This Is My Primitive Tribe Chapter 66

After the wild boar is transported back to the tribe, the first thing to be picked off is the wild boar skin. This thick and tough animal skin is a good thing for the tribe people.

Then there are the internal organs. Although it is winter, it is not easy to spoil, but they must be eaten as soon as possible.

Then there's the huge amount of wild boar meat that the Fuji tribe can eat for a long time.

Then there are the bones.

Because these wild boars are large and their bones are large and hard, they are very suitable for making various bone weapons and tools.

For example, the scapula can be used to make bone stalks, and the leg bones can be used to sharpen bone spears, bone knives, etc.

Finally, what Jiang Xuan is most interested in - the sharp and hard tusks of wild boars.

The fangs are the hardest part of the beast's body.

Relatively small beast fangs, tribal people like to use to make various accessories, such as animal tooth necklaces, bracelets, etc.

Larger tusks, such as gigantic tiger tusks, are ground into dental knives by tribesmen, which are not only sharp enough, but also beautiful.

However, when Jiang Xuan struggled to smash the wild boar's skull open and take off the fangs, the situation in front of him disappointed him a little.

"This thing can't make a dental knife."

The tusks of the wild boar are elongated triangular pyramids, but the middle part is hollow, and the hollow is very strong, and the inside is soft pulp.

Secondly, the fangs of the wild boar are very curved, almost semi-circular, and it doesn't seem right to use any tools.

"Oh, it's a pity, it seems that it can only be used as a decoration."

Jiang Xuan helplessly put down the tusks of the wild boar, and when he was ready, he tried to drill a hole and make a tusk necklace.

However, Jiang Xuan did not give up the idea of ​​making a tooth knife, but the premise is to find suitable animal teeth.

"Goooooooooooo..."

Tao Dingli was cooking pig brain flower with some dried vegetables in it.

Pig brain flowers are nutritious and, like pig hearts, are usually given to people of higher status.

There is no doubt that the two people with the highest status in the Teng tribe are Jiang Xuan and Chishao, so the pig brain flowers of the three wild boars are all eaten for them.

Jiang Xuan turned over the dishes in Tao Ding with a long spoon, then looked at Chi Shao curiously, and said, "Sister, what are you doing?"

The red peony smashes small colored stones on a large flat stone, and then grinds them into powder.

These stones were picked up in the nearby mountains and forests. Jiang Xuan couldn't figure out what kind of stones they were. Some were red, some were brown, and some were black, with a softer texture.

Chishao said while smashing: "I'm going to use these stones as paint, and paint all the important things that happened in our tribe on the animal skin."

It is the responsibility of every tribal witch to record important things with pictures or texts.

Chi Shao is now also a witch of the Vine tribe, but she has the power of witchcraft, but she does not have a complete inheritance.

When she was a child, she had seen the witches of the deer tribe and used this method to record the events of the tribe, and she was going to do the same.

Jiang Xuan asked with interest: "What do you want to paint?"

Chishao thought for a while, and counted with her fingers: "I want to draw all the major events that we have experienced since the establishment of the rattan tribe, such as building a bamboo house, the appearance of rattan gods, being attacked by mosquito tribes, and reclaiming wasteland..."

After Chi Shao finished speaking, she was stunned, because there seemed to be a lot of content to draw.

Jiang Xuan was very interested: "Let's draw, draw them all. In the future, the Teng tribe will grow, and people who come later will be able to know what happened to the Teng tribe through these pictures."

These pictures are equivalent to the "history" of the tribe, which is very important for a tribe aspiring to grow and develop.

It allows people who join the tribe later, as well as the descendants of the tribe, to understand what happened in the tribe, remember those honors or lessons learned, and have a sense of identity and honor for the tribe.

Chishao nodded heavily and said, "When I finish grinding the paint, I will try it on the slate a few times before I paint it on the animal skin."

Animal skins are a very important material for tribal people. Chishao doesn't want to waste any animal skins, so she needs to be skilled at drawing on the slate first.

"My sister is very talented in painting. I believe you can paint well."

After Jiang Xuan's encouragement, he didn't bother Chi Shao anymore. He sat by the fire pond and looked at the beating flames and thought of another thing.

It would be great if you could make a map.

As soon as this idea came up, it quickly occupied Jiang Xuan's mind.

Maps are undoubtedly a very important tool.

It can condense a large area in reality into a small picture, so that people who have never been to this area can also understand this area through the map.

The tribesmen also occasionally drew rudimentary "maps" on the stone walls to record hunting routes, or to record other things.

However, this kind of map is extremely abstract. Generally, only the person who draws it can understand it. Others will be confused when they see it, and it is almost impossible to find the way according to the map.

Jiang Xuan intends to make a map that is simple and easy to understand. You can see at a glance where there are mountains and where there are rivers, lakes, swamps, etc.

Only such a map can really play its due role.

However, if you want to draw a map, in addition to marking the direction, it is best to mark the place name.

The Teng tribe has been here for a short time, and has not named the nearby mountains and rivers, but usually refers to the direction.

Jiang Xuan intends to determine the place name first.

Thinking of this, Jiang Xuan said to Nan Xing who was roasting the fire by the fire pond: "Go and find Gan Song and the others, I want to announce something."

"it is good!"

Nan Xing got up immediately and braved the heavy snow to call over the Teng tribe people who lived in other bamboo houses.

When all seventeen people arrived, Jiang Xuan expressed his thoughts.

"I brought everyone here today because I want to identify and unify the names of nearby places, so that where you will be sent in the future, you will be very clear as soon as you say the name of the place."

Everyone nodded in agreement.

Jiang Xuan thought for a while and said, "The first is the river in front of the tribe. I plan to name it Flying Fish River. What do you think?"

The reason why the Vine tribe was able to solve the food crisis was due to the flying fish that had wings and took the initiative to fly out during winter fishing.

A tribesman said excitedly: "Boss, this name is good, flying fish is delicious."

"Yes, yes, flying fish is much better than other fish."

When they thought of the deliciousness of flying fish, everyone immediately smiled. This fish is really delicious. The meat is more tender than other fish, and there are fewer spines. Everyone likes to eat it.

Jiang Xuan smiled and said, "Then it's decided, this river is called the Flying Fish River."

Later, Jiang Xuan announced other place names.

"The stone mountain behind the tribe~www.mtlnovel.com~ will be called Fujishen Mountain in the future."

"The mountain to the south of the tribe, called Thunder Mountain, commemorates the Thunder Tree we found."

"The mountain to the north of the tribe, called Wild Boar Mountain, commemorates the wild boars we caught."

After Jiang Xuan announced the place names one by one, everyone's mind became clearer about the landforms near the Veng tribe.

And these place names correspond to those impressive things, so they are easy to remember.

"I will draw a picture in the future, and draw the mountains, rivers, and swamps near our tribe on it. Everyone will read it a few times and remember it."

Although the tribal people don't know how to read, it doesn't matter, Jiang Xuan can use pictures instead.

For example, in Flying Fish River, draw a flying fish, Leiming Mountain, draw a thundering tree, Wild Boar Mountain, draw a wild boar, and so on.

After the announcement of the place name, the food in Tao Ding was almost cooked, everyone had a full meal, and then returned to their bamboo huts contentedly.
