I'm bad and I'm hitting a wall, primitive life requires hard work

Nia was in no mood to listen to all this. His eyes were fixed on the wooden crossbow in the patriarch's hand, as if he couldn't wait to snatch it away.

Seeing that the chief was still staring at the wooden crossbow in a trance, Nia said eagerly: "Chief, let me try!"

Shen Qi seemed to be lost in thought...

Even though Xiqi had said that the wooden crossbow and the bow and arrow each had their own merits, he knew in his heart that this thing was far more powerful than the bows and arrows they were using now!

More importantly, it is easier to use and requires almost no skills to unleash its powerful lethality.

This is not only a hunting tool, but also an important weapon to protect the tribe!

"Chief! Chief, Chief——!"

Seeing that Chen Qi was slow to respond, Nia simply stood in front of him and started to urge him rapidly.

Shen Qi came back to his senses at this point, and looked up at Nia’s impatient look, feeling both angry and amused.

He put the wooden crossbow in Nia's hand and reminded her, "Ask Xixi how to use it first, and be careful."

Nia nodded, picked up the wooden crossbow with one hand easily, walked to Nishi Ichiki and began to ask questions in detail.

After a long time.

"Whoosh-"

"Whizzing--"

From time to time, the sound of crossbow arrows cutting through the air could be heard from the open space of the Yanyuan tribe.

I saw a group of strong men wearing animal skins gathered in front of the target where the children were training. They were queuing up to try out the wooden crossbows as if they were injected with chicken blood.

"Xiqi, this thing is powerful, but it doesn't feel as good as a crossbow."

Nia had just finished a round of trials and was smacking her lips and muttering.

He looked at the exquisite wooden crossbow with a trace of regret on his face.

Hearing this, Nishi Ichiki touched his chin, thought for a moment and then said: "This is a small wooden crossbow. If the hunting team wants to use it, they need to make a larger one. In addition, there are chain crossbows, crossbow machines, heavy crossbows, etc...."

As she spoke, she gestured to crossbows of various shapes and sizes.

Nia's eyes sparkled as she heard this. She rubbed her hands together in excitement and asked, "I see! Can we all have one?"

Nia felt happy at the thought of owning a wooden crossbow of her own.

Nishi Ichisu replied, "Of course, we can go ask Grandpa Morishi to order it, but that will have to wait until we return from the trade fair."

This thing can be used by the elderly, children, and people who are too weak to draw a bow and arrow. It is natural to achieve universal armament.

In primitive society, the enemy will not show mercy just because you are old, weak, sick, disabled or pregnant.

She also knew that Nia was looking forward to the new weapon, but now they had more important things to do.

When Nia heard this, she sighed a little disappointedly: "Oh, okay."

How long will it take to wait until I get back from the trade fair?

Nishi Ichiki looked at Nia's lost expression and couldn't help but smile.

Just as the two were chatting excitedly, a "chi chi chi" sound suddenly came from the bushes.

Nishi Ichisu and Nia exchanged glances and looked towards the source of the sound alertly.

Oh.

It turned out that Yan Luo had returned with a few children.

"Sister Xiqi!" Ste shouted loudly from a distance.

As soon as he came back, he saw a group of people gathered around the shooting range and immediately rushed over excitedly.

Is the wooden crossbow ready?

"Hey! Ste. Your wooden crossbow is ready. Come and try it." Xi Yiqi responded loudly.

She then walked towards the crowd and took back the wooden crossbow from a warrior.

The warrior who had just received the wooden crossbow looked at Xi Yiqi with resentment, muttering in his heart: It was finally my turn, but before I can even warm up the wooden crossbow, I'm already left without a chance!

Ster took the crossbow carefully.

Uh, it's a bit heavy!

It seems that I really need to listen to Sister Xiqi and exercise more to build up my physical strength.

Ok……

Eat more later!

While thinking, Ster asked, "Sister Xiqi, how do you use this?"

