The Bluebird leader walked over to him and whispered in his ear, "Chief Akagi, our witch has predicted that the Snake Tribe will have a disaster in the future, and the cause is a woman who can control fire. If you can find a woman like her in your Bear Tribe, let alone a marriage alliance, we could even join forces to destroy the Eagle Tribe."
After saying that, without waiting for Akagi to react, he left with a loud laugh.
Akagi was stunned. He had never expected that the Bluebird Tribe would actually see through his trick!
As soon as they left the Bluebird Tribe, the Snake Tribe's spirits were somewhat low. They didn't actually have any major grudges against the Bluebird Tribe, but who could have imagined that they came with high hopes, only to return disappointed.
Not only did he fail to exchange the pottery bowls from his tribe, he didn't even get any salt.
Along the way, everyone was just busy getting on with their journey, and no one spoke a word.
Jiang Xue couldn't stand this atmosphere. She looked up ahead, took two quick steps, and came to Mu Feng and said, "Mu Feng, there's an ambush ahead. Let's take another route."
Mu Feng looked at her in shock: "Axue, how did you know there was an ambush ahead?"
Jiang Xue smiled, but didn't answer him directly. She pointed to the northwest: "I remember we came from this direction when we came here, so we'll go from there again this time. Besides, it's almost dawn."
It's getting dark. If we really go forward tonight, the risk factor is quite high. I don't think you want to put everyone at risk, right? "
Mu Feng frowned and looked ahead.
Although he didn't know why Jiang Xue said such a thing, he had to admit that Jiang Xue hit the nail on the head.
This time, they mobilized almost half of the young and middle-aged men of the Snake Tribe and could not afford to make any mistakes.
For everyone's safety, he had to agree with her suggestion: "Okay, if that's the case, then let's go from here."
The Snake Tribe had too many people and was too obvious a target. Even if they changed their route, they would still be spotted by the enemy.
"That's ridiculous! Do they think they'll be alright after taking a long detour? Let's catch up with them! I don't believe they can get away this time!"
When the Snake Tribe entered the deep woods near the stream, Jiang Xue stopped and said, "Everyone, stop first. Let's find a place to hide the backpacks. The women should climb up the trees and hide. Everyone else, prepare to fight with us!"
Her sudden words surprised everyone.
Ah Qing asked, "Ah Xue, what's going on?"
Jiang Xue said, "Don't ask so many questions. It will be too late if you delay any longer." As she spoke, she turned her head and glanced behind her. "If I'm not mistaken, they should be from the Eagle Tribe."
When they heard it was the Eagle Tribe, everyone was filled with indignation: "What? It's them again! I'll fight them!"
"Don't be impulsive!" Jiang Xue shouted. "I believe we won't suffer any losses if we fight the Eagle Tribe. From what I've observed, there are only five of them in the market this time. I just don't know how many people they have in total."
Jiang Xue lied with her eyes open. Just now in the Bluebird Tribe's territory, the system had already revealed the spoiler:
[Warning: The Eagle Tribe is preparing to attack the Snake Tribe. Please prepare for battle! Victory in the battle will reward you with 300 achievement points.]
[New Mission 1: Xiaodao, the son of the Bluebird Tribe leader, suffers from a hidden illness. Please treat him. Completing the mission will reward you with 200 achievement points.]
There was a task and a warning, and Jiang Xue knew which one to choose with just a flick of her finger.
Xiaodao's illness cannot be rushed. In addition, the Bluebird Tribe now has a strong prejudice against the Snake Tribe. If they really want to do good for Xiaodao, they will definitely bring him to see him.
It was the plain where the wronged ghosts lingered. Jiang Xue felt a headache when she heard the name of this guy.
The Snake Tribe had suffered repeated losses at their hands, while they had also suffered losses themselves. The two tribes had long been locked in a bitter feud. Xiaodao's illness could be put aside for now, but the Eagle Tribe, their old enemy, was bound to rage whenever they encountered it.
Now it depends on how many people the other party will send out this time.
If they had the same number of people as we did, it might still be a tug-of-war.
But if they have fewer people than us, then we must let them know how powerful we are no matter what we do.
Come to think of it, I was merciful last time and let them leave without making things difficult for them. Now it seems that my actions are clearly asking for trouble!
Since they think they are easy to bully, we can only beat them to scare them!
What's more, this time, I can make arrangements in advance, which gives me a very favorable advantage!
Jiang Xue also had a selfish motive, which was to see if they had made any progress after she had trained them for so long.
Including her, there were only four women who came out this time, and the other eighteen were all men.
In order to paralyze the enemy, they built a bonfire in an open space by the stream. Next to the bonfire, they placed four or five backpacks to paralyze the enemy.
Not only that, they also roasted food by the campfire.
Now that we are ready, it depends on whether the people of the Eagle Tribe will be fooled.
Time passed slowly and it got darker. After they had eaten, they went to rest separately.
The three women chattered for half the night before they each climbed up a large tree. The other tribesmen either lay or sat beside the fire, or sat under the tree and leaned against it to fall asleep.
The woods at night are always so quiet, and the woods in late autumn are even more lonely and quiet.
