Chapter 311: Secrets of the Black Water Tribe's Chief
The Chief returned to normal, The Black Water People were rejoicing, greeted one after another, with every mouth and tongue, explaining things to him.
Chief listened muddle headedly, shouted to everyone to get away and pointed at HeAn and told him to make things clear.
He An told him everything after he had been bitten by a flying squirrel.
Previous events Chief remembered clearly, he did not remember clearly only the two previous days.
"You saved me?" The Black Water Tribe's Chief looked up at Yan Mo again. He didn't seem to have seen Jiu Feng on Yan Mo's head. He didn't know whether it was deliberately ignored or for other reasons.
Jiu Feng squatted on Yan Mo's head and stared at The Black Water Tribe's Chief. He was curious about the two Legged Monster whose spit could corrode the ground.
Yan Mo has been observing the Black Water Tribe's Chief. Rabies patients are not totally unconscious when they attack. When they enter the second stage, some patients suffer from severe nerve damage, which can cause mental confusion. But some patients can remain conscious from beginning to end. Such patients are the most pitiful because of their shaking. The conscious mind cannot control its own behavior, can only consciously experience the process of their own death.
The Black Water Tribe's Chief is clearly a precedent.
"You're lucky." Yan Mo sighed.
The Black Water Tribe's Chief touched his mutilated ear, the wounds on his face and the bruises on his calves, all of which reminded him that what he had experienced was not a dream.
"I was cursed by the beast god, and you said I was the one who was lucky?" The Black Water Tribe's Chief probably first came into contact with the word luck, but Yan Mo's ability allowed him to understand the meaning of the word which made him unable to help it but pout.
Are you not lucky enough? You're the only person I've ever seen alive from rabies in my past and present life. Do you know how many coincidences it will take to make this happen?
"Chief!" HeAn and the Black Water Peoples stared disapprovingly at the man. "You can't be disrespectful to the Beast God anymore!"
"How did I disrespect him? Hello, old man...
"Chief! This is the witch of the Jiu Yuan!" He An also wanted to remind him that the bird who was crouching on his head as a beast messenger, but he shut up considering his own taboo about Chief.
The Black Water Tribe's Chief rolled his eyes. "I know, you told me. Old... Witch, you saved me. Say, what do you want? First of all, we don't have women and slaves to give you, we don’t even have enough yuan-crystal coins, we are a poor in the black water river.
Yuan Zhan wants to fight with people, and the Black Water Tribe's Chief should be a good opponent.
Yan Mo said lightly, "Your leg is broken. Can anyone in your tribe treat it?"
"You can cure even that? Then you can cure it for me." The Black Water Tribe's Chief is quite a scoundrel.
Yuan Zhan suddenly said, "7th rank blood warrior?"
The Black Water Tribe's Chief's eyes changed slightly and he immediately looked at Yuan Zhan.
Yuan Zhan knew he was wondering how he could see his details, but instead of saying it, he said, "Your blood ability is very powerful. Are your saliva and blood corrosive? What's your attack method? It's not spitting, is it? "
Yan Mo, before he saw the Black Water people using animal skins to plug their Chief mouths, he thought they were afraid of being bitten. They were not afraid of being bitten, but they were afraid of being spat at by their Chief.
The Black Water Tribe's Chief laughed angrily. "Do you think I'll say that?"
Yuan Zhan, "We can fight."
"I'm still injured. I can't fight you." The Black Water Tribe's Chief scoundrelly refused.
Yan Mo, looking at him like that, could not help stabbing his injured leg with a bone stick in his hand. "Does it hurt?"
The Black Water Tribe's Chief snapped, he patted his skin and roared, "Of course it hurts!"
"Do you want to have it cured?"
"Yes!"
Old-man Yan smiled. "That's all right then. You have a fight with A-Zhan."
The Black Water Tribe's Chief hummed, "Then I will wait till you cure me."
The Black Water Tribe's people were puzzled. Did their Chief seem to have been bullied? Does he want any help? But the bully is their savior, what to do now?
But when they saw the old witch bullying their Chief, they took a serious look at his injured leg and immediately dismissed the idea of helping Chief save face.
Yan Mo asked the Black Water Tribe's Chief to stretch out his right leg and examine the severity of his fracture by hand.
Fortunately, the broken bones were not completely broken, and his tribesmen fixed him slightly, as long as he corrected them and fixed them again.
During that time, Yuan Zhan also sat on the ground and continued to chat happily with The Black Water Tribe's Chief. "Hey, you and your tribesmen are quite different in strength. Why?"
"Where do you say you are from? The Jiu Yuan?" The Black Water Tribe's Chief forced himself not to see the bird over the old man head. Even if the bird flew up and flew in front of him, he pretended like he could not see it. "Why haven't I heard the name of your tribe? Where are you from?"
