The melodious sound of the horn came from afar, followed by the sound of water waves lapping against the side of the ship, noisy human voices, and occasionally even the roar of some animals.
Below the stilted building, there is a relatively low space, which is usually used by the Crocodile Tribe people to tame some wild beasts and birds.
But because the stilted building in Qingye is connected to a stream, there are only a few fish inside.
At this time, Qingye stayed in this small space.
She had already taken a bath, washed her hair, and put on clean animal skin clothing, but her hands stained with fish scale juice could not be washed clean. Those dark green marks were very stubborn, and even rubbing them could only make them clear.
It becomes slightly lighter in color but cannot be completely removed.
When the noise outside became louder and louder, Qingye knew that the people from the Teng tribe had arrived.
"Forget it, if you can't wash it off, you can't wash it off. It's common to get blood when hunting. He shouldn't care about a little bit of ichthyosa juice, right?"
Although Qingye persuaded himself with such words, he still made a last effort before going out and rubbed his hands vigorously in the water, then opened the simple wooden door and left the stilted building.
"Woof woof chirp... woof woof chirp..."
On the tree, the cicada sang loudly in the last moments of its life.
A gust of wind blows by, and the aroma of ripe vegetables and fruits suddenly hits your face, refreshing your spirit and whetting your appetite.
The leaves of some plants have begun to turn yellow, making the green earth show the autumn atmosphere.
The people of the Crocodile Tribe are either busy harvesting fish scale fruits and vegetables, or busy processing various animal meats and fish meat. Although it is hard work, everyone has a smile on their face.
Seeing all this in the tribe, Qingye's heart gradually calmed down as he walked among them, no longer nervous or impetuous.
"Hey..."
The purple eagle circled several times outside the crocodile tribe, and finally landed on a high mountain to rest, preening its purple-gleaming feathers.
Qingye looked up at the purple eagle on the mountain in the distance, feeling a little happy, and even imagined that one day he could ride the purple eagle and fly around in the sky.
She has an adventurous personality, and flying high in the sky on a large eagle is particularly attractive to her.
When she walked out of the residential area and came to the outskirts of the tribe, she saw the large ship of the Vine Tribe and countless Vine Tribe warriors, like ants, moving things from the ship to the shore one after another.
"The wooden boats of the Vine tribe seem to be bigger than before."
"They have so many goods, and many of them have never been seen before."
"Where is this vine tribe? Why have I never heard of it before?"
There were many people watching on the river bank, including people from the crocodile tribe and people from nearby tribes who came to do business. Everyone was talking about it.
Qingye passed through the crowd, and the comments kept coming, but she didn't seem to hear them.
Because she has heard these discussions countless times, now all her attention is focused on the warriors of the Vine Tribe.
Her eyes kept searching among the Vine Tribe warriors, and finally, she saw the familiar figure as she wished - Jiang Xuan.
At this time, the leader of the crocodile tribe, Cimu, had already led his people to greet Jiang Xuan, who had just got off the boat. He greeted Jiang Xuan warmly, his face full of sincerity.
Jiang Xuan chatted familiarly with Cimu, introducing him to the goods he brought this time, while stuffing gifts for Cimu and the people he brought with him.
After receiving the gift, everyone, whether it was Cimu or the warrior leaders of the Crocodile Tribe, smiled happily. Even if they were still wary of the Teng Tribe in their hearts, they had to maintain their enthusiasm on the outside.
Under the leadership of Ci Mu, Jiang Xuan and several warriors around him were invited into the crocodile tribe's residence and left the noisy crowd.
As for the goods and gifts brought by the Vine Tribe, there are dedicated people responsible for connecting with the Crocodile Tribe.
When he was about to enter the crocodile tribe's residential area, Jiang Xuan felt keenly that someone was watching him, so he turned around and looked over.
When he saw Qingye, his vigilance suddenly became relieved, and he smiled and waved to Qingye.
When Jiang Xuan smiled at her, Qingye felt that the surroundings suddenly became quiet, and there were only two of them left in the world. This feeling was so wonderful.
After a long time, Qingye came back to his senses. At this time, Jiang Xuan had already followed Ci Mu into the crocodile tribe's living area.
Qingye's face turned slightly red. She was thinking about finding some opportunity to be alone with Jiang Xuan later, and left the crowd and walked back.
What she didn't know was that not far behind her, a young warrior from the crocodile tribe had been paying attention to her. When he saw Jiang Xuan greeting Qingye, he was so jealous that he almost went crazy.
This young warrior is Heijia.
Heijia has always been fascinated by Aoba, and has actively pursued her countless times. Even though he was rejected many times, he still did not give up.
In fact, in addition to Heijia, many warriors from the Crocodile Tribe liked Qingye, and there were also many active suitors, but Qingye looked down on them and rejected them one by one.
If Aoba remains in this state and does not accept anyone, Heijia can accept it and even continue to have illusions about his persistent pursuit.
However, Jiang Xuan appeared.
He rode a huge purple eagle to the crocodile tribe, and successfully captured Aoye's heart by relying on his incomparable strength and the experience of the Communist Party's adversity in Blackwater Lake.
At that moment, Heijia's fantasy was shattered.
It turns out that Aoba doesn't dislike men, she just doesn't like him.
Therefore, when Shi Loach and others came to the Crocodile Tribe some time ago, Heijia took the initiative to provoke them, hoping to regain some face from the people of the Teng Tribe.
However, he failed again. Stone Loach's archery skills were more exquisite than his, and he was suppressed by force.
The successive blows made Heijia so depressed that he wanted to vomit blood. He suffered a certain degree of psychological problems, and his personality changed from stubbornness to paranoia and distortion.
He stood there, watching Qingye go away step by step, and then glanced at the direction Jiang Xuan left, and a vicious plan gradually formed in his heart.
Heijia said in an extremely suppressed voice: "What I can't get, no one can get it!"
…
At night, Jiang Xuan and some warriors from the Teng tribe were warmly entertained by the Crocodile tribe. All kinds of central delicacies were laid out and accompanied by enthusiastic female warriors from the Crocodile tribe.
After eating and drinking, the warriors of the Vine Tribe and the Crocodile Tribe, who looked at each other, left directly together to spend a wonderful night that belonged only to each other.
Everyone didn't care, just laughing and joking.
In the primitive era when population mobility was extremely low, it was very important to use outsiders to improve the genes of tribal people.
After the banquet, the warriors of the Vine tribe who had not left were arranged to rest in a nearby stilted building.
Qingye took the opportunity and took the initiative to take over the task of leading Jiang Xuan to rest from the leader.
Cimu looked at Qingye, then at Jiang Xuan, and agreed with a smile.
For Ci Mu, the reproduction and expansion of the tribe's population is the most important thing. No matter who Aoba is with, as long as the child is born in the Crocodile tribe.
