The Rise of Primitive Tribes Farming

Chapter 6 Fishing
It was completely dark, and more than 100 people hid in the wall made of big trees, eating barbecue around the campfire.

As the leader, Chen Bei's privilege is to eat the heart and brain of the wild boar.

These two things are the most nutritious in wild boars, Chen Bei will not be polite, he is exhausted today and needs a lot of energy.

"Boss, can I sit next to you?"

A young man walked over cautiously, holding a meaty bone in his hand. Due to the lack of fat, the meat on the bone was roasted black.

Chen Bei noticed that this boy was the one who shouted "The leader is mighty" in the crowd during the day, and he almost thought it was a trick at the time.

It was later discovered that this teenager was probably his first admirer.

"of course can."

Chen Bei readily agreed. As the leader of the new tribe, he needs a confidant in the tribe who is completely loyal to him, and this young man has the potential to be a confidant.

"Thank you chief."

The young man happily sat next to Chen Bei, but he didn't dare to sit too close and kept a certain distance.

"What's your name? How old are you?" Chen Bei asked.

"My name is Ya, and I'm 12 years old."

Chen Bei noticed that on the neck of this young man named "Ya", there was a light yellow animal tooth, about three inches long, similar to a canine tooth, obviously it was the tooth of some kind of ferocious beast.

Tribal people don't pay much attention to choosing names. They choose whatever they think of. It is estimated that Ya's parents probably chose this name for him because of this animal tooth.

"Boss, what are we going to do tomorrow?" Ya said while gnawing on the meat on the bone.

"Tomorrow, some people will build wooden houses, some people will gather wild vegetables and fruits, and they will also fish."

"Is it spearing fish in the river?"

Chen Bei shook his head and said with a smile: "No, how many fish can be speared with a spear, you will know tomorrow."

Tribal people also occasionally fish, Chen Bei has seen it, but they don't know how to fish, let alone catch fish, and they don't even have a decent harpoon.

Maybe there are people in the tribes outside the mountains who can fish, but in the mountains and forests, what Chenbei sees the most is that the tribesmen use spears to spear fish in the creek, which is very inefficient.

"Boss, can I go fishing with you?"

Ya looked at Chen Bei with great anticipation. He was only 12 years old, and he was very curious, so he was naturally eager to get in touch with new things.

"Okay, I'll take you with me tomorrow."

"Great, thank you leader."

Ya was so excited that he was about to jump up. Being able to go fishing with the leader, and talking about it, made those teenagers of his age envious.

The two chatted while eating, and soon, their teeth gnawed away the meat on the meaty bone, and gnawed it clean.

Then, he smashed both ends of the bone open with stones, sucked out the bone marrow that could be sucked out with his mouth and ate it, and then used a small wooden stick to poke out the bone marrow that could not be sucked out and then ate it.

This way of eating is very common in tribes, they will not waste any edible food.

Time passed quickly, and the night passed without any danger.

Early the next morning, half of the Mang tribe was busy building wooden houses.

The wooden house they built was very simple, that is, three pieces of wood were tied with rattan to form a triangular frame, and then covered with bark, thatch and other coverings on three sides, leaving a door on the front.

Because it is simple, does not choose materials, and there are many people and strong strength, they can build all the wooden houses that everyone lives in in just one day.

Such a wooden house, Chen Bei actually prefers to call it a temporary shelter, it is just a stopgap measure, and a better house will definitely be built in the future.

Chen Bei did not participate in the construction of the wooden house, he has a more important task - that is to find food.

He first organized the women and children in the tribe to collect wild vegetables and fruits in a safe place, and then took the rest to go fishing.

Ya got his wish and followed the fishing team.

Chen Bei didn't rashly take them to the river to fish, because there are many unknown dangers in the river, he chose to let them practice in the creek first.

Because it has never been caught before, there are actually a lot of fish in the creek, so fishing for a period of time is not a problem.

"This thing is called a fishhook. It can be made of branches, thorns, or bones. It doesn't matter what material it is. The most important thing is that it is strong and sharp."

What Chen Bei held in his hand was a fishhook made of bone, about an inch long. Last night he found a small bone in the shape of a hook, which was sharpened on a stone.

He showed everyone the hook to remember the shape.

Chen Bei took out another piece of animal skin cut into thin strips, used it as a rope, and tied it to the bone fishhook.

Immediately afterwards, he found another dry branch as a float, and tied it to a rope, and finally found a strong wooden stick as a fishing rod.

A very rough and primitive fishing rod, which will be disgusted by later generations of fishing enthusiasts, was born.

This inexperienced primitive fishing team consisted of more than 30 people, all of whom were stunned. They had never seen this kind of thing and did not know how to use it.

Chen Bei held a rough fishing rod and said, "Someone find me a worm, it must be big enough to fit on this fishing hook."

"I'll go!" Ya volunteered to find the bug.

Not long after, Ya really found a fat worm the size of a thumb.

Chen Bei threaded the worm into the hook, then threw it into the water, and started fishing.

"The water is very dangerous, I believe you all know it, especially in the river, there are many big fish that can eat people, so, you all remember one thing for me!"

Chen Bei's face became serious, he looked at everyone, and said word by word: "You must never go fishing in the water!"

Chen Bei knew very well that there must be a large number of terrifying fish hidden in this extremely primitive water area, as well as various unseen and huge water animals.

Once in the water, there is a high probability that it will be eaten.

"Don't worry, leader, we will not go into the water." Ya promised, patted his chest.

Everyone nodded like chickens pecking at rice, promising not to go into the water.

As a good trustee, someone like Ya can respond to Chen Bei's words in a timely manner.Especially since he didn't realize that he looked like a Tor, so there was no trace of him.

Chen Bei nodded in satisfaction, pointed to the fishing rod, and said, "Although we don't go into the water, we can still catch fish with tools."

"Okay, I'm done talking, from now on, everyone don't talk, so as not to scare the fish away."

Everyone fell silent. In the water, the tenacious insects were still swinging slightly on the hook.

Sure enough, the smell of bugs attracted a lot of fish, and these fish were not small in size.

Soon, a big fish swallowed the hook in one gulp, and the float on the water surface was pulled and sank immediately.

"Did you see it? It floats and sinks, which means the fish has already bit the hook, so pull it up immediately!"

"Whoa!"

Chen Bei said while lifting the fishing rod up, and soon, a big fish was pulled out of the water and fell to the shore, alive and kicking.

Chen Bei quickly caught it. This fish weighed about ten kilograms and was very strong, but Chen Bei was even stronger. He was an intermediate totem warrior.

He took the hook out of the fish's mouth, and found that the fish actually had dense teeth, very sharp, and it was obviously a carnivorous fish.

"Good guy, if this is bitten, a piece of meat will be bitten off."

Chen Bei reminded them again to pay attention to safety, and then asked ten of them to make the same fishing rod. As for the fishing rod in his hand, it was caught by Ya.

Ya got the fishing rod and was very excited. This is a fishing tool made by the leader himself, and it must be much better than others.

For the other 20 or so people, Chenbei taught them the craft of weaving fishing reels with rattan.

In his previous life, Chen Bei had learned to weave baskets from his grandfather when he was a child, so it was not difficult for him to weave fish baskets out of rattan.

After teaching it a few times, everyone basically knows it, and those who don't know how to make it up can learn it by watching the people next to them.

Reel fishing is easier than fishing, but the waiting time is slightly longer.

As for the more powerful net-weaving fishing, I'm sorry, Chen Bei doesn't know how to weave fishing nets. He can only find suitable materials and try to do it. Whether he can succeed or not depends on his luck.
