Big Islander 2

Chapter 497 Hope Tree

Although the tribal wizard lost, he justly accused Tang Datou of cheating. Judging from the whole battle, he actually had the upper hand. After all, Tang Jide made two big somersaults, which is obvious to all.

Tang Jide couldn't help scratching the back of his head, motioning for Shi Dan'er to translate for him: "How can you really be convinced?"

"As long as you show witchcraft that satisfies them all—" Shi Dan'er knew the meaning of this, so he didn't need to translate for the other party at all, and gave Tang Jide an accurate answer directly.

That's it, it's much simpler - Tang Jide rummaged through the pitcher for a while, and then took out an oval object with a point at one end, and the surface was covered with grooves.Tossed it a few times in the hand, and then handed it to the opponent's wizard.

The wizard held it up and looked at it for a long time, then shook his head, expressing that he didn't recognize it.However, he still put it into his mouth and bit it more professionally. It was relatively hard and a little bit toothache.On the other hand, the big star approached Tang Jide slyly, rummaging with his little paws: "When did I eat the peach, and there was a peach pit left, I don't know if there are any fresh peaches?"
Ever since he left Peach Blossom Island, Da Xing hadn't eaten any fresh fruit, so he was really hungry.Especially after arriving on this island, because it is already north of the tree line, there are no trees growing at all, let alone fruit trees.

"Don't be fussy, just wait for a while." Tang Jide patted Daxing's thorny head, then took back the peach pit from the wizard, found a depression on the ground, and buried the peach pit directly.

When Daxing saw this, he jumped up and down excitedly, causing all the little kids to follow it and yell.Although they didn't know what the big-headed wizard was going to do, they all believed in the big star, so it must be a good thing to know.

The other people in the tribe also consciously gathered in a large circle, watching Tang Jide's performance with wide eyes, and the heads of big fluffy dogs stick out from the gap between people's thighs. It is estimated that these sled dogs also thought they were doing something good For food, prepare to share a piece of meat or something.

With so many people watching, Tang Jide couldn't lose face, so he circled around the buried peach pit a few times, pretended to dance for a while, muttered again, and finally yelled a few times: "Long, long, long!" -"

"God's stick—" Pheasant poked his head to reveal the truth, but was quickly closed by the boss.

A miraculous scene appeared. Under the cover of snow, a green sprout emerged from the crevice of the stone. Against the cold wind of the Arctic, it began to spread its branches and leaves, and it grew to a height of more than one meter in the blink of an eye. small tree.

In the wilderness, on the ice and snow, and in the wind, the fresh green is so intoxicating.The Inuit people living here rarely see green even in summer, so their shock can be imagined.

What's more, this is still a magical little tree.In their lives, most people don't know what trees look like.

With a puff, the wizard prostrated himself on the ground first, muttering in his mouth, and worshiped this magical tree; afterward, all the natives prostrated themselves on the ground, they were praising life!
Tang Jide also did not expect the reaction of these natives to be so strong. If he was showing off at the beginning, then now, he only respects them: although their basic necessities are still very simple, but compared to those well-dressed Civilized people, they know how to respect life.

So step up to stimulate the plant essence in the body, and try to promote the growth of peach trees.Visible to the naked eye, the peach tree grew to a height of more than two meters, and then suddenly, like a spring breeze overnight, pink flower buds bloomed in this wasteland.

This is definitely the first peach tree here. They weave a pink dream for the Inuit people in front of them.

Those people crawling under the tree sucked their noses vigorously, as if they wanted to inhale all the fragrance of flowers into their lungs, and keep it in the depths of their memory forever——

However, in less than a minute, the peach blossoms withered, and the petals fell on people's shoulders, on their hats, and even on their hands, but no one moved, no one was willing to brush. Go to the petals on the body.I don't know who made the first sob, and then all the natives cried bitterly. They wanted to keep this beautiful bouquet forever, but they couldn't do anything.

"Huh—" A little doll was the first to let out an exclamation, pointing to a small fruit on the peach tree with his red finger.

Only then did people notice that the trees were full of small fluffy fruits, and their eyes lit up again. The flowers are beautiful, but the fruits are even more exciting.

Like the wind blowing, the peaches on the tree kept growing.This time, Brother Big Tou also spent a lot of money, and the plant essence was thrown out without money.And in this environment, the consumption was even greater, and later, Brother Big Tou was a little powerless.However, looking at the extremely expectant eyes of the Inuit, he still gritted his teeth and fought hard!
Finally, another long 10 minutes passed, during which Tang Jide stuffed Zijin Dan into his mouth several times. With his efforts and people's expectations, the peaches on the tree grew to the size of a fist, and then half of them turned red. The face, like a smile blooming in winter, is so alluring.People are greedily moving their noses, the fragrance is so intoxicating.

Oh oh——The big star jumped up to the tree, and monkey picking peaches is its best skill.The bright red peaches were thrown into the hands of the children, who held them carefully in their arms.

Sitting on the tree branch, Comrade Vasili began to demonstrate. Its little paws skillfully peeled the peaches, and then took a bite of the bright red flesh, and the juice flowed horizontally.

