MTL - Chronicles of Primordial Wars-Chapter 11 Record and count

Just as the poor people will continue to be excited after a night of riches, these days, the children in the cave have been in a state of extreme excitement.

The result of the excitement is that fighting.

Outside the fishing time, the fights in the cave occur frequently.

I used to fight for food. Now I am fighting for food. Sometimes I bring the spoils back. If anyone takes the wrong fish, there is nothing to say!

Nowadays, it is not a one-on-one heads-up. After Shao Xuan instilled in them the group is another form of hunting squad. These children are now grouped together in groups of five. The fights are of course groups and groups. The battle between the team and the team is more intense than ever.

Shao Xuan sat next to the sigh and sighed.

After seeing that a child had misplaced a fish and caused a battle between the two groups, Shao Xuan looked at the mess in the cave and thought about it, his eyes on a smooth stone wall near the hole.

A long time ago, when people in the tribe lived here, they polished the stone wall and wrote on the wall. Later, when they lived in the house, they would rarely add words on the stone wall, even in the hole. The children are boring or whimsical to paint, and they will only be painted near the ground, and the higher ones, only the traces left a few years ago.

Different times, the way of depicting is different from the depth. Some paints made with plant pigments are painted directly, while others are directly carved with stone cutters. Many traces have been blurred and discolored, and the original appearance is not clear. Putting it there is also a waste.

Shao Xuan took the little scorpions who were too excited and energetic, and let them smash the stone and began to polish the hole.

There are some large stones in the depths of the caves. They moved together and the height of the cave wall needs to be stepped on these stones, otherwise the height is not enough.

There are things to do, these children really have a lot of peace, plus this is Shao Xuan’s order, and no one is against it. Even if he is reluctant, he will grind a few times with a stone.

Because the cave wall has been polished for a long time, now it is just grinding the traces of the outermost layer. After feeling almost, Shao Xuan holds the branches that have been charred due to incomplete combustion, stepping on the stones below, on the wall of the cave. One to five wrote five groups, one group represented who, and the other two groups, they all told them one by one. From the perspective of insurance, Shao Xuan also wrote the name of the group member under the digital code of each group. .

Every once in a while, the tribe will send people to come to the cave to teach these children the most basic things, such as counting, such as some commonly used words, etc., Shao Xuan is thus knowing the text here, but the children in the cave are not willing to Listening, I learned very little, every time someone came, it was Shao Xuan who listened carefully.

The children in the cave have a stone on their neck. The name on the stone is their name. Even if they can't write, they can't recognize many words, but their names are still recognized.

The name was written, the group was also divided, and the fish brought back had to be written. Originally, Shao Xuan only wanted to write a digital record. Each group caught a few fish, but the children were not satisfied. Looking at the fish that were hung above the hole, Shao Xuan took a charcoal branch and painted a stick figure on the wall of the cave - an abstract fish, a fish can be made in one stroke, and it can be seen as a fish.

The next group of scorpions finally satisfied, and asked the people who counted the most in their group to verify that Shao Xuan’s paintings on the wall were consistent with the number of fish hanging on them.

Every fish has a little effort, and it’s just a few dozens of it. It’s not a lot of work, and it’s idle. Plus the hole is big, the hole wall is wide enough, it doesn't matter if you draw a thousand fish.

Where Shao Xuan draws fish, there is a ventilating hole on the opposite side of the cave wall. During the day, there will be sunlight coming in and shining on the wall of the cave, so that the paintings on the wall of the cave can be seen. very clear.

So, every day outside the fishing time, the children will sit in the hole and weave the ropes together. After a while, they will look up and look at the wall of the cave. Count the fish in their group and count them on the top. Fish on your own "site". It is precisely because of this that the number of children in this group is rapidly increasing.

In the past, people who were not willing to count with a stone stick are not required to remind themselves. It can be dozens of times a day, which is still rare.

"Axuan, is it twelve after ten?"

"Yes eleven!"

"Oh... eleven, twelve, thirteen, fourteen... wrong, Ah Xuan, how can our team have only fourteen fish? There are fifteen paintings on the wall! One less! Who grabbed us? The fish?!!" said the child and the other four groups of the same group copying the wooden stick stone, etc., eyes gloomy and looking at the other children in the hole.

Shao Xuan took a deep breath and took the branch and pointed to the wall: "Don't you see the fish on the front of the painting, and painted a thick one? The representative has already eaten, it was your own eating last night. Do you want to spit out the contents of your stomach to confirm it? I------help-busy!"

"...It seems to be oh." Thinking about it with his head, the suffocation of the child suddenly subsided, the stick was thrown, and the other four sat down to continue to weave the rope, as if the incident had not happened.

"A Xuan, I heard the uncle Ge said that the sky is a good weather, let's go to the river tomorrow?" A child asked with expectation.

The other children also erected their ears and stared at Shao Xuan as if they were Shaoxuan saying that a "no" word would break a glass heart.

"Well, tomorrow as usual." Shao Xuan walked out of the hole and looked at the sky and said.

Now more than 20 children in the cave are acting together. They are greedy and can't wait to fish on the banks of the river all day long. But they also know that it is best to act with others. It has to be like this. They can't get stone worms.

Shao Xuan tried a lot of bugs that can be found in the tribe. Only the stone worms have the best fishing effect. For those who do not listen to the command and act, Shao Xuan will not give them stone worms.

Do you want to be a stone worm? OK, you are going to dig it yourself. Without Caesar, you may not be able to dig a half for a long time. Those stone worms can act much faster in the ground, and they can't catch them in the first place, and they will return empty-handed. In those days, what time was Caesar's help to dig the stone worms?

The second reason for having to act in unison: they can't get the kind of black pieces that can float on the water. To get that, they must catch a kind of bug that lives in the black swamp. Unfortunately, except Caesar, they all Can not approach the Black Marsh.

For this reason, Caesar's position in the hole has also improved a lot. At least now the children look at Caesar's eyes are not the food eyes of the red bilberry fruit. Some of the brains are flexible and learn to please, I have seen before. Caesar licked the bones of the beast and gave the fish bones to Caesar. Unfortunately, Caesar had no interest in the fish bones.

In any case, the relationship between these little scorpions and Caesar eased a lot. Shao Xuan didn't have to worry about when the gangs would join forces to bake Caesar.

The next day, Shao Xuan was awakened by this group of people early, and ran to the gravel to dig stone insects. Caesar dug one, Shao Xuan was assigned a captain appointed to each team.

A stone worm can be used two or three times. After digging it, it is cut into two sections from the middle. In a few minutes, the two ends that are cut can be moved separately, from one to two. If the time is given a little more, They can grow as long as they were before they were cut.

Everything is ready, Shao Xuan came to the river bank with a group of people.

The soldiers on the river bank who were in charge of the guards changed a batch, but they soon became familiar with Shao Xuan. These two days, they all watched Shao Xuan bring the children in the cave to come fishing, and they will send them one day, they The impression of Shao Xuan was very good, and even the children who came out of the hole changed a lot.

When I saw the river, the gangsters couldn’t hold back, rushing to hurry and throw bait fishing. But it was suddenly stopped by Shao Xuan.

"Retreat! Go back! Don't touch the water! Don't throw the bait first!" Shao Xuan will rush to the front of the child and squat back, frowning and looking at the river.

It’s not right today.
