Chapter 44 Extraterrestrial Visitors
Upon hearing this, Gu Xinyan quickly stepped forward and replied, "Yes, we are indeed here to do business, but there is another matter we would like to inquire about with Chief Ke!"
From what you just said, could it be that there were other extraterrestrial visitors before us?
"There is one, but I've never seen it. I've heard my grandfather tell me a legend about it since I can remember."
That was during my great-great-grandfather's generation, when an extraterrestrial visitor also came. It was said that this person came from a distant star and possessed a very magical ability: the ability to control celestial fire.
Originally, we all ate raw meat, but under his tutelage, we also learned how to control celestial fire and how to use it to cook food.
He also taught us skills we'd never seen before: how to store food, how to make weapons, and some edible food.
Unfortunately, that visitor from outer space only stayed with us for one rainy season before leaving.
Since then, many rainy seasons have passed, and no visitors from outer space have appeared again until your arrival! Ke Zhen looked at the group and slowly spoke.
After all, this legend is not a secret on their continent; almost everyone knows it. But nowadays, children don't really believe in this legend anymore.
From the moment he met these people today, he was certain that their backgrounds were anything but simple.
The clothes they wore were more beautiful than those of any large tribe.
Moreover, the large tribe had been instructed by that extraterrestrial visitor to make clothes using hemp, but the colors were very limited, a dull gray.
There are very few people dressed so brightly, not to mention they are all wearing animal skin skirts.
Hearing Ke Zhen's words, Gu Xinyan and the other two were quite surprised. They thought that this visitor from outer space must have traveled from somewhere!
Mastering Heavenly Fire? That must be fire. If someone can control flames, they're not from their world. They must be from the cultivation world or some other other world!
This means that the person must be quite capable, as they were even able to tear open space to go back!
However, the three of them didn't think too much about it. After all, there had been such an extraterrestrial visitor before, so their arrival should be more acceptable to the people here!
"I see! Our arrival this time was also by chance. We just happened to land near your tribe, so we thought we'd take this opportunity to do some business with you. I wonder if Chief Gu would be interested in doing the same?" Gu Xinyan asked with a smile.
Upon hearing this, a glint of light flashed in Ko Chen's eyes. Doing business? It must be like their market, where they trade with each other! That sounds great!
During this period, their tribe had stored up a lot of things, which they originally planned to bring to the main city's market to exchange for goods.
But now it's not necessary. The things at the market are all the same, nothing particularly novel. But these people are different; they come from beyond the heavens.
The tribe may be able to obtain some unexpected good things from them, which may also allow the tribe to safely get through this cold season.
Thinking this, he spoke up somewhat eagerly, "Gentlemen, what are you selling? May we take a look?"
Gu Xinyan nodded upon hearing this. After all, in business, customers need to see the products; otherwise, it's impossible to explain clearly just by talking. She then replied:
“Sure, we just happened to see an open space next to your treehouse on our way here. I’ll set up my shop here first. All the goods are displayed in the shop. You can exchange them for whatever you want.”
As Gu Xinyan spoke, she took the lead and walked outside. Lu Yunting and the other man followed closely behind. Seeing this, Ke Zhen also quickly pulled his son along to follow.
Stepping out of the treehouse, they saw the area outside the tribe becoming lively. Many people were busy with their tasks while looking in their direction, their curiosity and inquiry impossible to conceal.
Gu Xinyan was already used to these looks. After all, their arrival was not an ordinary event, and it was normal for people to be curious.
She didn't pay much attention to it, but after leaving the treehouse, she turned to the right, where she had noticed them when they came over.
It was a very large altar, with one side against the mountain and the other side against the houses of the tribe.
At the center of the altar stood a very large stone statue. Gu Xinyan didn't know what the statue depicted, but she inexplicably felt that the statue looked very majestic.
As Gu Xinyan walked, she looked around the altar. The place she had originally chosen was next to Chief Ke's house. It was close to the altar, but there was a large open space there, which was just the right location for a shop.
"Sir, is this the place you're talking about? Putting that... shop there? How are we supposed to put it? I didn't see you bring anything with you."
Ko Chen looked at the three of them with some confusion. Seeing that they were all empty-handed, he wondered, "And what is that shop?"
Hearing this, Gu Xinyan just smiled and didn't answer. After all, explaining it to him wouldn't make sense, so it was better to let him see for himself.
Thinking this, he touched the token with his consciousness, activated it, and gave it a command. In an instant, everyone saw a golden light envelop the area in front of them.
This scene astonished the tribespeople who were busy working nearby. They didn't even realize they had dropped what they were holding, and stared blankly in the direction of the golden light.
The next second, they all knelt down in a rush, muttering incantations. If you listened carefully, they were saying, "May the Beast God protect us!"
As the golden light disappeared, a strangely styled two-story building appeared before everyone. Apart from Gu Xinyan and her two companions, everyone else present looked astonished.
"What is this house made of? It's so beautiful! We can even see inside! Father, the color of this house is so beautiful!"
Kolo, who had been silently following behind without saying a word, stared wide-eyed in amazement at the sudden appearance of the two-story building.
As he spoke, his eyes involuntarily drifted toward his own treehouse, which he had initially thought was quite nice.
Compared to many small tribes, it's unparalleled, but compared to the small building next to it, it's like heaven and earth!
This is so beautiful! And what is that? How can you see inside so clearly?
