Chronicles of Primordial Wars

Chapter 96 A Gift for the Witch

With the end of the last hunt, the temperature gradually dropped.

Shao Xuan dragged his last hunting prey this year and walked down from the top of the mountain.

The weather is getting colder, and winter will be ushered in in about 30 days. Put a part of the food in the tribal cave, and take the rest down the mountain.

Another hunting party is ready to go out, they have to hurry up, when they come back, it is believed that winter is about to officially arrive.

Lao Ke was meeting friends on the mountain. Caesar stayed there and carried his old man down the mountain. As for the chacha, Shao Xuan saw it flying in the sky when he returned to the tribe. .

As soon as he got home and entered the door, Shao Xuan saw an eagle lying on the stone table. The eagle's head was hanging on the edge of the stone table. He turned over and jumped off the stone table, and when he flapped his wings, the surrounding wooden chairs were beaten up and down.

Having grown up so much, Chacha still retains the habit of when he was a child, lying on the stone table when he has nothing to do, tossing all the things that were originally on the stone table to the ground.

Looking at the eagle pushing over, Shao Xuan cut a piece of animal meat and threw it over, "Go out and eat!"

Even if the house has been expanded, it can't bear it's wings in the house.

After Cha Cha left with the meat in his mouth, Shao Xuan planned to process the animal meat and marinate it. He looked at the stone jars in the kitchen and it was full.

The kitchen is a room specially separated by Shao Xuan. There is a simple stone stove in it, which is more convenient than a stone pot.

Remembering that there was an empty stone jar in the corner, Shao Xuan walked over to take a look. There was an old stone jar, which was brought by Lao Ke. It was quite old. The mouth of the jar was cracked, and it couldn't hold much water at all. It was just temporarily set aside and planned to hold other things.

There was a wooden lid on the stone jar, which had not been moved for a while, and was covered with a layer of ash.

Shao Xuan lifted the wooden cover and looked inside, but saw a guy the size of a washbasin quietly staying inside, with many jagged spines on his back. The water in the stone jar only slightly covered its back.

Seeing it, Shao Xuan remembered.

This turtle was caught in the fish fence when the tide was high in the two moons. Shao Xuan asked Lang Ga to keep the stew for him. Later, Lang Ga brought it, and Shao Xuan threw it directly into the stone tank of Lao Ke's house. Later, because of a series of things such as hunting, building a house, and moving house, it was put on hold. Shao Xuan almost forgot about it, and Lao Ke didn't eat it, and it has been put to the present.

Do the math, it's now the end of the year, and it's been half a year, and it's been kept in there, and it's not starving to death!

Probably hungry and lacking in energy, Shao Xuan poked it twice with a wooden stick, and it only moved slightly.

Why don't you stew it today? Shao Xuan thought.

Just thinking about whether to stew it today or keep it for a few days, Lao Ke has come back with Caesar.

Seeing Lao Ke coming in, Shao Xuan asked, "You said, do we eat it today, or keep it for a few days before eating it?"

"Huh? This is still there!" Lao Ke was surprised.

When Lang Ga brought the turtle over, he didn't say that Shao Xuan was going to kill it and eat it. In addition, there were Caesar and Chacha in front of him. Lao Ke thought that Shao Xuan wanted to keep it for fun. I have two, and one more is not new.

So after putting it in the stone jar, Lao Ke just added some water every once in a while, and threw some meat dregs when he had time. He thought that Shao Xuan would take care of it.

Little did he know that Shao Xuan had long forgotten it. Later, after the house was expanded and moved in, Lao Ke asked about the turtle again, only to realize that Shao Xuan did not intend to raise it, but just kept it as food, so he did not continue to feed it. Food and pets are treated differently.

In the past, Lao Ke thought that pets were backup food. Later, after spending a long time with Caesar and Chacha, he also developed some feelings. Every day, Caesar carried him around, and naturally he was reluctant to let Caesar starve. However, the food was different. Human thinking, since it is food, why should I waste food to feed it?

