Chapter 307: Struggle for the Roots of Equipment, Secret Matters
The cave was still echoing with the clever words.
Daqi's heart is full of emotion and excitement, and Xiao Jiling is really his right-hand man.
"Ji Ling, are you telling the truth?"
"Yes, Dagen first went to the Mule tribe, but was told that there was no salt. Then he went to the Dao tribe and made a deal with them, finally getting salt."
Dagen asked calmly:
"Do you think these salts are from the Xia tribe?"
"These salts were traded by the Dao tribe from Shang Jiu, and Shang Jiu was traded by the Xia tribe."
"That's also from the Xia tribe."
Daqi was so angry that he cursed:
"You bitch! What are you talking about? Are you shameless? Where is the Xia tribe?"
Most people in the cave believed that what Da Qi said was true, and that Da Gen's behavior was actually a sneaky act, which was extremely shameless.
Little Jiling asked the people around him:
"Do you know where the salt is obtained?"
Dagen suddenly felt scared, he was afraid that Little Smart would say it.
However, Xiao Jiling was on Daqi's side after all, so he just heard him say:
“In order to obtain these salts, Dagen gave the ‘Black Stone Ridge’ of the Gen tribe to the Dao tribe.”
This was the most shocking information so far. The people in the cave thought they had heard it wrong, but the clever voice echoed in the cave like thunder, making everyone's eardrums hurt.
This night, the fate of the Root Tribe changed here.
"Ahem..."
A series of coughs attracted everyone's attention.
Everyone turned around and saw Lao Gen standing there, his face pale, but his eyes extremely firm.
"Da Gen, is what Xiao Jiling said true?"
Da Gen faced Lao Gen's question. He calmed down and answered as the woman Ying taught him:
"Hey, who doesn't know that Xiao Jiling used to follow me? He was not reused by me, and later he was transferred to Da Qi. He had resentment, so he framed me like this. Do you know why I didn't reuse him? You know Xiao Jiling's
What is ambition? Let me tell you, he wants to be the shaman of the root tribe."
Wow, it’s getting more and more exciting. A person who has never attracted anyone’s attention can have such great ambitions; an ambitious person may do or say things that everyone can’t believe.
Can you still believe such a smart guy?
If the words of a small clever person cannot be trusted, then can the words of a big root be believed?
Everyone could no longer tell the truth from the false and started talking about it one after another.
There was an atmosphere of mystery and tension in the air, as if something more unexpected would happen at any time.
Amid everyone's discussion, Lao Gen slowly spoke, his voice full of majesty:
"In our tribe, being a leader requires not only wisdom, but also courage. Da Gen, who can testify to what you and Xiao Jiling said? These salts are controversial and will not be counted. Who among the caravans waiting for you to trade will return to Gen first?
The tribe shall prevail.”
Da Gen's eyes flickered. He stared at La Gen closely, as if he was watching his own life and death. Then, he nodded.
Da Qi should have been happy, but he couldn't be happy when he saw Da Qi like this.
The air in the cave solidified again, and everyone's eyes were focused on Dagen and Daqi.
The struggle between them is definitely not over yet.
As time passed little by little, the sky turned white, and there was no trace of fog in the morning today.
Lao Gen seemed tired. As he grew older, his body became weaker, just as his power and influence gradually decreased. His tribe also gradually lost its prosperity and strength in the past, and began to have various problems, which
It caused intense anxiety and uneasiness in his heart.
The source of his recent anxiety and uneasiness is that he cannot determine who will be the next leader of the Root Tribe, because Daqi and Dagen each have their own advantages.
It was only two days ago that he confirmed Da Qi as the new leader of the Root Tribe, and Da Gen was fighting hard and would not admit defeat, leaving him wondering what to do.
Therefore, Lao Gen wanted to persuade Da Gen to give up, but he was worried that Da Gen's resistance would cause the tribe to split, so he decided to give it a try.
"I'm a little tired, Dagen, you come with me."
Lao Gen walked towards the deepest part of the cave, where Lao Gen usually slept.
Da Gen stepped forward to support Lao Gen.
There is a vegetable oil lamp in the cave that uses unknown fuel, and the light it emits is very dim.
"Dagan, who do you think is the best leader for our tribe?"
Lao Gen lay on the gem bed and asked slowly.
"It's not up to me to be the leader. It's better to wait for the trade caravan to return."
