The food of the Mundari people is very simple. The patriarch brought a black iron bucket and an iron plate, and his two children lit dry cow dung as fuel. This is the same as the yak dung used by Tibetans in the domestic plateau areas. Fuel is a principle.

It can also be said that the long-horned cow's status in the hearts of the Mundali people is equivalent to the status of the yak in the hearts of the Tibetans, and its whole body is a treasure.

The patriarch poured the ground corn meal into the iron bucket, stood up and walked to the two big trees on the edge of the herd, and Liu Wei followed.

The patriarch scooped up half a pot of water from the canopy and began to knead the dough with his hands.

In the savanna, water is a very expensive commodity, and the Mundari people use the tree canopy to store rainwater for daily use.

Liu Wei was still chatting with the clan leader with a smile on his face. If it weren't for the digestive medicines provided by the system, he would have to consider the hygiene of this meal.

The chief placed the kneaded dough one lump at a time on the red-hot iron plate, then flattened it with his palms, and baked it for a few minutes. The most important food in Mundari people's lives, corn cakes, was ready. .

The patriarch handed the first baked tortilla to Liu Wei.

Liu Wei didn't even look at the tortillas carefully and just fed them into his mouth.

The patriarch looked at Liu Wei with a smile and expectant look on his face. Liu Wei chewed and nodded, "Yeah~, it has a faint sweetness and fragrance!"

The patriarch was very happy to receive satisfactory comments from the guests. He continued his superb cooking skills and sprinkled some sesame seeds and chili powder on the tortillas at the back. His two children ate them with gusto.

Liu Wei asked curiously: "Aren't your two children married yet?"

The patriarch nodded: "It takes twelve cows to find a woman. After the cows give birth, we can find women for the two brothers!"

Liu Wei nodded. Considering the local economic conditions, twelve longhorn cattle as a bride price were indeed quite expensive. It is estimated that many tribesmen would not be able to find wives.

"Are there many single men in the tribe?" Liu Wei asked.

The patriarch nodded: "Many, they are willing to live with their own herds. In their minds, longhorn cattle seem to be more important than women!"

"Hey~"

Liu Wei couldn't help but sigh.

It seems that the situation of not being able to afford a wife because of the bride price occurs not only in China, but also in backward Africa.

After dinner.

it's getting dark.

The patriarch took his two sons to patrol the herd, and Liu Wei followed.

The clan leader went out of his way to meet several Mundari warriors who were guarding the outside of the herd. Two of them held AK47 rifles in their hands, and several others held spears in their hands.

The clan leader introduced: "They are responsible for keeping vigil tonight to prevent people from other tribes from stealing cattle!"

Liu Wei asked: "Have there been any conflicts?"

The patriarch nodded,

Pointing at a tribesman holding an AK47 rifle, there were many stab wounds on his back, "It is the bravest warrior in the tribe!"

In their minds, it is a very honorable thing to have a knife wound on one's body. They are protecting their cattle.

The patriarch also said: "He has killed people!"

Liu Wei was shocked when he heard this. He pointed at the AK rifle in his hand and asked, "Was it shot with a gun?"

The Mundari warrior nodded, "Kill three!"

With a smile on his face and very proud.

On the way back after inspecting the cattle, Liu Wei asked the clan leader, "Have you ever thought about resolving tribal conflicts peacefully?"

The clan leader nodded and said: "Of course, in the eyes of the older generation, war is a very extreme way of defense. Every year, clan members die in wars. Since I became the clan leader, our tribe has had more than 20 young people. die.

I don't want this to happen again.

But Liu Wei, the cattle are our lives. If they miss the cattle, they must step over our bodies.

The young people in the tribe have a strong desire to fight, and they need to rely on fighting to protect the tribe!"

It sounds a little scary.

However, in the vast African continent, this kind of conflict between tribes has lasted for hundreds of thousands of years.

"You can sit down and negotiate peacefully!" Liu Wei felt that his proposal was a bit presumptuous and added, "I hope my suggestion did not offend you!"

The clan leader didn't pay attention and said with a smile: "We talked about it. The two tribes talked about it once seven years ago, and it only lasted two years. But you know, Liu Wei, there is a shortage of materials on the grassland. We all rely on planting and grazing to maintain our lives. Even if It’s because they don’t care about our cattle that they will start a war over water and grassland!”

The actual situation seems to be far more complicated than Liu Wei thought.

The patriarch looked at Liu Wei's somewhat melancholy expression, took his hand and walked to the edge of the stake, and said gently, "Don't worry, Liu Wei, you are our most distinguished guest, we will protect your safety!"

Liu Wei shook his head and said: "I can't think of a way to help you!"

The clan leader smiled slightly and did not answer. The tribal conflicts over the years are not so easy to resolve!

He reached out and held the newly burned cow dung in his hands, rubbed it with his hands, and then smeared it on Liu Wei's face and shoulders.

Liu Wei asked curiously: "What does this mean?"

The patriarch explained: "Cow dung ash can prevent mosquito bites. There are more mosquitoes in the tribe at night. We are used to it. Your body is easily affected by mosquitoes!"

"Thanks!"

After the patriarch helped Liu Wei apply it, he said, "Get some rest!"

Liu Wei turned off the live broadcast and lay down on the wooden board.

Daylight had just arrived on the savanna, but the sunlight was already very dazzling. Liu Wei, who was sleeping in the open air, felt uncomfortable and opened his eyes. At this time, the entire Mundali tribe began to operate as usual.

The tribesmen walked to their own cattle pens with fodder cut from afar in their hands to feed the longhorn cattle.

Have a smile on your face.

Looks very happy.

After feeding the cows, groups of three or three crowded together and sat on the ground, talking and laughing.

The patriarch came back from his inspection and walked up to Liu Wei, "Have you washed your face?"

Liu Wei shook his head.

He reached out and took Liu Wei's arm, walked behind the bull's butt, and then patted the bull's butt.

"Zi~"

The bull urinates and ejaculates.

The patriarch stretched his head over, rubbed his face and hair with his hands, and washed them together.

Liu Wei was dumbfounded!

He had heard that some tribes on the African grasslands did not bathe or wash their faces for a year due to lack of water. Today was the first time he saw people using cow urine to wash their hair and faces.

After the patriarch finished washing, he smiled and said to Liu Wei: "The urine of the longhorn cow has a sterilizing effect and can also make the hair yellow. Look at them, they wash their hair with cow urine every day!"

Liu Wei took a look in the direction of the patriarch's finger. In the corner of the tribe, there were many naked children standing behind the bulls, washing their hair with cow urine. Their hair was yellow, and it was a little reflective under the sun. Spiritual boy.

but……

Liu Wei was very resistant.

Reminiscent of the patriarch's enthusiasm and the Mundari people's hospitality, it was difficult for Liu Wei to refuse, so he had no choice but to bend down.

Close your eyes and mouth tightly!

The patriarch smiled and patted the cow's butt.

Zhi~

The cow urine hit his head like a stream of tap water.

He stretched out his hand and rubbed it vigorously.

Great flavor.

But I feel a cool feeling after washing.

Pangpang, who was standing aside, was dumbfounded as he stared at his master's strange behavior. He couldn't help but look back at his crotch!
