Chapter 29 Change the Salt

Ten days later, Nagu and his party arrived at their destination—the Alpine Tribe.

Xu Fei looked at the several mountains in front of him, all of which were bare and had no vegetation.There are few plants, and there must be not many prey. No wonder they are eager to exchange food with the surrounding tribes.

Guarding such a salt mountain, there is nothing around it, and eating salt can't fill you up.If there were no other tribes to exchange food for, they would either abandon the mountains or starve to death.

Although this is a mountain tribe, the Yanshan Mountain is not high as a whole, only 30 meters.Salt Mountain is not as white as Xu Fei imagined, on the contrary, it is a bit dusty, with a tree on the east and a clump of grass on the west, looking like a Mediterranean Sea that is about to be bald.

The people here all live at the foot of the mountain, and regularly send people to patrol the mountain to prevent those who are greedy for cheap from stealing the salt on the mountain, which is their treasure.

Because this is the first salt mountain near the rainforest tribe, many people come to exchange and ask for more food.

After walking for another day, you can encounter a large stretch of salt mountains, where you need to walk for an extra day and require less food.

The amount of salt that the group of young people have to change is quite a lot, enough to feed a tribe for a period of time, and they are not afraid to walk more.Nagu brought Xu Fei, just the two of them, it doesn't matter if you exchange more or less salt.What's more, he found that Xu Fei had lost a lot of weight during this period of time.

So everyone parted ways here, and the leading young man warmly invited Nagu and the others to visit their tribe. Their tribe was by the river, not far from where Nagu and the others lived.

Nagu had never encountered this kind of treatment, and was at a loss for a while.Xu Fei next to him understood his feelings and helped the big man to thank them.

After everyone had left, the big fool asked the people around him, "Are they inviting me to be a guest?"

Seeing the big man's expressionless face, Xu Fei, who knew him well, could only see that the ears on his big dog's head were pricked up, as if he was going to help me check if I had auditory hallucinations.

"Yeah!" Xu Fei didn't tease him, he answered concisely and clearly, Xide Nagu's eyes lit up, and there seemed to be a tail wagging behind him.

But he still had to act like he was not interested, muttering in his mouth that he must be trying to rob him of his wife, so he wouldn't be fooled!

"Are you here to exchange salt?" A short, fat middle-aged man walked beside Xu Fei.

When Nagu found someone approaching, he immediately put away his relaxed demeanor and became serious and cold. He had to be vigilant against any creature that was close to his wife without certification.

"Well," Nagu unloaded the back pan, put down the basket, and let him look at the meat inside.

When the man saw the meat, his expression was obviously agitated, and his voice was much louder than before, "Okay, okay, come with me." He picked up the back basket and basket on the ground, afraid that Nagu and the others would repent.

With someone helping him to carry his things, Na Gule was at ease.He also took off Xu Fei's pannier and handed it to the person opposite.Although the man held it with difficulty, he was happy in his heart, and his mouth was also split.

He took the meat and walked quickly.Nagu wasn't worried that he would take the meat and not give him any salt, he just took Xu Fei and slowly fell behind.

Xu Fei looked around while walking, and he found that the people of Yanshan tribe were easy to recognize.It may be that they eat too much salt. Most of them are overweight and not tall.And look at the handsome and tall Nagu, he is simply a good guy among this group of people, well, at least he is also a supermodel of the Fauvism.

The houses here are all made of stones, and they look very rough.Because there are few trees, nothing made of wood can be seen at all.

Xu Fei found that many people were looking at them here. At first he thought they were paying attention, but later he realized that they were all staring at Nagu and whispering.

This discovery made Xu Fei feel a little uncomfortable, and he didn't know why.

Nagu is not sensitive to the eyes of people other than Xu Fei, not to mention that he was used to being pointed at when he was a child, and he automatically ignored the discussions of such three or five people.Because it is not important, it is not noticed at all!

The chunky man's house soon arrived. His house was also built with stones, with a large door and a layer of animal skin curtain hanging on it to keep out the heat outside.

When the curtain was lifted, two piles of salt of different colors were piled on two flat stones.One side has white spots and small particles, which belong to "refined salt"; the other side can be seen to contain impurities. A grain of salt is as big as half the size of a pinky finger, and the color is gray and white. It is really coarse salt.

"Which one do you want?" The middle-aged man pointed to two piles of salt and asked Nagu, "White salt can be exchanged for three arcs (measurement unit), and gray salt can be exchanged for five and a half arcs."

Nagu looked at Xu Fei, the family affairs are decided by the daughter-in-law.

Xu Fei thought that although gray salt could be exchanged for more, but looking at the exchange ratio between it and white salt, he knew that the real salt content in it must not be much.And they will definitely have to wash it again when they go back, otherwise they won't be able to eat it.

Although he knew how to purify the salt, he didn't have any tools at hand, and he didn't know how much it would be wasted. It would be better to replace it with white salt.

"White salt." Xu Fei took the decision.

"Okay, okay." Seeing that they wanted to change the white salt, the man didn't say much.What kind of salt to change is completely voluntary. Looking at the two of them, you can tell that they came from the rainforest. There is a lot of food there, and most of the people who come to change salt want white salt.As long as they have meat in their hands, they can trade it for anything.

The man took out a black funnel-shaped measuring device, and Nagu did not know where to turn it into a few leaves as big as banana leaves and spread them on the ground.

That bucket of salt seemed to be quite a lot, and after three buckets, the big banana leaves that Nagu brought were all used up.Use that kind of leaves to wrap salt, and it is not easy to melt in hot weather.

