MTL - Be a Leader In a Primitive Tribe-Chapter 36
Sang Yu decided to go to the Eagle Tribe to investigate.
Everyone heard that the leader was going to spy on the military situation. Especially the members of the hunting team, everyone wants to go with them, to protect the safety of the leader, the three sisters Yan and Jiao, Daxue, everyone expects to be selected.
Sang Yu was very happy with everyone's courage, but finally called Wu to follow.
"This time I'm just going to spy on the situation. It's not suitable to have too many people. It's enough for me to bring Wu and Siya, and it's not easy to be discovered."
Wu was once captured as a slave and stayed there for nearly a year. He is familiar with the terrain and characters and can be used as a guide for this operation.
Seeing that they were not selected, the others couldn't help showing disappointment on their faces.
Especially Yu, with dejected eyes, lowered his head and remained silent.
Sang Yu tapped her forehead as a warning, telling her not to follow secretly like before, and to recuperate at home.
The little girl didn't know what was going on, but she came back with an injured arm after going hunting this time, no matter what she said, she couldn't let her go out to take risks.
Then they explained the next tasks one by one: "In the few days when I am away, Yanhejiao will continue to make bows and arrows. I hope that when I come back, I have found the best materials."
Jiaoheyan obeyed the order.
Sang Yu said to Gao again: "Go hunting and catch as many as possible, fill up our breeding farm little by little, and bring people to continue building the fence in the afternoon."
After giving instructions, he went to Hexiang to get some medicine just in case, and then set off with Wu and Siya.
The Eagle Tribe was four days away from the Bird Tribe, and seven days away from the market. Sang Yu knew that it would take at least half a month to a month to go back and forth.
Under Wu's guidance, they figured out the direction of the Eagle Tribe and hurried on their way.
Si Ya is just a bear, not a horse, and Sang Yu has to ride it around on weekdays. Now that there is one more person, it is not willing to be ridden as a horse.
Sang Yu had no choice but to be patient and walk slowly, thinking to see if she would find some special plants, such as cotton and hemp, on the way this time, so that she was not so anxious at last.
Now everyone is not particularly worried about food, it is time to think about what to wear.
In addition to hiding shame and dignity, there is another important reason, which is to keep out the cold.
Last winter, the people of the tribe lived and ate in the kitchen, and did not go out for the whole winter, all because of the lack of warm clothes.
Originally, I thought that this year I would develop the work on clothing. But such a trip came again, as long as it was put on hold again.
Two people and one bear stop and go, passing a field of rapeseed flowers.
Rapeseeds can be used to extract oil, and the stems and leaves can be used for cooking. The whole body is full of treasures. Of course, Sangyu will not let it go when you see it.
She memorized the location, and planned to gather some to dry and save seeds when she came back. At that time, a large field of rapeseed flowers will be planted on the side of the tribe, and they will stop and go all the way. It will be ten days when they arrive near the Eagle tribe.
According to Wu, the people of the Eagle Tribe are brutal and vigilant, so the closer they get to the Eagle Tribe, the more cautious they are.
Fortunately, the work and rest time of this tribe has always been on time.
During the day, they would drive their slaves to collect and hunt, and they would return before dark at night.
However, the nearby wild fruits had already been picked, and now they had to go further away, which made it easier for Sangyu and Wu to move.
The two hid in a hidden cave near the Eagle Tribe, and after the people from the Eagle Tribe returned noisily after the sun went down, the two led Si Ya all the way up the back mountain.
Sang Yu wanted to climb to the top so that he could observe the terrain.
By the time we reached the top of the mountain, it was completely dark.
Sang Yu was not in a hurry, and found a huge stone as a cover, and started to cook with a fire.
Now that pottery is available, people in the Phoenix Tribe have to carry a pot on their backs to cook soup every time they go out, including members of the hunting team.
Wu quickly found firewood and brought some spring water to boil.
Soak a few raw cassava in advance to remove the poison, throw two into the fire, and the staple food is ready.
Si Ya caught two pheasants from nowhere. Sang Yu taught Wu to scald the chicken feathers with boiling water and then pluck the feathers. Then he chopped off one with a bone knife, and kept the other as a barbecue for someone who worked so hard to catch the chickens. Ya.
