Rumble!

It was like a thunderbolt that exploded above the warehouse, and he turned pale and trembling, and sat down on the ground, his eyes glazed in disbelief at the news he had just heard.

Ding Qi stabilized his body, closed his eyes, took a deep breath, opened them again, and a fine light flashed. Pulling his arm away from Ben's hand, he said to the rabbit in a tone of non-questioning:

"As I said, don't rush. Take a breath and elaborate. ”

The rabbit was intimidated by Ding Qi's momentum and did not dare to say anything. But the weasel next to him saw the clue, pulled the rabbit, bowed deeply to Ding Qi, and said slowly:

"Chief, four days ago, we went out hunting under the leadership of Captain Rat, and came across a man riding a yellow mare who was besieged by jackals. We immediately stepped forward to rescue him, this man was named Mao Tou, who had been following the Blue Tiger Leader to participate in the exchange event.

I met this guy last time when we Rats accompanied you to an exchange meeting. Moreover, we have also seen that yellow horse, and it is indeed the horse you gave to the leader of the Blue Tiger. ”

The weasel stopped at this point, organized the language and continued:

"Captain Rat doesn't remember him, but I can confirm his identity first-hand. Mao Tou knew us, and he told us the news that the Blue Tiger Leader was killed by the three major tribes as soon as he was rescued. Captain Rat then arranged for the two of us to set off immediately and rush back to report to you. ”

"In addition, from the bronze knife he carried, we can also confirm that he is a member of the Li tribe, this news will not be wrong! According to Captain Rat's previous arrangement, he should be about to reach the Force Tribe. ”

The weasel finally reported the matter, added his own judgment, and combined with the previous arrangement of the rat, estimated the itinerary of their captain.

Ding Qi nodded, his eyes flashing, he was very satisfied with the performance of the yellow rat, and he was also thinking about the motive for the Blue Tiger to be killed. However, apparently this was not the time to think about it, he patted the two of them on the shoulder and comforted:

"Very good, you two are doing a great job, Ben, you arrange for people to let them both have a good rest. They must have been exhausted after four days of running. ”

After saying that, he turned his head to look at Cang, who had come over with a guilty face, and shook his head, signaling that he didn't need to speak. The elders were then summoned to introduce the seven tribal leaders who had just arrived at the Ding tribe, and the Bucks elders arranged their reception.

The five elders were much more experienced than him in the matter of reception. Although at this moment, he also wanted to sit down with the seven tribes and chat and learn about their customs and customs, but it was obvious that the affairs of the Blue Tiger Leader and the Li tribe were the big deals.

After dealing with the affairs of the seven tribes, Ding Qi took the two elders of Goshawk and Shang, Ben and Cang, back to the cabin and listened to Cang's most detailed report.

"It's all my fault, if I insisted on taking the Blue Tiger Leader back to the tribe with us, or sending them back, none of this would have happened."

Kura will report everything that happened in the exchange field, and no information was omitted. Especially in the face of the provocation of the three major tribes, the decisions and disposal measures made by themselves were explained in detail.

Ding Qi listened to Cang's report, combined with the information brought back by the two weasels before, and basically straightened out the murder of the Blue Tiger leader. Although I don't know who is in charge of all this, it is inseparable from these three tribes.

The leader of the Blue Tiger is Ding Qi's first friend when he came to this primitive society, and yes, it's the word friend!

Whether it's a stag or a deer, they're all family, and Naben treats him as his brother. As for the rest of the people who joined the tribe, that's not to mention, the ones who ate a pot of rice.

And the leader of the Blue Tiger is the only friend at present.

They communicated a lot in private, and the leader of the Blue Tiger told Ding Qi a lot about the rumors between the tribes and the interests between the leaders

Affair. And his insight into the primitive world, his own values for tribes and tribes.

Although he doesn't know what values are, Ding Qi is a good listener and helps Blue Tiger to summarize his knowledge, his knowledge of the world, and his knowledge of the laws.

Ding Qi taught him about exchange and trade, defined his identity as a businessman, taught him how to conduct transactions, and entered the concept of a medium of exchange into Blue Tiger's mind.

Moreover, the leader of the Blue Tiger popularized the value of weighing and weighing in Ding Qi's lecture on weights and measures. Although this tool has not yet been called, crude scales and weights have been made and promoted, and the tribes are very satisfied with this fair trade tool, which has also increased the enthusiasm and scale of inter-tribe trade to a certain extent.

Another thing, the leader of the Blue Tiger had secretly stated that their tribe wanted to join the Ding tribe, and this idea was also supported by the healer. It's just that because of the changes that have happened in their tribe, they suspect that there are external forces interfering with the tribe, so they don't dare to join the Ding tribe easily.

This involves tribal secrets, and the fact that the Blue Tiger Leader can tell Ding Qi is enough to show that the Blue Tiger Leader treats Ding Qi as a friend and as his own person.

Even putting aside the identity of a friend, the value of the strategic material of the Li tribe alone is enough for Ding Qi to make friends with each other.

Ding Qi is not a person who forgets profit and is desperate for money, he has his own code of conduct.

Now that this is happening, Tinch has to show that he is a friend.

"Cang, these things have nothing to do with you. You are the person in charge of this exchange meeting, and you have done a very good job. As old friends of the Force Tribe, we must show that we stand as friends. When this happens to the Li tribe, we must lend a helping hand to protect them from the persecution of the hostile tribes. ”

Ding Qi first comforted Ibancang, he was actually the most guilty person in the incident of the killing of the blue tiger. But he did well enough that there was no need to put him in pain on his back any longer.

