happy original life

Chapter 27 Death

In the morning, Xu Fei was discussing with Nagu about making two large wooden barrels to store water.It is quite difficult to turn a piece of wood into a wooden barrel, but with the sticky tree, a cheat that can stick to everything, there is no need to think of a way to circle the barrel.

Because the sticky tree must be harvested and used immediately, Xu Fei drew the general shape of the wooden barrel to Nagu, and then handed over the important task to the big man.

There was a lot of chili and ginger piled up at home, and they all needed to be dealt with, so the two had to split up.

After Nagu left, Xu Fei took two baskets of peppers and ginger to the stream to wash them, and then hung them on the treetops to drain the water, otherwise they would rot easily.

After the water was all drained, Xu Fei picked out some older gingers from the basket containing gingers and soaked them in salt water, and prepared to dry them in the sun for later use.

Save the first ten stir-fries for the peppers, and Xu Fei plans to make the rest into pickles.Without scissors, he cut with his own animal tooth knife.

Xu Fei always picks some big, plump red peppers, which are crispier and have a better taste when marinated.As for the ginger, he only picks the small ones that will fall off when you pull them.

Pickling vegetables is not an easy job, especially pickling such pungent ginger and pepper.Without gloves, after a while, Xu Fei's hands were hot red, numb and painful.

Xu Fei pickled a small jar of pure chili and a jar of ginger, and most of the rest were mixed together.If there is sugar and vinegar, he can also make sweet and sour ginger, I guess Bai will like it very much.

When Nagu came back with the finished wooden barrel, Xu Fei was stacking the jars.The wooden barrels I made this time didn't pay so much attention. Xu Fei was afraid that it would be difficult to make round barrels, so he directly drew a design drawing of a square barrel.

Although the square bucket doesn't hold as much water as the round bucket, the two of them don't need much water a day.

"What's wrong with your hands?" Nagu found Xu Fei's hands were red and swollen as soon as he came back. He took Xu Fei's hands and took a closer look with distress.

"It's okay, I was scorched by the chili pepper." Xu Fei was a masculine man, the pain was nothing at all.He wanted to withdraw his hand, but the big man refused.

Nagu pulled Xu Fei to the side of the barrel, grabbed his arm and pushed Xu Fei's hands into the cold water.

The cool stream water is very comfortable to the red and swollen hands, but a good basin of water is just wasted.

"Wait," Nagu saw the comfortable expression on Xu Fei's face, and ran outside again by himself.But he came back after a while, bringing a few triangular green fruits.

Xu Fei looked at the big man in bewilderment, and saw that Nagu directly crushed a few fruits, and transparent mucus immediately leaked out, and he touched Xu Fei's two hands carefully.

That thing looked disgusting, and it absorbed quickly after being applied on the hands, as if forming a transparent protective film.It was still a little hot at first, so I felt a coolness in my hands, and the pain disappeared after a while.

Nagu lowered his head and licked Xu Fei's fingers, and then said with relief: "It's not spicy anymore."

Xu Fei......

Can you talk about hygiene?Xu Fei wanted to wash his hands very much now, but he was afraid that the effect of the medicine would be affected, so the licked finger was so stiff, so he finally took it back.

Nagu had no sense of doing anything wrong, and he purposely waved two wooden barrels in front of Xu Fei, with an obvious meaning: I will take care of everything you asked me to do!Praise me!

Xu Fei looked at the two vats that were half the height of a person, and tapped on the surface, they were still firmly stuck.Two barrels of this size can fully meet the needs of daily life.

Noticing that pair of sparkling eyes were staring at him all the time, Xu Fei thought about it and praised: "Not bad."

Nagu found that purely verbal rewards can no longer satisfy him, well, he can ask for it himself.

Nagu stepped forward in a big stride, and slapped Xu Fei on the mouth.After kissing, he took a step back and waited for Xu Fei's reaction.

Xu Fei's reaction was no response, he wiped his mouth, and then said: "Drill two holes in these two places."

The wooden barrel is heavy, and he wanted to install a handle on it, so that it can be picked and carried, which is much more convenient to use.

For the first time, the big man did not act immediately after Xu Fei gave the password, but instead stared at him with scorching eyes, like a cheetah stalking its prey.

No matter how dull Xu Fei was, he still felt Nagu's fiery gaze, and he forgot to say what he said later. Suddenly, he had an urge to escape, just like the instinct when a herbivore meets a carnivore.

"Xu Fei, I want to kiss you." Nagu looked at Xu Fei with serious eyes.

"You..." Why did you say such a thing?Even though his EQ was low, Xu Fei still felt embarrassed.

Nagu remembered what the patriarch told himself yesterday: If you don’t refuse, go boldly!

Xu Fei felt that he was wrapped in a hot embrace again, and as the distance between the two gradually narrowed, he could

I felt Nagu's powerful heartbeat and heavy breathing.

I don't know if someone has instructed it, but this time the big man didn't just stick his lips to Xu Fei, he first licked Xu Fei's lips wet, and then pushed the two petals with his tongue, kissing each other.

Xu Fei, who was physically weak, was quickly kissed out of breath, struggling to push the big man away.Such a slight struggle was nothing to Nagu, but he was afraid that Xu Fei would feel uncomfortable, so he let go after kissing for a while.

Xu Fei glared at the big man next to him with an unsatisfactory expression on his face, and immediately retreated to a safe distance, only then did he realize that kissing can kill people!