Yuan Zhan casually said, "The end of black water river"
"Up or down?"
Yuan Zhan, taking into account the upper reaches of Black Water River, said, "Down."
"Ha!" The Black Water Tribe's Chief suddenly waved. "Everyone go to the next room. Don't crowd us all here. Why should you all go? He An stay. Also, nothing happening here today can be talked to the outside world. Whoever dares to talk outside, I will eat him raw! "
"Yes." The Black Water People took orders together, including all the slaves leaving. Some went out to do things, others moved into another room, and only He An stayed.
Jiu Feng flew up to make a "Hey Hey" laugh. He thought the Two Legged Monsters seemed to be afraid of him.
Yan Mo managed the Black Water Tribe's Chief's wound and got up and thumped his waist.
Yuan Zhan quickly stood up and massaged his waist.
The Black Water Tribe's Chief looked at his injured leg and wondered if it was psychological. He felt much more comfortable than before. He immediately dragged his leg against the wall and pointed to the hide on the ground. "Sit down. He An, bring the sweet rod."
Yuan Zhan disliked the thin hide and took Yan Mo's previous puff to the mat, which allowed Yan Mo to sit on it.
Yuan Zhan sat down beside Yan Mo casually and continued to massage his waist.
The Black Water Tribe's Chief sees all of this in his eyes. "Nobody is around, let's talk, what's your purpose?"
Yuan Zhan and Yan Mo looked at each other.
The Black Water Tribe's Chief looked at their expressions and squinted, "He An, what did they ask for before they made the move?"
He An lifted the fur from the roots of the wall, pulled out two sweet rods, covered them with fur, when he heard Chief's question and hurried over and said, "Chief, they haven't asked yet."
The Black Water Tribe's Chief's expression was a little cracked, and it seemed unbelievable that they had helped him remove the curse of the Beast God without asking for anything.
He An warmly greeted Yan Mo and Yuan Zhan. "This is a special product of our tribe. We call it a sweet rod. You eat, peel the outer skin, and eat the inner core. Oh, the core cannot be eaten raw. This sweet rod's water is delicious, sweet!"
Yan Mo came here today for this sweet rod. He took it over and looked at it carefully. That's right. It should be the plant he expected.
Sweet rod, is what is also known as sweet sorghum, is one of the varieties of sorghum. It can be planted in the north, it is not fussy about the soil conditions. The growth period is only two months. After two months, it is ripe. Harvesting at the right time and you can harvest two to three stubble per one plant. In the warm places it can be planted in two seasons, cold places can be planted for only one season. Sweetness is not as strong as sugarcane, but it can be used to make sugar, wine, vinegar, feed, etc.
The sweet rod is wonderful because it can produce sorghum rice on the top and sugarcane on the bottom.
Sugarcane and sugar beet plants can be one of the important food products of The Jiu Yuan as long as the cultivation time is controlled well before they are encountered.
Yuan Zhan look at Yan Mo, can this stuff be eaten?
Yan Mo nodded. This thing can be eaten as long as there is no bad or no mold. If it can be stored, it will be fine after a winter.
He An was afraid that they would not eat it. He grabbed a pole and broke it in two. He bit off the green skin with his teeth and handed it to Yan Mo.
Yan Mo handed it to Yuan Zhan, whose teeth were still there, but he didn't want to test his old teeth firmness at all.
Jiu Feng's head rotated, and he hasn't eaten it. He wants to peck it.
Yuan Zhan didn't care about the saliva. He opened his mouth and took a big bite. He learned how to chew. Then, with a rare surprise on his face, he spit out the dregs and said, "It's really sweet. It's different from honeydew melon."
"Delicious?" Yan Mo had an unconscious smile on his face.
"Not bad."
Yan Mo knows he felt it was good, and he doesn't want the Black Water People to see that he values the plant.
"You like it. These sweet rods are for you." The Black Water Tribe's Chief was unexpectedly generous.
"Chief, all that's left is that we're going to trade in The Black Earth City... Do you have to send it all?
The Black Water Tribe's Chief sneered, "So you said, I have a life. What thanks did you give them?"
He An scratches the head, their tribe is really poor, fur, bones, feathers and so on. Other tribes also have. The Black Earth City people themselves will hunt prey. The only thing they can trade and make the Black Earth City people like is the sweet rod.
Yan Mo timely asked, "Do you have any fruit from this plant?"
The Black Water Tribe's Chief looked at him playfully, "You want seeds?"
Yan Mo did not hide, "Yes." The Black Water Tribe's Chief seems very different from his people. Not only did Yuan Zhan expose his 7th rank strength, but also his way of speaking and thinking were not like the simple Black Water People.
"I can give you some seeds in return for saving me, but the way you grow them, you need to trade something else."
