Chapter 81: Destined to be abandoned

"If I can't walk, I have to work hard to make myself recover early." I put my other hand on the door frame and looked at the thin fog floating in the woods outside. "We have all been on this island for more than 20 days. If we delay too long, who knows what those aborigines will do to Li Wanxue?"

"Don't worry too much." Zhang Yutong comforted and said, "They won't kill Sister Wanxue easily. I can see that the little wife of the chief likes her very much. The big deal is to let her be a slave all the time. They will wait patiently for us to go back."

"Even so, what if the tribe can't hold on and the black monster goes up?" In fact, I am most worried about those guys. Although the aborigines will resist them, they have an innate fear in front of monsters. First of all, they lose a lot of momentum. After the Black Monsters invade, it will be a big question whether they can keep the tribe.

Zhang Yutong sighed: "You should have brought Sister Wanxue out at the beginning and left me behind."

"Are you different from her?" I stared at her: "In my heart, you are the same as her."

Zhang Yutong smiled shyly.

After standing for a while, the pain in my right leg disappeared. The previous pain seems to be due to the maladjustment after getting up. I pushed her hand away and tried to walk a few steps by myself. There was no problem at all, but I had to limp.

"I can't believe what your bones are made of." Zhang Yutong covered her mouth.

I smiled and asked her to bring breakfast.

After that, Wuwa and others took the initiative to gather in the big house. For more than half a month, I have been able to communicate directly with Wuwa through my hard work. Besides, the language of the aborigines is not complicated.

After everyone sat down, Wuwa said, "I have almost taught you what I should teach you. Today, I will teach you some unique languages and codes with our tribe."

"How long do we need to study?" In a few more days, I will be able to move freely. Now that I have been able to communicate with the aborigines, I am satisfied. We still have to focus on dealing with the aborigines.

Wuwa said: "Half a day is enough, it will not take too much time."

I nodded. "Let me tell you something else first. From this afternoon, you can get some more flexible rattan. I need a pile of ropes."

Wuwa was puzzled: "What are you going to do? We have hemp ropes, so we don't need to look for rattan. The leaves and trunks of the fruit trees you picked last time by the sea can be polished, and the rest can be made into very strong ropes. Nothing can cut them except your iron axe and fire."

"Then I'll take this rope." "We're going to take you to deal with the cannibals," I explained. " We're going to take all their stuff from them. The ropes are for something else, not all of them."

"Sister Wuwa, you never told us why people in that tribe eat human flesh?" Zhang Yutong chimed in.

This question, let us all lift the spirit. It's been so long since we came to the tree house tribe that we forgot to ask such an important thing.

Wuwa frowned: "They are not the only tribes that eat human flesh on the island. There are several tribes that eat people. However, their tribes are born to like to eat human flesh. Other tribes that eat human flesh will only eat human flesh when they lack food. There is really no way to eat human flesh."

"What are you eating?"

"They will divide and eat the dead people of their tribe. Those who are captured by them will also be eaten. You three were not eaten last time because you look different from us. They probably thought there was something special about you, so they sacrificed you to their ancestors."

I remembered that Wuwa, after they sacrificed to cannibals, went to the cave to check, so I asked, "Will they use some other things for sacrifice?"

"There will be food and use." Wuwa patiently explained to us: "Every time we will stare quietly and steal all those things back. We didn’t know when their tribe came to this island, and they have bullied us before. Later, it was defeated by the big tribe, and it became what it is now. They attach great importance to sacrifice, preferring to eat less by themselves and save it for sacrifice to their ancestors. Everyone knows that their ancestors have died, and the sacrificial food and cloth will only rot away. "

This emphasis on sacrifice should be directly related to the great wizards in their tribe. Only wizards will firmly believe that the dead ancestors can bring blessings to the tribe. This is also a good means for them to maintain their noble status in the tribe.

As soon as we understood it, Zhang Yutong said pitifully, "Sister Wuwa, can I ask you something?" Zhang Yutong said pitifully.

Wuwa smiled and nodded.

"Now Lu Fei can help you get enough food. Can you give the old man more food in the future?"

Wuwa stared at us blankly for a moment and was puzzled about our requirement.

I quickly said: "Wuwa, please believe me, I can guarantee that the tribe will never be short of food in the future."

Wuwa sighed: "Well, if you didn't appear in time, Abba should jump into the sea by himself."

"Because the tribe lacks food, people will take the initiative to jump into the sea when they are old?" This result is almost the same as what I originally guessed.

Wuwa nodded: "We can't help it. Even if we can have more food, we won't do it. If you come again last rainy season, my father and my mother won't have to jump into the sea."

All six of us sighed.

We can communicate directly, and after we asked all the doubts in our heart, Wuwa began to continue teaching us. After learning, I reviewed it several times together. Their secret code is actually to learn from animal calls, and different animal calls represent different meanings.

After learning, everyone gradually left. Zhang Yutong and I were preparing to take a nap after lunch when we saw a rickety figure appear at the door.

Looking around, it was the old man named Yinong. We got up quickly and invited him into the house.

After he sat down with mirth, he thanked us well.

"Abba, we will have a lot of delicious food in the future. You can eat as you want." Zhang Yutong said like teasing a child.

Yinong Abba couldn't stop nodding and smiling very kindly.

"Young people, your arrival has changed the fate of our tribe. If you can, can you not leave in the future?"

I nodded directly and promised: "Of course, no problem, we will be our own people in the future."

"Good." Abba Yi Nong got excited and nodded and said, "You must eat more and make yourself stronger. Only in this way can you have the opportunity to compete for prey and defeat those who bully us."

"You, too. I wish you a hundred years old." Zhang Yutong said.

Abba Yinong didn't know how long it was to be 100 years old, so Zhang Yutong explained to him that there were 100 rainy seasons plus 100 dry seasons.

He was full of horror, saying that it was too long, and he had never seen anyone live so old.

The three of us laughed together.

"Well, I have said everything I should say. Thank you again for showing up." Yi Nong Abba slowly climbed up: "You can have a rest and sleep for a while."

After sending him out the door, Zhang Yutong and I felt deeply moved before lying down and resting.

When I woke up, I suddenly found a huge rainbow in the sky, which stood across the south sky, just like a charming arch bridge connecting the sea and the sky.

We had just enjoyed it for a while, when an aborigine hurried out of the tree house next to us and headed for Wuwa's house. Soon Wuwa gathered all the people in the tribe with his horns. I quickly asked Zhang Yutong to explore the situation.

When she came back, she was wiping away tears.

"What's the matter?" It doesn't seem that there is any sudden danger.

Zhang Yutong threw herself into my arms and sobbed: "Brother Lu Fei, Yi Nong Abba jumped into the sea, which has just been discovered."

"How did this happen? Didn't you tell him not to die?" I was particularly shocked by this news.

Zhang Yutong shook her head and said she didn't know why.

When Wuwa took the tribal people down the tree, I asked Zhang Yutong to call several other people and quickly followed them.
