The night has become darker, the rain is still falling outside, but the firelight is still so bright inside the old tribe's cave.
It's not that the people of the old tribe are cold, but that the people of the old tribe want to use this method to make the outside of the cave a little brighter. For the leader who has been outside and has not come back and has gone to an unknown place, take a photo.
Light the way.
In the cave of the old tribe, some people couldn't hold on and fell asleep, and some people didn't sleep, but they also sat there and took a nap...
"Plop~"
"Wow~"
I don't know how long it took, but suddenly there were some sounds outside the cave.
Some old tribesmen who were taking a nap were awakened.
After a slight hesitation, he came to his senses, quickly got up and went to the entrance of the cave, and looked out through the specially set aside gap.
I saw an extra thing coming out of that puddle.
It was hard to see clearly in the darkness, but from the outline, it looked like a person.
The people of the old tribe were alarmed and hurriedly removed the stones blocking the entrance of the cave.
Go outside.
"@#¥T%^!"
For a moment, shouts rang out, and the old tribe that had fallen silent suddenly became lively.
Some people from the old tribe scrambled to lift the man who fell in front of the cave and carried him into the cave...
After a lot of busy work, the cave of the old tribe became a lot quieter.
The entrance to their cave was blocked again with stones, and the hole that had been specially set aside before was also blocked.
Near the fire, someone had made a bed with hay and other things, and a person was lying on it.
This person was none other than the old tribal leader who had been sought out and waited for a long time by the people of the old tribe.
The old tribal leader at this time has undergone many changes compared with the previous time.
The wet animal skin on his body was gone. It was stripped off by the people of the old tribe and wrapped in a new, dry animal skin.
The wet hair was also wiped dry.
There were some scars on his face, but the bleeding was no longer present.
The face with new scars looked a little pale, and the lips were still blue.
Even though he was wrapped in dry fur and placed not far from the fire, his body was still shaking unconsciously and he had fallen into a coma.
Around him, there were many people from the old tribe, looking nervously and worriedly at the unconscious old tribe leader.
After a while, someone came over with a large bowl of steaming soup.
The soup exudes the aroma of meat. It is a broth specially cooked by the people of the old tribe for their leader.
One is to satisfy hunger, and the other is to expel the cold from the old tribe leader's body and help him warm up as quickly as possible.
With the cooperation of several people, the unconscious old tribal leader was helped up. The person holding the bowl brought the edge of the bowl containing the broth to the old tribal leader's mouth.
I don't know if the old tribe leader was too hungry or if he was not completely unconscious. In this state, he was able to slowly open his mouth and drink soup by himself.
He drank the large bowl of broth slowly.
After drinking a bowl of broth, the paleness on the old tribal leader's face disappeared a lot, and his complexion began to gradually become rosy.
Seeing this change, the people of the old tribe who gathered around were very happy.
However, this joy did not last long.
Because the old tribal leader's complexion became more and more rosy.
Someone reached out to touch it and felt it was a little hot.
Such a discovery made many people in the old tribe suddenly panic.
Getting sick is very scary for them.
Even the most common fever and cold can still make them panic.
Because this kind of problem can also kill people.
In fact, there are not a few people who died because of these...
“@##¥@#……”
A person in the tribe suddenly remembered something at this moment, and his eyes lit up involuntarily.
Then he said loudly to the people in the tribe.
After finishing speaking, he stood up, found a clay pot, added some water into it, and began to put it on the fire to boil the water.
After it was boiled, he put the water into a bowl, let it cool for a while, then put it to the lips of the old tribe leader and fed it to the old tribe leader.
The leader of the old tribe was awake now, and he was indeed a little thirsty. After taking a sip, he felt that the water was too hot and asked the tribesmen to bring him cold water to drink.
I feel like drinking cold water is refreshing.
The man disagreed and instead spoke to the leader of the old tribe.
What he meant was very simple. Once, I heard a person who was trading with an older primitive woman say that drinking more hot water can cure this disease to a certain extent.
This is some news that that person got from the mysterious Qingque tribe.
Hearing this man talk about the Qingque tribe, the leader of the old tribe felt angry.
Because if it weren't for the Qingque Tribe, the older female primitives wouldn't be what they are today.
So he shook his head very hard to express his determination not to drink hot water!
After a while...
"@@#QW"
The old tribe leader, who had already drank three large bowls of hot soup in a row, and his stomach was bulging so high that he felt that water was about to overflow from his throat, spoke again and asked the people of the old tribe to bring him another cup.
He still wants to drink a bowl of hot soup.
Such a scene left many people in the old tribe stunned.
You were the one who said not to drink not long ago, but now you are the one who drinks endlessly.
As expected of a leader, you have said everything.
Facing the intriguing looks of many people in the tribe, the leader of the old tribe did not change his expression.
Of course, with his face flushed with fever, it was impossible for him to change his complexion drastically.
Those who are tired of Qingque belong to the Qingque tribe, but the Qingque tribe is far more developed than their tribe and knows more things than they do. This must be admitted.
Since this person said that the people of the Qingque tribe said that drinking more hot water can cure this disease, then it is basically true, and he naturally wants to drink more.
I feel unhappy and angry, but I also have a love for life, and it is stronger.
To sum it up in one sentence, return your anger to your anger, return your troubles to your troubles, and don’t make fun of your own life.
"Ugh~"
The leader of the old tribe drank the fourth bowl of hot water vigorously for a long time before he finally managed to drink it.
