Chapter 217 The Fire Will Not Go Out 22



There are all kinds of tribes here.

Some of these tribes are willing to show their fire to others, while others are not.

If Meng Changjin is willing, he can watch it openly and for a longer period of time.

Even if he was unwilling, Meng Changjin would still take a few glances at him if he was within the range of his spiritual sense.

What impressed Meng Changjin most was a tribe hunting in the sea.

The name of this tribe is Yu. Their fire is of the same texture as water, but in the shape of a fish tail. One of the functions of the fire is to transform the legs of the people in the Yu tribe into fish tails, giving them the characteristics of mermaids, so that they can breathe and swim freely in the water.

This tribe was very generous. Not only did they allow Meng Changjin to observe their fire up close, they also allowed her to watch the pre-hunting ceremony.

Of course, Meng Changjin thought that it might be because she gave away a lot of land prey, so the people of the fishing tribe were so generous.

Meng Changjin didn't dare to say that he had traveled all over this primitive world, but he should have traveled half of it... right?

Anyway, if calculated based on the winter season, Meng Changjin has been walking for six years.

She knew that there were still many places in this world that she had not visited, but after leaving the Yan tribe and walking for so long, Meng Changjin now seemed to understand what the great witch said.

No matter how far she goes, the Yan tribe is her root.

Of course, this is not Meng Changjin's root, but it is Man Qing's root.

Meng Changjin did not go any further. She started to return to where she came from.

It took six years to leave and one year to return.

Although Meng Changjin walked and stopped frequently during the six years he was walking, and might stay in one place for a few days, there was nothing wrong with the distance he walked being shortened several times if he walked back in a straight line.

But this is a primitive world and there is no means of transportation, so Meng Changjin can only measure the distance with his legs.

In fact, Meng Changjin also has a means of transportation. She has a motorcycle. But having a means of transportation is useless without a road.

Some places were relatively flat, and Meng Changjin was able to drive thanks to his superb driving skills.

But the key to the problem is that Meng Changjin often has to travel through forests, which are full of rugged rocks and various vines and trees. No matter how superb his driving skills are, Meng Changjin cannot drive through them.

It took Meng Changjin a year to return to the Yan tribe, walking and driving when he encountered flat roads.

When he returned to the Yan tribe, Meng Changjin discovered that a major change had taken place in the Yan tribe.

First of all, the area of ​​farmland has become larger. Secondly, there are many more wooden houses, but the styles are slightly different from those built by Meng Changjin when he was there.

The patrol team faces that Meng Changjin was familiar with could no longer be found in the current patrol team.

When Meng Changjin arrived at the Yan tribe carrying an adult striped beast, he was discovered by the sharp-eyed patrol team members.

After the discovery, Meng Changjin was naturally stopped outside and not allowed to enter.

They didn't let Meng Changjin in, but Meng Changjin didn't get angry.

They are also guarding the safety of the Yan tribe. Meng Changjin is not angry, but rather relieved.

After he politely explained that he was from the Yan tribe and could find three leaders and the great witch to testify, the people on the patrol team began to believe it.

If she was not from the Yan tribe, how could she dare to ask the three chiefs and the great witch to testify for her?

However, this kind of thing cannot be based solely on Meng Changjin's one-sided statement. In the hunting team, the man who was obviously the captain whispered a few words to the person behind him, and then that person left the team and ran towards the interior of the Yan tribe.

Meng Changjin only needed to think for a moment to guess that this must be to find someone to confirm her identity.

Sure enough, after that person left the team, the team leader explained a few words to Meng Changjin with a good attitude.

Meng Changjin had no idea whether the other party's good attitude was because she might be a member of the Yan tribe or because she was carrying an adult striped beast.

Meng Changjin was not tired carrying the striped beast, but it felt a bit foolish to keep carrying it here and waiting, so he decided to put it down.

The adult striped beast that Meng Changjin was carrying was quite heavy. When he put it down with a thud, the patrol members standing nearby could feel the ground shake.

A patrol team, more than a dozen people, swallowed their saliva in unison.

