Huishan has forgotten how many sunsets it has been since he saw so much food put together. In his memory, when he was a child, the Huishan tribe did not eat until they experienced the battle that nearly wiped out their tribe.
There will be so many foods appearing together.
Although these foods are now filled with a strong and almost indispensable smell of blood, the posthumous people have already developed the skill of drawing cakes to satisfy their hunger. They can already imagine what it will look like when these cold corpses of monsters turn into golden barbecue.
The people who followed the tribe leader out to greet the A'ao tribe were all well-known figures in the tribe, but without exception, they were all in a trance by the food that was placed in plain sight.
The ground suddenly trembled, and the Huishan tribe woke up from the frequent earthquakes. Huishan smiled and quickly ordered people to clean up the place and let the A'ao tribe's team into the camp.
After working for a long time, the people of the two tribes finally sat down together. The A'ao tribe was very generous and brought out some food for the people of the Huishan tribe to eat half full.
As for some of the leader-level figures in the tribe, they naturally ate more delicious barbecue in the tent in Gray Mountain.
“Black seed venison!”
As the host, the leader of the Huishan tribe who should have prepared food to entertain the Ah Tao tribe was talking sheepishly to ease the embarrassment, but he was stunned when he saw the barbecues being served.
Black-seed deer? Didn’t Jinke Hunting Team and the others see someone hunting black-seed deer? Did Ah Ma also encounter it on the way here? Did they also buy the food from that large tribe?
Because of some deep-rooted thoughts, Huishan never thought about other possibilities.
Hearing Hui Shan's question, Ah Tao smiled. This smile made Hui Shan feel a little proud. As expected, the words of the old man below made Hui Shan completely unable to sit still.
"Why couldn't we have hunted it ourselves? The black-seed deer...isn't nothing."
Ye Zhongming rolled his eyes as he listened. It turns out that posthumous children, like people on earth, have the habit of pretending to be sexy.
"impossible!"
Many core tribesmen in Gray Mountain expressed their disbelief in unison.
Okay, you guys are really upright. Ye Zhongming cut off a piece of black seed venison and put it in his mouth. This was the most delicious food he had eaten since arriving in the secret realm.
"Nothing is impossible. I have recently learned a word, the perspective of development, Huishan. We must look at problems from this perspective. The A'ao tribe is no longer the former A'ao tribe."
Ah Tao stood up and immediately attracted everyone's attention. The old man walked to the center of the tent, pointed to the deceased people sitting around outside the open tent door and said, "Do you know who they are?"
Many people from the Gray Mountain Tribe looked over, with blank expressions on their faces.
"Let me show you something, brother Huishan."
Ah Tao waved his hand, and a tribesman brought over an animal skin package and placed it on the wooden table in Huishan. Then he walked over and pulled down the door curtain.
Huishan opened it, leaned back subconsciously, took a closer look, and finally could no longer conceal his shock.
Whether it was the food he had seen Ah Tao before or the fact that he later learned that they were hunting black-seeded deer, although Hui Shan acted surprised, he actually had many guesses in his mind, and he was able to deduce what might have happened based on these results.
But after seeing this thing, Huishan was really shocked. He couldn't believe it was true.
This is a family card.
Every tribe of posthumous people will have a clan card that represents inheritance. This is a token of each clan leader and a symbol of the rights of the entire clan.
But when a tribe owns another tribe's clan card, there is only one possibility, which is to destroy or annex the other tribe.
Because even if a tribe is naturally extinct, the clan tokens will still be sent to the royal city and will never flow outside.
The A'ao tribe destroyed a posthumous tribe? And it was... the Dabu tribe?!
Strictly speaking, both the A'ao tribe and the Huishan tribe are tribes within the sphere of influence of the Dabu tribe. In the event of a foreign war, they must obey the orders of this tribe.
But now, the clan card of this medium-sized tribe was placed in front of him.
Thinking of the fifty people from the A'tao tribe hunting the black-seeded deer monster, Hui Shan suddenly realized that the purpose of the A'tao tribe's arrival today may not be as simple as he thought.
After the door curtain fell, the camp became an independent small world. Occasionally, some sounds came from inside, but no one could hear clearly amidst the noise of hundreds of tribesmen outside. However, this day, many members of the Gray Mountain tribe felt the same.
Yes, they waited outside for a long, long time.
