The people of the Qingque tribe don't have a systematic language, so naturally there won't be many exciting stories.
Otherwise, the short stories such as "Tadpole Looking for Mom", "Monkey Fishing for the Moon", "Little Monkey Descending the Mountain" and other stories that Han Cheng used to tell people in the tribe to read would have caused such a big sensation.
Such a simple story can make people in the tribe obsessed with it, let alone "The Cowherd and the Weaver Girl" which is so much higher than it!
Everyone listened with rapt attention, all their thoughts drifting along with Han Cheng's description, and they were completely integrated into the story.
"Bang, bang, bang!"
The story tells that the Weaver Girl was forcibly taken away by the evil tribe's shaman, and after the couple's lives were separated, the people of the Qingque tribe who gathered around to listen to the story became very angry.
Some beat their chests loudly, some gasped heavily... Shang's reaction was even more intense. He turned around and took the stone spear in his hand, quickly climbed up the courtyard wall, pointed the spear at the sky, and pointed at the ray of light in the sky.
The brilliant galaxy roared angrily, wanting to stab the evil shaman of the evil tribe to death with a spear!
Han Cheng was stunned for a moment when he saw the fierce reaction from everyone.
He had no idea that his mind was wandering while just looking at the starry sky, and because of Shitou's questioning, he slightly changed the story that would be familiar to later generations and told it, which would actually make these people so angry.
This is much more fascinating than reading novels in my later life.
Seeing more people climbing up the courtyard wall, Li Yuanba cursed the sky like a hammer, and some even took rocks and threw them at the night sky. Han Cheng couldn't help but shrink his head.
Firstly, I was worried that I would be hit on the head by the rocks thrown by these guys randomly. Secondly, I was worried that God, who did not want to take the blame, would be furious after being insulted for no reason.
The storyteller was also taken away.
Taking a peek at the night sky where the stars were still shining brightly, he didn't see any haze. Han Cheng secretly admired God's broad mind and hurriedly asked people to call back these angry guys.
During the venting, everyone's anger was still difficult to calm down. It was not until Han Cheng started telling stories again that they calmed down.
It wasn't until Han Cheng finished speaking and heard that the evil tribe's shaman allowed the two to meet once a year that the anger in his heart subsided a lot.
Of course, Han Cheng would not tell them about the idea of a year in the sky, a day on earth, and even if he did, in an era when the concept of "year" did not even exist, it would be difficult for them to distinguish the relationship for a while.
Everyone looked up at the dazzling galaxy. Following Han Cheng's guidance, they identified the two stars Cowherd and Weaver Girl who had just been named by him among the stars. Their thoughts were flying wildly.
"Son of God, what is a cow?"
Shitou, who was the most fluent in Mandarin, asked.
Han Cheng thought for a while and began to tell Shitou what a cow was and its role.
Everyone who was originally looking up at the galaxy and reminiscing about that extremely magical and touching story was gradually attracted by the new story told by the Son of God.
There is a very large creature called a cow that eats grass like a deer.
Cows can be used for eating, and they can also be used to plow the ground. It is many, many times faster than humans using a bone shovel to plow the ground...
The eyes of the Qingque tribe members, who already knew very well about plowing the land and understood the hard work involved, were like stars in the night sky.
They couldn't help but wonder, how wonderful it would be if their tribe also had cattle and could use them to plow the land?
Shitou's eyes were also bright, but he was different from the eldest brother and others who wanted to find cattle to plow the land.
He wanted to put cowhide on his body and fly into the sky like the Cowherd.
This child often likes to look at the sky at night and is obsessed with the brilliant and distant stars. He has fantasized about flying into the night sky more than once.
He was very sorry that he did not have wings like a bird. Tonight, he suddenly heard the magical story "The Cowherd and the Weaver Girl" from the mouth of the wisest Son of God, and he immediately became excited.
"Son of God, let's go find the cow!"
Shitou looked at Han Cheng, his eyes bright and full of infinite joy.
Senior Brother and others also looked at Han Cheng expectantly.
Compared with the two stars Cowherd and Weaver Girl, which are far up in the sky and can only be seen but cannot be touched, and that touching story, they are more concerned about things related to their own immediate interests.
From the reactions of the eldest brother and others, it can be seen that they have not seen cows, the things used by several nearby tribes to trade and what they wear, and they have never seen the shadow of cows. It is not possible to think that there are cows nearby.
It will be too big.
Oxen are good at plowing the land. Before four-wheeled tractors or two-wheeled tramps were manufactured, they were always the main force in plowing the land. They had more endurance than horses and donkeys, and were more tolerant of hardships.
Han Cheng wanted to take the path of farming, so cattle naturally became an important part of it, and of course he was looking for them.
Han Cheng nodded vigorously: "Yes, looking for a cow!"
Everyone who looked at him expectantly couldn't help but smile when they saw this.
After listening to the story about "The Cowherd and the Weaver Girl" told by Shenzi and the various functions of the cow, they could not wait to get this magical animal into the Qingque tribe, just like the group of deer and rabbits
Same.
"We can't do it now. We can't go looking for cows until we become stronger."
When everyone heard this, their hearts couldn't help but feel joyful.
Many people looked at the high walls and then at the fruits hanging under the eaves. At this time, they could only see the dark shadows of flesh. They were a little confused when they recalled the many fruits piled up in the cave.
Aren't they strong enough now?
Someone asked about their doubts, and Han Cheng nodded with a smile: "Compared with neighboring tribes, we are indeed stronger, but this is not enough..."
Han Cheng said, citing the example of the Bone Tribe arriving yesterday while they were out.
Everyone thought back and forth, and felt that what the Son of God said made sense. Their tribe was indeed stronger than the surrounding tribes, but it was not so strong that after some people were separated to look for cattle, the remaining people could still protect the tribe from harm.
"Then when will we be strong?"
Han Cheng thought for a moment and said: "When we have enough adults, we will have more food than we can eat, and our weapons will be sharper..."
Everyone was excited for a while, and then became distressed.
There is too much food to eat. After having fish cages, raising several animals in the tribe, and growing crops, this is not too difficult to do. Weapons...
Thinking about their stone spears and the new vine shield made by the Son of God, they felt that these were enough, but it was too difficult to handle with enough adults!
Although there are many babies in the tribe now, it will take a long, long time for these babies to reach adulthood.
Whether they will be there or not when the time comes is anyone's guess.
Even if they are still alive, many people are no longer fit to go out and fight.
Thinking about this, of course they felt uncomfortable. They all wanted to personally arrest the cattle that the Son of God said would be of great use to the tribe and make contributions to the tribe.
Someone expressed this concern.
Regarding the use of salt to slowly conquer several surrounding tribes, so far, only the three giants of the Qingque tribe know about it, and the rest of them don't know anything about it.
Han Cheng looked at the thick shaman wrapped in fur around him and his senior brother. The three of them looked at each other and smiled, which was quite treacherous.
"Won't!……"
Han Cheng gave a positive answer, but did not say anything about how to increase the number of adults in the tribe without relying on babies.
Everyone in the Qingque Tribe knew that the Son of God was smart. Since the Son of God said so, he must have a way!
At that moment, he no longer asked any more questions, but raised his head again and began to look up at the bright night sky.
I was recalling the story told by the Son of God in my mind, and thinking about that magical cow. Not only was the stone raised, but when the time came to find the cow, I killed the cow, put the cowhide on my body, and flew into the sky.
Humanity's yearning for the vast sky has never been cut off.
Han Cheng also didn't expect that his story would greatly enhance the Qingque tribe's dream of flying into the sky.
