Xiaobai took the black thing and looked at the Scandinavian tribesman who handed him the thing. The tribesman also held a dark thing in his hand.
Seeing that Xiaobai refused to eat, the tribesman tore off a strip from the black thing, put it in his mouth, chewed it carefully, raised his hand to gesture to Xiaobai, and raised his chin.
Xiaobai lowered his head to look at the thing in his hand, imitated the tribal people, tore off a strip from it, and put it in his mouth.
A strange smell instantly filled Xiao Bai's mouth, mixed with stench, fishy smell and weird salty taste. Only then did Xiao Bai understand what the thing in his hand was. It turned out to be a piece of fish meat that he didn't know how to make, emmmmm...
...or dried fish is more accurate.
It's just that the taste of this dried fish is really not complimentable. Xiaobai feels that even ordinary fish that is dried in the sun is more delicious than this dried fish.
In his previous life, Xiao Bai would definitely spit it out without hesitation. This stuff is poisonous and who knows if it will kill people. The smell is so disgusting.
But after struggling to survive in another world for nearly two years, Xiao Bai now doesn't care at all. No matter what the taste is, the most important thing is to fill his stomach. Now even if it's a can of canned herring, Xiao Bai will not hesitate.
Eat it.
Xiaobai chewed hard on the dried fish in his mouth, as if chewing firewood. Not to mention the dryness, the taste was not good. The only advantage was that it was food and could fill his stomach.
Although the dried fish was extremely unpalatable, Xiaobai didn't show any expression of dissatisfaction on his face. He chewed the dried fish calmly and even tore off another piece and put it in his mouth.
Including the leader, the Scandinavian tribesmen all observed Xiaobai and immediately became happy when they saw that he didn't show any strange expressions.
This dried fish is indeed not delicious, and even most tribesmen of the Poseidon Alliance will not eat it, but it is a traditional food in Scandinavia. Many times, they will use this kind of food to judge whether someone respects them.
Xiaobai's calm behavior of eating dried fish undoubtedly made them feel that they were respected.
"Hahaha..." The leader suddenly laughed.
The other tribesmen also laughed along with the leader, and the atmosphere seemed to suddenly become lively. The leader reached out and patted Xiaobai on the shoulder, and also picked up a piece of dried fish and tore it into pieces.
"Are you really a ronin?" The leader asked Xiaobai while eating dried fish.
"Of course." Xiaobai nodded without hesitation.
"You use weapons very well." The leader's words were not simply a compliment, but also a test.
"If I don't use it well, I might have died a long time ago." Xiaobai said calmly, can I tell you that the use of the one-handed ax was obtained by countless deaths? I'm kidding, I can't tell you.
"You are right, why did you come to our tribe?" the leader asked in Scandi.
"Because I want to live. I can't find any other tribes in this wind and snow." Xiaobai tore off another dried fish and put it in his mouth, chewing and shrugging.
"Why do you speak our language?" This is something that the leader can't understand at all. They are a small tribe. There are people in the Poseidon Alliance who can speak their language, but there are definitely not many of them. This is a small language, so there is no special effort to learn it.
It can't be learned.
"I learned it by accident." Xiaobai said casually.
"The snowstorm has stopped, are you planning to leave?" The leader's eyelids drooped slightly, he glanced at Xiaobai quietly, and asked pretending to be indifferent.
"I'm not leaving. I want to go to sea with you. I want to see the ocean." Xiaobai smiled and said.
"Ocean?" The leader raised his head in confusion and said to Xiao Bai: "The ocean is very dangerous, and no one can guarantee that he will come back alive."
"I can't guarantee my survival by continuing to be a ronin, so what's the difference?" Xiaobai said unceremoniously.
"Hahahahaha...Okay!" Xiaobai's answer made the leader very satisfied. He reached out and patted Xiaobai's shoulder: "Then you can stay in the tribe and follow me to the sea in the future."
"Thank you." Xiaobai said with a smile.
Xiaobai has now joined Scandinavia. It seems very simple, which is why he chose Scandinavia.
Scandilu is a very strange tribe. Their people advocate so-called freedom. Although there are tribal chiefs, they are of little use. If the chief can bring benefits to the tribesmen, then the tribesmen will follow the chief. If the chief can
If he cannot bring benefits to the tribesmen, then everyone will think that the chief is a piece of shit and has no respect at all.
Generally speaking, they feel that they are free and realistic. They will follow whoever can bring them a better life. No one can force them to do things. Everyone must make decisions for themselves and
Taking responsibility for this decision is very subjective.
It is very easy to join Scandilu. It is the easiest in the entire Poseidon Alliance. It is also very dangerous. Deaths are common. In addition, don't expect too much teamwork. Relationships are trivial to them.
The benefits are relatively reliable.
Xiaobai doesn't really like tribes like Scandilu, which are too impersonal, but this kind of tribe is just right for him now. It's hard for him to integrate into a humane tribe.
"I don't understand the ocean, when will I go to sea?" This time it was Xiaobai's turn to ask.
"Are you anxious?" The leader turned to Xiaobai and asked.
"No, I want to know more, just like I am a ronin and I know many things." Xiaobai arranged a reasonable explanation for himself.
"Hahaha." The leader laughed a few times and then said: "Look at how it is possible to go out to sea in such a heavy snowstorm. The offshore sea is already frozen and the ship cannot move at all. The distant sea is not frozen, but even if it is
We don’t have the guts to go. The ocean is much more dangerous than land. The water at this time is too cold and you will freeze to death if you fall into the water.”
Xiaobai nodded, continued to eat the dried fish and asked, "When will that be?"
"We'll have to wait until the wind and snow pass and the weather becomes warmer," the leader said.
"My name is Xiaobai." Xiaobai stopped tearing the dried fish and looked at the leader and said.
"I am Takumi of Scandinavia." The leader Takumi showed his neat teeth towards Xiaobai.
"Nice to meet you Takumi." Xiaobai nodded towards Takumi and continued to eat his own jerky.
"I'm also very happy that there will be an extra brave man on my ship." Takumi nodded towards Xiaobai.
Xiaobai stopped talking. While eating dried fish, he thought about it. It seems that there is no rush to go to sea. This is normal. Only madmen would go to sea at this time. They will almost certainly die. They will definitely wait until spring. That is to say
, he still has some time to use, and he can use this time to deepen his understanding of Scandinavia and see if what he knows is correct. (To be continued)