"Although you are not as powerful as you, you also have shortcomings. Wu said that your character is too strong, you cannot listen to the advice of others, you are too reckless and impulsive in doing things, and you often do not use your brain and rely on brute force. As a root, you
The leader of the tribe, Wu expressed that he is very worried that you will lead the entire root tribe to destruction."
After hearing this, Dagen's hatred of witches became even stronger. This was the most serious slander to him, but he could not defend himself at the moment.
"Hey, this is how Wu sees me, so what does he think of Daqi?"
"Although Wu Shuo Daqi is a bit wild, he is very filial, and he is honest, honest, and hard-working. He is a person worthy of trusting Gen Tribe."
"Wuzhen would say that Dad also thinks so?"
Lao Gen looked at this tall man. Although this was not his biological son, he had always treated him like his own son. It was just that he was partial when it came to the new leader.
"Great filial piety."
"When it comes to filial piety, it seems that this is the only good thing about being generous, but not necessarily being honest and honest."
"You...what do you know?"
"I didn't check him before, so I don't know, but these days, in order to find the Xia tribe, I pay more attention to the people around Da Qi. It turns out that Da Qi has a grudge against the Xia tribe, so Da Qi should have offended the Xia tribe. Da Qi
In order to take revenge, he had several conflicts with the Xia tribe, but he never won. Dad knows this, right?"
"I didn't check him before, so I didn't know, but these days, in order to find the Xia tribe, I paid more attention to the people around Da Qi. It turns out that Da Qi and the Xia tribe have a big feud, and Da Qi offended the Xia tribe. In order to take revenge,
Daqi clashed with the Xia tribe several times, but he never won. Dad knows this, right?"
"This... I've heard of it."
"So, Daqi did not trade salt and pottery with the Xia tribe at all, which means he cannot be the leader of the Gen tribe."
"But he said he could trade with the Xia tribe."
"My dad didn't just hear about it. You and Wu should know very well that Da Qi is lying. If Da Qi becomes the leader of the Gen tribe, the Gen tribe will have no salt to eat and no pottery to use."
"Will this happen?"
"Where are the two identical women who serve you?"
"This, they are being taken away by Da Qi."
"It's not Daqi's place. I know where they are, in the Xia tribe. Dad, do you know why they are in the Xia tribe?"
"I don't know, Da Qi didn't say."
"That's great. Since I'm your biological son, I have everything. I rely entirely on myself, and I made everything myself.
"You are better at this than you are."
"If Da Qi becomes the leader of the Root Tribe, and you say he will have another conflict with the Xia Tribe, will the Root Tribe still exist?"
"With you as my great weapon, my tribe will be fine."
"My father is really kind to Da Qi. I always thought that I was not my father's biological son, so I let my father treat me like this. But I want to ask, is Da Qi really your biological son?"
Lao Gen suddenly sat up and stared at Da Gen with his opened eyes, as if he was afraid that Da Gen would reveal the secrets of his life.
"You...what do you know?"
Da Gen looked at Lao Gen's expression and made a decision in his heart.
"A few days ago, I met an old woman. She claimed to be your woman before, and said she had known you since she was a child. She told me that you have no ability to have children at all, and that big child is not your biological child."
Lao Gen's lifelong lies were exposed. He lay helpless on the bed, stared hard and stopped talking.
"That old woman said that your lower body was already useless, and that your great talent was the bad offspring of that old woman and a witch. What's funny is that the witch didn't know about this. He should have always regretted getting along with that woman. It was just convenient.
I married you and got a son for nothing, and no one doubted you. It’s just that you were so cruel, but you drove that woman away.”
"You...ahem..."
Lao Gen started coughing non-stop. This matter was too private, and Da Gen actually knew everything.
"He's not your biological son, why do you always prefer him?"
Da Gen suddenly stretched out his hand and covered Lao Gen's mouth.
Lao Gen tried to pry it open with both hands, but how could he have so much strength? The phlegm in his throat was stuck, making it even more difficult for him to breathe.
Da Gen's thick arms remained motionless, and his cattail-like palms pressed firmly against Lao Gen's nose and mouth.
"Dad, if you die, I will be the leader of the tribe. I will not tell your secrets, and I will spare the life of that great weapon. Do you think this is okay?"
After hearing Da Gen's words, Lao Gen's struggling body suddenly let go and stopped moving. He looked at Da Gen with tears in his eyes, gradually losing his luster.
Da Gen felt the departure of Lao Gen's life, let go of his hand, and covered Lao Gen with the animal skin.
Then he put his hand under Lao Gen's nose for a moment, and then took it back after confirming that it was okay.
