Heavy snow will fall from time to time. The result is that the snow that fell before has not melted much, and the new snow has already covered it.
At a time when everything was covered with snow, the primitive tribes living on this land lived similar but different lives.
When the mining team of the Qingque tribe set off, a tribe in the distance was also living quietly under the heavy snow.
This tribe is different from the ordinary tribes at this time. Outside the blocked cave entrance, there is an earthen wall that is more than one person tall, encircling the entire cave entrance, forming a medium-sized courtyard.
In this courtyard, there are two crooked things that look like shabby huts, made of soil, stones, branches, and some dead grass.
There was some firewood placed under the thatched shed, and there were more than twenty rabbits under the other thatched shed.
The blocked cave entrance opened from the inside, and a man wrapped in thick animal skins came out.
The leader was a relatively strong male primitive man, followed by several others.
Compared with other tribes that lose weight due to hunger in winter, the people in this tribe are relatively plump, and at first glance, they appear to be a tribe with plenty of food.
The leader came out, carrying something like a basket made of branches, with some hay in it.
As he got closer, he could make out a familiar face beneath the messy hair and beard.
This guy was expelled from the Qingque Tribe, but luckily he didn't have any dead tree bark.
Carrying the bark of the hay, he and several other people came to the shed where the rabbits were.
Because of the arrival of people, these rabbits jumped to the other side of the rabbit circle, looking at the two-legged monsters that appeared outside with panic.
Obviously it hasn't matured yet.
Bark poured the hay from the crude basket into the rabbit pen.
Then he crawled beside the rabbit circle, imitating the tribal shaman's behavior, and quietly looked at the rabbits.
If the first rabbits had not escaped through holes, there would have been more rabbits in the tribe than there are now.
But it was the group of rabbits that escaped from the hole that made him realize that the rabbit trap could not only use soil, but also needed stones.
The original leader of the tribe died of illness a few months ago, so Bark became the new leader of the tribe.
After the death of the old leader, it was inevitable that Shubari would become the new leader of the tribe, because he brought bows and arrows, fish cages, and walls to the tribe...
It was his arrival that made the tribe's food abundant and made the people in the tribe feel safe.
After the death of the old leader, there was no inherent fighting, and Bark became the leader of the tribe.
Shupi stood here, feeling uncomfortable looking at the low walls in the tribe.
The people in the tribe were all praising him for how wonderful the things he had made were, but he knew that somewhere far away, there was an even more magical tribe.
There, you can see things you never dreamed of.
Compared with that tribe, the things he and his people created in the tribe are really far behind.
Not to mention the rest, just the wall in front of him was enough for him to struggle with.
Because he can never build anything particularly tall.
Thinking about the admirable walls of that tribe, and then looking at the things in his own tribe, Bark felt extremely uncomfortable.
In the beginning, it was because he was fed up with constantly transporting stones to the tribe to build high walls and houses that he got into trouble like that and was expelled.
However, now, he took the initiative to lead people to build the wall, and he was also worried that the wall was not tall enough.
The world is so strange. After a series of conditions unfold, a person can behave completely opposite to before.
A student who is extremely good in all aspects and is enviable can turn into a pervert with extremely twisted psychology. A person who kills his mother and does no good things can also wake up after one day.
The majestic bald brother with tattoos and a big gold chain could squat in the grass and catch grasshoppers, and then feed them to kittens with a flattering look on his face. The rest of the things happened after they happened.
What's so strange.
Just like a person who fails to study hard and is then caught blind, Shupi regretted his laziness in the Qingque tribe.
If I had stayed in that tribe for a longer period of time and done more things, after I came here, the tribe would have been better than it is now.
Feelings of regret like this have actually spread in Shupi's heart for a long time.
He had just integrated into this tribe and gained status by learning some things from the Qingque Tribe. After gaining the respect of the people in the tribe, he rejoiced more than once that he was expelled from the Qingque Tribe.
If he had not been expelled from the tribe, he would probably still be carrying stones or doing other tiring things in that tribe, and it would be impossible for him to be the leader of a tribe like he is now.
His mood was similar to "If you don't leave me here, I will leave you here". After lasting for a while, it gradually disappeared because he found that no matter what, living in this tribe was not like living in the Qingque tribe.
Stay solid.
In the Qingque tribe, he only needs to complete the set tasks, and there is no need to worry about other things.
You don’t have to worry about not having food to eat, you don’t have to worry about not having clothes to wear, and you don’t have to worry about someone coming to attack the tribe...
Most people are like this. They don’t know how to cherish something when they have it, and they only want to have it again after losing it.
Recalling the appearance of the shaman of the Qingque tribe, I lay down next to the simple rabbit circle, looked at the rabbit's bark for a while, stamped my feet that were numb from the cold, rubbed my stiff hands, and then led the people back to the place.
When we arrived at the cave, we blocked the entrance to the cave.
There are a lot of people in the cave. Compared with when the bark came, the population is much larger. The extra people are mainly children.
With good food and warm clothing, not only are newborn babies more likely to survive, but women in the tribe are also more likely to become pregnant.
The people in the tribe are very satisfied with the current situation in the tribe, because this kind of life is much better than their previous life.
However, after living in the Qingque tribe for a period of time, Cao Shupi was not satisfied with this, because he had seen better things.
Putting aside things like houses and walls, there is no way to compare with that tribe in terms of population alone.
How to quickly increase the population of the tribe? Shubark, who was once captured by the Qingque Tribe, is not helpless.
When the weather warms up, you can lead people to attack a nearby tribe and plunder their population.
In this way, your own tribe will gradually become the most powerful one nearby, and no other tribe can compare with your own tribe.
Thinking of these things, Tree Bark, who had been silent for a long time, finally smiled.
He didn't think it was that difficult, because his tribe had bows and arrows that could shoot arrows far away.
The tribe attacked by your own tribe will definitely be defeated by your own people without much knowledge, just like the prey you hunted before...
The cold wind and thick ice in winter can't stop some people from wanting to expand.
This is true for the bark, and so is the Blackstone Tribe, a hundred miles away from the Bark Tribe to the north...
