Could it be that the system wants him to be the savior? He thought with a smile.
This really praises him too much. In the modern world, he is just an ordinary college student who is about to enter the society. His biggest ideal in life is to find a stable job where he can live a life where he can see his retirement at a glance.
He looked up at Xuan beside him, Xia opposite him, and the tribesmen busy in front of the stalls. He thought of Qiu Ye who still didn't know where to exchange things, and the people in the tribe who were waiting for them to return.
He suddenly understood why the system did not choose the ambitious person who wanted to dominate the world, but chose a Buddhist and ordinary person like him to come here.
He didn't go out again in the afternoon, but sat in the corner.
Xuan stayed with him for a while, then went out to help Xia and the others, only looking back at him from time to time.
Meng Yuqing forced a smile to Xuan and told him not to worry about him, but what he didn't know was that his smile was uglier than crying.
As night fell, everyone who had gone out came back. Xuan came and sat next to him again, without saying a word, just quietly accompanying him.
After eating, Meng Yuqing gently pulled Xuan's hand.
"What's wrong?" Xuan asked immediately.
"Can we go out alone for a while? I have something I want to talk to you about alone." Meng Yuqing said in a low voice.
Xuan looked up and looked around, then pulled him up and said, "Let's go, just don't go too far."
Meng Yuqing followed Xuan out of the wooden shed. Seeing this, Qiu Ye was about to come up and ask, but was stopped by Xia.
The two walked along the street, and Xuan stopped only after he brought him to a deserted corner.
"What do you want to tell me?" Xuan moved closer to him, his voice cautious.
Meng Yuqing pursed her lips and looked at Xuan, "I need people, one hundred and thirty-one people."
Xuan looked at Meng Yuqing with some surprise. He thought Meng Yuqing would tell him about the northern tribes.
But he quickly replied, "Can you tell me what to do? I can find a reason to tell my father."
Meng Yuqing shook his head. "I don't want people from the tribe." He looked at Xuan with a serious look. "Besides Bo and the others, I need 131 more people to join our tribe."
After he finished speaking, he looked at Xuan with some trepidation. He knew that his request must be very confusing to Xuan, but he had no choice. He couldn't let the system upgrade get stuck at this step.
After a long while, Xuancai said, "We will leave the market early and visit many small tribes. Maybe there will be a chance."
He looked at Meng Yuqing with a serious expression, "But Yuqing, just like Bo and the others, we won't accept them right away. We need to observe the candidates."
"I know. I'm just telling you what I need now. If it's a messy person, I won't want him even if he offers himself to me." Meng Yuqing nodded and felt slightly relieved. He agreed with Xuan's idea, and he was also glad that Xuan, like him, had the idea of expanding the tribe.
"Well, so don't worry anymore, okay? We just need to do everything we want to do now. If those things really happen, then we will be ready to face them together." Xuan gently rubbed Meng Yuqing's head to comfort him.
Meng Yuqing closed his eyes, feeling the touch on his head, and his anxiety gradually subsided.
Xuan is right. Instead of thinking too much and scaring yourself, it is better to do what you should do now.
As long as you have tried your best, you will accept the final result no matter what it is.
When they returned to the wooden shed, the people of the Qingshan tribe were already ready to rest. After saying good night to each other, Meng Yuqing returned to lie down next to Qiu Ye.
The next morning, Meng Yuqing took Xuan and the others out. He did not go to the human trafficking area, but changed direction and went to other places.
Perhaps to compensate for yesterday's losses, Meng Yuqing discovered one of the main targets of this trip, a plant called the stalk-leaf tree in this world.
The information encyclopedia states that the fiber of this plant is very fine and soft, and it is the first choice of plant in the weaving method given by the system.
He pulled Xuan to the front of the stall and pointed at the plants on the hides, "What are you going to exchange these plants for?"
He was pointing not only at the sedge-leaved trees, but also at many other miscellaneous plants in order to conceal his real target.
"You want all these plants?" The orc in front of the stall looked at Meng Yuqing in disbelief.
He took these things to the three major tribes to exchange for salt, but the three major tribes had never seen them before, so they refused to accept them. They only accepted some edible plants and fruits that everyone knew about.
Now someone came to him to exchange these things, and was ready to exchange them all, which made him doubt whether these things had any other uses, so he was a little hesitant.
Seeing what the orc was thinking, Meng Yuqing didn't bother to talk too much and said directly, "Do you want to change or not? If not, I'll leave."
After saying this, he pretended to leave.
The orc immediately became anxious when he saw this. "Hey! Don't go. I want to change it. I want to change it for salt. Only salt."
Meng Yuqing stopped and raised his chin towards Xuan. Xuan immediately took off the salt bag from his body and said, "Two handfuls of salt, do you want to exchange?"
The orc looked at the bag of salt in Xuan's hand with a look of eagerness. His expression was a little conflicted. "I have so many kinds of plants. Two handfuls of salt is a little too little. There might be something useful in it."
Hearing his words, Meng Yuqing immediately grabbed Xuan and said, "Let's go. We're just curious about these plants. We can change stalls and get other plants."
