Chapter 108
Hawkeye boarded his "observation deck" with everyone who wanted to see it first.

The young hunter who participated in the tribal meeting for the first time was always full of curiosity about the giant beasts, although he repeatedly emphasized that the herds of beasts were still far away from them at this time, and only those with good eyesight could catch the black shadows on the horizon and wanted to see them. The true face of the giant beast is absolutely impossible.

No matter what he says, these young men stick to their guns.

Besides the young hunter, there were four young children this time.

Children have always been very curious, and he doesn't find it strange, as long as they don't cause him trouble.

Zhang Tian and Lin Yu followed the crowd to the nearby commanding heights. Looking around, the endless prairie is half dry and half prosperous, green and yellow, with interlaced water networks winding among them, stretching and stretching away from the low undulating hills in front of them. , to the horizon.

The prairie is dotted with a few rickety and poorly grown trees, which further accentuate the vastness of the prairie.

As for the faint and seemingly invisible black shadows on the horizon, with Zhang Tian's eyesight, it is still impossible to judge whether it is a herd of beasts or a visual illusion caused by light.

The crowd couldn't help but feel disappointed, and they complained grumblingly. Hawkeye said angrily, "I've said it before! If you don't believe me, you have to climb up to have a look."

Zhang Tian and Lin Yu didn't feel disappointed. They didn't come here to see the giant beast. Of course, it's best if they can see it. If they can't see it, it doesn't hinder them from observing the terrain.

"Through this grassland, is it not far from the capital?" Zhang Tian asked.

"Let me think about it..." Lin Yu tried hard to recall the geographical knowledge that he hadn't used for a long time, "This should be the grassland area of ​​Songliao Plain. Going south, passing through this grassland will first enter the northern Hebei mountains, and then arrive at the North China Plain. Cross the North China Plain and you will reach the Yellow River."

"I think this route is good. Most of it is plain, and it will be easier to walk."

Lin Yu agreed.If you want to migrate thousands of kilometers from north to south to the edge of the Yellow River, trekking through mountains and rivers is unavoidable. She only gave a macro analysis, but the local terrain is often varied and strange. How to go and what kind of road conditions you will encounter, only wait You won't know until you hit the road.

The only certainty now is that their journey to the south will start from this grassland.

……

Tiger Tongue didn't go anywhere.

I didn't go to the river valley to familiarize myself with the environment, I didn't climb high to see the distance, and I didn't go to the cedar forest to collect insects and plants.

All eight tribes are here, and tonight will start the first competition of the tribal conference: cooking skills.

As the only species on earth that eats cooked food, the human foodie gene was born the moment he mastered fire.

Is an event a event without food?
Therefore, the culinary competition has always been the first event of the tribal assembly. Those who win the championship in this event will cook food for everyone in the sacrificial ceremony. This is undoubtedly a great honor.

Tiger head sneaked into the tent of the host, and in the tent, seven "cooks" from various tribes had been waiting for a long time.

The moment the curtain was lifted, all eyes were on him, and he was also looking at his opponents. There were no new faces this year.

Hutong's eyes swept over every face, and finally fell on his deadly enemy, Hei Niu from the Yan tribe.

Because of this guy, he's been second for many years.

Hutong was very unconvinced. Hei Niu and Hei Niu's cooking skills were actually on par. The reason why they lost each time was because more than half of the judges were from the three big tribes. With similar strengths, they naturally preferred Choose your own.

Hei Niu also looked at him with a relaxed expression and a faint smile on his lips.

Looking at this calm and steady smile made him angry. He immediately took a deep breath, looked away, and adjusted his mentality.

What is there to be angry about?Only losers get angry, and I will win!he thought confidently.

"You finally came."

Yun complained in a slightly dissatisfied tone, thinking that the people of these small tribes seemed to be used to being late, no wonder they were the last ones to come to every tribal meeting.

"The rules of the competition are the same as last time. Each person takes a thunderbird back and prepares it at sunset. There is no limit to how it is done. The judges will choose the winner of this cooking competition after tasting. During the ceremony, food is cooked for everyone. The judges are the chiefs, acting chiefs and priests of each tribe."

Eight chiefs and acting chiefs, plus three priests from the tribes of Youyan, Youhu and Cave Lion, made a total of eleven judges, and a majority vote was adopted.

After reading the rules, Yun distributed a plump Thunderbird to each of the eight chefs.

All the chefs took their ingredients and left, only the black cattle from their own tribe remained.

The performance of the men in the competition can best reflect the strength of the tribe. Only a tribe with a large number of talents and a thriving population can be among the best in all competitions, and even win the crown.

Through the competition, we can also see the leadership ability of each chief, whether he is good at training and motivating the tribe.

Thinking of this, Yun patted Hei Niu's arm and forcibly encouraged him: "Don't be nervous, with your strength, as long as you perform at a normal level, you will never lose."

"I'm not nervous..."

Hei Niu was a little helpless, and said to himself, which eye did you see that I was nervous?I'm so relaxed that I'm falling asleep!
"I can't lose, and I never have."

Yun couldn't help being taken aback when he received such an understatement but such a domineering response.

He knew that Hei Niu had never lost before, and he just hoped that he could take part in this victory.He felt somewhat regretful that he had no room for himself.

The setting sun is sinking towards the horizon little by little, and the vast rays of light dye the sky far and near with colorful colors of pink or light purple, and the vast and vast wilderness is shrouded in rich brilliance, almost burning.

The hunters who practiced hunting formations in the valley and the women who collected food in the cedar forests all returned to the camp one after another.

The aroma of food floated from the tents of various tribes, entangled and lingered over the camp, as if even the aromas were competing with each other.

Everyone sucked their noses vigorously, and quickly discerned the most intense and layered aroma.

"smell good!"

There is the smell of meat, the salty smell of salt, and an aroma that they have never smelled before. It is not the smell that any kind of meat should have, but it is perfectly integrated with the smell of meat and salty, stimulating everyone's sense of smell Nerves, the mouth can't stop saliva.

They couldn't help but spread their legs, looking for the source of this fragrance, and finally stopped in front of a camp.

The camp of the Great River Tribe.

"Leave a way! Make a way!"

Wolfpaw raised the curtain and walked out of the tent like a rooster, followed by the four children, each holding a piece of pottery.

Everyone scrambled to sniff the fragrance overflowing from the lid, wondering: isn't there only one bird?How do you serve four dishes?
