The Strongest Tribe

Are there any relics in the mountains, or have powerful tribes lived a long time ago?

Seeing that the witch was silent, Xia Tuo asked again. The ruins were the only solution he could think of at the moment. After all, there were a group of poor people in the entire mountain range. The conditions on the ground obviously did not allow it. We had to dig underground, and we couldn’t find any living people. It's killing people.

Under the light of the fire, Wu shook his head slightly, with a wry smile on his face, and Xia Tuo couldn't help showing a touch of disappointment.

If there is no living person, the dead person does not know, this is difficult, and it is really not easy to be a patriarch.

I'm going to shrink the scattered population in the mountains again.

Suddenly, Xia Tuo changed his voice.

You are the patriarch.

The witch raised her eyelids, and seemed not interested in what he said.

I'm going to learn witchcraft, you can go.

Xia Tuo got up, slandering old man Wu in his heart, he has been comprehending for so many years, but you have achieved something through comprehension, you have a big beard.

It seems that he has to find a successor for Wu.

Seeing Xia Tuo walk out of the cave, Wu's eyes were slightly closed.

Fortunately, he didn't know what Xia Tuo was thinking, otherwise he would really hit Xia Tuo with his cane.

After returning to his cave, Xia Tuo summoned all the elders and hunting captains over.

Hong, there are three hunting teams from the Ministry of Military Affairs. Tomorrow, one will go hunting, one will be patrolling the tribe, and the other will be led by you to gather all the scattered tribes displayed on the sand table and bring them into our Xia tribe.

it is good.

He glared at Hong who had just eaten his fill and picked his teeth with animal bones as thick as his fingers, and immediately told him to calm down, don't treat the patriarch as the boss.

I'll go.

Suddenly Li yelled out, he couldn't help seeing Feng got a wife during the day, maybe he can find a wife when he goes out to retreat.

Yep.

With Xia Tuo's approval, Li Da hand touched the back of his head silly, he must find a woman who is stronger than that kid Feng, so that he can give birth.

With a wave of his hand, everyone dispersed, and the cave fell silent.

The matter of reducing the population cannot be stopped, and neither can the matter of finding the force measuring column. Now the tribe has established several elders, and there is a division of labor for the time being.

It is a pity that it will take some time for the wasteland reclaimed by the Ministry of Agriculture to be harvested. During this time, in addition to hunting, the tribe also needs to go out to collect wild fruits and potatoes.

Fortunately, these are not in a hurry. What the Ministry of Agriculture is doing is to conduct experiments to see what troubles will be encountered in artificially growing food.

In fact, at the very beginning, he wanted to let his clansmen build stone houses and stone temples. After all, living in a cave is too humid and cramped.

But conditions do not allow.

The valley seems to be more than ten acres in size. Once the stone houses are built, it will be crowded. Next, more people need to be collected. The only way to make plans is to collect a wave of people.

Today's tribal resident seems stable, but in fact it also limits the development of the tribe. Fortunately, the limitation of the tribe's weakness has not yet emerged.

When the Golden Crow rose from the east with flapping wings on the second day, Hong's hunting team had already rushed out of the tribe, and began to gather the population according to the scattered tribes marked on the sand table.

...

At the foot of Niutou Mountain, the Lu tribe.

Yi led a burly young man to appear outside the Lu tribe, and each of them carried a bamboo basket with animal bones and animal skins in it.

The two quickly entered the Lu tribe, and when they came out again, a stone jar appeared in the bamboo basket on the young man's back, and the two quickly walked out of the Lu tribe and disappeared into the vast mountain forest.

At this moment, another totem warrior, Jue, appeared in the forest with a bamboo basket on his back.

Jue was also followed by a totem warrior, a wild bear with the fur of a cracked stone in the bamboo basket, swaggering into the Lu tribe.

...

In the middle of the night, the Xia tribe became lively again. Hong and Li, who had gone out, returned to the tribe's camp with more than a hundred people.

This is from a scattered tribe in the south of the tribe that is close to the big river.

For several days in succession, Hong led a hunting team to go out early and return late, bringing back tens or hundreds of people every day.

Five days later, the tribe's population reached 713 people. On the seventh day, after Hong returned with more than a hundred people, Xia Tuo ordered a suspension of the population gathering.

The reason why it took seven days was because the people brought back by Hong were all scattered tribes who had been screened out without the totem pillars, which also avoided conflicts between the totems that were fused together.

The population of the entire Xia tribe suddenly reached 844 people, and from 186 to 844, they became a big fat man.

More than 800 people relieved the pressure of the tribe's lack of youth, but also brought new pressure. Nearly 110 elderly people with decaying blood accounted for nearly 15% of the tribe's population.

...

Patriarch, these days we have exchanged a total of 27 jun for salt from the Lu tribe in different identities.

The Great Elder reined, his brows furrowed a little, and he continued, I guess it has attracted the attention of the Lu Tribe.

As a tribe that controls the salt of various tribes in dozens of hundreds of mountains around, Xia Tuo dare not confront it head-on, so he can only use this method of ants to move house, in exchange for a little bit of salt, even if the Lu tribe has very dark hands, in Add salt to the sand.

