The language of primitive people is very different from Chinese, so Li Qing's words were a bit awkward, but Yun still understood what he meant. Yun sighed and was about to say something when Li Qing said gently, "Don't worry, at least for now, we won't go to war with the Black Wind Tribe, because..."
Li Qing ultimately did not reveal the reason. The Red Flower Tribe already had a small population, and after the hunting team was attacked and lost most of its members, the tribe was severely weakened. They lacked people, food, water, and everything else!
He knew this, Dian knew this, and Jiewu knew this too. That's why, when they heard the news, they simply kept this grudge in mind instead of flying into a rage and shouting that they would immediately lead people to wipe out the Black Wind Tribe.
If the Red Flower Tribe doesn't first find a way to improve what they lack before rashly starting a war, Li Qing can't think of any reason why the Black Wind Tribe would win unless the entire tribe surrenders.
Just as I was thinking of finding a reason to comfort Yun, Yun suddenly whispered, "I understand... I just..."
Yun suddenly laughed and said, "If that day ever comes, I will fight alongside them for the tribe."
Li Qing opened his mouth as if to say something, but in the end he waved his hand and said, "I'm going to find Cang first."
...
After walking for a few minutes, Li Qing arrived at a flat area where Cang was. When Li Qing arrived, Cang was placing a huge plant root and some green leaves on a stone slab and grinding them with a stone tool similar to a mortar. Unlike the other people in the tribe, who were very strong, he looked very thin, just like a city dweller in modern life.
He saw Li Qing approaching and nodded to him: "Mai Zi, are you injured? How did the hunt go?"
Li Qing nodded, sat down facing Cang, and briefly recounted the events to Cang.
As Cang listened to Li Qing's description, he put down what he was doing, selected some more herbs, and ground them into powder. After Li Qing finished speaking, Cang spread the prepared paste evenly on his palm. "Lie down. It might hurt a little later, so you have to bear with it."
The herbs combined to give off a medicinal and earthy aroma. Knowing that Cang's medical skills were more than enough to treat his arrow wound, Li Qing obediently lay down on the spot and said, "Okay."
Cang didn't speak, but pressed the hand covered in herbs firmly onto the wound on Li Qing's back.
hiss……
Even though she was somewhat prepared, Li Qing still gasped in shock.
It hurts, it hurts so much!
Li Qing had never experienced such pain before. He even felt that his back no longer belonged to him. During the most painful seconds, Li Qing felt that he was about to faint again, and he could only rely on his willpower to continue.
This painful process lasted for about several tens of seconds. The pain in his back finally turned into a slight coolness. And miraculously, the wounds that had just caused Li Qing excruciating pain seemed to have been completely healed, and he could no longer feel their presence.
"It's amazing! Even modern medicine can't do this," Li Qing thought to himself, marveling at the power of nature.
After doing all this, Cang said calmly, "Alright, now let's just wait for the wound to heal slowly."
Li Qing thanked Cang gratefully. He respected Cang very much. In his memory, whenever the shaman in the tribe grew old, they would find a successor. After finding a successor, they would voluntarily step down from the position of shaman, giving the person all the power and authority of the shaman, and the person would play the role of a "doctor" in the tribe. Cang was naturally the previous shaman who had stepped down. The reason why his medical skills and knowledge were so superb was due to the knowledge he had learned when he was still a shaman.
Cang did not respond to Li Qing. He continued to lower his head and grind his herbs: "What did the chieftain and the shaman say about this?"
Li Qing did not hide anything from this former shaman, and relayed their words to Cang.
"Um."
Cang continued grinding the herbs: "I understand."
Seeing that Cang was not very talkative, Li Qing stopped bothering him, said goodbye, and turned to leave.
During the time that Li Qing went to find Cang and Cang treated him, the news of the hunting team being attacked by the Black Wind Tribe was officially spread throughout the tribe by Li and others. At that time, the warriors in the tribe were full of fighting spirit, and their angry shouts broke through the sky. They wished they could cut off the heads of the Black Wind Tribe members in front of them and skin them alive!
To Li Qing's great relief, Jie Wu and Dian Du stepped forward to take charge of the situation, telling them that for the Red Flower Tribe to seek revenge against the Black Wind Tribe was tantamount to throwing an egg against a rock. They should pack up, go to Moonstone, bring back the remains of the warriors, and slowly develop their strength before launching an attack. This saved Li Qing the trouble of arguing with the tribesmen and allowed him to rest well before setting off.
"The chief said we should 'bury' Yong and the others first. I've heard that this is a way of burying the dead in the ground. Have you ever heard of this method?"
“We’ve never heard of this before, and we never even considered ‘burial’ in the first place. Whose idea was this? Was it the shaman?”
"I don't know, the chief didn't tell us. But since the chief said so, let's do it."
Li Qing walked through the tribe. Opinions on the "burial" method were mixed. Some thought it was a waste of time and that they should immediately go and wipe out the Black Wind Tribe to avenge the hunting team. Others thought it was a very good method and worth trying. However, the overall atmosphere in the tribe was very good and was generally full of fighting spirit.
