Chapter 180: Despair: The men have all run away, and the women are working
After dealing with the invading people from the Tengshe tribe, it took a few more days to return.
It was quiet around the tribe, and there was no one on guard outside the tribe.
"We're back from the war, why is there no one to greet us?" Wolf Nine asked puzzledly.
In the past, when they came back from hunting, the little girl Maojin or the cubs would have started shouting at the top of their lungs.
Shi Yuan continued to move forward with doubts.
"What a smell! It smells so good!"
When they were about to enter the tribe, the high priests walking in front smelled a very fragrant scent.
Shi Yuan and the others are not unfamiliar with this taste... Has the tribe started smoking bacon again?
After returning to the tribe, Shi Yuan understood why there was no one on duty outside the tribe and no children reporting.
There are several more smokehouses in the activity square, and children stand in front of the smokehouses, adding firewood from time to time.
In the past, when it was time to smoke meat, the happiest people were the children.
Now, there was no smile on their faces, they just stared at the bacon mechanically.
There were several large stone pots bubbling with oil, and Chu Ange, with her big belly, was directing the young females to make beef jerky.
Several drying poles were set up with bamboo poles in the originally empty activity square, on which were hung densely packed beef jerky and bacon.
Potatoes and sweet potatoes that had not been stored in time were piled randomly on the ground.
The ground is full of food, what a pleasant scene.
But the tribe was dead silent, without any sign of joy from the harvest.
The tribe is full of females and children!
What about the warriors and old orcs he left behind to guard the tribe?
A child was the first to discover Shiyuan and his group who had already walked into the tribal gate.
"The warriors are back!"
In an instant, the tribe was full of vitality. The tired females had light in their eyes, and some even sat down to rest.
When Tutuer saw Langjiu appear at the entrance of the tribe, she rushed over and jumped into Langjiu's arms, and burst into tears: "Why did you come back just now?"
When the rabbit is not pregnant, she does twice or even three times the work of a pregnant female.
Before I met Lang Jiu, I could endure any hardship or fatigue.
I was extremely tired. When I saw Lang Jiu, I couldn't hold it anymore.
"What's going on?" Wolf Nine stepped forward and caught his little rabbit and asked.
"I did all your work. I'm so awesome." said Rabbit.
Lang Jiu understood that this was because he was tired.
"My Rabbit is so awesome. I'm back and I won't let you work anymore." Lang Jiu kissed Rabbit's hands lovingly.
"Xiao Yuan, you are finally back." The priest walked over tremblingly, leaning on a crutch.
The priest was older, with a hunched back and a wrinkled face full of fatigue.
What happened in the tribe? Shi Yuan had the illusion that they had been away for a year instead of a month.
Shi Yuan quickly supported the priest and said, "Priest, why are you all so tired?"
The priest sat down on the ground and waved his hand, saying, "I want to retire. I quit."
"This...where are the warriors I left behind? And where did the old orcs go?" Shi Yuan asked.
The soldiers were cutting grass and feeding cattle and sheep day and night. The potatoes and sweet potatoes in the fields also had to be harvested, and then new ones had to be planted.
Many single males voluntarily stay to guard the tribe because the females are all in the tribe. They think that they will have more opportunities to come into contact with females and the competition pressure will be much less.
However, at this moment, they were regretting it so much!
There is endless work to be done in the fields! There is no way to finish it!
Sometimes when I’m busy I don’t even have time to eat, so how can I have time to fall in love?
A guy who previously only had two abdominal muscles no matter how much he trained, now has six pack abdominal muscles... This is quite attractive to females.
It is always the people who suffer in war. Shi Yuan looked at the "miserable situation" in the tribe and hoped that if possible, there would never be another war in the White Wolf Tribe.
The returning warriors immediately took over the work of the females, and the male fathers also replaced their own children and let them go out and play.
The priest's horses and cattle returned, and he felt that he was fit again, and immediately began to arrange the work.
"You guys, move the potatoes and sweet potatoes on the ground to the storage cave first."
"We also need to send people to plant the second wave of wheat on the back hill."
"Oh, yes, there are also peppers. Go get a few more people to collect the red peppers..."
…
After the priest finished speaking, his eyes fixed on the people from the Dragon Temple.
"Are these people here to help with the work?" the priest asked Shi Yuan.
Shi Yuan said: "Priest, they are from the Dragon Temple and have now joined our White Wolf Tribe."
"Those are the ones who come to work...Wolf Forest, take them to help cut grass for the cattle. Many of our giant-horned cattle and giant-tailed Han sheep have starved to death." said the priest.
After hearing what the priest said, the warriors finally understood why the tribe suddenly smoked so much bacon and made so much beef jerky.
The high priests of the Dragon Temple were in disbelief when they heard that this old man dared to assign them work.
"We are the high priests of the Dragon Temple. We don't work."
The priests of the Dragon Temple do not work. Their work is done by the common people or people from other tribes.
They only need to impart various experiences to them and then go to various tribes to convey the blessings of the Dragon God.
The rest of the time is spent on cultivation. Ordinary priests want to become high priests, and high priests want to become beast kings.
"Are you sure you don't want to work?" asked the priest.
"Of course." The high priests held their heads high, always feeling that they were superior to others.
"Okay then." The priest said nothing else. He still had a lot of things to do and had no time to persuade them here.
I hope you guys can still be so tough when the meal starts.
Shi Yuan took away more than 300 people, and more than 170 people came from the Dragon God Temple. So when they returned to the White Wolf Tribe, there were about 500 more people.
Except for the 160 people from the Dragon God Temple, everyone else went to help with the work...including Xiong Heng and his ten subordinates who had gone back before and followed him back.
He didn't want to tell the high priest and the others that if they joined the tribe, they had to work in order to have food to eat.
His subordinates must also endure the same hardships that he once endured.
If they didn't go to help, one hundred and sixty people standing in the activity square would be a bit conspicuous.
There was another person who was even more conspicuous than them... She was lying on a beautifully made recliner with a big belly, watching others work and giving instructions from time to time.
What shocked the high priests was that the females in this tribe were all wearing clothes that were obviously of very good quality!
Many times better than the clothes they wear.
Apart from the head of the Dragon Temple, the high priest was the best dressed. Even the heir to the head, Xiong Heng, was not dressed as well as them.
But what did they see! The females in this tribe actually wear clothes of much better quality than theirs!
Why aren’t Shi Yuan and the others wearing any clothes?
Because they were going to fight, in order to be able to change into animal form and fight at any time, they just wrapped themselves in an animal skin skirt.
Many people who are used to wearing clothes can’t find their old fur skirts. The fur skirts they borrowed from others are not only ill-fitting but also tattered and worn out.
This also led to the high priests' illusion that the White Wolf Tribe was very poor at first glance.
