The little old man with the horns on his head and the brown witch led the way, and Chen Chao led the people behind pushing the wind-powered unicycle. Walking on both sides were two mobile clothes drying rack teams with wood on their shoulders. A strong man with a stone ax or short spear.
While leading the way, the brown witch inquired with the little old man who was walking beside him, what were the people in his former tribe carrying with wood? If he read it correctly, it should be the skin of a big black bear, right
The little old man thought for a while, but actually he didn't know how to explain this thing, so he just perfunctory a few times. Anyway, he communicated by hand gestures, and the basic meaning was all guesswork.
At this time, he also deeply understood the benefits of the 'language' that his tribe was learning, which was comparable to the previous dialect with only vocabulary.
He used to think that the dialect of his tribe just suffered from insufficient vocabulary and imperfections in all aspects.
Comparing it with the situation of the Brown Tribe now, he has a clue in his heart.
It turns out that the 'language' newly learned by my own tribe is so much more advanced than that of the Brown tribe.
For example, my own tribe basically has a way of expressing everything, and some may not. Of course, that's just because I haven't learned it yet, and it's absolutely impossible that this expression doesn't exist.
As for the dialect of the Brown Tribe, most of them only express some very basic and commonly used things.
Moreover, everyone's expressions are different, and there has not really been a situation where an agreement has become a custom.
For example, for 'stone', maybe the brown witch thinks it should send '&just %》', but the leader brown thinks it should send '^*#%￥'. Everyone pronounces things differently, and in the end they can only use 'this' or 'that', or use their fingers.
So in such a comparison, a certain little old man naturally felt in his heart that the 'language' of his tribe was really leveraged.
Maybe there will be a better language in the future, but now the language of our Tianyuan tribe at least solves this basic problem, doesn’t it~~
But the brown witch saw that the little old man couldn't get anything to say, so he ran to ask those clansmen who were acting as mobile clothes racks.
Of course, there is no reason to ask. As for the small pit where the animal skin was tanned, even if Chen Chao didn't have someone specially deal with it, it would be buried under heavy snow in a few days.
Moreover, the tanning of animal skins seems simple, but in fact, if you don’t know that the most important material is the burned plant ash, it’s useless to think about it.
The mountain path is winding and winding, and the snow is gradually falling from the sky. The scenery is too beautiful to behold, but it is hard for a group of people who are on the road.
Fortunately, it disappeared after a while. But Chen Chao and the others didn't take it lightly, they were all worried that this was a harbinger of the coming big blizzard.
The group quickened their pace, and finally arrived near the Mushroom Tribe not long after noon, and successfully found a cave suitable for living.
The cave was found, but there were no stones nearby that could block the entrance of the cave. Now the Brown Witch has found a place where he can use his strength. Along the way, he sometimes wants to help this man push the cart, and sometimes he wants to help the man who carries the log, but they all kindly refuse.
The brown witch found Chao Chen who was assigning tasks, and gestured that he had found the big rock blocking the cave.
Chen Chao glanced at him and said nothing, probably the old silver coin was still holding back his words.
After waiting for a while but not getting the desired reaction, the Brown Witch started to feel a little anxious, and continued to make gestures. That means, he can go to the Mushroom Tribe to borrow a big rock first, but he needs to give him two more pairs of straw sandals!
Here you go, waiting for you here!
Chen Chao waved his hand, go! Isn't it just two pairs of straw sandals! As for straw sandals, the boss of this system has brought more than a thousand pairs~~
But Chen Chao also added an additional condition, that is, straw sandals are fine, but at night you have to bring the leader of the Mushroom Tribe and Wu to our place for a meal!
And we have to take two people from our side together, and introduce them to the leader of the Mushroom Tribe and the witch~~
As for the person you brought, you have to stay and help us, otherwise we will be too busy here.
After seeing the brown witch nodding again and again, Chen Chao sent Broken Finger Li Nong and his little follower, Ban Zhong, both of whom belonged to Qu's wind-powered unicycle manufacturing department, and were also the first to learn how to make unicycles with Chen Chao. Several people.
Of course he was worried about the brown witch taking his own people to the mushroom tribe, what a joke. I only promised to give him a few pairs of Mowozi straw sandals. If he went to the Gu tribe later, he would gang up with the Gu tribe and rob him of a dozen people.
Then he has nearly a thousand pairs of straw sandals...
