The arrival of the Donkey Tribe caused some commotion in the Green Sparrow Tribe.
Many people were scattered around the tribe’s surroundings working and were not inside the walls.
However, this commotion did not last long.
Firstly, it was recognized that the visitors were from the Donkey Tribe, which frequently came to trade with them.
Secondly, those who had put aside their weapons while working, like the Eldest Senior Brother and Third Senior Brother, set down their tools and picked up their weapons.
Another point was that there were relatively fewer Donkey Tribe members than the current Green Sparrow Tribe.
At this time, various weapons were still relatively primitive, and the number of people, especially adults, was generally linked to combat effectiveness.
The leader of the Donkey Tribe felt a bit disappointed as he observed the people coming to greet him and those still busy with seemingly trivial tasks.
The current state of the tribe indicated that the Green Tribe, which he had been hoping to see, was not present.
This was certainly not a happy situation for someone eager to show off in front of the Green Tribe.
The leader of the Donkey Tribe did not advance recklessly but instead stopped at a distance from the entrance of the Green Sparrow Tribe, waiting for Eldest Senior Brother, Han Cheng and the others.
His tribe is where it is today because it traded precious ceramics and salt with this wealthy tribe. Without this tribe, it would still be the same.
The Donkey Tribe leader, who had been engaged in trade for a long time, understood this very well.
After a simple greeting, the leader of the Donkey Tribe suddenly noticed something that made him feel uncertain.
He couldn’t tell if it was an illusion, but he felt there seemed to be many more people in this wealthy tribe than before.
This suspicion was confirmed when he saw the two large-buttocked mates of the Green Tribe leader.
He could recognize these two individuals because of the annual Happy Festival…
Upon recognizing these people, the leader of the Donkey Tribe felt not excitement but instead increasing unease and suspicion.
This was because the two mates of the Green Tribe leader were dressed exactly like the people of the Green Sparrow Tribe!
This meant that the extra people in this tribe were from the Green Tribe?!
The leader of the Donkey Tribe’s expression changed immediately. His face, which had not turned white despite a winter in the cave, now appeared pale.
He recalled the previous decapitation of the Bone Tribe leader and the fact that the Bone Tribe members had joined this tribe.
After that beheading, the leader of the Donkey Tribe did not believe that the surrounding tribes dared to attack this tribe.
But now, Green Tribe people had appeared within this tribe, looking identical to its members.
This meant that the current wealthy and powerful tribe had become an evil tribe, starting to attack other tribes and actively plunder their populations!
At this moment, the leader of the Donkey Tribe was unusually sharp, given that it was a matter of the tribe’s safety, and population plundering had occurred in primitive tribes before…
The Donkey Tribe leader pointed at the two large-buttocked women carrying baskets toward the main entrance and asked Eldest Senior Brother.
His gaze swept over the Green Sparrow Tribe members, trying to find the Green Tribe leader.
Although he was searching, he had already concluded that the Green Tribe leader was likely dead.
If the Green Tribe leader were still alive, the remaining members would not be so willingly and submissively living in this wealthy tribe.
After surveying the courtyard and not spotting the Green Tribe leader, the Donkey Tribe leader’s forehead started to sweat.
This wealthy and powerful tribe had turned into an evil tribe!
“They have run out of food…”
After understanding the Donkey Tribe leader’s concern, Eldest Senior Brother started explaining, recognizing what the leader feared.
The Donkey Tribe leader was skeptical about the claim of food shortages and the Green Sparrow Tribe’s generous assistance. He asked where the Green Tribe leader was.
He didn’t believe the Green Tribe leader would bring the whole tribe to join the Green Sparrow Tribe.
Seeing the Donkey Tribe leader’s determined and wary expression, Eldest Senior Brother smiled and said, “Gu, Gu!”
Gu responded, climbing out from a large pit.
Having received news about the visitors, Gu had put down his work and headed toward the wall, just like the others in the courtyard. However, upon discovering that the visitors were the Donkey Tribe and that Eldest Senior Brother had gone to meet them and bring them into the tribe, Gu and others left the wall to continue working on the toilet.
He was currently digging a pit to store manure.
“So, this is the Green Tribe leader…”
Eldest Senior Brother pointed to Gu, brushing off some dirt, and said to the Donkey Tribe leader.
The Donkey Tribe leader’s eyes widened as he carefully scrutinized the man, who had lost his distinctive green grass. After a while, he finally recognized him as the Green Tribe leader he had once enjoyed playing with.
The Donkey Tribe leader gestured to ask Gu why he joined the Green Sparrow Tribe and why he abandoned his tribe.
As the sun moved towards the west, the Donkey Tribe leader, his tribe members, and the many ceramics and salt obtained through trade left the Green Sparrow Tribe.
Looking back at the enthusiastic Green Sparrow Tribe members working in the fields and the Green Tribe leader standing at the tribe’s entrance, smiling and waving at him, the Donkey Tribe leader felt dizzy.
Although he had seen the Green Tribe as he had wished, the joy he had expected was absent, leaving him deeply troubled.
He still found it hard to believe the Green Tribe leader would lead his entire tribe to join the Green Sparrow Tribe.
Initially, he thought the Green Sparrow Tribe had intimidated the Green Tribe, but after talking with the Green Tribe leader, he realized that was not the case.
Moreover, the Green Tribe leader seemed quite satisfied with the current life…