The little dolls naturally followed suit, and when they took a bite of a peach, happiness flooded their faces: "Sweet, so sweet!"

This is the sweet feeling, the wizard took a bite of a peach, and then burst into tears; the others also took a bite of a peach, and then giggled for a while.

The only exception is Shidan'er. He was tired of eating fruit all day on Peach Blossom Island, so he didn't follow suit to grab the peaches. Instead, he helped Tang Jide who had collapsed on the ground: "Now I believe it, you really He is a great wizard!"

This evaluation was also recognized by all the natives. They shouted something in unison, which seemed to completely agree with Tang Jide's identity.

Although he is very tired now, Brother Big Tou has never been so relieved like this. Looking at those simple and sincere faces, looking at those pairs of extremely respectful eyes, Brother Big Tou feels that all the sacrifices are worth it.

This is the most sincere emotion among the natives. Maybe the language is different, maybe the habits are different, but as long as you give your heart, you can get it back!

The peaches on the tree are basically gone by hand. After tasting this delicious fruit carefully, the peach pits are collected by these Inuit people.They firmly believe that this thing has incomparably magical powers.

As for the peach tree, it soon withered in the cold wind. Maybe it would never germinate again, maybe it would wither and die, but Tang Jide didn't regret it, and didn't think what he had done was thankless .Even if this peach tree blooms and bears fruit only once in its life, its life is the most meaningful if it can be given to those who need it most——

But the Inuit people present would never watch the sacred tree in their minds freeze to death like this. They took off the leather clothes on their bodies one after another, and then carefully wrapped them on those branches; Bai Xue buried the roots of the tree. This tree was their hope, and was later called the hope tree by all the Inuit.

When Tang Jide came here again a few years later, he was surprised to find that the peach tree was still tenaciously alive, just like these Inuit people, no matter how bad the environment is, their lives have always continued .

Moreover, there are a few small peaches hanging sporadically on the tree, which are regarded as divine fruits by the people in the tribe.In this situation, even Big Tou was confused. He didn't know whether it was because the peach tree was transformed by his plant essence and had super vitality, or it was taken care of by the Inuit people...

After the peach trees were finished, it was almost dark.It was almost winter now, so the sun just drew a small arc in the southern sky, and then disappeared below the horizon, and night, with it, fell.

People scrambled to surround Tang Jide and invited him to their home as a guest. Of course, the original wizard was the first to take the lead. Tang Jide and Shi Daner both went to his home; Where was the little doll dragged?

As for Xiao Xiami, there is no need for Tang Jide to worry about it. It is estimated that the little girl will definitely stay there to accompany the polar bear.She won't leave without leading these big stupid bears on the road.Therefore, Tang Jide just asked the wizard to send a few people to deliver some food to Xiao Xiami.

Entering the house, there is no heating facility, but at least it is warmer than outside, and Mr. Pheasant finally got out of the pitcher, yelling: "Big head, you are not mean, why don't you leave me a fresh peach?" !"

The appearance of the pheasant surprised the shaman and several respected elders of the tribe: what kind of bird is this? It can even talk?

In the end, it was Shi Dan'er who threw his uneaten peach to the pheasant, and the guy stopped.But after taking two bites, he saw a three or four-year-old girl next to him staring at it eagerly, and Mr. Pheasant couldn't eat it anymore. He took the peach to the little girl, and the little guy gnawed his face full of juice.

Soon, big fish and big meat were served. The Inuit people are very hospitable, and Tang Jide has a high prestige in their hearts, so they brought out all the delicious food, including smoked venison and various dishes. Fish, anyway, apart from big fish and big meat, there is no vegetarian food—that is, there is no vegetable in this place.

Brother Datou was not too polite, he sat cross-legged on a piece of deerskin, grabbed the venison and tore a piece. It felt very smokey, and the meat was still bloody, but it was chewy.

After chewing two mouthfuls, I felt a bit unsatisfactory: there is no feast without meat, but the Inuit do not have food to make wine.Just regretting it, the few people who brought food to Xiao Xiami and the others came back, holding wine bottles in their arms excitedly.It seems that Xiao Xiami is thoughtful and even prepared the wine.

So why not be polite, drink it, Brother Big Head picked up a bottle, gulped down two gulps, and then handed it over to the wizard.Tang Jide couldn't help but be speechless: It's all a joke.

As the saying goes, a thousand cups of wine are rare for a bosom friend. Although it is cold and windy outside, the house is full of pride and friendship.When they were drunk, everyone also took off their leather jackets and went into battle shirtless.

At this time, as soon as the door opened, a man walked in with a little boy, and then directly stuffed the little boy into Tang Jide's arms.The big head brother was drinking well, so he had no time to think about it, so he grabbed a piece of meat and handed it to the little baby.

He only heard the man muttering sincerely for a while, and Shi Dan'er also showed a strange look on his face.After all, Brother Big Tou hadn't drunk much, so he asked, "What did he say, do you want wine or meat?"

Shi Dan'er shook his head: "He didn't want anything, but he wanted to give you the most precious gift—Big Head, congratulations, you picked up a fat son for nothing—"
