Universal Boiling Water（）
The sun was setting in the west, and it was dusk again.
Flame Horn brought a group of people out of the forest and finally returned to the tribe before nightfall.
At this moment, there were already a lot of hollow logs piled up in the open space in the center of the tribe. There were about three to four hundred of them.
Blacktooth wiped the sweat off his forehead and said,"Chief, we still need some hollow wood. Why don't I bring some people to bring some back?”
"No need. Tomorrow, I'll get someone to carve a 'groove' at the collection site. It'll be closer to the water source.”Flame Horn shook his head and said. There were still some hollow logs that hadn't been brought back.
Moreover, it was too dangerous to enter the forest at night. If they were not careful and encountered a purebred ferocious beast, they were afraid that it would be a disaster.
"Alright, then we'll leave early tomorrow.”Blacktooth said seriously.
"Chieftain, I think we should leave a totem warrior in the tribe.”
Big Melon reminded him," The shaman is still in the tribe. Without the protection of the totem warriors, it's too dangerous."”
"Right, we have to leave a totem warrior in the tribe.”Blacktooth hurriedly nodded.
The shaman had gone to the forest this morning. This had really frightened them. If something happened to the shaman, they would have no face to face their ancestors.
"There are too few totem warriors."
Flame Horn nodded helplessly." Then Blacktooth will stay. I'll go with Big Melon and Frog Crow tomorrow."”
"I'll stay." Mai Mang's weak voice sounded behind them.
The Fire Dragon Tribe was located in a remote area, and no one paid attention to them. A totem warrior in the tribe could serve as a warning.
"Maimang, how are you feeling?" Flame Horn turned around and asked with concern.”
"It's nothing serious. I'm just a little weak. I'll recover after eating a few more pieces of meat.”Mai Mang waved his hand and said indifferently.
"You're lucky to have met a shaman.”Blacktooth teased.
" Ha…" Maimang smiled with lingering fear and sighed,""I really thought I was going to die. Fortunately, there was a shaman.”
Flame Horn looked around and asked,"Where are the croaks?"”
"He went to patrol." Mai Mang said in a deep voice.
"One person is too little."
Flame Horn thought of the tribe's ancestral land and the sneak attack by the Black Snake Tribe. He said in a deep voice,""Big Melon, you go patrol too."
Although it was a little self-deceiving, two totem warriors would definitely not be able to protect the entire tribe, but at least it would give them a sense of security and drive away some of the peeping hybrid beasts.
"Alright." Big Melon nodded calmly and turned to walk into the forest.
"Why did you bring back so many hollow logs?”Mai Mang asked curiously.
"You don't know, right? These hollow logs are good stuff.”Black Teeth bared his sharp teeth.
"Good stuff? Did the shaman order this?" Mai Mang asked curiously.
" Yes, the hollow wood can transport water to our tribe…" Blacktooth vividly described what had happened today.
“………”
"Father, you're back." Yan Hua hurriedly came forward, her expression extremely nervous.
Yan Jiao saw his daughter's anxious appearance and said anxiously,"What's wrong? Did something happen to the shaman?"
"No, Wu is fine." Yan Hua rolled her eyes and began to talk about the small bugs in the water.
Flame Horn was stunned when he heard this. His expression started to change. He gritted his teeth and said,"Damn it, my fire should have been killed by those little bugs.”
Yan Huo, Yan Jiao's first child, died of an illness when he was three years old. This was also a pain in his heart.
Mai Mang and Blacktooth also heard the bull-horned lady's story.
"There are actually invisible bugs in the water. How can there be such a strange thing?”Blacktooth said bitterly, his palm subconsciously touching his stomach.
" My wife, could it be…" Mai Mang's eyes were red. One night seven years ago, his wife suddenly spat out white foam and died.
"Huff huff…"
Yan Jiao took a few deep breaths and suppressed the sadness in his heart as he looked at the people gathered around him.
He suddenly stepped forward and stood on a pile of hollow wood. With a serious face, he shouted,"From today onwards, everyone in the tribe must boil their water. If anyone doesn't boil their water, I'll beat him up.”
Silence.
Everyone in the tribe looked at Flame Horn in confusion. Some people were very unhappy with this order. Why was drinking water so troublesome?
"This is the shaman's order. If anyone disobeys, I'll beat them up too.”Blacktooth suddenly shouted.
"It's the shaman's order, we'll definitely listen.”
"Why do you have to boil water? That's too hot."
"Shut up. The shaman must have his reasons for doing this.”
“………”
The crowd started discussing. Most people trusted Wu unconditionally. This was the prestige accumulated by generations of Wu. Only a small number of people were showing off, but they only dared to say a few words.
Flame Horn heaved a sigh of relief and shouted,"Everyone, start eating. It's time to get to work. We have to deal with these hollow logs tonight.”
After he finished shouting, he turned to Blacktooth and said,"Give everyone some jerky."
"Alright." Blacktooth nodded.
"Father, the tribe doesn't have that many stone pots to boil water.”Yan Hua reminded in a small voice.
This was also the reason why she was in a hurry to find Flame Horn. Otherwise, she would have already passed down the order.
The only container that could boil water in the tribe was the stone pot. However, there were very few stone pots in the tribe now. The remaining one or two stone pots were made in the past ten days for the old witch to stew meat.
There were seventy-two people in the Fire Dragon Tribe, and the number of stone pots needed to boil water was not small. In primitive society, there were no ironware. It would take two to three days for a stone craftsman to chisel one.
"Let's go and meet the shaman."
Flame Horn turned to Yan Hua and Mai Mang and said,"Maybe the shaman has a way."
"Alright."
