Chapter 4: The Barbarians

Every fishing Shaba people, from birth to death, spent most of their time in the seawater, and their lives were hard.

Because the shaba people who punctured their eardrums have been active under the sea water for a long time, their brains have been subjected to the pressure of huge sea water for a long time, and when they are old, because of the degeneration of the brain, this hidden disease may erupt in a concentrated manner, making them feel that they are in pain.

The Shakeba people can live past 60 years old, even if it is a very long lifespan, most of them are in their 40s, or even 30s, they may die of aging, and frequent activities on the bottom of the sea, drowning, things happen from time to time.

And now because they are in the center of the Qingula Mountains in Xia Hua Kingdom, all kinds of mysterious substances that are beneficial to life nourish the people of the Shaoba tribe, so that their physique and life span have been greatly improved compared to before. This is a pie-in-the-sky good thing for the Shaoba people.

The government of Xia Huaguo also gave them a large number of modern diving equipment and shotguns because of the hard work of the Shaoba people.

But the Shaba people refused, believing that they were the true Shaba people by maintaining the way of life inherited from their ancestors and using pure handiwork.

The tribesmen of the Shaba tribe gathered in this area, there are thousands of tribesmen, and these tribesmen usually work from sunrise to sunset, all under the jurisdiction of a patriarch and several clan elders, living in peace and tranquility.

The only common building of the Shakeba is a rudimentary council hall built on the shallow water, a simple escalator made of wooden planks, which sways and creaks as if it could collapse at any moment.

Usually it's very quiet here, and only when something big happens in the Shaoba tribe is the council hall full of people.

Shake people have an optimistic attitude towards life and never worry about their livelihood. They go out to work in the morning and return when the sun sets over the beach. When night falls, they light bonfires on the beach, dance to the deafening sound of drums, dance the most primitive and rough dances, sip their own wine made using the most primitive methods, and barbecue the seafood they have just caught by hand from the seawater.

As an ancient nation, the Shaoba people, and the Xiahua people, the main ethnic group in Xiahua, are also the same branch as Lianli, have a common ancestor, and have similar blood flowing in their veins.

It's just that the Shaba people have always maintained an ancient way of life, and the scale of the ethnic group is relatively small, and there are habits of intermarriage within the Shaba people, so the development of the Shaba people has been limited.

The Shaba people live a hard life, and women are born with a lack of resistance to this almost barbaric way of life, so the Shaba people are always more men than women, and many Shaba men are lonely all their lives.

It is also for this reason that the Shaoba people have also maintained a custom of robbing marriages, and as long as any young woman of a foreign race is seen by a Shaoba man, they will snatch it back to the clan for a simple wedding.

It is also because of this custom that the Hasa, Niya, and Sami people who migrated over the Panlong River area at about a short time were all annexed by the Shaoba people in a short period of time, which has to be said to be a tragedy.

Compared with the Shakeba people, the population base of other ethnic groups is even smaller, and in the face of the swarming, barefoot and shirtless army of the Shakeba people, they are not opponents at all.

The government of Xia Huaguo also wanted to intervene in the barbaric annexation of other ethnic groups by the Shaoba people, but the Shaoba people acted too quickly, so that before the government could mediate, several ethnic groups were already extinct.

This made Xia Huaguo's government representatives also whimper. Several ethnic minorities with a long heritage did not expect to be wiped out in this way, which is really a sigh.

Fortunately, the Shaoba tribe only annexed and did not kill anyone, so the Xia Huaguo government was not able to interfere too much.

......

Although the Shaoba people are not a super family, they are relatively famous in the sparsely populated area of Panlongjiang.

Not only is there a relatively stable and dense population in this area of the Panlong River, but it is also a permanent population, and compared with the danger level of this area, the existence of permanent residents will always seem very alternative and different.

It is precisely because of the danger that this side of the Panlong River is full of dangers, the Shaoba people can survive here, in addition to their water nature is first-class, the hand-to-hand fighting ability of the Shaoba people is definitely the top three among the ethnic groups in Xia Huaguo.

In addition, the Shaoba people robbed marriage and "exterminated" in this area, so while the Shaoba people lived like a fish in water in the Qingula Mountains, they were also burdened with the laurels of "barbarians".

The Shakeba people are fierce and aggressive, and generally speaking, when they have a dispute, they use fighting to resolve their disputes.

The Shakers are very united with each other in general, and are always deeply hostile to people from the jungle and the beach where they live.

However, in recent years, as Xia Huaguo has become more and more fatal to the world, the number of people who come to the Qingula Mountains to explore is increasing day by day, and the probability of outsiders intruding into the areas where the Shaoba people gather has greatly increased, which makes the Shaoba people also tired of coping.

It is still more dangerous to rashly intrude into the territory of the Shaoba people, and the Shaoba people will expel the men who mistakenly enter the territory.

But women's words may not be so lucky, they will basically be fought over by a few savage Shakeba men, and they are usually the prize of the winner, which makes the women who fall outside the Shakeba Clan feel like they have fallen into hell.

There have even been cases where the single members of the Shaoba tribe robbed those women who came from abroad to explore the Qingula Mountains, and the result was, of course, very significant. Because the Shaoba clan is still very interested in their Xiahua bloodline, this move also makes the outside world ridicule the singles of the Shaoba clan for being hungry. In the end, the patriarch of the Shaoba clan had to come forward to settle the matter.

The Shaba people are relatively closed, and there is less communication with the outside world, and the average clansman can only speak the local language of the Shaoba people, so when they meet outsiders, they may not understand the language.

The general hearing of the Shakeba people is not good, and the Shakeba people are tyrannical and abnormal, so it is very likely that outsiders will break into the territory of the Shakeba tribe and have a fatal conflict.

In conflicts, the Shakeba people rely only on the cover of the jungle or the sea, using primitive weapons such as pikes and sophisticated weapons against outsiders, so they often damage each other.

However, it is also because of these events that the impression left by the Shakeba tribe to the outside world is that they are like uncivilized barbarians.
