Chapter 3 Old Rival
Since it is the origin of most stone tools in the tribe, there will naturally be a lot of stone suitable for processing. However, there is also a training place for totem warriors, so it is naturally the preferred choice for totem warriors. Only after them can a vulnerable group like Shao Xuan go to "picture leftovers".
The word "picking up leftovers" sounds very cold, but it is very consistent with the current situation.
Generally speaking, other people in the tribe go to "picking up leftovers", and most of them will be when the sun is about to set and approach the meal time. Only at that time, most of the soldiers in the training ground will rest. At other times, the training ground is very dangerous for people without the power of awakening totem. The splashed stones smashed by the soldiers' fists are undoubtedly the bullets for those in the vulnerable group. However, with the way Mai pointed out just now, Shao Xuan will be much more relaxed in the past.
If you can find good stones, you can bring them back and exchange them for a lot of things. Shao Xuan will naturally not miss this opportunity.
Shao Xuan took Caesar along the way that Mai pointed him before. In the middle, he could hear the roar from several training mountains. Some gravel that had splashed from some unknown places fell down. There were even larger stones rolling down on other mountain paths. If Mai had not told the safest road in advance, it would be much more dangerous to walk around this place.
Shao Xuan casually plucked his somewhat messy hair, shook off some stones and sand, and continued to walk.
The place where Mai's training was close to the top of the mountain. Several mountains that were assigned to the training grounds by the totem soldiers did not create a gentle mountain road, so it was difficult to get up the mountain. When she climbed to the place, Shao Xuan's arms, palms, and feet were bleeding.
Shao Xuan didn't care about the injuries on his body. He would be cured if he went back to rest for two days. If he could find good stone, everything would be worth it.
After much effort, Shao Xuan would have had no strength to climb up the mountain if he hadn't eaten in the morning.
There were stones of different shapes of different sizes lying on the uneven ground. On the stone wall facing each other, there were holes of varying depths and traces of tool excavation at the edges of the holes. Shao Xuan speculated that there were originally harder stones embedded here, but were later dug out and taken away by Mai to make hunting stone tools. Many very hard stones were not widely distributed on the mountain, but would form pieces one by one. Some were on the surface of the mountain, and some were buried deep inside the mountain. The soldiers could not split the mountain. Therefore, whether they could encounter the stone embryos they liked was all based on their own luck. Therefore, Shao Xuan had said before that Mai had good luck in training this time.
In addition to those holes, you can also see some fist marks and fist marks on the stone wall. This is the place for training in Mai.
The totem warrior's fist is really hard. If it were Shao Xuan, even if it was the most fragile place on the stone wall, if you punch, the stone will be fine and the fist will bloom.
The hardest and better appearance have been picked out by Mai. The stones that can be favored by Mai and the others are naturally more advanced, and the ones that are leaking are naturally something that Shao Xuan can use.
No longer thinking about it, Shao Xuan asked Caesar to be on the charge of the warning, but he seized the time to find stones that could be exchanged for food. If it was late, someone would definitely come to grab it.
Shao Xuan picked up a long stone half-foot-long stone. Its shape is not regular, not big, and it is not heavy to buy it. But Shao Xuan knew that the quality of these stones is not as heavy as possible. Many types of stones are not seen in his previous life, and some common sense from his previous life did not work in this world at all. What Shao Xuan now has is the new knowledge accumulated over the past six months. He does not know how to quickly identify the quality of stones. The stones he contacts are limited, unlike those experienced soldiers who can tell the stones by just a glance and touch them. Therefore, Shao Xuan used a stupid method. He first looked at which stones had good appearance and suitable for processing, and then used the stone knife he carried with him to cut and see the depth of the marks on the stones. Generally speaking, the shallower the marks, the higher the stone grade.
Shao Xuan waved his knife to the edge of the stone. After a crisp sound, there was only a shallow trace on the stone where it had just been cut. Seeing this, Shao Xuan was happy. This could be processed into an arrowhead or a gun. What exactly is polished into is the Stone Master's business. Shao Xuan just needs to take it to exchange food with the Stone Master.
He put the stone into a thick animal skin bag with several holes that he carried with him. Shao Xuan planned to continue searching, but Caesar found an abnormality.
Shao Xuan moved carefully to Caesar and looked in the direction shown by Caesar. There were three children coming over there, about ten years old. For example, Shao Xuan is taller and stronger today.
Three old acquaintances, Shao Xuan's old rival, and three bastards who always rob Shao Xuan's things.
The three of them were not from the Karen Cave. They all belonged to different families and lived in the foothills of the mountain. They often played together on weekdays. Their battle with Shao Xuan started a few days after Shao Xuan woke up in this world. At first, Shao Xuan's mentality had not changed yet, and he would always bring them into the world of his previous life. Even if he tried, he would keep his hands a lot. But the result of those few times he kept his hands, Shao Xuan threw away the jerky he had earned for those hard times and was beaten into a pig's head by these three bastards.
Later, Shao Xuan slowly turned around. Just like when he woke up on the first day, he saw the children with eyes like those wolves snatching food in the cave, Shao Xuan's attitude and mood towards them also changed.
During the period when he was recovering from his injuries, Shao Xuan had a deep reflection. After that, Shao Xuan did not hold back when he confronted them. The rules of the tribe were that people from the same tribe could not be killed, but as long as they were not beaten to death, no one said much. People living near the foot of the mountain have long been used to this barbaric rule.
Shao Xuan didn't know which special race the tribe was. Although it seemed that it was no different from the people in his previous life, people of this species had a very strong recovery. They were beaten up and could walk around for two or three days. They would still be full of vitality in one or two months. This is why the tribes don't care about this level of struggle, because in their opinion, this is just a tribe. It is important to prepare food yet.
As for those three children, Shao Xuan is not as tall as them or as strong as them, and he does not eat much, so what can he use to fight with others? He also has to be a strategy and fight hard.
Shao Xuan pressed Caesar's head down. Seeing that Caesar was still grinning at the three children walking towards this side, Shao Xuan pinched its mouth, "Wait first!"
After looking around, Shao Xuan chose a hidden place to hide the stones he had just selected in the animal skin bag, then quietly moved to the back of the stone wall and said to Caesar: "You will deal with the 'wild' later, do you know about the 'wild'?"
A warrior once said that many of the beasts that survive deep in the mountains are very smart, and most of the ones that are not smart are more difficult to deal with. Caesar is a relatively smart species. This is not the first time they have cooperated. If they take a step back, Caesar cannot tell the difference, and it doesn’t matter which one to deal with. Shao Xuan himself has already decided that the guy named "Sai" is the number one bastard. If he solves him, it will be much easier.
Caesar leaned down and hid quietly behind the big rock, which meant that it had already understood what Shao Xuan meant.
