Chapter 185: Salt as Free Gift

Chapter 185: Salt as Free Gift

The fact proved that primitive people were genuine food lovers. The large pot of sheep offal soup from the Green Sparrow Tribe, except for Han Cheng, who tasted a bit, was left untouched by the rest. Twenty-nine people managed to finish it all!

Despite eating so much, several individuals, with their bellies full, extended their tongues to lick their bowls clean. Not satisfied with licking their bowls, they licked the bowls used by their companions, making sure they were spotless as if washed with water. They seemed unafraid of overeating to the point of discomfort.

Han Cheng turned away, unable to bear watching any longer. If he continued, he feared he might not be able to restrain the urge to hit someone.Updated from novelb(i)n.c(o)m

These bowls had to be stored separately!

Anyone in the Green Sparrow Tribe who dared to eat like this or use these bowls for meals would have to endure kicks!

The leaders of the Sheep and Green tribes each held a small jar of salt and were unwilling to let go.

Inside the small jars was pure white salt.

Initially, they hesitated to touch it with their hands, fearing it might melt like snow. After much hesitation, they tentatively reached out to touch it.

The leader of the Green Tribe withdrew his hand from the jar, looking at the snowy substance inside with excitement. It was as if he had seen a bowl of hot and delicious food emitting steam.

Although his unwashed hands had discolored the surface layer of salt in the jar for who knows how long, the charm of these things was not diminished in his eyes.

"Salt!"

He repeated the name he had just learned from the leader of this tribe, feeling a bit awkward pronouncing it but not having much thought about it. After all, these were things he had never encountered before.

"Salt!"

The leader of the Sheep Tribe looked at the snowy substance in the jar in his hand and couldn't help but repeat the word.

Hearing the somewhat awkward pronunciation of the leaders of the Green and Sheep tribes, Han Cheng suppressed a smile. Well, he had inadvertently influenced the pronunciation of two tribes.

They could say more words in Mandarin than just the newly learned "salt." They also learned "jar," "pottery," and "pot" from the Green Sparrow Tribe.

All were new things they had encountered through the Green Sparrow Tribe.

The leaders of the Sheep and Green tribes felt somewhat uneasy but were unwilling to put down the jars of salt.

The leader of the Sheep Tribe felt a little disappointed at this, realizing that two lambs were indeed not enough.

After a slight hesitation, he was about to bring over three more bowls, but the Eldest Senior Brother stopped him.

In his puzzled gaze, the Eldest Senior Brother waved his hands repeatedly and said, "%&Don't%@."

Understanding the Eldest Senior Brother's meaning, the leaders of the Sheep and Green tribes widened their eyes in surprise and disbelief.

%@$

They looked at the Eldest Senior Brother, then at the salt jar in their hands, wanting to confirm and ask about something.

"%D is"

The Eldest Senior Brother nodded vigorously while saying that to convey his meaning more clearly, he also pounded his chest.

Although in conveying this meaning, he had a vision of six-skinned lambs suddenly coming back to life and then running away without a trace

The leaders of the Sheep and Green tribes suddenly became happy. They hugged the Eldest Senior Brother one after another and pressed their foreheads against his shoulder. Learning that they were getting this precious salt for free, a gift from the intentions of the junior disciple, they came to thank the generous but seemingly young Divine Child sincerely and paid their respects to the shaman.

Having eaten their fill, each carrying a jar of salt, the leaders of the Sheep and Green tribes, along with their tribespeople and exchanging pottery, left happily.

The recently cleaned large pot of the Green Tribe was blackened again, but they didn't care about it. Rejecting the proposal of the Green Sparrow Tribe to wash the pot with water, they swiftly carried it away. The pot retained the delicious meat soup, and they were reluctant to wash it away.

After reaching a place invisible to the Green Sparrow Tribe, the two tribes separated and headed in the direction of their respective tribes.

Han Cheng climbed up the wooden ladder until he couldn't see the two tribes anymore, then came down from the low wall, wearing a triumphant smile.

" Divine Child"

As soon as he descended, the shaman and the Eldest Senior Brother surrounded him, asking about the doubts in their hearts.

They were puzzled by the Divine Child's insistence on giving away free salt to these two tribes.

Previously, with many people and limited time, the god hadn't explained clearly. Now, it was time to clear up the confusion.