"Next, I have to work hard for the two elders and Cang to go out. Originally, I wanted Ben to go to the Li tribe on behalf of the Ding tribe to express condolences. But now our city construction is at a critical moment, and it is inseparable from him. Therefore, the two elders are the highest representatives of the Ding tribe, and they brought a total of two classes of the red scorpion and the Ling of the Qiu tribe, and one person and two horses accompanied the protection, and rushed to the Li tribe. Everything was arranged by the two elders, Goshawk and Shang. ”

Ding Qi pressed Ben, who wanted to go out on behalf of the tribe, on his seat, and still sent Cang to protect the two tribal elders to condole. There are two elders here, which is enough for the Li tribe to see that the Ding tribe attaches great importance to them.

Moreover, the Cang Zili tribe, although they were slaves, lived there for a long time.

"According to what the yellow rat said, the rat should be on its way to the Force tribe at this moment. The duty of the two elders is to condole and persuade their doctors and witches to join the Ding tribe, so that they can avenge their Blue Tiger leader, find out the enemies behind the harm they have been inflicting, and become a truly free tribe.

Moreover, only when I joined the Ding tribe would I tell them how to refine coarse salt. ”

Ding Qi turned to the warehouse again:

"Cang, your duty is to protect the people of the Li tribe from coming, even if you all die in battle, you must ensure that every person from the Li tribe reaches the Ding tribe safely. When the Li tribe joins, I will hold a grand founding ceremony and let them also be witnesses to this historic moment! ”

Ding Qi said his arrangement in one breath, and ordered Cang to protect the people of the Haoli tribe. He felt that protecting the other party's family was the best way to treat his friend, not to mention that this friend and his tribe were crucial to the development of the Ding tribe and the development of the entire primitive society.

Salt is one of the keys to human civilization and society.

"Prepare now, and set off in half an hour! Meeting! ”

Everyone is out of the water,

Quickly implement Dingqi's request. Especially for them, they haven't rested for an hour, and they have to prepare to set off again, which is a test for their body and mind.

As for Ding Qi's arrangement for Ling of the original Shang tribe to set off with a squad of warriors, it was also to train them. Especially after Ding Qi knew that the bow and arrow of the Shang tribe was invented by Ling, he was even more impressed by him. Carefully teach Ling her archery skills and improve his tactical skills.

Ding Qi knows how useful a sniper is on the battlefield, although in the current primitive society, there will be no people who can threaten his tribe, but it is always better to be prepared.

It's called not fighting an unprepared battle!

Ding Qi didn't go out, he wanted to be alone for a while. The voice and smile of the leader of the Blue Tiger appeared from time to time, making him miss this friend very much.

But before he could be quiet for long, the crisp copper sound of the alarm sounded again!

A group of warriors on duty in the tribe rode eastward to meet the group of men and horses that came along the lake.

It wasn't long before Moo was back in front of the cabin of the leader of the tribe.

It was only before he entered the courtyard that he saw Cang leading two squads of soldiers, one man and two horses, heading towards the west. They didn't even have time to say hello to Moo before they hurried away.

"Chief, moo is back!"

Standing in front of the wooden house with a bamboo basket on his back, Mobi respectfully saluted Ding Qi and said to Ding Qi in a loud voice.

Seeing Moo come back, Ding Qi barely held up a smile, patted the animal skin cushion beside him, and said to Moo:

"Moo is back? Look at your complexion! Come, sit here, and tell me what you have gained from your eastward journey. ”

Ever since Tinch rescued Moo from Hope Poe and freed his people, he has always regarded Tinch as his master. It's just that Ding Qi never wants his own people to be like this, and only lets him call himself the leader, so Moo respects this leader more and more.

Seeing that Ding Qi was in a slightly better mood, Moo quickly took down the back basket behind him, knelt on the animal skin, took out a roll of rope from it, and held it to Ding Qi with both hands.

Ding Qi was a little surprised, and he didn't know what he meant by taking out a roll of rope.

Seeing that Ding Qi was puzzled, Moo hurriedly said:

"Chief, this is a tribe I met far east of the Yuan Yu tribe, named Youchao. They all lived in trees, and the ropes they used to bind their nests were not only made by themselves, but also from the Ma tribe. ”

Moo took one of the ropes with both hands and tugged hard twice, and the rope made a rattling sound, showing that the rope was very tough and strong.

Ding Qi's eyes lit up, and he understood that this was to show that this kind of rope was stronger and more durable than the rope made by his own tribe.

Soon, Ding Qi captured a key word: Ma tribe!

"Wait, moo, are you saying that this rope was made by someone from the Ma tribe?"

Ding Qi was a little excited, and hurriedly asked.

"Well, it should be, the leader of the Youchao tribe said that he was exchanged from the Ma tribe, saying that they have a lot of this kind of rope there, and they rely on rubbing ropes to exchange animal skins and food for the surrounding tribes."

Receiving Moo's affirmative reply, Tinch's mood became excited.

If this hemp tribe is really a tribe that grows or uses hemp, whether it is green hemp, ramie or hemp, it will bring great changes to the life of the tribe. Probably the biggest change is the clothes.

Although he had some clothes that he brought with him when he crossed over, Ding Qi didn't dare to wear them out most of the time. Underwear and underwear are fine, like camouflage uniforms, but they can't be worn outside, which will arouse great curiosity among primitive humans. At that point, I won't be able to explain where I got this particular garment.

Therefore, in order to be like everyone else, Ding Qi usually wears animal skin clothes.
