Chapter Seventy-Eight: The Law of Extorting Confessions from Food
Chen Chao and the others also noticed this, and several strong men from the Tianyuan tribe made eye contact with each other. These few, weren't they dead ducks with hard mouths just now, and they didn't say anything?!
"Wu, if you're hungry, bring each brother a bowl of fish soup." Chen Chao thought for a while, and then said, "There is also a bowl of pork soup for each person." ”
The little old man with the horns of the sheep understood that just now these people had made face to him, and he didn't open his mouth to ask whether he was alive or dead, which caused him to lose face in front of so many people!
To know who he is? He's a tribal witch! This made his face a little unbearable!
Hmph, it just so happens that he can't find a way to fix them!
The little old man took out his four old followers and took out twenty pottery bowls in the tribe, and twenty soup spoons were also taken out to use with pottery bowls.
When these five savages saw the small stone basin in the hands of the little old man and his old followers, they were still a little disdainful, cut, what is the use of such a small stone basin?!
There is not enough water for a tribe to drink at night!
When they saw ten bowls of pork stewed chestnut soup brought up first, all ten eyes were straight!
The nose kept twitching, and the 'gurgling' sound from their stomachs was louder, and to their own ears, it was hundreds of times louder than the sound of thunder on a rainy day.
The little old man with the horns of the sheep first gave Chen Chao and the other four strong men a bowl, of course, the little children and the old followers were not missing.
In this way, the ten people of the Tianyuan tribe drank the pork stewed chestnut soup in front of these five 'captives', and from time to time scooped up a large piece of pork and feasted on it.
If you get tired of eating pork, you can also use a spoon to scoop up the salty chestnuts to relieve the greasy.
If you eat chestnuts too dry, you can take a big bite of soup with a clay bowl.
Moreover, the soup of the Tianyuan tribe is salted, and salt is the first of all flavors, which can not only be antiseptic and sterilized, but also adjust the texture of the raw materials and increase the crispness and tenderness of the raw materials.
All in all, it's a delicious buff++++
Drink this bowl of pork stewed chestnut soup, warm your stomach and heart! The adults and children of the Tianyuan tribe were very comfortable.
They are comfortable, but some people are not comfortable!
Seeing the five savages in front of him swallowing desperately, Chen Chao said hello to Wu and asked him to ask the previous question again. In order to facilitate their communication, Chen Chao also loosened the rope for one of them.
But who knew that this group of people was still dead ducks with hard mouths, and the wild man who could move freely except for turning his head and swallowing desperately, it was Ula Ullah who said something that Chen Chao couldn't understand.
The little old man understood a little, but he wasn't sure yet. But I'm sure there's the word 'chief' in it, so if there's something wrong with it, you can ask our chief, and our chief is around here.
With that, the wild man stopped talking. Chen Chao didn't have anything better, so he had to have people tie him up again.
Putting aside the clay bowl that had finished drinking the pork stew and chestnut soup, the little old man asked his old attendants to bring the fish soup again.
As for why you don't have to put the bowl of pork soup, isn't it afraid of the smell~
Can the smelly stuff be delicious~
Chen Chao didn't drink the fish soup in a hurry, but walked around under the noses of the five savages with a pottery bowl, until he heard the drumming sound in the stomachs of the five savages, and Chen Chao began to drink the fish soup 'gurgling'.
Now the stomachs of the five savages were even hungrier, and the hunger gripped them as if they were scratching their livers.
If they hadn't heard it so closely, they thought they could still hold on.
Not now, if they weren't with their hands tied behind their backs, they would probably rush up and start snatching.
They have already begun to regret why they didn't tell the truth to these people in the first place, saying that they were very short of food, very short of animal skins, and the whole tribe was going to starve to death and freeze to death!
Now they had remorse, but the richly dressed old man and the dignified-looking man no longer bothered them.
These people tasted the most delicious food in the world in front of them!
And the main thing is that the old people who can't hunt anymore and the useless little kids have something to eat! Whatever those adults ate just now, they ate!
You know, in their grass tribe, the old people who can no longer hunt will be abandoned!
And the useless little kids, generally speaking, it's not that they don't know that the little kids will grow up. But with them, they can't afford to raise them, and the little children don't grow up to a certain age, so they almost just eat without vomiting, and they eat a lot.
And having a child is not so cost-effective for their tribe for the time being. Not to mention the high mortality rate of children, more often than not, the woman who has been involved in childbirth may also die.
Although they also know that it is better to have more children. However, the situation in their tribe did not allow them to take a woman who could already do a lot of work and exchange it for one or more babies who were waiting to be fed.
That's why the population composition of their tribe is so deformed, almost all of them are men and women in their prime, there are no old people, and only the leader and the witch each have one little child.
When they abandon the old men who can no longer hunt, are they not afraid?
No, they are afraid to die!
I'm afraid that I will be abandoned when I get old!
But what's the solution? Tribes have always been like this! The old man is useless, not only can he no longer hunt for the tribe, but he also has to eat an extra grain every day.
When these five savages saw that there were old people in this tribe, they were extremely surprised and envious.
This means that their food reserves are very abundant, rich enough to feed and dress these useless people as they please.
They've seen these old people and little kids dressed casually, and now they've seen them eat whatever they want.
Maybe it wasn't enough to break down their psychological defenses, but when they saw the old men come up with a small stone basin again.
The last straw that broke the camel's back finally appeared, when the leader of the tribe took the stone basin from the old man's hand, brought it to them, and asked them with a gesture if they would like to join the tribe.
They collapsed, nodding frantically.
They were willing, and they even prayed to join the tribe.
But the leader of the tribe took the small stone basin away again, and told them with a gesture that they could only eat and join the tribe only by answering the questions.
And the temptation of food is powerful, the temptation of a good life is powerful. After Chen Chao showed them a wave of the hard and soft power of the tribe, these savages finally loosened and began to take the initiative to cooperate with the little old man's inquiry.
After a long and arduous inquiry, and after the half-baked translation of the little old man, Chen Chao finally had a general understanding of the situation.
It turned out that this was a grass tribe far away from here, and they lived near a small pasture. It took three sunsets to get here.
As for why I came here, it was because when I was hunting in the mountains before, I found that there was very strange black smoke coming out of this side every day.
It is suspected that there is something like a wildfire, and their tribe is running out of food. But they were afraid that if the hunting party brought back the meat, the people of the tribe would starve to death. So they migrated to a place where there was black smoke to eat.
Then when I came here, the black smoke was gone. Their leader sent them out first to find out where the black smoke was before, and if they couldn't see it, they could smell it with their noses, and the place where the black smoke was emitting would smell very fragrant meat.
The leader of the grass tribe also deliberately emphasized the definition of very fragrant, saying that it was a completely different fragrance from the raw meat they ate.
But they walked for most of the day, and they didn't see any black smoke or smell of meat. He rested around here for a while, and saw a child with animal skins, and two of them.
They waited for a while, and saw that there were no adults around. I had a little bad idea, and I wanted to snatch the animal skin from the child's body and run. When the time comes, they will run back to the tribe, and others will not do anything with them when they see that so many people have come to their tribe.
I just didn't expect that there were so many people here, and if they knew, they would never have done it.
