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

Chapter 155: See you again in the cold season 10

When she came, she looked very apologetic. Xiao Liu got up in the morning and helped several old people in the tribe to boil medicine. Everything was ready soon. Damao ran to play with Xiao Liu and knocked over the clay pot on the medicine stove. It didn't break, but all the medicine inside was spilled. This guy didn't realize that he had done anything wrong and tried to lick the medicine soup that was spilled on the ground. Grandma Xue heard the noise, came out and knew what was going on. She raised her hand and slapped Damao on the butt twice.

The guy got angry and ran over to complain, but found out no one was there, so he sulked for the whole morning.

While eating, Grandma Xue looked around and found that Damao was not in the yard, so she ran over.

Ji Lang: There is always an illusion that a married girl, after getting into trouble and being scolded by her husband’s family, runs back to her natal family to seek support from them.

"It's my fault. I shouldn't have hit it. I was just so angry at the time. I used less and less of the medicine. I just thought it was a waste." Grandma Xue felt a little regretful. Damao was usually very well-behaved. When it got into trouble, she hit it and went to work without paying any attention to it. That's not how you train a dog.

Ji Lang quickly waved his hands, "How can you be blamed for this? Just beat him up, he deserves it. Dogs will behave themselves after a few beatings."

Liefeng had been beaten a lot in the past. He became more stable after giving birth to puppies last winter, but he was still naughty and was beaten a lot. When the puppies were teething, they were naughty and made trouble, grinding their teeth everywhere, and biting the doghouse, mat, and even the door sill. He was beaten a little every three days and a big one every five days. After that, they became tougher.

Not to mention that when they grow up and go out hunting with them, they are often beaten in order to be trained.

This guy Damao is a typical example of a guy who was too spoiled by Grandma Xue and Xiao Liu. He couldn't accept the sudden beating, so he felt aggrieved.

Knowing that these puppies were delivered and raised by Jilang one by one, Grandma Xue cured Damao's wounds. Although Damao stayed voluntarily, she always felt that it was a sacrificial dog. She usually fed them well and boiled a pot of bone soup. Grandma Xue and Xiao Liu each had a small bowl, and the rest, including the soup and bones, belonged to Damao.

There are many people in the yard next door, so naturally there are more bones cooked. In addition, some people also like Da Mao and will feed him from time to time. His leg injury is quite serious, so he cannot go out hunting with the hunting team. He usually moves around the tribe.

He eats well and does not exercise enough, so this guy is now fatter than his two brothers.

Ji Lang even regretted giving it half a ham when he didn't know anything at the beginning. This guy was too deceptive.

Grandma Snow was standing at the doorway calling Damao. It was playing with a few children. The children were holding something in their hands that attracted it. When it heard the sound, it turned around and saw that it was Grandma Snow. It walked two steps towards this side, wagging its tail, then stopped. It raised its two front paws and put them down again, stomping its feet, as if it remembered that it was still angry.

"Come here quickly, what are you looking at, do you still want to get beaten?"

Maybe Ji Lang's tone made it feel a little dangerous, so Da Mao ran over and squatted at the two people's feet. Grandma Xue touched its big ears and saw that it didn't seem angry anymore, so she felt relieved.

Dogs are actually very smart sometimes. Ji Lang actually likes getting along with them. They are very direct. If they like someone, they like him or her. If they like someone, they will be close to him or her. If they don’t like someone, they will just show their teeth and refuse to beg for mercy. There is no beating around the bush at all.

Maybe because he had experienced being deceived by both his parents, he preferred this honest and direct way of expression, which was why he was attracted to Qing Jiu.

He needs honesty, directness, preference and recognition, and Qingjiu will give them all to him.

Glancing at the "Big Dog" who was smashing noodles in the doorway, Ji Lang thought secretly that he must not let him know this nickname, otherwise he would be in trouble.

Da Mao did not go back with Grandma Xue. The puppies all liked to play, so they gathered together in the yard and had fun for a while. They were driven out by Sa Shi with a shovel. Later, they simply went out together to look for prey. The number of small animals around the tribe was not as many as in other places, but there were some. Snow rabbits, various mice, various pheasants and wild tits could all be caught. They often went out for half a day and then came back with full stomachs.

After the cold season, the pace of life in the tribe slowed down. Whether going out to dig bamboo shoots or hunt, people only went out once every few days. Most people stayed at home, doing some small work. Even so, the corn stalks, pumpkin vines and other things that were originally piled on the ground were moved back to the tribe bit by bit by these people like ants moving house.

