

Han Cheng blinked, could this mean 'I'?

The wizard, who was a good teacher, taught Han Cheng for a while, then said no more, then picked up his pen made of stone and carved on the stone tablet what he had not yet finished recording.

About an hour later, someone who had gone out came back.

The leader was Junior Brother Sha, who was leading two men and five women. Each of them was holding or carrying animal skin packages, and the packages were full of large and small fruits.

They poured the fruits where they originally put them, and then went out again.

Thinking of the colorful scenes he saw on the way back to the cave the day before yesterday, Han Cheng understood what they were doing now.

Autumn is here, which is the harvest season, and it is also a season that requires efforts to store food.

From what he had seen in the past two days, Han Cheng had learned that this unknown tribe was still in the hunting and gathering stage, and was still far away from slash-and-burn farming.

In this case, collecting wild fruits has become their most important storage method.

After all, the fruit has a long shelf life and is durable in storage.

As for meat, it is delicious to eat, but when there is no salt, the storage time is really...

This is also the reason why after hunting enough meat for the tribe to eat for two days yesterday, all the labor force in the tribe went out to pick wild fruits today.

It can be seen that there should be a lot of fruits outside. Basically every hour, about half of the people come back with fruits in their hands...

The days passed peacefully like water. Han Cheng's life was to stand here as a sculpture, watching the activities of everyone in the tribe, and eating the special meat soup made by the witch twice a day.

Most of the time it's mash roast and liver that tends to get mushy.

However, one time it was a sheep kidney.

After eating this lamb kidney, Han Cheng was very sad.

It's not that the kidneys don't taste good, it's that after eating a whole wild lamb kidney, he still doesn't feel anything at all...

Damn, I am really useless this time, the source of happiness is gone...

Of course, after putting this worry aside, Han Cheng is quite satisfied with his current life.

After eating every day, learn some of their language from the witches, and spend the rest of the time in a daze.

The work of storing food is still going on, and the women of the tribe are the main ones who pick the fruits.

If enough prey is caught to meet the needs of the tribe for two days or more, the senior brother will take the men to join in the process of picking fruits.

With their hard work, more and more fruits were stored in the cave, and a huge pile had been piled up where the fruits were originally stored.

Looking at the growing pile of fruits, everyone including Han Cheng felt at ease.

Have food in your hands and don’t panic in your heart. This is always a wise saying until the problem of hunger and fullness is not solved.

Han Cheng's body was itchy. The itching started a few days ago, but it was not as severe as today.

He wanted to be scratched, but the result was of course devastating. He couldn't move or speak, and could only endure the heart-scratching and liver-scratching torture without saying a word.

But when he discovered that he could control one hand to move slightly, this itch was immediately forgotten in his ecstasy.

He was even secretly encouraging himself to make the itch become more intense.

Yesterday, Senior Brother led the hunting team and returned with a full load again. The prey they caught was enough to feed the entire tribe for three days!

So after breakfast today, he also took the hunting members and the women of the tribe to pick.

As for Han Cheng, he was ecstatically trying to control various parts of his body to see where he could move.

After working hard for a long time, a pain and a tearing feeling came from Han Cheng's face. After this feeling, Han Cheng was surprised to find that his mouth could be opened wider.

, can also be closed!

After being convinced that he would not become a sculptor in the future, Han Cheng suppressed the urge to open his mouth wide for complete relief.

According to past experience, he is currently injured. If he forcibly opens his mouth and tears the burnt shell on his face, scars will definitely appear on his face.

He doesn't really care about his appearance, but he doesn't want to leave any scars on it. After all, it's something he uses to meet people.

His mouth could open and close a little, but he still couldn't make a sound. Han Cheng always felt like something was stuck in his throat.

When he felt the changes in his body with joy and curiosity, the man who went out to pick fruits came back.

They have come back twice today, this scene is not unusual.

But when he found out that everyone had returned, Han Chengcheng was a little confused.

It's still early now, just after noon at most. Logically speaking, not all the people who went out to pick will come back at this time.

The situation is somewhat complicated.

Not only because the senior brothers and the others all came back early, but also because the people who came back did not carry big and small bags of fruit as before.

Not only that, six people, including senior brother, second senior brother, and junior brother Sha, suffered varying degrees of injuries.

Especially the second senior brother who has a big belly. There are several bruises on his belly.

Fortunately, there were quite a few people who went out, and they all came back in good order, and there was no attrition.

The atmosphere of the entire team seemed very low and depressing. The little primitive people who had originally cheered and ran out to greet them all became quiet after seeing this scene and feeling the atmosphere, and looked at them in confusion.

Parents and brothers.

The shaman who also noticed something strange walked out from the depths of the cave and asked questions loudly and with gestures.

The senior brother lowered his head in shame and remained silent for a while.

The witch was indeed a wise man. When he saw this, he didn't ask any more questions. He then asked everyone to go back to the cave and asked people to move several thick stone slabs at the entrance of the cave to prepare to seal the entrance.

The limping senior brother shook his head and pointed outside the cave to stop the witch's order, indicating that it was not necessary and the matter had not reached this point yet.

Wu Ye agreed. He did not speak any more, but began to examine the injured people.
