Chapter 107 What Did You Do Earlier?
After listening to them, Lin Yun was silent. He really didn't expect that they would refuse because of this. The key is that they think too much.
If the goddess hadn't come, he wouldn't know that they actually had this idea. It's amazing.
When did he become so great in their hearts?
He also paid a price to let them stay. It's hard for them to think of such a reason.
"Don't take it for granted next time." Lin Yun said helplessly. Erhu and the others shook their heads quickly. Now that they wanted to make such a mistake, they would definitely not think about it in the future. If there is anything, they will definitely ask directly.
"Now I ask again, do you want to join the White Tiger Tribe?" Lin Yun asked again, his eyes serious.
"Of course we are willing, but are they still willing to accept us?" Erhu said weakly. They just refused. What if they regret it?
Who wants to wander if they can live a stable life? And they can stay together, so they are naturally willing.
But they just refused. Are they still willing to accept them?
Lin Yun said unhappily, "Are you scared now? Why didn't you do that earlier?"
Shen Xiaoxiao smiled and said, "Yes, you don't have to worry." After a pause, "But there are some things I need to explain to you clearly."
Lin Yun knew what she was talking about, and took the initiative to tell Erhu and the others. After listening, Erhu said indifferently, "I thought it was something else. We don't mind it. You took us in and were willing to share some food with us. If we really need food, we will definitely not ask for the tribe's food. Don't worry."
Others also echoed that they did not participate in the tribe's food collection, and it was normal that they could not get the tribe's food. When they collect food together next time, they will naturally have their share.
In this way, Erhu and thirteen other people joined the White Tiger Tribe. Although the others were surprised, they did not say anything and had no opinions. After all, this also added strength to the tribe, and others did not dare to look down on them.
However, with more people, the speed of food consumption increased a lot, just as the witch doctor thought. Even though they would set traps to catch prey, not every time the prey would fall into the trap. In order to save food, the witch doctor asked them to stay in the cave when they had nothing to do, reducing the consumption of physical strength, so that they would not get hungry so quickly.
However, Erhu and the others also knew that because of the addition of them, the tribe's food was used up quickly, so they would reduce the amount of food when they used it, and only eat a little to maintain their physical strength. Seeing this, other people in the tribe asked them to eat more, after all, it was really uncomfortable to be hungry, but they didn't want to, and the witch doctor spoke up, saying that they didn't need them now, and it wouldn't be too late for them to stop eating when there was really not enough food in the future.
Although there were more than a dozen of them, there was still enough food to eat, and since they were allowed to join, there was no need to treat them differently.
Although the witch doctor and his friends didn't say anything, Erhu and his friends were embarrassed. They were thinking about this matter in their hearts. One day when the weather was still warm, more than a dozen people went up the mountain. They didn't want to do nothing and eat the food of the tribe. Anyway, they were used to hunting every day. Even if they couldn't catch big prey, they could still catch small prey. Even if they couldn't have a full meal, they could add some food to the tribe.
When the witch doctor knew about it, they had already left the tribe. Because there was less work to do in winter, they had time to do their own things. The witch doctor didn't restrict them. They would occasionally go up the mountain, and the witch doctor didn't interfere.
However, Erhu and his friends had just joined the tribe not long ago, and they had been eating the tribe's food. They were afraid that they would have a burden in their hearts. When they saw the prey, they would be eager for quick success and instant benefits, and it would be bad if they got injured.
"They also hunt frequently, so they must be very experienced. And with Xiao Yan and Lin Yun here, nothing will happen." Moreover, Qingshan, Shi An and several other good hunters also went together. Even if they couldn't hunt the prey, they could come back safely.
After hearing this, the witch doctor felt relieved that it made sense. The main reason was that they had already gone, so even if she was anxious, she couldn't do anything.
Today was a rare sunny day. People who didn't work were lazily basking in the sun. Even the cubs were let out to play. Soon the tribe was filled with the sounds of children playing and adults laughing. For a while, the atmosphere was very happy.
Bored, Shen Xiaoxiao thought of the bamboo forest of bamboo fungus they had found before. She had wanted to see if there were any bamboo shoots to dig before, but she had been delayed. Today, the weather was good, and she had the idea again.
If they were idle, they might as well go out to find something to eat. However, winter bamboo shoots were harder to dig than spring bamboo shoots. They only had tools made of stone, so they might not be able to dig many winter bamboo shoots back, but it was better than nothing. It was also good to go out and exercise their hands and feet. The weather was good, so they were not afraid of the cold when they went out.
As soon as she said it, Shen Xiaoxiao immediately found the witch doctor, "Are you going at this time?" The witch doctor was a little hesitant. Would it really be okay to go into the mountains at this time? She wasn't too worried about Xiao Yan and the others going into the mountains, but she was worried about the goddess going into the mountains. What if something went wrong?
"While the weather is good, I'll go take a look and stretch my arms and legs." Shen Xiaoxiao smiled, "Besides, there won't be any trouble with more people. If you're really worried, let a few males go with us." Of course, not everyone can leave the tribe at this time. Once there's no one in the tribe, those who are desperate or those who originally have bad intentions will know that there's no one in the tribe and will definitely want to rob them.
"We will be back before dark, and I can't stay in the tribe forever." Shen Xiaoxiao smiled. Even if she didn't go out now, she couldn't stay in the tribe forever.
In the end, the witch doctor compromised and let her take six males and ten females with her. Before leaving, he also told them to protect the goddess well, even if they didn't want food, they had to protect the goddess's safety.
They all agreed seriously. Shen Xiaoxiao shook her head and smiled helplessly. She was not that weak. Although she was not as good as them, she was much better than when she first came.
And she also brought some self-defense powder she made herself. Even if someone really wanted to catch her, a handful of medicine would make sure he fell down immediately.
But don't let them know about this. If more people know about it, it will be easy to spread it. At that time, it will be difficult for her to knock people down unexpectedly.
The witch doctor didn't know what she was thinking, and was still giving her instructions worriedly, as if they were going to do something dangerous. In the end, Shen Xiaoxiao couldn't stand it anymore and interrupted her. If she continued, she would be a waste in their hearts.
Soon they left the tribe, talking and laughing as they walked towards the bamboo forest.
"Goddess, what are the bamboo shoots you mentioned? Are they delicious?"
"Delicious, you'll know when we get there."
The others walked with anticipation. Although the witch doctor didn't say it, they also knew that the food in the tribe was very tight and might not be enough. Now they could find more food for the tribe, so they naturally wouldn't give up this opportunity.
