"The little tribe Xia, I have come to meet the Minister of Gale. ”

In the stone house, Xia Tuo bowed his head and closed his eyes and said loudly, it should be a salute to an old piece of wood.

Who makes the family have this condition.

"This salt is produced by your tribe. ”

A hoarse voice sounded, and on the stone chair in front of him, an old man wrapped in beast robes was holding a cane and squinting at Xia Tuo.

The wide beast robe looked very funny on the thin old man, but Xia Tuo didn't dare to have the slightest disrespect, there was a burning sensation in his chest, and there seemed to be an air flow in the thin old man in front of him.

Open the mountain realm.

The thought couldn't help but staggering him.

It is not unreasonable to occupy the southern region of the Wangu Mountain Range and be regarded as a behemoth by countless tribes.

Obviously, this old man is one of the principles of the Gale Ministry.

"Yes. ”

Xia Tuo lowered his head and said: "Two months ago, the tribe dug a cave in order to live, and dug out a rock void layer, and salt appeared. ”

Seeing Xia Tuo trying his best to keep his body from trembling, the old man nodded slightly, he didn't doubt Xia Tuo's words, a small part is a small part, no different from an insect can only dig a hole and live.

The vast wilderness world is rich and mysterious, is it strange to dig up salt?

The little guy in front of him is good, and he knows that there are some things that he can't have.

It's a pity that it's too far away from the tribe, and he already knows from his mouth that the so-called Xia tribe is a day's way away from the Lu tribe.

Those places in the depths of the mountain range are awkward and barren, and it is not worth the energy of the Gale Department to expend too much energy, and the effort is not proportional to the gain.

"Fish. ”

"Yes. ”

The man standing on the side hurriedly bowed down and answered.

Seeing the old man in the seat squinting his eyes again, Xia Tuo understood that this was chasing away the guest, and he retreated behind him.

"Your Excellency, now that the salt has been delivered, it is time for us to return to the tribe. ”

Walking out of the stone house, Xia Tuo said loudly before he spoke.

"Going?"

He groaned, and then said: "You offered salt, thinking of my gale department, which is very good, but it is a pity that the patriarch is fighting outside, otherwise there will be no reward to come." ”

"It doesn't matter if you give a reward or something, I want the method of measuring the stone pillar and the doll's body tempering, can you give it?"

After slandering two sentences in his heart, Xia Tuo's expression froze, and he said with a playful face: "Isn't it appropriate to pay tribute to the upper part, is there still a reward for the upper part?"

The look was so surprising that it was as if I really didn't know.

I think that the patriarch of the Xia tribe in front of him is still very good.

At this time, Xia Tuo said again: "When I came along the way, there were many poisonous insects, snakes and ants that I couldn't prevent it, and I saw that Lord Zhen had the witch medicine he carried with him, and I don't know if I could give it to the next one, so that when the next time the clan came to deliver salt, I could avoid the snakes, insects, rats and ants on the road, and rush to the upper part quickly." ”

After saying this, Xia Tuo saw the change in his expression, and immediately hurriedly said: "Don't get me wrong, I mean that the high-grade witch medicine can be used by a small part of us, just give some medicine residue." ”

Hearing this, his expression softened slightly.

Every witch medicine in the tribe was made by witchcraft, and if he hadn't needed to pass the order to the Lu tribe from the depths of the mountains and forests, he wouldn't have been able to get it.

At this moment, he saw Xia Tuo stretching out his hand and grabbing him, and suddenly a spirit was excited, he didn't expect this kid to look good-eyed, and he turned out to be such a person.

But after a moment of stunnedness, I felt that I had stuffed something in my hand, an animal skin bag.

"This is the salt that the reckless bastard spilled on the ground yesterday, I put it away, how dare I give the salt that was stained with a little soil to the upper part, I hope that the eldest brother will not dislike it. ”

Xia Tuo said with a sincere face, and sure enough, his expression softened, and he pinched the salt wrapped in animal skins, which was the size of two fists.

Even if it is stained with a little soil, it is much better than bitter green salt.

He has become a totem warrior and has been running around the tribe for so many years, and it is the first time he has collected things like this, and he is still a little excited in his heart for a while.

Can people still play like this?

Although I always feel that something is wrong, I feel so comfortable.

Although he is a totem warrior, the snow-white salt offered by the Xia tribe will not be his turn, after all, it is just such a jar, there are patriarchs and elders in the tribe, as well as the descendants of the patriarch elders, and there are many people who are stronger than him.

For a moment, he couldn't help but clench the animal skin bag, and then stuffed it into his animal skin coat.

"You're waiting here. ”

Looking into the distance, Xia Tuo stood in place and waited, and the deer followed him not far behind.

Obviously, even if he offered salt, he was still an insignificant little person to the Gale Ministry, and the elder was probably still giving Tianda face when he saw him.

As for whether he has resentment in his heart, it is not for the Gale Department to consider, even if there is resentment, hehe, where is the truth of the strong man of the Gale Ministry, you try it?

As for not sending salt anymore in the future?

Do you try?

Xia Tuo naturally didn't dare to try, he observed the gale department, although the tribe built stone houses and stone houses, but in fact it was still in a primitive slash-and-burn, hunting and fishing lifestyle.

However, it is certain that the Gale Ministry has already smelted copperware, and has not entered the Iron Age as previously thought.

