Chapter 37
The clansmen bared their teeth at each other. After brushing their teeth, they felt much more refreshed. There was no longer a smell of rotten eggs in their mouths. Only by freshening their breath could they get closer to each other.

Turning around, I saw Lin Yu was turning his back to the crowd, throwing something into the water bag furtively.

This scene was too suspicious. The clansmen, especially the men, didn't trust her in the first place. Hutou used his muscles to know that she must be playing tricks, and angrily shouted: "Hey! What are you doing?!"

Lin Yu turned his head and saw the women with suspicious faces and the men with fierce eyes, and immediately realized that he had done something stupid.

Water is an indispensable resource in the tribe, how can she be allowed to get involved by an outsider?
She should first explain the situation to the clansmen and then act instead of making decisions for them with good intentions.

I'm getting carried away...

She also reacted very quickly, thinking that she couldn't understand the language, and it would be difficult to explain clearly for a while, so she immediately picked up the water bag and gurgled to prove that she was not poisoning.

However, this alone was not enough to quell the anger, and her self-assertive behavior made men feel angry and disturbed.

Even if they are guests, they should not take the owner's things without the owner's permission, let alone the water they can survive. If she poisons the water one day, won't the whole tribe be killed by her? Went out?

"What the hell are you doing?"

"Did Mom agree to you doing this?"

"Why do you move our water?"

Everyone was asking questions in one go, but Lin Yu could feel their anger through the expressions, tone of voice and body movements of the men.

Seeing that the trust that she worked so hard to build yesterday was about to crumble, and she might be expelled from the tribe, she was so anxious that she was sweating, but she couldn't speak, so she could only dance and gesture vigorously.

However, those with low voices are not as noisy as those with loud voices. It has been the same since ancient times. Her hands and feet were tingling, but the people in the clan kept talking and getting angrier.

At this time, I suddenly heard a slightly childish voice saying loudly: "I asked her to do this!"

There was a moment of silence in the cave, everyone followed the sound and saw that it was Zhang Tian, ​​they couldn't help looking at each other.

Grandma, who seldom expressed her opinion, could not sit idly by in such a situation, looked at Zhang Tian, ​​and asked seriously: "Is there anything that the clansmen can't do, but she can only do it? Moreover, Why didn't you tell everyone that you made such a decision?"

This is a very severe accusation. Non-concealment and consensus are the basis for people of the tribe to trust each other and live together. Even grandma will discuss with everyone before doing things.

Although Zhang Tian has been guided by the sky, it doesn't mean that he can ignore the tacit understanding and act recklessly.

However, since he dared to stand up and endorse Lin Yu, he had already thought about how to argue.

He walked towards Lin Yu.

Lin Yu was confused and didn't understand Grandma's question at all, but seeing Grandma's serious expression and the clansmen remained silent, it was obvious that the situation was not good.

Thinking that all of this was caused by herself, she was both annoyed and guilty, and asked Zhang Tian with her eyes. Seeing Zhang Tian's calm and calm eyes, she immediately felt relieved.

Zhang Tian reached into the water bag to pick up the white stone, and said to the people, "Do you still remember the story of Shennong tasting the herbs? Why didn't Shennong tell the people which flowers and plants can be eaten and which flowers and plants cannot be eaten before tasting the herbs?"

Xiao was on Zhang Tian's side, and immediately said: "Because Shennong doesn't know, and he will only know after trying!"

"That's right!"

Zhang Tian spread out his hand, revealing the white stone in his hand.

The eyes of the clansmen were immediately attracted by this pure white round stone.

They have never seen such a stone, as white as snow, as round as the sun, with an indescribably incomparable beauty, much more beautiful than the ornaments they polished out of animal bones.

Zhang Tian said: "The day I caught her back, I found this stone from her body. I have been trying to figure out its use for the past two days. I didn't tell everyone because I don't know what it is for. I have to try it. Only then can I tell everyone.”

Everyone was stunned, these words sounded very reasonable, coupled with the evidence of their ancestors' deeds, the clansmen were immediately relieved, but they didn't know that Zhang Tian had secretly changed the concept.

Hutou asked: "Then what did you ask her to do with this stone? Why did you throw it into the water?"

Zhang Tian said in a very serious tone: "Because just now, I heard the voice of the sky. The ancestors told me that this is a treasure handed down by them, and only Lin Yu can use it. So I asked her to use it for me." .”

He paused, and then said: "Now I know, this stone can make the water we drink clear and pure!"

Lan Hua took a look at the water bag, then handed it to the tribe, and said happily: "Look! The river water we brought back has become clean! It has become the same as the water after the snow melts!"

Zhang Tian handed the white stone to Lin Yu.

Lin Yu was a little confused, she didn't know what happened, but obviously, after Zhang Tian's talk, the misunderstanding had been cleared up, and she saw the clansmen holding her purified water to taste, showing intoxicated expressions.

Lanhua gestured and asked, "Can you show us how you did it?"

"Of course!"

Lin Yu readily agreed.

The men leaned over with their heads scratched and sincerely apologized to her, expressing that they shouldn't have yelled at her so loudly as a guest.

Lin Yu smiled and waved his hands, thinking that these primitive people are very straightforward.

After thinking about it, I felt that this was inevitable.

We get along day and night, without any private space, no matter how much we feel like brothers and sisters, disputes are inevitable, and only those who are straightforward and do not hold grudges can live together for a long time.

The women boiled flowers and plants with water purified by Lin Yu, and then seasoned them with spices.

It was rare to eat such clean and delicious food, even Zhang Tian couldn't help eating two more bowls.

Compared with two days ago, the quality of life of the clansmen has improved significantly, and their image has also been changed. Zhang Tian even wears a pot head that is unique in this era, and is the most beautiful boy in the cave.

There is one thing to say, after looking at it for a long time, it actually feels pretty good, and the more men look at his hairstyle, the more pleasing it is to their eyes.

After breakfast, the young and strong are ready to go.

Zhang Tian will not go to the river today.

Relatively older uncles generally prefer fishing and are better at fishing. After these few days of fishing, they have mastered the fishing skills. Even if Zhang Tian is not around, they can still complete the task well. The situation is uncertain, and there is Xiao, he is already a mature fisherman, and he has to learn to lead the team by himself.

Zhang Tian wants to go hunting in the mountains with his brothers headed by Hutou.

Hunting comes second. He mainly wants to patrol the mountains and find out the territory of his tribe. If he is lucky, he hopes to encounter animals with horns.

It doesn't matter if you can't touch it, the animal horn in the horn bow is not necessary, it can be replaced by wood.

Of course, if you want to make a high-quality horn bow, you still have to be meticulous in the selection of materials. If you are more demanding, you must keep improving the production process.

But with the current conditions, Zhang Tian doesn't expect so much, as long as it can be used, it is better than ordinary bows.

Lin Yu is also going to the mountains today. As a descendant of Shennong, she wants to teach women how to distinguish herbs.