Of course, all these tasks were happily taken over by Wu Qi.
Ginger slices and salt are the only condiments at present, and Sangyu was not left behind when it came.
She added sliced ginger and salt to the clay pot. There was a familiar mushroom on the back of the stone. She picked it, washed it, threw it into the pot, stirred it with a wooden stick, and waited for it to be cooked.
The other one was sprinkled with salt, put on a wooden stick and roasted on the fire.
When the soup chicken in the clay pot is cooked, the roasted chicken is almost cooked.
Sang Yu threw the big roast chicken behind her, and Si Ya's long arms caught it in her hand, eating it with relish.
The smell of roasted cassava is tangy, and the dust is pulled away with a wooden stick, and two black, fat and long cassava appear in front of you.
One for each person, and the burnt black skin on the outside was peeled off to reveal the glutinous potato meat.
Each of them brought a bowl, and scooped a spoon made of bamboo into the pot. Each person had a big chicken leg, and the tender and juicy chicken exploded in his mouth with one bite, which was very beautiful.
When did Wu He have such a wonderful dinner, the whole person seemed to be dreaming.
He didn't dare to eat more, but who knew that the leader had a small appetite, so he stopped eating after eating a few pieces of meat and drinking two bowls of soup, and asked him to dispose of all the rest and find a place to wash the pot.
Wu suddenly smiled, and ate a round belly with meat and soup, and a big cassava. He never imagined that he would have a full day.
After finishing everything, I found a place not too close to the leader to sleep. It is convenient to protect the leader without disturbing too much. Everyone in the tribe knows that the leader likes to be clean and doesn’t like to get too close to others, so no one dares to approach her easily .
Being able to come out with the leader this time, Wu was a little excited and a little apprehensive.
He was a little cautious at the beginning, for fear that he might not do well and would offend the leader.
But the leader seemed very approachable, he didn't beat and scold him casually, and he made such delicious chicken soup, Wu's opinion of the leader changed again.
At this time, the leader was sleeping soundly with the big bear in his arms, and it seemed that he didn't need to protect himself. But Wu didn't dare to go too far, so he found a stone wall and fell asleep in the aftertaste of chicken soup.
I don't know how long he slept, the dream was full of chicken legs, chicken wings and chicken soup, making his mouth water.
Unexpectedly, a giant furry palm came from nowhere. The giant palm slapped away the chicken all over the sky, and even slapped him on the head. His whole body trembled, and he woke up instantly.
Seeing Siya's pitch-black eyes staring at him.
Wu saw that it was already daylight, so he quickly got up and found that the leader was already standing on the top of the mountain to observe the situation below carefully.
There were grass, trees, and flowers on the top of the mountain. When Sang Yu heard the movement behind her, she turned around and saw Wu woke up, so she beckoned him to come over.
"Tell me about the situation below. Where does the leader of the Eagle Tribe live, and how are the other cronies distributed?"
Wu quickly looked down, and the slave recalled what he saw and heard when he was here a few months ago.
"We went down, and the middle cave was where the leader of the Eagle Tribe, Hei Ying, lived. He ordered several caves to be dug out on both sides. These caves lived with his sons and cronies."
As soon as Sang Yu woke up, she sat on the edge of the cliff and looked down from top to bottom. Looking at the people walking back and forth in the cave and the open space in the middle, five or six hunting and gathering teams have already gone out in a row. Five or six hundred people.
The layout of the nests of the Eagle Tribe is exactly the same as that of the previous Bird Tribe. They are all triangular and open to the outside, narrow inside and wide outside. Once people block the entrance of the cave, it is easy to be caught in the urn.
However, the opening of the Eagle Tribe is relatively large, not as narrow as the previous Bird Tribe. The opening is large, and at least hundreds of people are needed to surround the entrance.
Where did the hundreds of people come from? Sang Yu couldn't help but smile wryly. They don't even have fifty people now.
"Where do they drink water on weekdays? Where does the water come from?"
Wu lay on the edge of the mountain, pointing to a point halfway down the mountain that was almost vertical: "There is a stream here, they use bamboo to connect it, and connect it to the stone tank."
