Chapter 165
Chapter 165 – Guang Hou
Translated by Joycelyn
Shao Xuan stared at the person standing on the lotus. The ‘Gua’ sound he heard just now reminded him of those long tailed frogs that came ashore during the raining season. That was why he took out his knife at the first moment.
The guy standing on the lotus leaf was the one in charge of border patrol from the Pu tribe; therefore he was frequently in contact with the trading group from the Drumming Tribe. He was also familiar with Qing Yi.
Hearing the guy’s statement, Qing Yi helplessly said: “The trouble this time was bigger.”
Aside from the Martyr tribe, there were people from other tribes participating as well. However, Qing Yi did not mention this, he would also not easily tell this to the outsiders.
The guy on the lotus leaf nodded his head. He had also received news that this time the ones invading the Drumming tribe were from the Martyr tribe. Qing Yi and the others had to rest a little longer after the battle as well, and therefore would naturally be delayed leaving. He swept a glance among the Drumming tribe group and landed his gaze on Shao Xuan.
“Who is he?” The Drumming tribe’s characteristics are very obvious and there was no need for a second look to see that there was someone different mixed among this group.
Shao Xuan: “….” How nice of them.
Fu Shi and the rest were already used to it, and just extended their arms and grabbed some to eat.
Seeing that Shao Xuan did not move, Fu Shi and the rest encouraged: “Shao Xuan, these that the Pu tribe baked are not bad, you can try them, later when you leave, it will be difficult to eat them again.”
Shao Xuan stared at the insects who had died agonisingly for a few seconds, held out his hand and grabbed a four legged one with a complete body. However who would have known that the aunty would be so enthusiastic and directly grabbed a handful and stuffed them into Shao Xuan’s hand.
Shao Xuan: “…..Um, thanks.”
Although it looked horrifying, but the taste was just like what Fu Shi said. It was actually pretty good, if, you could forget about what you were eating.
In the Pu tribe’s village, the area where they slept, their houses were not very big, and were made with branches and leaves. Some houses made an encirclement, and at the edge had an opening. Some formed big triangles, without any fixed form. They look quite artistic. It was not that they did not have the skill to make sturdier houses, but it was just their habit and preferences. They were just more inclined to this architectural style.
The sun was quite strong during the afternoon. Some even went around with a lotus leaf as an umbrella.
Because there was still the matter with Chacha, Qing Yi let the rest of the group go ahead to the trade meet and brought Shao Xuan to the Pu tribe’s chief’s place.
The Pu tribe’s Shaman often stayed in his stone cave and rarely came out. Every time the Drumming tribe come over to the Pu tribe, the one they met was always the Pu tribe’s chief ‘Guang Hou’.
Guang Hou’s house was in the core area of the Pu tribe. Because the people here lived packed together, they did not have to walk too far to arrive in front of Guang Hou’s house.
The steeple’s roof was made of grass and stuff like tree leaves. The door was open, signifying they could walk into the house.
After going in, the first thing Shao Xuan saw was a mass of meat sitting right at the front – that was the Pu tribe’s chief, Guang Hou.
Guang Hou had prominent eyebrows, just like two corners edges. Around his eyes were paintings of yellow-green and black stripes patterns. Compared with the people in the Flaming Horns tribe, Guang Hou’s appearance looked quite hideous. His stature was much larger, just like a meat dumpling, looking very oppressive.
Now, Guang Hou was sitting right there, eating some unidentifiable animal with his coarse thick hand. Seeing Shao Xuan walk in, Guang Hou’s eyes narrowed, he scanned Shao Xuan over, his mouth chewing his food, not resting.
“You come from the Flaming Horns tribe?” Guang Hou questioned.
“That is correct.”
“Flaming Horns tribe, I seem to have heard it before.” Guang Hou said.
