A rabbit bites people when it's anxious, let alone a living person facing a life-or-death crisis.
The male troll who had two fingers cut off by Li Muye earlier knew that he was no match for the female troll, so he ran away in fear, and finally hid behind Li Muye and shouted for help.
As soon as Makino heard his call for help, his spirits suddenly lifted. This turtle grandson can actually speak Chinese, but he has been pretending to be mute before, which is more interesting. He quickly waved his hand to stop the giant ax female monster. This female monster regarded Brother Xiaoye as a god and did not dare to disobey her, so she quickly stopped her pursuit. Li Muye motioned her to go aside and wait, then asked: "Can you speak our words?"
Those who can speak and think should be considered human beings.
The male savage nodded and said: "Yes, a little bit."
"May I have your name?"
"White stone."
There really is a way. Li Muye pointed at the giant axe-woman and asked, "Then what is her name?"
"Black stone."
The name was chosen casually. For the savage tribesmen of the Stone Age, it would be nice to add a color modification in front of the stone. This is the same as when we, in our pre-intellectual times, casually called children shit or shit.
Li Muye chuckled and asked, "Bai Shitou, shouldn't your tribe be called the Stone Tribe?"
Bai Shitou shook his head and said, "We are called the Black Bird Division." He looked at Hei Shitou and said, "I am his wife."
"Are you her wife?" Li Muye asked curiously, "Then why did she kill you as soon as we met?"
Bai Shitou said: "I like to go to the cave to watch the people talk in the story. Our ancestors forbid us from doing this. She is the clan leader, so..."
"Do you think we learned our language from the cave?" Li Muye suddenly became interested and asked.
Bai Shitou said: "There are many caves here, and there are talking immortals who are always talking."
"Where is it? Take me there and have a look."
Bai Shitou looked at Heishitou in fear and said, "The ancestors have a ban. If you go there, you will be beheaded by her."
Li Muye said: "No, I am here. If she wants to chop off your head, I will chop off her head first."
Bai Shitou chirped to Heishitou. Heishitou immediately waved the stone ax in his hand and responded. Bai Shitou pointed at Li Muye and then made a gesture of spreading his hands. Brother Xiaoye understood that this boy was probably asking Heishitou for instructions to go to the cave. Heishitou didn't agree, so he said it was Brother Xiaoye's wish.
Heishitou tilted his head and looked at Li Muye, looking thoughtful.
Li Muye repeated his old trick and created a large ball of fire, while pointing at her with an angry face as a threat. Black Stone was immediately shocked and kowtowed to the ground. Bai Shitou also knelt down and said: "Great God of Fire, please forgive my husband's stupidity." Black Shitou hurriedly said something. Bai Shitou translated: "Please do not bring down the divine fire to burn down our village. In order to beg for your forgiveness, my husband is willing to dedicate the most delicious food to you."
His Chinese pronunciation is weird, he speaks stumblingly, and has a slight Central Plains accent.
Li Muye's curiosity was aroused by the stone cave in his mouth, and he ordered: "There is no need for food. Let her go back to the tribe first. You talk to me and take a look at the place where the gods talk."
Bai Shitou told Black Stone what Li Muye wanted. Although Black Stone was fierce, he did not dare to disobey the gods.
When Li Muye waited for Liang Hongnong to follow him, he chatted with Bai Shitou about the small world in front of him.
In this interesting little space, a new human race is sprouting. The vast ocean in the middle is called the World Ocean by the white stones. The volcano erupting in the center is considered by them to be the residence of the god of fire and is absolutely forbidden to enter. There are three tribes surrounding the World Sea. Among them, the Blackbird tribe has about three to four hundred people, who make a living by growing vegetables and hunting. Women are respected for living longer. They passed down the techniques of cultivation and gathering from generation to generation and thus became the dominant force in society. In Bai Shi's terms, women know how to grow and eat, and men only know how to hunt, so men should listen to women.
