Chapter 240 Seven Color Warriors
"No...No..."
Qingye was flustered for a moment, but she quickly adjusted herself.
Qingye untied the animal leather bag tied around his waist, opened the bag, took out a bright red fruit from it, and handed it to Jiang Xuan gently.
"What's this?"
Jiang Xuan took the fruit, looked at it carefully, and asked curiously.
"This is the fruit of the head-chopping grass. I got it when I was hunting in the Black Water Marsh. Eating it can increase your strength."
"You saved Shiya, so this fruit is for you."
After Qingye’s explanation, Jiang Xuan understood.
The head-cutting grass should also be a kind of magical plant. After eating it, it can enhance people's strength.
Different magical plant fruits can enhance the warriors' various abilities.
Such as strength, speed, vision, hearing and so on.
Because of this, the fruit of the magical plant is extremely precious to the warriors, and many people even risk their lives to pick it.
The fact that Qingye gave this fruit that could enhance strength as a thank you gift showed his sincerity.
Jiang Xuan declined, "It was just a small favor for me to save Shiya. I cannot accept such a valuable thing."
Qingye said stubbornly: "Please accept it. The Crocodile Tribe will repay a favor."
Jiang Xuan was not a fussy person. Seeing Qingye was so persistent, he accepted it. After all, there was no point in pushing it back and forth.
When Qingye saw Jiang Xuan accept the fruit, a relaxed smile appeared on his face again.
"Chief Xuan, can I tell you about your Teng tribe?"
Jiang Xuan was very curious about the Teng Tribe. What would the Teng Tribe be like if it could cultivate a leader as young and powerful as Qingye? "Of course."
Qingye thought about it, and then introduced the situation of the Teng tribe to Jiang Xuan without any selection, including the trading area outside the Teng tribe, various domesticated birds and beasts, as well as planting, fishing, etc.
As for the Teng Tribe's slow growth and decline over the past few years and the God Vine's continuous breakthroughs, Qingye did not mention a word, because it would be of no benefit to the Teng Tribe if those things were publicized.
Inside, the moonlight was like water, and the sounds of insects and night birds could be heard from time to time.
Outside the house, the firelight flickered, and Qingye and Gedong chatted a little about the Fuji tribe and the central part of the Southern Wilderness. The two of them had a very pleasant conversation.
It was not until late at night that Jiang Xuan got up and said to Qingye, "It's early, you should go back to bed."
"Okay, be careful on the road."
Jiang Xuan lit a torch and turned to walk inside.
When you walked to the door, you suddenly remembered something, so you turned back and asked Ge Dong, "You guys are going to Baishuize to hunt tomorrow, are you interested in going with us?"
Qingye said: "If you want to go, Tangyuan must go with you."
"This purple vicious bird? There's a problem. Bai Shuize is very safe. Without it to warn the world, you will be in more danger."
Jiang Xuan knows what Tangyuan is, but you know that this purple ferocious bird is very powerful, but also very stupid, and it can play a certain role in the past.
"Okay, then you go with them tomorrow morning with the dumplings."
"It's settled then. Go to bed early and leave at dawn tomorrow."
Before Jiang Xuan finished speaking, he happily held the torch and went upstairs to his residence.
Before Jiang Xuan left, Ge Dongguan closed the door of the stilt house, returned to the fire pit, took out the fruit that Jiang Xuan gave me, which could increase my strength when eaten, looked at it carelessly for a moment, and then put it away again.
A fruit like that would only provide a small boost to a warrior with high strength, but for a weak warrior like Aoba, even if he ate it, the boost in strength would be minimal.
In that case, I'd better keep it for now. I heard it will come in handy.
Qingye packed up his things and lay down on the bed covered with reeds and animal skins. He fell asleep soon after.
Before I fell asleep, the sacred vine on my arm emitted a brief and powerful light, but it slowly became brighter again.
On the seventh day, Qingye woke up on time just after dawn.
I packed up my belongings and weapons, and covered the burning firewood outside the fire pit with ash. That method could prevent a fire and also allow the firewood to simmer in the ash, so the fire could be kept for about a day.
Qingye closed the door and went up to the stilt house.
I washed my face by a large shallow stream and cleaned my teeth with a hair toothbrush and specially ground salt powder that I carried with me.
If other people in my tribe knew that I used salt to clean my teeth, they would probably beat their chests and call me a spendthrift.
Because salt is too precious to the tribesmen.
Before finishing washing up, Qingye walked towards the place where the Crocodile Tribe hunting team gathered.
The place was already crowded with people, and with Qingye's extraordinary hearing, he found it in a very tense manner.
