I am a Primitive Man

Facing the inquiries from the people of the Green Tribe, the Eldest Senior Brother, and the others smiled without saying a word.

When the Divine Child initially told them about this method, they, too, raised similar questions. However, the reality proved that covering the outer side of the fur tents with thick snow was much warmer than leaving them uncovered.

As for the reasons behind it, the Divine Child had mentioned something about the tents becoming thicker or something like that, which the people didn't quite remember clearly, but the method was meticulously noted.

Now, amid the snowy night, they were putting it into practice.

Once the snow was piled up outside the tent and a fire was lit inside, the Green Tribe leader and the people quickly realized how mistaken their previous ideas had been.

Piling snow outside the tent not only didn't make it colder inside but made it warmer.

With such a simple method and readily available materials, they wondered why their tribe hadn't thought of it.

If they had known, they wouldn't have been so horribly frozen last night...

When asked who came up with such an excellent solution and found out it was the Divine Child again, the Green Tribe leader and the people couldn't help but be amazed.

At this moment, Han Cheng, who was preparing to sleep on the tribe's warm, heated bed, hugging the soft Bai Xue, did not know what the Green Tribe and others were thinking. If he knew, he would definitely show a wry smile.

It's not that I know too much, it's that you know too little. Many common sense things in future generations will become unprecedented here...

While the people of the Green Tribe were amazed by the warm snow caves, Senior Brother and the others remained busy.

Tie Tou was melting snow in pottery jars and boiling water.

This hot water wasn't for drinking, but after it was heated, it was sprinkled with salt and used to feed several deer, who bowed their heads and ate grass.

As more uses were developed, this group of deer also gained more attention from the people of the Green Sparrow tribe.

They were used for meat in the past, but now it's completely different.

So Tie Tou took care of these eight deer that came out to pull the plow very carefully.

Not only did he put salt in the hot water, but he also added some shelled millet to the grass they ate.

While Tie Tou fed the deer, Eldest Senior Brother and the others used ropes to wrap the trees around the snow-covered bags and encircled the place where they were going to rest.

Then they drew some rabbit traps placed around where they would rest...

The leader of the Green Tribe and the people of the Green Tribe looked at the busy Eldest Senior Brother and others individually.

"Isn't it enough to find a sheltered spot and light a fire when spending the night outside? Why go to all this trouble?"

However, they couldn’t deny that having these things made them feel much more at ease.

The leader of the Green Tribe and the others wanted to help, but they were unable to contribute much. They could only stand around wide-eyed or do the simplest tasks, like boiling water.

The people of this tribe knew so much and could make so many things...

This was the sentiment of all the Green Tribe members...

That night, the people of the Green Tribe slept soundly.

Lying in the warm snow caves, they realized for the first time that spending the winter outside, even in the cold, could be this comfortable...

The following day, after having their meal, they continued their journey toward the Green Tribe.

As they drew closer to their tribe, the Green Tribe members grew more excited. They had found a good place and no longer had to worry about the cold and hunger. The people waiting for them back at the tribe, hoping they’d return with food, would be overjoyed when they heard the news.

However, Shang was walking with a heavy heart. The familiar scene reminded him of what had happened to his tribe a few years ago.

He feared that the people of the Green Tribe might suffer the same fate as his tribe, with the stronger members away, leaving the rest vulnerable to being captured by evil forces.

Because of this, he kept urging the Eldest Senior brother to pick up the pace.

The Eldest Senior brother, aware of Shang’s past experiences and understanding his concerns, didn’t hesitate. He followed Shang’s suggestion and urged everyone to move faster, aiming to reach the Green Tribe as soon as possible.

This gesture moved the Green Tribe members once again...

The Green Tribe's cave was now in sight, and some members cheered as they ran toward it.

Shang's eyes kept scanning the area around the cave. Seeing no signs of disturbance, he finally relaxed.

He had been genuinely worried that the Green Tribe would meet the same tragic fate as his own.

As the tightly shut cave door opened, people rushed out from inside, cheering to welcome their returning kin. Watching this scene, Shang smiled, though his eyes were red with emotion...

"￥~"

Inside the Green Tribe's cave, where a large bonfire was burning, the elderly and children who had stayed behind, upon hearing that the leader had agreed to join the Green Sparrow Tribe, not only didn't feel sad but even cheered.

The kindness, wealth, and strength of the Green Sparrow Tribe had been well-known for years. Everyone had fantasized about how wonderful it would be to live in that tribe.

Now that their wish had come true, they were, of course, overjoyed.

The thick, golden millet porridge they were eating received endless praise. They had never imagined that what they once thought was tasteless wild grass could be so delicious.

The salted fish and meat soup were so good that they nearly swallowed their tongues.

With these two dishes as a base, they were even more eager to go to the well-known tribe they had heard so much about.

Watching their tribespeople smile broadly and greedily eat their food, the leader of the Green Tribe felt deeply that joining the Green Sparrow Tribe was the right decision...

After dinner, the Green Tribe members began to pack up their belongings.

Though "packing" wasn't the right word, there wasn't much to pack.

They wore everything they had.

There was almost no food left.

All that remained were a few pieces of pottery, which they had exchanged for many goods from the Green Sparrow Tribe.

The next day, after having breakfast in the Green Tribe's rather dirty cave, the senior brother and his group set out.

Aside from those pottery pieces, the only things the Green Tribe took with them were a few crude weapons.

The Eldest senior brother initially didn’t want them to bring the pottery since their tribe had plenty of it.

But the Green Tribe's leader insisted as they had traded for these items at a high cost.

Finally, they packed the heavy pottery, placed the smaller ones inside the larger ones, and loaded them onto the sleds, letting the deer pull them.

Some of the elderly and weak members of the Green Tribe, wrapped in the soft, thick furs that had been transported on the sleds, sat on what they saw as miraculous sleds, gradually moving away toward the best tribe they could imagine.

With a better place waiting for them, they didn’t feel much sadness about leaving the cave they had lived in for so long.

Only the Green Tribe's leader kept looking back at the open cave entrance, feeling a bit reluctant to leave.