They didn't know whether Meng Changjin hunted this striped beast alone or with help, but from the wounds on the beast's body, it could be seen that the beast was killed by someone with one blow. The weapon was inserted into the beast's eye. Apart from the wound on the eye, there were no other wounds.

Anyway, no matter what, the fact that Meng Changjin could carry an adult striped beast so easily made everyone on the patrol respect her as a ruthless person.

Not long after, Meng Changjin saw the man who had left the team leading someone towards this side.

The people on patrol also saw it and said a few words.

Meng Changjin listened and it seemed that what was said was that the person who came was a great witch.

Meng Changjin: ...? Are you kidding me? Is this a great witch?

The body shapes don't match, right?! While Meng Changjin was puzzled, the people who followed the person who left the team saw Meng Changjin from a distance.

When they got closer, the man greeted them loudly: "You are finally back. We are one of us. Don't stop us."

The first half of this person's sentence was addressed to Meng Changjin, and the second half was addressed to everyone in the hunting team.

Meng Changjin was a little confused when he saw that the other party looked familiar.

After waiting for a while, he suddenly thought of something: "You are... Zhuo?"

"It's me." He smiled and nodded, confirming Meng Changjin's words.

Meng Changjin raised his eyebrows. It was definitely an accident, but after thinking about it, he felt that this was normal.

"I didn't expect that you have become a great wizard." The people in the hunting team had already made way. Meng Changjin said with emotion as he picked up the striped beast.

"Yes, after the third winter after you left, I accepted the inheritance of the Great Witch..." Zhuo talked about some major events after Meng Changjin left. After that, the two of them were almost at the location of Meng Changjin's wooden house.

Meng Changjin's wooden house still looked familiar, but it seemed a little old due to wind and sun.

"Someone cleans this place every once in a while. It's very clean and there's no damage anywhere." Zhuo said.

"Thank you." Meng Changjin thanked him and threw the striped beast onto the flat ground outside the wooden house.

"Don't deal with the striped beast for now. The elders are thinking of you. Come with me to meet the elders first." Zhuo said, as if he was going to lead the way.

"Elder?" Meng Changjin was puzzled. Did the Yan tribe still have elders? "It was the former Great Shaman. After the Great Shaman retired, he became the elder of the tribe." Zhuo explained.

Meng Changjin understood.

Hearing that it was the former great witch, Meng Changjin had no other questions.

Following Zhuo to the wooden house of the former great witch and current elder, Meng Changjin saw the old lady who had aged a lot.

Except for the old lady, two of the three leaders were present.

The other one, Zhuo mentioned it on the way, was leading a team out hunting.

Meng Changjin was in a good mood when he saw the old lady.

The old lady and the two leaders were also very happy to see Meng Changjin return safely.

Seven winters have passed since Meng Changjin went out.

After everyone was worried at first, they thought that no news was the best news.

But it is also inevitable that there will be some pessimism.

Now that everyone sees Meng Changjin return safely, they are naturally very happy.

"It's good that you're back, it's good that you're back." The old lady patted Meng Changjin's shoulder, with a kind smile on her face, and said with relief.

Meng Changjin smiled and said, "You said that the Yan tribe is my roots, and fallen leaves must return to their roots, so I came back."

The first day Meng Changjin returned to the Yan tribe, he invited everyone to eat striped beast meat.

There are more people in the Yan tribe now, especially the boys around seven or eight years old, there are quite a lot of them.

But the striped beast that Meng Changjin brought back was also big, enough for everyone to eat.

Other people from the Yan tribe also came to help with the grilling and stewing of meat. The entire Yan tribe was particularly lively today.

Among the people who helped were the two female hunting team members who were responsible for "protecting" Meng Changjin when she went out hunting for the first time after coming to this world.

The two were quite moved when they saw the striped beast, and they couldn't help but talk about Meng Changjin's first hunting trip.

Meng Changjin heard it and joined in the conversation, chatting quite enthusiastically.

After a day of excitement, Meng Changjin returned to the Yan tribe and his life returned to normal.

Except when he goes out hunting, Meng Changjin is completely in a state of retirement.

In fact, she is indeed taking care of herself in her old age.

