SFS Chapter 191 The Annoying Tribe
Chapter 191 The Annoying Tribe
Hu Yuan looked somewhat helpless. "In recent years, it has become increasingly difficult for everyone to survive. Most tribes can't even make a living, so who has the time to care about these things?"
Moreover, the law of the jungle has always been the survival rule of the orc continent.
Hearing this, Lin Baiyan felt a chill run down his spine. Luckily, he had come to the Cangyan Tribe. If he had been transported to a barbaric tribe that did not treat sub-beastmen as human beings, he didn't know if he could have survived for three days.
"But don't be afraid. With Lang Cang around, and moreover, you have the status of a young clan leader, they shouldn't dare to do anything before they figure out the details of your tribe."
Hearing Hu Yuan say this, Lin Baiyan felt no comfort at all, after all, their identities were fabricated and ultimately not safe.
Seeing Lin Baiyan's somewhat uneasy expression, Hu Yuan added, "You don't need to worry so much. Even if things get really bad, we and Hu Bing are still here. Although we don't usually get involved in these things, those two tribes won't dare to provoke us for the time being."
The Silver Tiger tribe, regardless of age, is extremely protective and unreasonable, while the snow mountain where the Silver Fox lives has a strange terrain; if you are not familiar with the roads, you will basically never get out.
That's why everyone tacitly avoided these two tribes.
After all, nobody wants to get entangled with a group of powerful but unreasonable tigers.
"I gave that son of the chieftain of the Fierce Boar Tribe a good beating!" Tiger Kite seemed to remember something, and swung his fist hard, his face quite fierce.
Lin Baiyan looked at her with some confusion, "Did he bully you?"
Tiger Kite grunted a couple of times, then slumped onto the table in a deflated manner. "He bullied Lan, so I beat him up."
Tiger Orchid is Tiger Kite's best friend in the Silver Tiger Clan.
"He doesn't even look at himself! With those three 'spare tires' around his waist, he has the nerve to ask Hu Lan to be his sub-beastman!" Hu Yuan suddenly stood up and said indignantly.
"He's a male orc in his thirties who's accomplished nothing, relying on his father every day, and he already has several sub-orcs in the tribe!"
"Then why are you looking so listless?"
Hu Yuan stammered and didn't say anything, but Lin Baiyan could tell from her expression, "What's wrong? Were you punished?"
"It was clearly his fault, but the high priest punished me instead!"
Lin Baiyan shook his head. "The old priest was only doing it for your own good, after all, you were the one who started it."
He knew without a second thought how hard Hu Yuan had hit him; otherwise, the old priest wouldn't have taken the initiative to punish her.
After all, in Lin Baiyan's memory, the old priest was kind, benevolent, gentle and composed.
Tiger Kite clearly knew as well, and she chuckled twice more, "I knocked his nose out of shape!"
……
After chatting for a while, the two sub-orcs quietly left the Azure Flame Tribe's tent.
By the sixth day, the trading market had gradually become lively, clearly having reached its peak.
Lin Baiyan had been in the tent for five days. Even though Hu Yuan and Hu Bing had secretly come over to chat with him a few times, it couldn't hide his annoyed mood.
He's about to suffocate!
In the past few days, Lang Cang and Xiong Fei have been working separately, quietly collecting animal meat from stalls in various tribes, and then secretly transporting it to their carts under the cover of darkness.
Before entering the trading market, Lang Cang and his companions secretly hid their cart on the mountain they had come from, not far from the trading market.
Lin Baiyan had no intention of letting outsiders see the cart, and he even hid the Silver Tiger Clan's cart inside as well.
"Shall I go with you to the market?" Lang Cang saw the sub-beastman looking bored as he tugged at the animal skin on the low table.
Hearing him say that, Lin Baiyan's eyes lit up instantly. "Aren't you going out to collect animal meat today?"
Wolf Cang and his companions were not without suspicion when trading for animal meat; they would usually go to the trading market during the day to observe the tribes there.
Then he would select a few tribes that looked decent to trade with. Life was tough these days, and most of the orcs that Lang Cang saw at the trading market were dark-skinned and emaciated. Even so, they would still exchange their meager rations for salt.
This shows how important salt is to orcs. Without salt, warriors would lack the strength to hunt, and this vicious cycle would eventually lead to the decline and destruction of the tribe.
So even if they don't have enough meat to eat, they will exchange it for enough salt.
Xiong Fei went out with Lang Cang several times, and after returning, he kept sighing, "Luckily, our tribe doesn't lack salt, otherwise we would have to go through the same thing as them."
The other orcs clearly agreed, saying, "Thanks to the priest, we wouldn't be able to survive without him and the chieftain."
Amidst the sighs of the orcs, Lin Baiyan gained a small amount of faith power.
At this moment, Lang Cang looked at Lin Baiyan's frustrated expression and his eyes were full of laughter. "Several tribes have been selected. Xiong Fei and the others can handle the rest. This time, we should be able to exchange enough food for our tribe for about three months."
"Is it difficult to take with you?"
Lang Cang nodded. "The cart we brought back can only carry some of it. We'll carry some ourselves, and for the rest, I took them to the deep mountains to dig a hole. We'll put the meat there temporarily and then sneak back to get it later."
The location of the trading market is determined on a temporary basis. This place does not belong to the territory of any tribe. Each tribe has a very strong sense of self-awareness regarding its own territory, and the annual trading market is basically held in an unclaimed place.
Lin Baiyan thought for a moment, feeling somewhat eager. He tentatively looked at Lang Cang and asked, "Shall we go out and take a look?"
Lang Cang chuckled and reached out to ruffle Lin Baiyan's soft hair. "I know you've been holding back for too long. Go take a look then."
He turned to look at the sub-beastmen who were in the tent with Lin Baiyan, "If you're going out, make sure you have two male beastmen with you. It's best to go out in groups."
The sub-beastmen were overjoyed to hear that they could go out for a stroll. Like Lin Baiyan, they had been cooped up for several days, and it was wonderful to be able to go out and get some fresh air.
Lin Baiyan put a bag of salt in his basket, and Lang Cang took the basket from him. "Let's go."
The two stepped out of the tent, and as soon as they were outside, Lin Baiyan's expression changed. "You actually dared to lock me up!"
Lang Cang knew he was getting into character again, so he said, "Young clan leader, I'm just following orders."
Lin Baiyan glared at him fiercely and walked forward first, saying, "I'm definitely going out for a stroll today!"
