Original War

Chapter 181

“What to change?” Gua was stunned for a while.

Yesterday, I saw that my friend owned a few very delicate and realistic bone sculptures. The other party also held them to show off in their small group. Guai also wanted a wood sculpture. The wood sculptures made by other people in the tribe are similar to these. In comparison, it is not at the same level.

Hearing that it was exchanged with people from the traveling team, Gua went there to look for them, but no one was found, so he planned to find the tree first, and then let someone carve a wood sculpture.

Yes, Guarin doesn’t like bone carvings, stone carvings are second, and Guarin wants wood carvings more than stone sculptures. The stone sculpture is too easy to break, and his grandfather also carved something for him back then. Naturally, the carvings are made of very ordinary stones. If you accidentally touch them, they will break them. In comparison, a few wood carvings are still good now, even though many people think that wood carvings are more fragile than stone carvings. He still prefers woodcarving.

Today, Guawei took advantage of his father’s patrol, Shaolai followed with him, and asked his father to chop a section of the stump for him and drag him back. He didn’t expect to encounter Shao Xuan here.

When Gua went to the long-distance team to look for someone, he carefully asked about Shao Xuan’s appearance. He was just skeptical, and now it was confirmed. Naturally, he was very happy. However, Shao Xuan’s question stopped him from being asked.

Yes, people in the remote practitioner team all need to exchange things. These people are not members of his family and will not do things for free.

What can I change?

sheep? Cattle? If you drag it out for a change, will you be beaten by A-niang when you go back? After the beating, change to Dad…

I haven’t thought about this before. Now that I think about it carefully, Gua is a bit hesitant, but he really wants a wood carving like that, which is better than his grandfather’s carving. It’s a pity, whether it’s his father or mother, it’s definitely not because They don’t think it is worth it or cost-effective to exchange for a wood carving or stone carving. This is also the reason why Gua is very envious of his little friend.

Gua could not think of a way, and was anxious, for fear that Shao Xuan refused, grabbed his hair, opened his mouth several times, and didn’t know what to say.

“Let’s do it,” Shao Xuan said when the other party was entangled: “You promise me one thing, and I will sculpt it for you as far as I can.”

“What’s the matter?” Gua asked.

“Usually help Lao Nai them more. For example, don’t let Xiao Anai be bullied by others. If Lao Nai’s family is in trouble, you can help as much as you can. How?” Anai is the name of Lao Nai’s grandson. Guar and others would not accept Anai, and Anai was not less bullied. Shao Xuan wanted to fight back for him, but he was not easy to intervene in the war between children. Besides, Laohao’s family still needs to live in this life, and Feng tribe is not someone who will absolutely compromise if you are strong.

“this……”

“You don’t even have this ability?”

“Of course it’s okay!” Melon said with his neck.

From the chat between Shao Xuancong and Lao Xi, he also knew that Gua’s father had some ability in the tribe, and he also brought it with him. Gua’s influence in his small group, if it weren’t for this kid’s troubles, if it was this kid. If they can help, the Laohao family can naturally live a better life here until the Yanjiao tribe returns.

Gua didn’t think what Shao Xuan said was too difficult, but he was not too stupid and knew how to bargain, “I promised, but you have to sculpt it well, and you can’t be worse than the few bone sculptures that you gave to others before! ”

“Can.”

“I’ll be watching, if I don’t do well, I won’t agree!”

“Row.”

Shao Xuan polished a few small stone knives with good stone quality during his trip. The animal bones are not too hard. Using these small stone knives is enough to carve wood. Naturally, they can be used.

Since Gua said it was carved here, Shao Xuan didn’t move a place either. The wood brought by the melon is not bad, the texture is fine and tough, and it is not easy to deform, and the carving effect should be better.

“What do you want to carve?” Shao Xuan asked.

“I think… well, think…” Guana thought about it carefully, and said: “Wolf, I want a wolf!”

Compared with the beasts that have never been seen and will not appear on the grassland, Guarin hopes that there will be a wolf woodcarving. Wolves are very common in the grasslands. Although the Feng tribesmen also hunt wolves, they still have a little awe of wolves. If the wolves did not attack the tribe or take away their livestock, they would not Will shoot against the wolves.

“You want to be prestigious, Wolf!” said Gu Xiang with longing.

Shao Xuan didn’t quite understand the child’s obsession with the wolf, but the old man next to him said the reason.

There is a story circulating in some tribes on the grassland. Of course, I don’t know which ancestor of which tribe made up the story. He said that a certain tribe was often attacked by wolves. The witch of that tribe predicted that the wolves would attack a warrior’s house, so he carved a wolf from a stone and placed it at the door of that warrior’s house. In the evening, when the wolves came over, they saw the stone sculpture. They thought they had seen the wolf king, so they scared away.

This kind of story is believed by the little children, and when they grow up, they don’t believe it anymore, but the current people still believe in it. However, he also knows that not everyone has the power of the witch in the story. What’s more, the wooden stakes he brought back are not big, so naturally they can’t be compared with the wood carvings in the story. He just wanted to be satisfied with a woodcarving like that.

