Chapter 259: New God
"Quack!"
Although the giant frog doesn't like this icy and snowy environment, it has no other choice now that it's here.
It chirped, and its spiritual power surged madly, flowing towards the witch of the frog tribe.
The skin of the Frog Tribe witch was already loose and his hair was gray.
But after he absorbed the power of the Frog God, his scalp turned darker at a speed visible to the naked eye, his skin, which was like old tree bark, regained its luster, and his cloudy eyes became even more captivating.
"Wu Li, it's Wu Li!"
The Frog Tribe witch was so excited that his whole body was shaking.
Ever since the death of the old frog god, the witch of the frog tribe has lost his magical powers. He can no longer perform witchcraft, can no longer communicate with the frog god, and even his ability to cure diseases has deteriorated a lot.
Because of this, the status of the witch in the Frog Tribe became lower and lower, and finally the entire tribe listened to the leader, and the witch became a mascot with no real power at all.
However, now, with the emergence of the new frog god, the frog tribe witch has regained his witch power, and he will regain his voice in the tribe in the future.
Almost at the moment when the witch power was infused, the witch of the frog tribe figured out all these things, and transferred his faith in the old frog god directly to the new frog god, even more devoutly than before!
"Thank the Frog God!"
The Frog Tribe witch knelt down with his forehead pressed directly to the cold snow.
On the way from the Western Wilderness to the Southern Wilderness, he experienced a lot of hardships and his mentality also changed to a certain extent.
At that time, he gave all power to Huo Meng, which was also a self-destructive act because he had no ability to manage the Frog Tribe.
Now, the new frog god appeared and he got the magic power he had always dreamed of, and his mentality changed again.
He no longer wanted to be a mascot that was only used in sacrifices and for totem painting.
"Quack!"
The giant frog croaked again, and this time, the divine power in its body surged wildly and spread in all directions.
Huo Meng was the first to be enveloped by the divine power. His whole body underwent tremendous changes under the nourishment of the divine power.
Before this, he had always been a three-color warrior and had no way of breaking through, making him weaker than the leaders of other small tribes.
Now, with the help of the giant frog, Huo Meng has made a breakthrough and become a four-color warrior! "Thank the Frog God!"
Huo Meng also fell into ecstasy and bowed to the giant frog like a witch.
Next came the frog tribe warriors. Although they did not receive as many benefits as the witch and the leader, their strength was also improved to varying degrees.
The members of the Frog Tribe were ecstatic and readily accepted the new Frog God.
The giant frog successfully joined the frog tribe in a way that the tribesmen could not refuse, and became the new totem god of the frog tribe! After doing all this, the frog god's divine power and soul power were consumed a lot, and he felt weak.
It leaped to the foot of a mountain behind the frog tribe’s residential area, then quickly dug a big hole with its claws, crawled into it to avoid the wind and snow, and hibernated for the first time in its life as a frog.
The witch and the chief of the frog tribe stood up, and the members of the frog tribe also stood up one after another.
Huo Meng walked up to Jiang Xuan and said sincerely: "Thank you, Chief Xuan, for bringing a new patron saint to our Frog Tribe."
Jiang Xuan smiled and said, "No need to thank me. The strength of the Frog Tribe is also good for our Vine Tribe."
Afterwards, Jiang Xuan rejected Huo Meng's invitation to dinner and walked towards where Chi Shao and others were.
He had already seen Chishao, Nanxing, Fengcao and others waiting on the side, and now he couldn't wait to reunite with them.
“Creaky…”
Jiang Xuan's animal leather boots stepped on the snow on the ground, and his steps were very easy.
He walked straight to Chishao, looked at her, and said, "I'm back."
"It's good to be back, it's good to be back."
A long-lost smile appeared on Chishao's face.
Feng Cao on the side was also very excited. Although he didn't say anything, his eyes were always on Jiang Xuan.
Nanxing said: "Chief, it's snowing hard here, let's go back to the tribe first."
"Okay, go back!"
Jiang Xuan readily agreed, and then walked with them towards the south gate of the tribe. Tangyuan thought they were walking too slowly and wanted to go home quickly, so he flew back directly.
When Jiang Xuan walked under the tall vine wall, his nerves, which had been tense outside, could finally relax.
He walked through the south gate and into the Teng Tribe. Everyone he met on the way greeted Jiang Xuan excitedly.
Jiang Xuan didn't put on any airs at all and responded to these tribesmen one by one.
Fortunately, it is winter now and not many people know that Jiang Xuan has returned, otherwise Jiang Xuan might not be able to respond at all.
“Boom boom boom!”
Jiang Xuan continued to move forward. Just as he approached the bamboo forest, he heard the sound of heavy hooves hitting the ground.
Soon, a huge figure rushed over and excitedly circled around Jiang Xuan several times.
It is the Black Wind Rhinoceros Yueya. Although it has grown very large, its mentality is still like that of a child. It has not seen Jiang Xuan for such a long time and has missed him very much.
Yueya rubbed her head gently against Jiang Xuan, making a baby-like sound, as if she was acting coquettishly.
"Alright, alright, Yueya, stop rubbing me. I'm back now."
