Chronicles of Primordial Wars
Chapter 61: Take It Easy! Say something slowly!
Hunting team members waited at the entrance until the following afternoon.
It was supposed to leave by noon, but Mac and Langa all proposed to wait a little longer before the crowd continued to guard the entrance.
In fact, by this time, Langa, they were all hopeless, but still unhappy.
“Let's go, or we'll be delayed.” A soldier the same age as Mike looked at the sky and said.
They did not carry much food, the hunting harvest at the first position was stored, and when they rushed to the second position they brought only the right amount of food, and by now there were warrior beast leather bags empty.
According to the rules of the hunting team, no one leaves while waiting for a companion, even if the food is gone. This is another ceremony of mourning disguised to think about comrades, even if no one is alive or dead, rationally, everyone understands that the lost will not return.
Once out of the hole, it means giving up waiting, mourning is over, hunting begins, the nature is different and will not return to the hole unless the hunt returns.
To this day, some people on the team seem to have had enough. Shao Xuan is not a big character and has no place in the tribe. It doesn't take a few days to mourn. They have to start hunting quickly.
Mac looked at the sun that had begun to fall and greeted everyone ready to go.
Before leaving, the crowd lowered their heads slightly and one hand gently frowned. Every time someone leaves the hunting team, the other teammates perform such a simple memorial service.
“Let's go.” After mourning, Mac leaves the cave with people, ready to go to the other cave at the waist, which is their second stronghold.
Shao Xuan carried his "ancestors” on his back, carrying stone tools in his hand, and walked one step to the hole.
Shao Xuan did not feel uncomfortable seeing the light again after such a long time in a dark environment.
He has heard birds cry insects outside the hole and his mood rises in a straight line.
The hole is narrower, much narrower than the hole at the waist of the mountain that was previously walked. It may have been as big as the other holes a long time ago, but now the hole is blocked by some large stones falling from the mountain, and it has been blocked by vines for a long time.
Near the surface, this mountain, like any other mountain, doesn't see anything special, there are grass streams, only deep inside the mountain is different from other mountains. So, like the other mountains, there are all sorts of flowerworm groves, and the names of the former heads of the hunting squads carved on the walls of the caves that used to go into the entrance to the tunnels still exist, and they don't disappear.
At the entrance, Shao Xuan listened carefully to the outside, looked through the gap between the vines outside the hole, and did not find any dangerous creatures, so he carefully opened the vine and walked out. When you leave, be careful not to let the “man” behind you hit the stone. This is what happens to the “man", I don't know if it will crack.
Feeling the less intense sunshine, Shao Xuan felt as if he had been reborn again. If the environment did not allow it, he really wanted to yell out.
I was used to looking at the skeleton before, I didn't feel terrible, now I turn my head and see the four dry corpses... Shao Xuanqiang calmed down and hypnotized herself: OK, this is the ancestor, the ancestor of the tribe, even if it is dead, dry, grey, it is also unusual!
Nor did he immediately throw the four “people" behind him. The baby is still there. Shao Xuan intends to lend his ancestors shelter before joining the hunting team.
Shao Xuan doesn't know where this is, but he looks up at the mountain and looks at the shadows that are flying in the distant sky. He feels that it should still be there, and that he has reached the other side of the mountain and is still at the foot of the mountain.
He can't just barge around like this, he doesn't know anything about it, he can't fight the beasts, and he has to be careful not to get caught by the big birds in the air, he has to try to contact the hunting team first.
Dropped his head and looked. All the leather pants on his body were covered in gray stone powder, as well as on his hands.
I rubbed my hand and scrubbed the stone powder off my hand. I was going to scrape the leaves from the vine next to me to wipe my hand. Think about it, or give up. Shao Xuan doesn't know if this vine is toxic to people.
After wiping his hands, Shao Xuanqiu put his fingers in his mouth and blew a whistle with a specific rhythm.
It's not possible to scream out loud here, because that would provoke some creatures, so Shao Xuan still uses the old method used by the hunting team. When he blew it, Shao Xuan also thought about going back to make his own deer whistle for hunting later.
The hunting team, who were already walking towards the second position, had a pause, especially the Buckwheat couple and the intermediate Totem fighters, who had a better hearing than the junior Totem fighters, who heard a blurry voice but could clearly capture it.
“Mai! That's...” The buckwheat pulled the ram excitedly.
Mak showed her a little restlessness, listened carefully, sounded a little far apart, but was still able to identify it was the hunting team's signal, and the whistle would be blown in the team, seemingly only Xuan!
However, they had just left the hole, and the whistle came not from the hole, but from below the hill...
“You wait here first!” Mac rushed down the hill, several landings and disappeared into the bushes.
“Is it really Xuan?” Langa surprised. He didn't hear it very clearly, but when the thorny black wind happened, he heard it before he found his two children.
“Impossible, the ancestors couldn't get out, how could Xuan do it?!” A soldier said. He didn't want Shao Xuan to come back, he just didn't believe in Shao Xuan's ability to worship his ancestors.
“But it sounded just like the last time we looked for him!” Ang said.
I can't bear to think that Shao Xuan is still alive.
It's not just Langa, it's everybody else who's eager to know the answer.
“Go check it out! ”
“Yeah, go check it out. As long as we don't get out of the mountain, we won't be able to get to the cave again later. ”
“I want to go too! ”
Generally speaking, the hunting team folks follow the rules, listen to the boss, the boss makes them wait for them to do it, but the situation is different, since this hunting route has opened up so far, almost no one can get out of it successfully after they disappear! Something even the ancestors couldn't do!
Several intermediate Totem fighters negotiated and unanimously decided to follow suit.
So the rest of the hunting team followed suit after Mac ran that way.
Mike followed the sound and saw a grey man standing there.
At first, Mai did not pay attention to the object Shao Xuan was carrying, nor did he look closely at the stoneware Shao Xuan placed at his feet. At this moment, Mai's heart was shocked.
Even though he was covered in a layer of gray stone powder, Shao Xuan was still a child, and the small body plate knew who it was.
“Xuan, you're all right!” The hunting team that followed us arrived and recognized Shao Xuan.
Langa also quickly approached and prepared a soldier's hug to celebrate Shao Xuan's escape. After seeing what was behind Shao Xuan's back, he stumbled down the tunnel: “Xuan... behind you... what is behind you? ”
The sights of the people were all concentrated on Shao Xuan's back.
“Ah,” Shao Xuan turned around so that everyone could better look at the person behind him, pointing to the finger, "said the ancestor. ”
But Shao Xuan still underestimated the weight of the word "ancestors” in the hearts and minds of the tribe.
Speaking of the word "ancestors”, Shao Xuan found the hunting team as if they were settled. They stood there, but their eyes turned red, they breathed quickly and they were heavy, their facial muscles twitched, they all seemed a little twisted, and they trembled all over.
Everyone was normal, and now none of them are right.
“Wait, don't get excited! Say something slowly!! ”
