After the three leaders also ate, the others began to move closer to the dead Meng Er, and even pushed each other in order to eat the hot meat earlier.
Cannibalism is not a shocking thing among the Tengshe tribe.
In their tribe, when people die, they are not buried, but eaten by everyone, just like eating prey.
When food was severely scarce and they did not gain much from robbing other tribes, the weak ones in the tribe would be killed and eaten.
Usually at this time, the old people are killed first, followed by those who have been injured and have difficulty moving, then women, from weak to strong, and so on.
This is also an important reason why when they attack and plunder other tribes, they will kill the men and plunder the women and children in the tribe.
These people can not only be used to develop and expand the tribe, but can also be eaten as food when necessary.
After everyone had eaten, Meng Er, who came to deliver the meat, could no longer look at it.
The second leader of the Soaring Snake Tribe asked men to remove the fleshless bones from Meng Er's body, throw away the internal organs, and then asked two people to carry him on his way.
This is their reserve food, so they can continue to eat it when they are hungry again...
After experiencing a huge defeat, they did not leave directly and headed for the tribe's base camp.
So many people died and nothing was brought back. Going back under such circumstances, the second leader of the Soaring Snake Tribe could not imagine what fate he would face.
One of the two people who went to follow the pig tribe died in the war, and the other was built in.
After returning to the place where they met the Qingque Tribe and the Pig Tribe at the same time in autumn, the remaining members of the Soaring Snake Tribe, under the order of the second leader, followed the previous person who had gone to the Pig Tribe to explore the road.
Go with the snow...
The leader of the pig tribe and his people trudged through the snow with difficulty. The lack of food in their stomachs, coupled with the long journey in the ice and snow, made them all look miserable.
Even the strongest leader is so weak that he can only hold on with his breath.
Their exposed skin had small cracks cut by the wind, and blood dripped from the cracks.
Hungry and bone-chilling cold made their movements stiff and slow, which can be described as trudging.
"%@%&"
The leader of the pig tribe used the spear in his hand as a walking stick. He panted and turned his head to cheer up the others in the tribe.
Then he led the people and walked forward.
Now, this friendly tribe that is about to arrive has become their entire hope.
Under current circumstances, the leader of the pig tribe did not even have to worry too much about whether this friendly neighbor would lend them food.
Going to this friendly tribe has become their obsession.
Close!
Closer!
The familiar yet unfamiliar creek and stone bridge appeared in front of me.
However.
What he saw next made the leader of the pig tribe completely stunned.
In his memory, there was a forest beside the river. After passing through the forest, he was the destination of his trip, the friendly neighboring tribe.
But now, where are the woods? There is only a patch of white snow and a flat plain.
At the end of this silver-white flat land, there stood a tawny mountain wall that was not too high.
The leader of the pig tribe was stunned, his eyes filled with confusion.
He looked down at the frozen creek, and then at the stone bridge not far away. These were no different from what he remembered, but how could the other side of the creek be like this? It was completely different from what he remembered.
He was full of doubts and felt that he might have gone to the wrong place.
He thought carefully about the route he took when he came here. It was the same as before, and there were no mistakes.
The leader of the pig tribe stood here for a while, and then led the people to this land that was completely different from what he remembered.
Regardless of whether they have found the wrong place, the leader of the pig tribe will lead people to find out. After all, this is where their hope lies.
Ironhead, wrapped in animal skins, gloves and a leather hat, stood on the low wall, meticulously watching what was going on outside the courtyard wall.
Yesterday's battle taught everyone in the Qingque tribe a good lesson.
They couldn't imagine what their tribe would be like if those ferocious enemies were not discovered in advance, but were discovered after quietly crossing the wall!
No one dared to have the slightest contempt for standing guard anymore. When it was their turn to stand guard, they all worked hard and paid attention to any disturbance outside.
"Um?"
Tietou, who was guarding behind the wall in the south, stared back and forth at the river in the distance.
Immediately he was sure that he was not dazzled, but that someone was really approaching his tribe from that side!
These people were walking on the unobstructed land covered with white snow, and they were approaching unhurriedly. There were quite a few of them. Tietou took a cursory glance and saw that there were at least ten of them!
That damn tribe really refuses to give up. Yesterday it was defeated by its own tribe, and today it comes again!
"Enemies! There are enemies!"
Tie Tou turned his head and shouted loudly toward the inside of the tribe. At the same time, he tore off the gloves on his hands, grabbed the two pieces of hardwood 'clapper' placed on the wall in front of him, and started banging them.
He struck so hard that his hands were numb from the shock.
This bangzi is used to signal warnings and summonses.
In the era when there were no gongs, Han Cheng had no choice but to get the clapper out and make do with it.
Tietou's shout was like a big stone smashed into the lake, instantly breaking the tranquility of the Qingque tribe and causing ripples.
The people standing guard behind the other two walls, after hearing Tietou's warning, immediately looked carefully in the direction they were responsible for. After confirming that there were no enemies, they immediately raised the two 'animal skin flags' placed beside them.
He took a shot, and at the same time turned towards the already noisy courtyard and shouted loudly: "There are no enemies!"
The purpose of raising the 'animal skin flag' is to prevent other people's voices from drowning out the message they are conveying in the chaos. With the animal skin flag, you don't have to worry about this problem.
One animal skin flag means there are no enemies, and two animal skin flags means there are enemies here. This simple meaning is easy to remember.
They had just experienced a big battle yesterday, and the people of the Qingque tribe had not yet completely let go of their nerves. When they heard Tietou's warning, they immediately began to take action.
After experiencing yesterday's battle, when they heard the news of the enemy's attack again, they were much calmer and more orderly.
This time they did not make the mistake of ignoring the other two walls. While running towards the south wall, they did not forget to turn their heads back and forth to see what was happening on the left and right walls. After seeing an animal skin flag being played on both the east and west walls,
They then ran towards the south wall confidently and boldly.
