The Caveman Made Me Awesome

The afternoon sun is hot.

Ye Xi sat cross-legged in the shade at the entrance of the cave, holding a piece of snake skin and began to be embarrassed.

Making clothes by yourself is very simple in theory, but in practice it feels a bit overwhelming.

Ye Xi picked up a bone needle as thick as a pinky finger and thought about where to start sewing.

"Ye Xi, are you sewing a water bladder?"

A young and timid voice came from above.

Ye Xi raised his head and recognized it for two seconds. It turned out to be a pheasant eye.

The little girl used to be unkempt because of the lack of water in the tribe, but now after washing with water, her delicate face is revealed, which is completely different from her previous appearance.

"No, I want to make a dress."

"This piece of snake skin is very beautiful." The pheasant looked at the snake skin and her eyes flashed. With her hands behind her back, she dragged the ground with her feet, and hesitantly said, "I, can I touch it?"

"My hands are very clean!" Pheasant added hurriedly, and even spread out his hands and put them in front of Ye Xi's eyes to show him.

Ye Xi looked at her unexpectedly.

The pheasant saw that Ye Xi didn't speak, and thought he was unhappy, so he quickly waved his hand: "Then I won't watch it!"

Since Ye Xi solved the problem of fetching water for the tribe, Ye Xi has not seen the pheasant much. Now that she looks so trembling in front of him, she realizes that the pheasant may be hiding because she is afraid of herself.

Realizing that she had frightened the little girl, Ye Xi shoved the snake skin into her hand and said with a smile, "Here you go, feel free to touch it."

Pheasant froze for a moment, feeling something cold in his hand, and said, "Thank you."

She looked at the snake skin in her hand to and fro, her eyes glowing with love, and she couldn't stop saying, "Ah, this is really good material."

Ye Xi smiled and said, "I like snakeskin so much? I still have a lot. I'll give you one."

The giant python was killed by Ye Xi. According to the rules, Ye Xi could keep half of the python meat. The snake gall, snake skin and snake teeth were also decided by the chief and belonged to Ye Xi.

The python is so big, and there are a lot of python skins that have been peeled off. It's not a big deal to give a little girl.

The pheasant was taken aback and quickly said, "How can this be possible? I'm not here to ask for snake skin, I just see it's beauty, and think it would look good if made into clothes."

Ye Xi spread his hands: "That's it, then you should accept it, because the clothes I made are definitely not good-looking, and such good materials are wasted in vain."

Pheasant puzzled: "Since you can't do it well, why don't you let the women of the tribe do it?"

Ye Xi smiled bitterly: "I think so too, but they said they only sewed water bladders and never made clothes. They're afraid of wasting such a precious snake skin."

Pheasant frowned, bit his lip, gritted his teeth for a while and said, "Why don't you give it to me, I'll do it!"

Ye Xi raised an eyebrow.

After the first sentence was uttered, the pheasant seemed to have loosened something, and the whole person became firm and repeated: "I'll do it, I'll do it well."

Ye Xi looked at her and didn't speak. Under the increasingly anxious eyes of the pheasant, he stood up, turned and disappeared into the depths of the cave, and soon came out holding a pile of snake skins like a hill.

Then he couldn't help but shove it all to the pheasant.

He smiled and said, "This is all for you, don't be afraid, do it with confidence and boldness, and don't be afraid of waste."

The pheasant stood in the same place holding the snake skin in a daze, the light in his eyes became more and more blazing, half a sound, nodded heavily, and replied with a smile: "Yeah!"

"Ye Xi, Ye Xi! Ye Xi!" At this moment, a hurried shout came from outside the entrance of the cave.

Ye Xi and Zhi Mu turned their heads to look at the same time.

The next moment, a soldier with flushed cheeks rushed in like a gust of wind from outside the cave with a bag on his back.

The soldier put down the animal skins, his chest heaved and he looked at Ye Xi with rapid breathing, and said excitedly: "Ye Xi, I found it... I found it..."

Ye Xi didn't know whether to laugh or cry: "Uncle Luo,

You speak slowly and take a breath. "

This warrior also looked a bit old, with a hint of white on his temples. Ye Xi recognized that this warrior was the one who jumped down from the mountainside on the second day of his arrival in the tribe and almost threw him with a dirty face.

Obviously not a hairy boy, but he is still so excited that he can't even say the whole thing.

Luo took a deep breath and handed the animal skin bundle to Ye Xi: "See for yourself!"

Ye Xi curiously took the animal skin bag. What kind of treasure was it that made him so excited?

Unbuttoning the animal skin bag, I saw white clods inside.