After drinking, without even putting down the bowl, the old tribe leader's stomach jumped suddenly, and his whole body reacted.
A stream of hot water that I just drank came up.
When the people around him were ready to vomit from the leader of their tribe, the leader of the old tribe unexpectedly did not vomit.
But his mouth was tightly closed and his face was bulging high.
Then, under the stunned gaze of everyone in the old tribe, the bulging face of the old tribe leader began to shrink, and after a while, it completely returned to normal...
"Tulu~Tulu~"
In the cave of the old tribe, the old tribe leader, who was feeling better but still a little weak, held a bowl of cooked food in his hand, brought it to his mouth, picked it up with chopsticks and kept feeding it to his mouth, saying
A grunting sound.
These foods are cooked with food exchanged from outside by older primitive women and people.
The leader of the old tribe had already drank three bowls, but he still didn't stop. He drank another bowl until he couldn't hold it down anymore, and then he finally stopped.
Touching his somewhat round belly and smacking his lips, the leader of the old tribe felt that the food tasted really fragrant and tasted really delicious.
The feeling of being full after eating is really good. It is far more comfortable than having nothing in your stomach and being hungry as if there is a fire burning.
How could I be so stupid before?
The leader of the old tribe thought so in his heart.
The rain before and the serious illness that followed caused a big change in his thinking.
For the food brought back by the older primitive women, he no longer refused to eat as before. On the contrary, when it was time to eat every day, he would eat a lot and work hard to get it into his stomach.
He won't shut up until he can't stand it any longer...
Wind and rain will always pass, and illness will also pass.
The rain falling from the sky stopped without knowing when. With the arrival of a new day, the sun rises from the east, bringing full brightness.
The old tribal leader's illness is almost healed.
Here we have to sigh once again at the powerful physique of primitive people.
He had a fever, and he didn't take any other medicine. He just poured bowls of hot water into his stomach. This guy just made it through.
According to the past lifestyle of the tribe, in such weather, the people of the tribe need to go hunting, gathering, and obtaining food.
The leader of the old tribe will definitely be very active in arranging people to do this.
But today, things have become different.
It had been quite a while since they had eaten in the morning, and the leader of the old tribe was still half-lying there, with no intention of arranging anything for the people in the tribe.
“@##RRT……”
After waiting like this for a while, some people from the old tribe couldn't wait any longer and came over to ask the leader of the old tribe why he didn't arrange for people to go hunting.
Facing the questions from the tribe, the leader of the old tribe shook his head and then gave his reason.
The reason he gave seemed a bit funny. It was that the rain had just ended, and the ground outside had not dried yet. It was easy to walk on, but it was easy to slip and fall, and it was easy to be in danger when hunting. So he had to carry it with him honestly in the tribe.
For good.
For such an answer, the people of the old tribe did not believe it very much.
Because in the past, they would go out to hunt and obtain food as soon as the rain stopped.
It is true that it is not easy to walk, but it is far from the level the leader said.
However, after seeing the food brought back by the older primitive women placed in the cave, they still chose to follow the leader's order.
This food is enough for them to eat for a while. If they don't go out to get food today, they won't go out to get food. They won't be hungry anyway.
As a result, everyone in the old tribe had a leisurely day.
Everyone was scattered around the tribe, wandering lazily and looking very comfortable.
It feels so good to not have to work but still have food to eat and not have to worry about going hungry!
Lazy and leisurely time always passes quickly. In a blink of an eye, one day has passed and the next day has arrived.
This day is still a good day. The sun rises from the east and casts a ray of light. The weather is so fine that it is unbelievable.
“@##¥QW……”
Here in the old tribe, someone spoke again and called the leader of the old tribe to arrange for people to get food.
Staying in a cave all the time without food is not a good thing.
The sun came out all day yesterday and has almost dried the ground. It is no longer muddy. You can go out hunting, but you can't do this again.
However, the leader of the old tribe still did not go out hunting.
Because he found a new excuse.
The excuse is that his illness has not healed yet and he still needs more rest, so he cannot go hunting.
Many people in the old tribe don't really believe this.
Because the leader of the old tribe had a good appetite these days. Every time it was time to eat food, he ate the most among the entire tribe.
It's so edible, but many people in the old tribe don't really believe that the disease in their body has not been cured.
But illness is hard to explain, and the leader of the old tribe was seriously ill a few days ago, so the people of the old tribe had no choice but to believe what their leader said with suspicion.
However, they were not idle this time.
The leader of the old tribe did not allocate work to them, so they started working on their own as they had done in the past.
Some people gathered wild fruits and dug wild vegetables, while the rest carried weapons and walked out of the tribe's caves to hunt in the surrounding areas.
With these people leaving, the old tribe suddenly became much quieter.
The leader of the old tribe was sitting on a stone under a tree outside the cave, leaning against the tree trunk, looking at the empty cave, looking very relaxed.
His previous experience of not being able to catch prey, and almost killing himself, changed his temperament drastically.
What this deep sense of frustration brings is a deeper sense of frustration, which is simply decadence or self-abasement.
The old tribe leader's current thinking is that no matter how hard he tries to obtain food, he is far inferior to the older female primitives, so he might as well stop getting it.
Rather than trying desperately to get it and then bringing yourself a deep sense of frustration, it would be better to just stay in the tribe and not go out.
There is no need to work so hard and hard, and there is no need to feel uncomfortable looking at the little harvest.
Another point is that if you stay in the tribe and don't go out, you can't stop the wind and rain, so you don't have to worry about getting sick from it...