"Is this stone jar something everyone can drink?"
"No, the water in the stream is so small that the people of the Eagle tribe can drink it, and the slaves have to climb over the mountain to get water to drink."
Sang Yu sneered upon hearing this.
Wu on the side couldn't help shrinking his neck.
"Can any slave get close to that water tank on weekdays?"
Wu shook his head, suddenly remembered something and said, "Miao can..."
Sang Yu asked suspiciously, "Who is Miao?"
"Miao is the wife of the former leader's son. She is good-looking. After being taken captive, she has become Hei Ying's wife."
When Sang Yu heard this, her temples twitched.
In this era of ruthlessness and blood drinking, the strong can be unscrupulous, but the weak have become playthings that they trample on at will.
"If we want to attack the Eagle Tribe, will Miao be willing to help us, or will she not want to run away with others now that she has become Black Eagle's wife and no longer suffers?"
Wu shook his head: "Miao's face was engraved with the totem of the Eagle Tribe. She has been a slave of the Eagle Tribe all her life, and Black Eagle's other wives often bully her, and other slaves don't like her. When I saw her They're all blue and purple."
Sang Yu nodded, and asked some more questions about the direction. After getting the answers, he planned to go down the mountain to have a look tomorrow night after the Eagle Tribe hunting team went to rest at night.
In the past two days during the day, I mainly observed the eagle tribe's work and rest time and other conditions on the top of the mountain.
In addition to Wu's explanation, Sangyu basically grasped the life rules of this tribe. On the third night, they took advantage of the fact that it was just getting dark and they could still see the road down to the bottom of the mountain, so they found a place outside the pass. For one night, when the surrounding scenery gradually became clear at about four or five o'clock in the morning, I learned more about some obstacles and the distribution of caves on the ground.
He left quietly until he heard the sound of the little leader yelling at the slaves for work in the tribe.
—
At dawn, Miao followed the other women and went to the mountains to collect.
The symbol engraved on the left face did not damage her face, but added a decadent beauty.
But at the same time, she was also haggard. She didn't want to stay in the tribe during the day because she didn't want to be bullied by Black Eagle's other wives, so she might as well come out to get some air. Even if there are guards, it's better than being bored in this hellish tribe.
There were thirty women in the team, five of them were natives of the Eagle Tribe, and the remaining twenty-five were slaves from other tribes captured by the Bird Tribe.
Five people guard twenty, and there is no advantage in force value. Someone once tried to escape.
But after being captured, he was tortured to death. Over time, no one dared to escape anymore, and everyone lived numbly.
Today's collection target has to climb over four mountains. The slaves in the team have never had enough food, and they have not taken in salt for a long time, so they are already exhausted after walking halfway.
Seeing this, the guard women cursed and beat the slaves with whips.
After arriving at the destination, the slaves were forced to climb up the tree to pick the wild fruit, and several guards ate the wild fruit underneath and supervised.
Just in the middle of the work, a guard suddenly felt a black shadow flashing in front of his eyes. He hurriedly called the others to pay attention, and found a naive big bear lying on the ground and eating bamboo shoots.
Seeing that it was a beast, the leading woman couldn't help exclaiming.
The tribe has not caught a large animal for a long time, and they eat wild fruits all day long, and everyone is very hungry.
The leader, Black Eagle, also said that anyone who finds prey should report it to the tribe, and there will be a lot of rewards when they catch it.
The five guards were salivating looking at the fat, thick-fleshed meatball, scrambling to report.
After fighting back and forth, the leader still took the lead, and the remaining four stared at the big meat pier to be vigilant.
After eating the bamboo, Daroudun straightened up and was about to walk out of the forest.
The few women didn't care about the slaves by the pear tree, and hurried to catch up, thinking that even if they couldn't take down this big meat pier.
But as long as you watch it and don't let it run away, you will be considered a meritorious service.
This big meat pier was not afraid of them, he slowed down when he saw them slowing down, as if he was afraid that they would not be able to keep up, just like this, the four beasts walked and stopped, and within a short time, they went around to a mountain behind.
The female slaves did not dare to run away, and picked the fruit numbly.