So taking hostages and sending two people to assist him is the basic operation~~
After sending the Brown Witch and the other three away, Super Chen then began to assign tasks.
Because he was worried that the mountain might be blocked by heavy snow in the future, Chao Chen did not choose to visit the Mushroom Tribe immediately. Instead, disperse the team to collect food and wood and other fuels.
In addition, they may show their own products to the senior management of the Mushroom Tribe at night, so it is best to have a more hearty meal for the evening meal.
In this way, more wood and meat are needed. The logging team can have fewer people, after all, it can be solved nearby. The hunting team is more troublesome and needs to go farther.
But fortunately, the two short and strong men who joined were not only good hunters, but also very familiar with the environment around the Brown Tribe and the Mushroom Tribe. I believe there should be no major problems.
Looking at the snowflakes gradually falling from the sky, Chao Chen couldn't help feeling a little bit worried. Seeing that the snow was about to fall heavily, the hunting team led by Qu hadn't returned yet.
He closed his eyes slightly, and saw a group of people carrying wild deer or carrying hares walking in the snowflakes all over the sky, and some were carrying the pheasant that was most often seen in the brown tribe before.
Overall, a rewarding experience.
Only then did Chen Chao feel relieved.
The logging team led by Zhi Zhi is also constantly carrying the freshly processed wood. The bonfire in the cave has already been lit, and the snow water on the simple stove has also made the sound of "gurgling".
First served a few bowls for the logging team to warm them up. Not long after, the hunting team returned with a full load.
As soon as I came back and put down the prey, I was able to drink a sip of hot boiling water with a warm pottery bowl in my hand. It really made me feel so happy.
The Mowozi straw sandals on their feet were somewhat soaked, but fortunately they were wrapped with two layers of animal skin limbs (socks). After taking it off, carefully put it near the campfire to roast, and after a while, it will be a pair of good pockmarked buns again.
It's just that the group of brawny men who were warming up with their bare feet were sent out by Chen Chaoquan to wash their feet with warm water in a clay pot before they had been warming up for a few minutes.
Without him, it really stinks...
Do you want to cook and eat in the cave later...
So a group of strong men wiped their feet with the snow on the ground at the entrance of the cave. After wiping the snow, they poured warm water on it from a clay pot and rubbed it. The facial features are distorted one by one, and I don't know if they are burned or cool~~
The snow in the sky is getting bigger and bigger, and the sky is gradually getting dark. The clay pot in the cave has been stewed with hare meat and pheasant meat.
In the growing snow, the trio of brown witches also brought back a few guests and a big rock.
Super Chen and the little old man with ram's horns hurried out and brought them in, and each served a bowl of hot chicken soup.
The brown witch ate a bowl of chicken soup, and then regained his strength. He didn't cut off the animal skin clothes wrapped tightly around Li Nong and his little follower Zhong. The animal skin on his body is not only not tightly wrapped, but also runs away from the wind at every turn.
It doesn't matter if you run out of wind, your arms and legs have to be exposed.
After welcoming everyone into the cave, Chen Chao discovered that there was actually an elderly grandmother and a young girl inside.
Against the backdrop of these two women, the two men standing next to them looked a bit inconspicuous.
Not only him, but even the little old man with the horns on his head was taken aback. He felt that it was a great thing for him to live to this age, but there was actually a woman older than him here.
Chen Chao glanced at Brown Witch, that means, no introduction
The brown witch quickly put down the pottery bowl, pulled the oldest grandma over, and pointed at herself, which meant that she was a witch just like me.
Then he pointed to the girl, which meant that she was Wu's successor.
When the introduction was young, she smiled and took a large bag of things wrapped in animal skins from behind and handed it to the little old man with the horns on his head. After seeing the little old man took the animal skin bag, she was still muttering something.
Finally, the leader and deputy leader of the Mushroom tribe were introduced to Super Chen and the little old man in sequence.
Everyone was a bit cautious at the beginning, but under the warm guidance of the brown witch, everyone gave a warm hug and a few bowls of hot chicken soup, and the atmosphere quickly eased.
At this time, several people from the Mushroom Tribe were watching the small stone basin in their hands carefully under the light of the fire.
If you want to pay attention, you must have noticed it when you came in and received the small stone basin just now.
Although they felt very curious, they knew very well that their visit this time was not for such a small stone basin. It's for another big stone basin that the brown witch said, which can be put on the fire!
