Strange father and strange mother(59)

Sure enough! If Lin Bo doesn't get eaten by Zhu Zhu in this life, he will be in trouble.

There is not much time left here, and the jungle has lost its appeal to Lin Yutong and Fourth Master. They did not bother Lin Bo and Zhu Zhu that day, got on the plane directly, and took the translator to visit nearby places.

The indigenous tribes.

The level of translation is not very good, and each tribe here retains its own cultural customs and a language that can be called dialects. When Fourth Master talks to their tribe leader, he has to make gestures with his mask and occasionally speak.

With one or two English words, you can barely communicate. There are some people in these tribes who can speak simple English. Of course, such people are generally capable people in the tribe. They occasionally go out of the tribe and communicate with people outside.

Some items of cloth and salt.

There are not many people in the tribe, only about a hundred in total. There are also nearly half of them old and weak. Most people will never leave their tribe in their lives. Lin Yutong walked in the tribe, it really seemed like

In primitive society, the houses are thatched huts, which are very low. After entering, you will find that there are no beds at all. An area of ​​more than ten square meters is covered with animal furs on one side. This is where the family should live.

There is a small fire pit in the middle, and there are signs of use. You know without asking that it is used for cooking and heating when the weather is bad. There is also a stove outside the house, both of which are earth stoves.

They didn't even build a shed. But they used iron pots anyway. When cooking on the fire pit in the house, they didn't use big iron pots, but very rough clay pots. Lin Yutong suspected that the clay pots were theirs.

They baked it by themselves. In such a primitive life, they found that they did not have a particularly persistent concept of storing food. The kind of fields at home that only scattered seeds and no longer took care of them were harvested as much as they could. To be honest, they did not water them.

Without deworming, the seeds are very old varieties of grain, and the yield is really not high. Lin Yutong visited several houses in a row, and each house had three or five large tanks that were half a person tall. What was stored was not edible directly.

Grain, such as rice, contains bran. Before cooking, the rice must be pounded in a stone mortar. The rice is pounded out, washed and put directly into the pot. As soon as the rice bran is scattered, free-range chickens come out to peck at it.

Chickens are the only poultry that Lin Yutong has seen in this tribe. They do not need to be fed. Each household only has the concept of a house, and it seems that there is no concept of a yard. In China, growing grass in a yard is desolate.

Here... the grass grows right next to the threshold. It is not for nothing that the grass grows and the birds fly. All kinds of insects are jumping on the grass, and the chickens can eat without any effort. But even if raising chickens is so easy, the people who raise chickens

The number didn't seem to be much. In a blink of an eye, Lin Yutong understood that these few chickens were probably just enough for the tribe to consume. Yes, they always adhered to the principle of being self-sufficient. The women went to the river to wash clothes.

You can easily catch a small fish. If you catch too many fish in a net, you can pick the big ones that are enough for your family to eat, and let the rest go. This also leads to the ratio of men in the tribe.

Women have more leisure time. Men only need to go out to hunt occasionally and rest after satisfying their needs. Women, on the other hand, are busy from morning to night, but this is not surprising. They just eat and pound rice all day long.

They must be busy with three meals a day. Perhaps because the gifts from nature are too rich, they are not very enthusiastic about planting. They even say that the food grown at home is not as delicious as the wild food.

She walked around the tribe and found that there was no school at all. The children, big and small, were all having fun in the wild. They didn’t have a school, and they didn’t go to school. When it came to learning things, it didn’t mean they didn’t learn, they just learned from the tribe.

The elders learn the rules of survival in the jungle. If you learn well, you will be able to stand out in the tribe.

Let’s talk about whether there are traces of modern civilization in this area. Let’s not say, there are indeed. For example, the tribe has an old low-power generator that was traded. It will only generate electricity when distinguished guests come to the tribe, and then it will be used at the patriarch’s house.

The only incandescent light bulb hung in the shed started to light up. This reminded Lin Yutong of the kind of insect-killing lamps hung in rural areas in summer. As long as the light was on, nearby flying insects and moths would flock to the light.

Now Lin Yutong was sitting under the shed. He looked up and saw large flying insects with wings forming a dark circle around the light bulb. The sound of flying insects vibrating their wings and colliding with each other was a buzzing sound.

