MTL - Be a Leader In a Primitive Tribe-Chapter 5
On the way back, the women talked about big and small things in the tribe in strange tones.
Including the broken things at home and outside the former leader's house, including how lame used his status as the leader's younger brother to bully others.
Including the back mountain.
Due to the lack of food, the tribe has a rule that those who are unable to work and those who are elderly must be sent to the back mountain to fend for themselves, and visits are not allowed.
Yu's aunt Xiang was also sent to the back mountain because she lost a hand.
Yu secretly went to look for his incense, but he couldn't find it, and was discovered by the leader. He was punished not to take food from the tribe before the snow season, and could only go to the surrounding areas of the tribe to find bugs and grass roots to eat.
Even with the protection of the tribe, the lives of ordinary people are still very difficult.
Only those who have the ability to join the hunting team will not starve to death.
Yu was young, and the hunting team didn't want her.
She often sneaks out to hunt alone, wanting to prove that she has the ability to join the hunting team.
Sang Yu instantly understood that when she met Yu yesterday, it was this little girl who went hunting alone to fill her stomach.
The women also told Sang Yu that every time it snows, there are as many people who freeze to death and starve to death as two pairs of fingers.
Sang Yu is not a person who lacks sympathy, so many people died, and she also felt heartbroken and regretful.
The Bird Tribe now has no food reserves or tools. Even if she leads it, it will definitely be a very severe test for everyone to survive the winter safely.
The cassava they carry back now can only be eaten for three or four days if they save it.
However, that piece of cassava can still receive seven or eight hundred more, and the recent food can be solved for the time being.
Feeling the surrounding spirit and weather, Sang Yu was almost certain that it should be autumn from September to October.
Facing the coming winter, food has become the top priority to be solved at present.
"Zhi, you said you have encountered this kind of plant before, where is it, and how many are there?"
Zhi had just finished eating a delicious cassava, and he was still not satisfied at this moment. Hearing the question from the new leader, he quickly cheered up.
"The tribe walks three more mountains in the direction of the rising sun, which is a little more than here."
Hearing what Zhi said, Sang Yu felt a little relieved.
When he returned to the tribe, he saw that what Sang Yu and the others brought back was actually cassava, so he took the opportunity to make use of the problem and cursed Sang Yu for wanting to destroy the entire bird tribe.
The people who came back from picking together saw that the three of them were fine after eating for so long, and their hearts were basically on Sangyu's side.
A young man named Gao stood up in the team, "The leader said that he would not eat dead people if they are cooked. If you are afraid of death, don't eat them."
Sang Yu glanced at the tall young man, and silently wrote down his name in her heart.
Even if the tribe only has about thirty members, the purity of the team's thinking is very important. The existence of people like Lame and Bones will split the team. She doesn't want the energy of the whole team to be wasted on internal friction.
Limp Ting Gao actually dared to contradict him, his face flushed with anger, his nostrils dilated like two pig noses, pointing at Gao and cursing.
"When is it your turn to speak? My brother was still there before, you couldn't even enter the hunting team, and you didn't even dare to fart."
Lame has been talking about his previous identity.
But now the situation in front of him is that the former leader is dead, and the tribe is not up to him.
Now Gao is not afraid of him at all, and said loudly: "The leader can eat as long as he says, if you don't eat, you will starve to death."
Lame was out of breath, and limped forward two steps, a pair of big hands covered with veins, pinched Gao's throat at once.
"This stupid woman wants to poison everyone in our tribe to death, and you still speak for her, see if I don't strangle you to death."
The lame palm was big and strong, and Gao blushed instantly, as if he was going to be out of breath.
At this moment, a solid figure rushed over and flew the limp away.
Although Limp still had strength, one leg was useless after all, and his body was extremely uncoordinated. He was knocked and flew to the ground, screaming in anger.
"You are not allowed to play high, Gao is my good brother."
This bull-like young man is Zhi's son Zhuang, who suffered from high fever and burned his brain since he was a child.
Now the whole person has become stupid, with no strength, and he doesn't know how to fight back when he is bullied.
Over time, even three-year-old children in the tribe could bully him casually.
On weekdays, only his mother and Gao protect him.
When the Eagle Tribe invaded yesterday, the two young men Zhuang and Gao were assigned to collect them along with a few women, so they escaped unharmed.
Sang Yu watched this internal dispute for a while, and got the information she wanted, then cleared her throat and said:
"Fighting is not allowed in the tribe. It was lame who made the first move just now. Today, the food will not be distributed to him for the time being."
After finishing speaking, he ignored how lame was in a fit of exasperation, and called everyone to roast cassava. As for the others, eat as much as you like, and starve if you don't.
After burning the corpses last night, the firepit of the tribe was re-ignited. The people of the tribe followed the original regulations and kept the fire burning all the time. Everyone consciously added more firewood to the fire.
There are three children in the tribe who are the same age as Yu, namely Qing, Hong and Bai. They have a good relationship with each other. When they see Yu roasting cassava, they also come to help.
Soon, the cassava was roasted, exuding a burst of fragrance, and everyone around was drooling.
Even just lame indignantly. Because I hadn't eaten for a day and a night, my stomach was growling loudly.
