Chapter 87 Move to the Top of the Mountain

When Ye Xi woke up, he felt that his feet were icy cold, and when he looked down, he found that the water had spread to the back of his feet.

At this time, the thunder had stopped outside, and the rain had become much smaller.

But the sky was still dark, and the layers of dark clouds in the sky made it impossible for the sun to penetrate.

Everyone carried the prey on their backs.

This time, I can tie it with tenacious vines when I have time. Xiaote, the terrifying beast, bears the weight of two brown bears, and the others are much easier.

in the jungle.

After a night of torrential rain, the jungle seemed to be flooded again, and in the low-lying places, the water was even down to the knees.

The towering green tree group seems to be submerged by the clear stream, and there are a few scattered small fish swimming up from the river because of the rising water.

The warriors and Xiaote, the fearsome beast, were blocked from moving, but the Jiaojiao looked like a duck in water, and the speed was faster than before.

In the light rain, everyone returned to the tribe, walking on the clear and shallow forest and stream.

At this time, there was no one in the open space of the tribe because it was raining.

Chief Yong and others were standing near the entrance of the cave. Seeing them come back completely, with a happy face, they strode out to greet them.

"Are you all alright, yesterday the thunder was so big, we were worried all night." Yong and the others took their prey as they asked.

The prey on Luo's hand was picked up by the warehouse, so he finally had his hand to wipe the rain on his eyes: "Yesterday, the thunder was really dangerous, but we were lucky, we ran into the cave in time, and we were not struck by the thunder."

The dolphin walked into the cave habitually, and found that the cave was full of water at this time, as if flowing into a dark river: "Ah, our cave is also flooded."

However, the terrain of the cave is low, which is also predictable.

"Yeah, it rained heavily last night, and the rain kept overflowing from the cracks. Lying down can completely drown people. We all slept sitting last night."

"So we started moving to the top of the mountain this morning."

Hunting a team of warriors you speak my word.

It was really impossible to sleep like this in the cave. Ye Xi remembered that there were still things in his own rock cave, and said, "Then I'll go and take out my things."

Yong stopped him: "No need to go, we will help you move all the things in your cave to the top of the mountain."

Now that everything has been moved to the mountain, everyone didn't say more and walked directly to the top of the mountain.

The soil on the mountain was soaked by the rain and was soft and sticky, and if you stepped on it, it was a deep pit.

Xiaote is a fearful beast. He is not very agile to climb the hill, let alone the ground is so slippery. His huge body almost fell over, and it was Putai and a few people who grabbed its tail before pulling it back.

on top of the mountain.

More than a dozen simple and heavy bluestone mansions stand staggered in the rain.

In the middle of these bluestone houses, there is an unfinished house. The clansmen were busy around, making final repairs.

Many of these busy people are tribal slaves, and most of them are female slaves.

Although the primitive tribes can take care of women, female slaves are not in the scope of care, and will do some heavy work that only men do.

But pregnant female slaves are different, can stay in the house to rest and do some light work.

Ye Xi saw that there was a large stone jar in front of each stone house, and asked Yong, "Uncle Yong, what is this for?"

"The stone jars are used to catch rainwater and prepare for the dry season."

"Then why don't you put more jars?" Ye Xi counted and found that there were only about 20. He remembered that there were 50 stone jars in the tribe.

There was helplessness in Yong's eyes: "Once the water in the tank is left for a few months, it will stink, people will have diarrhea after drinking it, and people in the tribe even drink to death. So it's useless to save more, these are enough."

Ye Xi suddenly realized that the people in the tribe did not know how to purify filtered water, and it was not distilled water.

How could it not be bad for so long.

A group of warriors stood in the middle of the bluestone mansion, and the chiefs allotted their quarters one by one.

"Luo, Ling... You guys live in this house." The chief pointed to one of the bluestone houses.

"Litu, Huru, Jiao... you guys live in that house."

...

"Ye Xi, Putai, Jue, Tudou, let's live together, let's go."

There are more than 200 people in the tribe, time is limited and space is limited, it is impossible to build a house for each family.

At present, twenty ordinary people live in one room, thirty slaves live in one room, and witches live alone in one room.

With so many people living together, the accommodation conditions can be imagined.

However, the senior members of the tribe still have preferential treatment, and there will be fewer people in the house. Ye Xi is a disciple of the witch, and Putai is a second-level warrior, so naturally they are also included.

Cone's dead grandfather was a second-level warrior of the tribe, so Cone can also live in this house as a family member.

As for the dolphin, it was the son of the chief, not to mention.

Ye Xi and the others followed the chief into the quaint bluestone mansion.

A warm and dry breath suddenly hit the face.