Not only did they create their own language, but they also used knotted ropes to record the details of each person's birth. Strictly follow the rules passed down by the ancestors and control the population and the ratio of men to women according to their own production capacity. Try to maintain a social structure with more men than women.
Any progress in human civilization is inseparable from some brave exploration. If everyone followed the rules, there would be no dynasty changes, and there wouldn't be so many civilizational creations. Rules ensure the continuation of the race and also limit the space for human development. Therefore, there will always be one or two restless guys who want to challenge the rules. Bai Shitou is such a person.
The territory where the tribe lives is close to a cliff and there are some caves. According to old legend, it is a place where gods live and no one is allowed to enter. If anyone breaks the rules, he will be beheaded by the clan leader's stone axe. Bai Shitou is a naturally curious guy and has been secretly interested in those caves since he was a child. He is the child of the previous clan leader, and he and Hei Shitou are both husband and wife and half-siblings.
Because Bai Shitou does not need to take on too many hunting and fighting tasks in the tribe, he has more free time. So one day, he finally violated the clan rules and quietly entered the cave. He learned Chinese from the immortals in the cave.
The caves extend in all directions and are even larger than their tribe's territory. The gods were talking on the walls and doing strange things. Bai Shitou couldn't understand or speak at first, but after listening for a long time, he gradually gained some understanding, but he never had the chance to talk to others.
Liang Hongnong arrived, and with him came the wild woman Bai Shitou called Qing Caitou. This woman is better at growing vegetables and is also good at hunting, hence her name. He is one of the more prestigious people in the tribe, but because he comes from the Greenland Tribe next door, he is destined not to become the leader of the tribe. Bai Shitou thought she was an ambitious guy. She married several men, bribed the elders with green vegetables, and just gave birth to two daughters. She clearly wanted to establish a higher reputation in the tribe and replace Hei Shitou.
After listening to his introduction, Li Muye immediately remembered the classic saying, where there are people, there are rivers and lakes.
Qing Caitou was confused that the white stone appeared in the cave but the black stone was not. Brother Xiaoye pretended to be the god of fire again and ordered her to do whatever she was supposed to do. The wild woman looked confused and unwilling, and left angrily. Li Muye ordered Bai Shitou to lead the way and lead the two of them to visit the gods in the caves.
Deep in the cave, along the stone wall corridor that glowed for some reason, the two followed the white stone to a spacious and bright place.
Bai Shitou introduced: "This is a place where gods speak."
Li Muye and Old Monster Liang looked around and found that the place was very wide, surrounded by many stone drums with many ancient seal characters engraved on them. In the center stood a huge stone table, glowing with cyan light, and vaguely carved from a single piece of sapphire.
"Where's the talking god?" Li Muye asked after looking at it.
Bai Shitou picked up a drumstick on the sapphire desk, walked to one of the stone drums, waved his hand and knocked it.
A magical scene happened. The whole space suddenly echoed with the sound of reading aloud, and two beams of light lit up above the cave, eventually condensing into two human-shaped holographic images. One is black and the other is white, but neither looks like a Middle-earth person. The black one is somewhat similar to the Tianzhu demon monk, while the white one has dark brown hair and blue eyes.
Li Muye and Liang Hongnong were both surprised. They thought they would find the secrets of ancient Chinese civilization here, but they did not expect to see such a scene. Neither of these two people are of the yellow race, so why do they appear in the crypt of the shrine? And it appears here with high-tech means such as holographic images.
At this time, the two people suddenly started talking, and what they spoke was authentic Chinese.
"On the 13th day of the white month of the Vedic calendar, in the ancient land of Sinian, the experimental subject No. 16 of the Shennong tribe has a body temperature of 28 degrees, in a dormant state, the Yin induction test is keen, the cells were collected successfully, and one unit of dormant agent was injected... . ..”
PS: I haven't been feeling well these past few days, and I also had some blood in my stool. I went to the hospital for a checkup today. The update is slightly affected, so please understand. In fact, I don’t want to stop updating and get perfect attendance. (End of chapter)