In order to retreat from Baishuize, the Crocodile Tribe gathered about a thousand warriors, and their strength was relatively weak, and a small number of them were warriors below seven colors.
"Ge Dongsheng, outside!"
In the crowd, Gedong saw Qingye at a glance and waved at me.
Qingye immediately walked to Jiang Xuan's side.
Jiang Xuan took out a piece of bone tied with a rope from his animal skin bag and stuffed it into Qingye's pocket, saying, "That's what you asked the witch for. There's no totem pattern of your crocodile tribe on it. As long as he hangs it around his waist, the crocodiles will attack him."
Qingye took the bone piece, and I found that the totem pattern underneath seemed to contain a mysterious power. The crocodile pattern's eyes were open, and just one look at it made me feel a breathtaking fear.
Wu always comes up with some weird things.
Qingye also cared a lot about it and tied the bone piece directly under his belt.
There is a vine of the divine vine wrapped around my arm. Even if the piece of bone is not strange, it will be suppressed by the divine vine.
"Set off!"
The leader Ci Mu gave a shout, and then all the warriors of the Crocodile Tribe took their belongings and walked inside.
Ci Mu obviously knew that Qing Ye would go with us, and I turned around and smiled at Qing Ye kindly.
Less than a thousand people walked along the smallest stream outside the tribe, in the opposite direction of the fence.
“Clatter…”
As they went down, many small crocodiles jumped into the water and followed the crowd back.
Ge Dong looked around Qi Zhou and said to Qing Ye, "Where is his purple vicious bird? Can it follow us?"
Qingye smiled and said, "It will definitely follow us soon."
Qingye took out a bone whistle and blew a few times towards the sky.
"Eer..."
Outside the nearby forest, a sharp bird cry was heard, and then a huge purple ferocious bird flew down from the sky.
Ge Dong blew a few more bone whistles, and Tangyuan immediately locked onto my location, but did not fly directly under the Crocodile Tribe. Instead, it went around the edge of the Crocodile Tribe's territory and followed from a distance.
Because Qingye had specifically told it that it could fly directly under the Crocodile Tribe. That would be an insult to the Crocodile Tribe, but it would also be a protection for itself.
If we fly directly over the crocodile tribe and the totem god of the crocodile tribe gets angry, there will be less trouble.
Jiang Xuan looked at the purple ferocious bird in the sky with a strange look in his eyes. The tribesmen hated that kind of ferocious creature.
The warriors of the tribe retreated very slowly. Soon, we passed through the territory of the crocodile tribe and came to a small river bend.
Outside the river bend, countless small crocodiles were resting there, some floating in the water, some lying on the shore, and occasionally scanning the surroundings with icy eyes.
"Jiang Xuandao, come here slowly."
Jiang Xuan stood next to a small crocodile that was about ten meters long and called Qingye over.
The creatures in that world are all very small, and the crocodiles are the same. Qingye even saw a few small crocodiles that were seventy or eighty meters long. They were truly huge monsters.
Ge Dong was the first to sit on the back of the little crocodile, followed by Qingye who waded over and also sat on the back of the little crocodile.
The skin of the little crocodile was bluish-gray, and its back was flat and bumpy, just like a cobblestone road.
The leader of the crocodile tribe rode the smallest crocodile and set off first with a dozen warriors.
Other small crocodiles followed closely behind, carrying the crocodile tribe warriors.
"Daqing, you guys are leaving too!"
Jiang Xuan patted the little crocodile, and the little crocodile flicked its tail and swam backwards quickly to catch up with the small group.
"It's called Daqing?"
Qingye pointed at the little crocodile in astonishment.
"Yes, your name is Ge Dong and its name is Da Qing. You grew up together. Is that ok?"
“There is…there is a problem…”
Qingye just remembered a snake spirit that was also called "Daqing".
Da Qing swam very steadily. Like some crocodiles, he hated to sink his whole body into the water, and instead kept his back slightly above the water.
That way, the person sitting below can be more comfortable.
From that point of view, Daqing obviously knows how to take care of people's feelings better than other crocodiles.
Hundreds of small crocodiles swam out of the river bend and into the narrow river, making a very loud noise.
In the sky, Tangyuan locked onto Qingye's position and followed it in fast and tight flight, sometimes even stopping at the mountain behind to rest for a while.
For Tangyuan, the crocodiles outside the water swam too fast.
Along the way, whether it was water beasts or various small fish, they all avoided such a huge group of crocodiles.
The group of crocodiles swam on the water for a whole day, but still hadn't reached Baishuize. After the sun set, we rested for the night on a river beach.
The beach was very narrow and wide, and there were many signs of fire and some luxurious wooden sheds underneath.
Apparently, the Crocodile Tribe warriors often used that place as their overnight camp.
