Lang Ga choked.

Originally, Lang Ga also thought about several answers that Shao Xuan might say, and then answered and taught them one by one as an elder and a visitor, just like when new members joined in the past. It's just that Lang Ga didn't expect that Shao Xuan didn't play cards according to the routine at all. He really didn't understand why Shao Xuan gave such an answer.

Does it matter

But Lang Ga didn't think too much, and corrected with a face: "It's a stone!"

"You should also know that a long time ago, when our tribe settled here, they lived in stone caves. We see stones every day and come into contact with them. They can shield us from wind and rain, cut wood and chop wood."

Speaking of that, Lang Ga's stern face also faded, his emotions were a little excited, and he clenched his fists and said: "At the same time, we also use stones, relying on it, we can pierce those thick-skinned beasts! With stones! Break the heads of those prey! Even in danger, the stone will still be with us until the last moment!"

Can provide protection, can accompany you, will not betray, will not abandon. The people of the tribe have been in contact with stones since they were born. They play with stones, use stones for daily use, and use stones as utensils. For the warriors who often need to go out for hunting, the stone is more familiar, and it is inseparable from the stone. No wonder Lang Ga said this.

Of course, Shao Xuan prefers to call stones a tool. After all, stones have no vitality.

"Now, do you know who is our closest partner?" Lang Ga looked at Shao Xuan, and his eyes seemed to say, "You're wrong, try again?"

Shao Xuan nodded seriously, seriously, "Stone!"

"Ha, that's right." Lang Ga smiled with satisfaction and continued talking about hunting.

"By the way, Xuan, you have just woken up now. You cannot participate in the first hunting this year, and maybe you cannot participate in the second time. As for whether you can participate in the third time, it depends on your ability." Lang Ga said.

Um? And this statement? Shao Xuan really didn't understand.

Seeing Shao Xuan's doubts, Lang Ga explained: "You have just awakened, and you are not yet proficient in using your abilities. You must go through a period of training."

Lang Ga's words were quite euphemistic, but Shao Xuan could also infer the reason from these words.

They are not allowed to participate in these newly awakened children. One is for protection. After the winter is over, when the spring flowers bloom, many beasts that have been hungry for a winter are also active in the mountains and forests. The poisonous snakes are also more poisonous, and the mountains and forests are full of various crises. If no one follows the protection all the time, it is easy to collapse in the forest. The people of the tribe don't want to see this kind of thing happen.

The second reason is also because Shao Xuan and his group have not yet reached the standard. In the hunting team that values teamwork, it is a burden to follow the past rashly. Not only can it not help, but it is easy to delay.

"Understood." Shao Xuan didn't feel disappointed after he figured it out. Besides, he also felt that the foundation should be laid first, and it was not a bad thing to practice more.

He thought that Shao Xuan would show disappointment or unwillingness like the other children, but he didn't expect Shao Xuan to figure it out, and Lang Ga suddenly felt relieved. He brought Shao Xuan here, not only to let Shao Xuan know a few people in the same team, but also to tell Shao Xuan about this. In the past, there were often children sharpening knives and Huo Huo who wanted to go hunting with him, but he was told that he couldn't go the first two times, making a lot of noise. There are also a lot of them. Generally, in such a situation, it is the elders in the children's family who discipline them. After a few punches and slaps, they will be more honest. But Shao Xuan came out of the cave, and now he has no parents. He is still young and looks thinner than other children. Lang Ga is really afraid of being beaten.

"Okay, I can rest assured that you can understand. By the way, I still have a few good stone cores here. You can see if you can use them, and polish them yourself, or find a stone tool maker."

Lang Ga took out several stones of different sizes from a large animal skin bag, which is what Lang Ga called the stone core.

Stone core is the raw material for making stone tools.

After giving the stone core to Shao Xuan, Lang Ga also shared some training experience with Shao Xuan. The other people present did not hide their secrets, nor did they have such awareness.

Shao Xuan took their suggestions one by one in his heart and sincerely thanked them.

"Your father helped me before," Lang Ga said. This is the case with the people on the hunting team. Although it can't help a lot, at least it can make Shao Xuan relax.

After eating the barbecue, Shao Xuan left. He still had things to do, and Lang Ga and the others would continue to discuss the upcoming hunting in five days.

Shao Xuan came out of Lang Ga's house, and he was stopped after a short walk.

"Are you Xuan?"

Shao Xuanxun looked at the prestige and was talking about a child who was older than Shao Xuan. He looked about the same age as Sai, but he was stronger. The animal skin he was wearing was of good quality. He didn't seem to live near the foot of the mountain. People on the mountainside or higher. Shao Xuan had a bit of an impression of him. The same group of awakened people just didn't know their names.

At this time, the child raised his chin slightly, looked arrogant, and looked at Shao Xuan with scrutiny.

Don't your eyes get tired when you stand at a high place and raise your chin? Shao Xuan glanced at the other party and said, "Who are you?"

Originally thought that the other party would pretend to say something like "It doesn't matter who I am", but Shao Xuan listened to the other party and said directly: "My name is Fei, and I will go out with the hunting team in five days to participate in this year's 2019 2019 2019 2019 World Cup. A hunt. Are you going to wait a long time?"