“Wolves…” Shao Xuan’s first thought was that Caesar who was left behind in the tribe. After being engraved, Caesar was also qualified to be a wolf. Even if he succeeded in revenge, he could still talk to the fierce in the forest. The beasts fought, not knowing how far they have grown.

Reminiscing about the appearance of Caesar and the manner of hunting in the forest, Shao Xuan began to use his sword.

Gua also wanted to learn some carving skills. Unexpectedly, the person in front of him moved the knife faster and faster. At first he could still see the movement of each knife. Pieces of wood were cut off. But soon, he He couldn’t keep up with Shao Xuan’s speed. The only thing he could see was the sawdust splashing like a torrential rain, forcing him to step back several steps.

Gua wanted to ask some questions, but found that the sculptor in front of him seemed to be immersed in a certain state, making it impossible for people to intervene.

Lao Jia grabbed some sawdust splashed on the ground with his hands, and fixed his eyes on Shao Xuan. He couldn’t see clearly the movements on Shao Xuan’s arm, but he could see the totem patterns on Shao Xuan’s face clearly, that is, the Yanjiao tribe’s totem patterns, much clearer than his father’s.

Carving a wooden sculpture does not necessarily require the power of a totem, but Shao Xuan will use it naturally when he is really serious about carving. The stone knives in my hand are not that easy to use. In many cases, in order to be able to carve the desired effect more accurately, the strength and speed need to be controlled, and no error is allowed. The fine and precise control Shao Xuan learned while learning to polish stone tools also made carving a lot easier.

The four people around couldn’t help stopping what they were doing and staring at Shao Xuan.

As the sawdust fell quickly, the wood carving in Shao Xuan’s hand gradually took shape.

Melon’s breathing gradually increased. He had never seen anyone carve like this. At the same time, he still had the feeling that this wood carving was what he wanted, even better than he thought.

When Shao Xuan stopped the knife in his hand, he held the formed wooden sculpture in his other hand but was covered with sawdust and blew.

The sawdust covering the wood carving flew up, leaving the wood carving, under the dazzling sunlight, it was like a handful of gold dust. The wood carving also reveals its true meaning.

It was a very strong wolf, even allowing the viewer to feel the strong muscles under the fur. It stood there with its head high, no teeth, no howls, and no claws raised. It just stood there, tilted its head slightly, as if looking at something trivial, carrying A kind of indescribable power, it seems that everything in front of you can’t get past it, and can only retreat.

The woodcarving is not big, it looks the size of a puppy, but it feels completely different.

“Is this satisfactory?” Shao Xuan asked the woodcarving in his hand to Xiang Gua.

“Full…satisfied!” Gu Jin excitedly reached out and caught it, cautiously.

“So, do you remember what you promised before?” Shao Xuan asked again.

“What? Oh, remember, of course! Take care of them!” Seeing the wooden sculpture in his hand, Gua felt that this transaction was really satisfying.

“Without a word, it’s hard to chase a horse.”

“Huh?” Gua was a little dazed at Shao Xuan’s words.

“That is to say, if you said this, it is to put on the four strongest horses of your tribe… and it is difficult to catch up. If you can’t take it back, you must keep your promise.” Shao Xuan explained briefly.

“certainly!”

Gua now wanted to quickly get the woodcarving back, and didn’t keep it anymore, got up and left.

After Gua Wei left, Shao Xuan turned his head and met Lao Jia’s grandson Xiao Anai’s gaze.

“Do you want a wood carving too?” Shao Xuan asked.

“Yeah!” Anai nodded heavily.

“What do you want?”

“Wolves too!”

“No need,” Shao Xuan rubbed the half-length hair of Anai’s head and said: “At that time, you will see the true body, alive, more powerful than that. Not only the wolf, but also the cave lion, but also There are many, many more fear cranes with big heads…”

Shao Xuan talked about the tribe with Laohao’s family, and carved a totem with a stone—double horns with flames.

Lao Hao is getting older and has experienced too many things, countless setbacks and blows, ups and downs, and now, although not light and windy, compared to Yan Shuo, he is much calmer. It’s just that the hand that can hold the stone pick steadily at ordinary times, when holding the small double-horned totem stone sculpture, has been trembling, and has not slowed down for a long time.

After a long while, Lao Jia turned to one direction, carefully placed the stone sculpture in front of him, and then bowed down in the manner of the Yanjiao tribe. Anai and Lao Gao’s wife also bowed down.

Lao Hao got up when he finished his kneeling.

“Once the tribe was in that direction, but then left. I haven’t been there. I only know that my hometown is there. My father told me, and my father learned from my grandfather. Passed down from generation to generation. They said that although the tribe has left the old place, the roots are still there. If the tribe is still there, one day, the tribe will return to the old place again and start the fire.

Shao Xuan, you don’t have to look for the lost people one by one. There are many visitors to the Yanjiao tribe, and there may be many people who don’t know where they belong, and many people don’t know the past and can’t see the way to the future. However, when the fire ignites in the old place again, all the things are lost. The travellers of the Yanjiao tribes everywhere will be able to go home too! ”