The deer looked at Xia Tuo behind him, and he didn't understand Xia Tuo's actions.

And at this moment, Xia Tuo slandered in his heart, his strength is not as good as others, he can only be inferior, after all, we don't have that condition for the time being.

Soon he hurried in, carrying a small bamboo basket with a piece of animal skin in it.

"This is the medicine residue, although it is left after refining the medicine, but it is blessed by the witch, expelling some insects, ants, snakes and rats, and even the poison of the Split Stone Realm. ”

Xia Tuo took the bamboo basket, and after opening the animal skin, he saw some broken black rhizome animal bones or something, and immediately felt happy in his heart, and quickly retracted his expression and put it into the big bamboo basket behind him.

"Brother Zhai, don't worry, once there is a stock of salt in the tribe, I will send it to the upper part as soon as possible. ”

Once again, he spoke in front of him, which immediately made his face look satisfied.

This small tribe is not bad.

Perhaps feeling that it was a little bad not to say something, he patted Xia Tuo's shoulder, and said for a long time: "The Gale Department will not treat you badly." ”

"There is a big brother here, little brother rest assured. ”

Xia Tuo took over the conversation, and climbed to the top of the pole all of a sudden, and suddenly became commensurate with brothers.

"By the way, I just received an order from the elders, and I will go to the Lu tribe tomorrow, so let's go back together. ”

Xia Tuo was stunned for a moment, then his eyes showed a happy look, and he hurriedly said: "That's really good, with Big Brother Ty, the way back will be safe." ”

Thousands of clothes don't wear sycophants, anyway, compliments don't cost money, Xia Tuo doesn't mind saying a few more words, and the person in front of him seems to be quite useful.

Soon, he led him and the deer to a stone hut on the edge of the tribe, and turned away, without mentioning a reward or anything.

Xia Tuo didn't open his mouth to say anything, he still wanted a reward for paying tribute to the upper department, so it was the first time he came to the Gale Ministry.

He knew this very well, the relationship between the Gale Ministry and the nearby small tribes was more like a subordination, the small tribes needed to pay tribute to the Gale Ministry, and the Gale Ministry was to protect them from danger.

However, the strength of the Gale Department was not strong enough to suppress everything in the mountains, making the tributary system somewhat loose and full of loopholes.

The tribe in the deep mountains where the Hexia tribe is located is an example, and the strength of the Gale Department cannot reach the level of controlling everything, so it can only choose the tribe that has interests in the tribe to pull it into the tributary system of its own tribe.

Obviously, the Lu tribe is the nail in the mountain field deep in the mountain range of the Gale Ministry.

The Gale Department is like the top of the pyramid in this tributary system, and below it are the various tribes, like the roots of a big tree rooted in the earth, rooted in each tribe, absorbing the nutrients of each tribe to maintain the development of the tribe.

Of course, from today onwards, the Xia tribe can be regarded as having the qualification to enter the tributary system of the Gale Ministry.

I have to say that it is still very easy to shout that the eldest brother came to deliver dinner at nightfall, and warned Xia Tuo and the two not to go out and trespass in the tribe.

Xia Tuo was naturally full of promises, and during the day, he saw a thin old man who had the strength to open the mountain realm, where did he dare to run around in the Gale Tribe, and as for his own careful thoughts, he was even more pressed in the bottom of his heart.

Take your time, there will be a method of quenching the body, there will be a force totem pole, and there will be a witch medicine.

On the second day, under the leadership of the leader, Xia Tuo and Lu embarked on the return journey, and four days later appeared at the foot of the Niutou Mountain of the Lu tribe, separated from the Zhuang, and returned to the tribe.

This time, he directly contacted the Inferior Wind Tribe, and he didn't dare to guarantee that the Lu tribe would make other moves, so he had to rush back to the tribe to prepare.

......

"Patriarch. ”

When Xia Tuo returned, the whole tribe was in a sensation, and he went out for more than ten days, which can be regarded as making the tribesmen worry about it, and the meat was not fragrant, and they couldn't even sleep well.

Today, he is the backbone of the entire tribe.

"I have something to say about gathering the elders. ”

After appeasing the clansmen, Xia Tuo gathered the elders of the clan without feeling tired.

"Patriarch. ”

After a while, one by one the figures entered the cave and signaled to Xia Tuo, and at this moment Xia Tuo sat in front of the bonfire with his eyes slightly narrowed, and when everyone arrived, he opened his eyes and looked around at everyone, and said: "I am going to set up two more witches and shadows in addition to the three departments of martial arts, agriculture and soldiers." ”

"The dark department uses the deer as the elder, and specializes in collecting information about the surrounding parts of the outside, mountains, rivers, landforms, etc. ”

His voice, several people in the cave did not refute, the patriarch must have a reason for doing this.

"Great Elder, how many days of food stored by the tribe can be consumed by the tribe. ”

"Potatoes and meat are enough for twenty days. ”

Hearing this, Xia Tuo nodded, and then said: "Hong will suspend hunting from tomorrow onwards, and Elder Qian will set traps outside the tribe. ”

When the words fell, Xia Tuo pondered for a moment, and then said, "Giant, Juan, and Wolf, you take some of the young people to the Yuanzhu Tribe to hide temporarily. ”
