Chapter 40: Gathering Day
Because yesterday I heard Uncle Long say that today is the tribe's collection day, so Ling Fei got up early, yesterday she grabbed Long Zhan and went up the mountain to pick a lot of taro and did not hunt, the only last few pieces of meat were also given to Long Zhan as dinner, last night and this morning's meal was roasted taro, it may be that it is rare to eat food other than barbecue, the four sizes of the Long family do not have a nasty look, but Long Tian was sad for a long time because he ate a black fruit with a bitter face, Ling Fei was amused by his rich expression, pinched his face, and said with a smile: " I told you that I had to taste it if it wasn't delicious, wait, I went to pick wild fruits today, and I will definitely get you more delicious food. β
"Okay." Long Tianxiao's eyes narrowed into a slit, like a little kitten begging for food.
Long Ming's position was changed to the place on the fire yesterday, and when she saw that she was leaving, she quickly stopped Ling Fei, "You are not in good health, don't be reckless, take as much as you can." In the past two days of contact, Long Tian also has a general understanding of Ling Fei, she is a very kind wonder girl, she is very attentive to her injuries, and she is also very concerned about Long Tian and Long Array, so he didn't treat Ling Fei like others.
Being cared for so much, Ling Fei felt happy in her heart, and replied with a smile: "I know, if you can't come back at noon, I will put the taro by the fire, and you can eat it at any time if you are hungry." With that, he waved his hand out of the tent.
There was no need to ask, and the flow of women from the tribe walked to the large square at the entrance of the tribe, and unexpectedly, the leader of the team turned out to be a very strong man. Ling Fei scanned the crowd twice before finding Bai Jiao, and quietly squeezed over to her ear and whispered, "Why did you run to such a remote place, let me find it." β
Bai Jiao was guarding Shi Lan all over, and was startled by the sudden voice, and only when she saw Ling Fei's face clearly did she hold her chest and exhale, "It's you, Ling Fei." Subconsciously looking in the direction of Shi Lan, Bai Jiao said in a voice that could only be heard by two people: "That taro is really delicious, thank you, Ling Fei." β
Ling Fei gently bumped her with her shoulder, "Don't be so polite, you didn't take care of me on the road." β
The two walked out side by side as they spoke, because there were many slaves on the road who had learned to weave baskets, and the baskets had also set off a big storm in the Flying Dragon Tribe, so when collecting this time, almost everyone had a straw basket, and some of them were transformed, Ling Fei saw that there was a girl with a thumb-thick straw rope on both sides of the basket as a hand, and it was quite like that, in fact, the convenience she enjoyed in her previous life came from the crystallization of the wisdom of her predecessors, and the wisdom of people is infinite, as long as you peep at the tip of the iceberg, They can delve into it.
After the tribal warriors repelled several waves of invading beasts, Ling Fei also understood why the collection needed those strong men to accompany them, the location of their collection was two kilometers in front of the tribe, the terrain was flat, the beasts were frequent, and each collection required the mobilization of more than thirty strong men for protection, and injuries were common, after this understanding, Ling Fei and Bai Jiao did not dare to be attached to the back, and quickly inserted into the crowd, who knows when a beast ran back.
The collection team came to a hollow and stopped, there were many wild fruit trees, but unfortunately the ripe ones were picked, and there were only some bad or raw ones left, since they came, they couldn't go back empty-handed, Ling Fei pulled Bai Jiao to the side of the tree to pick, but unfortunately he was stopped as soon as he took a step, and the one who stood in the way was a strong woman who was more than one meter seven, with a small nose and small eyes, and her facial features were very incompatible with her big face, Ling Fei didn't know it when she looked at it, but the person's face was obviously not very good.
Before Ling Fei could ask, the woman scolded, "Stay away from our slaves, where are you from, why have you never seen it." "The one I haven't seen must be the slave I just exchanged, the woman deliberately asked this just to humiliate her in public, watching her talk and laugh with the dead slave is not pleasing to the eye, and I don't know whose slave it is, so run around like this!
As soon as she heard this woman speak, Ling Fei knew that this person must be Bai Jiao's so-called hostess, as soon as she saw this
"Sister Shilan, this person is a slave exchanged for salt by Brother Long Zhan, but it is very precious, don't hurt it." There was a soft voice next to him, but it was uncomfortable to hear.
Ling Fei followed the voice and looked, it turned out to be the beauty who was blocking and ridiculing herself in the tribe, it seemed that the loss that day made her very unwilling, no, she came to provoke again.
"Qingle, this person is the slave of Long Zhanchang?" Shi Lan saw that Qingle's angry face softened a little, and pointed at Ling Fei and asked in disbelief, this slave looks too weak and average, and he really can't see where there is anything worth a beast skin salt.
"Well, that's right, Brother Long takes good care of her, and he doesn't even let her take things, what, why did you come out to collect it today, can you take those fruits?" The second half of Qingle's sentence was said to Ling Fei, the sour smell in it was really smelled from afar, the jealousy of women was really terrible, and she really suffered from an unwarranted disaster.
Long Zhan exchanged salt for slaves and was punished for not being able to share the salt, and the matter has been spread all over the tribe, and everyone is more concerned about what kind of slave Long Zhan, who has always hated women, has changed to than not being able to get salt, so after listening to the conversation here, they all gathered around, and they were very puzzled when they saw Ling Fei's thin and ordinary appearance, this slave is obviously underage, it is difficult to survive, why did Long Zhan change her.
Seeing everyone pointing at that hateful slave, Qingle felt a lot relieved, such a despicable slave was not worthy of Long Zhan, only she could be Long Zhan's wife.
Being regarded as a rival in love, Ling Fei felt very helpless, and had the heart to refute a few words but was afraid of implicating Bai Jiao, so she had to silently squeeze out of the crowd and find a remote place to minimize her sense of existence, but unfortunately she thought that she was hiding quite hidden, and there were still footsteps behind her, and Ling Fei, who was ready to fight back, turned around and was about to speak, but found that it was not the one who was looking for trouble nor Qingle, it seemed to be her neighbor brown soil, and it seemed that she had also sent salt to her family.
Brown Earth turned his head angrily at Ling Fei, and hurriedly smiled: "Don't be angry with those people who don't have long eyes, Long Zhan can change whoever he wants, and he doesn't use other people's prey, I came to you for business." β
For the people who helped her, Ling Fei kept it in her heart, and when she heard Brown Earth say this, she immediately forgot the unpleasantness just now, "If Aunt Brown Earth has anything, you can say it, as long as I can help, I will definitely help." β
Brown soil is a refreshing person, and said straight to the point: "My children don't want to eat these days, they have lost weight, yesterday I smelled the barbecue and felt very fragrant, I want to ask you how the meat is grilled, the taste is not the same as the usual barbecueγ»γ»γ»γ»γ»γ» "xh118."
