Chapter 27 Mission Completed
V three-in-one
"call out!"
The sound of breaking air continued.
Although the cannibals didn't understand where this thing came from, they all saw the force with which it penetrated the ground.
If you are accidentally stabbed, it can penetrate a person.
Wuming pulled out a wooden arrow not far away. The small hole left on the ground was very deep. He looked at the sharp head carefully.
It's just a piece of wood. How can it have such powerful strength after being sharpened?
"boom!"
"call out!"
There were large rocks mixed in with the wooden arrows that attacked the cannibals. The rocks fell from mid-air with tremendous impact force.
Several thatched huts had holes in them caused by rocks.
The giant beast was getting closer and closer, and more and more stones and wooden arrows were attacking the tribe.
"Priest! There is someone on the beast's hand!"
"There's also one on my shoulder!"
"Priest, the things that attacked the tribe were all emitted from the hands and shoulders of the giant beast!"
The cannibals finally saw what was attacking them, but after seeing it clearly, they became more confused.
How could a giant beast help humans?
Looking at the tribesmen who were fleeing in panic after being hit by wooden arrows and stones, Wuming frowned and said, "Hunting team, guard team, pick up stone spears and follow me!"
Dahei stopped not far from the cannibals. Its shoulder was itchy and it wanted to scratch it with its claws.
But as soon as it showed signs of moving its hand, the two-legged beast that was in charge of its food scolded it, "Dahei! Don't move!"
Because Dahei tilted slightly, Shen Nong lost his balance and fell to the side.
Ze raised his hand to grab it, and Shen Nong saw a hand reaching out from the corner of his eye. He just felt that his hand grabbed something soft.
He pulled hard and used the force to stabilize his body.
"Tear".
After standing firm, Shen Nong heard the sound of something tearing.
He looked up and saw that the fish-skin coat on Ze's body was missing a sleeve.
Ze took a step forward and leaned over, "Priest, are you okay?"
The cuffs are wide, and as Ze moves, his powerful chest and abdominal muscles are faintly visible.
Shen Nong unconsciously clenched the sleeve he had pulled down in his hand, the tip of his ear was stained with a light powder, and he pretended to be calm, "It's okay."
The big black hand was so sore that it kept humming in grievance.
Shen Nong also knew that Dahei had reached his limit, so he said, "Everyone go down first."
In addition to the hunting team, half of the guard team also came for this rescue.
However, the guards did not participate in the battle, but instead fired stones from a distance.
Shen Nong looked at the hunting team standing in a row in front of him with their backs straight.
Their hair was tied up with straw ropes, and they wore fish skin clothes, with leather ropes around their waists and bone knives on them.
After these days of training, this group of orcs have some of the solemnity, dignity and strict discipline of the interstellar war police.
Shen Nong was very satisfied with the result. The tribe was going to set up a formal army, and they would be the first batch.
"Afraid?"
Everyone straightened their bodies, looked forward, and said firmly: "Don't be afraid!"
"Okay! We'll meet the cannibals!"
The cannibal guards and hunting teams just rushed out at this time. One of them saw Shen Nong and called out, "Priest of the Mu tribe?"
Wuming looked towards the Mu tribe, although he had never seen the priest of the Mu tribe.
But when his eyes swept over a person, they fell directly on that person.
A voice in his head told him that this was the person.
Shen Nong felt a cold gaze staring at him. He looked up and a smile appeared at the corner of his lips.
Wuming frowned slightly. Is this person not afraid of him?
Wushan from the Cannibal Hunting Team raised his stone spear, pointed it at the Wood Tribe, and shouted, "People of the Wood Tribe, what do you mean?"
Shen Nong rubbed his ears, disliking the other person's loud voice. "I heard that the Salt Department sent a batch of meat people to the cannibals. We came here to ask the cannibals for that batch of meat people."
"What do orcs want to do with meat humans? Can't they eat them? Oh, I forgot, if orcs eat too many meat humans, they can't transform anymore."
Wu Shan sneered, "Why do the Mu tribe also want to join the cannibal tribe?"
Shen Nong didn't know that orcs couldn't eat their own kind. It turned out that cannibals couldn't transform. Was this the reason?
Autumn lasts only a dozen days, and winter comes in these two days.
Shen Nong didn't want to waste time arguing with the cannibals, he wanted to rush back to the tribe before dark.
"Do it."
At a command, the hunting team rushed out at such a speed that the cannibals didn't have time to react.
Wuming sneered and activated the blood in his body to suppress the orcs attacking the Mu tribe.
Black lines spread from the cheeks to the palms, and the blood surged.
Shen Nong looked at the changes in the other person's body and thought that this should be the legendary blood suppression.
But the other party is destined to be disappointed.
Wuming saw that the people of the Mu tribe did not slow down at all, and were even speeding up.
In a flash, they were already in front of us.
"ah!"
With a scream, Wushan's hand twisted into a strange shape and he lost his combat effectiveness.
"ah!!"
Screams rang out one after another, and the cannibals slowly fell down.
They never knew that orcs without form could be so powerful.
Wuming looked at the priest of the Mu tribe in shock. The other party had a lazy expression, with his hands folded across his chest, and also looked at him.
The mockery in their eyes made Wuming realize that the people of the Mu tribe had no intention of transforming at all.
They want to defeat the cannibals in human form.
