Chapter XXXV

At this time, Zahe smiled bitterly and said: "In previous years, it was on the Mujing grassland, but this year the grassland was changed to the Luhao tribe, and now Lord Balu has not been allocated, and I don't know if I can still graze next year." ”

Qin Wen was stunned for a moment, he didn't expect that he would get this answer when he asked casually, he didn't know much about the situation of the Lingshan tribe, and he didn't know how to answer for a while, and the conversation between the two of them was a little cold.

At this time, the soldier who was standing outside with Qin Wen spoke: "Ebihu leader will replace the Mujing grassland, I think he will definitely assign another grassland that can shepherd sheep to our Lord Balu, and besides, next year, our Lord Balu should be on duty as the tribal leader, and then there will be less of our pasture." ”

Zahe looked at Qin Wen, Qin Wen knew that these were internal matters of the Lingshan tribe, and they didn't have much to do with him, and now he heard that Balu would be on duty as the leader of the tribe next year, if everything went well, it seemed that there would be a stable channel for him to trade the Lingying Stone in the future.

Qin Wen casually diverted the topic at this time, chatted about some harvest problems of the Lingshan tribe, and did not hide it from Qin Wen because he was an outsider, so he really told Qin Wen some information.

From the conversation, Qin Wen learned that the Lingshan tribe did not have too much pasture between the Luhoro tribe and the Huren tribe in the west, so the income from grazing cattle and sheep was also limited.

After chatting for a while in front of Zahe's tent, the soldiers standing outside came in and told Qin Wen, "Master Qin Dan, Steward Jino has returned. ”

Qin Wen looked up, and sure enough, in front of his tent, Jino was walking towards this side, so he got up and said goodbye to Zha He, and walked back to his tent.

Jino was followed by a strong man holding a tray, Qin Wen knew that these should be the elixirs that Gino had taken, and sure enough, after the two walked into the tent, Gino took the tray in the strong man's hand, carefully placed it on the wooden table in the Dan room, and said to Qin Wen: "Master Qin Dan, the elixir you need has been taken, can you see what is missing?"

Qin Wen checked the elixir in the tray, the quality was still good, so he nodded and said: "There is nothing missing, I am going to mix the elixir now and start refining, in these three days, it is best not to let people come in and disturb." ”

Jino nodded and said: "Lord Balu has already arranged it, this group of soldiers outside is to prevent outsiders from entering, I will be outside the tent during this time, if Qin Danshi needs anything temporarily, just call me directly." After speaking, he turned his body lightly and left Qin Wen's tent.

Qin Wen carefully prepared the elixir, and then skillfully put the elixir into the Dan furnace that was already at the right temperature, and after closing the lid of the furnace, he began to refine.

Until the third day of the pill, no one entered the tent to disturb Qin Wen, and put away the refining haode pill with the prepared haode jade bottle, Qin Wen got up and walked out of the tent, and Ji Nuo, who was waiting outside, hurriedly asked, "Master Qin Dan, do you have anything to do?"

Qin Wen gestured to him with the jade bottle in his hand and said, "This furnace of elixir has been refined, are you Lord Balu in the tribe?"

Jino hesitated slightly, but thinking of what Balu had explained to him at the beginning, Qin Wen could see him at any time, so he hurriedly replied: "Yes, Lord Balu is in the tent these days, and I will accompany Qin Danshi." ”

Under the leadership of Gino, Qin Wen came to Balu's big tent, as soon as he entered the tent, Qin Wen felt that the atmosphere inside was more solemn, and there were several strong men with different faces sitting under Balu, among which there were two older elders, and it seemed that this situation was in a meeting.

However, the guards outside did not stop Qin Wen, Qin Wen was a little hesitant for a while, and then said: "It turns out that Lord Balu has something to do, so he will retire first." ”

Balu hurriedly got up and said: "Qin Danshi, wait, these are the old people in my tribe, Qin Danshi has just arrived, and he hasn't been introduced yet, so I just happened to meet you today." ”

As he spoke, he said to the five or six people sitting below: "This is the Qin Dan Master I just mentioned, he is going to stay in our tribe to refine the pill during this time, and everyone will be more familiar with it in the future." ”

Everyone's eyes were on Qin Wen at this time, and Balu also introduced these people to Qin Wen one by one, sure enough, these people were the leaders of the Balu tribe, Qin Wen didn't know why Balu would introduce himself to them so enthusiastically, but they all smiled and bowed.

One of the old men looked at Qin Wen's face, and said with some contempt: "Balu, since you invited Qi people to refine the pill, why did you invite an apprentice to come, I think he is at most refining the pill of the lower grade of the Xuan level, and it does not greatly improve the cultivation of our tribe." ”

At this time, Balu suddenly turned his gaze to Jino behind Qin Tattoo, and when he saw Jino bowing slightly, he said with a smile: "Qin Danshi, do you have anything to do today?"

