After the sacrifice was completed, the overall strength of the Vine Tribe increased a lot, and it officially became a truly large tribe.
This change had a profound impact on the Teng tribe and surrounding tribes.
The attitudes of various tribes towards the Vine Tribe have undergone great changes.
Among the Shangui tribe, Shanjia, who had just returned from participating in the big sacrifice, immediately found the witch and discussed with him a major event that affected the entire Shangui tribe.
"Witch, the Vine Tribe has announced that it has become a big tribe."
"As expected, the Vine Tribe already has this strength."
The Shangui tribe shaman was not surprised at all by this incident, but his mood was still a little complicated.
In just a few years, the Vine Tribe developed rapidly from a small tribe to a large tribe, and they have always lived there without ever migrating.
This is an amazing miracle, even a miracle.
For other tribes, the problem of food alone would greatly restrict the development of the tribe's population.
However, the Vine Tribe relied on unique planting and breeding methods to feed tens of thousands of people on limited land.
After Shanjia said those words, he fell into a long silence. He watched the flames in the fire pit beating continuously, and felt very entangled in his heart. He didn't know whether he should express his thoughts.
Wu raised his eyelids and said, "There are only two of us here. Let's say whatever we want."
Shanjia took a deep breath, raised his head slightly to look at Wu's face, and said, "Wu, I think the Vine Tribe will definitely go to the central part of the country in the future. I think... I want our Shanjia Tribe to go too."
When Wu heard the word "Central", his eyes had a strange light, but soon the light dimmed again.
"Of course I also want to go to the central part. That is the ancestral land of our Mountain Turtle Tribe, and the remains of the old Turtle God are still there. But with the current strength of our Mountain Turtle Tribe, we cannot survive in the central part. Don't forget , the red ant tribe is still there."
The Red Ant Tribe was the culprit that caused the death of the Old Turtle God and the forced migration of the Mountain Turtle Tribe. They were also the Mountain Turtle Tribe’s number one enemy.
With the strength of the Mountain Turtle Tribe, what could they do against the Red Ant Tribe?
Shan Jia hesitated for a moment, and finally plucked up the courage and said, "What if we become a subordinate tribe of the Vine Tribe?"
"Become a subordinate tribe of the Vine tribe?"
Wu looked at Shanjia in astonishment, his eyes full of disbelief and it was difficult to accept.
"Gorgeant, do you know what you are talking about?"
Becoming a subordinate tribe means losing freedom and autonomy, which is something that is difficult for any tribe to accept.
It is difficult for Wu to imagine what kind of stimulation Shan Jia received in the Teng tribe to have such an idea.
"Witch, of course I know what I'm talking about."
After speaking out what was in his heart, Gojia became calmer.
"Witch, do you know the Frog Tribe? They migrated all the way here from the distant Western Wilderness, and came here specifically to join the Vine Tribe. They are also the first affiliated tribe of the Vine Tribe."
"When they first migrated here, there were only a hundred or so people left. There were no guardian gods, and there were only a few giant frogs in the tribe."
"But when the Frog Tribe became a subsidiary tribe of the Vine Tribe, they gained a safe territory. They also learned farming, domestication, and making various tools from the Vine Tribe. The Vine Tribe even found a new patron saint for them. !」
"In just a few years, the Frog Tribe has grown from more than a hundred people to seven or eight hundred people. And because it is close to the Vine Tribe's trading area, it has received a lot of benefits from it and lives a very prosperous life."
"It can be said that if the Frog Tribe had not chosen to become a subordinate tribe of the Vine Tribe, they might have been wiped out long ago. How could they be living like they are today?"
Wu was silent for a long time after listening to Shanjia's words. Obviously, he had already heard about the Frog Tribe, but he had never thought deeply about the changes in the Frog Tribe.
Shanjia said again: "Witch, look at our Mountain Turtle Tribe again. Before the Vine Tribe appeared, we were here.