Impossible! This is impossible!
Without their beast forms, orcs are useless and they have no chance of defeating the cannibals.
But the endless screams in his ears made Wuming's firm idea become vulnerable.
Wuming looked in disbelief as the people of the Mu tribe shuttled around their fellow tribesmen, moving quickly and with ruthless accuracy.
They always strike with one blow and never drag their feet.
The sharp stone spear was no match for the bone knife at this moment.
Where the bone knife cut, blood gushed out and the injured person was no longer able to fight.
It was the first time that Wuming realized that the bone knife was so powerful.
Stay calm, he can't panic.
The Wood Tribe orcs that attacked them, both men and women, were tall.
Their priests are so thin, they must be easy to deal with.
As long as the Wood Tribe Priest is captured, the cannibals will win.
Wuming calmed the surging blood and energy in his body and no longer suppressed the orc's transformation.
He pulled over several tribesmen who were nearby and signaled them to attack the priest of the Wood Tribe not far away.
Shen Nong glanced at the cannibal priest rushing towards him and tried hard to hold back his laughter.
“Swish!”
Vines grew all around, covering the cannibals that were rushing towards them.
Wuming looked up at the dancing vines and his heart sank. Not good!
But it was too late, he couldn't escape now even if he wanted to.
The vines tied up him and several other tribesmen. He was lifted up by the vines and brought to the presence of the Wood Tribe priest.
This vine is very strange. Wuming was surprised and asked, "Can you control vines?"
Shen Nong didn't answer. He raised his hand, put his index finger and middle finger together, and tapped lightly.
The vine immediately dropped from mid-air, bringing the two people to the same level.
At this time Wuming had already got the answer, and his heart was filled with shock.
The ability to manipulate plants..
Same as the one who gave him bloodline suppression.
"What is your relationship with the High Priest of Beast City?"
Shen Nong saw that the other person looked like he had something on his face, so he asked mysteriously, "Why don't you guess?"
Wuming stared at the other person's face. The man said that only the bloodline of the high priest could control plants for one's own use.
However, the priest of the Wood tribe did not look like that man.
But it is normal for brothers to not be like each other. After thinking about it, Wuming threw out an answer.
"Are you also the High Priest's child?"
Shen Nong let out a "tsk". The word "also" was said very cleverly.
How come this cannibal priest has met the offspring of the Beast City High Priest before?
"Have you met anyone else besides me?"
Shen Nong tried to use the same trick to trick the other party into talking, but unexpectedly the other party stopped talking.
Wu Ming's heart sank to the bottom of the valley. It seemed that the priest of the Mu tribe was also the descendant of the high priest.
He almost let the cat out of the bag just now. If that person knew that he had revealed that the other person had been here, he would definitely be killed without a burial place.
The saw-mouthed gourd couldn't be asked any questions, and Shen Nong was too lazy to ask.
He changed the question, "Where are the people sent by the Salt Department?"
Wuming snorted and turned his head away.
Shen Nong understood what the other party meant and didn't waste any words.
"You don't want to say it, right?"
He raised his hand to let the vines move the man away, and shouted to Dahei and the guards on standby behind him: "Dahei, smash the cannibal for me!"
"Guards, get ready. Aim for the cannibal's house. Throw stones!"
Dahei roared towards the sky with great momentum.
He ran towards the cannibal's house, kicking them one by one.
Shen Nong smiled evilly at Wu Ming and said, "Now that the house is gone, let's see how you will survive the winter."
Shen Nong lifted the vines so that Wuming could see clearly what was happening below.
Wooden arrows and stones were thrown across the fighting area into the cannibals.
The hut was severely damaged by stones and wooden arrows, and wherever the giant beast passed, both the cave and the hut were in ruins.
The thatched huts were almost destroyed, and the caves were either blocked by huge rocks or smashed by the giant beast's punches.
Winter is coming, and if this continues, they will really have no place to live in the winter.
Wuming gritted his teeth and shouted, "At the far east!"
The cannibals were frightened by the stone-throwing from the very beginning.
The blood suppression that I had always relied on was ineffective, and an unknown fear arose in my heart.
They were also suppressed by the well-trained and skilled Mu tribe, and were already on the verge of defeat.
Now even the priests have been arrested, their homes have been smashed, and their mentality has collapsed.
Shen Nong looked at the cannibals who were starting to give up and shook his head.
Taking this as a lesson, he would have to improve the tribesmen’s ability to withstand pressure after returning.
This kind of situation must not happen in the Mu tribe.
Cannibal Trading Office.
Lang Yu's ears moved slightly, "Lu Chun, that sound is getting louder and louder."
"I know." Lu Chun replied, "The ground is shaking more and more."
Lang Yu held his breath and listened, "Why do I feel like there's a giant beast coming?"
Lu Chun retorted without thinking, "The beast tide has passed, where did the giant..."
"No." Lu Chun thought of the giant beast he encountered when he was trying to steal the salt stone from the Mu tribe. "The Mu tribe has one."
Hearing this, Lang Yu expressed his guess, "Now that you mention it, I vaguely heard the sound of fighting. Could it be that the Wood Tribe and the Cannibals are fighting?"
