Big Islander 2

Chapter 322 Winning the Bid
At the beginning, Triss and Li Muhao just laughed at Tang Jide's almost angry behavior. Through this period of contact, they also understood some of the temperament of the big-headed island owner. To put it bluntly, sometimes with Children almost.

But when Tang Jide sank into the river for a few minutes without showing his face, the two finally panicked: nothing will happen, right? After such a long time, they should come up to take a breather?
They shouldered the important task of protecting this group of people, so of course they couldn't afford to lose, so they prepared to go down the river to find people.In the end, he was stopped by the pheasant: "Don't worry about it, the big head just sleeps down there and then comes up again, nothing will happen."

Regarding the pheasant's words, the two of them didn't dare to believe it, so they both forgot about Xiao Xiami, and felt relieved when they saw the little girl nodding with a smile.

After more than half an hour, I saw the water tens of meters ahead suddenly turned over, and then Tang Jide flew out of the water, holding a shiny stone in his hand, shining colorful lights in the sun: "Haha, I found another opal!"

"Shit luck—" the pheasant murmured, a bit like saying that the grapes were sour when they couldn't eat them.This is also a helpless thing, whoever told Mr. Pheasant to go into the water will become drowned.

Tang Jide came back by stepping on the water all the way, shaking the shiny stone in front of the pheasant a few times, feeling very unhappy.After the initial polishing by the water flow, the opal looks very gorgeous, as if the rainbow has been crushed and hidden in the stone, which is really exciting.Even the female kangaroos around were attracted by Tang Jide and surrounded him.

The pheasant smacked its lips: "Just make a token of love for the female kangaroo—"

Before the words fell, Tang Jide felt a pain in his leg when he heard the sound of whoosh breaking through the air, and he jumped up with an ouch, and then fell to the ground.On his thigh, there was a spear sticking out.

The kangaroos also seemed to sense the danger, and began to flee one after another. At the same time, there was a loud and noisy shouting not far away, and a large group of almost naked black people appeared in people's field of vision. Waving spears and bows and arrows, they threw themselves at the group of kangaroos.

"This is an Australian aborigine, it can't be a cannibal, run away—" the pheasant yelled in a broken voice, it is not a human, and it is afraid of cannibals.

Tang Jide also pulled out the spear that was stuck on his thigh, and at the same time ran the plant essence to stop the blood on his leg, and then struggled to stand up: "Brother hasn't done any good deeds today, let's put these guys down first! "

When it comes to the experience of dealing with the aborigines in various places, Brother Datou can be said to be the most abundant. Due to the differences in language and habits, the best way is to control the other party first. Generally speaking, the more primitive the tribe, the more worship it is. strength.

But before he could swing his cane whip, the soldier Triss waved his hands to meet him, yelling something.It was only then that Tang Jide noticed that Tris had a dark complexion, which was not much different from those of the natives.Because Australia is also a country of immigrants, Tang Jide thought he was of African descent.

Soon, the natives put down their weapons and slowly gathered around.Seeing this situation, the pheasant couldn't help being a little disappointed: It seems that it can't fight anymore——

Tris led a few natives to Tang Jide, and saw that these guys were tall and strong, with long hair and shawls, with an inherent wildness; tattoos of various colors were painted on their bodies, and some of them Personally, there are circles of tattoos on his arms, which seem to be scars formed after intentional cuts.Probably in their conception, this is the symbol of the brave.

An old man with a long beard bowed to Tang Jide in the lead, and he didn't know what to say in his mouth. Judging from his appearance, he was obviously apologizing.Tris also explained from the side: They came out to hunt kangaroos, but they didn't notice that there were still people in the kangaroo group, and accidentally injured Tang Jide.

Seeing the sincerity of the old man with the white beard, Tang Jide could only admit that he was unlucky.In essence, he is also an aborigine, so he is relatively close to the aborigines of various countries. Since it was a misunderstanding, it's fine. Big Brother is not a small-bellied person.

But the pheasant is a character who refuses to suffer. It landed on Tang Jide's shoulder: "Old man, this matter is not over. You hurt someone, so you have to pay for some medical expenses. You are so poor that you can't even wear pants." Well, just give me the stone on my chest—"

The old man was shirtless, with a large piece of opal hanging around his neck, and it was black opal, which was bigger than the pheasant just now, and the color was more attractive, so the pheasant was interested in Cai.

Although it was difficult for Tris to fully translate what the pheasant said, he also spoke to the general effect.The old man opened his mouth wide and let out a hearty laugh, then took off the black opal around his neck and hung it on the pheasant.Tris was on the side to translate: "The Ulu patriarch said that since we are friends, everything can be shared."

Refreshing enough - Pheasant praised in his heart, but soon became careful again, and whispered to Daxing: take good care of our own things, and don't let them give them away.

