The leader of the Donkey Tribe made a confused voice, and the rest of the Donkey Tribe also looked at each other.
Because there is no one inside the cave with the entrance of the cave.
It was deserted inside, with not a single human being in sight.
There was a pile of ashes in the middle of the cave, but it looked like it was from a long time ago.
On the edge of the ashes, there was some animal dung. It must be winter time, so I lay on it to keep warm.
People from this tribe actually left?
Where did they go?
The leader of the donkey tribe thought in confusion.
The people of this tribe must have migrated away, because the cave is very clean and there is nothing left behind.
If there had been some kind of disaster, we shouldn't have walked so calmly.
The unexpected lack of people in this tribe made the leader of the Donkey tribe feel regretful because he lost another trading partner.
And coming here, going back and forth, would take up a lot of his time.
He didn't stay here too long. After waiting for a while, he left with his people and rushed to the next tribe to make a deal.
It was at this time that someone suddenly shouted, and the voice was a bit sharp.
The leader of the Donkey Tribe clenched the weapon in his hand and hurried over, only to see a pile of bones piled up in a dark place.
At first he thought it was nothing, but after the person reminded him and realized that these were human bones, he became a little uneasy.
He asked people to use the stone spears in their hands to move the bones to a place with good light, and saw traces of fire burning on some of the bones.
The leader of the donkey tribe and others couldn't help but twitch in their hearts, feeling as if a rabbit had died and a fox had died.
However, this feeling did not last long and was replaced by deep joy.
Fortunately, their tribe had a smart leader, a leader, who found a way for them to live well.
Otherwise, they would definitely not be able to afford salt, and like this tribe, it is not impossible for them to be so hungry that they kill each other and then migrate to other places.
Thinking this way, they respected and worshiped their leader even more.
The leader of the Donkey Tribe also felt that he was lucky to be in the tribe, so he accepted all the compliments from the tribe members without hesitation.
"@#¥!"
Not long after this sentiment was expressed, the leader of the Donkey Tribe shouted loudly, took the lead in carrying the jar of salt, and led the tribe out of the abandoned cave to the next tribe to make deals.
Because of the bloody lessons of this tribe, the people of the Donkey Tribe became more enthusiastic about deals that made them live a better life.
They followed the leader and walked through the snow. No one thought it was hard...
This cave was destined not to be too quiet. After the Donkey Tribe people left, as the ice and snow gradually melted, green grass protruded from the ground, branches revealed new buds, and some fine wild flowers began to bloom, another group of people came here.
The people who came here were the second leader of the Tengshe Tribe and the crooked-nosed Cao Gen and others who left here after the snow fell last winter and returned to the big tribe to spend the winter.
The precious pottery and salt were highly valued by the shamans and other people of the Tengshe tribe, so at the beginning of spring, they left the tribe with the previous group of people and returned here to wait and see.
Caogen seemed very happy to return to the cave where he used to live.
It's not that he is nostalgic, but because after coming here, he can continue to wait for the deer and wolves that have made him suffer repeatedly.
This has almost become his obsession, just like the second leader of the Yuan Teng Snake Tribe curses the Qingque Tribe every day.
“*&&…?”
The second leader of the Soaring Snake Tribe looked at the wall of white bones that had been ripped open in the cave and raised a question.
Obviously he was wondering why this pile of bones without any meat was picked open.
Could it be that after they left, other tribes came?
Or did they come directly from the tribe they had been waiting for for a long time?
If that were the case, it would be very uncomfortable.
“#¥%……”
In such worries, the crooked-nosed Cao Gen pointed to the animal excrement beside the pile of ashes they had left before, and told the second leader of the Soaring Snake Tribe.
Under the threat of death, many people can be inspired to unleash their potential, and this is the case at the grassroots level.
After the Tengshe tribe saw two women who couldn't understand being killed and eaten twice, the grassroots became extremely active in learning the tribe's language and behavior and integrating into the tribe as soon as possible.
The second leader of the Soaring Snake Tribe came over and looked at the animal's feces carefully. The feces was a little white, like it was left by a carnivore.
It is difficult to find food in winter, and it is very likely that carnivorous beasts will come to the cave and, when hungry, tear open the meatless bones in search of something to satisfy their hunger.
After confirming this, the second leader of the Soaring Snake Tribe was relieved and no longer thought about whether that tribe had come.
Instead, people put the food they brought in the cave, spent a lot of effort to raise the fire, and grilled some food, and then began the period of people preparing for hunting.
Prepare to continue to die here waiting for the tribe with a lot of precious pottery and salt...
At the same moment, the leader of the Donkey Tribe led the people of the Donkey Tribe towards the Qingque Tribe, carrying the many furs they had obtained through hard trade.
After arriving at the Qingque tribe, he will exchange the furs for salt and pottery and continue trading with other tribes.
However, this year’s transactions are not as easy as before.
It's not that the surrounding tribes' demand for pottery and salt has dropped. On the contrary, after a long period of consumption, these tribes' demand for salt has become stronger.
The reason why the trade is difficult is that after these two years of exchange, the excess furs of these tribes have basically been exchanged...
We still need to find a new tribe, the leader of the Donkey Tribe thought.
But when he thought about the Qingque tribe that was about to arrive, his mood improved again.
Ever since their tribe began to trade pottery and salt with other tribes, their tribe has become the richest among the nearby tribes, except for that wealthy tribe.
During the previous happy party, he still clearly remembered the surprised look on the face of the leader of the Green Tribe when he saw the many skins they had brought.
Every time he thinks about it, the leader of the Donkey Tribe feels particularly happy.
He is now thinking about how great it would be if he could meet the Green Tribe again this time. In this case, he could surprise the Green Tribe people again...
After thinking about this for a while, he shook his head and felt that it was unlikely that he would encounter the Green Tribe. After all, they were different from his own tribe. They couldn't have so much fur to exchange for things as soon as they got warm...
