Chapter 113 Trade Fair (7)
The next day, Xi Yiqi woke up just as the sky was getting a little brighter.
How did you fall asleep last night?
It seemed... it seemed that I fell asleep while staring at Arthur's back.
She slowly climbed up from the hide.
"Are you awake too?" a voice came.
Because she didn't sleep well, she had a little tinnitus and her brain was loading slowly. She didn't recognize whose voice it was at first, and she turned her head away woodenly.
Oh, it's Nia.
"Hmm..." I was about to ask him why he woke up so early, but I swallowed the words back.
There were dark circles under Nia's eyes, and it was obvious that she didn't sleep well.
Thinking of the scene before going to bed last night, he glanced sideways and saw Arthur still lying beside the fire with his back to them, seemingly still asleep.
"Brother Nia, why would Yamaye help us? Is it because of Uncle Arthur?"
Nishi Ichisu's first impression of Yamaha was not good, but he gradually realized that many things are not as simple as they seem, and first impressions are often unreliable.
She originally thought that Yamaha was too disdainful to take away the salt and other supplies, so they were able to escape unscathed that time. But now thinking back, if it was a barbaric wind, the consequences would have been absolutely disastrous...
Therefore, Yamaye must have some connection with the Yanyuan tribe, so I might as well ask about it.
For the first time, Nia felt a little embarrassed by the question she was asked.
He did not answer immediately, but frowned and thought for a long time before he slowly spoke: "Yamaye and Arthur are much older than me, and Arthur is not the type who likes to talk about things, so I don't know much."
"Yamaye is from the Shanqing tribe. Our tribe had dealings with the Shanqing tribe before we migrated."
Xi Yiqi asked, "Did the Shanqing tribe also migrate to the Dusk Rock Forest?"
Nia shook her head. "They are originally a tribe from the Dusk Rock Forest. The Shanqing tribe was originally located on the edge of the forest, not far from our continent..."
It was a rare opportunity to hear about the past of the Yanyuan tribe. When Xi Yiqi was about to interrupt and ask which continent the Yanyuan tribe came from and why they migrated...
Nia didn't give her the chance. He paused for a moment and quickly brought the topic back to Yamaye.
"The Shanqing tribe selects the next chief based on personal ability. I was still young at that time and I can't remember many things, but I only remember that Shanye and a female warrior named Shanya were highly regarded by the Shanqing chief."
"They are equally powerful and are always competing secretly, but the relationship between them is also extremely close. Once, when they came to visit with Chief Shanqing, I sneaked away with Wu Yu, Ze Yi and I to watch them fight..." When he said this, a smile and nostalgia appeared on his face.
At that time, they didn’t have to worry about food shortages, and warriors often competed with each other, and everyone loved to join in the fun…
"Although there are exchanges between the two tribes, it is not frequent. I am not in the same group of warriors as them. When I grew up, I often went out for training with the hunting team, so I saw them less often. But later I heard that Shan Mi became the next chief of the Shanqing tribe."
"after that……"
At this point, he took a deep breath, as if to squeeze out the heaviness from his chest, and continued, "Our tribe encountered a great change and had to migrate..."
"What exactly is the huge change?" This time, Nishi Ichi asked quickly.
Nia was silent for a moment, as if recalling the painful experience. He did not answer, but continued:
"After the migration, although we were in the same forest, we had almost no contact with the Shanqing tribe. The next time I heard the name Shanye was on the second winter day after the migration. That day, Arthur came back and said that he met Shanye."
"Arthur and another warrior were late in their search for prey and did not return to the tribe in time. When they were resting in a small cave, they heard a noise outside. When they went out, they found Shanye being chased by someone with blood all over her body, so they rescued her."
At this point, Nia suddenly said, "Yamaha is not a warrior who is easy to mess with."
Nishi Ichisu felt a little strange and was about to ask the reason.
"That's true." Arthur replied, not knowing when he had woken up.
"After we rescued Shanye that day, the first thing she did was to pick up a stone knife and cut open the man's stomach, dig out all his internal organs, and then bury them in the ground, muttering non-stop..."
"I will kill them all..."
Seeing Nishi Ichiki's expression change, Arthur seemed unwilling to let Yamaha be misunderstood, and continued to add: "Later I learned that the Yamaqing tribe was attacked, and the people chasing Yamaha were cannibals. That person ate the pregnant Yamami alive and spat out a bone to humiliate her..."
Nishi Ichisu suddenly remembered the little gesture of Yamaye stroking the ends of her hair from time to time when she came for the first time.
It seems to have bone ornaments tied to it...
Seeing that Nishi Ichi was hesitant to speak, Arthur seemed to have guessed her thoughts and took the initiative to speak: "Later, she drilled a small hole in the bone and tied it to the end of her hair..."
……
As soon as Arthur said this, there was a brief silence in the air.
Nia's face suddenly changed. She stood up abruptly and exclaimed, "So that's it! No wonder she was so angry when I broke that bone..."
Arthur gave Near a meaningful look.
Nishi Ichiki looked at the two of them flirting with each other, what was going on?
Is this something I can't listen to again?
Arthur continued, "I never saw her again in the following winters. The next time I saw her was in the Rock Tribe. I don't know what happened in between."
Perhaps only Yamaha himself knows...
Hearing this, Nishi Ichiki simply changed the question: "Isn't the Shanqing tribe a big tribe? How could it not withstand the invasion of the cannibals?"
Arthur nodded: "The cannibals have excellent weapons and a large population. Their strength is no less than that of the Shanqing tribe at that time."
"The entire Dusk Rock Forest is wary of the cannibals, especially after the incident with the Shanqing Tribe. The other tribes were afraid that they would be the next to suffer." Arthur continued to explain, "Fortunately, Chief Shanyan sent people to destroy the cannibals, which is why he can gain widespread support."
Nishi Ichiki frowned when he heard this and asked, "Was the Mountain Rock Tribe already very powerful at that time?"
How strong must one be now to have been able to wipe out the large and powerful cannibals at that time?
Although she had never been there, she couldn't help but feel frightened when she thought about it.
Arthur thought for a moment, then nodded hesitantly: "It should have been considered a large tribe at that time. As for other details, I don't know..."
Xi Yiqi asked some more questions, but Arthur couldn't answer them. After all, when the Rock Tribe wiped out the cannibals, they had just migrated and their minds were all on hunting. Information transmission here was not convenient, so he didn't know much.
Seeing that I couldn't get to the bottom of it, I stopped asking.
Although it was still dark, they had to pack up and return...
