Ashan saw his mother, Aying, in the crowd and couldn't help but breathe a sigh of relief. After three years of being together, Ashan had already considered himself as one of the members of the Honghuang tribe, and Aying was his mother, so he naturally didn't want anything unexpected to happen to her.

  Ashan's mother goes out with everyone every time, and someone gets hurt or dies. Every day from morning to night, Ashan worries about his mother leaving and hopes to find her figure among the survivors.

  Ashan decided to do his best to help the tribe and make it easier for them to survive. That night, Ashan called out to his mother from one side.

  "Mother, I have a way that is willing to hunt outside beasts more simply, I want to try it?" Ashan said.

  "Child, you spend all day with other kids in the tribe, how would you have a way?" Mother Aying.

  "Mother, the child saw that the wild boar surrounded by our tribe's enclosure couldn't jump out no matter how hard it tried. Why can't we dig a big pit on the mountain path where beasts must pass, cover it with some easily broken branches and then some mud? When prey passes over it, it will fall in, so you won't have to fight in battle, reducing the number of our brave warriors' deaths." Ah Shan said.

  Mother Aying listened to her son Ashan's plan and took him to the thatched hut in the middle of the tribe after a brief consideration.

  The thatched hut in the middle is where the female leader of the tribe lives. After Ayin reported to the female leader about Ashan's plan, the female leader decided to give it a try. If successful, it would be good for the entire tribe and even the human race; if failed, there would be no loss, just wasting some time.

  The next day, the brave hunters led by their leader went into the mountains again. The leader first had Ah Ying and others dig a deep and large pit on the path where the beasts must pass according to Ah Shan's requirements, covering it with branches and mud.

  Before long, two tigers fell in, and the female leader hastily ordered the tribesmen to thrust their weapons at them. Those whose weapons were not long enough picked up hundreds of pounds of rocks on the edge and smashed them down. Before long, the two tigers had already died.

  The female leader saw that this method was effective, so she called a part of the people to take out two old tigers first, and then called another part of the people to dig several more pits. The others, seeing that this method worked well, had been itching to try it out, and immediately dug over ten pits, waiting in ambush.

  By dusk, the leader led the crowd carrying two old tigers, four wild boars, one bear, a dozen sheep and some mountain chickens and rabbits. Today can be said to be a big harvest, and there is no personnel loss, only one person walked on the road carelessly and sprained his foot.

  Because this was Ashan's method, the female leader specially gave Ashan an extra piece of meat as a reward. Everyone naturally had no objections to this, and according to Ashan's method, not only was it safer, but the effect was also good. Today's harvest was more than three times that of previous days, enough for the tribe to eat for three to five days.

  Ashan and his mother, Ayang, returned to their thatched hut. Ashan asked his mother to recount the hunting process again, and based on her account, he proposed some suggestions for improvement. Firstly, put some sharp objects upwards in the pit, secondly, make marks around the trap to prevent oneself from falling down...

  Ashan began to cultivate the Nine Turns of Primordial Qi after his mother's rest. He didn't dare to slack off even for a moment, as in the vast and chaotic world, only the strong could survive. The first Great War between humans and demons had already passed, but how far was it from the demon tribe's massacre of the human tribe? Ashan didn't know, he just kept cultivating, making himself stronger to face various dangers.

  The next day, the female leader took the hunting team to enter the mountain. On the way to enter the mountain, Aying told the female leader Ayue's suggestion, and the female leader also thought it was feasible, so she ordered these two suggestions to be carried out.

  Everyone came to the big pit dug yesterday and found that in just one night, there was another deer, a cow, and traces of wild beasts were also found in several other pits, which should have escaped. Everyone hurriedly rearranged according to Ashan's suggestion.

  And in the surrounding areas, dozens of traps were re-dug, now a dozen or so people are responsible for several traps, and support each other when necessary. Another dozen or so people hunt small animals around them.

  One of them remembered that the bloody smell could attract beasts, so he threw a bleeding sheep in a place surrounded by many traps. Soon after, all kinds of beasts were attracted, including lions, tigers, bears, wolves, leopards, eagles... except for the eagle which flew away and escaped capture, most of them fell into the traps and were killed. Only one leopard managed to escape with injuries due to its agility, but was eventually killed by the combined efforts of humans.

  With the emergence of traps, the harvest and food reserves in the tribe have increased significantly. In just ten years, the population has grown from over 400 to over 1,000 people. The decrease in hunting-related deaths, the increase in food supplies, and the influx of people from other tribes have all contributed to the overall growth of the tribe's strength.

  The use of traps also gradually spread to other tribes, and the types of traps changed from single to diverse.

  It is worth mentioning that six years ago, the female leader felt her physical strength declining and her mother Ayin's contributions were getting bigger and bigger, so she passed on the position of leader to Ayin.