This is not the most important thing, the most important thing is the Yijun table salt of the Lu tribe, which can be large or small, and it is very random.

Patriarch, the valley where the Lu tribe is located is very heavily guarded, and there are guards on the surrounding mountains.

Lu followed the words of the Great Elder and said that he has been wandering around the outside of the Lu tribe for a few days, but it is a pity that the Lu tribe is very tightly guarded.

It is impossible to determine whether the salt is produced in the valley where the Lu tribe is located.

Hearing this, Xia Tuo nodded. The Lu tribe is the most powerful tribe he knows so far. Of course, he wants to know that other tribes don't have that condition right now.

So he can only die against the Lu tribe.

By the way, patriarch, I've been wandering outside the Lu tribe for the past few days, and found a mysterious person who has entered and exited the Lu tribe.

Lu Qingyin, with a hint of thought in his eyes, continued: This person doesn't seem to be going to change salt, he is wearing armor, carrying a bow and crossbow, and a long knife on his back, and the animal skin can't hide the cold light shining on the back of the knife.

Ironware.

Hearing this, Xia Tuo was startled. For so many days, let alone ironware, he has never seen even a piece of iron slag. It would be a bit scary if it was ironware.

His side is still stone tools, and they have entered the Iron Age, which is already a qualitative leap.

After a few breaths, suppressing the surprise in his heart, he motioned for the deer to continue.

These two people are very aggressive. They broke into the Lu tribe directly. When they came out, they were sent by the chief of the Lu tribe. There were also a few people from the Lu tribe following them, each carrying a bamboo basket.

After I carefully followed them over the four mountains, I didn't dare to catch up with them.

After pondering for a moment, Xia Tuo waved his hands and said, Okay, let's not talk about this today. I have already discussed with the witch, and I will sacrifice the totem in three days!

Sacrificial Totem!

Hearing this, everyone in the cave was shocked. At present, there are nearly thirty people in the cave. Except for the totem warriors who were originally promoted in the tribe, a total of five scattered tribes have gathered these days.

Taking the original bamboo tribe as an example, there are two totem warriors, Yu and Hong. These people all became totem warriors before the beast tide changed a few years ago. The road ahead is bleak.

This is why Xia Tuo dared to gather so many at once.

After these scattered tribes were brought into the Xia tribe, they first had to eat and dress well, and then sacrificed totems to make everyone completely return to their hearts.

Right now, among all the people in the tribe, elderly people accounted for almost half, there were more than one hundred and ten people, there were fifty-three children under the age of ten, and seventy-eight young people.

There are 213 young men and women between the ages of 20 and 40, and the rest are middle-aged people in their fifties, who are also the main body of the entire tribe's population.

There is no doubt that this part of the tribe has almost no potential at all, and there is no way to do it. The scattered tribes have no resources and no totems, so they are lucky to survive.

Fortunately, the tribe will not only need soldiers in the future, but also manpower for farming, making armor, making salt, and firing pottery, etc., but some things are not in time yet.

Hong, you lead the hunting team out to hunt. After three days, I need enough prey to sacrifice to the great totem.

yes.

There was a flash of fire in Hong's eyes, and he shouted hastily.

On the second day, Hong led all the hunting teams into the depths of the mountain forest, and Xia Tuo also walked out of the valley with his hands behind his back. Potatoes are planted on the wasteland.

In a corner, he also saw a small piece of about dozens of green bamboos, which were transplanted from the original bamboo tribe.

Looking at the wasteland in front of him, Xia Tuo had an urge to plant all the food in his bones, and he didn't panic when he had food in his hands.

Naturally, the plains are the best place to grow food, but unfortunately, being in the mountains, there are very few crops that can satisfy one's hunger, so the Ministry of Agriculture can only try it slowly.

He also has no foresight, and he doesn't know that he can travel to this world, and everything needs to be tried bit by bit.

Right now, I have an idea in my mind. After the tribe is integrated and able to hold the tribe, the tribe must move to a place where it can be used to build a city and farm.

Near the totem sacrifice, the witch who had been hiding in the cave also came out, and the tribal valley looked a little messy, but it was nothing, life was gradually getting better, wasn't it?

After wandering around the tribe, Wu found Xia Tuo.

There are too many people in the clan, and a big sacrifice is needed.

What kind of sacrifice?

Blood sacrifice.

Wu looked at the messy valley. Due to the increase in population, dozens of caves had been dug out in the valley again. Even so, it still seemed a bit crowded and chaotic.

Use sacrifice as a sacrifice, use blood as a guide, communicate totems, and gather people's hearts.

Okay, everything will be arranged by Wu.

Xia Tuo agreed with all his heart, and prescribed strong medicine for serious illnesses. The spirit of the totem needs to gather the will power of more people in order to recover again.

A blood sacrifice is a blood sacrifice. After all, these people are desolate people scattered in the mountains, and the awe of the totem in their hearts may have dimmed a bit in these years.

What he needs is a tribe with one heart and one mind, so that he can command and attack where he points, and concentrate on development.
