Traveling through the primitive world: I was a priest in the tribe

Maybe the gazes between the two were too sticky, Xiaoman, who was being held by the hand, couldn't help pouting and said, "Father, you see Qing every day, haven't you seen enough?" Although Ji Lang recognized Xiaoman as his son, he did not change Qingjiu's name because of the relationship between Ji Lang and Qingjiu. At first, Ji Lang wanted Xiaoman to call Qingjiu "Uncle Qing", but Qingjiu himself didn't care about these and didn't care. He simply didn't bother about this name later.

Ji Lang, who was caught, blushed a little, "I didn't look at him. It's not that I didn't look at him, I just took a look."

"What do you mean just take a look? You looked for a long time and even went astray, pushing me into a pit." Xiaoman exposed him mercilessly.

Ji Lang: ...Can you give this little brat a spanking?

I searched around for a small branch and treated Xiaoman to a meal of fried bamboo shoots with meat, which was an indispensable part of everyone's childhood.

Although there were only a few children, they were not slow and soon they reached the lake.

The living conditions for wild animals here are also very poor, and they have a strong sense of vigilance. Jilang rarely sees such scenes.

The various footprints left by the lake spread far away. Even though the moist soil had dried up, many traces were left behind. There were even some undried watermarks by the lake. It was obvious that there were other animals here before they came, but they ran away quickly after hearing the noise.

Looking at the long and obvious sheep's hooves, Ji Lang couldn't help but feel excited. Spring was coming, and it was time for reproduction. He had raised ewes for the entire winter season, and now it was time to find a husband to give birth to lambs. He had to hurry up, after all, his dream was to have a large flock of sheep, which was not something that could be done by just raising a dozen or twenty sheep.

Seeing him staring at the footprints in a daze, Qing Jiu stretched out his hand and waved it in front of his eyes, "What's wrong? Are you craving for mutton?"

Ji Lang patted him in anger, "No." After patting him, he felt something was wrong. Although his interim goal was to herd sheep, his ultimate goal was indeed to eat mutton, which was also correct...

Lan Hefeng and his two children were already looking for wild vegetables in the lush vegetation area near the lake. The area had not yet been completely dried out and was a little damp, making it easy to dig. Ji Lang soon joined them in digging wild vegetables.

“Can I eat this?”

"No, that's very bitter."

"what about this?"

"No, it will give you diarrhea if you eat it."

“Is this edible?”

"...That tastes terrible, even sheep don't like it."

"Look at this one I dug. The roots are so thick. It will definitely be able to survive."

"Ah-that's poisonous. You'll die if you eat it. Xiaolang, why don't you go catch fish with Sashi?"

......

Ji Lang, who was despised, couldn't help but feel fortunate at this moment. Fortunately, when he first entered this world, he did not choose to try these wild vegetables that he had never seen before. If he had really tried them, he might have become a pile of bones somewhere by now.

How come he can’t eat anything that looks like it’s edible?

As expected, he has never had any luck.

Sa Shi caught fish not because she didn't recognize wild vegetables. Unlike Ji Lang, she had followed Am to collect vegetables since she was a child. Even though she preferred to catch small animals by herself rather than doing the boring job of rummaging through the grass, this did not stop her from following Li and recognizing a lot of wild vegetables.

She was catching fish now only because she had eaten fish ball soup a few times during the winter season and she liked it very much. Later, although the fish that were frozen and thawed could also be made into fish balls, the taste was still much worse than that made from fresh fish. She had been talking about it for a whole winter season, and now that it was finally out, she must catch some first.

Moreover, fish balls are easy to make, so even someone like her who is not good at cooking can make them herself.

Sa Shi's fishing technique was very professional and you could tell she caught a lot. She first took out the duck intestines that she had prepared long ago, cut them into small pieces bit by bit, and threw them in a place far away from the lake but still visible. Then she found a long wooden stick nearby, squatted by the lake and waited.

Soon, fish of all sizes gathered at the place where she had made the nest. The moment Sa Shiyi jumped into the water with a bamboo basket in one hand and a wooden stick in the other, some small fish were scared away by the noise, but she didn't care. More fish continued to stay in place, eating small pieces of internal organs.

Sa 11 approached little by little, and soon the fish began to swim around randomly. As she approached, she used the wooden stick in her hand to drive the fish towards the notch on the side that she liked.

Although a lot of fish escaped in the middle, Sa Shi finally caught a whole basket.