Qin Wen looked at the heads with different expressions next to him: "I have refined a furnace of Xuan-level mid-grade pills in the past three days, and I specially brought it to Lord Balu to check the quality." ”

As he spoke, he handed the jade bottle in his hand to Gino beside him, after Jino took the jade bottle, he walked quickly to Balu's side, Balu gently poured out one, put it in the palm of his hand, sniffed it slightly, nodded and said: "It is indeed a good Xuan-level medium-grade elixir, there are a total of twelve here?"

He looked at Qin Wen in surprise at this time, although the holy masters who can refine the pill in the tribe are very scarce, but the common sense of refining the pill Balu still knows, if it is normal, it is good to be able to produce seven or eight pills in a furnace, and the most is ten, and this time Qin Wen actually refined twelve.

Qin Wen nodded and said: "This is also the quality of the earth fire that Lord Balu is looking for, plus the year of the elixir is also enough, so there are a few more pills in a furnace, this time it is just an occasional coincidence, and when I breathe for a day, tomorrow I will be ready to start refining the Xuan-level high-grade elixir, and when the time comes, there may not be this amount anymore." ”

Hearing that Qin Wen was able to refine a Xuan-level high-grade elixir, the leaders present all looked at Qin Wen with fanatical eyes, and even the old man who spoke just now had a trace of remorse flashing in his eyes, Balu smiled at this time and put the elixir into the jade bottle and said, "Then there will be Lao Qin Danshi, Qin Danshi, please take a seat." ”

Qin Wen saw that he put away the jade bottle, knowing that in front of so many heads, the Tiling Eagle Stone was not suitable, so he nodded slightly and sat cross-legged beside a strong man-headed man, and the strong man hurriedly smiled and signaled to Qin Wen, being able to have a good relationship with a Dan master who refines high-grade pills is crucial to the development of a tribe.

At this time, Balu also sat down cross-legged in front of him and said: "Okay, let's continue to discuss, this Qin Danshi is not an outsider, besides, the affairs of our tribe are now known to everyone, so don't scruple about it, just say it casually." ”

One of the leaders closest to Balu spoke: "Lord Balu, I think there is something strange in the distribution of the grassland this time, this year the Mujing grassland has just been exchanged by the Luhao tribe, but the leader of Ebihu has exchanged his Oro grassland to us, I can't figure out this matter." ”

The old man opposite him said: "The Oron grassland is not only larger than the curtain well, but also the water and grass in it are relatively lush, for our tribe, this transaction is earned, what else can't you think of?"

The head man who spoke just now said lightly: "What Uncle Lu said is exactly what I can't figure out, since the Oron grassland is bigger than the curtain well, then how good it would be for Ebihu to directly exchange his Oro grassland to the Luhoro tribe, in that case, he can still get a lot of benefits in front of Lord Luhoro, why let us get this benefit for nothing." ”

Hearing his words, all the leaders fell silent, and the old man named Julu hesitated for a moment and said, "Balu will be the leader of the tribe next year, and this move should be a gesture of goodwill to our tribe." ”

The head man sitting next to Qin Wen shook his head at this time and said: "Since Ebihu became the leader of the tribe, he has been more strict with other tribes in the open and secret, taking the pill as an example, all the Great Qi caravans came to us, and all the pill transactions were completed by him, and then the trade was distributed according to the size of the tribe." ”

"Over the years, how many pills has our tribe distributed? How many pills has he secretly hidden for his tribesmen? Even if the pills traded are twice the market price, we still can't buy pills with spirit stones in our hands, these Lord Balu should know better than us. ”

Hearing this, Qin Wen immediately understood why Balu wanted to give himself such a high price to buy the pill, and he also faintly saw that Balu let himself appear on such an occasion, in fact, it was also to appease the minds of these leaders of his tribe and play a role in stabilizing the tribe.

Balu looked at Qin Wen at this time, and there was no strange expression, so he sighed and said: "Don't talk about the pill in the future, how to say that Ebihu is also my brother who has been worshiping since childhood, I promise you here, as long as Qin Danshi is in my tribe for one day, I will distribute some pills to everyone evenly every month." ”

When the leaders here heard this, they all nodded one after another, and the head man sitting next to Balu spoke up again at this time: "Speaking of the matter of Lord Balu and Ebihu swearing goodbyes, for so many years, what Ebihu has done to Lord Balu is really chilling, I heard yesterday that Ebihu actually rejected the marriage between Batu and Qige. ”

Qin Wen was stunned, it seemed that there was still something wrong with the little couple he met in the cave, and Balu said with a sinking face at this time: "Han Thorn, this is the place where we discuss tribal affairs, don't mention things like these children." ”

Han Thorn still said with an unchanged face: "These things show that Ebihu is wary of Lord Balu, and he only let the Oron grassland out, it should be before the tribal leader takes turn next year, the Hu tribe bordering the Oron grassland will destroy our tribe." ”

As soon as this statement came out, the account was full of uproar.
