Chapter 2: The Hunter In Charge of Thunder and the Planting Ritual

10790 BC

With the help of the system, Tan Weili was successfully born into a tribe in the region of Salisbury, England.

The moment Tan Weili was born, the rainbow light of the sun magically shot into the cave where the tribe lived.

The dazzling light instantly made all the tribe members unable to open their eyes.

With the system’s help, the tribe’s shaman felt that this child had a bright future!

Hence, he decided to take Tan Weili in as an apprentice.

After ten years of study, the shaman who taught Tan Weili welcomed the last moment of his life.

Tan Weili was not surprised at all.

The people of this era generally only had a lifespan of 20 to 30 years.

The shaman was already 30 years old. To die at this age, he must have died of old age.

Tan Weili silently watched the shaman die and took over the religious power of the tribe from him.

Then, he began to ambitiously propose his plan to build the stone formation!

However, this plan had just begun when it failed shamelessly.

It wasn’t that someone in the tribe was against his opinion. In this era where science was covered in dust, such a thing was almost impossible.

What really restricted his plan were two objective factors.

First of all, the local productivity was backward, and there was a lack of manpower.

According to the academic research of the 21st century, historians and archaeologists generally believed that this was the case.

In the beginning, the aboriginals in the region of England had mobilized more than 500 young and strong laborers in order to build the Stonehenge of Salisbury!

However, Tan Weili’s tribe did not have 500 young men.

Even if the old, the weak, the women, and the children were included, the population only reached 50 people!

Even so, they were considered one of the largest tribes in the Salisbury area!

In addition to the lack of production and manpower, there was another factor that restricted the implementation of this plan.

That’s right!

Maybe it was because he was 21 years old that he couldn’t understand how poor the vocabulary of the primitive people of this era was.

However, the reality was that no matter how hard Tan Weili tried, he could not clearly describe the construction of the giant stone formation to the tribe members.

When Tan Weili said, “The gods and my ancestors told me that this winter in the future will last for hundreds and thousands of years.”

“With our current state, we cannot survive this winter. We have to change!”

Then, all the tribe members present looked at him in confusion.

They could understand who the gods and ancestors were, and they attached great importance to Tan Weili, who had issued oracles and revelations from the ancestors.

They could understand the meaning of winter.

This was because winter was something they had to face all the time.

However, there were no numbers like ‘100’ or ‘1000’ in their vocabulary bank, because they had no use for them.

They also could not understand the concept of years. In the future, these concepts of time were only used in animal husbandry and farming, and had little to do with the primitive people who made a living by hunting and gathering.

That was why they didn’t know how long the winter that Tan Weili mentioned would last.

As for change?

This term was something from another world to the primitive people who lived their lives the same way.

Tan Weili naturally could not build the stone formation immediately when he could not even convey a complete order.

After realizing this, Tan Weili chose to take a step back and slowly develop his own tribe.

On one hand, he began to organize the tribe’s productivity development.

Under his guidance, the tribesmen began to eat grass seeds that were suspected to be the ancestors of oats and wheat, and tried to grow them in primitive and simple ways.

Under Tan Weili’s guidance, the tribe’s food began to fill up.

The population was also gradually increasing.

On the other hand, he wanted the tribesmen who would be responsible for building the stone formation a few generations later to understand his orders.

Tan Weili began to tell stories to the children in the tribe.

At first, the story he told was very simple. There was only one paragraph, “The gods and ancestors gave a hunter the power of thunder and lightning. His life changed and he could use thunder and lightning to easily capture his prey. However, his family was also struck to death by lightning while he was sleeping.”

Almost all the vocabulary Tan Weili used to tell the story was already in the tribe.

The only unprecedented word was ‘change’!

Through this story, Tan Weili let the children in the tribe know that ‘change’ was a state. It could be good or bad, but it must be different from the past.

After spending an entire lifetime instilling the concept of ‘change’ into the next generation of the tribe…

Tan Weili ended his life in 10760 BC.

In 10750 BC, Tan Weili was once again born into this tribe.

Due to the system’s help, his birth was once again abnormal.

Originally, outside the cave where the tribe lived, it had been raining heavily for half a month.

Seeing the water outside the cave gradually rise and soon flood the cave, the tribe members were already considering whether to leave this place and find a new home.

However, the moment Tan Weili was born, the rain stopped, and the sun shone on the earth again.

The tribe’s shaman was in a daze.

He vaguely remembered that an elder in his tribe had once said that his teacher had a similar phenomenon when he was born.

As a result, he, who was nearly twenty years old, chose this child to be his heir.

In the process of teaching the child, the shaman was surprised to find that the child not only looked like his teacher when he was born, his personality and actions were exactly the same as his teacher.

When he reached the end of his life, looking at the child who looked very similar to his teacher, the old shaman used his last bit of strength to say to him, “Change!”

“Change.”

Tan Weili held the shaman’s hand, which used to be his student but was now his teacher, and replied.

Hearing this, the old shaman’s lips curled into a smile and he left the world.

At the last moment of his life, he knew that this child would definitely be able to bring change to the tribe, just like the hunter in his teacher’s story who had mastered lightning.

Bring about a good change!

Tan Weili, who was once again in power as a shaman, was not in a hurry to build the giant stone formation.

He was just telling stories to the children step by step, expanding the vocabulary of the tribe.

But this time, his story was a little more complicated.

He said to the children,”There was a shaman who, under the guidance of the gods and ancestors, buried a grass seed on the ground when the ice and snow melted, as a sacrifice to the gods and ancestors.”

“When the snow was about to fall, he got ten grass seeds.”

“The shaman called the time between burying the seeds ‘years’, and the ritual ‘planting’.”

“Later, the shaman sacrificed the ten grass seeds given by the gods and his ancestors to them, so he got ten grass seeds.”

“That shaman called the ten tens ‘hundred’.”

“After that, the shaman sacrificed 100 grass seeds to the gods and his ancestors, so he got 100 grass seeds.”

“That shaman called ten hundreds ‘thousand’.”
