As a barbarian, Jock is a qualified warrior, but not a qualified leader.
With the innovation of tools, the tiger forest group has brought about an explosive growth in population, which has also broken through the original totemic order here.
After the management of the tribe, Jiao Ke could only tell everyone the story of Human or Ji Lin, who he found more interesting, to solve the problem.
Ji Lin's story is more fantastical than the traditional tiger barbarian story, and most of the tools here are still from Ji Lin, and slowly everyone regards Ji Lin as the totem of this tiger forest grouper, or the Qizi in their minds as the god of the tiger forest grouper, making Lin Rui quite prestigious here.
Figuring out this, Lin Ji didn't know what it was like to feel in his heart.
He has done so much in Ji Lin, and he can say everything, but no one has regarded him as a totem yet.
The first time he came to this place, it was only because Hu Yi'er and Jiao Ke passed on something here, and these people already regarded him as a god.
He was going to laugh or cry Lin Ji walked around the tribe under the guidance of the old man, and saw that except for the more people here, the others were not much different from the former Ji Lin gray wolf.
Except for a few thatched-roof wooden huts, most of them are semi-crypt huts.
Some houses may have been built in a hurry, and even the walls of the thatched huts were not smeared with mud, and the temperature inside in the cold wind can be imagined.
Adult men and women were only wrapped in thin animal skins, and the younger children could only spend their days curled up in huts.
At this time, he naturally knew what the child was asking before.
It's all frozen like that, I guess I want to be warm and crazy.
Lin Ji asked: "Is there enough food to survive the winter?"
The old man pulled the corners of his mouth and smiled: "Yes, there are many." ” He took Lin Ji and the others to the two wooden flute houses side by side, pushed the door open, and let Lin Ji see the mountains of dried meat and stems inside.
Lin Ji made a slight estimate and felt that it was okay, as long as 300 people starved to death, these were indeed enough to eat until the beginning of spring.
The old man had no experience in managing such a large tribe and didn't know how to calculate, so he couldn't be blamed for that.
And these people won't all starve to death.
Now that it has just entered winter, after a few days, the old man will find that there is less than half of the food, so he will naturally let everyone go out to forage for food.
When the time comes, the food supply will be reduced, and the men will go out hunting in the snow, and the women and children will eat the bark and the roots of the grass.
After the beginning of spring, more than half of these people may survive, but it is difficult to say whether this tribe is still there.
Thinking about this, Lin Ji sighed secretly.
It seems that the responsibility of becoming someone else's totem is not small.
First of all, he couldn't watch these people freeze and starve to death too much.
Secondly, this is Hu Yi'er's hard work, and this tribe naturally cannot be dispersed.
Lin Ji followed the old man back to the wooden house where he lived, and asked about Hu Yi'er's situation, planning to find a way to solve the problem in front of him after understanding the whereabouts of Hu Yi'er and Jiao Ke.
The old man said: "Yi'er killed the flower snake here, gathered several surrounding tribes, left Jiaoke, and went down the river."
Walking together were Pingli, Pi Jiaoer and the other two warriors from this side. ” "They say it took them only a few days to get here from Kirin, and from the map you gave them, it should be a few days before they reach the beach.
We thought they would be back in about a month.
The full moon did not return, and we guessed that it might take time for them to get salt, so we were not in a hurry.
After three months, they didn't come back, and Jiao Ke and I felt that it was inappropriate, so we sent someone to inform Human, and Jiao Ke himself took people to the east into the sea. ” "Now Jok has also been gone for two months, and there is no news."
Judging from the maps of later generations, there are about 500 kilometers into the sea here.
Of course, because the glacier has not disappeared now, the sea level may be lower than in later generations, and the estuary may be farther away.
However, it is only a distance of five or six hundred kilometers, and if it goes well, with the physique of Jiaoke, it should have already gone back and forth.
Both groups of people have not been heard from, and it is difficult to say what is strange in this.
Lin Ji asked, "Is there anyone in the tribe who has ever been downstream?"
The old man said, "I also plan to let people look for it again, so I asked for one, and I asked him to come." ” The old man asked him to go out and call someone, and after a while, a wooden man about forty years old came.
In later generations, forty-year-olds are basically still in the prime of life, and they have nothing to do with old age.
At the age of forty at this time, he was already full of wind and frost.
In addition, there was no habit of repairing hair at this time, and the people who came looked almost the same as the sixty-year-old homeless man in the later generations.
This man's name is Dai Jia because he likes to tie a tortoise shell of about 20 centimeters around his chest.
The tortoise shell was polished and smooth, and it was now tied to the skin.
When he came in, he just nodded slightly, and then stood aside and didn't talk much.
After the old man's introduction, he looked at Lin Ji and his group with a slight scrutiny.
Lin Ji asked: "Have you been downstream?"

"Hmm."
Dai Jia's answer was only one word.
"How far have you been, when have you been there?"
Lin Ji continued.
"I may have seen the sea you mentioned."
Dai Jia jumped out of Lin Ji's inquiry, and said another sentence, which is what the old man meant after translation.
"I can take someone to find Yi'er, but you guys don't go."
Dai Jia took the initiative to say again, this time the old man almost didn't want to take the initiative to translate, and even wanted to beat him.
"Why?"
asked the old man curiously after forcibly translating.
"Because you kids can't get there."
This time, the old man really didn't translate, but directly picked up a wooden stick and hit Dai Jia indiscriminately.
Underestimate the totem, which is a sin in any tribe.
Although Tiger Lynbald did not explicitly regard the forest trails as a totem, the old man just couldn't see that anyone despised the forest trails.
Lin Ji grabbed the old man and forcibly asked for a translation again.
After hearing the answer, everyone laughed dumbly.
Lin Ji smiled: "We are indeed children, but we will not experience less than you."
Let's put it this way, we know the purpose of wearing a tortoiseshell on your chest, because we have it too.
And we have a lot more equipment than that. ” Lin Ji turned over the leather armor and showed the armor the copper plate inlaid on the chest, as well as the back.
Then he picked up the tempered helmet and showed it to Dai Jia.
Then he showed him several layers of elephant skin glued together, and the protective leather armor was divided in various places.
After the elephant skin and cowhide are hammered, and then glued together layer by layer with fish glue, it will become a tough leather armor, and even the wooden bow is difficult to shoot through.
The few people who came out used this kind of leather armor to protect the vital parts.
After showing Dai Jia this, Stone Beak shot two arrows at a tree outside the door without saying a word.
Both arrows were driven into the trunk of the tree.
Many people outside ran over to check.
In the room, Dai Jia's expression gradually changed when he saw this, and asked, "Then when are we leaving":
