The fish that Shao Xuan dragged ashore for the second time was slightly larger than the one just now. Without the help of the soldier to stab it to death with a spear, Shao Xuan smashed the fish with a stone. Even if he just fainted and left the water, This fish doesn't live long either.

After tying the fish with a rope and hanging it on a tree, Shao Xuan took out the small fish that had been stabbed in the opposite direction and found a few dry branches.

Looking around, Shao Xuan noticed that the two soldiers who were guarding the river bank were looking at him curiously, so he raised his hand and beckoned.

The two soldiers who returned to the guard point hesitated, but they couldn't restrain their curiosity and came over.

"Ah Xuan, what are you doing? Eat? Do you want me to help?" The soldier who was fighting the fish before was gearing up. He had already asked Shao Xuan's name and said.

They are both fearful and curious about the creature "fish", but now that the fish are dead, the fearful emotion has been cast aside, and only the hunter's curiosity about the new prey remains.

"I'll come, I'll come! Didn't you kill him just now?" Another soldier squeezed the former away, took out a stone knife, grabbed the fish, and ripped open his belly, while discussing with his companions.

"Huh? Is this the intestine? How can it be so short... "

"Where's its stomach? Is that this?"

"No, it's this, this must be the stomach!"

"Be careful... what is this? Don't break it, I don't know if there is a poison sac... "

"Where's the heart? Look further forward with the knife... Hey, can you do it? The fish is bleeding so much that the knife is unstable. No, I'll come..."

The two warriors over there were having a heated discussion, and Shao Xuan, who was standing beside him, was pumping straight on the face.

Is this a hunting warrior? This Nima is actually a eccentric forensic doctor, right

Two anatomy enthusiasts with excess curiosity!

No matter how broken Shao Xuan's impression of these two people is, it has to be said that these two people are really good at dissection, even if it's just the first time they come into contact with fish, they can quickly solve it. While dissecting, I also told Shao Xuan what they should pay attention to when killing prey when hunting in the forest, such as which animals have poisonous internal organs, which ones have poison sacs, which animal internal organs are more delicious, and so on. For unfamiliar creatures, for the sake of safety, they never eat offal.

Soon, all that was left was a fish with its internal organs hollowed out, its head opened several times, and its gills dug out.

"There's not much to eat. Fortunately, the size is decent." The soldier with the stone knife wiped the blood on the knife and said.

Instead of washing them in the river, the two soldiers just wiped the blood on the fish with leaves, then wrapped the fish's internal organs with leaves, and dug a hole next to a tree to bury it. The smell of blood may attract other things, which is fine in the tribe, but on the riverbank, in addition to flying in the air, there may also be creatures sensitive to the smell of blood in the water. to do similar things.

The tools used to make fire in the tribe were not as primitive as Shao Xuan thought at first, but with the help of a powder. Every soldier carries that kind of powder on his body. When he wants to set fire, he will take out a spoon-shaped stone tool and a stone pestle, put a little powder into the spoon-shaped tool, and quickly grind it with the stone pestle. , and soon the powder will burn, and the spoon-shaped tool becomes a small torch to light the hay and branches.

Shao Xuan was very surprised when he saw the grid fire in the cave for the first time. Originally, he thought that such a tribe would use drilling wood to make fire, or flint and other things, but he didn't expect it to be so convenient. Quick tool. The children in their caves do not have such firearms, and will have to wait until they become warriors and leave to stand on their own before they have their own firearms.

Sometimes when he looks at this tribe, Shao Xuan will feel a strange contradiction, as if the technology he has mastered is not in harmony with the current development of the tribe.

Doubts are doubts, and now Shao Xuan has not delved into it.

After the fish was grilled, one of the warriors tried a little bit, and after confirming that it was all right and the taste was good, the three of them and one wolf ate the fish. This amount of food was not enough for the two warriors, and Caesar was still not very keen on cooked food, so he was not interested in eating a little bit, only Shao Xuan was satisfied.

After eating the fish, the fish bones were asked by the two warriors and said they would keep it as a souvenir. Shao Xuan felt that the two actually wanted to take them back to show off to the teammates of the hunting team.

After that, the two soldiers continued to stand guard, while Shao Xuan took Caesar and dragged the dead fish tied with ropes back to the cave.

The sky was already dark, and some of the children in the cave were already asleep, and those who didn't sleep were brewing drowsiness, or waiting for Shao Xuan to come back.

There is a fire in the cave. Every day, the food transport grid will come to light a small fire in the evening to let the children in the cave warm or bake food, etc., and make fire for the children in the cave. The fire was put out, and it would be Shao Xuan's turn from today onwards.

Standing at the entrance of the cave, Shao Xuan asked Caesar to wait outside the cave, while he took a deep breath and strode into the cave.

The child who hadn't slept was a little older and surrounded the fire without knowing what he was thinking. When he saw Shao Xuan coming in, his eyes moved with him. Shao Xuan could feel these hostile gazes. After all, today Shao Xuan robbed them of the position they had been thinking about for a long time.

