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

Chapter 159: See you again in the cold season 14

He had been busy in the kitchen with Ye in the afternoon and didn't see what Qingjiu and the others were doing. He gave them a few instructions and came out to the yard but didn't see them either.

Ah Hua and Ah Yue were not sewing, but were chopping wood beside the firewood pile in the outer courtyard. Seeing Ji Lang looking around, they asked him, "Xiao Lang, what are you looking for? Do you need help?"

"Have you seen Qingjiu?" He didn't even go back for lunch. Ji Lang thought he was delayed by something, so he brought a few guys to see what was going on. After searching for a while, they couldn't even see his shadow.

"Hey? Didn't Abai tell you? Qingjiu came over this morning to discuss with Dayan, and then took people out to chase those guys." It's not that he wanted to call them back, he just wanted to see their movements so that he could make preparations in advance.

When the wild geese left in the morning, Abai had something to eat and then he and his friends went to tell the priest about it.

Ah Bai heard the two talking, rushed out of the house, and ran to Ji Lang, "I'm sorry, priest, I went to see them being punished, and then...then I forgot about it..."

He has had a good memory and is careful since he was young, but his health is not very good, otherwise he would be taken out to run around right now. After arriving here, his father and mother are not as busy as before, and he also has many friends to play with, and his personality is much more cheerful than before.

His father finally asked him to do something, but he actually forgot about it. Now he felt a little annoyed and a little uneasy.

Ji Lang waved his hand, "It's okay, go have fun, as long as you know what they are doing."

Ah Bai still didn't leave. He stood aside with his hands hanging at his sides. However, because he was wearing thick clothes, his arms were slightly bent inward, as if he was carrying two invisible big buckets. He looked cute and funny.

"If you don't go in, the fried meat and French fries will be eaten up." Ah Hua understands her kid better and knows how to control his "vital point".

Seeing him running in quickly, the two adults found it a bit funny. Why are they all little foodies?

Ah Hua looked at Ji Lang, "I heard them talk about what Xiao Hei and his gang are planning. What do you think?"

"I really haven't had time to think about this, but we don't cause trouble, but we're not afraid of trouble. If they really bring people to cause trouble, we'll beat them so hard that even their own mothers can't recognize them." Ji Lang is really tired now. He is already annoyed by the cold season, and there are always some blind people who come to cause trouble. He just takes this as a way to relieve his boredom.

Of course, this matter actually concerns the safety of everyone in the tribe, so we still have to make the necessary preparations. We have to take out the weapons and arrows that we had put away before and polish them.

Ah Hua smiled. She always felt that Ji Lang had a kind of naivety that was out of place here. The conflict between the two tribes would not only be bloody, but basically it would be a matter of either you or me dying, just like the civil strife in the Baiyun tribe before, when people who had lived together for more than ten years or even decades and called each other brothers could draw their swords and fight each other without caring about their past friendship.

But there was no point in saying these now. She pursed her lips and thought of other things.

"By the way, I got you something." Ah Hua went into the house and took something out. Ji Lang took it and looked at it for a few seconds. He felt that it looked familiar, but he couldn't remember what it was.

"Last time when you came here, you said there was a tool that could scrape off the corn kernels with just a twist. Didn't you briefly explain it? Uncle Shi heard it and figured it out and made it." Ah Hua took another hard corn from the wall next to her, stuffed one end in, twisted it, then pulled it out and stuffed the remaining half in, twisted it again, and only the bare corn cob was left inside.

Ji Lang also squatted down quickly and took a look. There were several pieces of iron plates fixed inside. "It's amazing. You can figure this out." Ji Lang was a little impressed. He wanted to figure it out before, but then he didn't know what to do every day and forgot about it.

"This is given to you by Uncle Shi. He said it's an apology to you." The old man wanted to save face, so he didn't want to do it himself. He made it a few days ago and tried it for several days. He only gave it to Ah Hua after confirming that it worked.

Ji Lang gladly accepted it, as this was exactly what he needed, and it saved him the trouble of getting it himself.

Seeing that Ji Lang was very satisfied, Ah Hua also breathed a sigh of relief. Although she knew that this man would not bear grudges and would definitely accept it, she was still worried.

"This thing is great. We can make a few more. Whoever wants one can come and exchange it. Then the old man can get some food and daily necessities without having to figure it out himself." Ji Lang took another corn cob and fiddled with it for a while. It was really useful, except that it took a little effort.

But the thing that the people here have the most is strength.

Qing Jiu and his companions came back after it got dark. Xiao Hei and his companions might have discovered that the two men had run away last night. There were footprints in the snow, but they didn't chase them too far, probably because they were worried that they would be found after they returned, so they packed up and left at night. Qing Jiu and his companions followed the trail to the outskirts of the tribe. They had never been to that area before, and it was hard to say whether there was any danger in it. They couldn't risk their lives, so they returned the same way.

"They are also very brave. If they encounter a hungry wild beast, they won't be able to run away." Sa Shi complained while eating from the bowl with relish.

Hunters rarely rashly enter unfamiliar mountains, not counting those who migrate like them. Most tribal hunters operate within the hunting range of their own tribe. And the reason they dared to travel such a long distance to come here was, firstly, because of Xi Shi's powerful perception, and secondly, because Qing Jiu had been here before.

"That can't be helped. If they stay in a place we are familiar with, they will be found. They went there because they knew we wouldn't be able to track them down easily." Xi Shi also analyzed, "That Xiao Hei is a smart guy, but unfortunately he has bad intentions."

Ji Lang also thought so. With such a good brain, he didn't think about how to live a good life every day. Instead, he was always thinking about who to take advantage of and how to sow discord between people.

If this person was not brought back from the Snow Mountain Tribe by Zhou and his team who knew him well, Ji Lang would have suspected that he was a spy sent by some tribe.

"If we follow their route and then go back to the place where I found traces of other tribes before, it will take at least a day and a night. Tomorrow I will go to talk to Dashu and Dayan and ask them to be ready at any time." Qing Jiu said. If that tribe really wants to do something, then let them never come back.

However, I wonder if the tree can still climb up in that state?

Dashu was still lying on the kang, feeling sick, and he sneezed for no apparent reason.

Ah Yue, who was cooking porridge by the stove, looked up at him and said, "What's wrong? Is it a little cold? Do you want to close the door?"
