Chapter 297: Primitive Tribe Chieftain Mother-in-law 17
Things were not going very smoothly for Yun Xi, mainly because the two boys, Hu Hai, were raised to be very delicate. It wasn't that they were raised, but rather they were influenced by their original tribe and had some strange personalities, so they always wanted to rest after walking a long distance.
If you tell them that you are grown men, you should be manly and stand up!
I guess it won’t work, and they won’t understand it.
"This winter, I will count everyone's contributions and give everyone rewards. You know, I have some new and interesting things. Who gets them depends on how hard you work."
Yun Xi plans to give everyone some novel gadgets as rewards in winter, such as manicure sets, lighters, cloths, etc.
Shan didn't expect there would be a reward, "Chief, meat as a reward? The most powerful warriors in my former tribe could eat more meat."
"There's more than just meat." Yun Xi glanced at the lake.
Hu Hai cheered up a little, and Shan blinked his eyes, as if he understood. During the rest of the journey, he would go to Hu Hai from time to time to chat and cheer him up.
When we arrived at the beach, Shan was no longer in the mood to care about the lake or the sea. He ran freely on the beach, laughing as he ran, like a monkey.
"Take a rest first and start working tomorrow."
Yun Xi checked the drying condition of the sea water and decided to move it to the pool nearby to continue drying it tomorrow.
Lian couldn't sit still. Ever since she knew there was so much edible food on the beach, she always felt it would be a waste if she didn't pick it up.
"Just take a break. Come and follow me to the sea. I'll teach you what's edible and what's poisonous. Fresh seafood is the most delicious. I'm already greedy."
He Hu lay on the beach, unwilling to move, his gaze fixed and his eyes empty, looking into the distance.
"Huh? What is that?"
Shan, who was about to go and weave bamboo baskets, looked into the distance in the direction Lian was pointing.
"It's glowing? What's going on?" Shan shouted to Yun Xi, "Chief, look to the north, what's that light?"
Yun Xi looked up and saw a light coming from far away. First it was green light, then red light. It was very clear even in the daytime!
"System, what's going on?"
"Host, I didn't detect it."
"Well, if even you don't know, there's no way I'd know. Could it be a meteorite hitting us?"
"No, that's not how meteorites land."
"That's good."
Yun Xi suppressed her curiosity and focused on what was happening in front of her, not knowing that other tribes were already in an uproar!
Wu was spinning around excitedly, "Chief, it's the Beast God! The Beast God has reappeared!"
Chief Yun's face was solemn, and he said seriously: "The Yang tribe is a dragon!"
Wu said dully, "We bears are not bad either."
"But dragons can fly." Yun was envious.
"It's okay, Chief. We are on good terms with the Yang Tribe." Wu said quickly, "The people of the Yang Tribe are very kind. You should know that since you've been there."
"I know that." Yun's eyes were dim. "Go back to your tent first."
"Yes, patriarch."
"Cai, the Beast God appears!"
"Yun, I saw it." A petite woman who looked exactly like Yun appeared and stood behind her, whispering, "Make friends with the Heyang tribe."
"Cai, you are smarter than me. Tell me whether survival will be more difficult in the future and whether I can still protect the people in the tribe?" The strong and brave Yun was very panicked at this time.
"Yun, you can do it! When the Beast God appears, all tribes will slowly awaken their hidden bloodlines, making survival more difficult." Cai said dejectedly, "The old witch doctor told me that the stronger a person is, the more likely they are to transform into a beast. I may not be able to transform into a beast."
"Beast transformation..."
How could Yun not remember the secret the old patriarch told her? Before his death, the old patriarch was extremely unwilling to accept his fate. If she waited until the Beast God descended and transformed into a beast, her lifespan would increase by a hundred years!
A full hundred years old!
This is the blessing from the Beast God. Unfortunately, the old patriarch didn’t wait for it, but I did.
"In the past, every tribe had a totem, painted in the shape of an animal. The stronger the power of faith, the more powerful the totem spirit. The wizard connected to the totem through spells and communicated with the totem spirit. Sometimes the totem spirit would bestow blessings, enhance strength, and cure serious illnesses." Yun looked at the sky outside. "Originally, all totem spirits were powerful in their own way, until the Beast God appeared. The Beast God was so powerful that all totem spirits bowed down to him."
Cai nodded gently. "Yes, the Yang Tribe was founded by Yang. She was generous and optimistic, born free, and traveled to many places. Although she didn't transform into a beast, she was treated well by many tribes. Later, she casually combined the images of some animals to draw a dragon, founded the Yang Tribe, and later defeated the outsiders. Unfortunately, since then, the beast god disappeared, the totem spirit no longer responded, and all the orcs slowly degenerated into ordinary people, and their long lifespans became shorter and shorter..."
Yun and Cai exchanged a glance, and Yun said, "When the Yang tribe reappeared, there were only a dozen or so people left. It couldn't even be called a tribe. My tribe is the smallest among the surrounding tribes, but it still has 200 people."
Cai was curious, "I wonder what happened in the past that caused so many drastic changes and the orcs were isolated north of that dividing line."
Yun corrected him, "Wu told me that Shui, the chief of the Yang tribe, said there are no monsters in the south anymore. Do you think we should seize the opportunity and occupy an area? Although there are a lot of mushrooms here, they are not meat after all. There are other tribes around us competing for resources, which is very frustrating."
"But can we bear beastmen adapt to the warm climate in the south?" Cai thought more, "We have thick fur, which is an advantage in the north."
"Let me think about it." Yun frowned and thought hard.
Cai had a good idea. "Yun, why not let the other tribes go south? If the surrounding tribes leave, we will have enough resources."
"Cai, you're really smart. Who should I arrange to persuade them?"
"Of course it's Wu. She's a very smart person, isn't she?" Cai's eyes sparkled. "What she did last year was something no one expected."
Yun laughed, "Cai, you're right, let's send Wu!"
At first, the old chief had said they were of the same mother, that her strength lay in her, while her wisdom lay in her sister. She had initially resisted, but her decisions time and again had proven the old chief was right. Cai was indeed very wise. Why had she rushed back after being injured? It was because she was worried about Cai. She needed her, and so did the tribe.
In the tribe, weak people have no way to survive since birth, but the old patriarch and the witch doctor decided to keep Cai. In order to avoid being discovered and affecting the unity of the tribe, Cai was raised in the witch doctor's own cave. She never left the cave before she was seven years old. She only appeared in front of people after she was completely well. The explanation to the outside world was that it was the will of God, and the people in the tribe did not doubt it too much.
"Yun, for the safety of the tribe, you must get better as soon as possible and transform into a beast first."
"Okay. Cai, I will."
