Chapter 33 The Length of a Finger

After the hunting team left, the tribe returned to its usual pace of life.

However, compared with last year, the riverside is extremely lively. After experiencing the initial fear of unknown creatures in the river, people's fear of creatures in the river has dissipated a lot because of the benefits brought by those big-mouthed piranhas.

It turns out that the things in the river are not that scary. Just be careful and you can harvest enough food.

The life in the cave was stable under the joint management of slap and stammer. The daily fishing action and enough food were not as thin as in previous years. At the same time, the children in the cave were becoming more and more united. They could not be united. They could only be external. The ability of a single person was too small and they didn’t have the advantage when fishing.

As for the stone insects, Shao Xuan will only take Caesar to catch the stone insects two days later. After catching enough stone insects, he will save them for the children in the cave.

The stone cannot bind the stone worms. Some people used stone jars to put many stone worms in, but the next day they found that the stone jar had broken a hole and the stone worms were gone. But I accidentally discovered that it was not as hard as the stone wood and straw ropes, but they could trap them better than the stone tools. Even if they could not be trapped for too long, it would be absolutely fine for one or two days. This solved the trouble of Caesar running there every day.

Shao Xuan still went to the training area in the morning to find stone cores, and then went to Lao Ke to learn stone skills in the afternoon.

After more than ten days in a row, Shao Xuan felt that he had much more strength than when he had just awakened, and he became more skilled in controlling the power of totem, and he also switched the two abilities in his body more freely.

It seems that learning stone skills is also of great benefit to controlling the power of totem.

Shao Xuan shuttled between the woods like a monkey, heading towards the place he had seen yesterday. His figure flashed, the branches swayed slightly, and the sound was very small, just like a breeze blew by.

Caesar ran behind him.

There is still no place left the tribe's guarding area, so Shao Xuan doesn't have to worry about any fierce beasts appearing. The reason he deliberately controls the sound is just for future hunting activities. Hunting often requires sneaking, quietly approaching prey, hiding his breath, and a little more dynamic can alarm prey or other unbeatable beasts.

Shao Xuan had seen the stealth ability of Lang Ga and Mai. Mai was even silent when he walked around, and he was still a distance away from them.

In the several mountains at the training site, Shao Xuan also saw many awakened children with him, including the Ski.

"Hey, that's A Xuan?" Sai's father looked at the figure flashing through the woods and said. For those who did not have the power of awakening totem, Shao Xuan's speed is naturally very fast and difficult to capture, but it is nothing for other totem warriors who have awakened for many years.

Sai was jumping in place with a big stone, and he had already jumped for more than a hundred times. Hearing his words, Sai turned his head and looked over, and Shao Xuan was gone in the woods.

"What are you looking at?! Keep jumping on you!" Sai's father hit Sai's butt with a stone and scolded, "You can't even compare to Ah Xuan, who is two years younger than you!"

"Where can't compare?" Sai was dissatisfied.

"Hey, you're still stubborn, I said yes! Jump quickly! You can only rest after jumping for two hundred times." Sai's father knocked him over with two sticks.

"It's already one hundred and seventy-two!" Just jump twenty-eight times. Sai thought to himself, and was a little happy. Should he go to catch Shi Feishe in the rest time or find something to eat? I don't know if there are any crispy and green fruits I ate the previous two days.

Sai swallowed his saliva, thinking with anticipation, when he heard his father glaring his eyes and saying, "You think I can't count?! There are only one hundred and twenty-seven, and there are seventy-three more!"

He was so angry that he almost threw away the big rock he was holding. But his father's style of doing things is like this. The wrong ones are right, and he has to admit it even if he doesn't admit it. Debating with him will be beaten.

Mama!

Sai couldn't glar at him, so he wrote this hatred on Shao Xuan.

Shao Xuan, who was not sure, was busy picking stones. There were many stones in the training ground, but few could be used to make stone tools. Even if he relied on his special ability to distinguish the grade of stone, he could not quickly find the most suitable one, because even good stones may not be suitable for slicing. Therefore, Shao Xuan spent several hours every morning to select stones, and then brought the stone core that was good and suitable for slicing.

With Lao Ke these days, Shao Xuan has made a lot of progress in identifying stones. Unlike before, he looked at all the same stones.

When Shao Xuan was looking for the stone core, Caesar was bored and went to block the stone flying squirrels that were digging holes on the mountain and jumping around. Every time Shao Xuan picked up the stone core, he found that there were several dead stone flying squirrels next to Caesar.

Sometimes Shao Xuan felt very guilty when he looked at Caesar. He was so good that he had developed this way for himself.

In the afternoon, Shao Xuan took the selected stone core to Lao Ke.

Lao Ke taught Shao Xuan how to judge the best angle of the stone and the countertop, and which kind of stone is suitable for what to do. Then, Lao Ke sat next to him and watched Shao Xuan knock on the stone leaves.

Taking off his animal skin coat, Shao Xuan put his upper body naked, picked up the stone hammer and started knocking.