Jiang Xuan didn't know whether to laugh or cry, but he still had to comfort Yueya.
As expected, Yueya stopped rubbing and knelt down on its knees, lowered its body, and motioned Jiang Xuan to sit on its back.
Jiang Xuan sat on it with a smile, and Yueya immediately ran excitedly into the bamboo forest.
Jiang Xuan turned around and said to Chi Shao, "Sister, I'll come find you later."
"good."
Chishao responded with a smile that Jiang Xuan had already returned to the tribe and there was no need to rush.
“Boom boom boom…”
Yueya ran happily with Jiang Xuan and soon returned to Jiang Xuan's yard.
When Jiang Xuan saw the familiar and clean courtyard, he felt an indescribable sense of comfort in his heart.
This is what home feels like.
“Squeak…”
Jiang Xuan pushed open the door and walked into the room.
The fire was still burning in the fire pit, the whole house was warm, all the tables and chairs were wiped clean, and all the things were neatly arranged.
Jiang Xuan asked Feng Cao who was following behind him, "Who cleaned this?"
Fengcao said, "It's Dongkui. She comes over several times a day to clean the house, light the fire, wipe the tables and chairs, and feed Yueya with grass."
Jiang Xuan nodded. Dongkui was a hardworking and good girl.
Jiang Xuan sat on a clean chair and asked Fengcao to sit down as well.
"Tell me the more important things that happened during the time I was away from the tribe."
"yes!"
Fengcao organized his thoughts and began to report the situation of the Teng tribe to Jiang Xuan.
Because it was winter and the external threat was relatively small, not much happened in the tribe, and they were all trivial internal issues.
For example, tribesmen stole goods, fought, and prisoners escaped.
After Fengcao finished sharing this information, he wanted to say something but stopped himself.
"Just say whatever you want to say. You are the leader of the thorn vines, don't hesitate."
Fengcao nodded without hesitation: "I think there is something wrong with Chief Jingjie recently."
"What's the problem?"
"He often used his status to bring some fish home, and then gave them to the women in the tribe that he liked, so that they would sleep with him."
Jiang Xuan frowned. In the past two years, as the Teng tribe artificially bred fish fry and released them into the river, there were a lot of fish in the river. This year, winter fishing has started again.
So, other teams may not have much harvest in winter, but the fishing team has a big harvest in winter.
As a leader, it was inevitable for Jingjie to take some of the catch home, but it was wrong for him to profit from it in this way.
Of course, he didn't commit any big mistake. The tribesmen never cared much about who they slept with.
This is also the reason why Fengcao hesitated whether to say it.
But a little can reveal a lot. If the Teng tribe continues to grow and develop, the power in the hands of these leaders will also become greater and greater. By then, will they still be satisfied with exchanging some catches for pleasure? Jiang Xuan said: "I know, I will deal with this matter. If you encounter similar things in the future, you must report to me."
"yes."
After Fengcao reported all the information, he took the initiative to help Jiang Xuan wash some dried animal meat and red crystal rice, put them in the pot to boil, and then planned to leave.
Jiang Xuan said: "Since you are here, let's eat together. I have something to tell you."
"yes."
Fengcao sat down again.
Jiang Xuan began to tell her about what he encountered and heard when he went to the central part, so that Fengcao could have an idea of the central part of the Southern Wilderness.
"Fengcao, the reason I'm telling you this is because I hope that in the future, your people from the Thorn Vine can be placed in the Otter Tribe, the Crab Tribe, or even the Crocodile Tribe, the Ant Tribe, the Spider Tribe, and other large tribes in the central region."
"The central part of the Southern Wilderness is a good place. It really is a good place. There are so many resources of all kinds."
Feng Cao asked, "Chief, do you mean that we should migrate to the central part of the Southern Wilderness like other large tribes?"
Jiang Xuan said: "We will talk about whether to migrate or not later, but we must have the resources in the central region. Now we have ships, as long as we can successfully open up the route, we can bring back the resources in the central region one ship at a time."
Fengcao said in embarrassment: "But the central part of the Southern Wilderness is too far away. It is very difficult for us, the Thorn Vine, to place our own people in all the tribes along the way."
Jiang Xuan smiled and said, "So, I left you a person in the middle. Through this person, we can control more people and make them become thorn vines!"
"Who?"
"Members of the Rat Tribe!"
Then, Jiang Xuan told him about the Rat Tribe, especially their ability to dig holes and steal things, as well as their ability to disguise themselves as members of other tribes.
When Fengcao heard about these abilities, his eyes lit up: "This Rat Tribe is perfect for us, Nepeta Teng!"
"It is indeed suitable, so I asked the vine god to leave a seed in the gray mouse's body and gave him a magical plant fruit that can increase his strength, so that he can quickly become stronger."
"As long as the gray mouse can become strong enough, he can become the leader. If we give him a hand, he may be able to reunite the fragmented mouse tribe!"
"A complete Rat Tribe that knows the Central Region well will be of great help to us."
After Jiang Xuan finished speaking, Feng Cao nodded repeatedly, and a longing light appeared in her eyes. She longed for a wider world with greater challenges.