The life of retirement is peaceful and comfortable.

Meng Changjin made a recliner for himself. Every morning when the sun was not so strong, he would lie on the recliner to bask in the sun. It was so comfortable.

But the pleasant time is short. Even if the time is actually very long, looking back, it is still extremely short.

When leaving the mission world, Meng Changjin didn't know whether he should feel relieved or sad that there would never be such an opportunity again.

When her soul no longer had that light feeling, Meng Changjin opened her eyes.

When I opened my eyes, all I saw was a mud wall.

Meng Changjin was quite familiar with this scene, because he had returned here several times after completing the mission and leaving the mission world.

But at that time she couldn't move at all and was forced to taste the bitter medicine.

Now Meng Changjin can feel that she can control this body with complete ease.

But there is a problem -

This body feels a little weak and has no strength.

This is probably because he has been in a coma for a long time. His body's consumption has been reduced to the lowest level, and his physical condition is half-wasted. It is normal to have no strength.

Meng Changjin had no intention of torturing himself, so he was not prepared to sit up with any amazing willpower.

Lying there, he took out a spirit stone from the spirit plant space, held it in his hand, and began to slowly absorb the spiritual power.

As soon as the spiritual power entered the body, it began to quickly repair the muscles that had atrophied due to lying down for a long time.

The muscle cells were quickly repaired by spiritual power, and slowly, Meng Changjin could clearly feel that the lost strength was slowly returning.

Just as Meng Changjin was repairing his body, the door of the mud and thatched house was pushed open with a creak.

A middle-aged woman came in carrying a large bowl with thick meat.

Meng Changjin opened his eyes and looked over there.

Upon seeing this, the middle-aged woman who had just pushed the door open suddenly widened her eyes, and the bowl in her hand also made close contact with the ground because of her shaking hand.

As expected, it shattered.

"Xiao, Xiaojin, you're awake, that's great..." The middle-aged woman was a little uncertain at first, but when she looked carefully, she saw that Meng Changjin was still looking at her with his eyes open, and she suddenly didn't know whether to laugh or cry.

But at this moment, she didn't need to control her expression at all, because before she finished her sentence, although the middle-aged woman had a smile on her face, tears fell from her eyes at the same time.

As for the bowl that fell to the ground and broke, she didn't care about it at all.

Meng Changjin was also confused, so she opened her eyes and took a look. Then, what happened next made Meng Changjin completely at a loss.

When I reacted, the middle-aged woman had already thrown herself to the bed, crying non-stop, and it looked like her tears would not stop no matter how hard she tried.

Meng Changjin had no idea what to do. He didn't dare to move or blink. He just watched the woman crying beside the bed.

So, after a while, Meng Changjin looked at the group of people surrounding the bed and became even more confused.

The crying of the middle-aged woman attracted the attention of others, and then so many people came.

Meng Changjin took a quick look and found that it was everyone in this family that she had seen with her spiritual sense before.

The man with a sallow complexion and a bitter look should be the original body's father. The other old lady with a cane and gray hair is the original body's grandmother.

The two young men were the two elder brothers of the original body.

There was also a young woman holding a child, who was the original body's sister-in-law.

At this moment, seven pairs of eyes were staring at Meng Changjin, some of them were ignorant.

Some were pleased, some were excited, and some had tears in their eyes.

Meng Changjin was even more afraid to move. Although it was not like he had never transformed himself into someone else before, and the person who transformed him into was also his relative, Meng Changjin had never experienced such a scene before.

The most important thing is that she wears other people's clothes because she has to complete the mission.

But now that she has been reincarnated into this body, according to Xiao Si, she will be this person from now on.

This girl with the same name and surname as her.

The feeling is completely different.

Meng Changjin didn't know what to say or what to do. There were actually two reasons for this.

The first thing, of course, is that I have never seen such a scene. Although these people are not good-looking, their eyes are so sincere.

But secondly, it was precisely because of this sincerity that Meng Changjin was at a loss.

Because she felt that their worry, relief, and tears in their eyes were not directed at her, but at someone else.

She is not, she feels guilty.
