through primitive society

Chapter 927 Return (2)
Now they finally realize that they have no territory to be proud of.

Wu Xiyue nodded, as if she heard it.He didn't speak, just walked over, even his eyes were so stingy to give alms.

She didn't speak, and she didn't look at them, which made Abile's eyes darken a lot.The remaining Misso people have been living carefully, for fear that if they do not do the right thing, they will anger the wizard Yue.

At that time, they thought it would be a terrible thing for Wizard Yue to get angry, but now...they knew that being left out was also a terrible thing.

The dim-eyed Abenla quickly disappeared from the valley until they were no longer in sight. Yangmu looked pitiful and sighed: "They are much more honest than before."

"Hey, you just see that they are honest now, and don't think about how they treated our Cangcuo tribe in the past." Naya sneered, although she had long since forgiven these Misuo people who worked hard in the tribe, But it is still difficult to make her laugh with them.

The three of Aili and the others never knew about the problem between Abile and the wizard Yue, and they remained silent on this topic.

"Aren't you going? Are you really going to spend the night in the stone mountain?" Wu Xiyue said lightly, her black eyes as clear as water were full of satisfaction with Abenla and the others.

After being neglected for half a year, and then making them work hard for half a year, let alone quite fruitful.At least, there is no arrogance in their eyes when they met for the first time.

Sang Rila, a woman of the really white-eyed type, is also much more honest, and she no longer dares to approach her from time to time, or go to Hada...to intercede.

Everything is going in the expected direction.

After walking for more than an hour, I arrived at Stone Mountain. There was no need to go to the top of the mountain, and there was everything she needed directly at the foot of the mountain.There are still some trees at the foot of the mountain that are not dead, and what Wu Xiyue is looking for is this kind of tree that is not very tall, with leaves shaped like cattail leaves and clustered at the end of the stem.

It is generally called tree palm, and some old people are also called mountain palm.

Palm trees grow in many places in Tianchao, but she needs to cut off the outer palm leaves of the palm trees, and then use grass and vines to spread them on the beams of the house as a roof.

The fiber of mountain palm is very tough and durable, unlike the roof made of hay, which needs to be replaced soon after being exposed to wind and sun.It is not a problem to use mountain palm as a roof...it should be replaced every six months or more.

Under her demonstration, the women quickly learned how to peel off the brown clothes.

"Yue, what do we use these things for?" Caiman pulled the mesh fibers on the palm leaves, thinking that it would break with just a simple pull, but it didn't break after several pulls.Can these be used for sewing animal hides?
Wu Xiyue was stained by the spider webs attached to the palm leaves. While carefully pinching the spider webs away, Wu Xiyue answered, "This is called brown clothes. When we go back, we will weave these brown clothes with straw and rattan and put them on the house. For the roof."

"There are many houses in the tribe, and the roofs that were replaced last time have begun to weather again. I used brown clothes and animal skins as roofs." The back of the hand was itchy, and the spider web was still slightly poisonous.Wu Xiyue rubbed it a few times and reminded the women: "Be careful, don't let the spider webs on the brown clothes get on your body."

Dole smiled and said, "We're not afraid, Yue, you have to be careful yourself."

Amidst the laughter, they had already peeled off dozens of brown clothes.There are so many palm trees on the stone mountain, Wu Xiyue finished cutting that day, and the men carried them back the next day.

For ten days in a row, the women walked back and forth between the tribe and the stone mountain, and soon cut off the palm leaves of the palm trees on the entire stone mountain.

In the next few days, the women sat in the house to weave brown clothes.

After the short-term panic caused by the winter without snow, the people are now used to the winter without snow.There was no rain at all, let alone snow.

Naya flattened the brown clothes, and said to Wu Xiyue: "If it still rains like before, I think these brown clothes can be used as a tool to cover the rain."

Hey, she really hit the spot.Brown clothes were used in many mountain villages in the Chinese dynasty, especially in the era when there were no raincoats, brown clothes were woven into coir raincoats, which were the best for rain protection.

Wu Xiyue and Yang Mu moved a piece of knitted brown clothes to the wooden frame, and heard Yang Mu frowned and said, "It's so heavy."

"It's relatively heavy. It's good to be heavy. It's tighter. The wind is too strong at night, so you won't be afraid of getting sick if you use them." The weather is getting weirder and weirder now. As soon as it gets dark, the temperature plummets; It's so hot that you just want to soak in the water, and it's too hot to be surrounded by grass and vines. After nightfall, you must wear a piece of animal skin on your body.

In the middle of the night, you can't sleep in a piece of animal skin, you have to cover it with a piece of animal skin.The extreme temperature difference made it difficult for the clansmen to adapt to it for a long time, and even the men who were as strong as cows also suffered from many colds.

The Muba tribe even sent a few unconscious women to come for treatment.

