Chapter 17 Deals

So, before the Giant Tree Tribe could act, the envoy of the Viper Tribe had already arrived.

This time, they brought another two hundred fighters. However, except for the fifty soldiers of the headquarters, most of them were slave soldiers.

Therefore, the lord's fangs are also more restrained. There was no provocation, and there was no clamour. Just let the two subordinates go to the giant tree to deliver the message, and ask them to negotiate next to the black boulder not far from the giant tree tribe.

And what about the Giant Tree Tribe? The messenger was detained first, and then the old witch doctor, tamper, bamboo tiger, and eye began to discuss again.

The old witch doctor who lived into a human spirit was more suspicious in this regard, believing that this was a trap and should not be passed. Taking a step back, even if they were to negotiate, they should decide the location.

This cautious view is naturally supported by an already well-established rammer.

The location of the negotiation was changed to the camp of the Giant Tree Tribe, and only the lord of the Viper Tribe, Tooth, was allowed to bring ten followers to negotiate.

But after the news was transmitted, Changfang vetoed it without thinking about it.

Just as the Giant Tree Tribe is afraid of the Viper Tribe's traps, the Fangs are equally afraid of the Giant Tree Tribe's traps.

And the reason why he had to book the place of the negotiation in advance was really to set a trap. As a result, Fangs did not dare to venture into the Giant Tree Tribe even more.

Therefore, it took three days for the messenger to finally agree on a mutually satisfactory method of meeting.

It was on a meadow four kilometers west of the Giant Tree Tribe. The terrain is open, and no one can set up ambushes and traps, just enough for the two distrustful parties to meet.

In this way, when the time agreed between the two sides, the warriors of the Giant Tree Tribe from the east and the warriors of the Viper Tribe from the west met here.

"Those deserters really didn't lie, this so-called giant tree tribe really has "giants"!" The long fangs who came from afar muttered, and their faces looked a lot more solemn.

A two-meter-tall person is a rare species in this day and age. The Viper Tribe has a population of more than 8,000, but it can't find anyone who is more than 1.9 meters tall. Now it is reasonable to regard the ramming and bamboo tigers as giants.

However, at this time, compared to him, tamping and bamboo tiger are not easy.

After torture and questioning of those captives, they had already figured out the details of the Viper Tribe and understood the prosperity and strength of the Viper Tribe.

Even if the Viper Tribe came to negotiate this time and only brought two hundred people, they did not dare to underestimate it.

In this way, the two cautious sides gradually led the warriors closer, and when they reached a certain distance, the lord of the Viper Tribe, Fang, and the Giant Tree Tribe, each raised their hands high.

He said that he had no weapons in his hands and no malice in his own hands.

Then they walked towards each other alone, and then stopped tacitly when they were about five meters away from each other.

"I am a descendant of Moka, the king of vipers, the son of Hada, the younger brother of Ukun, and the lord of the Viper tribe, Fang!"

"Servant of the gods of the Giant Tree Tribe, ram!"

The two sides first solemnly identified themselves. Then, Changfang raised his head slightly to look at the two-meter-tall giant man opposite, and he cut straight to the point: "We didn't want to be your enemy, but we were deceived by the despicable Black Snake tribe and did the wrong thing.

Now, if you release my people, we will give you all the women, children, and elders of the Black Snake tribe who remain in our tribe. ”

The words of the teething seem to be very sincere.

But Tam knew that all the women of the Black Snake Tribe now only added up to more than a hundred, which was not as large as the number of captured Viper Tribe warriors.

The deal is simply unfair.

So he shook his head and said in a tough tone: "We don't need children and old people. We have one hundred and twenty of your captives, one captive for one young woman. And you will give us fifty young men who can do the work as the price for your offense against us!"

"No, that's not fair!" Fangs refused, but he didn't think about it, "One hundred and twenty young women, that's fine. But other than that, we will never pay anything else.

We have come with sincerity, and if you know the strength of our Viper Tribe, you should be satisfied. ”

"Ha, is that a threat? If so, there's nothing to say. Wait for the corpses of your people, devotees of the god of the giant tree, and fear war!"

He put down his words in a tough tone and turned around to leave.

This made the face of the longtooth on the other side change greatly, and he remembered his brother's repeated orders to him before leaving, so he had to compromise: "Okay, okay." You won, and we promised.

Five days later, it's still trading here. Release our people, and we will fulfill your demands. ”

"Yes!"

This was the end of the conversation between the two sides, and then they led their troops back. So taking advantage of this opportunity, Geralt, the white wolf in the soul form, quietly followed behind Fang.

But it is to see how sincere these people are, and whether they will play any tricks.

But the result after that surprised Liang Tian very much, the powerful Viper Tribe really didn't plan to engage in any conspiracy this time. After returning to the temporary camp, Lord Tooth sent people to Moka to prepare slaves for trading.

"It seems that they really care about the lives of these people!"

muttered secretly, this kind of performance is also reasonable.

As can be seen from the self-introduction of the fangs, the Viper Tribe is clearly a blood-oriented tribe. Therefore, the number of their slaves far exceeds the number of their clansmen, and the safety of their lives is naturally more precious than that of slaves.

What's more, these one hundred and twenty clansmen are all off-duty warriors who have experienced several battles, and they belong to the backbone of the tribe, and their lives are naturally more precious.

So he returned to the tribe, and Liang Tian waited while making a new arrangement.

It wasn't until five days later, when the agreed time for the deal arrived, that Geralt in his soul form got up and stepped forward again, secretly following behind the tribal warriors and the captives.

"We have brought all the slaves you need. If you want to make a deal, release our people quickly. ”

Still in the same meadow, the lord Fangs pointed at the male and female slaves who were tied up with ropes, and demanded that they release the captives.

But here, Tam who was speaking on behalf of the Giant Tree Tribe still said in a strong tone that the fifty young men must be paid to them first, and then the transaction should be made at the same time.

Long Fang had no choice but to agree.

A full fifty young male ** subordinates were driven by the warriors of the Viper Tribe with the weapons in their hands, and came to the side of the Giant Tree Tribe with their hands.

"Hurry, look at these people!"

The slaves were driven to squat and sit together with sticks. The one hundred and twenty captives who were tied together with ropes and wooden sticks were also brought out by the bamboo tiger.

These sturdy warriors were now all yellow-skinned and thin, and they had not had enough to eat since the day they were captured. And in order to prevent future troubles, the Giant Tree Tribe also cut off the right thumb of every Viper Tribe captive at the suggestion of the old witch doctor.

Let every captive become a waste on the battlefield.

Therefore, when he saw these clansmen, Fangs couldn't help but be furious, "You vicious monsters, you dare to do this!"

"What, do you want to terminate the transaction?"

There is no fear on the face. The angry Fangs couldn't wait to throw the man across the other side into their tribe's snake pit, where they were surrounded by hundreds of poisonous snakes and bitten to death.

But when he turned his head to look at the miserable and pitiful clansmen who longed to survive, he had no choice but to hold back his anger and let the deal continue!

And just like that, after five minutes, the Giant Tree Tribe finally got what they wanted.

One hundred and twenty young women, as long as there is enough food, let the men of the Giant Tree tribe work harder. Then in a year, the Giant Tree Tribe will usher in a baby boom, and in twenty years, the population of the entire Giant Tree Tribe will double or even several times.

Thinking of this, Liang Tian couldn't help but smile on his face.

Although twenty years is still too long, the first step in the development and growth of the giant tree tribe has finally been taken.