"How is it possible?" Lu Chun stared at the sky. The more she thought about it, the more she felt that it was impossible. She replied, "You may have heard that sound wrongly. It wasn't the sound of a giant beast, nor was there any sound of fighting. Even the Salt Tribe doesn't dare to fight the cannibals, let alone the Wood Tribe."
What Lang Yu is most proud of is his super hearing, "My ears can't be wrong."
Lu Chun was seriously injured and spoke for a long time, and was very tired.
She closed her eyes and hummed unconsciously, not having the energy to speak anymore.
Lang Yu listened to the sound attentively, feeling the vibrations becoming increasingly stronger.
He couldn't turn his head, so he could only stare at the sky, moving his pupils and looking around in a small area.
Dahei searched around and finally saw a group of small black shadows not far ahead.
It walked forward quickly, and when it got closer, it squatted on the ground to get a better look.
Suddenly, an extremely huge bear face popped up in front of Lang Yu's eyes. He was so frightened by the visual impact that he subconsciously wanted to run away.
As a result, the wound was pulled and he grimaced in pain.
"Luchun! Maxia! Lushui! Wake up! The giant beast from the Wood Tribe is really coming!"
Lang Yu was injured and his voice was very small. He only had enough strength to call the three people around him.
Lu Chun was closer, heard the most clearly, and woke up the fastest.
She didn't believe that the people of the Wood Tribe would dare to come to the cannibal tribe, and he must have misheard the sound of the giant beast.
When she heard Lang Yu calling her, she ignored him.
Dahei confirmed that there were many injured people here, and he recognized some of them, as they were the ones who had robbed him of salt stone before.
Dahei stood up and waved in the direction of Shen Nong.
“Roar! Roar, roar, roar!!”
Two-legged beast that gave Dahei meat to eat! Come quickly! Dahei has found someone!
After hearing the sound, Lu Chun quickly opened his eyes.
He turned his neck with difficulty and saw the familiar giant beast.
No way, are the people from the Wood Tribe really coming to be cannibals?
But what are they doing here?
Lu Chun couldn't figure it out, but it had nothing to do with these flesh people.
She closed her eyes again, resigned herself to being her own meat, waiting to be eaten by the cannibals.
Shen Nong arrived quickly. He learned from Bao Qiu that the flesh people sent to the cannibal tribe would endure deadly torture.
Shen Nong could also see it from Bao Qiu's injuries.
If we don't hurry up, these people will probably die from their injuries.
The vines, with their supernatural glow, fell on the wound that was so deep that the bone could be seen. Lang Yu remained conscious the whole time and immediately felt the pain in his leg wound quickly ease.
He turned his head with great effort, and when he saw Shen Nong, Lang Yu's heart began to beat wildly.
It was the priest of the Wood Tribe who saved them.
Lu Chun also felt the intense pain slowly easing. She closed her eyes peacefully, "Lang Yu, I can no longer feel the pain in my body. I should be dying soon. That's great. If I die, I won't..."
It doesn't hurt anymore.
Lang Yu interrupted Lu Chun and said, "You are not going to die. It was the priest of the Wood Tribe who saved us."
"Well, I'm not dying..."
Lu Chun opened her eyes suddenly and saw someone standing beside her out of the corner of her eye. She turned her head and saw the priest of the Mu tribe.
Shen Nong didn't want to use too many of his supernatural powers here, and these people didn't have a blood pact with him.
But because they were seriously injured, they were simply treated with supernatural powers to ensure that they would not die on the way.
"Take them away."
Dahei was carrying a crossbow and a catapult on his back, which were secured by Shen Nong with vines.
He held the twelve injured orcs from the Yan tribe in his arms.
After rescuing the people, Shen Nong ordered everyone in the Mu tribe to gather and prepare to return to the tribe.
Hu Xiao looked at the cannibals who were almost beaten to pieces, and asked in confusion: "Priest, why don't we capture all the cannibals?"
Shen Nong looked at Hu Xiao with the eyes of a prodigal son, "Prodigal son, bring them back to the tribe, and eat and drink our food?"
When Hu Xiao thought about feeding the cannibals with the tribe's delicious pickled meat, he immediately waved his hand and said, "I won't feed them. Capture them and bring them back to work for the tribe."
Catch the cannibals and bring them back to work?
Shen Nong chuckled. These people are born rebellious. If they don’t obey you, they will cause trouble for you in any minute.
Let them fend for themselves here for a winter and wait until they behave themselves.
Shen Nong laughed and scolded Hu Xiao, "Are you stupid? You have to eat if you work, otherwise you will starve to death."
Hu Xiao scratched his head, it seems so.
Then I won’t catch him.
The smile on Shen Nong's face had not yet faded when white specks suddenly appeared in front of his eyes.
His smile froze on his face, the temperature around him dropped suddenly, and the air became cold rapidly.
Pure white snowflakes slowly floated above the sky. Shen Nong stretched out his palm to catch a snowflake. It felt slightly cool, but the temperature of his palm quickly melted the snowflake.
The short autumn seems to have never come, and the cold winter has arrived.
"Go back to the tribe!"
Shen Nong shivered. He was only wearing a fish-skin coat, which could only provide limited protection against the cold wind.
The orcs of the Wood Tribe transformed one after another in order to return to the tribe before the snow completely covered the earth.
Dahei was holding the injured orc in his arms and carrying a crossbow and a catapult on his back.
