Southern Wilderness, Frog Tribe.

Ever since the Vine Tribe became the overlord of the northern part of the Southern Wilderness, the Frog Tribe's life has been getting better and better. In addition, with sufficient food brought by planting and breeding, the population of the Frog Tribe has exceeded 1,500.

Of course, most of these people are tourists that the Teng tribe doesn’t want. Although there are many of them, their quality is relatively poor, and there are all kinds of people.

It is also because of this that, as the leader of the Frog Tribe, Huo Meng's management pressure becomes increasingly greater. Even with the Frog God suppressing them, these people still cause trouble from time to time, causing a lot of headaches.

After the beginning of spring this year, the Teng Tribe began to prepare for entering the Southern Wilderness. Except for the Shangui Tribe which had already decided to relocate its entire clan, the other four affiliated tribes were also notified.

Of course, since this was an expedition, the Teng Tribe did not force all subordinate tribes to participate. They just notified them that those who wanted to participate could go, and those who did not want to participate would not be forced.

Because of this, with the exception of the Mountain Turtle Tribe, the other three tribes, the Otter Tribe, the Giant Claw Tribe, and the Thorny Fly Tribe, all made it clear that they would not go, because the journey was too far. With their strength, they could not even think about opening up new land in the central region.

But Huo Meng was in a dilemma, because the Frog Tribe could only get to where they are today because they firmly followed the footsteps of the Vine Tribe. Now the Vine Tribe wanted to go to a farther place, should they follow? Huo Meng thought about it for a long time but couldn't make up his mind. In desperation, he had to find the Witch of the Frog Tribe and planned to discuss it with him.

“Squeak…”

Huo Meng pushed open the door of the stone house where the Frog Tribe Shaman lived, and saw the old Frog Tribe Shaman teaching a young girl to draw a witch scroll beside the table.

The witch of the Frog Tribe is already very old. Although he has regained his witch powers and is in much better physical condition after welcoming the new Frog God, sooner or later he will not be able to withstand the invasion of time.

Therefore, a few years ago, he selected a young girl from the tribe as his successor and taught her everything he knew, hoping that she could take his place and lead the tribe forward.

After Huo Meng came in, the Frog Tribe witch looked at him, motioned him to wait, and then continued to teach the girl how to draw the witch scroll.

Not until the wizard scroll was completely drawn did the wizard of the Frog Tribe finally raise his head and a smile appeared on his face.

"Luyi, you draw very well, much better than I did back then."

The girl named Green Clothes was very happy, but she still said modestly: "It's all thanks to the witch religion."

The Frog Tribe witch smiled and touched her head, told her to continue studying, then turned to look at Huo Meng.

"What does the chief want from me?"

The witch of the Frog Tribe was somewhat cold towards Huo Meng, because after the Frog Tribe migrated to the Vine Tribe, almost all the power of the tribe fell into the hands of Huo Meng, and he became a mascot-like existence.

Later, although Jiang Xuan found a new frog god for them and the frog tribe witch regained his power, the warriors in the tribe still obeyed Huo Meng's command and only took the witch as the main person during sacrifices.

Although the Frog Tribe witch didn't say anything, he was definitely unhappy in his heart. He was just too old to fight for power anymore.

Huo Meng was well aware of the Frog Tribe witch's dissatisfaction with him, but he could not care less now. No matter what conflicts there were between the two, they were not as important as the survival of the tribe.

"Wu, I came here to ask you about whether our Frog Tribe should send people to the central part of the Southern Wilds when the Vine Tribe goes there. I think this matter may be related to whether the Frog Tribe can continue to grow in the future."

After hearing Huo Meng's words, the Frog Tribe Shaman's expression finally became serious. After all, this matter concerned the future of the tribe, and he was the tribe's Shaman, so he couldn't just ignore it because of personal grudges.

The Frog Tribe witch sat on the chair he bought from the Vine Tribe's trading area, and motioned Huo Meng to sit on another chair.

Then, the witch of the Frog Tribe slowly said, "Since the leader has come to me, I believe you have an idea in mind, right? Tell me what you think first."

Huo Meng pondered for a moment and said, "Our Frog Tribe has been able to get to where we are today entirely because we followed the pace of the Vine Tribe. If we don't follow them this time, we will most likely be left behind in the future."

The witch of the Frog Tribe frowned slightly and said, "Do you think the Vine Tribe can succeed in opening up new territory in the central region this time? But I heard that there are several large tribes over there. Will they allow the Vine Tribe to gain a foothold?"

