In the next few days, Jia Chaoyue was very depressed.
The Senluo Presbyterian Church's monopoly on knowledge has reached a crazy level.
Through the current channels, he could only find out some very limited information.
For example, if a spirit whisperer below the gray level wants to enter the Senluo Presbyterian Church, they can only be recommended by the elders within the presbytery.
As a result, "loose cultivators" like Jia Chao can only choose to become vassals of the big tribes.
The biggest disadvantage of being a vassal is that you are at the mercy of others.
You can only have what others want to give you.
If others don't give it to you, you can only squat down and look up like a dog.
This is equivalent to putting a rope around your own neck and then handing the other end of the rope into someone else's hands.
But if you don't join the Senluo Presbyterian Church, you won't be able to get information about brown levels and above, and you won't be able to go further.
After getting to know Patriarch Qinghong, Jia Chao understood a truth:
The gray-level elders in a large tribe are different from the casual cultivators in a small tribe!
Even though there are several gray levels in the Black Lizard Tribe, their number reaches tens of thousands.
But if we really want to talk about combat effectiveness, I am afraid that Patriarch Qinghong can easily defeat ten of them!
This is also the reason why the Black Lizard Tribe is only a small tribe.
"Achao, what are you worried about?" Xingyue interrupted Jia Chao's sage mode.
Jia Chao turned to look at her and smiled slightly.
"Nothing, I just want to go out for a walk some time!"
Xingyue was silent for a moment, "I want to go out too!"
Jia Chao pulled up the animal skin quilt and covered her pair of fair skin, "You are out, what if someone comes to trouble you again?"
Xingyue pouted, "I can't do anything now! He's just a blue-level elemental warrior, and he can't even defeat Da Lang!"
Jia Chao slapped him on the thigh, "That's right! Isn't that damn rabbit always lazy lately? Call it out to look after the house, and let's go out and have fun! What do you think?"
Xingyue rubbed her red thighs and nodded obediently.
Half a day later, Dalang took Xue Niang out of the crater.
Looking at Jia Chao and Jia Chao gradually disappearing in the sky, Dalang grinned happily.
"Uncle Kunshu, I'll leave matters in the tribe to you. Don't call me if it's nothing serious!"
The rabbit told Kunshu a few words and then walked straight towards the house that belonged to it.
Kunshu looked at Dalang's back and smiled, shook his head, sighed and returned to the workshop with his hands behind his back.
The food of the New Flame Stone Tribe has always been supplied by Jia Chao and the others, so the tribesmen do not need to go out to hunt.
For Kunshu, managing the tribe is as easy as being a factory security guard. Where does the big deal come from?
As soon as Dalang entered the room, he showed a doting smile to Xue Niang on the bed.
"Xiao Xuexue, I'm back again!"
After shouting in a low voice, Dalang threw himself directly on the bed.
Just when it was about to draw its gun and go into battle, there was a rapid knock on the door.
Dalang shouted dissatisfiedly at the door: "If you have anything to do, please contact Uncle Kunshu!"
Outside the door: "I am Kunshu!"
Dalang: "..."
After a while, looking at the three people in front of him, Dalang put away his impatient expression.
One of the people who came here was of brown rank, and two of them were of red rank.
For Dalang, it would not be wise to embarrass them.
"Special envoy Qingque, and Kuangyan from the Hundred Birds Tribe, right?"
Seeing that Dalang recognized him, Qingque and Kuangyan nodded with satisfaction.
"This is the Feisha envoy of the Great Sun Tribe!" Kuang Yan turned around and introduced him. "They are the witnesses I invited!"
"Witness? Witness what?" Dalang asked doubtfully.
Kuang Yan took out a wooden stick engraved with strange patterns, raised it high, and said:
"The Flame Stone Tribe becomes a vassal of the Bird Tribe from today on. The conditions for the vassalage are to present ten jars of salt and ten pieces of sweet soil as gifts every winter and summer!"
Dalang: "Huh?"
Seeing Dalang hesitate to speak, Kunshu quickly stepped forward and grabbed him. Even Hua Lin, who came specially to watch from a distance, clenched his fists.
"Can't refuse! Can't refuse!" Hua Lin said softly.
Kunshu also kept hinting at Dalang. Dalang was so smart that he immediately knelt down and saluted, which was regarded as acknowledgment.
"Rabbit, I don't understand human rules. If there is any missing etiquette, my chief will come to make up for it. Today, let's treat the three of us to a meal in the tribe!"
The three Kuangyans looked at each other, nodded, and entered the tribe under the guidance of Dalang.
…
Jia Chao, who had just left the tribe, soon received Dalang's report.
He was currently navigating with a guide bone and had no desire to go back to the tribe to socialize.
The wooing of the Bird Tribe was actually within his expectation.
Discovering his secret but not intervening fully illustrates the stance of Patriarch Qinghong.
She wants to win over herself!
But Jia Chao was not willing to passively accept this kind of solicitation. He wanted to take the initiative in his own hands.
The weak's diplomacy is always a game between two strong ones for survival.
So his trip this time was actually to find the wilderness liberals.
But for some reason, the guide bone pointed in the direction near the Senluo battlefield.
In order to clear up the doubts in his heart, Jia Chao simply went to Luan Shu's territory on the way.
It was a place called Fire Grass Valley. Jia Chao had been there once last time when he was looking for people from the Scale Beast Tribe.
Like the Brown Stone Mountain of the Yanshi Tribe, the Fire Grass Valley is also close to the Lamuge Mountains and is a horseshoe-shaped valley.
A certain kind of plant called fireweed grows everywhere in the Fireweed Valley. This plant is particularly easy to burn after drying.
Fireweed is included in the firewood piles used to send smoke signals during autumn hunting.
Due to the season, Jia Chao only saw some fireweeds that had just sprouted young leaves.
He came up and took a few bites without saying a word.
In order to cultivate the spirit of poisonous elements, he has developed the habit of taking a few bites of plants he has never seen before.
Xingyue was surprised by his strange behavior, so she also tried it after him.
The result is extreme suffering.
"Achao, are you hungry? I still have meat here, so don't eat grass!"
Jia Chao shook his head speechlessly, "I'm not hungry, I just want to find more wild vegetables that my tribe can eat!"
When Xingyue heard this, a layer of mist suddenly appeared in her eyes.
However, Jia Chao did not comfort her, because at this moment his attention was completely focused on the valley below.
There were no tall trees or caves visible to the naked eye in the Fire Grass Valley, but no one could be seen.
Just when Jia Chao was confused, a voice came from below.
"Chief Achao, why are you here?"
Jia Chao immediately stopped the flying board used as a sword master and looked down.
The flyboard flew close to the ground, only more than one meter above the ground. There was only a patch of dry grass below, and no one could be seen at all.
"Don't look down, I'm over here! Look over to the cliff on the right!"
The sound clearly came from the grass below. How could the person be on the other side of the cliff?
Turning around, I saw that there was indeed a figure on the other side of the cliff.
Jia Chao took a closer look, who could he be if he wasn't Luan Shu?
