The Rise of Primitive Tribes Farming

Chapter 45 Strange Voice
After hunting the giant wild boar, Chen Bei asked the hunting team to take the giant wild boar back.

"Leader, what about you? Aren't you going back to the tribe with us?" Yun asked suspiciously.

"I won't go back for the time being. We know very little about this forest, so I plan to take this opportunity to explore this forest and draw a map so that you can have a reference when you go hunting in the mountains. .”

"map?"

It was another new term, Yun had never listened to words, and the expression on his face was a bit dazed.

Chen Beidao: "That is, the whole mountain forest is shrunk down and painted on the animal skin, and the conspicuous and important things are marked. Even if you have never been to that place in the future, you can still know what is there according to the map."

"This is a good thing!" Yun's eyes lit up, obviously attracted by Chen Bei's description.

"Leader, why don't I go with you, and let them take the prey back. You go alone, and there is no one to help you."

Chen Bei thought for a while, and he didn't encounter any danger along the way, so he said: "Okay, then you explain to them and let them go back the same way."

Yun immediately explained to the members of the hunting team, telling them to bring the giant wild boar back the same way, without hunting or staying on the way, and returning directly to the tribe.

Under Chen Bei's guidance, the hunting team made two simple sleds, put the giant wild boar on them, and dragged them back.

And Chen Bei and Yun continued to move forward to explore this mountain forest.

"Crack..."

The two stepped on the snow with one deep foot and one shallow foot, leaving a series of footprints along the way, but these footprints will soon be covered by the continuous falling snowflakes, and will disappear without a trace in a short time.

In the winter forest, there are still many birds and beasts active. When the two of them were walking forward, they would occasionally encounter birds flying away in the trees, or wild animals on the ground running away immediately after seeing people.

In the evening, the two found a very shallow cave, only two or three meters deep, and there were no wild animals in it.

Chen Bei went into the cave to have a look and was very satisfied, so he said to Yun: "Spend the night here tonight, you can find some dry firewood to light the fire, and I'll go hunting."

"it is good."

Yun immediately looked for dry firewood nearby, as well as dry moss and other things, which were used to make a fire.

In heavy snow days, the firewood in the mountains and forests is actually drier than usual, because the water has been drained and solidified. Even the moss covered by snowflakes is very dry after shaking off the snow, which is very suitable for lighting fire.

Chen Bei took his own spear and looked for prey nearby. In the mountains and forests, he didn't want to eat barbecue jerky at night.

It is more satisfying to eat fresh meat grilled.

After Chen Bei became a totem warrior, his five senses became more acute. As long as he listened quietly, he could hear subtle sounds from far away.

He closed his eyes, listened carefully for a while, and found some movement on the left, so he walked to the left.

After walking about 500 meters, a wild animal appeared in front of it, with its head down, digging up the snow with its hooves, and eating the dry grass below.

The fur of this beast is khaki, and it looks like a deer, but it has no horns, a very short tail, and its two ears stand up from time to time, listening to the surrounding movement.

"It turned out to be a deer, which happened to be hunted for dinner."

Chen Bei quietly approached the deer, he did not throw the spear, because the spear would pierce the internal organs and affect the taste of the meat.

He tried his best to lower his body and reduce his sense of existence, so that he could almost merge with the forest, so as not to disturb the roe.

When he went around behind the deer, the deer was still unaware, still grazing with its head down.

"Whoosh!"

After the deer came into his attack range, Chen Bei held the stone knife in his hand, and rushed out instantly, his speed was extremely fast.

The deer panicked, and when it wanted to escape, it was too late, and the stone knife cut off its neck neatly.

Chen Bei wiped the blood off the stone knife with snow, then put it away, and prepared to walk back with a 30-jin deer in one hand.

"Moo!"

Suddenly, Chen Bei vaguely heard a strange beast roar, which gave him a familiar feeling, but it was not the cry of a bison.

When Chen Bei listened carefully, the cry stopped again, as if it was just his hallucination.

"Did you hear it wrong?"

Chen Bei listened for a while, and the voice did not sound again. Chen Bei shook his head and walked back with the deer.

When he returned to the cave, Yun had picked up a lot of firewood and lit a fire at the entrance of the cave. Inside the cave, a lot of moss was spread to insulate the cold ground so that he could sleep well at night.

"Clean up this deer and roast it for a while."

"Okay, chief."

Chen sat and rested beside the fire, while Yun handled the deer skillfully with a stone knife, and then pierced it with a stick.

Yun took out a small bag of salt and some spices from the animal skin bag that he carried, and spread them evenly on the deer, so that he didn't have to eat tasteless barbecue.

The practice of carrying salt and spices with you was also brought out by Chen Bei. Later, the hunting team ate it a few times, and learned to carry some salt and spices when hunting.

In winter, it gets dark very quickly. When the clouds clear, the sky is completely dark, and there is no moonlight. It is pitch black outside, and the sound of snow crushing branches can be heard from time to time.

Yun roasted the deer on the fire, and while roasting, he said, "Boss, I think we should come again after the snow melts. It's white everywhere now, and I can't see clearly in many places."

Chen Beidao: "The current exploration is mainly for hunting in winter. It's enough to get a rough look. You don't need to look at it in detail. But if you want to draw a good map, you should really come back after the snow melts."

The two sat around the fire, talking and eating barbecue meat. After one layer was cooked, they cut it off with a stone knife and ate it.

Soon, a whole roe went into the stomachs of the two of them, but they were only half full. In order to fill their stomachs, they roasted some jerky to eat.

Totem warriors consume a lot of food, and their appetites are not usually large.

The two discussed it again and took turns to watch the night, with Yun guarding the first half of the night and Chen Bei guarding the second half of the night.

Chen Bei lay on the ground paved with moss. The soft moss and the exhaustion of the day made him fall asleep quickly.

After falling asleep, Chen Bei had a dream. He dreamed of the totem god, and the totem god pointed him in a direction. There seemed to be a group of huge beasts in that direction, but in the dream he couldn't see clearly what the group of beasts looked like. look.

"Moo!"

In the middle of the night, Chen Bei was awakened by a faint cry, and he sat up suddenly, looking outside in surprise.

"Boss, you woke up so soon, you can actually sleep a little longer."

Yun thought that Chen Bei was having a nightmare.

"Yun, did you hear any strange sounds?" Chen Bei asked.

Yun shook his head and said, "I didn't hear any other strange noises. It's snowing outside and the wind is strong. Maybe the leader heard the wind?"

Chen Bei rubbed his temples, it was really windy outside, maybe he heard it wrong.

"Yun, I can't sleep anymore, go to sleep, I'll keep watch."

"Okay, the leader has worked hard."

Yun entered the stone cave and lay down. The soft moss and the warm firelight made him fall asleep soon.

Chen Bei sat by the fire all night, but he didn't hear any strange sounds until dawn. He wondered: Could it be that he heard it wrong?
