Chapter 219 Cobalt Square Stone

By the time Zhou Wutian returned to the tribe from the top of the mountain, the men, women, and young people in the tribe had already gathered outside the tribe to wait. Because the tribe was in a very superior position, they could almost see all the signs on this side of the mountain. Therefore, as soon as the team returned from the hunt appeared in their sight, they were noticed by the people in charge of guarding the tribe, and they passed the message to all the people in the tribe early.

For the tribe, every time the hunting team returns, it is the most celebrated day in the tribe. On the one hand, because new prey is transported back, people can enjoy the food without restraint. On the other hand, the hunting team can also return to reunite with their families in the tribe, which is something worth celebrating in all aspects.

"Big Brother, where have you been?" Because everyone in the tribe was staring at the crowd who were hunting, few people noticed Zhou Wutian's existence. Zhou Wutian tried not to attract others' attention, but unexpectedly, he was still spotted by the sharp-eyed little flower.

"Be good." Zhou Wutian stepped forward and rubbed Xiaohua's head, and stood in the welcome team with her.

The mountain where the tribe is located is very steep and has a very wide area. Even when Zhou Wutian saw the hunting team coming back from the top of the mountain and had already returned to the tribe, the hunting crowd had not yet returned to the tribe.

However, this does not affect the people in the tribe preparing to welcome them in advance. After all, this is one of the rare major events in the tribe. Even if they are born every few days, it still makes the people in the tribe look forward to it very much every time.

After waiting for about half an hour, the people around the tribe finally saw the hunting people slowly moving towards the tribe. At this time, some young children in the tribe could no longer hold back and ran straight towards the people returning from hunting, singing and dancing around them, and the people in the tribe were also waiting.

However, Zhou Wutian seemed to notice that the faces of these people who returned from hunting did not seem to be very good-looking, and the number of prey they carried on their shoulders did not seem to be very optimistic. It seemed that someone in the hunting team was injured, but they were covered up by their clothes and followed behind the team, which was not obvious, but this did not escape Zhou Wutian's eyes.

However, these tiny details were not noticed by the tribe's crowd, and the people returning from hunting were soon submerged in cheers. After the reception, the celebration dinner in the tribe was also in full swing.

According to the old man, in addition to celebrating the return of hunting, the tribal dinner was also to pray that the gods could bless the hunting team to capture a large number of prey and return safely every time.

Because the hunters were very tired, after the welcoming ceremony, they went home to rest, and the celebration dinner was prepared by the people who stayed in the tribe.

Although the distribution of food in the tribe is centralized, there are certain distribution rules. After the hunters return from hunting, all prey is concentrated and the prey is distributed according to the strength each person contributes to hunting. This allocation accounts for half of all prey. The other half is that the property belonging to the tribe is concentrated and sent to the care of someone.

Then, in addition to hunting people, those who stay in the tribe can receive some tasks from the deputy leader, including building tribes, preparing tools, etc. After completing these tasks, those who stay in the tribe can obtain prey to improve their own lives.

The purpose of this is to ensure that everyone in the tribe can work hard and eliminate the behavior of being lazy. Of course, if a person in a certain family is unable to complete the tribe's tasks due to special reasons, he will also gain prey from the tribe.

For example, the old man's family where Zhou Wutian is located is, the old man can't do much work when he is old. Xiaohua is too young and can only do some things to pick up wild fruits or firewood. The wild fruits and firewood they pick are not enough for their own use, let alone do things for the tribe. Therefore, this way, he will get some prey from the tribe. However, the prey obtained in this way can only barely fill his stomach.

Xiaohua is growing up. In order for Xiaohua to have more nutrition, the old man has received a lot of chopped wood from the tribe, hoping to exchange it for some food to help Xiaohua grow. However, the old man is too old and every time he takes over the job, it takes nearly a day to complete it. The work is also very slow, and he does not exchange for a lot of prey.

At the same time, because of Zhou Wutian's arrival later, the old man had to work harder to meet the food needs of the three people, which also forced the old man to work at night.