Hu Xiao saw that the injured orcs from the Salt Tribe were covered in dirt. Their priests were very clean and would definitely not be able to stand it.
He transformed into a beast and said to Shen Nong, "Priest, get on my back!"
Shen Nong, who originally wanted to squeeze in Dahei's arms, immediately changed his mind. He would rather be cold.
Shen Nong stood there for a while thinking about how to get on Hu Xiao's back. Hu Xiao was quite big, even if he squatted down, he was still quite big, so it was a bit difficult to get on.
He chose to take Shen Nong's hesitation into consideration.
When Shen Nong tried to grab the fur on Hu Xiao's neck and shoulders with his hands and raised his foot to step over him, he flew into the air.
A golden light flashed, and Shen Nong closed his eyes.
He could clearly feel the strength and temperature coming from his waist.
After his feet were off the air, because he had no foothold, Shen Nong subconsciously raised his hands and hooked the other person's neck.
Ze's body stiffened slightly, and he landed steadily on Huxiao's back in an instant, "Priest, you can open your eyes now."
Shen Nong opened his eyes when he heard the sound, and huge wings wrapped around him, blocking the wind and snow.
There were dots of golden light on the wings, which looked incredibly dreamy.
Ze looked down at the priest in his arms, only to see that his beautiful eyes were filled with joy.
But when the other person looked at him, there was a hint of unnaturalness in his joy.
Shen Nong gently rubbed his waist, which was held by Ze. He didn't know whether he disliked the touch or wanted to brush away the strange feeling in his heart. He was annoyed by the inexplicable emotions in his heart, and said in an unhappy tone: "Don't do this next time, I can climb up by myself."
Ze knew that he seemed to have upset the priest. He nodded slightly, frowned, and looked at Shen Nong at a loss as to what to do.
Shen Nong felt Ze's focused and serious yet somewhat sad gaze, and sighed helplessly, forget it, it wasn't his fault in the first place... I shouldn't have been so mean...
Shen Nong, who had just convinced himself, fell headfirst into Ze's arms due to inertia the next second. Hu Xiao seemed to sense something and shouted, "Ze, hold on to the priest! I'm running very fast, and the priest will fall if he can't sit still!"
After shouting, he didn't wait for a reply, his speed remained the same, and even seemed to be accelerating. They had to return to the tribe as quickly as possible, otherwise they would be frozen to death outside.
Shen Nong's face and ears were hot. He rested his head on Ze's chest, unwilling to look up.
"Tiger Xiao runs very fast, and it will be even colder later." Ze Ye did not move, lowered his head and asked in a low voice: "Priest, can I hold you?"
Shen Nong didn't say anything. He could feel the wind blowing past him getting colder and colder. He felt even more embarrassed and annoyed when he thought about how he couldn't even sit still.
In the end, he didn't let himself get away from his body. "That's fine..."
Ze raised his hand and directly embraced the person in his arms. His strong arms held the thin shoulders of the person in his arms. Shen Nong was surrounded by the warmth coming from Ze's body. He couldn't help but put his face against Ze's chest again.
So warm...
The snow fell heavily.
In a short while, the surroundings were covered with a thin layer of white.
Everyone moved forward quickly in the wind and snow.
When we returned to the tribe, there was already half a foot of snow piled up on top of the half-built tribal wall.
It spread its wings, and the snow on its wings fell down.
Shen Nong looked at the snow-covered scene in front of him, and the feeling of traveling through time and space became obvious again.
In the interstellar era where he lives, it is spring all year round. Except for going to planets where it snows, he has never seen snow.
However, because he was doing plant research, the weather on the snowy planet was extremely cold and no plants could survive.
Therefore, he did not go.
So this was his first time seeing the world covered in snow.
As he was thinking about what happened before, he was lost in thought when he heard Ze ask, "Priest, can I take you down?"
Shen Nong had just come out of the warm embrace, and his head was a little immobile due to the cold wind. He nodded subconsciously, not wanting to exert himself any more, so he decided to stay still if possible.
Then his waist was grasped again.
He flapped his wings and landed slowly.
Shen Nong quickly jumped out of Ze's confinement. Why did he agree to it...Wu Nuan Township is harming people!
The warmth in Ze's arms dissipated, and the wings behind him turned into golden light and completely disappeared.
Hu Xiao put on his fish-skin coat. He walked around behind Ze and asked in surprise, "Ze, how come your wings didn't damage your coat?"
Ze replied in a deep voice: "Wings don't grow naturally."
Hu Xiao was surprised and asked, "It's not grown? Then why can you fly and shield the priest from snow?"
Ze shook his head. He himself couldn't explain it clearly.
Shen Nong could understand what was going on.
Consider the golden mantras on both sides of your shoulder blades as energy bodies.
This energy body can transform into the shape of wings. After transformation, it appears to be growing from the shoulder blades, but in fact the connection is just an illusion.
Other places are solid, so they can fly and shelter from wind and rain.
As long as the energy body is controlled and retracted, the wings will turn into golden spells again.
Shen Nong looked at Ze thoughtfully. If it were in the interstellar space, Ze would definitely be captured and taken to a research institute for study.
——
Bao Qiu stood guard at the door of his mud house, watching the snow getting thicker and thicker, and his mood became heavier and heavier.
It was snowing heavily outside, and the guards wouldn't let him wait at the city wall.
If his leg was okay, he could follow the priest to rescue the cannibals.