Ji Lang followed behind her and picked up some fish, and he also caught several large ones.

A very fruitful day.

There was a basket of tender wild vegetable sprouts, a basket of wild vegetables with their roots and soil ready to be taken back and planted in the fields, a basket of fish of various sizes, and some small animals that Qing Jiu was holding in his hands that Ji Lang didn't even recognize.

Ji Lang's basket was also not idle. He plucked two handfuls of newly grown tender leaves from the trees for the sheep and ducks at home.

Liefeng and a few puppies swam back and forth in the water for several laps as if they were not afraid of the cold. Fortunately, when Ji Lang was diverting water, he chose a location next to a spring, otherwise if the water flowed down, they might have eaten dog hair.

On the way back, Ji Lang was still worried that Liefeng, the puppies, and Sashi would be cold as they had just come out of the water. However, in just a short while, Sashi's hair and the puppies' hair were almost dry.

This weather is really hard to understand. When it is cold, it is unbearable, and when it is hot, it becomes hot immediately.

If you say there is no transition time, it is still cold in the morning and evening. If you say there is a transition, it is as hot as midsummer at noon, and you can almost hear the cicadas chirping.

An unpredictable climate.

However, except for Jilang, everyone has already gotten used to it.

With the arrival of the warm season, things became busy. Guoqi and Zhou were both out, so Qingjiu and Feng were the ones who cleaned the sheep and duck pens early in the morning every day.

During this winter season, Feng grew almost twenty centimeters taller and was much stronger than before. From behind, he looked like a sturdy and reliable hunter. However, from the front, he looked a little different. After all, with his round baby face, no one would think he was an adult. Moreover, his face and figure were not out of place, giving a strange sense of harmony.

So he was gloriously discharged from the position of team leader of the doll team. Now he is Wu who plays with Xiaoman and Chuan. It may not be long before Tao An and Tao Rong are added to the group.

These two little fat guys eat and sleep every day, and they have grown up to be plump and round. Especially the little girl Tao Rong, who is very active. Ever since she learned to crawl and stand up, she has made Sa Shi and Li worry a lot. If they are not paying attention, this little thing will stand up by herself by holding the railing, and then come to the edge of the railing and shake her little butt.

Sa Shi slapped her several times, and once he slapped her so hard that she started crying, but she still dared to do it the next time. She is the kind of person who only remembers the food and not the beating.

Ji Lang always found it very funny and strange every time he saw Sa Shi getting mad at the little girl. Why do people say that girls look like their fathers and sons look like their uncles, but this girl's temperament is obviously like the lively Sa Shi. Little Tao An doesn't like to make noises, and looks a bit like Qing Jiu and Guo Qi.

Because the two kids needed someone to look after them, and Guo Qi and Xi Shi would not be back for several days, Ji Lang was not in a hurry to start farming.

Since the potatoes haven't sprouted much, plant pumpkins and peppers first.

Pumpkin seeds need to be germinated before planting. Jilang saw his grandparents do this often when he was a child and is very familiar with the process.

He found a clean gauze to wrap many seeds and soaked them in warm water for half a day. In fact, more than two hours would be enough, but he wanted to plant more seeds, and Ji Lang was worried that the seeds in the middle were not soaked thoroughly, so he soaked them for a while longer. Then he washed the pumpkin pulp and other impurities that were stuck on the pumpkin seeds, wrapped them with moist gauze, and placed them on the kang in the kitchen to wait for them to germinate. They should germinate in three or four days.

Jilang plans to plant the pepper seedlings in the next few days. This is relatively time-saving and labor-saving, and does not require so many people. He will have to wait until the pepper seedlings grow out before he needs to transplant them.

Before going to bed at night, Ji Lang scooped out half a basin of hot water, added a basin of warm water, and soaked the pepper seeds he had saved earlier in it.

These seeds were picked out from the red peppers that were harvested later. They were a little fuller and larger in size than the green peppers he had planted before. Looking at these pepper seeds, Ji Lang began to imagine the peppers that would grow in the future.

At that time, not only do you have to dry the peppers, but you also have to grind a lot of chili powder, and make chopped pepper sauce, chili oil, and cooked chili oil.

Although he can't eat spicy food very well, he really likes spicy food.

In the room, Qingjiu was tidying up the chessboards that the little kids had left on the floor after playing with them. Ji Lang lifted the door curtain and went in, but Xiaoman was not there.