After living for hundreds of years, the tribe's population has not developed much. If it were not for guarding the mushroom forest, it would probably be even more difficult. "
"But after the Vine tribe appeared, our Mountain Turtle tribe joined them in defeating several powerful tribes and obtained a lot of trophies. The strength of the tribe increased very quickly, and the Turtle God also successfully broke through."
"If, I mean if, one day the Vine tribe really moves to the central part, but we still stay here, how long will it take for us to develop and become a big tribe? How long will it take for us to take revenge and how long will it take for us to welcome back our old tribe? The remains of the Turtle God?"
"I think becoming a subsidiary tribe of the Vine Tribe may also be an option. At least we can grow faster and return to the center of the country faster to avenge the Red Ant Tribe and welcome back the legacy of the Old Turtle God."
After Shanjia finished saying this in one breath, he felt both relaxed and a little uneasy, because these words were so bold. If it were normal, he would never speak like this in front of the witch.
Wu Geng fell silent. He wanted to refute Shanjia's words, but after thinking for a long time, he didn't know how to refute.
Finally, Wu said with difficulty: "You... go back first and let me think about it."
Shan Jia stood up, bowed respectfully to the witch, and said, "Witch, I may have been too impulsive when I spoke just now. Please forgive me."
Wu waved his hand to show that he didn't care.
"Then I'll go back first."
Shan Jia turned around and left Wu's house, leaving Wu alone, facing the fire pit and lost in thought, the firelight reflected on his face, with varying brightness.
…
In early October, heavy snow began to fall in the northwest of the Southern Wasteland. The thick snow would freeze the land for most of the winter, and everything would hide as much as possible.
On the ninth day of October, a violent earthquake suddenly occurred near the Teng tribe. At the same time, there was lightning and thunder in the sky, and thunder exploded.
"Rumble..."
The ground continued to tremble, and the snow on the trees fell down with a "whoosh". Some loose rocks also broke away from the mountain and rolled down.
Such a terrible earthquake would naturally affect the Vine tribe.
"Buzz!"
At the critical moment, Shen Teng woke up in time and propped up a huge shield-shaped barrier for the entire Vine tribe. At the same time, all the roots were used to stabilize the ground so that it would not crack in the earthquake.
Under the protection of Shen Teng, most of the houses of the Teng tribe were saved. Only some houses that were not strong enough collapsed, killing and injuring several tribesmen.
"How could there be a sudden earthquake?"
Jiang Xuan put on his animal skin clothes and ran outside. The huge purple snake eagle glutinous rice balls and the black wind rhinoceros crescent moon all ran to him and lay on the ground shivering.
"Crack!"
A bolt of lightning suddenly struck in the sky, and the dazzling light illuminated the gray sky.
"Xuan, are you okay?"
Chi Shao also ran out of the yard and quickly ran to Jiang Xuan, looking at him nervously.
"I'm fine. Fortunately, Fujigami protected me. Otherwise, such a violent earthquake would have destroyed the entire house."
Chi Shao looked at Jiang Xuan's whole body and found that he was indeed uninjured, and he felt relieved.
The two of them just stood in the snow. After the frequency of earthquakes decreased, they immediately went to various parts of the tribe. On the one hand, they organized witch doctors from the witch hospital to treat the affected tribesmen, and on the other hand, they checked the damage caused by the earthquake.
Until the next day, the ground was still shaking from time to time. If it hadn't been for the divine vine that had been protecting the tribe, I'm afraid the vine tribe would have suffered heavy losses this time.
On the third day, the earthquake finally subsided, but the sky in the north was covered with dark clouds, and loud noises were heard from time to time, which made people feel panicked.
Jiang Xuan looked to the north and said to himself: "There must have been great changes over there. Once the tribe is settled, we have to go and see what's going on."
Jiang Xuan had a hunch that the impact of this great change might be very large and far-reaching.