Winter came without warning, and I don't know if the priests can come back.
"Bao Qiu! The priest is back!"
Yang Lei knew that Bao Qiu was worried, so he came over from the city wall to inform Bao Qiu.
"The people who were with you in the Salt Department have also been rescued. Go and have a look. They are in the big mud house in the square."
The big mud house in the square was built behind the tribal warehouse and was completed not long ago.
This mud house is mainly used by Shen Nong for office work, and his cave has completely become a private space.
Only Tuanzi could go in and out, and Zedu could only guard outside.
However, now the beast-formed Ze can also enter and exit Shennong's cave.
Bao Qiu came limping over, leaning on a crutch.
He saw the familiar face lying on the ground and exclaimed in surprise: "Wolf Rain!"
Along the way, Lang Yu really wanted to ask the priest of the Mu tribe why he saved them.
However, the priest of the Wood Tribe did not say a word, and they were held by the giant beast, so they couldn't ask the beast what was going on.
He could only guess that the most likely scenario was that Bao Qiu asked the Mu tribe to rescue them.
It's just a guess, Lang Yu can only hold on to a glimmer of hope and wait for the final answer.
Now, his guess was confirmed, and Lang Yu couldn't suppress his excitement.
Bao Qiu is not dead!
And except for his legs, all the injuries on his body have healed.
"Bao Qiu! You are here after all!"
Lu Chun rubbed her eyes. She couldn't believe what she saw. "Bao Qiu, is it really you?"
Bao Qiu nodded, "It's me."
He looked at Shen Nong who was sitting on a wooden chair, threw away his crutches, crossed his hands in front of his chest, bowed his head and said gratefully: "Bao Qiu swears to follow the priest until death!"
Shen Nong supported his chin with one hand and looked at Lang Yu and others who were stunned by Bao Qiu's actions.
He smiled, "Your injuries cannot be delayed for too long. If you delay it any longer, even I can't save you. You don't want to become orcs with broken legs and arms, do you?"
Lang Yu and others shook their heads subconsciously. Of course they didn’t want to.
Shen Nong didn't beat around the bush and told them directly, "Bao Qiu and I have made a blood pact, and from now on we are all members of the Mu tribe. If you want me to treat you, you have to make a blood pact with me."
Lang Yu's mouth was faster than his brain, and he asked, "What will happen if it doesn't happen?"
Shen Nong looked at Lang Yu. Although he looked lazy, his tone was full of unquestionable momentum. "Just throw it out."
Lang Yu has always followed Bao Qiu since he was a child. Bao Qiu has made a blood pact with the priest of the Mu tribe, so he will definitely not refuse.
What's more, his life was saved by the priest of the Wood Tribe.
"Priest! I'm married!"
He looked at Lang Yu and smiled, "I like obedient people."
Ze's eyes fell on Shen Nong, and he silently remembered in his heart, hmm... the priest likes obedient people...
Lu Chun had no objection. She had already prepared for death, and it was the priest of the Mu tribe who allowed her to continue living.
Lu Chun was willing to be loyal to the priest of the Wood Tribe.
Langyu and Luchun are the strongest orc warriors in the hunting team besides Baoqiu.
The three strongest orc warriors all agreed, and naturally the others all agreed as well.
Moreover, they felt that they would be able to live a good life in the Mu tribe.
Ever since they came in, they found that the people of the Wood Tribe were different.
They wore animal skins in winter, and their arms were wrapped with a piece of animal skin, which was then tied with straw ropes.
The same method is applied to the body and legs. In order to prevent air from entering, several pieces of animal skins are used to wrap them inside and outside.
Because the animal skins are big and small, they cannot move after wrapping the skins, otherwise the skins will fall off.
But the people of the Mu tribe were wrapped in animal skins all over their bodies, but they were not tied with straw ropes.
Moreover, the people of the Wood Tribe can move around easily, and their animal skins won’t fall off.
There are also the "grass houses" of the Wood Tribe, which are warmer than caves.
They were in the Salt Department and were not given any caves, so the thatched hut they lived in was very cold and drafty on all sides.
It always collapses under the weight of snow.
These two things alone were enough for them to stay in the Mu Tribe, not to mention that the priest of the Mu Tribe saved them.
The blood contract was formed quickly. After Shen Nong healed his wounds, he began to treat the injuries of Lang Yu and others.
The superficial injuries healed quickly, but Shen Nong could only heal most of the organ damage. His ability level was not enough to restore a person to his original state.
Fortunately, Tu Dong collected a lot of herbs, and Shen Nong prepared medicine for them and asked them to take care of them slowly.
With the addition of Baoqiu and Langyu, Shen Nong is still missing one person to complete the system task.
——
The wind was cold and the snow was falling heavily.
Smoke was rising from every mud house in the Mu tribe.
A small fire pit was placed in the earthen house, and the fire pit was surrounded by wood in a triangle, which was very stable.
A clay pot suspended by a straw rope is placed in the middle space.
There is always hot water boiling in the clay pot. Take out the sealed jam and brew a cup of sweet water.
In this cold winter, drinking a sip of hot sweet water will make your heart feel warmed.
The small fire pit is also connected to the earthen kang fire channel in the house. As long as the fire pit is burning, the kang will become hot.
The people of the Mu tribe are not worried about catching a cold this winter at all.