The ground of the stone house is also covered with thick bluestone slabs, but a square bare ground is left in the middle, which is built into a small fire pit, and the bottom is full of dry wood, which is used for fire.

At this moment, a small fire is burning on the fire pit, making the house warm and dry.

"Father!" Putai's son Tao rushed up like a small cannonball and hugged his leg.

Putai smiled and hugged him.

There were four women sitting in the room, Duo, the chief's partner, Shuiwen, Putai's partner, Cone's mother, and his new partner Ling.

Originally, the four women were bowing their heads to sew something, and they hurriedly greeted them when they came back. Seeing how the men were all wet, I took a few pieces of dry animal skins and wiped them off.

Tao got off Putai, and immediately ran to Ye Xi's feet, raised his head and said, "Brother Ye Xi, what kind of prey did you hunt yesterday?"

Tao admires Ye Xi very much, and always likes to stick to him and talk to him.

Ye Xi patted Tao's head and said warmly, "The prey is at the door, you can see it by looking outside."

Tao just looked at his grandfather and didn't even notice the prey piled up at the door. Hearing this, he turned his head to look: "Wow, there are brown bears, and there are terrifying beasts!"

At this time, there were already clansmen dealing with the prey outside.

Tao ran out of the house and wanted to take a closer look.

Although it was raining lightly outside, his Eminem watermark did not stop him.

Primitives have good physique, and even if Tao Cai is only four years old, he will not get sick even if he gets a little rain.

Ye Xi saw a pile of long cylindrical things sewn with fur in the corner of the house, and there was a pile of half-sewn items next to it, so he asked strangely, "What is this?"

Duo smiled and picked up two of the cylindrical furs and handed them to Ye Xi: "It's for use on the feet, try it out, these are made for you."

Ye Xi took them and bent over to put them on one by one.

These two cylindrical furs are very similar to stockings, and the material is very thick, and a set of furs immediately gives rise to a warm feeling on the calf.

Ye Xi did as he did, and asked strangely, "What is this for?"

Cone smiled and hurriedly said: "I won't tell you first, you will know tomorrow!"

Still for sale? Ye Xi smiled and didn't ask any further.

Cone waited for a while, seeing that Ye Xi didn't continue to ask him, the corners of his raised mouth pressed down again boringly.

Early the next morning.

Ye Xi was awakened by a good smell of food.

Sitting up, I saw a stone pot on the firepit in the house, and the soup in the stone pot was bubbling.

Cone's new partner, Ling, who was beside the stone pot, was looking at the fire. Seeing Ye Xi woke up, he smiled and said, "Wake up, come and drink some broth!" He slowly scooped out a large bowl with a wooden spoon.

Ye Xi lifted the animal skin blanket covering his body and walked over to take the broth with both hands.

At this time, only Cone was still sleeping soundly in the room, and no one else was in the room.

Jiaojiao's huge body was originally entrenched next to Ye Xi, and he was still sleeping with his eyes closed. When Ye Xi woke up, he also opened his scarlet eyes, slowly moved his body and climbed to Ye Xi's side, and rubbed Ye Xi with his huge snake head. Xi.

Ye Xi smiled and patted its head: "Look at how much space you occupy in the room, we're going to sleep together."

Jiaojiao spat out a snake letter.

Ye Xi slowly drank the broth from the bowl.

This wooden bowl is a special bowl for totem warriors. It is said to be a bowl, but in fact, it is almost as big as a washbasin.

Because the totem warriors have a large appetite, they have to serve at least seven or eight times in ordinary people's bowls, which is too troublesome, so they simply make them bigger.

After drinking the broth, Ye Xi returned the wooden bowl to Ling: "Is there any food for Jiaojiao, and also, where have the others gone?"

"You'd better not feed Jiaojiao now."

A sleepy voice sounded behind itself.

Ye Xi turned around, and it turned out that Cone woke up.

After Cone stretched, a carp got up from the ground: "Everyone else has gone to the foot of the mountain."

As he spoke, he walked over to Ling, and after kissing his partner vigorously, he took the broth she had prepared for him.

Ye Xi raised his eyebrows lightly: "At the foot of the mountain... Is there something coming with the water? Or food that we can kill?"

Cone rolled his eyes and shouted, "Can't I say you're stupid, so that I can stay a little mysterious?"

Now the rain is spreading on the ground, and most of the creatures migrate to other places, or hide on the top of the mountain. Besides aquatic creatures, how can there be anything else at the foot of the mountain?

Of course, so many people went down, it may also be because a big guy broke in.

But looking at their unhurried looks, obviously not, so the answer must be food.

On the other side, Ling snickered, feeling that sometimes her partner really looks like a childish child.

Cone gulped down the broth, wiped his mouth and said, "Let's go, take the animal skins and wrap your feet, we'll go too."
