Chapter 343: A Treasure Trove of Resources
"It's simple, if I change my name, wouldn't it be fine. Lin An thought for a while and said, "Hmm, how about I call Shi Lin?"
Yang Ming nodded and replied, "It's okay, I'll use it." ”
After taking a brief sip of tea, she continued: "As for the identities of the two of you, let's just say that I just befriended the master of the deep mountains!"
In that case, she would have been able to explain it with ease.
"What about me?" Su Xiaoqi pointed at himself anxiously and asked Yang Ming.
"What about you? Yang Ming looked sideways at the outside of the tent, and suddenly had a flash of inspiration, "Just call it Su Xiaoqi, anyway, the demon clan doesn't know who you are, you are a demon clan yourself." ”
"Okay. Su Xiaoqi looked a little disappointed.
"Okay, kidding you, you'll be my sister. Yang Ming said with a smile.
Su Xiaoqi nodded excitedly: "Okay, okay, let's be sisters." ”
Then she whispered tentatively.
"Sister Ming?"
"Hey, Sister Xiaoqi!" Yang Ming smiled and held Su Xiaoqi's hand, only feeling that this little hand was very cute.
Lin An was standing not far away, with an aunt's smile on his face.
"Hmph, what do you see, stinky man!" Yang Ming snorted.
Lin An touched his head, only feeling that the patriarch of the demon tribe was also quite cute at this moment.
"Lin An, by the way, it's time to change your dressing!" Su Xiaoqi suddenly remembered that Lin An was still injured, and hurriedly picked up the medicine box and walked over with concern.
"Don't don't, I'm all right, really, I don't lie to you. ”
Lin An looked down, and realized that the clothes on his body had been changed, the original white embroidered clothes were gone, and now he was wearing a tiger skin and chicken feathers.
Now, he was a little blindsided.
His clothes were changed while he was unconscious, so who helped him change them?
Lin An raised his head and looked at the two demon clans not far away, was it the kind and lovely Su Xiaoqi, or the patriarch of the demon clan who was full of fan?
It's really hard to get tangled.
According to their rules in the Central Plains, should they go to their parents-in-law's house with them?
Oops, what a shame.
Just as Lin An's old face was slightly red, the corners of Yang Ming's mouth showed a hint of a smile, and he said lightly.
"Arkuri, come in!"
"Yes, Patriarch. ”
An extremely majestic voice came from outside the tent, and I saw a man with a tiger's back and a bear's waist violently open the curtain and enter the tent.
Lin An looked at this big man with a black bear on his head, and couldn't help but feel furious in his heart, as if he had an ominous guess.
Could it be that this black bear spirit helped him change his clothes?
What a loss.
The body was seen by a male demon clan, how embarrassing it was.
"That's right, as you might imagine, your clothes were changed for you by Akuri. ”
Just as Lin An was thinking wildly, Yang Ming pointed to the black bear spirit and introduced Lin An playfully.
"You're not going to thank Akuri. ”
"Ah!" Lin An's mind suddenly went blank, "Ah, this?"
"Dear Terran powerhouse, it is an honor for Arcuri to serve you, and Arcuri does not need to be thanked. The black bear spirit Akuri leaned over and said respectfully.
Lin An smiled, and also bent down and replied, "Thank you, warrior, for changing my clothes for me." ”62
"You're welcome, I'm deeply honored to be here. Akuri bowed again.
Lin An: ......
The big guy was so polite that he didn't know what to say.
"Poof. Yang Ming smiled, and then said, "Okay, Akuri, you step down!"
"Yes, Patriarch!" the black bear spirit Akuri strode away, turning and walking out of the tent.
"By the way, it just so happened that this afternoon, there was a trading event in the nearby high-level tribe, let's go together, shall we?" Yang Ming smiled and tentatively invited.
Lin An could feel the tension in her tone.
It seems that he is still vaguely afraid of something.
"Okay, okay, Sister Ming took me to take a look, I haven't been to the big tribe for a long time. Su Xiaoqi looked very much looking forward to it.
She turned to look at Lin An and asked, "Lin An, are you going with you too?"
Yang Ming also turned his gaze to Lin An, silently looking forward to it in his heart.
Facing the "death" gaze of the two women, Lin An helplessly raised his hands to express his surrender.
"I'm going, of course I'm going. ”
The opportunity is rare, he had only seen the gathering of this big demon tribe in the information book before, but now that he has the opportunity to experience it himself, he naturally should not miss it.
The gathering of the big demon tribe is only held once a year, and many low-level small tribes of the demon clan in the vicinity are like human villages, responsible for paying certain taxes to the big demon tribe during that period.
To put it mildly, it is called a tax, but it is actually a disguised collection of "protection fees".
Collect and protect the low-level small tribes of the demon clan from being bullied or competing for looting by other middle and high-level tribes.
Of course, you can also choose not to give, but it didn't take long for the low-level small tribes of the demon clan who didn't give benefits to be suddenly attacked by the middle and high-level tribes, and the people of the entire tribe became slaves who were worse than death.
Over time, no low-level small tribe of the demon clan dared not pay taxes to the big tribe of the demon clan.
Because many small tribes could not pay taxes, they gradually sold all kinds of resources in their tribes, and finally reluctantly announced that they would dissolve the tribes and join the nearby large tribes.
Because the big tribe has demon clan masters above the Heavenly Spirit Realm, generally no demon clan dares to come and be presumptuous.
The Terrans will not be eyeing such a big tribe with masters.
It's just that a small tribe like Yang Ming suffers.
"Goo!"
Su Xiaoqi suddenly felt a little hungry and hurriedly ran out.
"You talk first, I'll go out and find something to eat, bye-bye. ”
After Su Xiaoqi ran out of the tent, Lin An looked at Yang Ming and asked lightly, "Yang, are you ready for this year's taxes?"
"Well, not yet. Yang Ming looked a little embarrassed.
"The recent earnings are not very good, and they are still a little bit short, but as a human race, you even know this, how knowledgeable. She explained, trying to change the subject.
"I'm afraid it's not a little bit worse, right?" Lin An smiled and stretched out his hand in front of Yang Ming, "Let me see how much you still lack?"
"You?" Yang Ming was a little overwhelmed and took a few steps back.
Lin An took the opportunity to step forward, grabbed Yang Ming's hand, and took the storage ring in her hand.
With her aura, she quietly checked the value of the contents inside the storage ring.
"How much tax does your tribe need to pay in a year?" Lin An asked.
"It's about 10 billion copper coins. Yang Ming said indifferently.
"Actually, this demon tribe was inherited to me by my grandfather, in order to protect this tribe, my father had unfortunately died in battle long before my grandfather died, since my grandfather died a few years ago, I, as the only son of the patriarch, inherited the mission of protecting the small tribe of the demon clan. ”
"I just didn't expect this responsibility to be so heavy, and after only ten years, I couldn't hold on to it. ”
