Chapter Eighty-Five: Tabi Misin
After recording the situation of the clansmen, Chu Qili was busy sharing some experience of the spirit control to the two Zhao sisters.
Although Zhao Rou looks naΓ―ve and cute, her comprehension in terms of spirit control is extraordinary, and the elixir of this level of spirit control is already decent, and has a certain success rate.
Compared to her younger sister, Zhao Zhi was a little inferior, and tried a first-order elixir, but she quickly failed. In order not to waste too many spirit seeds, Zhao Zhi directly chose to go to the work of the spirit herb.
The two of them listened carefully to the experience taught by Chu Qili, and from time to time they also wrote down a record or two, and they had a busy day, which could be regarded as a fruitful harvest.
It wasn't until night that Chu Geli arranged a vacant room for the second daughter, and after sending them to move in safely, he rushed to Uncle Goudan's house.
As soon as he came to the door, Chu Qili saw the long-awaited chief. Chu Tian took two steps forward and said with appreciation: "It seems that you have already taken on the responsibility of being the leader, today I looked around, you are very good here, even better than within the tribe." β
"The chief has a good reputation, and I am not as good as the tribe here, whether it is the place to live, the clothes to wear, or the food. It's not even close. β
"In such a world, such a situation, not only can the tribe survive, but also keep hope in the hearts of the tribe. Chu Tian patted Chu Heli's shoulder, "It's beyond my imagination!"
"So, those reform plans of yours must have been implemented, right?" suddenly remembering something, the chief asked casually, "How's the yield?"
Chu Qili smiled: "The yield is very good, about the same as I expected, so I dared to set fire to the granary in the tribe to attract the attention of the invaders." Otherwise, even if they were driven out, the tribe would still be plagued by famine. β
"It's time to change those old rules, and your crops will be promoted to the tribe next. After all, under my leadership, the tribe did not develop to the good, but almost ......" Speaking of this, Chu Tian not only lowered his head and sighed.
"This can't all be blamed on the chieftain......" Chu Qili also wanted to comfort him, but he really didn't know how to speak, so he changed the conversation and said, "Chief Chief, I heard Uncle Goudan say that you are looking for me, do you have any explanation?"
Chu Tian took a deep breath and pointed in front of him, "Let's talk while walking, don't affect the rest of the clansmen here." β
Saying that, Chu Qili followed behind the chieftain and walked slowly in the snow at night, although it was indeed cold in this cold winter, but the cultivation of the two of them was not low, and they would not be too worried about contracting the wind cold.
After walking a few steps, Chu Tian opened his mouth and asked, "Hate Li, do you know about this Seven Clans Great Competition?"
Chu Heli frowned, "It is said that this triennial Seven Clans Great Competition is a stage for our younger generation to confront and show. As the organizer, the Imperial City will distribute a lot of resources to the tribes that perform well. It's similar to the Soul Master Competition, it's all about cultivating talents. β
"That's right, this is indeed a means for the Imperial City to motivate the young people of various tribes to practice. Chu Tian slowed the walker and nodded, "But... You only know that there is a reward for the winner, but you don't know the punishment for the loser. β
Chu Qili stopped, "Punishment?"
"That's right, there is a penalty for the loser. Chu Tian also stopped together, "The losing side needs to send a large number of young people to the battlefield, the battlefield where the orcs are fighting!"
Chu Qili was speechless from shock, and just spit out the word with difficulty, "Orc!"
"How is this possible? Even a battle-hardened veteran has a very low survival rate when fighting orcs. Letting the young people of the Seven Clans go to war is tantamount to sending them to death. Chu Qili said in a trembling voice.
Chu Tian's face was grim, "The Imperial City will give some care, so that the survival rate of those young people will be kept at about half." β
Sensing that the chieftain's tone was gradually indifferent, Chu Qili suddenly realized, "No wonder it is said that three years ago, a large number of young people in the tribe left, saying that they were going out on a mission, but they should have gone to the battlefield, right?"
Chu Qili was very impressed by the young people who had not heard from him since they left, because he was young at that time, and although he was the leader, he still had no right to interfere in these major matters.
And the thing that made Chu Heli have the deepest impact was that that that group of young people included the only son of the chieftain!
"Now that the three-year period has come to an end, the children have not returned. Chu Tian sighed, "And the tribe has suffered such a heavy blow, I don't have time to take care of them." β
"I'll go, I'll pick them up. Chu Hatli said in a deep voice, "They traded their lives for the stability of the tribe, and now they finally have a chance to come back." Anyway, I'm going to have to figure out what's stopping them from going home!"
"Hate to leave, thank you...... You know, those children are not only the future of the tribe, but also my flesh and blood. I came this time to be cheeky and invite you to take a trip...... Chu Tian smiled bitterly, "The place where the orcs are is is almost a forbidden place for us. If you strayed into it, it would be a life-and-death situation......"
"Fuck it bullshit orcs, they've given so much for the tribe, I've got to bring them back anyway. Chu Qili clenched his fists and looked towards the sky.
Chu Tian shook his head, "Hate Li, it's good that you have determination, but don't be rash, in case the battle situation on the front line is tight." You don't have to go too deep, whether you live or die, just settle your destiny. β
Although the chief was persuading him, Chu Heli saw that the chief almost gritted his teeth before saying these words, so the disadvantages of this battle situation could be seen.
"Yes, Chief Chief, I'll take care of it. In order to reassure him, Chu Qili still responded seriously.
Chu Qili remembered Dabi's matter again, so he asked casually: "Dabi is imminent, so it seems that the young people in our tribe should not be too many compared to other tribes, right?"
Chu Tian nodded, "That's right, not only us, but also the young people of the Yan Clan and the Qin Clan who can participate in the competition should not be sufficient. β
"So, the Yan and Qin tribes are also the losers of the last big competition?" Chu Qili guessed.
Chu Tian closed his eyes and recalled, "The last big competition was very miserable, divided into two arenas, and the large tribes and the medium-sized tribes competed separately. The Qi clan narrowly defeated the Qin clan, while my Chu clan and the Yan clan were attacked by the other three medium-sized tribes and were finally defeated. β
Chu Heli said in a low voice: "It's a pity that I don't have a friendship with the Yan and Qin tribes, otherwise if they also have the intention of checking the battle situation, I can still walk with them." β
After thinking about it, Chu Qili comforted himself again, "There are also benefits to having fewer people, and with the use of winged bats, I will be even more difficult to find." If one is accidentally exposed to the scene, I'm afraid even the Qin clan's men and horses won't be able to resist for too long, right?"
Finally, Chief Chutian also made a decision in the midst of the entanglement, and took out a map from the storage ring, "When you are ready, you will inform me." In the past few days, I have summarized some experiences and recorded them, and you can keep them in mind and then make plans to send them. β