"What is this kid doing so late at night?" He is usually very active in putting away their toys, so why did he just leave them on the table today?

Qing Jiu was very skillful and soon the table was clean without a single hair. Ji Lang scooped water from the jar and poured it into three cups.

Outside, there was the sound of several children running and jumping.

"Hurry up, hurry up, I'm going to win this time, and then I can go to sleep." Xiaoman shouted as he walked into the house and first washed his hands in the basin on the shelf at the door.

Wu Hechuan also followed behind, doing exactly the same thing.

When the three people walked to the table with smiles on their faces, they were all stunned.

Where is our chessboard? Where is our huge chessboard? Where is the chessboard where we put all the chess pieces on the board for the first time and are moving the pieces step by step without deciding the winner?

It’s over.

This was the first thought that came to Jilang's mind.

Sure enough, the next second, Xiaoman, who still had a dazed look on his face, turned his head and looked at Qingjiu and Jilang at the door, "Father, Qing, have you put away the chessboard?" There was a crying tone in the little voice, and there was a grievance that could not be ignored.

Ji Lang immediately looked at Qing Jiu, with an expression that said, "This was all his fault and it has nothing to do with me."

It was rare to see a trace of helplessness on this man's face.

Qing Jiu met Xiaoman and Wu's anxious and frightened eyes, and nodded with difficulty.

"Then...what about the chess pieces on top?" Xiaoman asked, still unwilling to give up and not wanting to accept reality.

The atmosphere was a little frozen.

Qing Jiu took two steps forward, took out the bag from under the shelf, shook it, and the wooden chess pieces inside collided with each other, making a muffled sound.

It was obviously not a very loud sound, but at this moment, Xiaoman and Wu actually felt that the sound was a bit harsh.

The little guy felt even more aggrieved, and looked like he was going to cry the next second, "I...we have been playing for the whole afternoon and we still haven't decided who won..."

We were just going to the toilet together.

During the winter season, it was cold at night, so they would directly relieve themselves in the urinal outside the house. But now it is not so cold at night, so the younger ones took flashlights and went to the toilet together.

But in just a short while, the diligent and quick Qingjiu had cleared the chessboard.

Woo...

Xiaoman and Wu wanted to cry, but they felt it was too shameful to cry over such a thing. However, they had been playing for the whole afternoon and it was the first time they had reached this point where they had no more chess pieces left. They could only continue playing by moving chess pieces around.

Ji Lang quickly said, "Don't cry, don't cry, we can decide the winner next time."

Xiaoman curled her lips, "It's different."

After much coaxing, this somewhat inexplicable farce finally stopped after Jilang agreed to make a small bicycle for each of them to ride.

"You've been working so hard for nothing. If this wasn't my unequal treaty, what would you have to explain to them today?" Ji Lang listened to Xiaoman's breathing gradually becoming steady and after he fell asleep, he leaned close to Qingjiu's head and whispered.

Qing Jiu didn't expect that he would actually clean up the chessboard that the two kids had been playing on for the whole afternoon. He really thought they were done playing, so he turned around and reached into Ji Lang's quilt, repeatedly drawing circles on the itchy spots on Ji Lang's waist. Noticing that the man in his arms began to dodge, he used his other arm to drag the man into his quilt, leaned forward, and bit his smooth cheek with some itchy teeth, "You just want to watch the fun, don't you mind making trouble?"

Ji Lang immediately bit back angrily, "What do you mean I'm just here to watch the fun? If it weren't for me, you wouldn't be able to end it today."

This is indeed true. After all, Qingjiu himself has never played with any toys and can’t think of anything fun to make the children happy.

However, when they thought about what happened today, they buried their heads in the quilt and laughed softly. They had been holding it in for a long time, not daring to laugh, for fear that the kid, who was about to cry, would see them like this and start crying, and there would be no way to stop it.

Enough of laughing, let’s talk about something serious.

Ji Lang said quietly, "I don't know when Ye and the others will be back?"

"Based on Xiaoying and Zhou's speed, they may be able to return to the Snow Mountain Tribe in two full moons. However, with Ye here, it will probably take a few days longer." Qing Jiu said.

It took Xiaoying and Azhou three full months to get here with Dayu, stopping and starting. It won't take that long to go back this time. Of course, this is if they don't encounter any danger. In addition, Ye, who is of average physical strength and has never traveled long distances, won't go too fast.