Before the little crocodile went ashore, the leader Ci Mu asked some of the warriors to go hunting, and some to collect dry firewood and light a bonfire.
Before sending the soldiers to shore, these little crocodiles went back into the water. They also needed to find food to fill their stomachs and replenish their energy.
Although Ge Dong was a guest, he might have been reaping the rewards of his hard work, eating the prey that the crocodile tribe warriors had worked hard to hunt.
Therefore, I took the initiative to request to retreat from the mountains to hunt. Jiang Xuan was more familiar with the terrain than the distant areas, and was responsible for leading Ge Dong.
Ge Dong is a seven-color warrior, and hunting is more of a hobby for me.
Before the two men retreated from the mountain, Qingye tracked down two small prey. Before finding the prey, he severely injured the prey with a short spear, then killed them with his bare hands and carried them back to the camp.
Before returning to the campfire in the camp, Qingye carried a prey to the leader of the crocodile tribe, Ci Mu, as a gift for me.
"Hahaha, Jiang Xuandao, he is too polite."
Ci Mu was very depressed. Although I was short of that prey, Ge Dong gave me that prey, which made me feel valued and respected.
"Chief Ci Mu, it's just a prey. Take it. I heard that Bai Shuize is very safe. You are unfamiliar with this place. You will have to trouble Chief Ci Mu to take care of you when the time comes."
"Hahaha, there is a problem. Jiang Xuandao can worry as much as he wants. When we get to Baishuize, he will just follow you."
Qingye chatted with Cimu for a few more words, then returned to the wooden shed where Jiang Xuan was.
The prey hunted by Ge Dong weighed at least a thousand pounds each, so Jiang Xuan and I would definitely finish eating it.
Qingye skinned and cleaned the prey, then cut the meat into strips with a bronze knife disguised with paint and gave them to the seven-week-old crocodile tribe warriors to eat.
As a result, the Crocodile Tribe warriors' favorability towards Ge Dong soared, and the Xiaojia admired my generosity, and their impression of the Vine Tribe also improved.
At the beginning, Ge Dong gave some of the meat to the crocodile named "Da Qing" to eat.
Jiang Xuan witnessed Ge Dong's series of actions with his own eyes. There was a burst of surprise in his eyes, and he liked Ge Dong even less.
After all, compared with other rude tribesmen, it is obviously less pleasant to get along and chat with Qingye, not to mention that I am weak and far superior to my peers.
Of course, there are so few warriors in the Crocodile Tribe, and even if Qingye is so generous, no one will pay attention to me.
Those people are Jiang Xuan’s men.
Jiang Xuan is a relatively ordinary boy in the crocodile tribe.
Your fighting talent is very low, and your strength is very weak. Among your peers, the weakest is only slightly weaker than you, and there are many who are stronger than you.
But Jiang Xuan is a person with a low spirit. The woman you hate must be weaker than you, so you have no chance at all.
Therefore, all those warriors who wanted to pursue Jiang Xuan were mercifully caught by you.
Some of the people who struggled hard were even beaten up severely by Ge Dong one by one.
Even so, there were still very few warriors who had no ideas about Ge Dong, they just dared to show it like they did later.
It would be fine if all the small families were there, but now, Jiang Xuan obviously had no good feelings towards Qingye, and the sight of the two of them being silent and without laughter deeply hurt those people.
We were naturally very happy with Qingye, and even wanted to find an opportunity to embarrass Ge Dong and destroy Jiang Xuan's good impression of me.
"Is that the Seven Color Warrior? There's nothing wrong with that!"
"Yes, he is still a leader. The leader of your crocodile tribe is a warrior!"
"When we get to Baishuize, I'll be in trouble!"
…
Those people were talking loudly, wanting to teach Qingye a lesson.
However, when we found out that Ge Dong was actually grilling meat for Aoba, we were so jealous that we were going crazy, and we hated Aoba even more.
Ge Dong's eight senses are very sharp. When I felt a hostile gaze, I immediately looked over here and found that they were a few young warriors from the Crocodile Tribe. They smiled at us in a friendly manner.
When these soldiers saw my smiling face, they felt more comfortable, but they did not dare to show their hostility directly. They could only turn their heads away and suppress their anger in their hearts.
Qingye also cares. Even if it is a knife coin, there are still many people who dislike it, let alone me? It is enough to ensure that a small number of people in the Crocodile Tribe have no good feelings towards me and the Teng Tribe.
Jiang Xuan also followed Ge Dong's gaze and glanced over here. Seeing that they were several soldiers who had pursued you in the past, he didn't care.
To put it bluntly, the more we act like that, the more Jiang Xuan looks down on us.