Once put on hold, it is now.

"Yeah, this was the time when the river swelled up after the full moon before. It was caught by a fish fence by the river. I asked Lang Ga to keep it for me to cook and eat, and then I forgot it when I was busy. " Shao Xuan said.

"I haven't fed it for a long time, and it's still alive!" Lao Ke said with emotion. After all, they weren't short of food, they didn't finish the food in the stone jars in front of them, let alone the stone jar in the corner.

"This kind of creature is hungry, has a long lifespan, and is not easy to die." Shao Xuan said, and threw a piece of freshly cut animal meat into it.

The originally shriveled turtle immediately bit on it. When the eagle hooked its mouth hard to bite the meat, because it was too hard, after biting the meat, it pecked on the wall of the stone tank, making a thud.

Shao Xuan looked at the inner wall of the stone jar and found that there were various scratches and bite marks on the inner wall. If it wasn't for the thick wall of the stone jar, it would have been pecked through long ago. Perhaps, more than half of the cracks on the stone jar are due to it.

"Why don't you just eat it today?" Shao Xuan turned to ask Lao Ke, but found that Lao Ke was staring at the turtle in the stone jar, wondering what he was thinking.

"A Xuan." Lao Ke stared at the turtle inside and said.

"what?"

"Didn't you say that you are going to study with Wu in the mountains in winter?" Lao Ke asked.

"That's the plan, Wu also agreed." Shao Xuan said.

"You can dedicate it to the witch." Lao Ke raised his finger and pointed to the turtle that became active after eating the meat in the stone jar, and said.

"Dedicated to the witch?"

The witch is not short of food, so why is it so rare?

But soon, Shao Xuan also reacted. Lao Ke thought that the meaning of this turtle was very good, just like what Shao Xuan said just now, "longevity" and "immortality".

Shao Xuan didn't know what the turtle's meaning was here, but in the past life, many people indeed regarded the turtle as a symbol of longevity and immortality, and this turtle was indeed very strong. Peck the tank hard, otherwise, such a stone tank may not be able to trap it.

Think about it, when he caught it, Lang Ga tossed the prey trapped by the fish fence for a while, and then brought it over and starved it for a long time. For nearly half a year, it really didn't eat much. But he still survived tenaciously, which also made Lao Ke believe in the meaning of "longevity and immortality" that Shao Xuan said.

The people of the tribe always feel that the people of the tribe should dedicate it to the people they respect, and Lao Ke is naturally one of them. In addition, Shao Xuan wants to learn from Wu, which is a kind of honor in his opinion. The turtle, which symbolizes longevity and immortality, is dedicated to the witch, of course.

Seeing Lao Ke's insistence, Shao Xuan would not insist on eating it, anyway, there is no shortage of food.

"Okay, next time I go up the mountain to find a witch, I'll take it with me," Shao Xuan replied.

Hearing this, Lao Ke smiled, "Before that, you have to take good care of it."

Lao Ke felt that the things dedicated to Wu must be in excellent condition, otherwise they would not show their sincerity.

So, after serving delicious food for ten days, Shao Xuan grabbed the turtle's back with both hands, turned it belly out, and half held it up the mountain.

on the mountain.

Wu Zheng was sitting in the stone house, holding an animal writing brush and recording something on the animal skin roll. Hearing that Shao Xuan came to offer food, he was a little curious. After all, Shao Xuan's hunting team returned to the tribe for so many days, what can they offer now? ?

Putting down the pen, Wu raised his head and was about to say something when he saw the turtle in Shao Xuan's hand.

The skin on Wu's old face twitched, and what he was going to say was held back.

In the past, when other tribesmen came to offer food, they were all cut pieces of meat, and they were handled cleanly. When they came to Shao Xuan, they brought a turtle over, and it was still alive. This turtle had an eagle hook. Mouth, there are bits of wood chips around the mouth.

Obviously, this tortoise has a lot of destructive power. When Shao Xuan brought it in, he had a murderous look on his face.
