primitive survival evolution

Chapter 26 Bone Inscriptions
The white witch helped Mu to stand up, and Sakura who was next to him quickly handed the black wooden stick to Mu.

"Yan, you come with me, the others go out to collect."

"Um"

Bai Wu and Ying helped Mu back to the tribe, and Li Yan followed beside him.

They returned to the mouth of the tribe's cave.

So Tom ordered an old woman to light a wooden handle dipped in the fat of a doodle bird.

This cave is very deep, more than 20 meters deep. It is the place where Li Yan, Black and White Wu, and Mu live. At the same time, the innermost part is also a place to store food.

Because it is on the mountain, the cave is very dry and well ventilated, and it is filled with the fragrance of earth and the smell of medicinal herbs.

There are many murals on the walls of the cave, which were recorded by the Taka people. Li Yan would also come to appreciate these interesting original murals when he is bored.

Li Yan lives at the entrance of the cave, and he rarely goes inside.

The three-meter-wide cave is not narrow. The further you go into the cave, the more inclined it becomes.

The middle section is where the black witch lives.

The third section is where Baiwu and Sakura live.

The last section is the cave where Tom lives with several older women,

This cave has obviously been dug, with a size of [-] square meters. On one side are some stone beds made of stones and covered with hay and animal skins. There are also five grain tanks with a diameter of one meter. It is full of murals, some of which are very light in color and look old.

At the end of Mu's stone bed, there is a pile of flat bones, and some stones.

The light was a bit dim, and Li Yan couldn't help but use the power of Pangu to see the things in the cave. It turned out that the bones and stones were engraved with runes, and these runes should be the initial stage of the evolution of murals into characters.

Mu asked Bai Wu to take out three large flat bones from this pile of bones. These bones were half a square meter in size, and they were probably the shoulder bones of some giant beasts. People used them to make bone books for recording.

These bone books are very old, with a smooth surface, a little sallow on the top, blackened in some places, and a little brittle, it should be some years old.

"Yan, take it."

"Yes."

Li Yan held the three bone books.

Tom said again: "It's dark here, let's go outside the cave."

"OK."

Everyone walked out of the cave.

At this time, the adults of the tribe have all gone out to work, leaving some left-behind children in the tribe, and a few old people with their babies.

很静
You can hear the chirping of birds in the forest, the sound of grinding stones in the stone tool house, and the voice of Wen Ge educating the children from time to time.

Mu, Li Yan, Bai Wu, Ying, and an older woman came under the totem tree.

After the totem tree was nourished by the planting core, it became luxuriant within a few days, and even bloomed milky white buds.

Mu sat on the stone under the totem tree and asked Li Yan to put down the three bone books.

The surface of these bone books is engraved with bone inscriptions of different sizes, and some bone inscriptions are even a large picture.

Tom turned out a bone book.

Here is a group of people fighting against clouds of aerosol.

But Mu muttered: "The heaven and earth are chaotic like chickens, and Pangu was born in it. Eight thousand years old, the heaven and the earth opened up, the sun is clear and the sky is cloudy, and the turbidity is the earth. Pangu is in it, changing nine times a day. Earth. The sky is ten feet higher every day, the earth is ten feet thicker every day, and Pangu is ten feet longer every day. For eight thousand years, the number of days is extremely high, the number of earth is extremely deep, and Pangu is extremely long. When Pangu died, he transformed into all things.”

Tom picked up another bone book. On it was a woman with a human head and a snake body, and the woman was holding a small figure in her hand.

"The heaven and the earth were opened, but there were no people. Nuwa made people out of yellow earth."

At this moment, Li Yan understood that it turned out to be a fairy tale about Pangu creating the world and Nuwa creating man.

Then Mu took the third bone book, which engraved a monster with the head of a man and the body of a snake with eyes like copper bells!
Mu said: "The god of Zhongshan, the shadow of the candle, is regarded as day, closed as night, blown as winter, exhaled as summer, and rested as wind."

Candle Yin!

Today and month.
After Li Yan came to this world, he found that the only difference in this world is the sun and moon in the sky, and the positions of these two have never changed.

"Yan, you always asked me why I taught Ying how to learn bone inscriptions but not you. I will teach you bone inscriptions now. These three bone inscriptions are important fetishes passed down by the ancestor witches of the tribe. From now on, you and Ying Anyone can come to me to learn bone inscriptions."

Mu just saw that Li Yan made a distinction between men and women when he was repairing the toilet, especially the two words written by Li Yan were very weird, not as good as bone inscriptions at all.

Mu thought: Li Yan was very interested in writing, but couldn't learn bone inscriptions, so he scribbled some strange characters by himself.

Mu remembered that Li Yan had made a lot of contributions to the tribe these days, so she decided to break the tradition and pass on the precious original text to him.

If Li Yan knew Mu's true thoughts, he would definitely vomit blood.

Li Yan nodded: "Thank you, Mu, I will learn bone inscriptions from you when I have time."

In fact, Li Yan is very interested in the murals in the cave. The murals are about the history of the tribe. In this era of lack of spiritual material, it is very interesting to appreciate the original murals.

There are only about a hundred of those bone inscriptions coming and going. Li Yan thinks that he can finish learning the bone inscriptions quickly, and then he can read and understand the content on the murals, or he can teach the tribesmen after the tribe solves the food problem. Learn Chinese characters.

Seeing that Li Yan was looking at those bone books seriously, Mu nodded with satisfaction.

After a while.

Mu took out a rope full of knots, counted the knots on it, and said again: "Yan, tomorrow is the day of offering sacrifices to Zhuyin, and it is also an important day for tribal children to hold coming-of-age ceremonies. Go to Xishan to collect pottery. When the cans of black witch fruit and white witch fruit come back, our tribe will hold a sacrifice."

"Well, the tribe also needs a batch of stone materials. Just in time, I will arrange some people to go there together." Li Yan nodded.

After bidding farewell to Mu, Li Yan ran to the stone tool shed.

"Ge, we are going to collect stones, you prepare."

When Wen Ge heard this, he shook his head excitedly.

"Patriarch, we're going too." Big Mao at the millstone shouted.

"Patriarch, we want to know where these stones are collected from, take us there." A child echoed.

Wen Gelian said with a stern face: "It's very dangerous outside. You are not yet adults, so you can't go far away casually. Be careful that the fierce birds in the sky will eat you up."

"Okay, okay, you guys will follow along." Li Yan said.

"Patriarch, this." Wen Ge looked at Li Yan suspiciously.

"It's okay, the sacrifice will be held tomorrow, and we still have to collect witch fruits. There will be many adults going together, don't be afraid." Li Yan said.

"OK then."

Wen Ge yelled at the child again: "Remember, you have to follow the collection team outside, and you can't run far, do you understand?"

"Yeah." The children all nodded.

after lunch,
Li Yan set off with five men, five women, Wen Ge, and ten children, three of whom will attend the coming-of-age ceremony tomorrow.

Xishan is on the west side of the valley, which is next to the waterfall.