Not only did they have a heated kang in their house, but they also had a bumper harvest during the tribe's animal tides. The priests also taught them how to tan animal skins, so everyone got a lot of animal skins.
Put one bed on the kang and cover it with another, and wear a set of animal skin clothes from head to toe.
Each person had three sets of fish-skin clothes, covering him from head to toe.
Even the hats on their heads were made of a mixture of fish skin and animal skin, with animal skin extending on both sides to just cover the ears.
The fire in the small fire pit can also serve as a lighting source.
It was dim in the mud house, but it was okay during the day, as some light could get in by opening the thatched window a little.
But when it got a little dark, that little light was of no use at all.
With a small fire pit, all problems are solved.
Lang Yu was wearing animal leather gloves. The fur on the leather was incredibly soft. When he put his hands in it, he could feel the warmth.
The two ends of the gloves are strung with straw ropes and can be hung around the neck to prevent loss.
He touched the hat on his head with his gloved hand, and then touched the clothes he was wearing.
After they officially became members of the Mu tribe, the priest gave them this set of things.
Only then did I understand that what you wear on your body is called clothes, what you wear on your hands are called gloves, what you wear on your head is a hat, and what you wear on your feet are shoes.
There were too many names and he couldn't remember them all at once.
But being wrapped in these things from head to toe is really warm.
How could we have these things in the past in the Salt Department?
No, it should be said that these are not found anywhere except the Mu tribe.
The number of earthen houses was limited, and the people from the Salt Department were each two people in one earthen house.
Lang Yu was lying on the kang. The warmth from the kang was transmitted to him through the animal skins spread on it.
He couldn't help but sigh, "Baoqiu, I never thought that one day I would like winter."
Bao Qiu looked at the herbs boiling in the pottery pot, turned down the fire in the fire pit, and listened to the gurgling sound beside his ears. He responded, "The priest of the Wood Tribe is very powerful."
Lang Yu jumped up from the kang, and because he used too much force, the wound on his chest was affected, and he gasped a few times.
Bao Qiu knew that Lang Yu was always clumsy and was too lazy to say anything to him.
When the pain passed, Lang Yu crossed his uninjured right leg, rested his elbow on his thigh, and said seriously, "Bao Qiu, I want to join the Wood Tribe hunting team."
"The Wood Tribe's hunting team is different from ours."
Bao Qiu poked at the fire pit, and the flickering light of the fire shone on his face.
"Although we are level 7 orc warriors, if we really fight, we may not be able to defeat their level 6 orc warriors."
Lang Yu asked, "Are you afraid that the priest will think we are too weak and won't want us?"
Bao Qiu paused for a moment and nodded, "Yeah, Hu Xiao and the others are really amazing."
Lang Yu sighed, leaned back, and spread out like a big character.
"If only we had met the priest earlier. By following the priest, I could become as powerful as Hu Xiao and the others."
Lang Yu kept on rambling, "They even dared to fight the cannibals and dismantled the cannibals."
Bao Qiu heard this and thought it was not good. He quickly interrupted Lang Yu and said, "You repeat this many times every day. I have memorized it."
Lang Yu curled his lips, "By the way, I heard that Hu Xiao and the others have to go out for training every day now."
He said with envy in his eyes: "It seems to be a powerful thing taught by the priests. I really want to join the hunting team."
Bao Qiu also wanted to go, very much. Especially since Lang Yu would keep telling him every day how strong and good the hunting team of the Wood Tribe was.
He made up his mind and said, "When our wounds are healed, we will go and ask the priest."
"Okay!" Lang Yu was in high spirits. He shouted anxiously, "Is the Baoqiu medicine ready? I need to drink more today!"
"The priest said that drinking more won't make you better faster, it might even make your condition worse."
Lang Yu was embarrassed and said, "Oh..."
——
There is a depression in the mountain near the waterfall, with a large, flat open space.
"Faster!"
Shen Nong held a cane in his hand and stared at the members of the hunting team who were doing sit-ups while holding logs.
This training ground was found by Shen Nong under the guidance of the system, and it was not originally so big.
But when it comes to bugs in the card world's rules, they become familiar the second time.
Anyway, the rules only say that the system cannot open a backdoor for the host, but they don't say that it can't just dig in the mountains for fun.
On this basis, the system secretly helped to expand it a lot.
It is said that birds of a feather flock together. After the system got stuck with the bug, I sincerely felt that it was corrupted by the host.
It is no longer a three-good system now, alas..
The training ground is large enough for Dahei to move around freely.
For this reason, after completing their physical training, every member of the hunting team must take turns fighting Dahei in human form to familiarize themselves with combat techniques.
The long and cold winter has passed for more than a month without us noticing.
Shen Nong was completely buried in the animal hide, his head resting on Tuanzi's soft belly, sleeping soundly.
The sudden prompt sound from the system woke Shen Nong up.
