Just like a person who is afraid of being poor will continue to be excited after getting rich overnight, these days, the children in the cave have been in an extremely excited state.

The result of excitement is a fight.

Outside of fishing time, fights in the holes happen frequently.

In the past, I beat them to grab food, but now I beat them to protect them. Sometimes I pull the spoils back. If anyone gets the wrong fish, I will beat them without saying a word!

Now it is not a one-on-one single fight. After Shao Xuan instilled in them the idea of ​​grouping is another form of hunting team, these children are now gathered together in groups of five. Of course, the fight is a battle between groups, which is more intense than before.

Shao Xuan sat next to him and lowered his head and sighed, "It's such a sin!"

After seeing a fight between two groups caused by a child's mistaken fish, Shao Xuan looked at the mess in the cave and thought for a while, and his eyes were on a smooth stone wall near the entrance of the cave.

A long time ago, when people in the tribe lived here, they polished the stone cave walls and even engraved words on them. Later, when children lived in them, they rarely added words on the stone walls. Even if children in the cave were bored or wanted to paint with a sudden idea, they would only carve them near the ground. If they were a little taller, there were only traces left countless years ago.

The time is different, and the carving methods and depths are different. Some have used pigments made of plant pigments, while others are carved directly with stone knives. Many traces have become blurred, discolored, and the original appearance cannot be seen clearly. It is a waste to put them there.

Shao Xuan brought the little boys who were overly excited and asked them to pick up stones and start polishing the hole walls.

There were some larger stones deep inside the cave, and they worked together to move them out. The polishing of the high part of the cave wall required step on these stones, otherwise they would not be tall enough.

There was something to do, and these children were indeed much more at ease. In addition, this was Shao Xuan's order, no one opposed it. Even if they were reluctant, they would take the stones and grind them a few times.

Because the wall of the cave had been polished for a long time, now it was just grinding away the most surface traces. After feeling that it was almost the same, Shao Xuan took the branches that were charred due to incomplete combustion and stepped on the stones below. He wrote five groups from one to five on the cave wall. Who does the first group represent and which five people in the second group are, and they all explained them one by one. To be safe, Shao Xuan also wrote the names of the group members under the digital code of each group.

Every once in a while, the tribe would send people to the cave to teach these children the most basic things, such as counting, such as some commonly used words, etc. Shao Xuan understood the words here because of this, but the children in the cave were unwilling to listen to them before and learned very little. Every time someone came, Shao Xuan listened carefully for a while.

The children in the cave had a stone plaque around their necks, and their names were on the stone plaque. Even if they couldn't write, they couldn't recognize many words, but they could still recognize their own names.

The names were written, the groups were divided, and the fish brought back had to be written. Originally, Shao Xuan only wanted to write a number to record how many fish caught in each group, but the children were not satisfied. Looking at the fish hanging above the hole, Shao Xuan took the charcoal branches and drew simple drawings on the cave wall - abstract fish, one fish can be made with one stroke, and it can be seen that it is a fish.

Now the little boys were finally satisfied, and asked the person who was the best in his group to verify whether the number of fish he was hanging on the cave wall was the same as the number of fish he was hanging on.

Each fish only costs one effort, and there are only a few dozen pieces here, which doesn’t take much effort. Anyway, it’s still idle. In addition, the hole is big and the wall is wide enough, so it doesn’t matter if you draw a thousand fish.

Where Shao Xuan painted fish, there was a high ventilation opening on the opposite cave wall. During the day, sunlight shone in on this cave wall, so that the calligraphy and paintings written on the cave wall can be seen very clearly.

So, outside of fishing time every day, the five children sat together in the hole weaving straw ropes. After we weaving for a while, they looked up at the hole wall, counted the fish they had formed, and then counted the fish hanging on their "territory" above. It is precisely because of this that the children's counting ability has rapidly increased.

People who used to knock on stone sticks and were unhappy to count now don’t need to urge them. They can count dozens of times a day, but this is still a small number of people.

"A Xuan, is it twelve after ten?"

“It’s Eleven!”

"Oh... eleven, twelve, thirteen, fourteen... No, A Xuan, why do our team have only fourteen fish? Fifteen were drawn on the wall! One missing! Who stole our fish?!" As the child said that, he and the other four in the same group were picking up wooden sticks and stones, with gloomy eyes and evil spirits looking at the other children in the cave.

Shao Xuan took a deep breath and pointed to the wall with the branch: "Didn't you see a thick stroke on the fish drawn in the front? It means you have eaten it, you ate it last night! Do you want to spit out the things in your stomach to confirm? I - can - help - help!"

"...It seems like that." After tilting his head, the evil aura on the child suddenly subsided. He threw the stick and sat down with the other four people to continue weaving the straw ropes, as if what had happened just now had not happened.

"A Xuan, I heard from Uncle Ge that it was another good weather. Will we go to the river tomorrow?" a child asked expectantly.

The other children also raised their ears and stared at Shao Xuan with bright eyes, as if as soon as Shao Xuan said the word "no" would break the glass heart.

"Well, tomorrow will be as usual." Shao Xuan walked out of the cave and looked at the sky, and said.

Now more than 20 children in the cave are acting together. They are greedy and want to spend all day fishing on the river bank. But they also know that it is best to act with others, and they have to do so. The reason is that they can't get the stone worm.

Shao Xuan has tried many kinds of insects that can be found in the tribe, and only stone insects have the best fishing effect. For those who do not obey commands and act without authorization, Shao Xuan will not give them stone insects.

If you are disobedient, you still want stone worms? Okay, you can dig yourself. Without Caesar, you may not be able to dig one of them for a long time. Those stone worms act much faster underground than earthworms. If you can't catch them at the first time, you will return empty-handed. Didn't this time not the stone worms that Caesar helped dig for?

The second reason they had to act uniformly: they couldn't get the small black piece that could float on the water. To get that, they had to catch a bug that lived in the black swamp. Unfortunately, except for Caesar, they could not get close to the black swamp.

Because of this, Caesar's status in the cave has also improved a lot. At least now, the children's eyes when they look at Caesar are not the kind of food that is red fruit. Some of them have a little more flexible mind and have learned to please. They have seen Caesar gnawing on animal bones before, so they gave the fish bones to Caesar. Unfortunately, Caesar was not interested in fish bones at all.

In any case, the relationship between these little boys and Caesar has been eased a lot, so Shao Xuan doesn't have to worry about when these little boys unite to bake Caesar.

The next day, Shao Xuan was awakened by these people early and ran to the gravel field to dig out stone insects. Caesar dug one, and Shao Xuan divided it into one for the captain appointed by each team.

A stone worm can be used two to three times. After digging it, cut it into two sections from the middle. After a few minutes, the two ends that are cut can move from one to two. If you give a little more time, they will grow as long as before they are cut.

Everything was ready, Shao Xuan brought his group to the river bank again.

The soldiers who were in charge of guarding the river bank changed a batch, but they quickly became familiar with Shao Xuan. In the past two days, they watched Shao Xuan bring the children from the cave to fish, and they would give them one every day. They had a good impression of Shao Xuan, and they also improved a lot of the children from the cave.

Seeing the river, these little boys couldn't help but rush to throw the bait and fish quickly, but was suddenly stopped by Shao Xuan.

"Retreat! Back back! Don't touch the water! Don't throw bait first!" Shao Xuan held the child who rushed in front and shook it back, frowned and looked at the river.