Ye Xi was startled, this is... Could it be? The next moment, he was also excited, and in the surprised eyes of the pheasant, he twisted a piece of soil and put it in his mouth.

"Yeah!" Luo held his breath, his eyes blazing with fiery light, staring at Ye Xi.

Ye Xi tasted it carefully, and the soil in his mouth was indeed salty! His eyes also lit up, and he said without hesitation, "Yes!"

Hearing Ye Xi's affirmation, Luo was so excited that he had nowhere to vent but turned around with his fists raised in excitement.

The chief instructed the warriors to look for salty clods or stones when hunting. Most warriors did not understand why, and Luo was one of the few warriors who knew the inside story, so he was so excited when he found the salty soil, the prey He stopped fighting, and ran back from the jungle with the salt soil on his back.

Pheasant couldn't figure out the situation on the side, and listened to the puzzle-like dialogue between the two people in confusion.

Ye Xi took a breath and calmed down a little: "Uncle Luo, where did you find it, it's not far from the tribe, how much salt soil like this is there?"

Luo was still very excited, and said incoherently: "A lot, it's not far, it's a little farther than fetching water."

Although Luo's words were disordered, Ye Xi still understood it, knowing that the salt soil was abundant and not far from the tribe, and was overjoyed: "In this case, Uncle Luo, go and report to the chief, there is hope for our tribe's salt! "The last sentence was deliberately suppressed.

Hearing that the salt could be made, Ye Xi said what Luo is now: "Alright, alright, I'll go right away."

After Luo left, the pheasant looked curiously at the clod wrapped in animal skin on the ground and asked Ye Xi: "What is this, are you talking about salt? Does it have anything to do with this soil?"

Ye Xi squatted down and touched the clods. He was in a good mood. Hearing the pheasant's question, he sold it off with a smile: "Well... keep it a secret for now."

Pheasant pouted secretly.

After a while, the chief and Luo Xing rushed over.

The chief ran very fast, walking all the way, the complicated bone decorations on his body rattled, and Luo buried his head and struggled to chase after him.

"Where is it!" The chief roared at Ye Xi as soon as he arrived, and was so frightened that the clansmen at the entrance of the cave shook all over, and all their eyes came together.

Realizing that he was speaking too loudly, and causing everyone to look over, the chief took a deep breath, waved his hand and whispered to Ye Xi and Luo: "Let's go, let's talk in another place."

Ye Xi couldn't help grinning when he saw that the always calm chief was so out of his mind. After seeing the chief and the others, they quickly put away their smiles, as if nothing had happened, and said sternly, "Let's go."

The three came to a secluded place.

The chief has calmed down and tasted the clods in the animal skin bag: "It does have a salty taste."

He turned his head and asked Ye Xi, with a solemn expression: "Is this soil really usable? Can you make salt?"

Ye Xi nodded: "Don't worry, you can."

Although he heard Luo say it and confirmed it with Ye Xi again, the chief finally had some idea in his heart and heaved a sigh of relief: "Okay, what should I do after that?"

Ye Xi pondered for a while and said, "Help me prepare a few things."

Chief: "You said." Even if he wanted to hunt a beast in the jungle, he agreed.

"Help me prepare some grass, the longer the better, and some wood chips, cut into long strips."

The chief and Luo listened attentively, thinking that there was still more, but after waiting for a while, Ye Xi did not speak again. The chief and Luo Yi were stunned, and asked in unison, "That's all?"

Ye Xi snorted: "That's all, these are ready, the other tribes should have."

The chief and Luo looked at each other.

The atmosphere was eerily silent for a moment.

After a while, the chief spoke up to break the silence: "I will instruct others to do it later, and it will be done soon."

Ye Xi nodded: "There's no need to hurry, it can be done tomorrow."

Then the atmosphere fell into silence again. Seeing the twinkling eyes of the two who wanted to say something and then held back, Ye Xi raised an eyebrow.

The chief asked carefully, "Ye Xi, can this method really make salt?"

Did you just think about this? Ye Xi reassured them with a smile: "If you don't believe me, you should also believe my teacher. Since you were able to solve the water problem with that method last time, why are you worried about not being able to solve the salt problem?"

As soon as the witch was lifted out, they seemed to have taken a reassurance pill, and their originally uneasy hearts immediately fell back. The two of them thought about it again.

The two looked happy again, and the chief thought of something and hurriedly added to Ye Xi: "Ye Xi, I didn't question the witch's intentions, I just asked casually."

Ye Xi shook his head with a smile and said he didn't mind. In fact, he could understand that the method sounded simpler. It was normal for them to be worried, but it was often the simplest and the most practical.