[Ding, system prompts, it is detected that the Wood Tribe already has five level 7 orc warriors. ]
[Task 3 completed, a total of 250,000 infrastructure points awarded. Please check. ]
[Task 4: Do you want to reach the pinnacle of life? Then become the city lord! ]
[Side Quest 1: Come and plant vegetables and food. Status: Unfinished. Reward Infrastructure Points: 250,000]
[Side Quest 2: When the wind blows the grass low, release the cattle and sheep, raise chickens, pigs and geese. Status: Unfinished. Reward Infrastructure Points: 250,000]
[Side Quest 3: The trade route is invisible, someone has to go first. Status: Unfinished. Reward Infrastructure Points: 250,000]
[Host, please build a small city and develop agriculture, animal husbandry, and commerce. ]
【Total reward: 750,000 infrastructure points. 】
After hearing a row of system prompts, Shen Nong became completely awake.
He touched the side of his face and felt it was a little wet.
Shen Nong glanced suspiciously at the little leopard cub sleeping on his neck and shoulder, and thought to himself: Could this kid be drooling in his sleep?
The sound of gold coins deposited into the infrastructure points brought Shen Nong back to his senses. He stopped thinking about it and counted the balance of infrastructure points. He felt like he was getting rich.
Shen Nong couldn't wait to say, "Open the system mall and show it to me."
The size-changing spell from the world of immortal cultivation that Shen Nong had wanted before was worth six figures, and he bought it without blinking an eye.
I bought a few more sets of toiletries and a lot of honey and sugar.
Thinking that Ze liked to eat candies, I bought a lot of candies, including every flavor.
All piled up in the warehouse.
Looking at the host who was shopping like crazy and the rapidly decreasing infrastructure points, the system couldn't help but remind him: "Host! Check your tasks!"
Shen Nong then stopped and said faintly, "Search for the seeds for me."
The system quickly switched to the seed page, fearing that the host would go buy some unnecessary stuff again.
"Rice seeds cost 1,000 infrastructure points per pound, wheat seeds cost 1,000 infrastructure points per pound, and soybean seeds cost 100 infrastructure points per pound..."
"One pound of tomato seeds worth 100,000 infrastructure points?"
Shen Nong looked at the huge difference in the amount, thought for a moment and said: "Is it possible that rice and other crops already existed in the Orc world but have not been discovered? Besides, soybeans are very close to our Mu tribe."
The system did not give a direct answer, but asked: "Then host, will you buy it?"
Of course Shen Nong didn't buy it. He wasn't going to be taken advantage of. "In the spring, take someone out to look for tomato seeds. Can you sell them by half a pound?"
[If I say I can't, is that okay? ]
"Can't."
【Oh, that's possible. 】
Shen Nong smiled and said, "Promising."
According to the amount of infrastructure points on the system mall page, Shen Nong determined that there were soybeans, garlic, peppers, and corns near the Mu tribe.
A little further away there are rice and wheat.
The price of sweet potatoes and potatoes is thirty thousand. I think they already exist in this world, but they are just farther away.
Shen Nong still had a little over 120,000 in infrastructure. He glanced at the seed interface and finally decided: "I'll give you half a pound of corn and oilseed each."
The prices of these two items are the same as tomatoes, and the total is exactly 100,000.
There is still 20,000 yuan but you can’t buy anything on this interface, so just don’t buy it.
You don't want tomatoes?
Shen Nong asked back, "Do tomatoes make you full?"
【in spite of..】
When returning to the homepage, Shen Nong accidentally noticed that there was a small bottle-like icon on the homepage, which was glowing.
"What's this?"
After the system took a look, its tone revealed a sense of love but not getting it, "This is a new function released by the main system, nutrient solution."
[If the host uses infrastructure points to water the bound system with nutrient solution, the system will increase its energy. This energy is additional and will not be recycled by the system.]
The system looked at the small bottle cursor reluctantly. This function has been out for more than a month, and only the top system has been lucky enough to receive it.
I don't know when it will be able to taste the nutrient solution.
"How many infrastructure points per bottle?"
! !
Host, what does this mean?
The system froze for a moment, then quickly said, "2,500 per bottle."
As soon as I finished speaking, the system became unresponsive again.
Its host is a person who never makes a loss in business. He bargains with it every time he buys something and will not spend a single extra infrastructure point.
How could he possibly buy nutrient solution that costs 2,500 per bottle?
"Give me four bottles, and try them."
Upon hearing this, the system's excited code ran wild. It was afraid that it had heard it wrong, so it confirmed: "Host, do you want to buy me four bottles of nutrient solution?"
Shen Nong hummed, "Hurry up, stop dawdling."
[Okay!! I’ll go buy it right now!!]
The 20,000 infrastructure points were instantly reduced by another 10,000, and the sound of the system gulping down something rang in my ears.
[Host! This lychee flavor is delicious! ]
[Host! The peach and watermelon flavors are also delicious! ]
[Host! I like milk tea flavor the most! ]
[Host, I have finished drinking the nutrient solution, and now the code is full of power! ]
Shen Nong listened to the excited report from the system. He yawned, closed his eyes, and muttered softly, "I like it. I'll buy it next time I make money."
After hearing this, the system's eyes were filled with tears, "Wow, host, you love me!"
The next day, Shen Nong couldn't get up in the morning because he went shopping in the middle of the night, and he slept intermittently.
In the dim light, he felt a slight chill on the side of his face.
He brushed it away with his hand, and his fingertips touched something furry. He pressed and rubbed it a few times before going back to sleep.
When he woke up completely, it was already daybreak.
I had prepared hot water for him to wash up.
Because he got up late, when he went to the training ground, everyone had already started training on their own.