Nishi Ichisu led a few people to the marked shooting line and demonstrated in detail:

"Let's hold the crossbow in our hands like this, and then use this finger to gently place the trigger, which is the location of this small bone piece. When the bow is fully drawn, you need to aim your eyes at one side of the bowstring, so that your eyes, the side of the bowstring, the sight and the bull's eye are connected in a straight line, which forms the aiming baseline, and finally release..."

"Whoosh-"

With a sound of breaking through the air, a crossbow arrow with extremely strong explosive power was shot out horizontally.

In an instant, several people's eyes lit up.

Lan Xi asked: "What is the aiming baseline?"

Nishi Ichiki slapped his head suddenly, and after realizing it, he hurriedly explained it to them in the simplest and most straightforward words: "Let me put it this way..."

Several children gathered together, listening attentively.

……

Seeing this, Chen Qi coughed a few times and said to the warriors around him: "Okay, everyone go eat something and rest for a while. We have to continue hunting in the afternoon."

"Yes!" the warriors said in unison, their voices uniform and loud.

Then they dispersed.

in the open space,

After an afternoon of practice, Ster was able to operate the crossbow skillfully.

Nishi Ichisu nodded with satisfaction, quietly left the training ground, and walked towards Nia who was eating meat from a ceramic bowl.

She got straight to the point and said, "Brother Nia, I have some questions I want to ask you."

While chewing the food in his mouth, Nia replied vaguely: "Okay, ask it. I'll tell you whatever the question is, but can you customize a wooden crossbow for me as soon as possible?"

His eyes were full of anticipation.

Nishi Ichiki smiled helplessly.

This guy now knows how to negotiate terms.

"I'll design one that suits you when I get back!"

Nishi Ichiki agreed to Nia's request, then slowly walked to the side and sat down, then said: "I think the weather is going to change. If it rains heavily tomorrow, how can we trade?"

When Nia heard this, she glanced at Nishi Ichiki with some confusion and was about to answer.

"Don't worry, the rain won't get heavy and won't affect the trip."

A gentle voice came from behind the two of them.

It's witch language.

"Why?" Xi Yiqi asked somewhat puzzled.

Upon hearing this, Wu Yu frowned slightly, as if she didn't understand why Xi Yiqi would ask this question.

"This is the power of witchcraft," he explained in a flat tone.

After saying that, he even glanced at Nia deliberately.

Nia understood what he meant and tactfully moved the ceramic bowl away.

Seeing that there was no one around, Wu Yu continued, "The witch of the Grass Tribe has awakened a kind of witchcraft that can predict weather changes. Every year before the trade fair begins, the chief of the Mountain Rock tribe will send people to ask for a good day."

Hearing this, Nishi Ichiki was stunned for a moment, then he took a breath.

In this alien world, witches actually know witchcraft? !

What is the witchcraft in Wuyu?

Is it similar to the weather forecast capability?

Is there good and evil in witchcraft?

These questions were swirling in her mind like a tangled mess, and she couldn't make sense of them.

Seeing Xi Yiqi's shocked expression, Wu Yu's eyes became a little strange.

It has been more than ten winters since the Yanyuan tribe migrated here. Although they do not participate in every trade fair, they have participated in several. Everyone in the tribe knows about this.

Including rock sprouts.

Why does Xiqi look surprised?

Just as Xi Yiqi was lost in thought, she accidentally caught a glimpse of Wu Yu's thoughtful eyes.

My heart skipped a beat and I suddenly felt that something was wrong!

Is it because the question I asked was too stupid?

Or is this question simply common sense in this world?

Finished!

I won't be exposed, right?

How can we save this?

Xi Yiqi gritted his teeth in annoyance and secretly groaned in his heart. His soul traveled through time but he had no memories. Life was really difficult!

I always feel like I'm constantly stepping into traps!

Suddenly, a leaf fell lightly between the two of them.

Got it!
