"etc!!"
Before Chief Jie led his men out to fight, Lin Xiaoman stopped them and performed a divination on the chief, and the result was "empty".
Uh, nothing happened?
Not necessarily. Maybe it’s because the clan leader is so powerful that he’s fine.
Lin Xiaoman chose three ordinary tribesmen for divination, and the results were all empty. Now, she was completely relieved and everything was fine.
Before Lin Xiaoman could tell him the result of the divination, a patrol soldier ran in from outside and shouted, "Chief, a group of people from other tribes broke in!"
Chief Jie asked, "How many of them are there?"
"It looks like there are more than a hundred!"
Originally, people in the tribe could only count to ten, and most of them gave up when it came to numbers above ten. With Lin Xiaoman's strong promotion of education, literacy was still not a reality, but almost everyone could count to 100.
"More than a hundred? Come and rob! Come on, warriors of my tribe, follow me and let them see how powerful our Hu tribe is!!" Chief Jie shouted in a voice like a bell.
Lin Xiaoman inexplicably felt that Chief Jie was eager for this opportunity to show his strength and was eager to fight!
Maybe it's because he was upgraded to a first-level warrior, and he felt a little proud.
Led by Chief Jie, the tribe members left the cave.
Unlike the nervousness of others, Lin Xiaoman was very calm knowing that everything was fine. Then about two hours later, the first-level warrior Dashan came back with a small group of ordinary warriors.
The Dashan warriors reported the situation to Lin Xiaoman.
The people who broke into their territory were not here to rob, but the survivors of the Cliff Tribe.
The Ya Tribe is a nearby tribe with a larger population than theirs, about five hundred, well, that's 500. Although the Ya Tribe has more people, they have no warriors, so the Ya Tribe and their Hu Tribe have always kept to themselves.
Just half a month ago, the Yai Tribe was attacked by a more powerful tribe. The Rui Tribe attacked the Yai Tribe, and the Yai Tribe was defeated. Many warriors died, and even the tribe leader was killed.
The Rui tribe killed many warriors of the Ya tribe, occupied the territory of the Ya tribe, seized many young and fertile women, and robbed their food reserves.
The survivors of the Cliff Tribe who managed to escape had no choice but to ask for help from other tribes with a slim hope, so the Cliff Tribe came to seek help.
If it were in the past, Chief Jie would definitely drive them away without hesitation. After all, in the cold season, his own people couldn't even get enough to eat, so how could they possibly help others?
But now, thanks to Lin Xiaoman, the food reserves of the Hu tribe are particularly abundant this year, and they can feed more than 100 people.
Of course, it is impossible to support people from other tribes for free. Chief Jie means that if anyone is willing to submit to their Hu tribe, they are willing to accept them.
This is what Chief Jie thought. The specific decision should be made by Lin Xiaoman, the tribe’s highest spiritual leader, and the Dashan warriors came to ask for her opinion.
"Take me to see it!"
After understanding the whole story, Lin Xiaoman decided to go and see for himself.
It is said that people are the primary productive force. In this era, the more people the better, but if they are all old, weak, sick or disabled, it will be difficult to deal with.
The mountain warrior was a tall and strong man who was at least 1.9 meters tall. As a little kid who was only 1.2 meters tall, Lin Xiaoman sat directly on his shoulders and was carried by him.
Shoes had not yet been invented, and the sore feeling of stepping on the snow... As a delicate and weak witch, she had to protect herself.
…
Afeng is the young chief of the Ya tribe. At this time, he and all the remaining members of the Ya tribe gathered together, shivering in the snow due to cold and hunger. They had left the tribe for many days, and the only food they had along the way had long been eaten up. Relying on gnawing on tree bark and drinking snow water, less than half of the people survived to get here.
Before the Hu tribe, they had also been to the Ling tribe, but the Ling tribe was only willing to accept strong men who could hunt and healthy women who could give birth. Only a very small number of people left the tribe and joined the Ling tribe.
They could no longer hold on to the next tribe, and the Hu tribe was their only hope.
But it was the cold season now, and with so many of them, the Hu tribe probably wouldn't accept them, right? Holding onto a glimmer of hope, Afeng pleaded with Chief Jie to take them in.
Chief Jie did not reject them at the first moment, which gave Afeng more hope. But he was puzzled. Why couldn't Jie, as the chief of the tribe, make the decision?
Who else in the tribe is higher than the patriarch?
Could it be the legendary witch? !
On one side was the hope of survival, and on the other side was doubt. As the people of the Yai Tribe were eagerly waiting, several warriors of the Hu Tribe came back. Among them, the warrior who looked the tallest and strongest had a tiny person sitting on his body.
Although he is very small and looks like a child, the three layers of fur on his body, plus the large and gorgeous fur on the outermost layer, make it clear at a glance that this child is of noble status.
Could it really be a witch?
Afeng became excited, Wu, it’s Wu!
The Rui tribe that attacked them had a population only slightly larger than theirs, but it was said that a witch had appeared in the Rui tribe a few years ago. This time, their Ya tribe was beaten without any chance to fight back, all because the Rui tribe had many warriors and its combat effectiveness had been greatly improved.
A tribe with a witch means it can gain power and become stronger.
"This is our tribe's Master Green Witch!"
When the mountain warriors carried Lin Xiaoman here, the Jie tribe leader introduced them in a loud voice.
Afeng, who was originally reluctant to submit to another tribe, immediately led everyone to kneel down after confirming his guess about the witch.
"I am Afeng, the former young chief of the Yai Tribe. I am honored to meet you, Master Qingwu. We sincerely beg you to save us."
A Feng's attitude was very sincere and humble. He knew very well that when asking for help, one should have the attitude of asking for help. Their life and death depended entirely on the words of this green witch.
"Get up."
Lin Xiaoman, with his mysterious personality, spoke in a condescending tone.
"Please be merciful and save us!"
Without standing up, Afeng took the lead in kneeling.
Without saying a word, Lin Xiaoman pondered for a moment and then looked around. Most of the people here had a lot of beards and hair, so their appearance could not be seen clearly. However, based on their body shape, he could roughly judge their age and fighting ability.
After taking a few glances at the group of people kneeling in the snow, Lin Xiaoman had an idea.
There were about 120 people, including about 50 half-grown children, 10 smaller children, and the remaining half, about 30 young men, 20 young women, and less than 10 elderly people.
Although they all look sickly and thin at the moment, the quality is generally good.
Especially those teenagers, if they are kept for a few days they are labor force, if they are kept for a few years they are combat force!