When Mao Yun saw the priest coming, he jumped in front of him happily and said with a smile: "Priest, I am now a level 7 orc warrior!"
Shen Nong took out a handful of fruit candies and handed them to the hero who helped him complete the task, "Not bad."
Mao Yun took the fruit candy. She had never seen it before. It was round, colorful and very beautiful.
“It’s delicious and very sweet.”
Mao Yun picked a beautiful orange one and put it in her mouth. Her eyes widened and she said excitedly, "This tastes like orange!"
Hu Xiao put down the big log and ran towards Mao Yun, "Mao Yun, let me have a taste!"
Tu Feng, Niu Mu and others also rushed over, wanting to taste what the priest gave them.
It’s small and round, but it tastes like orange.
Mao Yun put his hands behind his back and said, "This was given to me by the priest. If you want it, you can advance yourself."
To advance...how long do we have to wait?
Seeing everyone's enthusiasm for candy, Shen Nong said, "The one who wins the training every day can get a candy."
Several people were surprised and asked: "Really, Priest?!"
"When have I ever lied to you?"
Hearing this, Dahei on the side also started roaring.
Dahei also wants candy!
Because of the candy as an inducement, the quality of today's training was better than before.
Although it was pretty good before, Shen Nong always felt like something was missing.
Now I think that the lack of rewards will cause fatigue over time.
Ze was particularly ruthless today, every move was deadly, and he didn't give anyone a chance to fight back at all.
Dahei suffered losses at his hands and sat in front of Shen Nong, covering his nose and complaining.
He kept humming, but his bear eyes were staring at Shen Nong's cuffs.
Shen Nong could see through what this stupid bear was doing at a glance. It was so cute when Tuanzi acted coquettishly towards him.
It would be a disaster if Dahei acted like a spoiled child to him.
However, considering that Dahei had to be a sparring partner every day and worked hard, Shen Nong secretly gave it a few candies and warned it not to do it again next time.
Dahei nodded in agreement and licked the candy on his paw pad.
It’s just that Dahei was too big and the candy was too small, so he swallowed it as soon as it entered his mouth, and he didn’t taste anything.
Dahei looked at Shen Nong aggrievedly, but he didn't dare to hum anymore. He just looked at him.
Shen Nong thought about it and found it really funny. He had gone to great lengths to cheat someone into giving him something, but in the end he couldn't taste anything.
He rarely felt compassion for Dahei, "If you fight well tomorrow, I will let you taste the flavor of candy."
His big black eyes lit up and he roared twice.
Dahei wants candy! I will beat him well tomorrow! I will also give some to the cubs.
Ze was undoubtedly the winner today, and Shen Nong handed him a peach-flavored fruit candy.
Hu Xiao and his companions watched eagerly, feeling extremely greedy.
Several people said in unison: "I must have candy tomorrow!"
——
Water tribe.
"Priest, we are running out of salt rock."
The boy was wearing tattered animal skins and shivering with cold. "So soon?"
But on second thought, the salt rock that the Salt Ministry exchanged last time was already small.
As the tribe did not have enough animal skins to keep warm, they could only lick the salt stones a few more times to give themselves some strength to resist the cold.
It's normal to eat fast.
"How long can the rest last?"
"Ten days at most." The person who answered lowered his head and said in a muffled voice: "This is the remaining salt rock after counting those who froze to death."
After the young man pondered for a moment, he pointed to a corner not far away, where a few small pieces of salt were placed on a slightly flat stone.
"Bring out my salt rock and share it."
Niu Si refused without a second thought, "Priest, this is not possible! If we divide it, what will you eat?"
The young man laughed at himself and said, "As a priest, I didn't provide the tribesmen with enough food and animal skins to survive the winter. Even if you give me so much salt stone, I can't eat it."
"Priest, this is not your fault. It was the patriarch who did something wrong..."
"do not talk."
Niu Si also knew that he had said the wrong thing, so he immediately lowered his head, then he remembered something and said, "Priest, why don't we go ask the Mu tribe for help?"
"Wood tribe?"
"Do you remember the tribe we met when we were exchanging salt in the Salt Department?"
The boy nodded and said, "I remember there was a person who was very good-looking, with very short hair. He also dressed differently from us."
Niu Si replied, "That was the Mu tribe. Later, when I went out to collect salt, I met the collecting team of the Salt Department. They told me that the Mu tribe had exchanged a lot of salt stones."
"It seemed like they wanted to say something else, but they were interrupted by someone from the Salt Department, so I didn't hear it."
Niu Si thought, "The Salt Tribe must have a lot of salt stones that they haven't eaten yet, which is enough for the Salt Tribe. Let's go to the Mu Tribe for help, Priest."
Although the young man was tempted, he had to think more about it, "Niu Si, have you ever thought about what price we have to pay to get the Wood Tribe to help us after successfully exchanging so much salt stone from the Salt Department?"
Last time in the Salt Department, the boy knew that impulsiveness would not lead to good results.
Niu Si also knew that the Mu tribe would not help them for no reason, and they had nothing to offer that would be appreciated by the Mu tribe.
Salt stones and animal skins are both priceless treasures in winter.
What can the Water Tribe use to exchange for salt stone?
The young man looked at the vast expanse of white outside, which was just like his mood at the moment.
"Niu Si, the tribe hasn't awakened an orc for three years."
"Perhaps we should find a new priest."