After knocking for the first few days, the animal skin coat was soaked with sweat. A little twist could be twisted out. Later, Shao Xuan threw the animal skin coat directly next to it, saving the smell of sweat.

bite!

bite!

bite!

...

The knocks that sounded every afternoon began.

One hammer, two hammers……50, fifty, fifty one…100 hammers…500 hammers…

As if she was tireless, Shao Xuan kept knocking on the stone core. The huge stone core became smaller and smaller as the stone leaves that were smaller than the previous few days fell.

After knocking one, Shao Xuan did not rest, and then knocked on the second one and the third one...

After knocking three, Shao Xuan fell into the water tank and was caught out.

After replenishing some moisture, Shao Xuan stood beside him and listened to Lao Ke explaining the details to pay attention to when polishing later, how to polish the stone leaves of what shapes should be polished, and how to polish the remaining stone cores.

Lao Ke said that every stone has its own story, and even the best stone master may not be able to interpret every stone. But every time Lao Ke explained to Shao Xuan, he still taught the knowledge he had discovered and mastered so far as possible.

Shao Xuan listened carefully, and many seemingly indifferent words actually hide many skills.

After a while of rest, Shao Xuan continued after listening to Lao Ke's professor, but the next step was not to make a film, but to grind it.

Whether it is the filming or the subsequent grinding process, if you want to meet Lao Ke's high standards, you must control the power of the totem more carefully and more accurately during the grinding process.

This is not an easy thing. When polishing, Shao Xuan was immersed in it. All his consciousness was concentrated on the grinding stone tool. The feeling was not obvious. Once polishing was completed and consciousness recovered, his head would swell and hurt, and sometimes it would feel like he was stabbed by an awl, so that his forehead would constantly seep out of sweat as big as beans.

Lao Ke said this is normal, that's how he came here back then.

Although it is hard, the effect is significant, and Shao Xuan's control of the power of totem is more accurate.

Lao Ke, who was sitting next to him, showed a look of satisfaction in his eyes. Shao Xuan's growth far exceeded his imagination. Over the years, Lao Ke has seen many people who learn to polish stone tools, but no one can do this like Shao Xuan!

Many people may not be able to achieve the level of Shao Xuan in half a year or even one or two years. Of course, there are also people who do well, such as Langga, which only took less than fifty days to do, and Langga's grandfather still showed off with his beard in front of Lao Ke.

But how long has Shao Xuan learned it? It only took ten days!

Lao Ke actually wanted to go up the mountain immediately to find the old guy who made the ground bow and "chat" it, but I'd better wait, wait a little longer...

Just as he was thinking about what "good-looking" look that old guy would know when he knew, Ke's eyes suddenly froze, and he suddenly widened his eyes, as if he had seen something incredible.

It is not unusual to have to have totem patterns exposed on Shao Xuan’s body. When learning stone skills during this period, Shao Xuan will use the power of totem, and the totem on his body will naturally appear.

What Lao Ke was shocked was not the totem pattern. What he saw in front of him was even more unbelievable than when he saw Shao Xuan use the power of totem when he saw him filming!

Everyone in the tribe knows that the newly awakened warriors will only display all totem patterns on their bodies when they wake up by the fire pit. After the sacrifice, the totem patterns will shrink. The totem patterns that originally covered the entire arm will shrink to the upper arm, slightly over the shoulders, and the totem patterns on their legs will also shrink.

Therefore, when you wake up and use the totem power, the totem patterns displayed are all the elbows and knees, which is the symbol of the primary totem warrior. When one day the totem patterns are up and down and knees, it is time to upgrade from the primary totem warrior to an intermediate warrior. This is the most direct and effective method to identify the level of the totem warrior.

When the warriors are hunting, they make breakthrough progress again and again when facing countless dangerous beasts and life threats, so that the totem pattern will extend, but the length of the extension is also limited. Many people have decades of hunting experience, and the totem pattern cannot go beyond the elbow or knee. In other words, they are still in the stage of a primary totem warrior and progress is extremely slow.

But what about Shao Xuan now?

Lao Ke's eyelids were pounding. He clearly remembered that when Shao Xuan came to learn stone skills and used the power of totem, the totem patterns displayed on his upper arm were just slightly above his shoulders, just like other people who had just awakened.

Now, the totem pattern on Shao Xuan's upper arm has extended the length of a little finger to the front of his arm!

Before this, Lao Ke did not pay attention to the totem patterns on Shao Xuan’s arm. He just thought about when Shao Xuan could reach the level of an intermediate warrior and glanced at the totem patterns on Shao Xuan’s upper arm. He did not expect that such a discovery was made. He could see the slightest error on the stone tool. How could he not see the length of the totem patterns on Shao Xuan’s arm?!

Don’t underestimate the length of this finger section. This is something that some people may not be able to do in several years!

But how long does Shao Xuan wake up?

At this speed, how far will the intermediate totem warrior be?
Chapter completed!