After Zhou Wutian woke up and learned about these situations, he took the initiative to take on the work of chopping wood for the old man. Although Zhou Wutian was still injured, it did not affect the physical gain brought by the five thunder golden body. It was quick and good to chop wood. It took less than half an hour to complete the work that the old man had to complete for a whole day, so the situation in the old man's family greatly improved.

However, the old man was worried about Zhou Wutian's injury, so he didn't take much work every day, which was enough to satisfy the level of fullness of the three of them. Moreover, when Zhou Wutian was chopping wood, the old man would also help and supervise, for fear that Zhou Wutian would be tired if he worked too much.

Today, because the tribe is about to hold a celebration dinner, the amount of firewood is naturally large, and these tasks have fallen on Zhou Wutian. The work of chopping firewood is effortless, so Zhou Wutian is enjoying it. However, the old man has been worried about Zhou Wutian's injuries, so he has been urging Zhou Wutian to rest.

"Ah, you are here, please sit down, please sit down." Zhou Wutian was slashing at the firewood when he suddenly heard the voice of the old man at the door. He then looked at it. The strongest man in the hunting team was walking towards this place. The yard of this family was not big, so the tribe walked in front of Zhou Wutian in less than two steps.

"Young man, let me introduce you to you. This is our great tribal leader and the strongest person in our tribe." The old man's voice was a little trembling and excitement.

"Hello." Zhou Wutian put down his work, pressed his hand on his chest, and greeted the leader in the form of a tribe.

However, what surprised Zhou Wutian was that after saying hello, the leader clasped his fists and said, "Fortunately, outsiders, I will do it." Then, the leader said something to the old man, and the old man hurriedly took Xiaohua out.

Seeing this leader’s behavior, Zhou Wutian naturally felt a little strange, and his vigilance naturally emerged.

"Can you help us?" Before Zhou Wutian could ask, the leader knelt down on one knee and asked Zhou Wutian for help.

"What are you doing?" Zhou Wutian didn't expect that the leader would do this suddenly, and was slightly caught off guard, so he hurried forward and wanted to help him up.

"I know you have this ability, please help us." The leader continued to ask Zhou Wutian without any intention of getting up.

"Okay, if I can do anything, I will do my best to help you, and please get up." Zhou Wutian saw that he couldn't persuade him, so he agreed to the request, but he didn't agree very much.

"Thank you, thank you." Ling stood up and said slowly.

"I don't know, what do you want me to help?" Zhou Wutian asked.

"I think you should have seen that this time the result of our hunting was very bad. Not only were there very few prey, but the members were injured. I don't know if the next hunt could reach the level of this hunt." said the leader. "This is where I hope you can help us."

"But, how do you know that I have the ability to help you?" Zhou Wutian asked curiously.

"I have learned about your affairs from the deputy leader, and he recommended it to me." The leader said, "He said that one day you suddenly fell into our tribe in mid-air, and your injuries were almost dead at that time. Even the deputy leader of the tribe who knows the best knowledge of medicine was helpless. But in just a few days, you were so strong, not only recovering so quickly, but also being able to complete the work of chopping wood. These are enough to prove your strength."

"Well, what you said is right, I have enough abilities, but why are you so sure I will definitely help you?" Zhou Wutian asked.

"Because you have agreed just now, right?" said Ling. "You will definitely keep your promise."

"You are worthy of being a leader." Zhou Wutian looked at the leader and couldn't help but be impressed by his wisdom. "I have another question, why do you believe such an outsider as me?" Zhou Wutian asked. Zhou Wutian knew that the trust given by the leader was definitely not baseless. Only people who were too simple in this world would blindly trust others, but this tribe could exist for so long, and there would never be a problem of blind trust.

"Although you come from outside, you have reached the top of the mountain and are recognized by the gods." The leader said solemnly, "Climbing to the top of this mountain means the recognition of the gods and the qualification to become a tribal leader."
