I am a Primitive Man

Chapter 307 – Joining Ceremony

Under the campfire’s glow, two large pots of freshly brewed meat soup appeared in front of the Bone Tribe people.

Qing Hua and Qing Cao, the two original Bone Tribe women, picked up bowls filled with delicious meat soup and handed them individually to the Bone Tribe people, who looked somewhat dazed.

Previously serious Green Sparrow Tribe members became kinder, eagerly teaching them how to use chopsticks.

It turned out that everything she said was true. After joining this tribe, they could indulge in such delicious food.

As the Bone Tribe people ate, their bellies filled with delicious soup, their inner unease and anxiety dissipated with each sip.

For primitive tribes, there’s nothing a hearty meat soup can’t solve. And if it doesn’t, they’ll just have more.

Han Cheng also fed the Bone Tribe leader, bound in place. Unlike before, when he was given only a small amount of food to keep him alive, this time, he was fed until he was full.

Now that many things were settled, his meal wasn’t a priority.

After taking care of these matters, it was time to sleep.

After more than a hundred Green Sparrow Tribe people settled in, the twelve rooms lined up side by side couldn’t accommodate the remaining forty-seven Bone Tribe members.

Han Cheng arranged for two rooms to be cleared for the women carrying infants and the underage members.

The cave, which had not housed anyone for a long time, was cleared out. Thick hay was spread on the ground, covered with tanned animal skins, providing a soft surface to sleep on.

Of course, the cave wasn’t meant for the elderly members of the Green Sparrow Tribe. Although Han Cheng had intended to integrate the Bone Tribe members, he wouldn’t let the elderly members suffer.

Thirteen of the Bone Tribe’s men and a few remaining women were accommodated in the cave.

This arrangement was partly due to practical constraints and Han Cheng’s considerations.

Although primitive people tended to have simple minds and straightforward thoughts, precautions were still necessary.

Placing them in the cave for accommodation made it easier to monitor them. Even if they had any malicious intentions, the distance from the women and children of the Green Sparrow Tribe would minimize the potential harm.

There’s no such thing as gaining without losing in this world. To achieve something, you have to give up something in return.

To ensure the tribe’s growth, corresponding risks must be borne.

Han Cheng was just a time traveler, a false divine child. He couldn’t control risks but minimize them as much as possible.

The Bone Tribe people were delighted with this arrangement.

The children lay on the beds, which they had never slept on before, rolling around comfortably.

Compared to adults, their worries were always few.

The Bone Tribe women who lay on the beds with their infants were also filled with curiosity. It was their first time sleeping in such a stable and soft place.

Those in the cave, with their bellies full and their hands resting on the soft hay and animal skins, felt like they were dreaming.

Not long ago, they were worried sick about whether they would survive. Now, they were free from worrying about their lives and could sleep soundly on soft animal skins without fear of wild beasts visiting the tribe.

Sleeping in caves that are more comfortable than their original dwellings, these people are reminded of the stories told to them by Qing Cao and Qing Hua. They are unable to resist longing and eagerly anticipate tomorrow’s arrival.

Some even wonder why they weren’t the ones injured and captured during the last attack on this tribe. If that were the case, they could have enjoyed life here longer.

Lost in such reminiscence, they gradually drift into slumber.

However, Eldest Senior Brother, the shaman, and Han Cheng remain awake. They are excited about the sudden increase in the tribe’s population, but they also worry that these people from the Bone Tribe might cause trouble.

Tonight, the Green Sparrow Tribe is responsible for standing guard, with the original three now increased to six.

In the past, standing guards were only required to watch outside the courtyard. Now, equal attention must be paid to the inside as well.

Even more precautions are taken within the courtyard.

Han Cheng wakes up twice in a cold sweat at night, peering out the window and listening carefully for any outside noise. Only after confirming that there is no disturbance does his pounding heart gradually calm.

In the darkness, Han Cheng chuckles self-deprecatingly, turning over to embrace the soundly sleeping Milk Tea Girl, with one leg and one arm draped over her, resembling a person holding a large doll.

The following day, after breakfast, while the people of the Bone Tribe are still immersed in the delicious food, the Green Sparrow Tribe, under the arrangement of Han Cheng, the shaman and Eldest Senior Brother, has already begun bustling about.

This is not for constructing new houses but for preparing the ceremony to welcome the Bone Tribe into the Green Sparrow Tribe.

This ceremony is essential, as it provides a sense of formality and deepens the people’s sense of belonging.

In this era, the role that ceremonies can play is significant.

Holding the ceremony to welcome the Bone Tribe into the Green Sparrow Tribe will have a powerful effect on better integrating them.

This ceremony will be even more grand than when the Pig Tribe joined.

In the puzzled eyes of the Bone Tribe, a small jar with both ends covered with hides is brought out, followed by a sudden booming sound.

Many of the Bone Tribe members, puzzled by how the jars could contain thunder, tremble with shock and fear.

They managed to trap thunder in the jars!

In the astonished hearts of the Bone Tribe members, a totem pole that their tribe had never had before is lifted. Accompanied by the shaman, who wears a feather crown and holds a bone wand, dancing as he walks, they are carried into the cave.

Guided by the Green Sparrow Tribe, these Bone Tribe members, who appear curious and bewildered, follow the others into the cave.

The raging flames burn in the cave, illuminating the totem pole, Han Cheng in front of it, the shaman with the feather crown and bone wand, the drum that can produce thunder-like sounds, and the solemn and dignified faces of the people.

Experiencing this ceremony for the first time, the Bone Tribe members are also infected by this atmosphere.

One by one, they unconsciously stand up straight, close their mouths, and solemnly gaze at the flickering flames, witnessing everything that is happening, something they have never seen before.

“Sky God.”

“Divine Son.”

Drenched in sweat from his dance, the shaman stops and places the bone wand against his chest, respectfully calling out to the totem pole and Han Cheng, who stands beside it.

After the call, the Eldest Senior Brother and the others follow the shaman’s example, paying their respects to the totem pole and Han Cheng, chanting “Sky God” and “Divine Son” in their mouths.

The Bone Tribe members have been deliberately instructed to call out these two terms despite their unfamiliarity with them.

In the past, the ceremony would have ended at this point, but today, it is different.