Nagu divided the three-arc salt into three big bags, and Xu Fei weighed it in his hands. One bag weighed six to seven catties, and the three bags together were enough for the two of them to eat for a year and a half.In this way, the salt here is not very expensive.

The man put away the meat after weighing the salt for them, and when he was still carrying the basket, he boasted that this thing looked very useful.But there are few trees here, and things made of rattan are not suitable here, so he just boasted casually.

Unexpectedly, Nagu made the mistake of flaunting his wife slightly again, and specially emphasized "This is what my partner did!"

The man was only thinking about his flesh, so he just nodded his head copingly and praised his dexterity.

Nagu said what he wanted to say, and didn't care about that person's reaction, he put away the basket and took Xu Fei out.As for Nagu's resolute defense of his patent rights, Xu Fei said: Do whatever you want, as long as you don't just say it to everyone you meet.

After leaving the stone house of the chunky salt merchant, another group of salt traders came outside.Nagu planned to take Xu Fei to walk a little longer at dawn so that he could go home quickly.

People in the mountain tribes do not keep outsiders, because they are afraid that these people will steal their salt.There is no prey near them, and these salt-changers don't want to stay here, they just leave after changing the salt.

"Tired?" Nagu looked at Xu Fei walking beside him, who hadn't had a good rest for so many days, and considered whether to find a place to rest first.

"I'm not tired," Xu Fei wiped the sweat off his brow. After switching to salt, he always felt that his mind was settled, and even his steps were brisk.Now he just wants to go home early and have a good rest.

Why is my daughter-in-law so sensible?If you say you can’t walk anymore, I can carry you on your back.At this moment, Nagu very much hoped that Xu Fei could be a little weaker, and he didn't mind carrying a sweet burden at all.

"Wait!" A short young man stood in front of them, Nagu to be precise.

Xu Fei looked inexplicably at the person who suddenly jumped out to block the way, wearing a red animal skin skirt, with a few colorful pheasant feathers stuck on his head, he looked like a great dancer.

"What's the matter?" Nagu reflexively stood in front of Xu Fei, even though standing in front of him was a weak and fearless female.

"I want to be your female." The man was not as tall as Xu Fei, but his voice was not low.When he yelled in this voice, the people around noticed and laughed and watched.

"No need, I already have a partner!" As long as it wasn't someone who came to snatch Xu Fei, Nagu held Xu Fei's hand behind him with a firm attitude.

The living environment here is not good, and the females here want to pair up with the males outside, so that they can live in places with abundant food.Just now they all noticed that this tall male was carrying two big baskets of meat, all in exchange for white salt, he looked very rich.

At this time, the short female in front was not afraid of being ashamed, anyway, his voice just now had already attracted everyone around him.

"I don't mind giving birth to you with him." The people here are tough, and the words they say are straightforward and bold. They are about to have a baby, and the people watching the excitement want to see this tall young man with a stern face. How to solve this affair.

It wasn't until now that Xu Fei realized what it meant to be a female. The little man on the opposite side said that he was a female and wanted to give birth to Nagu?Are there no women here?

Xu Fei was completely shocked and didn't respond for a long time.

Seeing that Xu Fei didn't speak, Nagu thought he was upset, and hurriedly turned around to explain to Xu Fei: "I only want you, not a child."

"Is he a female? What about me?" Xu Fei pointed to the small man on the opposite side. Could it be that the short stature on this side is all female? He, the person passing through, does not have this function.

"You are a male, just like me!" Seeing that Xu Fei was not angry, Nagu put down his heart.

The little man over there saw that Nagu was only focused on answering the people behind him, and ignored him at all, tears of grievance were about to come out.Although the females on their side are not as good-looking as the females in other places, the females there are not treasures.This male is ignoring himself, or because of another male!It's really maddening!

People around were shocked to hear that the good-looking man standing behind Nagu was a male.Some thick-skinned females ran directly to Xu Fei, intending to see what happened.

A group of people gathered around Ulala, Nagu couldn't care less about the front and the back.They were all female, and he couldn't do anything to them.If there were a group of males around here, Nagu would have beaten them all over the place.

"You are lying, although his pattern is very light white, but he is obviously a female!" A sharp-eyed person noticed a white pattern behind Xu Fei's ear.

Under normal circumstances, the darker the color of the pattern, the better it is to conceive. The almost invisible white pattern like Xu Fei's is almost the same as not being able to conceive.

This said, not only Xu Fei, but even Nagu were stunned.Is my daughter-in-law female?Nagu didn't care what they said, he pushed aside the crowd first, and then carefully checked behind Xu Fei's ear, and found that there was indeed a white pattern that looked like a tree.Could it be that the daughter-in-law was too white before and didn't notice that she has tanned a lot during this period, and the patterns are showing?

Now Xu Fei felt as if he had been blasted by thunder, he couldn't see behind his ears, so he could only ask the big man.

"How?" Don't change!

"There are patterns." Nagu scratched his head, wondering himself.But regardless of whether Xu Fei is male or female, or whether he can have children, Nagu wants to live with him.

Xu Fei felt a little dizzy, why did he become a transgressive monster for no apparent reason?Seeing that no one was paying attention to him, the little man next to him was crying, and the discussions from the people around him also made him have a headache.

"Let's go!" Xu Fei didn't want to stay here for a moment, he forced his way through the crowd, and rushed out of the encirclement first, quiet, he needed quiet!

Seeing that his wife and daughters were gone, Nagu followed closely behind, without even looking at our cannon fodder, leaving him submerged in the crowd.

No one is as important as a daughter-in-law, not to mention that he has now become a sought-after female, so he must be protected!