Afterwards, the clan leader Hui Shan came out and solemnly announced that the Hui Shan tribe would be merged into the A'ao tribe to form a new... Yunding tribe.
This incident naturally caused an uproar, and the tribesmen of Huishan began to fiercely oppose it. Huishan had already recognized this, and all the core members of the tribe went to their respective areas of responsibility and began to whisper with the tribesmen.
At the same time, cart after cart of food and clothing needed for the cold season were pushed to the open space in front of the leader and battalion commander of the Gray Mountain tribe.
"Maybe you think it's sudden, but I feel the same way." Huishan stood behind the food, with complicated emotions in his eyes.
When the clan members heard the clan leader speaking, they all gradually became quiet.
"I know you may have some incomprehensions. In fact, I am the same. I know you are angry about giving up our clan name, and I am the same. I know that even if you freeze to death and starve, you still hope to preserve the inheritance of the Gray Mountain Tribe.
,me too."
Huishan clenched his fists, and occasionally you could see the hard bulge on his cheeks, which was because he was constantly gritting his teeth.
Many clan members had their eyes reddened by this, and they gradually understood the choice of their clan leader.
"But, can we freeze to death and starve to death just for this pride? Is it worth it?" Huishan's voice was low, and he suddenly looked towards a corner, where a young tribesman was standing there with a cane.
His left leg has disappeared.
"Yangyin, the warrior of our tribe, a strong man of the younger generation, but before the last cold season, because of continuous hunting on an empty stomach, his weapon was broken by an iron-horned monster, and one of his legs was bitten off. If not,
He was very lucky and would be dead by now."
"And he, a man who has hunted many prey for the tribe, has to get the minimum standard of supplies during this cold season, just because he is no longer useful."
The young tribesman lowered his head, and the wooden crutch creaked as he squeezed it.
"Little Round Corner." Hui Shan's eyes fell on a little girl who was held in her mother's arms. She looked about three or four years old, but was very thin and her big eyes were a little dull.
"She must be hungry. In fact, she is starving every day because she has no father. Her food depends on the help of the tribe and the work of her mother. How did her father die? Hunting, hunting for the tribe.
She died when she was young, but we couldn't take good care of such a warrior relative who had sacrificed her life for the tribe, and because she was a girl, she didn't get much special treatment."
"There are also three Shanla uncles who died in Luosha Day. Why did they die? Three people from the Jinke hunting team did not come back from this hunting trip. Why didn't they come back? They only brought a little food. Why?"
"Because we are weak!" Huishan punched a monster corpse in front of him.
"Even if we pick the weakest monsters to attack, we will face the threat of death. We don't have enough food, we don't have good weapons, we don't have medicine, and our secret techniques are backward. If we don't change, how many sunsets can we last?
At that time, what would the last person from the Gray Mountain tribe be thinking about before he died?"
The entire tribe fell into silence. Even the person who had been the most vehement opponent lowered his head and bit his lip at this moment. His mind was full of the hardships he had endured and the unwillingness that often lingered in his heart.
"So when Big Brother Ah Tao came to us and proposed a merger, I refused at first, but there was a voice in my heart, knowing that this might be the only and last chance for the Gray Mountain Tribe."
"We used to stubbornly hold on to the so-called tribal pride, dignity, and inheritance, but everyone is dying. What's the use of these things! Those of you who objected just now tell me what's the use!"
"Can we make the sheep mark thing no longer happen? Can we make Yuan Jiao full? Can we make our people no longer die meaninglessly?!"
The gray mountain almost truly roared, and the sound made the entire mountainside buzz.
"So I agreed to Brother Ah Tao's suggestion because I couldn't find any reason to refuse, and I was grateful that he gave us this opportunity." Huishan said slowly after taking a breath, raised the thing in his hand and said, "Look
Have you arrived? This is the clan card of the Dabu tribe. Yes, they no longer exist. They were destroyed by the brothers of the A'ao tribe. The remaining people became slaves of the A'ao tribe. This is a fact. You guys
You can see for yourself.”
The tribesmen who heard the news for the first time looked in disbelief. Did the A'ao tribe do it to destroy the Dabu tribe?
But there was no reason why they didn't believe it. The A'ao tribesmen who were responsible for pushing the cart without weapons all lowered their heads and actually admitted what Huishan said.
"Slaves, maybe it doesn't sound good, but look at what they eat and wear. Is it better than us? They can eat well and wear warm clothes every day by doing some work. They don't have to worry about being hungry when the cold season comes.
