The sky was gloomy and it started to snow again. Gao Ming propped his chin and looked out the window. Bujia Zhengmao has been walking for two days, should he be back today?
Da Huang, who had run away for two days, came back with Xiao Bai. The two dogs were covered in white snow and mud, with strands of hair mixed in. The originally beautiful Xiao Bai was also miserable. Rhubarb yelled at Gao Ming twice, coquettishly leaned on Gao Ming's lap and dawdled, Gao Ming rubbed Rhubarb's head in a daze, "It's so dirty that I don't know where to go to play, it's like this after two days of not seeing each other. I know when Bujia will come back..." When
Da Huang heard this, he bit Gao Ming's trouser leg and pulled it out.
"Where is this taking me?" Rhubarb has been clever since he was a child, and he seems to be able to understand human speech when he grows up. Gao Ming must have something to do when he sees Rhubarb pulling him out. Sure enough, Rhubarb let go of his trouser legs and yelled twice towards the sea.
"Won't something happen to Bujia and the others?" Gao Ming's voice trembled.
Rhubarb shook his head, and Xiaobai, who came here, pushed Gao Ming's leg with his nose, and let Gao Ming go forward. Gao Ming's heart lit up, and he instantly understood the meaning of the two dogs. He took a few steps forward, and saw Rows of small black shadows were moving on the snow-covered mountain, "Bujia them?!"
Big Huang Xiaobai all nodded and called out. Gao Ming heaved a sigh of relief, touched the head of Dahuang Xiaobai with a smile, and hurriedly boasted: "Bones will be rewarded tonight!" He turned his head and shouted into the cave: "Bujia and the others are back." There were
hurried voices and footsteps in the cave, After a while everyone came out, and Qi had a relaxed smile on her face, obviously worried about Bujia Zhengmao and the others these two days. Gao Ming asked Qi and Xiaohe to take the child back to the cave, and the shadows descended bit by bit. There was no need to come out to catch the cold. After he finished speaking, he had an impatient expression on his face, closed his cloak, turned his head, and headed up the mountain , Little Baolan Dasado followed closely behind.
The mountain was blocked by heavy snow, and the trail going up the mountain was roughly cleaned up by Bujia and the others two days ago. Only one person had a flat trail, and the snow on both sides is now half a meter deep. Gao Ming came out in a hurry, tightened his cloak, and put on the hood of the cloak to cover some cold air, while little Baolan Dasado and the other three wore hats and tied scarves.
Halfway through, I couldn't go on, the wind was mixed with snow, and it was getting bigger and bigger, and the path was very dangerous against the side of the mountain. The snow covered the mountain path, and it was easy to lose one foot. The wind blowing on the face was like It was cut on the face like a knife, Xiaobao held Gao Ming's hand to prevent him from going up, Gao Ming also knew the danger, Bujia and the others came back safely, nothing happened to him, otherwise Bujia would look for someone cry?
Gao Ming saw that the black shadow could already see the general appearance of the figure, and he was happy to get closer, but they went out with less than ten people, why did they come back so crowded?
"Little Baolan Dasado, do you think the number of people is a bit wrong?" Gao Ming was afraid that he was an outsider, and he was relieved when he released his mental power to confirm that the other party had no dangerous thoughts.
Landa Sado had the best eyes. After watching carefully for a while, Landa said: "Brother Zhengmao walked first, and the last one looks like my brother, and the faces in the middle are a bit strange..."
Soon Zhengmao's face The expression can also be seen clearly. Bujia, who was walking at the end, had good eyesight to see the Gao Mings guarding the trail, his eyebrows were furrowed, but he was still happy in his heart. Zhengmao was very happy to see Xiaobao coming to pick him up, and said to Bad Tooth showing off, "Did you see? Xiaobao is worried about me coming to pick me up." His steps were also faster, and when he arrived in front of Wen Xiaobao, he pretended With a deep expression on his face, "It's so cold to stand here, don't worry that nothing will happen to me, I still can't bear you, why are your hands so cold?" Touching Wen Xiaobao's hand and bringing it to his chest, Wen Xiaobao pulled his hand away, His face is gentle, he must be worried because he hasn't seen him for two days.
When Zhengmao saw it, he lost his true form in an instant, and approached Xiaobao like a laughing ruffian, and said lewdly, "I miss you too, let's go back to the cave first, it's dangerous here."
Wen Xiaobao was in the way of so many people I didn't do anything, I thought about talking about it tonight!
Bujia, who was walking at the end, was so impatient that he almost stepped forward to beat Zheng Mao who was dawdling! Fortunately, Wen Xiaobao also knew that Gao Ming was impatient, so he dragged Zhengmao down the mountain, and a row of people passed in front of Gao Ming. Gao Ming Landasado confirmed that there were indeed five strangers, but now was not the time to talk, At the end, Gao Ming saw that Bujia had no wounds, so he completely let go of his heart.
Bu Jia held Gao Ming's hand and went down the mountain step by step. No matter how much Gao Ming had to say, he couldn't say it when he saw Bu Jia at this moment.
At the entrance of the cave, Zhengmao was already distributing the seafood. Ten bamboo baskets full of them were dumped on the snow at the entrance of the cave, like a hill, and the hunters picked them up again by category. "These are half-framed in each hole, and this one is half-framed in each hole. Crabs seem to be picked up. Women who are pregnant with children should eat less. It's not good for children..."
With Xiaobao's help, they were quickly processed in a pile up.
The small river boiled hot water and was pouring water for the five people sitting under the shed. The five people sat on the floor, even if there were chairs beside them, no one would dare to sit. It can be seen that the skeleton is very big, and it must be very strong in summer. At the moment, the big man is holding the bamboo tube in his red, swollen and festering hands, as if he is not used to the temperature of the hot water, his fingers are trembling slightly, Xiaohe pretends to drink water, The five looked at each other, and the last one took a sip boldly and tremblingly, his eyes lit up instantly.
