Chapter 180 Hometown

"What to exchange?" Guaer was stunned for a moment.

Yesterday I saw that my friends had a few bone carvings that were very exquisitely carved in their hands. The other party was showing off in their small group. Guaer also wanted a wood carving. Compared with these, the wood carvings made by other people in the tribe were simply not on the same level.

I heard that it was exchanged with people from the long-distance team, Guaer went there to search, but couldn't find anyone, so he planned to find the tree first and then have someone carve a wooden carving.

Yes, Guaer does not like bone carvings, followed by stone carvings. Compared with stone carvings, Guaer wants more wood carvings. Stone carvings are too easy to break, and his grandfather also carved things for him back then. The carvings are naturally very ordinary stones, and they accidentally get lost and broken. In comparison, several wood carvings are still good now. Even though many people think that wood carvings are more fragile than stone carvings, he still prefers wood carvings.

Today, Guaer took advantage of his father's patrol and followed him with tricks. He also asked his father to cut a piece of tree stump for him and dragged it back. Unexpectedly, he would meet Shao Xuan here.

When Guaer went to the long journey team to find someone, she carefully asked about Shao Xuan's appearance characteristics. She just doubted it just now, but now she was confirmed, so she was naturally very happy. However, Shao Xuan's question stopped him again.

Yes, the people in the Far Traveler team need to be exchanged for things. These people are not from his family and will not make things for free.

What to exchange for?

If sheep, cow, were dragged out and replaced, would you be beaten by my mother when you go back? After the beating, my father would be beaten...

I haven't thought about this before, but now when I think about it carefully, Guaer is a little hesitant, but he really wants a wood carving like that, which is better than his grandfather's carving. Unfortunately, whether it is his father or mother, he will never exchange things for a wood carving or stone carving. They think it is not worth it and not cost-effective. This is also the reason why Guaer envies his friends very much.

Guaer couldn't think of a way, and was anxious, afraid that Shao Xuan would refuse. She grabbed her hair and opened her mouth several times, but she didn't know what to say.

"Let's do this," Shao Xuan said when the other party was struggling: "You promise me something, and I will carve it for you in the best of my ability."

"What's the matter?" Guaer asked.

"He helps Lao He and the others in normal times, for example, don't let Xiao Anai be bullied by others. If Lao He's family has difficulties, you can help you with him within your ability. How about?" Anai is the name of Lao He's grandson. Guaer and others will not accept Anai, and Anai has been bullied a lot. Shao Xuan wanted to fight him back, but he was not easy to interfere in the war between the children. Besides, Lao He's family still needs to live here, and Feng Tribe is not the one who will definitely compromise if you are strong.

"this……"

"You don't even have this ability?"

"Of course this is OK!" Guaer said with her neck stammering.

From the chat with Lao Xuan, Shao Xuan also knew that Guaer's father had some ability in the tribe. As well, Guaer had a certain influence in his small group. If this kid had not made things difficult for him, if this kid could still help, Lao He's family would naturally be able to live better here until the Yanjiao tribe comes back.

Guaer didn't think what Shao Xuan said was difficult, but he was not too stupid. He knew that he was bargaining, "I agreed, but you have to carve well, you can't be worse than the bone carvings you exchanged for others before!"

"Can."

"I'm watching from the side. If I don't do it well, I won't agree!"

"OK."

During the trip, Shao Xuan polished several small stone knives with good stone quality. Those animal bones were not very hard. It was enough to use these small stone knives. It was naturally useful to carve wood.

Since Guaer said that he would be carved here, Shao Xuan had no place to move. The wood brought by Guaer was pretty good, with a fine texture and tough texture, and it was not easy to deform, so the carving effect should be better.

"What do you want to carve?" Shao Xuan asked.

"I want...well, I want..." Guaer thought about it carefully and said, "Wolf, I want a wolf!"

Compared to those animals that have never been seen, Guaer hopes to have a wolf wood carving. Wolves are very common on the grassland, and although the people of the Feng tribe also hunt wolves, they still have a little awe for wolves. If the wolves did not attack the tribe and did not take away their livestock, they would not attack the wolves.

"You want to be majestic, the leader wolf!" Guaer said with longing on his face.

Shao Xuan didn't quite understand the child's persistence against the wolf, but the old man next to him said the reason.

There is a story circulating in some tribes on the grassland. Of course, I don’t know which ancestor of which tribe was composed. It tells that a certain tribe is often attacked by wolves. The witch of that tribe predicts that the wolves will attack a warrior’s house, so he carved a wolf with a stone and placed it at the door of the warrior’s house. At night, when the wolves came over, they saw the stone sculpture and thought they saw the wolf king, so they frightened away.

Only those children believe in this kind of story. When they grow up, they no longer believe it. However, Guaer still believes in it deeply. However, he also knew that not everyone has the ability of the witch in the story, and not to mention that the wooden stake he brought back is not big, so naturally it cannot be compared with the wooden carvings in the story. He just wanted to satisfy such a wooden carving.

