Chapter 311: Inviting the Tribes
Chapter 311: Inviting the Tribes
When the others were speculating about what to do, the Eldest Senior Brother, accompanied by others, approached the Sheep Tribe.
It was daytime, and most of the adult members of the Sheep Tribe were out hunting with the tribe's leader. Only some elderly, weak women and children remained in the tribe.
Around the tribe, some members of the Sheep Tribe were searching and digging for edible wild vegetables.
The two semi-grown children herding sheep caught the Eldest Senior Brother's attention the most.
Two sheep were tethered by vines around their necks, being led by the hands of the two children. They were quietly grazing, showing no signs of wildness, indicating they had been tethered for a long time.
The Eldest Senior Brother was surprised that the Sheep Tribe also raised sheep.
No wonder they could produce so many sheep and sheepskins.
He thought this way but then felt something was wrong because he only found these two sheep after looking for a while.
Could it be that they started raising sheep after discovering what their tribe raised?
He speculated in his mind.The Eldest Senior Brother and his group did not hide their tracks on their way here, so the Sheep Tribe members who stayed behind soon noticed their presence.
The peaceful and tranquil atmosphere was instantly shattered.
The people of the Sheep Tribe shouted in panic and ran into the cave.
Seeing the cave almost completely blocked, with only half of a woman's body poking out from inside, anxiously looking around at them, Tie Tou suddenly had the idea of capturing the Sheep Tribe as well.
It was clear that not only him but most of those who came with him had the same idea.
He mentioned this idea to the Eldest Senior Brother but was rejected.
On the one hand, fundamentally speaking, he opposed such opportunistic behavior. Their Green Sparrow Tribe was not that kind of evil tribe.
After all, the Sheep Tribe differed from the Bone Tribe, and the Sheep Tribe did not attack them.
On the other hand, the Green Sparrow Tribe temporarily didn't need any more outsiders.
The many people they had just obtained from the Bone Tribe would be enough for them to digest for a long time.
The Divine Child said this, and the Eldest Senior Brother noted it down.
The Eldest Senior Brother did not go to the Sheep Tribe's cave again but stopped here with his men and began to rest.
Seeing that the Eldest Senior Brother and his group stopped here without continuing towards the cave, the people of the Sheep Tribe felt somewhat relieved.
After all, they had done something wrong by following the leader.
In the afternoon, the leader of the Sheep Tribe returned from hunting with his people.
Originally in a good mood, he was almost scared out of his wits when he saw the Eldest Senior Brother and the others standing not far from the tribe. He almost dropped his prey and turned to run.
The events of the previous period had left a deep impression on him and the other members of the Sheep Tribe.
Seeing the sudden arrival of the Eldest Senior Brother, the leader of the Sheep Tribe thought it was over, and their attempt to take the Divine Child from the Green Sparrow Tribe had been discovered. Now that he knew the situation, he would bring people over to attack them.
Only after seeing the smile on the Eldest Senior Brother's face and realizing they had only brought a few people did his heart gradually calm down.
The leader of the Sheep Tribe wanted to hug the Eldest Senior Brother and pat each other's shoulders, but the Eldest Senior Brother shook his hand instead.
The Eldest Senior Brother's smile was natural and sincere, but the leader of the Sheep Tribe's smile was somewhat forced.
Even though he learned from the Eldest Senior Brother's subsequent words that a handshake was warmer and more expressive of goodwill than a hug and patting shoulders, his smile still seemed somewhat forced.
After all, he had something to hide in his heart.
The Eldest Senior Brother explained the purpose of their visit to the leader of the Sheep Tribe and invited him to visit the Green Sparrow Tribe five days later.
He expected the Sheep Tribe leader to be as straightforward as the leader of the Green Sparrow Tribe, but to his surprise, after some thought, the Sheep Tribe leader politely declined. The reason was that their tribe didn't have much food, and if they went to the Green Sparrow Tribe would delay their food gathering and leave many people hungry.
Upon hearing the Sheep Tribe leader's response, the Eldest Senior Brother smiled. He thought it was a big deal but just about food.
He immediately assured them that when they visited, the Green Sparrow Tribe would provide food, and when they returned, they would receive a substantial amount of food, ensuring they wouldn't go hungry.
With this assurance, the Sheep Tribe leader found it difficult to refuse.
By now, he was confident that the people of this tribe were unaware of what he had done before. However, he still hesitated.
When the Eldest Senior Brother mentioned that the Green Sparrow Tribe, the Donkey Tribe, and the Bone Tribe would also be going simultaneously, the Sheep Tribe leader finally agreed.
In this process, the Eldest Senior Brother used some tricks taught by the Divine Child. For example, he told the Sheep Tribe leader that the Green Sparrow Tribe would also participate, even though he hadn't gone to the Donkey Tribe yet...
When asked what it was about, the Eldest Senior Brother didn't explain, only saying they would know when the time came.
After handing over a pottery board with five slots to the leader of the Bone Tribe and informing him how to use it, the Eldest Senior Brother didn't linger and left with his group.
He had to hurry to inform the Donkey Tribe.
Instead of going directly from the Sheep Tribe to the Donkey Tribe, they returned to the Green Sparrow Tribe first and then went to the Donkey Tribe.
They needed to replenish their food supplies, and on the other hand, he only knew the way from the Green Sparrow Tribe to the Donkey Tribe...
Watching the departing Eldest Senior Brother and his companions, all the people of the Sheep Tribe who knew what had happened before couldn't help but breathe a sigh of relief.
But soon after, they became puzzled again.
Because they didn't know why this tribe suddenly summoned them.
Four days later, the Eldest Senior Brother and his companions departed the tribe and arrived at the Donkey Tribe.
After continuous traveling, the Eldest Senior Brother and the others showed signs of exhaustion.
When they arrived, most of the adult members of the Donkey Tribe were also not in the tribe, and the reaction of the remaining members of the Donkey Tribe was similar to that of the Sheep Tribe.
However, the people of the Donkey Tribe didn't make the Eldest Senior Brother and his companions wait long. Before long, they returned from outside.
But one thing puzzled the Eldest Senior Brother: the people who returned from the Donkey Tribe not only brought back game, fruits, and wild vegetables but also carried many animal skins.
How come they were still carrying so many animal skins? Did they eat all the meat they hunted outside and only bring back the skins?
But they couldn't have eaten so much game, could they?
The Eldest Senior Brother and most of the others who came with him had this doubt.
The Eldest Senior Brother asked the leader of the Donkey Tribe about this matter, but as expected, the Donkey Tribe leader refused to say.
The Eldest Senior Brother didn't press further, just as he wouldn't tell others about how his tribe had so many pottery vessels and food.
He informed the leader of the Donkey Tribe of their intentions, and unexpectedly, the Donkey Tribe leader readily agreed without asking any questions.
