Only then did Lao Cui realize that he had made a mistake. He laughed and said, what can be seen from such a small tree?
After speaking, he took out his long knife and chopped down a tree trunk about fifteen or six centimeters in diameter next to him.
With a CHUA sound, the tree trunk was broken with a smooth blade.
Tang Ping then explained: "That red stone can be smelted into steel and then made into weapons like this."
The two teenagers Hongshi and Wuyun looked at the tree that Lao Cui cut down, Σ(⊙▽⊙!
Of course, reading is indispensable for their tribe. It would take them several times to cut a gap in such a thick tree with a stone axe.
The shiny weapon this man used actually cut it in half.
Tang Ping handed his short knife to Lao Du again and asked him to cook the dingo he had just shot.
Lao Du skinned off a wild dog with a few cuts.
Only then did Tang Ping smile and say, "I can give you this short knife. Believe me, I really have no ill intentions."
"Because our place is too far away from here, if our people come here to dig out red stones and transport them back, we will spend more... and consume more food, but if we ask you to help, you can get enough Food, and our consumption, will become less.”
Tang Ping could see that Wu Yun had no scheming intentions, but the man named Hong Shi was very vigilant and accepted death, so he could only spend some words to convince him.
Wu Yun glanced at the short knife in Tang Ping's hand with greed, but said nothing and just looked at Hongshi.
"Do you really have a lot of food?" Hongshi asked.
"Really!" Tang Ping nodded: "If you don't believe it, you can go to our place first and have a look. If we wanted to hurt you two, we didn't have to save you just now. Do you think this is true?"
Hongshi thought for a moment and nodded and said, "If you really have enough food, I can take you to the tribe."
These people did not show any ill intentions, and the important thing was that the tribe's food was always not enough.
If they were really willing to exchange food for those red stones, then the tribe would be much better off this winter.
"Okay!" Tang Ping asked the two of them to follow and prepare to go to where they parked their cars.
"That
Can... can we take this away? Wu Yun stopped Tang Ping and asked.
Tang Ping looked at the wild dog carcass on the ground that he pointed at and said with a smile: "Okay, Old Cui and Old Du will help them get it!"
Then another chip was added: "Hongshi, you can ask Wu Yun how we killed these wild dogs just now. As long as you are willing to help, I can let our people teach you how to make this weapon."
Hongshi was also puzzled about how those wild dogs were killed, and then Wuyun started to explain to him while dancing.
It's not that far from where they parked in a straight line. It only takes about an hour to walk.
Tang Ping touched his stomach and said, "I happen to be hungry too. Let's get something to eat."
This steam locomotive is similar to a pickup truck. It has five seats in the front and a body in the back. There is a lot of supplies in the body.
In order to show that he had abundant food, Tang Ping asked Lao Cui and others to set up a pot and cook a pot of porridge using the rice in the car.
Xue Rengui shot two Australian ostriches with two arrows and roasted them.
After the food was ready, Lao Cui and the others were not surprised to see the two of them devouring it.
A few years ago, when the Tang Dynasty was still in chaos, everyone did not have enough to eat. This was not always the case.
After eating, Hongshi looked at the long bow on Xue Rengui's back and the long knife on Lao Cui's waist and said, "Can you agree to exchange some of these weapons with us?"
In addition to traps, they usually use wooden javelins and a tree vine tied with stones.
The efficiency is many times worse than Xue Rengui's two arrows just now.
"Hey, this kid still knows how to teach people...what's the purpose?" Lao Cui asked Li Bai.
Li Bai said with a smile: "It is better to teach a man to fish than to teach him to fish."
"Yes, yes, yes!" Lao Cui nodded: "How can the food given by others compare with the ability to get food yourself? This guy is a character."
Tang Ping said with a smile: "We can't give you too many weapons like this, but as a meeting gift, I can give your tribe ten long knives and ten pairs of bows and arrows."
Afraid that the other party wouldn't know how to count, he stretched out his ten fingers when he spoke.
Hongshi hesitated for a moment and finally nodded and said, "Okay, I'll take you to the tribe."
He saw what Tang Ping and the others were hunting today.
Means, those wild dogs and Australian ostriches were shot from a distance. If my tribe had such ability, there would really be no shortage of food on this grassland.
And it's better to make friends with them now than to be discovered by them later.
After all, their tribe is not too small and they cannot move around at will.
"Then, you just said you would give this to us, does that count?" Wu Yun looked at the short knife on Tang Ping's waist with greedy eyes.
Tang Ping smiled and took off his short knife, asked for another one from Lao Cui, and each of them gave one to them: "This is my gift to you."
"Tang, you are so kind, you love giving gifts so much!"
Wuyun happily pulled out his short knife and inserted it back.
Or just chop at the weeds on the roadside.
"Be careful and don't hurt yourself." Tang Ping said and looked at Hongshi: "The injuries you just suffered were bitten and scratched by wild dogs. There is a certain possibility of leaving sequelae. Do you still need our treatment? "
He was talking about rabies. Hongshi was bitten by a wild dog. Who knows if there is rabies virus? The incubation period of that thing is not short.
"Treatment?" Hongshi moved his body and said, "I feel that apart from the pain in the wound, there are no other problems."
Tang Ping thought about how to explain before saying: "Actually, there is a kind of poison in the saliva of wild dogs. If he bites you, the poison will enter your body. But this kind of poison is a bit special. It may have an attack or It may not happen. But if it does, you'll probably die!"
Wuyun's face turned pale, and then he pulled Hongshi and said, "Uncle Damu seemed to have been bitten by a wild dog last time. Nothing happened at first, but he suddenly died in pain two months later. Do you still remember?"
Hongshi was stunned after thinking about it. At that time, no one in the tribe knew what happened to Uncle Damu. It was only after hearing what Tang Ping said that he remembered that he had indeed been bitten by a wild dog.
Looking at the professional bandage on his body, he nodded and said: "Thank you, Tang, please help me treat it."
Tang Ping nodded to Lao Cui, who took out the rabies vaccine and syringe from the medicine box in the trunk, and said with a smile:
"Don't worry, although my injection skills are not very good, it won't be painful."
Half a minute later, all the animals nearby were startled by a sharp howl.