"Hey," the big man looked at Xu Fei's bright red lips and waved his hand, "No more kisses, no more kisses." Continue next time.

Don't think that you will let you go easily with a smirk, "You bring two more buckets of clean water back and fill them up!" Xu Fei said with a fierce look in his eyes.

Nagu knew that he was getting angry from embarrassment, so he didn't panic at all, and left cheerfully.

When the big man came back with another two loads of water, Xu Fei's shyness almost disappeared, and he returned to his usual appearance.

"The salt in the jar is almost used up, what should I do?" Originally, Nagu lived alone and did not have much salt, but today he used a lot of salt for pickling vegetables.

There are no supermarkets or canteens here, and I don't know where to get the salt that can be seen everywhere in the past. Xu Fei is afraid that if he doesn't call in advance, the salt will run out.

Nagu lifted the lid, and sure enough, there was only a little salt left, which was enough for the two of them for about ten days, even if the other two didn't come to eat.

In fact, it is not difficult to say that it is difficult to get salt, but it is a bit hard.Their place belongs to the rainforest area, which is rich in food, and there are stretches of salt mountains in the high mountain area.

It's just that these salt mountains are controlled by people from various tribes, and if you want salt, you have to exchange it for food.It is easy to get food in Nagu, but the distance to go is long, and it is very hard to eat and sleep in the open.

"I'll change the salt tomorrow." Nagu put down the lid and said to Xu Fei who was beside him.

"How long will it take?" For salt, it really is still the era of barter.

If the big man wants to exchange salt, he will definitely not go to his own tribe. They have visited all the places around here when they are hunting, so they must go to places he has never been to.

"Half a month," half a month is nothing to Nagu, if he is in a hurry, the time can be faster.

"I'll go too." Half a month is enough to go around the earth several times. Sure enough, the world without technology depends on a pair of legs!

I don't know if there are horses in this world. After taming them, they can be used as a means of transportation, so that the walking speed will be faster.

"Don't go, it's very tiring." Not to mention the distance, there will be some ferocious beasts on the road, Nagu doesn't want Xu Fei to be troubled by following him.

Seeing the big man's appearance, Xu Fei knew what he was worried about, "It's boring for me to stay here alone, what if people from the tribe come to make trouble again?"

Throw the question to the big man, and sure enough, the stubborn big man got into trouble again.

"Don't think too much, let's go tomorrow." Xu Fei looked at Nagu, "I believe in you."

One sentence made Nagu feel at ease, and he nodded in agreement.

"I'm going to prepare the food for exchange." The two of them can bring back more salt when they go together, and Nagu will first hunt some prey on his own land and bring it there.

Now the grass is abundant and the trees are fertile, and the animals are all fat.Nagu dragged the prey that was rolling with meat at four heads and came back. The weather was hot and he was reluctant to salt it when there was not much salt, so he got some purple roots, boiled a pot of water, and peeled the skin directly smeared on the prey.

Xu Fei saw that the lavender liquid turned light brown as soon as it was applied to the prey, and the prey suddenly seemed to have been marinated, probably a green preservative.

To get up early the next day, Xu Fei and Nagu both went to bed early, but they were awakened by a knock on the door in the middle of the night.

He opened the door and saw that it was the patriarch again.His face was pale, and he said to Nagu with a solemn expression: "The high priest has gone, the tribe will be chaotic in the next few days, you have to be careful."

Nagu trembled when he heard the news.

"How come?" Nagu's voice was hoarse, whether he just woke up or was hit.

"His health is not very good in winter, and he is still holding on. He counted the days in early summer, and walked peacefully." Hurley still has a lot of things to deal with, so he can only make a long story short, "Don't go back, I will gone."

After Hurley finished speaking, he jumped into the night. He is the patriarch, even if he is sad, he must persevere.

Heli had already left, but Nagu seemed to be ignorant, and still stood blankly at the entrance of the cave.

Seeing his pity, Xu Fei pulled him to the side of the bed and sat down, and poured him some water.Birth, old age, sickness and death cannot be prevented by humans.

"You go to bed first." Nagu's voice was hoarse, and he still couldn't bear to make Xu Fei busy.

Xu Fei didn't speak, and gently hugged him in his arms.At this time, any language is empty and powerless, all he can do is accompany.

Nagu hugged him back tightly without saying a word.

The two of them just sat there for half a night, and the big man finally recovered when the sky was about to dawn.

"I'm going to give Zhuo Zhuoma a ride." Nagu's eyes were bloodshot, which made Xu Fei very worried.

"Okay." Xu Fei agreed, and did not accompany Nagu, there are always some things that need to be done alone.

The departure of a priest is a major event for a tribe, and his body will not stay in the tribe, but will be sent to the priest for burial.

The priesthood is the place where all the priests live. When a priest of a tribe dies, a new priest will be appointed to succeed him.

The old priest has been here for almost 100 years, and now he is returning to his original place.

Nagu didn't go directly to the tribe, so as not to cause trouble for Heli.He waited on the only way to see him off, waiting for everyone to come.

When the sun was about to rise, the patriarch came with four young men in the clan, carrying the body of the old priest.

Nagu hid aside and followed all the way, only stopping when he was almost at the priest's office.

Harry knew he was there, so he didn't say anything.Everyone looked sad for the wise old man they had lost.