After Shao Xuan entered the cave, he climbed onto a large millstone-shaped stone nearly one meter high on the side by the entrance of the cave. Usually, this is the place where the library is used to divide food. Standing on it, you can see every part of the cave.

The older children all gathered around here, Shao Xuan glanced at them and clapped his hands, "Get up, everyone who hasn't slept gets up!"

Except for those who slept too deeply, everyone else in the cave gradually gathered around.

When Shao Xuan saw someone coming, he looked at the people in front of him and said, "I know that you are not convinced, that you are not happy that I will take over the position of Ku, you want to drive me down, come up by yourself, and wait for me here if you don't sleep at this time. Well. But! This is Uncle Ge's final decision. If you have any dissatisfaction, grievances, suggestions and opinions, don't face me, it's useless, you can go to Uncle Ge! "

The few children standing in front frowned, obviously thinking about the feasibility of finding a grid. Talk to Grid? Will Greg be angry? Will you stop giving out food when you get angry? Do you have to starve without food? That doesn't seem to work. After all, he is older and thinks a little more than other young children.

Shao Xuan glanced over there and continued: "Have you ever thought about why I can take over the position of the library, I am younger than you, not as tall as you, and not as strong as you, why did Uncle Ge let me take care of it?!"

"Because I'm stronger than you! I'm more capable than you!" He said so powerfully that his face didn't change when he lied. How could Shao Xuan know what Ge, who was in charge of delivering meals, thought? He also plans to talk to Grid tomorrow. But at the moment, what he has to do is to close the present first, and give a good shock to the little "wolf cubs" in the cave, otherwise he will have to prevent them from partnering to find trouble.

It's not that Shao Xuan doesn't want to use a gentler method, it's just that these little brats are too difficult to deal with, and reasoning will not work, and according to Shao Xuan's observation, what this person decides will not change for a while, so, Since he made Shao Xuan in charge of this hole, it will definitely last for a while, or even longer. Shao Xuande solved the trouble from the very beginning, not being strong.

The people standing in front of them were angry when they heard Shao Xuan's words, and one of them was so angry that his eyebrows almost stood up, but before he could say anything, Shao Xuan shouted back: "Shut up for me!"

After finishing speaking, Shao Xuan shouted out of the cave: "Caesar!"

Caesar, who was waiting outside the cave, bit the straw rope and dragged the tied fish in.

The eyes of the people in the cave were all on Caesar who had entered the cave. It was not until Shao Xuan went to fetch the dragged fish that he noticed that there were other things pulled into the cave.

"I hunted this thing!"

Shao Xuan untied the straw rope tied to the fish, revealing the fish's true body, and lifted the fish's tail vigorously, so that the group could take a good look.

Many fish have no eyelids, can't blink, and their eyes are wide open even if they die.

Under the not-so-bright firelight, the fish's original red eyes looked a little weird and dark. The wide open mouth opened and closed with the swing of Shao Xuan's hand, and the surrounding children could see the inside of the fish's mouth. Countless sharp teeth covered, the scales of the fish were wiped off the dust, reflecting the cold light, which added a touch of coldness to the already cold night.

The nearest children who were humming at Shao Xuan couldn't help but take a few steps back, with a strong look of vigilance in their eyes. At the same time, the eyes looking at Shao Xuan changed from provocation and hostility at the beginning to hostility. Be cautious.

The tribe advocates the strong, and the powerful warriors in the tribe will be worshipped by the entire tribe, and many times they like to use simpler and more direct methods, such as violence, to solve problems. But in addition to directly fighting, you can also judge the strength gap between the two sides according to their respective prey. The prey you hunt is better, proving that you are stronger than others.

But now, all the children in the cave are children who have not awakened to the power of totems, have not yet become totem warriors, cannot go out to hunt, and cannot get prey at all, unless they go to snatch it. Not to mention getting such a hideous prey.

At first glance, it is not easy to deal with, look at that tooth, how much flesh can be lost by being scraped by that.

"Can you hunt? Can you hunt such prey? Or can you get something else to eat?! You? You? You? Or you?! Who of you can do it?!"

The children who were pointed by Shao Xuan shrank back and shook their heads.

"You can't! Since you can't, let me hold back all your dissatisfaction and all your emotions!"

Hit a stick and give a sweet jujube, and of course you have to appease after the harsh words.

Shao Xuan lifted the fish.

"This is the gift I gave everyone on my first day in office!"

After Shao Xuan finished speaking, the cave was quiet for a while, and after a while, a child asked tremblingly, "What is the 'gift'?"

Another older person continued: "Can you eat?"

Shao Xuan choked: "… Yes." His heart was really tired.

coax-

The atmosphere in the cave suddenly heated up.

What dissatisfaction, what caution, what resentment, are all thrown away.

"Eat", for them, is probably the most beautiful word in the world.
