"Chief, what was that noise outside just now?"
Except for the fox cubs under the age of five, all the rest were taken by Teng Ning to a large cave outside the tribe to live. The explosion site chosen by Ling Yun was not far from where they were currently stationed. The stone walls of the cave were shaking, and even at the moment of the explosion, even the small stones and straw on the ground jumped up.
The younger orcs huddled beside their fathers and trembled. They all looked at the chief, fear on their faces.
The fox tribe leader came out of the cave and keenly smelled the smell of gunpowder outside.
He immediately understood that this was the tiger tribe's deterrence.
"I didn't expect the Tiger Tribe to possess such power," the Fox Tribe leader was relieved that they had no ill intentions towards the Tiger Tribe from the beginning. "Fortunately, it was just a deterrent."
The fox tribe doesn't have a very good reputation on the mainland right now. This year they were desperate and came to the tiger tribe to try their luck.
Unexpectedly, this powerful tribe was really willing to help them. The fox tribe leader did have the idea of relying on them at the beginning, but he definitely had no other thoughts.
Now that they have been bombed, they are even more in awe of the tiger tribe.
After the aftershock of the explosion faded, Teng Ning came over and said apologetically, "I'm sorry, I was too busy last night and forgot to inform you. Our tribe is blocked by a small hill, making the road difficult to travel. The wind is relatively light today, so the tribe leader led everyone to use gunpowder to blast a small path through the hill. I guess I scared you, didn't I?"
Originally, everyone was just listening to the sound, and they calmed down after the loud noise. But after hearing Teng Ning's description, they were shocked that the tiger tribe actually had the power to move mountains and seas. The timid ones even started to tremble in their legs.
The fox tribe's leader tried to calm himself down: "You're too polite. I was indeed startled at first, but it's no big deal."
Teng Ning smiled. "That's good. I came here to tell you something else. Your females and cubs are now living and eating in our tribe. As you know, food wasn't plentiful last year, so we hope you can help us with some work in exchange for food. There's not much to hunt outside right now, so if you do a good job, we can provide you with some potatoes to fill your stomachs. They might not taste as good as meat, but at least you won't starve to death."
Asking the fox tribe to help with the work is like giving someone a sweet treat after being blown up by gunpowder.
They didn't know what potatoes were yet, but the fox tribe was different from the tiger tribe. They didn't just eat meat. They also liked to eat some fruits in good season and could digest anything.
Now the males in their tribe survive by digging up grass roots. When they heard that the tiger tribe was willing to provide food, the fox tribe leader calmed down for a long time but still broke down.
He actually burst into tears in front of everyone and grabbed Teng Ning's hand: "Of course, we should. We will definitely help you. Just provide us with some food."
Teng Ning also understood the patriarch's feelings. Now it seems that this is a good fox.
However, one can only judge a person by his appearance, not his heart. Since they are not of the same race, Teng Ning is not so sure about trusting them.
"Then please find four or five clever and capable tribesmen and come with me to the tribe to learn how to make it. Then we can bring the raw materials back for processing. If you want to visit your females, you can do so during the time when the work is finished. At other times, our tribe cannot allow you to come and go as you please."
