Primitive Man: I Am a Charlatan

Ma Yue, a half-baked immortal cultivator who blasphemed the immortal grand Ancestor, was struck by lightning and transmigrated. The spiritual energy between heaven and earth in this primitive socie...

Chapter 171 Copper and Horse

How do the Fire Rabbit tribe make a living? Surprisingly, they fish near the coast.

More than a dozen people went out to sea on a boat. The fishing net... was very good, and seemed to be made of kneaded leather. It had good toughness and was quite delicate, much better than a straw rope fishing net.

Ma Yue also went out to sea twice and got quite a lot. In theory, this small tribe relied on fish, so the food supply was quite abundant.

The new chief was assigned by Ma Yue to go to the big tribe to gather information. 'Lu Yin' was the former chief of the 'Fire Rabbit' tribe. He was quite powerful and seemed to be quite good at fishing.

The fishing team of a single boat works very hard. They get up early in the morning and are lucky to be able to return home after dark.

A large rocky mountain on the sea, with many marine creatures similar to seals, basking in the sun...

'Lu Yin' meant that the 'Fire Rabbit' tribe needed such large foods, especially seal skins, which, after being rubbed, were the most important supplement to fishing nets.

Hunting seals is not easy. Even if your ship comes, the seals on the big reefs will not run away.

"It's too much trouble. Leave it to me." If we rely on this group of primitive people, we probably won't be able to get the seal today.

Ma Yue took a flying spear from a tribal warrior and flew it out from a distance of 30 meters, just in time to nail a seal that was about to flee back to the sea. Not satisfied yet, he fired a second, third, and fourth spear, and it was not bad, hitting two seals, a very high hit rate.

Ma Yue is a martial artist, with the precision of his spiritual awareness and the powerful inner strength that drives him, which is naturally not comparable to that of an ordinary fisherman.

The rest is simple.

This seal is quite big, definitely more than 200 kilograms. The seals in the previous life were not this big.

Ma Yue hunted two seals, making a huge contribution to the "Fire Rabbit" tribe. Not only did he get seal skins, but also more than 200 kilograms of seals, so much meat.

The fishing team of the 'Fire Rabbit' tribe returned to the beach excitedly.

"What's going on?" Ma Yue was confused. There were corpses inside and outside the cave where the "Fire Rabbit" tribe was stationed.

"It's over!" Lu Yin and a dozen or so able-bodied men from the 'Fire Rabbit' tribe looked very sad.

I guess they were raided by some tribe. Don't you want revenge? It seems like we're used to it.

Ma Yue was unfamiliar with the area and had difficulty communicating with the people in the tribe. However, now that this place was gone, what would he do next?

The new chief of the 'Fire Rabbit' tribe was quite unlucky. It was estimated that not long after he came back, the tribe was raided and half of his head was chopped off.

What to do next? Everyone looked at the former leader, Lu Yin, and Lu Yin looked at Ma Yue.

You damned bastard, before you died, where was the information you went to the big tribe to get? You were completely in the dark, how could you make a decision on your own?

Most importantly, Ma Yue had little knowledge of dialects, making verbal communication a struggle. Lu Yin couldn't write or draw, relying mostly on gestures, so even if he could understand, it wouldn't make much sense.

“Eat first!”

"Sleep! Get enough rest!"

Several sentries were posted that night, and no new raids were carried out.

"Let's go! Let's go to the big tribe to exchange." Ma Yue pointed to the two large seals caught at sea yesterday, and everyone finally understood what Ma Yue meant.

Why did Ma Yue know about the exchange? The Fire Rabbit tribe originally had two pottery jars. These were high-tech products, so naturally, they weren't something a small tribe could produce.

The two large seals are basically intact and weigh several hundred kilograms. They can be exchanged for a lot of good things.

As I said, in the primitive world, food is everything.

The former great leader, Lu Yin, had done this kind of exchange many times before, so he seemed to know it all very well. So, just follow him.

Damn it! The only two clay pots we had were taken away. Forget about drinking hot water. We even have to grill the fish to eat.

Including Ma Yue, there were thirteen people. This number seemed familiar. Well, when Ma Yue first traveled to the Hai Tribe, there were thirteen able-bodied men in the Hai Tribe.

Small tribes that mainly fished at sea didn't have much hunting skills on land. Fortunately, yesterday's fishing nets had caught a lot of sea fish, so there was still food for the journey.

Walk, walk, walk...

Bastard! Finally I have a pottery basin, I can boil hot water to drink.

Encountering a group of ignorant robbers, a group of thirty or so strong men, and they dared to challenge Ma Yue? After walking for several days, Ma Yue, full of rage, showed his prowess and killed seven or eight of the enemy men by himself...

The other team actually carried a clay basin and a clay pot with them, not bad!

"Witch, what should we do with these people?" Oh, some of the enemy had fled, and a dozen had surrendered. Ma Yue was truly too brave, even sending out a fireball that burned the enemy leader to death. Primitive people were superstitious. How could such a powerful witch withstand such a powerful witch? Surrender was a good option. From now on, I would follow this powerful witch.

"Take them along, at least we'll have more labor."

Together, the team numbered twenty. Indeed, war is inevitable. Several men from the original Fire Rabbit tribe also died in the conflict.

Along the way, Ma Yue demonstrated his god-level fireball skills many times, making it much easier to make fire and cook fish.

How much further is it!

Damn 'Lu Yin', always saying it's almost there, almost there...

After a month, I finally arrived at the place where "Lu Yin" was close.

"West Ghost Tribe!"

Huh? Someone among the captives actually knew this place. Lu Yin didn't deny it, and even went over to chat with the captive.

Is this dialect really pronounced like the word for "ghost"? Ma Yue wasn't sure.

Walking into the simple fenced yard of the big tribe, I felt familiar. Wasn’t this how it was when I first went to the Niupi tribe to trade?

There's nothing special about it. Ma Yue brought these people to trade basically just as an excuse.

'Lu Yin' understood the leader's intention very well. He walked in the trading fence and kept asking where the larger tribe was.

"Wu, are you a witch?" There was still a surprise. A man wearing good quality animal skins followed 'Lu Yin'.

"Yes! Divine power!" The man's dialect is somewhat similar to the language of the sea tribe, and more can be understood.

"Our tribe needs a powerful witch!" That's roughly what it means.

You're useless. I'm going home.

Ma Yue shook his head, the man was a little disappointed.

"Invite me to your house?" Ma Yue did not refuse quickly this time.

"Help us, and we will repay you." When the man saw that there was no hope of inviting Wu to join, he decided to help.

"What do you have?" Ma Yue was very straightforward.

"knife!"

Damn it! This isn't... bronze! This dagger is made entirely of copper.

Ma Yue took the short knife and tested its hardness, which was not bad.

"I'm going with you!" A tribe with bronze artifacts must be quite large. It must be stronger than the Western Ghost Tribe, right? What kind of deal is this? Ma Yue wouldn't even look at it.

There was no point in staying here, so Ma Yue took his group of people and followed the man out of the trading fence of the Ghost Tribe.

"Horse!" It became more and more familiar, but this horse was not very big.

The man enthusiastically gave Ma Yue a horse to ride, saying that it was better this way because walking alone was very tiring!
