Chapter Thirty-Eight: Collecting Leaves

Hearing this, the strong man put away the sharp energy just now, but his frowning brows did not decrease in the slightest, and he pointed towards the corpse Nunu mouth, and motioned for his two clansmen to come forward to check.

The two men stepped forward, peeled off the animal skin on the corpse, examined the corpse carefully, and shook their heads at the strong man.

The strong man frowned, with a guilty look on his face, he said to Ye Feng and them: "I made a mistake, please forgive me!" His voice was slow and deep, and his attitude was sincere.

Ye Feng waved his hand magnificently, not caring about this matter at all, and said: "It's okay, he found it near our tribe, how can you let a big living person run so far and lose his life?" โ€

The strong man sighed heavily and said: "It's not this damn winter, our winter food is completely insufficient, there are more than 50 people in our tribe, but the food is only two as heavy as me, it is not enough to eat, that is, we have to go out to find food, we don't listen to what we say, so he secretly went out one night." The sun rose several times, but he didn't come back, so we assumed he was dead. โ€

"Our hearts ache every time we think of his body being torn by wild beasts, we don't expect ...... I didn't expect you to send his body back, we are really ......" Speaking of this, the voice of this eight-foot-tall strong man was choked up a little.

Ye Feng smiled faintly and said, "It's okay, it's just a gesture, we are all human beings, so we should help each other, oh yes, you are very short of food, right?" โ€

The strong man nodded and said, "Yes, in order to survive the winter, we usually eat very little, and we are not full at all after the snow. โ€

Ye Feng sighed, and he said to the strong man: "Our tribe still has a lot of food, we can give some, then you can survive the winter safely!" โ€

The strong man's lips immediately opened into an O-shape, and the other people of the Leaf Tribe did the same, they didn't expect that the Xingyue Tribe would be so generous, in this era of food scarcity, let alone give it away, even borrow it, so they were very reluctant.

The strong man hesitated and said, "You won't have any conditions, right?" โ€

Of course, Ye Feng was not so kind, although he sympathized with them, and he also respected life very much, but the food of the tribe was not obtained for nothing, and the tribe would have complaints for nothing, which was not conducive to the unity of the tribe, so he nodded and said: "If you want to get this food, you must join our tribe." โ€

The strong man's face changed when he heard this, and he said, "If you want us to join your tribe, it is absolutely impossible!" โ€

Ye Feng was not annoyed when he saw the rejection, he said lightly: "It depends on you whether to add it or not, I didn't force you, if you add it, you can get food and continue to live, if you don't add it, then you will starve to death in this winter." โ€

The strong man's original firmness became cramped after hearing this, and he said weakly: "However, after joining your tribe, our tribe will not exist, and after we die, our ancestors will not forgive us, and our gods will not forgive us, and they will definitely punish us." โ€

Ye Feng didn't think of this, ignoring that primitive people should be loyal to their ancestors and gods, which is a bit tricky.

He paced back and forth, his brows twisted into a Sichuan shape, his left hand holding his chest, his right hand supporting his chin, and thinking about a solution.

"Ye Feng! Ye Feng! Aren't you usually quite clever, why can't you think of this point? Ye Feng said to himself, and suddenly, he had a flash of inspiration and said excitedly: "Yes, I can use my bloodline to inherit." โ€

He hurriedly said to the strong man: "We can do this, after you join our tribe, the gods you believe in will not change, and your tribe can be passed on through blood, which means that your tribe is still there, so that your ancestors will not blame." โ€

The strong man nodded, and then thought of another question: "Although our tribe can be passed down like this, after a long time, how can we distinguish your tribe from our tribe?" โ€

Ye Feng had already thought of the answer to this, he thought of the bloodline inheritance, and naturally thought of the surname, he said to the strong man: "After our tribe is integrated, one more word can be added in front of each person's name in the future." He suddenly thought that there were no words in this era, and immediately changed his words: "It is to add one or two more sounds, and this sound is the surname." The surname can be passed down from generation to generation, as long as people hear that surname, they know which tribe he belongs to, and this surname, only this tribe can be used, if someone uses the surname of someone else's tribe, it is a rebellion against their own tribe, and they will be punished by the gods of their own tribe! There is no need to be afraid that someone will use their surname to blend into this tribe. โ€

The idea was so novel that there was a lot of talk about it, and the otherwise quiet snow scene became bustling like a wet market.

The Leaf Tribe talked about for a long time, and finally when Ye Feng was so cold that he wanted to lose his temper, the strong man showed their attitude.

"We're willing to join the Surname Yue tribe, but that letter must be thought of by ourselves."

Ye Feng nodded, the other party's request was not excessive, let them take a surname as soon as possible, and rush back to the Xingyue tribe when they were done.

The Leaf Tribe was talking for a long time, and at that time it finally spoke: "Our tribe is surnamed 'Ye'!" โ€

Ye Feng was stunned for a moment, and hurriedly waved his hand and said, "No, no!" I am also surnamed Ye, if your surname is Ye, then I will not be a member of your tribe. โ€

The Leaf Tribe scratched his head embarrassedly, turned around and began to discuss his surname again.

After a long time, they finally discussed, and the strong man said slowly: "Didn't you say that there can be two syllables, and our surname is 'Ye Yang'!" โ€

Ye Yang is an ancient compound surname, and the pronunciation was originally shรจ yang. For example, the well-known idiom "Ye Gong Hao Long" was originally called "shรจ Gong Hao Long". Since there is no such surname nowadays, the pronunciation of "Ye" has been unified into "yรจ".

Ye Feng didn't expect them to move out the ancient surnames, he was very curious about how they took them out, and hurriedly asked, "Ye Yang?" How did you come up with the idea? โ€

The strong man replied: "'Ye' is taken from the name of our tribe, it is our belief, and 'Yang' is the sun in the sky. โ€

The corners of Ye Feng's mouth twitched, he didn't expect that the brain hole of primitive people was so big, and he could pull two unrelated things together.

Since the reality has been chosen, the Leaf Tribe naturally has no reason not to join, so Ye Feng said to them: "You guys pack up your things first, and then we can go to the Xingyue Tribe." โ€
