Chapter 54
When he heard the Wu tribe visiting, Xu Chen also brought a group of men who were cleaning the foundation to watch the fun.
After traveling for more than two months, he had never seen any humanoid creature except wild animals except for wild animals.
Of course, the group of monkeys on the mountain do not count.
After the visit to the kiln factory, Feng and others carried the wolves corpses and took the Wu people up the mountain to visit Muba.
Just in case of an accident, Xu Chen also finished work early and took a group of people to the mountain.
Eighteen people came to the other party, which was already more than all the adult men in the tribe. Moreover, in terms of age and body shape, they were all a group of young and strong hunters. Once they became malicious on the mountain, the Ba people would probably suffer heavy losses.
Of course, this possibility is very small, but you have to be careful.
Because there are only a group of elderly, weak, women and children on the mountain, these people who are still in the primitive era have not yet subsided, and eating raw meat and drinking blood is still the norm. When there is no food, killing foreign races as food is not uncommon, because even when humans evolved into the feudal period, killing wives and treating guests, changing children to eat each other is common, and there are many records in history books.
The two-legged sheep in the Five Barbarians invaded China and the vegetable in the prosperous Tang Dynasty. The situation of people eating people is even more terrifying.
The most famous record is that An Lushan rebelled and besieged Suiyang. After eating all the food, grass, war horses, mice, cats and dogs, Zhang Xun, the city guard, killed his concubines in public and distributed them to the generals to eat. Thus, he let go of the cannibal demons. Suiyang has a population of 60,000, and in the end, only a few hundred people were left.
Therefore, even if these foreigners seem harmless and are afraid of the changes in the Ba people, their barbaric nature may lead to their madness due to fear.
Fortunately, the Wu people were very respectful and careful after going up the mountain. They were shocked and excited about the stone walls built at the entrance of the cave, the stovetops of the fire, and the wells made of pottery bricks. They even got permission from Muba and went into the cave to visit the stone cellar for storing grain.
What excited and excited the group of people the most was the twine and fabric that a group of women were weaving.
This complex and sophisticated artificial manufacturing process completely shocked the group of primitive savages and their minds were full of blood, and their heads were buzzing.
The Ba people use some of the most common threads and cloths made of tree bark to make such thin, flat and strange clothes that everyone wears.
This kind of clothing covers the whole body, tops, skirts, or tops, underwear, and underpants.
After wearing this kind of clothing, the Ba people looked clean, tidy and full of energy. As with them, they were wearing only dirty fur skirts and casually wrapped in animal skins, they were completely people from different worlds.
I feel ashamed of myself.
This is the collective consciousness of a group of people from the Wu tribe after visiting the kiln factory and cave at the foot of the mountain.
Even amid the laughter of some young women in the Ba tribe, they felt ashamed as if they were stripped naked.
Of course, today the Ba tribe hunters returned home with a full load and caught a total of seven adult wild wolves, which also required a big celebration.
This is not only the largest hunting harvest ever made by the tribe, but also kills one-third of the wolves that occupy the river outside the valley entrance, opening a passage for the tribe's outward expansion.
The total number of these wild wolves is only more than twenty. With such a large loss, coupled with fright and fear, they should soon give up the valley estuary and migrate downstream.
And today's great victory actually has a lot to do with the sudden appearance of a group of Wu tribe hunters.
If this group of people hadn't suddenly blocked the wolf's way, Feng and others would have been able to kill four at most, which was their biggest goal at the beginning.
Therefore, in order to express gratitude and the hospitality of the Ba people, after returning to the mountain, a group of men began to slaughter wild wolves, and a group of women also started cooking rice and stewed meat.
As several pots and pots on the stove began to buzz and keep steaming, the rich aroma of food also spread across the mountainside.
Because there are too many people and there is obviously not enough stew, the two wolves are smoked and roasted on the fire pit.
This rotatable grill was specially invented by Xu Chen.
The grill has been installed when building the fire pit. You only need to plug in a few pieces of wood to fix it.
Although the grill is simple in structure and the grilling method is primitive and barbaric, a group of hunters from the U tribe were also shocked by this strange structure. They surrounded the fire pit and excitedly helped turn the grill to experience the joy of this rotation. The rattle of laughter shocked the mountains and forests.
After the two tribes held a grand wolf meat party, the Wu tribes left and left after eating and drinking before dark.
Before leaving, Moba not only gave them a lot of the remaining roasted wolf meat, but also gave them a few simple pottery and a pair of straw sandals at the request of the leader, and also gave a piece of cloth. However, Moba refused the request for the bow and arrow.
Although the Wu tribe is the mother of the Ba tribe and Mo Ba respects it very much, she also knows that bows and arrows are the most important reliance for the tribe's strength.
The Wu tribe often bullies the weak tribes around them. If they learn to make bows and arrows, many small tribes will have no room for survival.
