Volume 2 Playing with the Tribes Chapter 206 Infighting
"Artifact? Pottery? What is this? ”
The four of them were stunned when they heard this, but Shang Tu, the leader of the Houtu tribe, grasped the key information, and several other people also showed doubts on their faces, and gave Shui Yuan an inquiring expression.
"Yes, the artifact of fishing, it can catch a lot of fish at a time, and they are all big fish. As for pottery, it is something that is used to boil meat and boil water, and it can be used to cook meat, fish, etc. with water. As you have just felt, it tastes more delicious, especially for the toothless elderly and children, who can eat more without starving. ”
What Shui Yuan said aroused everyone's interest, and they all adjusted their sitting postures and listened carefully. The four of them understood that if the tribe had fishing artifacts like Shui Yuan said and the pottery in front of them, the tribe would be able to feed more people, and the tribe's strength would also be greatly expanded.
"Then where did these so-called artifacts and pottery come from?"
Once again, Shang Tu asked the key question.
The five people here are the warriors of their own tribe, and their hunting level and personal ability are second to none in the tribe, and their IQ is definitely below one person and above most people. Clever as they are, they would surely want to get this kind of thing that will be of great help to the tribe.
Seeing that he had attracted everyone's attention, Shui Yuan smiled lightly, did not answer, but asked everyone:
"Have you ever heard of the legend of the Aragami?"
"I've heard of it!"
Nan replied crisply.
"This legend has been around for a long time, and I haven't heard of any person or tribe having an Aragami!"
This is Shang Tu's answer.
"This legend is known to all tribes, especially the small tribes, who believe that it will allow more people to live a life free from hunger, cold, and prey. Isn't that nonsense?
When it snows, it won't be cold, and there are so many man-eating beasts outside, can it be dangerous? As for their small tribes, they really want to eat crazy. If it weren't for our big tribes giving them a chance, they would have died long ago. ”
After Yan finished speaking, he glanced at Shang Tu who was speaking, and seemed to be a little contemptuous. He has always looked down on those small tribes, and sometimes even those present look down on them.
Why? Because their Yanhuo tribe believes in the god of fire, their tribe's fire is the key to the survival of all tribes. The first fire of each tribe was the fire obtained from the Yanhuo tribe. Although some tribes learned to drill wood to make fire in the later period, in the eyes of the Yanhuo tribe, they were all small skills and not orthodox.
Which tribe saw that the Yanhuo tribe didn't bow its head and bow its waist and stammer? Although the strength of the tribe has declined in the past two years, especially after the world-destroying fire, they always have a sense of superiority.
And the strength of the Houtu tribe in the world-destroying fire has dropped by nearly half, from ranking first to the current fourth, and is looked down upon by the other four tribes, Yan naturally despises Houtu.
"Well, Yan has a point. Everyone has heard of Aragami, and I'm very interested in Aragami and the tribe he belongs to, and now that the leader of the water abyss has mentioned it again, then it is very likely that the artifact fishing nets and pottery you said are related to this Aragami, and it seems that things are not so simple! ”
Chijin also sees things thoroughly, but judging by his expression, he seems to know something.
Shui Yuan smiled slightly, gave a thumbs up, and said to Chijin:
"It's still the red gold brother who is powerful, find the key to the problem at once, admire!"
It was as if Mizubuchi had said this on purpose, pushing Chijin against the other three tribes.
The five tribes present were ranked fifth in terms of strength, the Aoki tribe was fifth, the Houtu tribe was fourth, the Blackwater tribe was third, the Yanhuo tribe was second, and the Ugin tribe was first. The five tribes are in a competitive position, and they all want to be number one. Whether overtly or covertly, the struggle has never stopped.
But in the face of interference from external forces, they will unite again
Unanimous to the outside world, trampling other small and medium-sized tribes under their feet.
"Alright, Shui Yuan, don't lift me up there, I don't know your mind yet. Hurry up and say it, right? ”
Chijin blocked him back with a direct sentence, which made Shui Yuan a little embarrassed, but he quickly changed, laughed, and covered up:
"Good! Chijin is right, this fishing artifact and the pottery used to cook meat are all from that mysterious Aragami, and this Aragami comes from a small tribe called the Ding tribe. Recently, it has developed rapidly, and this pottery was obtained from an exchange party they held some time ago. The fishing artifact, the fishing net, was exchanged by one of our subordinate tribes from the Ding tribe. ”
Speaking of this, Shui Yuan's mood fluctuated slightly, and he did not say the true source of the fishing net, but still pointed the finger at the Ding tribe.
"And what is the strength of this tribe?"
Shang Tu has a Chinese face, and his appearance is relatively calm.
Since this Ding tribe has entered everyone's eyes, then he is a piece of meat, and he always wants to eat more meat. But before eating, you still have to understand that there are not many bones in this piece of meat, and it is not good to clench your teeth. Out of caution, he still has to be sure of the strength of the other party.
Everyone else looked at it, Shui Yuan knew what they meant, and despised a few of them fiercely in his heart.
"Hmph, I really have a wolf heart, no wolf guts, and I started to coax before I got to the point?"
But Shui Yuan also thought about this in his heart, and he didn't dare to say it.
"The leader of the merchant land is still so cautious, it is worth learning from! If you want to talk about the population of this Ding tribe, there is not too much, and it is probably not the standard of medium-sized tribes, but the strength of small tribes is relatively strong. ”
"Strong? How strong can this small Ding tribe be, as long as there are no large tribes, the small and medium-sized tribes are a trembling quail in our eyes, and there is nothing to worry about. ”
Yan looked down on the small and medium-sized tribes as always, and directly interrupted the water abyss when he spoke. But if the leaders of the five tribes, including Shui Yuan, knew the current population of the Ding tribe, it is estimated that they would be stupid, and they would not have thought that the population of the Ding tribe would have already exceeded the minimum standard of a large tribe. The information provided by Shui Yuan is still the number of people of the Ding tribe at the exchange meeting some time ago.