"Wolf..." The first thing Shao Xuan thought of was Caesar who was left in the tribe, and Caesar who was engraved and had the qualifications to be a leader wolf. Not only did he succeed in revenge, he could still fight against the ferocious beasts in the mountains. I don't know how far he has grown.

Recalling Caesar's appearance and his expression when hunting in the forest, Shao Xuan began to use his sword.

Guaer was thinking about learning some carving skills. Unexpectedly, the person in front of him moved the knife faster and faster. At first, he could still see the movement of each knife, and piece of wood chips were cut off, but soon, he could not keep up with Shao Xuan's speed. The only thing he could see was the wood chips that splashed like rain, which forced him to take several steps back.

Guaer wanted to ask some questions, but found that the sculptor in front of him seemed to be immersed in a certain state, making people unable to interfere.

Lao He grabbed some wood chips splashed on the ground with his hands and looked at Shao Xuan. He couldn't see clearly what Shao Xuan's arm movements were, but he could see clearly that the totem patterns on Shao Xuan's face was much clearer than his father's.

Carving a wood carving does not necessarily require the power of totem, but when Shao Xuan carries it seriously, he will naturally use it. The stone knives in his hand are not so easy. In order to more accurately carve the desired effect, strength, speed, etc., you need to control it well, without any mistakes. The fine and precise control that Shao Xuan practiced when learning to polish stone tools also made carving much easier.

The four people around couldn't help but stop what was in their hands and stared at Shao Xuan.

As the wood chips fell off quickly, the wood carvings in Shao Xuan's hand gradually took shape.

Guaer's breathing gradually became heavier. He had never seen anyone carving like this. At the same time, he also felt that this wood carving was what he wanted, even better than he thought.

When Shao Xuan stopped the knife in his hand, he held the stone sculpture in his other hand that had been formed but covered with wood chips and blew it.

The wood chips covered on the wood carvings flew up and left the wood carvings. Under the dazzling sunlight, it was like a handful of gold powder. The wood carving also revealed its true appearance.

It was a very strong wolf, which even allowed the viewer to feel the strong muscles covered by the fur. It stood there with its head held high, no grinding, no howling, and no sharp claws. It just stood there, slightly tilting its head, as if it was watching something unremarkable, with a power that was indescribable. It seemed that everything in front of it could not pass it, and could only retreat.

The wood carving is not big, it looks like a puppy, but it gives people a completely different feeling.

"Is this satisfying?" Shao Xuan asked Guaer with the wood carving in his hand.

"Full...satisfied!" Guaer excitedly reached out to catch it, carefully.

"So, do you still remember what you agreed before?" Shao Xuan asked again.

"What are you saying? Oh, remember, of course! Take care of Lao He and the others!" Seeing the wood carving in his hand, Guaer felt that this transaction was really satisfying.

"A word is expressed, it is hard to pursue."

"Uh?" Guaer was a little confused about Shao Xuan's words.

"That is to say, if you say this, you will be able to catch up with the four strongest horses in your tribe... and you can't take back your words. You must keep your promise." Shao Xuan explained briefly.

"certainly!"

Guaer now thought about taking the wood carving back quickly, but she didn't leave anymore, so she got up and left.

After Guaer left, Shao Xuan turned his head and met the eyes of Lao He's grandson Xiao Anai.

"Do you want a wood carving too?" Shao Xuan asked,

"Yeah!" Anai nodded heavily.

"What kind of thing do you want?"

"I want a wolf too!"

"No need," Shao Xuan rubbed the hair on Anai's head and said, "At that time, you will see the real body, and the living are much more majestic than that. Not only wolves, but also cave lions, and scared cranes with big heads, and many more..."

Shao Xuan and Lao He's family talked about tribal affairs and carved a totem with stones - double horns with flames.

Old man is old and has experienced too many things, countless setbacks and blows, ups and downs. Until now, although he is not as calm as Yan Shuo, he is much calmer than Yan Shuo. However, when he is usually able to hold a stone pick, he has been trembling while holding the small double-angle totem stone sculpture, and has not slowed down for a long time.

After a while, Lao He turned in one direction, carefully placed the stone sculpture in front of him, and then knelt down in the form of the Yanjiao tribe. Anai and Lao He's wife also knelt down.

After the kneeling and worshiping, the old man stood up.

"The tribe was in that direction, but later it left. I have never been there. I only knew that the old place was there. My father told me, and my father also learned from my grandfather, and passed down from generation to generation. They said that although the tribe left the old place, the roots were still there. If the tribe was still there, one day, the tribe would return to the old place again and ignite the fire.

Shao Xuan, you don’t have to look for the lost tribe members one by one. There are many tourists in the Yanjiao Tribe. There may be many people who don’t know where they belong, and there are also many people who don’t know the past and cannot see the future. However, when the fire is ignited again in the old place, all the tourists in the Yanjiao Tribe who are wandering everywhere can go home!" (To be continued...)