The old man named Ulu stepped forward to check Tang Jide's wound again, then took out a crock pot from the hands of the tribe, scooped out some black mucus, and was about to wipe it on Tang Jide's thigh.

Tang Jide sniffed his nose twice, and finally smelled a foul smell. He wanted to reject the other party's kindness, but he was afraid of being cold-hearted.You must know that these natives are very simple, and you must pay attention to the method and method of rejecting them, otherwise it will easily cause their dissatisfaction and delete you from the list of friends.

But Brother Big Head is a veteran who has traveled the world. He reached out to take the so-called ointment, and after sensing it with plant essence, he found that there were several anti-inflammatory and hemostatic herbs in it, but the workmanship was relatively rough, so it was fake Not great, but the utility should be pretty good.

So he secretly circulated the plant essence, quickly purified the black mud-like ointment in his palm, turned it into a dark brown powder, and sprinkled it on the wound.Originally, most of the blood on the wound had stopped, so the powder was sprinkled on it, and the bleeding was completely stopped immediately.

The eyes of the Wulu patriarch lit up, and then he bent down and sniffed the powdered leg, and he smelled a spicy fragrance. Flavored salve?

Of course, Tang Jide guessed what he was thinking, so he took the earthen pot from the arms of the strong black man, purified all the ointment inside, and returned it to Ulu.

Ulu glanced into the crock pot, then sniffed it again, and began to yell.So, the strong man just now carefully hugged the jar tightly, as if it contained some treasure.

Even Tris admired the owner of the big head island. You must know that the life of Australian aborigines is very difficult. They basically live a nomadic life and usually have to hunt to fill their stomachs.In many places in Australia, the aborigines are not welcomed by others, and it is very rare to be as friendly as Tang Jide.

The most important thing is that Tris was also born in an aboriginal family, but fortunately he was educated since he was a child, so he integrated into the normal society.But as a soldier of Aboriginal origin, he deeply understood the tragic fate of Aboriginal people in Australia.Although he really wanted to change this situation, he was suffering from incapacity.Not to mention him, even the Australian government has a headache for these aborigines.

It is precisely because of this that Tris respects Tang Jide even more.The head of the Wulu tribe could also feel the respect and kindness of this group of people, so he was very sympathetic, so he graciously invited Tang Jide and his party to visit their tribe.

Tang Jide readily agreed, and compared with those politicians in suits and ties, he prefers dealing with these natives.As for the group of ostriches, they were also gathered together by Xiao Xiami. She, Da Xing and He Tiantian all rode on a big kangaroo, and followed the aborigines bouncing around, which attracted their amazed gazes.

As a patient, Tang Jide certainly wanted to enjoy this kind of treatment, but he had no choice but to give up after crushing the two female kangaroos.On the contrary, the head of the Wulu tribe called two strong men over to lift Tang's head up on two wooden poles, trembling as if sitting on a sedan chair.

Dozens of aborigines, followed by hundreds of kangaroos, walked for more than ten miles and came to a canyon.There are rivers running through the bottom of the valley, so the vegetation on both sides is relatively luxuriant, mostly bushes, and some tall trees, such as the most common eucalyptus in Australia, straight into the blue sky, forming huge canopies.

In the Chaoyang area to the south of the valley, there are wooden houses, which are very large. It seems that the scale of this tribe is not small.There are flocks of sheep and camels grazing by the river, these are the greatest wealth in the tribe.

Far away, a large group of people rushed out from the tribe, mostly women and children, and they greeted them with a lot of shouting and excitement.The little dolls who ran in the front, with white tattoos painted on their chests and arms, were all naked and galloped all the way, but their eyes all fell on the kangaroos: the harvest of this hunt is really great Ah, I can finally open my belly to eat meat——

This is simply a bunch of little hungry wolves - Tang Jide couldn't help but feel emotional, the situation of this tribe can be seen from this.Compared with the Indian tribes he encountered in the United States, they may be far inferior.

Afterwards, many women also ran up to them, looking at the kangaroos with bright eyes.Fortunately, the head of the Ulu clan explained it to them, and the women and children knew that these kangaroos were the private property of the little girl.They wondered: Where did this rich man come from? There are so many kangaroos, enough to feed them for several years.

After seeing the eyes of these people, even Xiao Xiami was a little worried, wondering if it would be better to dismiss the kangaroo group?
Just as he was hesitating, he heard the screams of pheasants. He hurriedly looked around and saw a group of little black boys with bare buttocks, waving javelins, poking at the pheasants. A flamboyant big bird is also used as food.

"You deserve it, this time you also won the bid!" Tang Jide gloated at the side. When he was impaled by a spear just now, the pheasant said a lot of cheap things. He didn't expect the retribution to come so quickly.