Moreover, if you dare to let them know that a squad of warriors of the Ding tribe can kill fifty or sixty of them, I wonder if they will be scared to pee?
"Brother Yan, don't look down on this tribe. My brother Mizusawa led the Warriors of the Tribes to the Exchange Party, where a tournament was held, and in the end our Warriors were defeated by the men of their Tribe. ”
Yan was robbed of words by Shui Yuan just now, and he looked down on the strength of his tribe, which made him very embarrassed, and he was angry in his stomach. slapped his light brain, pointed the spearhead at Shui Yuan, and said angrily:
"Humph! I think the so-called warriors of your Blackwater tribe are all made of mud, and they will shatter when you touch them! Don't raise the morale of others to destroy your own prestige, your tribe can't beat it, it doesn't mean that our tribes can't beat it. ”
"You! Leader Yan, if you say that again, don't blame me for being unkind! ”
Shui Yuan was robbed of white by Yan for a while, and he was very angry in his heart, and he was about to turn his face immediately. If Ding Qi was here, he would have said it to their faces:
"It's no wonder you two don't quarrel, fire and water are incompatible! The tribes are mutually restrictive, and the names are also restricted! ”
Shui Yuan hoped that his words would arouse the attention of several other tribes to the Ding tribe, so that more people could be sent to destroy the Ding tribe and obtain the method of making fishing nets and pottery. Most of the people led by Mizusawa died, bringing great losses to the tribe, if those four tribes knew, the ranking of the Blackwater tribe might be ranked behind the Houtu tribe, and it would be a little stronger than the Aoki tribe.
The atmosphere was eerie, and Chijin sat there sneering, as if hoping that the two of them would fight. Nan and Shang Tu felt that their strength was weak, and they couldn't speak, so they sat there staring at them
The bonfire was silent. And Shui Yuan and Yan stood there angrily, glaring at each other, and if the other party moved, they would go up and fight desperately. No one went up to persuade them to fight, the two of them didn't fight, they didn't fight, there were no steps, and there was a big embarrassment and anger written on their faces!
At this moment, a hoarse voice sounded, a little old but very calm, which made people feel a little chill and a little warm.
"What are the two little dolls arguing about? Do you want me to spank? ”
As soon as the words fell, they saw an old man come to them with the help of two burly people. The hair was gray and thin, and there was a small beard on the chin, but the expression on his face that seemed to be smiling but not smiling made the five of them shiver in their hearts.
The person who came was none other than the doctor grandfather who terrified him in Mizusawa's eyes. And if the two burly guards in black animal skin skirts were seen by Mizusawa, he would know that the two halflings in his eyes were fake, but the light was too dim to see
The five of them hurriedly bowed to the old man, and shouted in unison:
"Grandpa Witch!"
With the water abyss under the steps, he hurriedly stepped forward, held the arm of the doctor witch grandfather with both hands, and let him sit on a piece of wood beside him.
In addition to Shui Yuan, the other four people knew how powerful the old man in front of them was, and there were legends about him in various tribes. When he was young, he had the ability to kill the wolf king and go into the water like a swimming snake, and he could smash the opponent's bones little by little when dealing with the enemy, which was terrifying. Moreover, he was also the god of water when the Black Water Tribe was strong, and everyone in Heishui Ze respected him. His story has been passed down for three generations, which makes everyone very jealous of the old man's strength, not to mention that there are two sturdy men around him, and his strength is even more extraordinary.
"You little dolls don't care about my old bones, and say hello to the tribesmen when you go back. This Ding tribe, or Aragami, needs to be taken seriously. Our five tribes are interdependent and help each other, and we need a few of you to work together at a critical time. It's hard to come to Heishuize this time, so you guys have a good time. ”
After speaking, the doctor witch of the Black Water Tribe, the former tribal warrior, and the water god on the Black Water Valley, with the support of two strong men, got up and returned to the tribe, which seemed to make people forget that the five of them were now on the side of the Black Water Valley, and there was still some distance from the tribe.
Everyone said yes one after another, and bent down to send the doctor to Grandpa Wu.
After such a small episode, several other people also survived, but Chijin still had some doubts on his face, as if he was thinking about why such an old person was still alive. In the primitive period, the average age of people was about twenty years old, and an old man who was nearly seventy years old should be such a long-lived and respectable person!
No longer quarrelling, Shui Yuan told everyone everything he knew about the Ding tribe, including the strength of the tribesmen and the weapons used.
"This Ding tribe uses a weapon called a bow, which can attack people or prey from great distances. I've arranged for someone to start copying this weapon, and it works well, and it can shoot some small animals from a distance of a dozen paces. It's just that it's a bit troublesome to make, and so far I've only made a dozen of them. ”
After Shui Yuan finished speaking, he asked people to bring a wooden bow and an arrow and show them to everyone, but the expressions on their faces when they saw the bow and arrow were different.
The two leaders, Aoki and Yanhuo, were very surprised to see the bow and arrow, and kept sighing why there was such a magical weapon. The two leaders of the Houtu and Ugin tribes were relatively calm, without the sense of surprise at seeing something new, as if they had already seen this weapon. It's just that there is a little bit of shock in the eyes of the two.
In fact, from the point of view of Qiu Neng's invention of the bow as a hunting tool, there is also a great possibility that other tribes also possess this kind of weapon. Just like Ding Qi thought of the question about the butterfly effect, will his crossing into this world also speed up the development process of the primitive world?
Quite possibly!