The days passed slowly and uneventfully, and for everyone in the tribe, this was the best thing, not going hungry or cold, and spending this long season in peace and stability.

But some people were not so well-behaved. Early in the morning, Ji Lang was still squatting by the stove brushing his teeth, and there was the sound of someone walking into the yard. This was normal. Grandma Xue, Ahua, and Ayue would come to visit from time to time after breakfast, and then they would stay together to do needlework for the day. In addition, a few kids from the next yard would come to play almost every day, but Ji Lang didn't take it seriously.

Just as he was about to spit out the toothpaste foam in his mouth, someone lifted the door curtain. Xiaoman hadn't gotten up yet. The room was a little dark because the flashlight wasn't on. Ji Lang couldn't see clearly who it was. When he stood up, he saw it was Xiaoshu. She seemed to have cried, and her eyes were red and swollen.

She glanced at Xiaoman, who was still sleeping on the kang, and said softly, "Priest, can you come out for a moment? Something happened over there."

"Wait a moment." Ji Lang quickly rinsed his mouth, wiped his face and went out.

Xiao Shu stood outside the door, staring at her toes covered in snow. She looked listless. This was totally different from her usual cheerful and cheerful self. Ji Lang was a little surprised. "What's wrong with you?"

"Priest, my brother was beaten up, and Amu hasn't woken up yet." After she said a few words, she began to sob again, her eyes filled with tears, and she looked like she was about to cry again.

Ji Lang quickly pulled her into the kitchen and took out some toilet paper from his pocket and gave it to her. "Wipe it first, take your time, and tell me what's going on."

Xiaoshu casually made a face movement before starting to speak.

It was about the time when Amu and Aqiao were competing to be her partner. After they talked it out, apart from the fact that Amu was injured and Xiaoshu went to take care of him for a while, nothing happened afterwards. Everyone was busy preparing things for the winter season. Although Aqiao would occasionally show his goodwill and send some food, Xiaoshu refused and made it clear that she would not be his partner. After the winter season, the two had even less contact, so Xiaoshu almost forgot about it and thought that Aqiao would not mention it again.

But last night after dinner, Amu and Dashu were chopping wood outside the door, and Aqiao came out with a group of people, saying that he wanted to duel with Amu, and whoever lost would not be allowed to bother Amu anymore.

Aqiao is a hunter from the Snow Mountain Tribe. He is tall and muscular. Amu, on the other hand, is young and thin. He had suffered such a serious injury before and has not fully recovered yet. How could he be his opponent?

Dashu quickly tried to smooth things over, saying that everyone was from the same tribe and there was no need to duel over this matter. To them, a duel was a very serious matter and if they agreed to it, even if someone on either side died, no one else could interfere.

Anyone with a discerning eye could see that Aqiao was just trying to take the opportunity to kill Amu, which was definitely not okay. Dayan, who was working nearby, came over to persuade him, but the people who followed Aqiao, as if they had discussed it beforehand, immediately started saying things like Amu was incompetent, didn't dare, was timid, and wasn't worthy of being a hunter, trying to anger Amu.

Of course, Amu is a straightforward person, and it was not surprising that he fell into the trap.

Seeing that he couldn't persuade them, Dashu immediately thought of looking for Ji Lang and Qing Jiu, but the gate was guarded by several people and they couldn't get out at all. If the people that Dayan usually brought were there, they could help a little, but at this moment, they had gone out hunting and had not returned yet. No matter how strong Dayan was, he couldn't do anything against a group of people.

Aqiao and Amu started fighting. Although Amu was thinner, he was very flexible. The two of them fought back and forth. At the beginning, neither side tried to kill each other. But later, Aqiao thought he could win easily, but he didn't expect that this man was not easy to deal with. He became a little angry and started to fight fiercely. Naturally, Amu was no match for him. After being hit by several punches, he could hardly get up.

Logically speaking, they were all from the same tribe and had no deep hatred. Even if the life and death of the opponent was decided by the other party in the duel, they would not kill each other. However, Aqiao saw that Amu could not get up, but he still went up and stomped on Amu's back and kicked him out.

Dashu, who was watching on the side, also became anxious and started yelling and cursing. But Aqiao wasn't done yet and went over and hit Amu on the head a few more times.

At this time, Dayan realized that something was wrong. This man wanted to kill someone.