On the head, there were also large flying insects whose wings were burnt by the light bulb and fell down. But when the light came on, it was a grand event for the entire tribe. The old and young in the tribe painted unique totems on their faces.

, still dancing and singing around the shed. To be honest, that kind of makeup can easily give people nightmares at night, but Lin Yutong still kept greeting these people. You have to respect other people's traditions, right?

The second thing that can be regarded as belonging to modern civilization should be the radio that the team leader specially invited Fourth Master to listen to. I don’t know where the old radio came from, and I can only receive one or two stations and still carry it with me.

All kinds of noise. But not everyone is qualified to listen to such things. Only those with seniority in the tribe can come and listen together when the clan leader is listening. It is extremely high for someone to invite Fourth Master.

Courtesy.

And the only thing that is popularized by this tribe is nothing else but clothes. At least they will no longer be naked and only wear fur skirts. That kind of fur skirt is regarded as a dress and can only be worn on major occasions. They usually wear it

... especially those worn by men, they are the same as the ten-yuan T-shirts and shorts bought on the street, but mostly in bright colors. Then there are shoes, with more people wearing them for five yuan.

Those plastic slippers that cost 1 yuan a pair instead of walking around barefoot.

After coming out of the tribe, Lin Yutong himself didn't know whether modern civilization was a disaster or a blessing to them and this land.

"Have you ever seen people enjoying themselves?" Fourth Master got on the plane and said, "If you are not a fish, how can you know the happiness of fish? It's quite good."

"I just don't know if I can maintain this state of mind after seeing the prosperity outside." Lin Yutong felt a little sad, "Actually, the fewer explorers like us, the better." In terms of the various germs they carry, these people only

I can't stand it if I'm afraid.

————————————————————————

The longing for the virgin forest has been exhausted by the difficult survival of the past few days. Now that something like this has happened again, the emotions of the participants are already close to collapse. On my side, the five people have persisted, but

But they were all very hungry. A person could survive being hungry for three days. It just tasted a little unpleasant. According to Lin Bo’s understanding of other countries, his own country was almost eliminated. That’s because

Britain lost one player and was directly eliminated. This gave their side a chance to make up for the loss.

Lin Bo didn't do any ideological work. In fact, he was a little scared this time. Whether he should change people next time would have to be decided after returning. He asked someone to prepare hot porridge for five people. He had been hungry for a long time and didn't dare to eat.

If I feed them too much, I'm afraid they'll burst. It's just simple white rice porridge, and I don't mind it being hot. I just swallow it whole. I asked five people to wait in the tent for a day, and the trip to Africa is basically over.

it's over.

Lin Yutong collected the venom of several kinds of venomous snakes. The Fourth Master looked very disgusted and said, "Why are you messing with those things?"

"Fighting poison with poison is definitely not a joke." Lin Yutong put a label on the venom and put it away. Once used, it is a good medicine for treating diseases.

The fourth master is only half-experienced in Chinese medicine and can only understand prescriptions. What she said is so profound that he really can't understand it for the time being.

But for both parties, they both felt that they had gained something. Lin Yutong collected strange plants and seeds, and Fourth Master felt that some aspects of the indigenous tribes had given him a lot of inspiration.

With this feeling in mind, I set out on my way home again.

She didn't feel any discomfort on the plane. She needed to sleep and eat. After more than thirty hours of tossing and turning, she finally set foot in Beijing again.

I used to dislike the air here, but actually after I go out for a while and come back, no matter how sweet the air is, I still feel more comfortable and comfortable in the air where I have to wear a mask when I go out.

As soon as I came back, before I even entered the house, I received a call from Su Yuan. On the phone, the old lady lost her temper at Lin Bo, "...How can you be such a father? How dare you take your child anywhere? What if something goes wrong?"

What should we do? And you, why don’t you think about me and your dad, and ask us white-haired people to give away black-haired people? "

It seems that everyone knows what happened.

Lin Bo didn't even ask for an explanation, and Su Yuan started talking about Zhu Zhu again, "I used to think you were stable. You can control his unpredictable temper and nothing can go wrong. You are really... not

It’s just a matter of persuading, but if you continue to make noises, if something happens, wouldn’t it cost us our lives?”

Zhu Zhu didn't explain, but apologized repeatedly, "Mom... it's my fault. I was really worried about these two men going out, so I couldn't help but follow them. I've been in Africa and I'm familiar with it.