Seeing him swallowing non-stop, no one paid any attention to him.
Sang Yu asked Yu to neatly arrange the roasted cassava on the ground.
"Come and queue up for food if you're hungry."
The people who went out to dig cassava together just now. Because I regretted not being able to eat the last one in time, I got the order at this time and all quickly lined up in a small team.
Zhuang is simple and stupid, but he has great strength and consumes a lot of energy. He wanted to eat it when he was in the cassava field just now, but his mother told him to wait until he came back to eat.
Now that his mother and the leader are all fine, he has nothing to worry about. When Sang Yu gave the order, he was the first to run to the food and ranked first.
Mulberry elm makes branches and circles distribute the plant.
But before refusing to dig out the cassava bones together, knowing that the three of Sang Yu ate the cassava and nothing happened, they huddled in the back of the line and waited to get food.
In front of him was the tall, young man who had limped just now.
Gao Yi turned around and found that the bone row was behind him, grabbed his arm and kicked him out of the line.
"Just now I asked you to dig cassava. If you don't go, the leader said that if you don't go, there will be no food. You can't queue here."
Gu cursed and said: "Food is for everyone in the tribe, and I am also a member of the tribe, so why can't I eat it?"
After finishing speaking, he slipped out from Gao's subordinates and inserted himself into the middle of the team again.
Those who had private dealings with Gu couldn't bear it and opened their mouths to intercede for him.
When Sang Yu heard that these people were sympathetic, she frowned and said, "There's so much food. When I roasted it just now, I didn't have a portion for him and the lame one. You feel sorry for him, so you can share your own food." Give him a piece of food!"
As soon as these words came out, the few people who originally wanted to help out the bones immediately fell silent.
Sang Yu sneered, some people would pretend to be a good old man if his interests were not involved. Once his interests are involved, he dare not give a fart.
As for the lame and bone, let them know who is the boss of the tribe.
After everyone finished eating, Sang Yu announced the formation of the team.
"Now I want to build an all-around team, go out to find food, hunt and gather, and those who join the all-around team will get an extra piece of food every day."
This team is actually similar to the previous hunting team of the tribe. Everyone soon realized that according to the tribe's current remaining manpower, these people could not even enter the hunting team before, and their foundation was very weak.
If they encounter danger when going out, the overall combat effectiveness will definitely not be as good as the previous hunting team, and the danger index will also rise.
The few people who were originally interested in it retreated again.
Seeing that no one responded, Yu stood up silently.
And her three friends quickly followed after seeing her actions.
These people were about the same age, and they wanted to join the hunting team for a long time, but the hunting team didn't want them before.
Now that an all-round team appeared, they didn't dislike their smallness. These young boys responded immediately.
Sang Yu looked at the little kids in front of her and felt a headache.
If they are all experts like Yu, it is not impossible to join in. But such a young child is easily injured, and his combat effectiveness is not high.
But looking at these three pairs of shining eyes, Sang Yu hesitated, she couldn't dampen their enthusiasm.
After thinking about it again and again, he finally nodded.
The three of them nodded in agreement when they saw the leader. Immediately, he jumped for joy, his little face was flushed, and he stood beside the leader with his small chest out.
Immediately afterwards, Gao Hezhuang came out to join the all-round team.
Because of his strong body, Zhuang used to be a member of the hunting team, but those people bullied him because he was mentally ill and often robbed him of food. But even so, he can get half full.
Now as soon as the new leader said that he wanted to create an all-around team, Zhi pushed him out.
It's not that Zhi doesn't love her son. If she doesn't contribute to the tribe, her son with such a thick body won't be able to eat enough.
Moreover, the new leader seemed to be a very nice person. Those who had previously promised to go out to dig cassava would get two portions of food, and everyone did get it.
The new leader didn't put on airs at all, and he didn't look down on weak people. A weak woman like himself was not valued at all in the collection team before.
Now the novice leader is willing to hand over the distribution of food to himself.
With such a leader, his son should not be beaten if he follows her.
After pushing his son out, Zhi himself stood up and wanted to join the Almighty Squad.
Now there are eight people in the team including himself, four adults and four young boys, and Sang Yu is slowly gaining confidence.
Next, three more mature women joined in. They were the three women who went out with Gao to collect flowers and escaped the slaughter, namely flowers, grasses and sparrows.
The number of the team has thus reached eleven people, seven adults and four half-grown children.
However, when another woman stepped forward, Sang Yu hesitated.
She looked at this woman named Liu, and saw that the palm of her left hand had been cut off by something, and she was as thin as skin and bones.
Even so, it can be seen that this woman is quite beautiful.
Sang Yu thought for a while and said, "You have trouble with your hands. If you stay in the tribe, I will find some light jobs for you."
The courage that Liu had finally mustered up faltered again, and with his head lowered, he retreated silently to the back.
Sang Yu said: "Don't worry if you can't join the almighty team due to physical reasons, I will arrange other light work for you, as long as you work hard, I will not let you starve to death."
Liu who was behind was visibly relieved when he heard this.
I thought no one would respond, but who knew that I refused to dig out the cassava bones before, but made a noise, and wanted to apply to join the all-round team.