He went into the house and got a knife, pointed it at Aqiao, and asked him to figure out the consequences of killing someone in the tribe.

Aqiao's eyes were red with anger at this point, and he simply wouldn't listen. Dashu couldn't bear it anymore. He couldn't bear to see the people he brought with him being beaten to death in front of him, so he immediately picked up a thick wooden stick and hit Aqiao twice.

Aqiao turned around, grabbed the stick, and kicked the tree out. He wanted to hit it a few more times, but someone outside the door shouted that the people from the Baiyun tribe who had gone out had returned.

He was sober by now, thinking of what the priest and the leader had said. He felt a little scared, but also a little confident. No one could interfere with the duel, not even the leader and the priest.

Another reason he hit the big tree was because he had a revengeful mentality. This person was clearly smiling in front of him, but in private he didn't even help him say a few good words for the small tree. He deserved to be beaten.

It gets dark early in the cold season, and it was already completely dark now. Some people in the caves had gone to sleep, and no one knew how badly Amu and Dashu were injured. After Dayan brought his hunting team to control the situation, they quickly carried the two in to find Grandma Xue. It was already very late when they finished treating their wounds. After thinking about it, he didn't go to Qingjiu and Jilang's yard to tell them about this.

Xiaoshu found out about this when he woke up in the morning. He immediately rushed to Grandma Xue's room to take a look. Amu had a fever and was still asleep. Dashu woke up, but half of his face was swollen and he couldn't move. When he saw his sister come in, he wanted to smile, but ended up pulling his wound, and he grimaced, looking hideous and pitiful.

The people who were busy in the kitchen frowned after hearing this. Aqiao would occasionally come over to play chess or something, but no one had ever thought that he would be such a person.

"Does Qingjiu know?" Ji Lang asked.

Xiao Shu nodded, "The leader is already over there. Brother Dayan told him. He asked me to tell you."

"Okay, then let's go over and take a look." Ji Lang was a little confused. Although Aqiao and his men liked to form small gangs, it was basically like this in the tribe. It would take time to change, but why did they suddenly become so...brutal?

Ji Lang and Xiao Shu both went out the door. Guo Qi, Xi Shi and Sa Shi followed behind them, all holding weapons in their hands.

It's not that they want to scare anyone or anything. After all, they have experienced the split of the tribe and they know very well that former teammates can turn against each other at any time. They are more hateful when fighting than when hunting, so they have to be on guard.

The people who caused trouble last night have been called together, a total of eight people including Aqiao. When Ji Lang entered the yard and saw Xiao Hei and Xiao Bei standing inside, he had a feeling that it was as expected.

I won't talk about Xiaobei, he is a brainless guy. Xiaohei is...very good at inciting people to make trouble. He is really like a toad crawling on your feet. It doesn't bite you, but it annoys you.

There was no emotion in Qing Jiu's voice. "Leave your weapons behind, and you can take your own furs and food. I'll give you one morning. Once you're done packing, immediately leave the territory of the Taotie tribe." It was not a discussion or a warning, but a direct notification.

Not to mention Aqiao and the others, even Ji Lang and the others were a little surprised. They didn't expect that they would be driven away directly. Ji Lang thought that they were going to be beaten up, but he was in a hurry just now and didn't think about it carefully. Now that he thought about it, this kind of person who would harm his own people must not be kept, otherwise how could he feel at ease to leave his back to him when he went out hunting in the future.

"No, chief, you can't chase us away just because of the duel between Amu and me! It was Amu who agreed to the fight." Aqiao was stunned for a moment before trying to argue for himself. After all, if they went out now and couldn't find a tribe to take them in, they would surely die. Without a warm cave and firewood, it would be really difficult to survive.

Qing Jiu glanced at him with his eyes slightly lowered, "Isn't this a negotiation, or do you want to duel with me?" His tone was more aggressive than usual, "If I lose, I leave, and you become the leader. If I win, you get out immediately."

At this time, Aqiao was actually feeling a little regretful. He looked at Xiao Hei, this man had been very close to him in the past few days. It was this man who came up with the idea of ​​dueling with Amu yesterday. Needless to say, he felt really happy after beating him.

I didn't expect that I would be kicked out of the tribe just after having a great night.

Xiao Hei noticed his gaze and nodded slightly.

"Okay, let's duel." Aqiao decided to give it a try. He knew that the leader was very powerful, but he had no other choice now. He didn't know how to put himself in the leader's shoes, otherwise he would understand that Amu was in the same mood last night.
