Chapter 169 Summary
Compared with the men, the women of the Bingdong tribe wear all cloth clothes, long brown skirts with large collars, and their headdresses are also very simple, a small square scarf of the same color as the clothes, wrapped from the back of the bun to the front of the forehead, and the two corners are pulled out to tie a small bow, which is simple and beautiful.
Moreover, perhaps because these women do not interfere with worldly affairs, there is a hint of calmness and gentleness between their brows. Compared with those burly men wearing animal skins, their temperament is completely different.
In short, no matter who they are, tall or short, fat or thin, everyone exudes a gentle beauty that makes people feel comfortable.
Soon, good wine and delicious food were served.
After Mr. Lu and his group finished their meal, they would be dragged away to be beheaded. The ropes on their hands had become foot ties, and they had to use their hands to hold chopsticks and food.
As for Ding Xiaodie and Lu Xingluo, they went to tie their feet.
The old patriarch was very confident: "These two little guys can't cause any big waves, nothing will happen."
Okay, if you say it’s okay, then it’s okay.
Bing Lao San really released the two of them, but he did not allow them to leave the hut and required them to accompany everyone to have their last meal.
Of course you have to eat it, you’d be a fool not to!
Ding Xiaodie and Lu Xingluo sat at the same table, eating happily. They stuffed fried cabbage, steamed taro meat, and green bean soup into their mouths desperately.
Bingsan also said, "The meat was wild boar meat that we accidentally hunted. Otherwise, we Bingdong people don't eat meat."
Upon hearing this, Ding Xiaodie immediately put down the pig's trotter in her hand, stood up and said loudly: "Such a hospitality is already a gift, thank you, Grandpa, the clan leader."
The old chief was about to leave. He couldn't bear to see these people eating meat, so he decided to leave for a while so that he could see nothing.
Who would have thought that he would hear someone calling him grandpa?
"What did you call me?"
Everyone in the Bingdong tribe calls him the tribe leader, but this little girl actually dares to call him grandpa. It's really... really infuriating.
The old man immediately turned around and came to Ding Xiaodie, waving his fists: "Don't call me grandpa, I'm not that old."
Looking at his white hair and beard fluttering in the wind, everyone frowned: "..." He really dares to say that he is young!
Ding Gui was worried his daughter would be at a disadvantage, so he hurriedly wanted to say something, but his Bao'er calmly and slowly clasped her fists and smiled innocently, "Calling you grandpa is a great respect. Besides, even if you're old, you're still the most capable and handsome grandpa."
"Huh, seriously?" The old man's eyes suddenly lit up. He stopped waving his fists and waited for the answer with anticipation.
"Of course it's true. You're the most handsome grandpa I've ever seen." Ding Xiaodie smiled and glanced back at everyone, then gestured to them, "Don't you agree?"
"Yes, of course." Everyone understood that this cruel old man actually liked others to flatter him.
Mr. Lu immediately stood up and said, "Senior, you are a rare talent."
Lu Chenhe stood up: "The clan leader is very handsome."
Ding Gui stood up and chuckled, "Please forgive me, Chief. I'm just a rough guy with little education and I can't speak, but in my opinion, your looks are simply that, one in a million, the best of the best. I've lived for most of my life, and I've never seen anyone as good-looking as you. Those eyebrows, those eyes, that nose bridge, wow, you may very well be the most beautiful person in the Bingdong tribe for generations!"
"Really? What you said is true?" The old man stroked his beard, and his whole face became radiant.
He is floating!
This was exactly the effect she was looking for. Ding Xiaodie hurriedly brought a glass of wine and walked forward, "Grandpa Clan Leader, you're so handsome and kind-hearted. We're going to kill these people anyway, so why not have a drink with them? That way, they'll have a good impression of you before they die."
"That's well said, little girl. What's your name?" The old man took the wine.
"Xiaodie."
"Oh, willow catkins flutter on the tent, spring clouds are hot, the tortoise shell screen makes my eyes blurry, butterflies fly from east to west, and the young man on white knight returns today!" When the old man heard her name, he actually recited a poem with great interest, and drank the wine in his hand after he finished it.
"Clan leader?"
Seeing this scene, Bing Lao San and Xiong Shen E Sha suddenly became nervous. The clan leader cannot touch alcohol. Once he touches alcohol, he can't stop.
Sure enough, the scene that followed was the old man chatting with the people he was going to chop, drinking like brothers, taking turns to drink, and the coming and going was very lively.
How can this be the last meal before execution?
People who don't understand the situation might think that this is someone's wedding.
Bing Lao San and his group left the house in silence. There was nothing they could do but let him drink!
Ding Xiaodie quietly observed Bing Lao San and the others. As soon as the two of them left the house, she hurriedly approached the old man and said mysteriously, "Grandpa, there is something I want to tell you."
"What is it? Tell me."
Ding Xiaodie said with childlike innocence, "Actually, we followed Master Lu to fight against those desert soldiers just to protect you."
“…”
How can anyone believe this?
The old man stopped drinking and said, "Don't talk nonsense, little girl."
"I'm not talking nonsense. If you don't believe me, go ask Master Lu, and then ask that Bing Lao San. Why did he blurt out the words 'Bingdong Clan' before Bing Lao San even introduced himself?" Ding Xiaodie made sure the old man was listening carefully and continued, "Because Master Lu has known about Dayun Mountain for a long time, but out of respect he never bothered you. But now he can't stand it anymore. Do you know why?"
"Why?" The old man was taken advantage of and actually followed her and spoke in dialect.
Ding Xiaodie suppressed her laughter. "Because those desert soldiers also knew through their spies that you were in Dayun Mountain, they wanted to capture you all. When Master Lu found out about this, he led us to fight to the death."
"Nonsense, why would they attack the Bingdong tribe?" Upon hearing this, the old man suddenly stood up excitedly, and his voice rose eight degrees, scaring the other people who were drinking to stop immediately.
Everyone looked at the old man quietly, then at Ding Xiaodie, thinking: Could it be that this girl made him angry?
Ding Xiaodie then raised her voice, "Because the Desert Soldiers know your ancestors very well, they know that your Bingdong tribe has had talented people for generations. They're currently attacking Qi Yan, and while they were initially aggressive, they're now gradually losing. So, they want to find talented individuals within Qi Yan so they can come up with the most effective counterattack strategy."
"This...what if we don't want to?" The old man was so anxious that his face turned red.
Seeing that he had successfully fallen into the trap, Ding Xiaodie revealed a serious expression and said, "Yes, you are masters from other worlds, so naturally you will not surrender to those barbarians. That's why Master Lu brought us to keep the evil people out so that you can live in peace."
