Chapter 169
Chapter 169 – Slaves
Translated by Joycelyn
The travel team left from another river of the Pu tribe from the same waterway.
There were not many lotus leaves in this river. On each of the rafts stood someone.
Shao Xuan and Yu took the same raft. Shao Xuan was listening to the discussions that the surrounding people were telling Yu.
In the sky above the raft team followed Chacha. This matter had only been told to the team leader, Fan Ning.
At that time, Fan Ning had still wanted to ask for another water moonstone for Chacha, but was rejected by Shao Xuan. Chacha could keep a lookout in the sky and warn them if there were any dangerous encounters, with such good advantages, he still had wanted to receive payment? The economy was not that great at the present times, but these poeple already had the potential to be profiteers.
In the end, Fan Ning was left with a black face but he also did not insist.
Shao Xuan thought over it, that year when the Flaming Horns tribe arrived at that place, there weren’t many people. However there would always be someone recording their members status, Shao Xuan had seen the records of those years from the Shaman. The tribe’s population growth was very slow, but very stable. It was not chaotic like what Yu had said.
That time in the Flaming Horns tribe, Shao Xuan had felt that the Flaming Horns tribe’s Shaman was not a pushover at all, now hearing the other tribe’s situation, if it wasn’t for the Flaming Horns tribe’s every generation shaman’s guide and control, who’s to say they could have reached their current stability?
Under that kind of situation, they still had to face the ferocious beasts in the surrounding forests. They could progress until today’s 2 thousand members scale, it really was not easy.
A good shaman, a good chief, it is indeed very important.
The Pu tribe travel team continued up ashore, Shao Xuan saw a group of around ten quickly coming over. They helped the Pu tribe travel team carry their stuff from the rafts and took care of their rafts on the water. There was also an individual at the side fiercely staring at them with a whip in his hands.
“Who are they?” Shao Xuan asked the person next to him.
“You’re asking about them, ah.” It was the same as before, but at this moment, there were no indifference or sighs in the eyes of the Pu tribe, instead they carried an extreme contempt and heavily said: “Those are, slaves!”
Shao Xuan’s lids twitched.
At this moment, Shao Xuan could only hear the presumptuous laughter in front. The laughter was a bit harsh on the ears.
Lifting his head up to take a look, Shao Xuan saw a man who was randomly covered with leopard’s hide, smiling while walking over slowly. His physique tall and skinny, a pale face, not tanned like the people who were working around him. A pair of slightly squinting eyes, looking all smiley, but the flash in his eyes told Shao Xuan that this guy was not good to get along with.
“Hahahaha! We meet again!” The moment that man came over, the travel team’s leader, Fan Ning, quickly went up to welcome him. Fan Ning, who had always given Shao Xuan an unfriendly face, at this moment, smiled like a flower blooming, and started speaking up with him.
“And who is that guy?” Shao Xuan once again asked the guy at his side.
This time the Pu tribe member’s voice softened, slightly holding in his volume and answered: “He is the owner of those slaves.”
That is to say, that the man in leopard’s hide was the slaves’ master.