The hunters here have already gone down the mountain, leaving two bamboo baskets of seafood on the ground, Bad Tooth carried a basket on his back and walked back, just passing by the entrance of the cave, Ah Qi was not there, he must have gone down the mountain, this guy must be happy to see him back! The bad tooth cracked his mouth and smiled, and the crooked teeth looked cute.
Lin Zi boiled two large pots of boiling water, and Landa Sado moved out the large tub in the bathroom, half of the bucket was cold water and half was boiling water, and threw a few pieces of leather down. The pot head was cut off, the beard was shaved, and the five of them roughly washed it with hot water, and the bucket of water was darkened early.
Two pots were boiling again in the kitchen, and Gao Ming prepared two pots for Bujia Zhengmao alone, and the two of them scrubbed and scrubbed along the way back.
Wait for everyone to wash up before going into the hole. After entering the cave, it warmed up a lot, and the hair that had just been washed froze and melted in the cave. Landasado poured brown sugar water for the big guy, and Dashi Xiaobao buried the seafood in the box in the snow. The field also came back, Rhubarb and Xiaobai were lying on their stomachs by the stove, all dirty, Gao Ming didn't have the energy to care about whether Rhubarb was washing or not, so he turned his head and pretended not to see the black muddy water on Rhubarb and Xiaobai's body.
The five strangers looked at everything in the cave curiously and enviously. Their fingers were swollen and swollen from the cold. The hand holding the bamboo tube was a little shaking. They had never used such a small thing to drink water. The water was warm and sweet... ...
Gao Ming thought that Zhengmao was going to explain, but Bu Jia did not expect to speak first.
"They came from the big cave on the other side of the forest. There were originally a hundred people in the cave, but this time the snow season was too cold and food was scarce. After being attacked by prey, there were only 53 people left. The five of them came out to look for life. According to the leader of the cave A lot of women and children here have froze to death." Buga paused, and his voice was a little strange, "They didn't want to go to our tribe at first, after all, it's too far away. There were traces of cave dwellers, they went to look for them, but life in that cave was not easy, there were more than 80 cave dwellers left in the original 130, and many old people in the cave were kicked out."
"Then How do you know that you can find cavemen if you go in this direction?" Gao Ming subconsciously plotted.
The leader among the five was called Toutou, and Toutou put down the brown sugar water glass, his eyes were very sad, "We don't know if there is anyone here, the whole cave people have hope of survival, but they can stay in the cave, the whole cave people are snowing." After the season is over, there may be less than ten people left, and our food is gone, and we have been eating snow and grass roots and mud these days."
Gao Ming nodded without showing anything on the surface, but he was shocked in his heart.
Bujia suddenly held Gao Ming's hand, looked at Landa, and said, "The cave that the boss is looking for is the cave tribe that Landa and I used to belong to.
" up. At the beginning, there were people in the cave who kept them and Ah Mu, but it was Ah Ling who insisted on driving Ah Mu away. In the cave, Qiqi, Cuckoo and their Ah Mu took good care of him and his elder brother.
After dinner that night, the five people broke up, one strong and one weak lived in the bad tooth hole, and the remaining leader and the other two lived in the room opposite Xiaobao.
What Zhengmao means is that the tribe is in urgent need of manpower now. After the snow season, the city wall needs to be built. Their tribe does not have enough manpower to hunt, farm and build the wall every day. At that time, each Dong tribe had no extra food. If they accepted other Dong tribes, needless to say, the two Dong tribes would follow their tribe wholeheartedly. Of course, they would swear to the gods.
It is impossible to say that Bujia is not entangled. How could he not hate Ah Ling when he drove him and Landa Amu out, but there are many people who take care of them in the cave, especially when Amu is not in good health, Qi Qi'am even gave him his own food.
Landa also wanted to understand this level, but the leader didn't know the situation of Bujia's previous cave at all, and he didn't know whether Ah Ling was dead or not. The brothers Landa and Bujia thought about each other, and then they understood each other's thoughts.
Now they are members of the Mountain Tribe, and they can do whatever is beneficial to the tribe.
Bujia told Zheng Mao about his decision, and Zheng Mao found the leader early the next morning, explaining that their tribe could accept it, but they had to give up the Dong tribe and swear to the gods to belong to the Dashan tribe, and never betrayed in the future.
For the leader, food is the most precious thing. It doesn't matter where the people in the cave can survive, so he agreed very gratefully. People in this era advocate force, because force is good enough to be able to hunt and eat. In the final analysis, there is still a mother who has milk. The honor of the Dong clan is basically not strong. In the face of survival and food, these things will only be thought about when they are full. are redundant.
On that day, Zhengmao set off with more than 30 good hunters in the tribe carrying food and heads. Since he decided to send charcoal in the snow, it would be better to do things beautifully. If there is a sneak attack by prey along the way, how can the heads and the Dong tribe hunt with their hungry limbs weak? ? Escorting them safely is also for the sake of tribal development.
Bujia stayed in the tribe to deal with affairs, but Landa insisted on following, and Saduo naturally followed. Gao Ming was worried at first, but Ke Landa was an adult, and his face became more and more resolute. After thinking about it, Gao Ming swallowed the words of dissuasion go in.
As soon as Zheng Mao left with 30 people, there were only more than 40 real defensive men in the tribe. The school was temporarily closed, and Bu Jia went down the mountain and told him to stay in the cave and not to go out. Gao Ming looked at his yellow paper book and couldn't help but sighed. It's a matter of business. Let's talk about the laws and regulations in the tribe after the rest of the people settle down!
