The matter of the Ku tribe, let the people in the team get serious.
If the Kou tribe is not a very aggressive tribe, that's fine, even if it's a small fight, it won't affect the Yanjiao side. But if the people of the Ku tribe are very aggressive, then they have to be on guard.
Of course, Shao Xuan didn't actually think that the Khu tribe would be a tribe that likes to invade and snatch other people's property for a living. If it is dedicated to snatch, what else is there to develop and improve its skills? Besides, if the Khu tribe is very high-profile, why has no one heard of it in this area
Even when the expedition team of Yanjiao used to have several large trading areas in the inland, they had never heard the name of this tribe. It has never been mentioned by the expedition teams everywhere, and the people of the Pu tribe do not know the existence of the Ku tribe.
Then, the biggest possible situation for the Kou tribe is: it is far away, it is remote enough, and it lives near the Yanhe River, and it is not high-profile.
After such an analysis, Shao Xuan felt a lot more at ease.
The woodlands on the shore began to become lush again. In such a place, I don't know if there will be tribes.
After Shao Xuan flew in the air for a while, he got off the boat and continued to supplement the map. In fact, there is not much important information. The only landmarks that can be drawn on the map are mountains and water. There are not many mountains around here, but the water has begun to increase.
When Shao Xuan was in the air, he saw lakes and rivers, and there were more animals living in the woods, far and near, sharp and low-pitched, and all kinds of cries were noisy in the woods.
Shao Xuan was supplementing the map in the cabin when he heard a commotion outside. Dolly, they should have caught another fish, and it was a fish they had never seen before, otherwise there would be no such movement. There have been many similar things during this period, and the further down you go, the more species of fish it seems.
When he went out to see, Shao Xuanzheng saw A Guang holding a strange fish with a long and narrow upper arm in one hand. The strange fish has a pattern of mud yellow and black interlaced. If it stops diving on the shore, it is difficult to find it. It has a mouth like a suction cup, and its body is not slippery, but Aguang can hold the one tightly with one hand. A little bit below the head of the strange fish, so that the strange fish can only twist its body hard. In its sucker-like mouth, many tiny hook-like teeth form concentric rings, turning like gears, but, Unable to touch Aguang. The teeth in the mouth have a limited rotation angle, and after turning about 90 degrees, they turn back again.
Dori took a wooden stick and put it into the disc-shaped mouth of the strange fish. After hearing the sound of sizzling, the stick had been twisted into sawdust.
There are also two big fan-like pectoral fins on the strange fish, each of which can cover the face, but when Aguang grabs it, the two pectoral fins are closed together, so it looks narrow and slippery.
After playing with the fish for a while, they began to deal with the strange fish, thinking about roasting it and eating it.
"Hey, there's a hook in the belly of this fish!" Tuo, who was in charge of slaughtering the fish, took out the hook in the belly of the fish.
After washing away the blood, the shape of the hook is more pronounced.
Tuo handed it to Shao Xuan to see, "It's artificially polished."
Little finger-long stony hook with a curved tail and very sharply polished.
That strange fish's mouth can crush wooden sticks, but it can't crush hard stones, so the hook with obvious grinding marks will stay in the fish's stomach instead of being crushed into stone chips.
"Is there a tribe nearby? Or did it come from somewhere else?" Tuo looked at the forest on the bank and guessed.
The people in the team are more inclined to the former, so the people on the two ships before and after have raised their vigilance.
Shao Xuan didn't notice the scent of fire, even if there were tribes, they haven't encountered them yet.
After another half day, when Shao Xuan and the others came to the shore to rest and plant the monument, the hunters in the forest found some traces—a broken pottery pot half buried in the soil.
The pottery was made very small, but it was very detailed. It was painted pottery, and Shao Xuan was more concerned about the patterns on the pottery.
On the palm-sized pot, the dark mesh pattern was drawn very finely, and it can be seen that the painter must have been very attentive at the time. It is not difficult to draw reticulated patterns, but it is difficult to draw accurate and fine patterns on the curved pottery. This is not easy.
And now on the pottery pot they found, on the curved surface protruding outwards, hundreds of lines were drawn densely. Those lines were drawn very evenly and smoothly. The distance between the lines seemed to be measured with a ruler. In general, it is very accurate, and there is no sense of stagnation, one can imagine the skill of the painter.
In addition to those finely staggered lines, there are some thicker arcs and stripes, near the mouth and bottom of the bottle, and two-thirds of the bottle, there are such thick arcs and stripes. , in addition, it is densely interlaced reticulate. There is a strong contrast of thickness and thickness between the two, giving a very strong visual effect.
Making pottery also requires enthusiasm. In Yanjiao, the person in charge of making pottery is Xing. The longer Xing is in contact with pottery, the deeper his perception will be. He once said that the pottery that pours enthusiasm into the pottery and the pottery that is perfunctory, give people a completely different feeling.
Not to mention the shape of the pottery, but just the pattern drawn on it. Although the pottery pot in Shao Xuan's hand has been damaged, after washing away the soil, the fine brushstrokes on it are still clear, and the visual impact at first glance is strong enough. Otherwise, it will not be discovered by the Flaming Horned people who are looking for food.
At that time, the pot was half buried in the soil, and there were grasses covering it. It was just a small figure peeking out from the grass, but it was discovered at a glance.
It can be seen that this pottery was not made by hand. When making it, the maker devoted enough enthusiasm and patience to focus on this slap-sized pottery. Maybe the things contained in it before are also very important.
"Have you found a totem?" Tuo asked.
Shao Xuan shook his head, "I don't know for now. Maybe we didn't find it on it, maybe the part of the totem was damaged or missing, or maybe there was no totem painted on it at all. The second and third guesses are more likely. ."
Since the person who made this pottery is serious enough when making it, he will definitely be more careful and cautious when drawing the totem, and his emotions will be stronger. If there is a totem on it, Shao Xuan will even have never seen this pottery made before. The tribal totem of the tribal totem will definitely be seen at a glance.
"I don't know what the tribe that made this pottery is like. Could it be the Ku tribe?" Dori said.
Shao Xuan looked at the pot in his hand and thought.
Dori's guess was what he was thinking. Due to different totems and habits, different tribes will have different preferences in their preferences. For example, some like cloud patterns, while others like animal patterns.
Now, the pattern on this pot is one of the net patterns. Obviously, this tribe is more fond of the net pattern.
The Kou Tribe... It's really possible!
Without throwing away the pot, Shao Xuan brought it back to the boat and asked everyone to look around to see if they could find some other traces.
The more clues you have, the more you will know.