"Yes." He has a guide, so he doesn't need any planting methods. When seeds are available, his goal will be achieved.
"Where on earth are you from?" The Black Water Tribe's Chief curiously said, "Do not mention the tribe at the end of the Black Water. I know all the people there. There is no such tribe as The Jiu Yuan upstream or downstream."
"How do you know? Can you just walk up and down the Black Water River?” Yuan Zhan, with one leg on his back, chews on the sweet rod and looked relaxed.
Look at Yuan Zhan, the black water Tribe's Chief's tightened muscles slowly relax. "Since you can see that I am a 7th rank blood warrior, you should also know that tribes like ours can't produce high-ranking warriors at all."
Yan Mo thought of the information he had collected in The Moer-Gan, "You were picked up by the Three Cities?"
"Yes, I probably only wake up when I was a little older." The Black Water Tribe's Chief raised his hand and drew a little more than a meter. "Our old priest heard that someone like me would be good for the tribe when he sent for the Three Cities, and he took me to the lower city the Gaogang City, which is nearest to Black Water River. Then I stayed at Gaogang until my people came to me for help and said that the Black Water Tribe's People could not hold up when hostile tribes attacked Black Water tribe.
The Black Water Tribe's Chief suddenly laughed and said, "You are not from the Three Cities. The Three Cities never call themselves the Three Cities. They make a clear distinction between upper, middle and lower ranks. They must never be confused."
Yan Mo did not answer immediately, but only smiled.
He An interrupted, with a reverent face: "When Chief returned, he quickly pushed back the enemies. After that, the tribes near us dare not provoke us anymore. We were originally only few tribesmen. When Chief returned, he subdued all the tribes around us, and we became tribes."
The Black Water Tribe's Chief did not show any complacency, but lazily went on, "I can tell you that you are not people near the Black Water River, because the Black Water Tribe is downstream of the Black Water River, and there are many people from other tribes in the Gaogang City, none of them mentioned the Jiu Yuan."
Yan Mo did not speak, Yuan Zhan did not relieve the doubt in the mind of The Black Water Tribe's Chief. Instead, he asked, "After that, you stayed in The Black Water Tribe? The Gaogang City people allow you to leave?”
The Black Water Tribe's Chief sneered. “The Gaogang City is just an affiliate of the lower city. At that time, I only had 5th rank. There were a lot of 5th rank warriors like me, and they didn't care. Plus when I stayed at 5th rank for a long time, they probably felt that I was hopeless to upgrade, let alone not allow me to leave.”
Yan Mo guessed: "It's too late for the Gaogang City people to regret when they think you're got back and improved your strength quickly, right?"
"No, they don't know I've risen to 7th rank. Everyone who knows is dead. Your warrior is the first one to see my actual strength. I think your rank is probably not lower than mine." The Black Water Tribe's Chief had looked to Yuan Zhan when he said his last sentence, "Where on earth are you from? What are you doing in the Black Earth City doing?”
"What about you? Listening to what you said, your Black Water Tribe should be attached to the Gaogang City in lower city. Why did you come to the Black Earth City which is a middle city? Yuan Zhan thought of a possibility, "Are you going to participate in this selection, expose your real strength in the selection, and then strive for the opportunity to enter Tucheng-Earth City or stay in The Black Earth City?"
"So we can get rid of the affiliation to the Gaogang City. Although they let me go back, but made us pay too hard, the sweet rod just reached the harvest time, they immediately sent people to collect goods, each time they will pull away most of our harvest and my tribesmen are not full! Hearing that the Black Earth City is not so greedy, the Gaogang City is attached to the Black Earth City. Just this time I selected the temple warriors, I brought Tribesmen over to participate.”
Yan Mo suddenly asked, "What was our purpose just now?" What do you think we should be doing for?”
The Black Water Tribe's Chief said, "I thought you wanted the seeds of sweet rods, and you did."
Yan Mo picked up the stick and poked at the black Water Tribe's Chief's injured leg. "Boy, it's not good to lie."
The Black Water Tribe's Chief just couldn't hide from the old man. It was even more impossible to beat him. He could only shout, "Stop! Stop poking! I mean it! "
They looked at him together.
The Black Water Tribe's Chief covered his wounded leg with the skin hide and said, "I thought at first that you were the people invited by the Gaogang City Temple from the temples of other cities and wanted to threaten me to give up this selection. After all, you can get rid of the curse of the beast God. This is not what any priest of an ordinary tribe can do. I say, where do you come from?”
Yan Mo doesn't believe it. Yuan Zhan uses him eyes to tell his own priest: this kid is lying.
So what secret does the Black Water Tribe's Chief hide, so that when he heard that his life had been saved, he was not only grateful to his benefactor, but also alert?