The fleet of the Vine Tribe brought back a lot of news from the central region, including news about the major tribes in the central region. Naturally, the witch of the Frog Tribe had also heard about it.

Those large tribes were established longer than the Vine Tribe and are also very powerful. The Frog Tribe witch doesn't think that the Vine Tribe can easily occupy another piece of territory.

Huo Meng said: "No one believed before that the Teng Tribe could defeat so many powerful tribes and rise up, but what about now? They have become the only big tribe in the north. Who can guarantee that the Teng Tribe will not succeed this time?"

"Also, I heard that the Mountain Turtle Tribe has decided to migrate with its entire clan. I think they are determined to fight the Teng Tribe in the central region."

The witch of the Frog Tribe fell silent. When the Vine Tribe encountered a strong enemy in the past, he didn't look good either. He even planned to let the Frog Tribe take the opportunity to leave the Vine Tribe. However, because of Huo Meng's insistence, the Frog Tribe stayed and really won the bet.

Now, he still didn't think the Teng tribe could gain a foothold in the central part of the Southern Wilderness. What should he choose this time? He thought for a long time, and finally looked at the girl in green, who was his successor who he had been training for several years.

"Green, come here first."

The frog tribe wizard waved his hand, and the girl in green immediately walked to his side.

"You heard what we said just now, right? I'm old now, and my brain can't keep up with the current situation. You are the next witch of the Frog Tribe. Tell me what you think."

Green hesitated for a moment: "It's such a big thing, can I... can I do it?"

The witch of the Frog Tribe encouraged him, "Don't be afraid. You will have to face these things sooner or later. Be brave. It doesn't matter even if you say something wrong."

Green finally nodded, thinking carefully for a moment before mustering up the courage to speak: "I think we should follow the Ivy Tribe."

The latest novel is published first on Liu9shuba!

Huo Meng's eyes lit up, and the frog tribe wizard, who always played it safe, frowned slightly, but he still encouraged: "Tell me your reasons."

Green Clothes said: "I think the leader is right. Our Frog Tribe has developed so quickly because we have always supported the Vine Tribe. We have also gained more trust and benefits from the Vine Tribe than other affiliated tribes."

"If we don't go this time, the Teng tribe's trust in us will weaken, and they won't take us with them when something good happens in the future."

The witch of the Frog Tribe nodded, and then raised a question: "Although what you said makes sense, our Frog Tribe has finally trained some powerful warriors. What if we send them to the central part of the Southern Wilderness and they are damaged?"

Greenie blinked slyly: "Who said we have to send powerful warriors? We just want to express our firm support for the Vine Tribe."

"Hasn't the chief been troubled recently by the frequent troubles in the tribe? Why not send all these people to the central region? If the Teng tribe wins, they will have made great contributions. If the Teng tribe loses, it won't be a pity if they die."

The Frog Tribe wizard's eyes lit up, and then a smile of great satisfaction gradually appeared on his face. He patted the man in green on the shoulder. Although he didn't say anything, his eyes were full of admiration.

Huo Meng's eyes lit up, and he thought this was a good idea, but he raised another question: "What if they don't want to go?"

Green Clothes said: "If they don't go, it means they are disobeying the tribe's orders. We can ask the Frog God to take back their totem power and take the opportunity to expel these people from the tribe. This way, we won't lose anything."

Huo Meng slapped his thigh and said, "Yes, why didn't I think of that? Lu Yi is right, let's do it!"

The witch of the Frog Tribe laughed loudly, "Hahahaha... I'll leave the rest to the leader. Green Clothes, come, let's continue learning how to draw the witch scroll. There were some places you didn't draw carefully enough just now."

"yes."

Green-clothed man sat back at the table and spread out a new animal skin roll.

The witch of the Frog Tribe was very satisfied with this inheritor and was more attentive when imparting knowledge, sharing everything he knew.

Huo Meng also got the answer he wanted. After saying goodbye to Wu and Lu Yi, he immediately went to the tribe to gather those who liked to make trouble.

A few days later, the Frog Tribe announced that it would send a part of its people to follow the Vine Tribe to the central part of the Southern Wilderness, and expressed its determination to loyally support the Vine Tribe and keep up with the pace of its progress.

The Vine Tribe naturally welcomed this and fully affirmed the loyalty of the Frog Tribe. Both sides were very happy.
