"Yes," Xuan Jie nodded, then turned his eyes to Alina, who was wearing her coat, and said, "Otherwise, how could I send her here to heal in time? Who knew that she would repay her kindness with grudges."
The sound of pretending to be joking made Alina's heart immediately angry.
But before the outbreak occurred, the elder made the final decision after careful consideration.
He slowly walked to Elina's side and signaled her to come to Xuan Jie's side first.
Before the two involved were confused, the words they said surprised everyone present.
"They have saved you by following the will of God, but you are so arrogant and unceremonious, and you should apologize. Why don't you kneel down and pray for forgiveness?"
Kneel down and pray for forgiveness?
These words shocked both of them, and some others had not yet reacted.
Alina wanted to say something, but the elder glared back at it.
"Yes...yes, I know I'm wrong."
Seeing that she was in a low mood, Xuan Jie hurried out to clarify the facts. He could just joke but just get over it.
"Strictly speaking, it was the mysterious man who saved her, so I owe it to that person's kindness."
Xuan Jie's explanation got what he wanted and fooled the embarrassing situation, but... Can such a solution really work once and for all?
The reason why the Great Elder had this requirement was that he not only had to consider personal factors, but also had to think about the future of the entire tribe.
If he can rescue the two of them from the bottom of the swamp that was targeted by Kurosawa, he must be a demon god, or at least an existence that the tribe cannot afford to provoke.
Since this is the case, we have to consider things carefully, so we have to let Alina lose small profits for the tribe.
After the conversation was almost done, it was already dark.
At the invitation of the Great Elder, Xuan Jie came to the site where the Shenmu tribe was stationed.
There is a clearing of trees in the dense jungle. They built low houses with leaves and branches, and the conditions are extremely simple.
Without the demon gods teaching technology, they can only use stone tools as the main production and self-defense tools, and even their clothes are primitive and extreme manifestations of vine leaves.
That night, in order to welcome Xuan Jie's arrival, the Great Elder held a bonfire meeting.
The meat they had never given up was roasted on the fire, and the aroma of the meat made many people salivate.
The elder specially arranged for Alina to follow Xuan Jie throughout the journey to prevent him from getting lost or something else happened.
From the beginning, Alina's eyes were always attracted by the barbecue, but even though she was drooling, she didn't go forward to eat.
And it was not just her, but most people around him were smelling it and didn't even come forward to taste the barbecue.
Xuan Jie looked around and checked the surrounding situation. What was hidden in the noisy atmosphere was actually sadness.
It seems that the living conditions of this tribe are not that comfortable, no wonder they were willing to follow her to leave their homeland at that time.
In Xuan Jie's memory, although this place is also a forest, it is much smaller than this.
With such a dense forest coverage, it is still a different story to say whether she could find it.
Looking at Alina whose eyes were full of barbecue, Xuan Jie was speechless and heartbroken.
"Why don't you cut it into some and try it if you want to eat it? The saliva that flows out will make the floor wet," Xuan Jie walked over and patted her shoulder, and said teasingly.
Lifting his hand and rubbing the saliva from his mouth, Alina stared at him with disdain, "Do you think this bite of meat is so easy to eat? Without merit, you are not qualified to touch it. Everyone is just here to smell the meat.
It's fragrant to satisfy your cravings."
It was really surprising that Xuan Jie was hearing that eating meat would require merit for the first time.
However, it is true to think about it carefully. If the tribe did not have the formula of medicine powder taught by A Cai, let alone monsters, even raptors could not be dealt with by bows and arrows.
The meat that was placed today even had to pay the price of life when hunting and killing.
While the two were chatting, the elder walked over with two plates of meat under the gaze of everyone.
"The meat is roasted, this is for you, please eat it while it's hot."
Alina pointed at herself with golden eyes, and saliva flowed out after receiving the elder's affirmative nod.
"Thank you, elder, then I'm not polite!"
The elder responded with a smile, then turned around and walked back to the barbecue.
Holding a plate with a piece of meat, Xuan Jie noticed that even the elders had no precedent for cutting off the meat and tasting it by himself.
Looking at the hot gaze in their hands from all directions means that they have not eaten the meat at least last month.
What surprised Xuan Jie the most was that even though Alina was so greedy that she didn't stuff the meat into her mouth and swallow it immediately.
In front of him, dozens of children of five or six years old were staring at the meat cutlet without any hesitation.
"Is the monsters in the forest so powerful? They can actually make a piece of meat so tempting."
When Xuan Jie was feeling emotion, Alina had already taken a knife and found a fairly flat stone and placed the wooden plate on it.
Judging from the movements, she wanted to divide the meat chop into small blocks and distribute it to these greedy children.
But no matter what, it cannot be evenly divided, and it is always a little worse.
Just as she was about to change the size, another wooden plate squeezed over.
"I've been unable to see it when I was young, give me the knife," he said, without caring about Alina's doubts, and took the knife over.
The steak is not big, and it is indeed difficult to share it with dozens of children.
Xuan Jie cut one quarter of the cut from the beginning, picked up the long strip of flesh with his hands and looked at Elena.
"Don't move your mouth, or I'll force it."
Hey!
Before Alina could recover from this sentence, Xuan Jie had already handed the meat strip to her mouth.
Smelling the smell of flesh that I had dreamed of, my mouth couldn't help but open.
"No one wants to eat what you spit out. Hurry up and share the rest with these children. I'm going to invite you and your children to a full meat feast tomorrow."
The whole meat feast is something that people in the Shenmu tribe dare not think about, and the possibility of realization is almost zero, so they are just trying to enjoy listening.
After chewing carefully, Elina picked up the knife and chuckled.
Then I'm waiting for you to invite us to a full meat feast tomorrow. I also want to see how people outside the forest are hunting.
No one, including Alina, took this sentence in his heart. They knew best how terrifying the monsters in the forest were.
Similarly, Xuan Jie didn't take this matter to heart.
Because for him, this simplicity is not a matter at all.
Although she was so greedy, she still cut the meat into meat and distributed it to the child. Alina's selfless behavior was nodded by the elder.
The reason why Xuan Jie distributed the meat to his children was just because the meat chops were not used to eating them, which was not due to good intentions.