Only Miao was looking around, and ran to the other side of the forest while others were not paying attention.
Just didn't take a few steps, and bumped into a soft body.
Miao paled in shock, thinking it was someone from the tribe chasing after him, he gritted his teeth and stared at the woman in front of him, with a look of resignation to death.
But the woman in front of her was very handsome, tall and fair, and she didn't know what she was wearing, but she looked very soft and beautiful.
This woman is Sang Yu.
Sang Yu smiled softly and said, "Don't be afraid, I'm not from the Eagle Tribe, I'm the leader of the Bird Tribe, but now it's not called the Bird Tribe, it's called the Phoenix Tribe now."
How could Miao believe that after the Eagle Tribe attacked, the Bird Tribe took everyone abducted and perished, so there is no new leader.
At this moment, Wu poked his head out from behind Sang Yu, showing a smiling face.
"Miao, do you remember me?"
Miao's eyes widened, and she asked in disbelief, "You... didn't you go to the market with Ta and the others?"
Ta and his party went to the bazaar and did not come back for a long time. Sombra sent Xin out to find someone, but no news came back yet, everyone thought they were dead.
But he didn't expect the person who disappeared to appear in front of him, and his face was ruddy, and he didn't look tired or weak at all.
Miao couldn't help but said, "Wu, you seem to have grown stronger."
Wu Hehe laughed, but realized that the leader came to find Miao today for an important matter, so he hurriedly whispered into her ear for a while.
After hearing this, Miao locked her dark eyes on the woman in front of her, and said, "Yes, I can help, but it must be successful. I don't want to stay here any longer. If I can't do this, I won't be able to live." gone."
Sang Yu nodded and said, "It will definitely succeed, and I won't make you wait too long."
Miao then nodded.
Sang Yu leaned over to explain some details of the operation to her, and then handed a medicine bag to Miao, telling her to hide it and go back to the team.
Before the guards found someone, the two quickly joined Si Ya and quickly fled the area.
However, after several days of trekking, when they returned to the tribe, they found Ya who had just left.
Sang Yu was very happy to see Ya.
After all, Ya made her feel like a gentleman among savages, and her calm atmosphere was incompatible with the people around her.
"You're here for the salt, aren't you?"
Ya shook her head, then smiled again.
"Of course I'd be happy if you could exchange the salt for me."
"But I am here this time, not for the salt, but for the Eagle Tribe."
Sang Yu froze for a moment, she had just returned from the Eagle Tribe. Could it be that Ya is more informed about things over there than she is?
"Black Eagle's son, Xin, has found the body of the tower, and is now looking around for those who hurt them. I believe they will definitely find out here soon. This time, I want to remind you to prepare in advance."
Sang Yu was a little surprised when he heard this.
Previously, Miao only said that Black Hawk sent Xin out to find someone, but he didn't expect Xin to find the cave.
I thought that in such a harsh primitive environment, there were fierce tigers and beasts everywhere, and the Eagle Tribe lost a few people, so they shouldn't care too much. At first, I thought that some wild beasts could be blamed, but I didn't expect that Xin and the others actually Find the tower's body.
Seeing her appearance, Ya pondered for a moment and said, "If you have no other choice, you can take your people to the Rock Tribe to seek refuge, but the Rock Tribe only protects their own people."
The implication is that if you want to obtain the protection of the Rock Tribe, you must join them and become one of them.
Of course Sang Yu didn't want to go this far.
In fact, during the past few days of observing the Eagle Tribe, she already had an idea in her mind, and she had already told Miao to make preparations, but she didn't expect Xin's movements to be so fast and her nose to be so sharp.
But if the other party really came to the door, they would not be cowardly.
Sang Yu took a deep breath and asked, "If I ask you to borrow someone, will you agree?"
Hearing this, Ya stood up, and glanced at the unfinished low wall in front of her, as well as neat patches of farmland with rows of bamboo houses not far away.
There was also the sound of sheep bleating from a farm in the distance.
A glance at the past, a thriving school.
She finally opened her mouth: "I can only mobilize a hundred people."
Sang Yu smiled, "One hundred people is enough, I promise, your people don't need to get close to the Eagle Tribe, and they won't get hurt."
