Jiang Xue looked around. She really didn't expect that the Bamboo Tribe would be in a desert full of saxauls, and the place where they depended for survival was actually just an oasis.
"Do you think you can see our chief just because you want to?" the man snorted coldly, "This is our Bamboo Tribe's territory, you'd better leave!"
Jiang Xue glanced at him and said, "You're being so kind. I just heard you wanted to move out of here, so I came here with good intentions to meet you. Is this how you treat me?"
"This is our Bamboo Tribe's business, so we don't need the Snake Tribe to meddle in it."
Um?
Jiang Xue was very surprised.
It's interesting. You are about to find another way out, but you still speak so arrogantly. Who gives you the courage?
"Then can I ask you another question..."
Before Jiang Xue could finish her words, the man said with his nose turned up to the sky: "No comment!"
“…”
Jiang Xue never thought that they would be so ungrateful.
"Well, in that case, I'll leave."
However, since I'm here, how can I leave without completing my mission?
She glanced at the oasis, turned around and walked into the depths of the desert.
When she reached a sand dune, she used teleportation again while no one was around, and this time she actually entered the oasis.
The oasis is full of green, unripe sand dates.
The crown of the saxaul tree is very large and the trunk is very thick, unlike the varieties she has seen before. The saxaul tree is also larger than ordinary dates.
There is a shallow beach next to the saxaul forest, and the water is so clear that you can see the bottom.
Looking at their tribe again, there were no buildings inside. All I could see was yellow sand and piles of yellowed bamboos lying beside the shallows.
"Hey, who are you? How did you get to our tribe?" Just as she was about to go find the main cave of the Bamboo Tribe, a child said behind her, "We haven't had any guests in our Bamboo Tribe for a long time!"
Jiang Xue glanced at him and found that he was just a skinny kid in his teens.
"Little brother, can you take me to find your clan leader?"
The boy looked at her curiously. He scratched his head and said, "Are you looking for our chief? He's resting in the cave right now, so it's not very convenient."
Resting in broad daylight?
Could it be that they are also creatures that hide during the day and come out at night?
"Why is your clan leader resting in broad daylight?"
"There is less and less water in our tribe. We can reduce unnecessary water use by doing more activities at night." The boy pursed his lips and told the truth.
Jiang Xue didn't respond, but stared at the oasis in front of her and said, "Do you usually rely on these jujube trees for your livelihood?"
"Yes. We lack water here, so only the saxaul can grow and bear fruit here." The boy looked at her, reached out and plucked an unripe green date and handed it to her: "Try it, the saxaul here is very sweet."
Jiang Xue took it and took a bite.
The juice of the sand date bursts in the mouth instantly, leaving a lingering fragrance on the lips and teeth.
I never expected that there would be such a treasure trove in the Bamboo Tribe.
Jiang Xue looked around, hummed lightly, and followed him to their main cave.
As soon as she entered the cave, she shouted "check in."
[Successfully sign in for 296 consecutive days, and receive 296 achievement points and an additional 20 Elaeagnus angustifolia seedlings.]
Jiang Xue was very surprised. She was rewarded with an Elaeagnus saxaul sapling for signing in here?
But can the saxaul saplings survive in the Snake Tribe's territory? It seems there's no sandy land around the Snake Tribe's territory.
The boy took her into the cave, found the chief and woke him up: "Chief, someone is looking for you."
Jiang Xue could never have imagined that the chief of the Bamboo Tribe was actually a fat man weighing at least two hundred pounds.
The fat man was woken up by someone and said impatiently: "Shali, don't you know that daytime is our time to rest?"
"I know." Sand said timidly, "But there's a guest looking for you over there."
"Who is so ungrateful as to disturb my sweet dreams?"
As the fat man spoke, he glanced at Jiang Xue.
When he saw Jiang Xue standing at the entrance of the cave, his eyes lit up involuntarily.
"What a beautiful woman!"
He stared at Jiang Xue for a moment, then asked, "Where are you from?"
Jiang Xue felt a chill in her heart when she saw his black nose hair sticking out of his nostrils.
"Are you the chief of the Bamboo Tribe? How did your tribe become like this?"
"We used to be a tribe with abundant water and fertile land. Especially the bamboo forest near the tribe, which was always lush and green. It's only because we cut down too much bamboo that it has become like this." At this point, the fat man suddenly paused and asked, "Who are you and what are you doing in our bamboo tribe?"
Jiang Xue said, "I am the Snow Witch of the Snake Tribe. I want to talk to you about something now."
"If you have anything to say, just say it."
"Well, did you send Wu Bing and the other four to deliver horses to the Bluebird Tribe?"
"Horse?" The fat man thought for a moment, "That's true. What happened? Did something happen to them?"
Jiang Xue shook her head. "Not really. I came here today to discuss the matter of merging the tribes. I wonder what the chief thinks?"
At the mention of merging, the fat man's eyes lit up and he sat up from the bed in an instant: "What did you say? You are willing to merge with us. Are you going to join our tribe?"
"No, it's you who join our tribe. Your Bamboo Tribe is no longer fit for survival. But before that, I'd like to ask the chief to tell me where you got your horses from."