Didn’t you bring them back safely?”

"That's not possible." Su Yuan's attitude did not soften much. "Come back soon. Your elder brother has arranged for a doctor. I will do a physical examination at home to make sure everything is fine." I don't know, but I really thought I went to Longtan Tiger's Den.

Lin Bo grabbed the phone and said, "No! Mom! We were already vaccinated when we left."

That's not OK.

Lin Yutong was really afraid of the old lady's nagging skills, so she whispered two words to Lin Bo, "pregnant woman."

Butanol is pregnant and living in an old house. She really brought a bad virus back with her, and she couldn't have infected it to a pregnant woman? Pregnant women's immunity is not very high.

Lin Bo gave a thumbs up to his daughter. Look at what my daughter can do. She can tell lies as soon as she opens her mouth. She can also tell lies so well-founded. Just when he was feeling proud, he realized that it seems that it is not a good thing for children to lie.

This thought only flashed through my heart, and I was busy dealing with Ms. Su Yuan, "Don't just love me, you should also love my elder brother. After all your efforts, I finally found someone to succeed me."

, how could you do this? It’s wrong to be so obviously biased.”

Su Yuan paused for a moment. Just now she only thought about the carelessness, but she threw her daughter-in-law into the back of her head again. She felt a little apologetic, but it was also for Butanol. Although the carelessness made sense,

But the tone was still bad, "Then go to the hospital. I don't care for you, big brother. I don't want you to talk too much." What does it mean to work hard to succeed someone? Isn't this ridiculous? If the boss knows, can he be like him? It's just Pi Song,

It's time to tighten the strings. That is to say, when he gets married and becomes a father, the control on him is loosened. If it were before, he would be caught and beaten first without saying a word.

After chatting for a long time, I finally hung up the phone.

Lin Bo was not in a hurry to let the fourth master go. He had to check his body anyway. Jiang Feng's performance along the way was quite remarkable.

"Then let's go together."

So we drove to the hospital together. Of course, for Lin Yutong, this was a complete waste of time. There was no way to explain this. We could only let them draw blood and ask for urine tests.

Before the fuss here was over, Fourth Master's phone rang. He frowned and handed the phone to Lin Yutong. The word "Jiang Qiao" was displayed on it.

"He's not calling because he cares about you, right?" Lin Yutong avoided Lin Bo and whispered, and then asked carefully: "Did something happen to Jiang Tian?"

I guess 80% of it is.

When the phone was picked up, before Fourth Master could speak, Jiang Qiao's voice came over, "Where are you now? Come here quickly, something happened to dad."

Fourth Master responded and stood up, "I'll go over there..."

Zhu Zhu pushed her daughter and said, "Ask Tongtong to follow you. If you need any help, just ask. You are not an outsider."

Lin Bo hesitated for a moment and then said: "If you can't solve it, just call." After flying for more than thirty hours, it was time to go home and get jet-lagged. Take a good bath, sleep comfortably, and get up to have a meal.

Home-cooked meals are so comfortable. But I can't be idle right now. It's true that Jiang Tian is making such a fuss.

For the first time, he felt dissatisfied with Jiang Qiao. He was already several decades old. If something couldn't be solved, he had to ask Jiang Feng to solve it in a hurry? Who is the elder brother and who is the younger brother? Is Jiang Tian the father of Jiang Feng alone?

In fact, I really don’t blame Jiang Tian this time. The eldest son is getting married. As a respectable Jiang family, as a legendary figure who has struggled from the grassroots to a wealthy family, can the eldest son’s marriage be careless? It must not be done! If it really happens carelessly, how can it be done?

Don't think that the Jiang family is going to lose.

Besides, he is still satisfied with his eldest son and his wife. She comes from a cadre family, has good education and good looks, which is more than enough for his bastard son. Besides, the in-laws are still in the position, so what kind of care will they get if they don't seek truth?

But at least it can send out a signal, a signal of a marriage between politics and business. From then on, there was another Buddha behind the Jiang family.

He is very good at calculating. Even if he is as ill as he is, his mind is probably not idle all day long.

During this period, when his health improved a little, he couldn't wait to get started. As a father, it was necessary to organize the wedding for his son. But what was absolutely wrong was that Jiang Qiao and Zhou Xiao were not what he thought.
