Chapter 57 She Can't

Rumen is just a lowly savage whose intelligence has not yet been developed.

He didn't care whether Gong Ga and the female savage knew each other before. What he cared about was whether he had a share in the woman who fell into the trap.

"Gongga."

Lumen stepped forward and grabbed one of Maguli's legs: "I saw this first, she has to be my wife first!"

Gong Ga said with a dark face: "Get lost!"

"Ha! Gongga! You want to monopolize this wild woman? I'm going to tell the chief and ask him to judge for me!"

"Yeah?"

Gongga put Maguli aside, then turned around and punched Lumen hard on the head.

Lumen was beaten so hard that his nose was bleeding. He fell to the ground and howled, "Gongga, you are dead. The chief said that the most important thing for our wolf tribe is unity..."

"I'm dead?"

Gongga sneered.

He was the strongest warrior of the Blackrock Tribe, and when he arrived at the Wolf Tribe, his strength was also among the best.

He rushed over, pinned Rumen to the ground and beat him severely, then picked up Rumen and threw him directly onto the earthen kang.

The sharp spikes in the earthen kang will paralyze Lumen and make him lose consciousness.

In order to avoid being discovered by other tribesmen, Gongga also brought large stones and threw them into the earthen kang, and later covered it with thick thatch.

After doing all this, he clapped his hands, turned around and looked at Maguli.

Maguli blinked her bright black eyes and said, "You, you killed someone again?"

"That's not a human, it's a beast."

Gongga said lightly, walked up to her and brushed the dirt off her face: "Guli, come with me to the Wolf Tribe, let's have a litter of cubs that won't have osteomalacia, okay?"

Guli shook her head: "Not good."

"Are you still thinking about Konbu?"

Gongga clenched his fists in anger, and the muscles in his arms and shoulders bulged.

"What's so good about kelp? He's not as strong as me, not as sturdy as me, and not as smart as me..."

"But he's kinder than you."

Maguli interrupted Gongga and said sternly, "Gongga, thank you for saving me from the trap. Can you let me go? I swear, I will never tell the people of the Black Stone Tribe about your whereabouts."

Gong Gak asked, "Where are you going?"

"Ebony and the others have contracted a serious worm disease. I have to go to Stone City to find a cure for the worm disease."

"Ebony and the others are suffering from a bug disease. What does it have to do with you?"

"It's none of my business, but every year many adults and children in the tribe die from insect diseases..."

"What does it have to do with you whether they live or die?"

"because..."

Maguli didn't know how to explain it to Gongga.

Before she set out, the people of the Black Rock Tribe mocked her and no one understood why she wanted to go to Stone City to find a witch doctor.

Gong Ga wouldn't understand her either.

It was already dark by then.

In the distance came a series of long howls imitating those of wild wolves. It was the people of the Evil Wolf Tribe calling their fellow tribesmen back.

The numbness in Maguli's body had almost disappeared by now.

"Gong Ga, please go back, I'm fine."

"You come back with me."

Gongga picked her up and said, "Guli, let's not worry about the worm disease. Come with me and let's go have a baby."

"I won't! Gongga, put me down quickly!"

Maguli struggled hard and punched Gongga hard on the chest with her fist.

But she was weak, and to Gong Ga, her resistance was no more than a tickle.

"Guli, I know you're still mad at me."

"That night, I shouldn't have pushed all the blame onto you in front of everyone in the Blackrock Tribe."

"When I saw you crying in pain because of the fire, my heart almost broke."

"I swear to Lord Moon God that I will never be like before..."

When Gongga was carrying Maguli towards the tribe, he kept admitting his mistakes and reflecting on himself along the way.

Maguli was so anxious that tears were about to come out.

"Gong Ga, let me go. I don't like you. I don't want to go to the Wolf Tribe with you..."

"The Wolf Tribe is better than the Black Stone Tribe, Guli. You will like the Wolf Tribe."

Gongga carried Maguli in one hand and an antelope in the other, with two rabbits hanging around his waist, and strode towards the wolf tribe.

At the entrance of the Wolf Tribe's village, there was a half-man-high stone wall with a flag made of animal skin on top. It did look more imposing than the bare Black Rock Tribe.

When they heard that the great warrior Gongga had returned with a great load, the tribesmen gathered around him.

The savages cheered in victory.

The female savage's eyes were sparkling with stars when she looked at Gongga.

"Gongga\(^o^)/~"

"Woo woo~ Gongga Gonggaヾ(@^▽^@)ノ"

"Since Gongga came to our tribe, we have been eating meat more often."

Under normal circumstances, a group of savages may not be able to hunt down a prey in a whole day.

But Gongga not only brought back such a big antelope, but also two wild rabbits, and most importantly, he also caught a mother (or daughter) of a wild man.

One more female savage means there will be a few more little savages in the tribe, or even a dozen or twenty little savages.

The tribe will grow stronger soon.

After a while, even the clan leader Xi Luo heard the noise and came over.

Xiro has a bearded face and dark skin. He used to be the bravest savage in the tribe. Now that he is the chief, he no longer participates in physical work such as hunting, and his health is not as good as before.

He walked over to Maguli and took a closer look.

"Can you keep her alive if she's so thin?"

"able."

Gongga nodded affirmatively, and then said, "Master Chief, her name is Maguli, can I make her my wife?"

"Dang…" Silla was about to nod, when he suddenly felt that the name Maguli seemed to have been heard somewhere.

He tilted his head and tried to recall for a moment.

Every year around the winter solstice, tribes would spontaneously go to the Erna River to participate in a barter market.

A few years ago, he met Kunya, the old chief of the Black Stone Tribe.

Kunya wanted to exchange a piece of dried animal meat for a string of wind chimes made of shells. He said he wanted to give the string of wind chimes to Maguli in the tribe because she had saved his only son. When his son became the chief, he would marry her.

Gongga saw that Chief Xiluo had said the word "when" but had not said the word "of course" yet, so he raised his voice and asked again: "Chief, can I let Maguli be my wife?"

Silla came back to his senses: "No."

Gong Ga was anxious: "Why? Didn't you say before that the wild woman captured from outside would belong to whoever caught her?"

Xi Luo's rough and dark face had a serious expression: "I did say that, but Maguli can't."

"Why? Why not Maguli?"

"Because she is from the Black Rock Tribe."

"What happened to the Blackrock Tribe?"

Gongga held Maguli's hand tightly, as if anyone who dared to stop him from being with Maguli would be his enemy: "I am still a member of the Black Stone Tribe. Didn't you agree that I could join your Wolf Tribe?"