Even if I freeze to death, I am willing to be such a slave!"
"But Brother A'ao did not directly conquer us with their powerful force and turn us into slaves. Instead, he proposed a merger. Maybe you all felt indignant just now, but you must understand that the A'ao tribe also wants to change its name.
! What we paid was far less than others, but we got the same benefits as others!"
"In this case, what reason do I have to refuse? What qualifications do I have to risk the lives of my tribe to maintain my pride?"
"This is my decision, Huishan!"
Ye Zhongming looked at this middle-aged man who was not tall but extremely strong and applauded these words in his heart.
This is a competent clan leader, a clan leader who truly cares about the tribe. He cares more about the life and death of his clan members rather than his own power.
Looking at the expressions of the Gray Mountain people below, Ye Zhongming knew that taking the first step was easier than expected.
When Huishan announced that those who disagreed with his decision could choose to leave with their clan cards, the speech ended, and the people of the A'ao tribe promptly began to promote themselves.
This was arranged by Ye Zhongming before, and the method was very simple, just eating and drinking, showing off weapons and equipment, and bragging at the right time, plus some A'tao tribes had stored up thousands of sunsets worth of... wine.
Many people are drunk, especially the people of the Gray Mountain Tribe. Even if they accept the clan leader's decision in their hearts, they still need a process of adaptation. This bend requires some external help to turn around. Alcohol is undoubtedly one of them.
.
The other kind is fighting.
The next day, some people wanted to leave, not many in number, dozens of them. They wanted to stick to the inheritance and still had to leave when the cold season was coming.
But Huishan didn't let them go. The tribe leader chose to give this place to them, and he took the tribesmen who were willing to follow him to live in the habitat of the A'ao tribe.
Ye Zhongming left a large amount of supplies, enough food and clothing to enable these dozens of people to survive the cold season. This undoubtedly won the favor of all the deceased people, and even doubts appeared in the hearts of these dozens of people, feeling that they
Was the decision wrong?
More than 150 people from the A'ao tribe, plus about 300 people from the Huishan tribe, formed a brand new team and set off towards the camp of the A'ao tribe.
Along the way, the Huishan tribe truly saw the power of the A'tao tribe, and saw the sharpness and tenacity of those weapons and equipment with light. They began to become interested, and later they also realized the power of Ye Zhongming, a foreign male samurai.
"Brother Huishan, now you know the reason why I asked you to take the magic crystal with you when you left. This kind of thing that even children don't want can be exchanged for good things that we can't even find with our lives from Ye."
Huishan held a white bone hammer that Ye Zhongming gave him for free, his eyes were dull and he could only nod.
He now really knows why the A'ao tribe is so powerful, because they found Ye...
With good equipment, the two sides launched a hunting competition along the way. They really felt that their strength had improved a lot. The Gray Mountain tribe was especially interested. They began to hunt monsters that they had never dared to touch before, and they could often win easily.
In other words, the bodies of monsters that could not be cut open in the past can now be cut open. The monster attacks that used to be seriously injured by a single touch can now withstand several attacks without any serious problems. This feels extremely good.
However, they soon discovered that the A'ao tribe was still more powerful than them, and their individual strength was a small level higher than theirs!
In the past, Huishan was a little stronger than Ah Tao!
Soon, there was an answer to this question. Huishan and his tribe knew that Ye had a magical potion that could improve his strength!
This was so good that Huishan immediately couldn't sit still and followed Ye Zhongming. After Ye Zhongming figured it out, he used twenty bottles of one-star evolution potion to exchange all the magic crystals of the Huishan tribe.
The strength of a group of warriors from the Huishan tribe who took these potions was immediately improved. With their numerical advantage, they could barely compete with the fifty elite warriors of Ah Tao.
Ye Zhongming was happy to see the two tribes becoming increasingly harmonious. However, the strength of these people had improved because of him, and Ye Zhongming also decided to improve his own strength.
The number of magic crystals in his hand now can be said to be the most since the beginning of the apocalypse. Moreover, he has collected a lot of materials collected during these dozens of sunsets, as well as materials from monsters. Those that are temporarily unused,
There are already a lot of them.
In the coming days, this number will grow rapidly. In this case, Ye Zhongming decided to use the Sacrifice Gate to see if he could get something good.