After he finished speaking, he smugly said "hehe" to Shao Xuan, then jumped up and jumped over Shao Xuan's head. When he landed on his toes, he jumped out again. After a few ups and downs, he was already standing on Lang Ga. in front of the house. Obviously looking for Lang Ga for something.

Before the child entered the house, he turned his head and hummed at Shao Xuan, showing off his pride and pride. The hand just now was not bad among his peers. His father often praised him for running faster, jumping higher, and jumping farther than others.

Shao Xuan scratched his chin. That little brat moved so loudly when he landed, is it really okay to go hunting like this

However, it was the first time that a newly awakened child like Fei could go out hunting with the team. Obviously, someone in the team was covering him, and that person's status in the team was quite high. right to speak.

It is willful to have someone cover it.

However, Shao Xuan was not hit, and his mood was not depressed because of what happened just now. He is not a real child. He knows how to proceed step by step and is not so eager for quick success. This matter may affect other children a little, but for him it is not at all. Don't take it to heart.

Shao Xuan took Caesar to catch some fish. After a winter, the fish in the river were still so stupid that they would not let go after biting the bait. He looks fierce, but unfortunately he has no intelligence.

When I was with Lang Ga just now, I heard them talk about hunting. Shao Xuan knew that many prey in the mountains and forests were just like the piranhas in the river. arrive. And some prey, look docile, have no fangs, and are vegetarians, but if you are not careful, they will send you to the sky, and their aggressiveness is no less than that of many carnivorous species.

After all, it is an unfamiliar world, and it is better to make various preparations. Shao Xuan thought to himself.

Carrying the fish and a few pieces of old animal skins, Shao Xuan asked for help to sew the animal skin bag, and paid the manual fee for one fish. Then he took the remaining three fish and went to the stone tool division. Now that his strength is strong, without the help of Caesar, Shao Xuan is not tired of carrying four big fish.

When Shao Xuan arrived, just a few people came out of Ke's house, holding all kinds of stone tools that had been processed, such as stone knives, spearheads, stone adzes, and so on.

These people are all here to exchange stone tools. After all, the hunting is about to start, and they also need to prepare more tools. Ke is a relatively well-known stone tool master in the area near the foot of the mountain, and naturally many people come here. However, if it wasn't for Ke's bad temper, more people would come to change it. Every year Ke would get angry with some people who came to change stone tools.

Some people say that Ke is too direct, speaks without mercy, and does not understand detours. But Shao Xuan doesn't think so, do you really understand a lot of things? Are you really straight? not necessarily.

After receiving permission, Shao Xuan lifted the curtain and walked into the door.

Ke is grinding stone tools, and a batch of them was polished in winter. Most of them were exchanged in the past two days. There are still some stone cores and food piled up in the house. These are the "processing fees" that have not been collected yet.

Putting the fish on the side of the food pile, Shao Xuan came to Ke.

"Uncle Ke, I want to learn to polish stone tools."

The last time Shao Xuan came to study, Ke said that it was not yet time, and he would wait until he awakened the power of the totem.

Now, Shao Xuan is awakened. In addition, according to the training method that Lang Ga and the others said, a lot of stone tools are needed. Shao Xuan does not have so much food to exchange stone tools for training with others, so he wants to polish it himself.

Ke stopped what he was doing, looked at Shao Xuan carefully from top to bottom, and looked directly into Shao Xuan's eyes.

Shao Xuan did not avoid it either.

A few seconds later, Ke handed Shao Xuan a stone hammer and pointed to a stone core not far away, and several lines were drawn on the stone core, all of which were curved, not straight.

"Follow the line, knock," K said.

As a newcomer, Shao Xuan held the stone hammer, looked at Ke, then at the stone core lying there, raised the hammer and swung it down.

The first time I was too cautious, I knocked next to the line, but only a shallow pit was knocked on the stone core. Too little force.

Come again!

The second time, the force was too strong, and the knocked down was not a stone piece but a stone block, and it exceeded the drawn line.

Shao Xuan glanced at Ke's forehead and knew that Ke was very dissatisfied with his two blows just now, but since Ke didn't say anything, Shao Xuan continued to knock along the line, and let go of the courage to knock, not because of the first two The lower knock fails and is timid.

Peeling a predetermined size of stone from the stone core is not as simple as it seems. The stone tool maker has to estimate the length, angle and speed of the moment of contact between the hammer and the stone core according to different stones. Wait, is it a straight hit? Or arc strike? What is the material of the stone hammer and stone core? There are many factors such as the amount of force and so on.

These grams have all been told to Shao Xuan, and every time Shao Xuan comes here, he has seen a lot of the process of peeling off the stone chips from the stone core, but if you really get started, you will know that it is very difficult!

A small difference is a thousand miles away.

Come again! !

Shao Xuan was knocking hammer after hammer, and Ke sat beside him and watched silently.

Caesar, who was squatting beside him, looked at Shao Xuan, and then at Ke, who was silent but looked very bad, moved his legs, retreated, retreated again... He retreated directly to the corner and lay on his stomach with the fish.
