I am a Primitive Man
Chapter 228 – From Chang’e Flying to the Moon to Archery
Caught up in the joy of fooling primitive people, Han Cheng was suddenly startled by an angry voice.
Not only he but even the nearby Shi Tou and the somewhat lazy dog, Fu Jiang, had the same reaction.
After the startle, Han Cheng had already recognized the voice’s owner.
Turning his head, sure enough, not far away stood the Eldest Senior Brother, the tribe’s leader.
The Eldest Senior Brother had come out to use the bathroom earlier, and seeing the Divine Child and Shi Tou here looking at the moon, freezing and shivering, he wanted to come over to tell them and Shi Tou to go back to sleep to avoid being frozen.
As a result, after walking in, he heard the Divine Child telling a story to Shi Tou.
The Eldest Senior Brother slowed down his pace and listened attentively.
At first, he thought that the Divine Child was telling the story of the Cowherd and the Weaver Girl, but after listening for a while, he realized this was a completely new story.
And it was a story that was no less moving and imaginative than the Cowherd and the Weaver Girl.
The Eldest Senior Brother couldn’t help but be completely absorbed in this magical story.
He completely forgot about coming to call the Divine Child and Shi Tou to go back to the house, just standing here quietly listening, forgetting even the ubiquitous cold.
As the story unfolded, his chest began to rise and fall continuously, and the amplitude of the rise and fall became larger and larger.
When the story ended, he couldn’t bear it anymore and finally shouted out angrily, his voice filled with anger.
Seeing the Divine Child startled by him just now, he finally came to his senses from the infuriating story.
The fierce and majestic appearance from just now disappeared in an instant, replaced by a kind of embarrassment.
Han Cheng carefully recalled the shout from the Eldest Senior Brother just now, feeling quite strange, and called the Eldest Senior Brother over to ask why he said Chang’e deserved to die.
Because he had scared the Divine Child just now, the Eldest Senior Brother didn’t dare to speak too loudly now, but his words were inevitably filled with anger as he spoke.
“Chang’e stole the elixir and ate it. She deserves to die!”
This was the answer given by the Eldest Senior Brother.
Han Cheng found this different view from the Eldest Senior Brother quite strange. He had only heard praises for Chang’e in the past, but here he heard a different voice.
Following the Eldest Senior Brother’s thoughts, Chang’e’s behavior was improper.
” Divine Child, was the jade rabbit pounding medicine to treat Chang’e’s injury? Did Hou Yi shoot Chang’e with an arrow?…”
Shi Tou, who had previously asked what “pounding medicine” meant, spoke up.
Han Cheng hadn’t thought about it this way before, but now that Shi Tou mentioned it, it was pretty reasonable to use the jade rabbit-pounding medicine to explain. After all, the story of Hou Yi shooting the sun had been interspersed before.
Discovering that the immortality elixir shared by the two was consumed by Chang’e alone, it was also reasonable for Hou Yi to shoot Chang’e with an arrow.
But… how did such a good story turn sour?
Han Cheng clicked his tongue, looking helpless.
Someone came out of the room, asking what had happened.
These people had been alerted by the Eldest Senior Brother’s shout just now.
Everyone immediately became excited after hearing that the Divine Child had just told another story.
The Divine Child’s stories were their favorite.
They were still talking about the story of the Cowherd and the Weaver Girl that had been told before, and now, hearing that the Divine Child was telling another story, how could they not be happy?
Those who hadn’t heard the story felt an itch in their hearts, a feeling more uncomfortable than having a bowl of steaming hot delicious meat soup right in front of them but unable to eat it.
Han Cheng looked at the group of people with eager eyes staring at him, sniffed, and then called everyone back to the house to listen to the story. After all, it was too cold in the courtyard.
The crowd cheered, seeming happier than catching a big game animal.
The three guards understood from the crowd cheers what the Divine Child and others would do, feeling jealous to the extreme, wishing they could run to the house now to enjoy the story.
But they still had to stand guard, enduring the torment as if their hearts were being scratched.
“Divine Child, what is a bow and arrow?!”
The third Senior brother looked at Han Cheng expectantly.
The others also remained silent, staring at their Divine Child, wanting his answer.
The sun hung so high in the sky that people could only look up, but Hou Yi could use a bow and arrow to shoot it down, which made them unimaginable!
After not daring to imagine, they also had the idea that if the tribe had such a weapon, how powerful it would be.
This is a weapon that can even shoot down the sun!
With such a weapon, they would not fear any danger, and their tribe would become the most powerful tribe in the area!
When the time comes, leaving some people to guard the tribe with bows and arrows, the rest can go out to find cattle, an animal they had never seen before but had longed for.
Looking at the bright eyes of the people in the tribe, Han Cheng wondered if he had brought out the bow and arrow too late.
He had indeed considered the bow and arrow, but he had not brought it out for a reason.
Firstly, the Green Sparrow Tribe could obtain enough food without going out to hunt, and secondly, the Green Sparrow Tribe had been busy with things like walls and houses, rarely going out to hunt, so there was rarely a need for bows and arrows. Moreover, making bows and arrows with a long enough range was difficult, so they had never been made.
Seeing the unusually bright eyes of the tribe looking at him, even the Shaman and the Eldest Senior Brother were no exception; Han Cheng thought for a moment and then began to explain to everyone what a bow and arrow was.
“Can… can we make it…”
When Third Senior Brother asked this question, his throat was a little dry, and his heart was pounding.
The others also held their breath, all looking at their Divine Child.
After seeing Han Cheng nod, the people crowded in the three rooms cheered again.
Some impatient ones were already thinking about asking the Divine Child to make the bow and arrow.
Limping and sitting on the edge of the heated bed, Lame looked at Han Cheng with shining eyes because he realized he would follow the Divine Child to make that unimaginably powerful weapon.
Such a powerful weapon, coming from his own hands; just thinking about it made Lame tremble with excitement.
It was already evening, and it was dark all around, so of course, they couldn’t make bows and arrows at this time; they could only wait until tomorrow.
Third Senior Brother and the others immediately assured the Divine Child that he didn’t need to worry about it. They could light a massive fire to illuminate the surroundings, and the Divine Child could safely make the bows and arrows.
After thinking about it, Han Cheng still shook his head. He rejected the group of people deeply stimulated by the mighty power of bows and arrows in the story, saying that they should go to sleep and discuss making bows and arrows tomorrow.
