Chapter 1045 - 1044, Thank You
Ji Nuan, Xiu Yan, and Ya Li set off with the young members of the tribe towards the old tribe.
Every orc was carrying an enormous basket on their back, covered with sturdy woven mats, loaded with salt.
And most of it was red salt.
After a few more deliveries, this salt would be enough for the old tribe to last until next year.
The day after the Watson Tribe set off to attend the great trading meeting, a few familiar orcs arrived at the seaside camp.
"Lord Priest, what brings you here?" Bosson was surprised to see the elderly priest and Zhuangzhuang from the Tortoise Tribe.
Aren’t these tribes going to the great trading meeting too?
The elderly Tortoise priest approached with a smile, "We came to thank you for taking care of Zhuangzhuang and for all your help. Without Shaman Ji Nuan’s aid, our Aquatic Orcs would still be miserably huddled on our islands."
Bosson nodded, setting aside other matters, he was very happy to hear praise for Shaman Ji Nuan.
He gestured for them to come inside: "Please, Elder Priest, come in and have a seat."
He then led the Tortoise Tribe’s priest, Zhuangzhuang, and a group of their orcs to a small hut at the entrance of the camp.
This hut was one of only three buildings in the camp, the other two...
One was the toilet for the orcs, and the other was the toilet for the females.
Of course, the latter was currently only used by Ji Nuan.
The hut still had thick beast skin mats laid down. The elderly priest and Zhuangzhuang sat on the beast skin mats, while the other orcs took seats behind them.
"Lord Priest, you’re a little late. Shaman Ji Nuan has already left with our tribesmen to attend the great trading meeting," Bosson said as he pushed a plate of fruits towards the priest and Zhuangzhuang.
"Oh? Has the Land Beastmen’s great trading meeting already started?" The Elder Priest had come out because the Aquatic Clan’s great trading meeting was about to start too. He wanted to check if the Watson Tribe needed any assistance before leaving.
One must seize every opportunity for such things.
Hadn’t all the Aquatic Tribes affected by the poison in the seawater suffered from a lack of food, starving and emaciated?
The Tortoise Tribe’s orcs not only didn’t face a food crisis, but their cubs had even grown plumper.
Such is the power of a strong ally.
"Shaman Ji Nuan and the others need to return to the old tribe first, then they will set off with the orcs from there. The tribe in the Mountain Forest and our tribe also have a good relationship; it is possible that they will join us when the time comes."
The Elder Priest nodded, a touch of regret in his gesture.
He looked back at an orc carrying a yellow sheepskin.
The orc carefully took off the yellow sheepskin, took out a conch as long as his arm from within, and handed it to the Elder Priest.
The Elder Priest then passed the conch to Bosson.
"This conch is a war conch from our Tortoise Tribe. When blown, the sound can travel very far and wide.
You saw the storm this time. Thanks to an early divine revelation, that’s how I had the opportunity to send Zhuangzhuang to warn you.
But often, we priests only get the message when the storm starts, and then it might be too late to come and warn you.
We’ve had our orcs test it; the distance between our two tribes isn’t very far, so if this conch is blown, its sound can reach you here."