After hearing this, Yang Mu felt that this was the truth, and she smiled and said, "That's true, Yue you..." She swallowed the following words, seeing Wu Xiyue returning to Naya and saying, "It can indeed be used as a tool to prevent rain. , but you don’t need it now, maybe you can use it later.”

"The top of this thing is very hard, but the bottom is soft, how can it be made into a rainproof thing?" Yangmu interjected. If it can be made into a rainproof tool, wouldn't it add useful things to the tribe that can be exchanged for items? .

Now, the women in the Cangcuo tribe are very refined. Later, some people said that the matrilineal society started with the women of the Cangcuo tribe.

There is nothing wrong with that.

Wu Xiyue narrowed her eyes and replied, "It can be made into a coir raincoat. I don't know how to do it, but I can try it. It's a pity that it's not raining now. Otherwise, we can use the coir raincoat to exchange for food and animal skins for the tribe. "

The few women who were constantly working in their hands laughed when they heard this.

Ayili said: "Our pottery has been exchanged for many things, and the animal skins sent by the Muba tribe have filled the whole house."

"Yesterday, I saw Kuang bringing a few men back with a lot of limestone, saying that all the lime powder fired before was used to tan the animal skins. The animal skins sent by the Muba tribe were not tanned last time. system."

The Cangcuo tribe no longer has to worry about the lack of animal skins. With the nitration of lime powder, and after half a year of continuous improvement, it is not a problem for the current animal skins to be stored for a few years.

Under Wu Xiyue's affirmation, no one in the clan calls lime powder "divine powder" any more.

"Well, I used to worry about too few animal skins, but now there are too many animal skins to use." Naya looked helpless, feeling quite emotional, "You guys don't know how poor the Cangcuo tribe was before. In winter, some members of the tribe may die from the cold.”

"Now, there are so many animal skins that they can be used as roofs. They can also be hung on the windows to keep out the wind at night, and even the door panels are nailed with animal skins."

Wu Xiyue thought of when she first came to the Cangcuo tribe, and now that she couldn't understand the Mohe language and could only be a fake mute, Naya thought she was sick and wanted to exchange a pig's head from the tribe for herbal medicine.

The Cangcuo tribe at that time was indeed very poor.

"I still want to do what I used to do, but now it's fine." Caiman said with a restrained voice, and she also thought of the hardships she suffered in Bubu Mountain.Anyway, Naya is much happier than her, Gesang.

Wu Xiyue immediately noticed that she was a little depressed, and quickly joked: "You guys, don't be fooled by Naya, this guy is used to domineering in the tribe..."

The voice of Fahe came from outside the house, "Yue, come out quickly, come out quickly..." He was running over, his voice was very hurried, as if something serious had happened.

The women all stopped working, and Mai Nuer, who was closest to the door, hurried out, "What happened, why did you run in such a hurry."

"There are some strangers in the tribe, so let me tell Yue to pass quickly. Is Yue in there?" Fahe, who hadn't come in yet, asked outside. At this time, he heard the most familiar voice from inside the room. the sound of.

Wu Xiyue said: "Which tribe is the stranger from?" While speaking, he had already walked out of the room.

Seeing her come out with a big smile on Fahe's face, he said: "It's not a bad thing, I can't explain it clearly; Yue, you'll know when you go there." melt.

The women present immediately relaxed when they heard this, Naya rolled his eyes at him, and said viciously: "It's a good thing, you can yell, we are timid, don't scare me, okay?"

Fahe: "..." Are you still timid?It is clearly the same as men!I dare not say this, because if I say it, I will be beaten by all the women.

The house for storing tribal supplies is relatively hidden. It was rebuilt under Wu Xiyue's order after returning from the stone forest, in case the drought caused riots and the stored food or other useful things were stolen.

Wu Xiyue followed Fahe around, and then went back to the house at the foot of the mountain, and walked through a small detour covered by various stones to the house that was usually used to entertain the tribes.

"They're not in the house, but on the front lawn." Fahe reminded in time.

Wu Xiyue asked: "Is it a tribe who has never been to the tribe?" Only tribesmen who have never been to the tribe will be brought to the lawn outside.

People from the two tribes of Muba and Yamo would come directly to this house.

Fahe laughed, "These people, do you think they are brave, and think they are quite timid. Hey, it's really hard to say about them, Yue, you will know what I mean when you go to see them. A group of timid And the brave clansman, very special existence."

"Aren't they members of several tribes?" Wu Xiyue became suspicious when she heard the confusion.

Fahe shook his head, "Not any of the five tribes."

In front is the lawn, a lawn with a very large banyan tree, which is also the place where the Cangcuo tribe usually uses fire to barbecue.

Hada's hearty laughter and Gui A's hearty laughter could be heard from a long distance away.

It doesn't look like a stranger coming, but rather like a friend I haven't seen for a long time.

"You're finally back. I don't know how long you've been away since you left. We all thought there was no way for you to come back." It was Gui A's voice.