A group of Wu people hurried down the mountain with a lot of food and drink with awe and regret. The cave quickly calmed down. A group of women packed up the messy wolf bones and pots and pans, and continued to spin and weave cloth. The men were extremely excited and excited because of a big victory today. They gathered outside the cave while organizing and making bow and arrow weapons, and laughing loudly and talking about bragging.
Today, the victory will be enough to shock all nearby tribes until the Wu people spread the news.
In ten days, the Witch Lord Conference will be held.
The five nearby tribes will go to the conference, and only the most powerful and bravest warriors can receive the blessings of the witch master.
The Ba tribe has not received the blessings of the witch for many years.
Therefore, Feng and others decided to re-made new bows and arrows and train their skills hard. At that time, they made a big splash at the Witch Lord Conference, which completely scared all tribes, including the Wu tribe. Once they succeeded in their power, they could attract more men from other tribes to join the Ba tribe.
If the Ba tribe had fifty archers, Feng believed that no other tribe would dare to discriminate or provoke the Ba tribe.
Feng and others have very simple ideas, that is, the Ranba tribe is powerful and not bullied.
But Xu Chen didn't have this idea.
He also hopes that the Ba tribe can make a big splash at this witch master conference, get the favor of men from other tribes, and then train a team of bows and arrows with hundreds of people, sweeps a hundred miles and unify the five tribes.
However, there are too few Ba tribe women!
Suddenly, Xu Chen felt that his aunt was not enough.
To attract men to join, there are not enough force to just have bows and arrows, there must be enough women.
After all, this is an ancient primitive marriage system that relies on women to attract men.
Although we can have sex with multiple wives, we still have to be able to take turns.
What's more, women do not do less work than men every day, and they cannot spend time with men all day long.
They are not worried about being weak but not being equal. They are all young and strong men. They can endure it if they don’t have to take turns every three or five days, but if they don’t have to take turns every ten or half a month, it will probably lead to group fights.
Fighting for the right to mate has always been the most cruel battle between male animals, and death and injury are inevitable.
To raise a team of hundreds of people, at least two-thirds of women will need to meet the needs.
At present, all adult women in the tribe are only twenty-one, and the gap is very large.
So Xu Chen was very simple and felt that this was an almost impossible problem to solve.
It must be too late to live. When one grows up one after another, one dies of old age.
The reproduction and growth of primitive tribes was accumulated over hundreds, thousands or even tens of thousands of years. During this accumulation process, it was also constantly splitting and spreading. Although the overall number of human races is increasing, for a small tribe alone, the rate of population growth is simply negligible.
Since I was born too late, the only way was to snatch it.
However, robbing people seems to be a slave society, and it has long exceeded the scope of tribal civilization.
Although these primitive tribes have conflicts with each other, they will not fight and compete for people. At most, there will be some conflicts when competing for territory and resources. Communism is implemented within the tribe, working together, taking care of the elderly and young, and sharing all living resources equally. There is no class, and there is no concept of class.
Therefore, in this harmonious primitive tribal era, there was no trend or bad habit of stealing women.
Even if I am magical, if Feng and others go to another tribe to steal women, I am afraid they will not agree, and Moba will not agree even more.
Because doing so completely goes beyond the moral scope of their inheritance.
Maintaining the foundation of tribal existence is to rely on the matriarchal blood ties. The women you stole will destroy this blood ties, resulting in a huge impact on the ethical foundation of tribal existence.
Therefore, it is as incredible to steal a woman from another race as it is not illegal to just pull a woman home to sleep in an era that Xu Chen once knew.
Of course, the ladies who spend money on nightclubs don’t count.
After all, that cost money...
Damn, I can’t grab it, but I can buy it.
When Xu Chen thought of spending money, he suddenly had a flash of thought.
You can't even buy a rent.
I regularly rented a group of young women to meet the daily needs of tribal men, and helped me with work by companionship with food, accommodation and other people. I rotated every six months and used pottery and fabrics to pay for the rent. The children I gave birth to belong to my own tribe...
Although this idea is incredible, there is no problem with the relationship between men and women in the current tribe.
However...it seems that this approach is no different from opening a brothel.
Is it true that I have the potential to be a client and want to open a brothel as soon as I traveled through time?
What's more, even if it's rent, even if all tribes are short of people, the women will agree or not, and the tribe leader probably won't agree.
While combing Xiaoma's hair, Xu Chen kept thinking about how to quickly increase the population and strength of the tribe to quickly achieve his grand plan of unifying the nine provinces... a radius of hundreds of miles.
Unfortunately, it's not reliable after thinking about it.
To attract more men from other races to join, more women are needed, but women cannot rob and buy, and even if they rent, they will likely not succeed.
Therefore, it is difficult to plan to quickly increase the population in a short period of time.
After thinking about it, Xu Chen felt helpless and could only sigh and temporarily put this brain-burning problem behind him.
At present, I was completely disgusted with the situation of the nearby tribe. All the information was obtained through daily communication between the tribe members. Judging from the simple language and narrow knowledge of these primitive people, these contents were not very reliable.
Therefore, he planned to wait until he went to the Witch Lord to meet the world before he planned slowly.
