Chapter 13: Transaction with the Wasa Tribe
If the other party wants a witch doctor, that is absolutely impossible!
You know, the witch is the lifeline of the tribe. If a tribe loses its witch, it will not be far from decline.
Upon hearing this, the originally excited tribesmen became quiet and the atmosphere became solemn.
There were several young women who wanted to come forward.
"Their chief is very ill and wants to ask our witch doctor to help treat him." Nia continued.
"This..." Everyone fell silent.
The witch is too important to a tribe. What if the other party refuses to let you go after you go there?
Every decision will affect the future and development of the tribe.
Chen Qi was somewhat wary and did not dare to trust any tribal leader easily.
Nia saw the chief's worry and quickly explained, "The Vasha tribe is a small tribe with fewer people than us. The place where they live is very hidden. I fell accidentally and found a cave and went through it before I found it.
The Wasa tribe has survived in there for who knows how many winters.
According to the young chief, no one has entered their territory for nearly a dozen winters, and they are unwilling to communicate with outsiders. I just happened to meet them. This may be the guidance of Mother Nature."
When the patriarch heard this, his expression eased a little and he felt a little relieved.
"They heard about our tribe and gave me a bag of salt in an animal hide for me to take back. As for asking the witch to come over to treat me, they said they would not force me to do so."
Nia paused for a moment here and turned her gaze to Wu Yu who was standing next to the patriarch.
"We can send two warriors to accompany the witch, and leave one at the cave entrance to their territory. If no one of us reaches the cave entrance to communicate after four days, that person will immediately return to the tribe."
"With the strength of our tribe, it is not impossible for us to occupy that place!" Nia said.
What a great idea!
"I'll go!" Wu Yu made the decision immediately.
Chen Qi glanced at the tribe members and nodded.
Chen Qi is not a bloody and brutal leader, nor is he a coward. The Yanyuan tribe just wants to seek a deal, and if the Wasa tribe is scheming, it is not their fault.
After all, everything is for your own tribe.
If the Washa tribe had not made the wrong decision, they would have naturally lived in peace with each other, and they might have become a fixed source of salt in the future.
Trade between the two tribes can also increase the strength of each other's tribes!
Chen Qi always felt that the Shanyan Tribe's severing of its dealings with them and starting to demand women was no small matter. This might be a warning, a beginning.
In this way, under the escort of Nia, Ruth and Yanluo, Wu Yu successfully arrived at the Wasa tribe.
Seven days passed, but no one came back to deliver the news.
Chen Qi also kept his composure and didn't go over immediately, but he became more and more worried, fearing that something might go wrong.
After waiting for ten full days, the four people finally returned, bringing salt and hope to the tribe.
*
The chief of the Washa tribe is a kind old man, and the young chief Wakni and others are also very grateful for Wu Yu's treatment.
Although the Yanyuan tribe came for salt and the survival of the tribe, Wu Yu did save his father.
There are not many people in the Wasa tribe. They live in a hidden valley with a large plain in the middle of the valley. There is plenty of food and a huge salt lake.
To them, scarce salt is not as important as their fellow tribesmen.
After the witch cured the chief of the Washa tribe, several people proposed the idea of using food to conduct a long-term transaction.
But Wakni refused.
He explained: "Our witch passed away suddenly. The current witch is still a child and has not received much blessing from Mother Nature. During his growing days, the people in the tribe will get sick and injured."
"We don't need your food. As long as it's your witches who come to exchange supplies every time, that's enough." Wakni paused for a moment.
"We want Wu Yu to teach our Wu personally until he is ten years old and can receive the blessing of Mother Nature."
This requirement is a bit difficult. In addition to the teachings and inheritance from the previous generation of witches, the most important thing for a witch is to accept the blessing of Mother Nature.
In this strange world, witch doctors are not only good at medicine, but also proficient in witchcraft.
Medical skills mainly come from inheritance and the blessing of Mother Nature, while witchcraft comes more from personal understanding.
The old witch will teach the chosen successor until he returns to nature and the new witch takes over the responsibilities.
But this does not mean that the witch of one tribe will easily pass on his mantle to the witch of other tribes.
No witch had ever done this before, and certainly no tribe would make such an outrageous request.
If a tribe still needs to exist, even if it suddenly loses its witch, Mother Nature will choose a new heir and grant him medical skills in his dreams at night.
For a small tribe like Vasha, it is a blessing to have a chosen witch, which means that they will not be exterminated for the time being.
However, only after the age of ten will the chosen witch begin to receive the induction of Mother Nature and receive blessings at night.
Unfortunately, the original witch of the Wasa tribe passed away suddenly at a young age, before he had the chance to provide any guidance to the young witch.
In order to survive, the tribesmen always have to hunt, and it is inevitable that they will get injured.
After the original witch passed away, the tribe lost three warriors and two cubs in recent winters because there was no witch to treat them. Now the old patriarch is also sick.
Looking at the five-year-old witch, the young chieftain, Vanik, was extremely anxious.
Just when he was about to disobey his father's instructions and pass through the hidden and deep cave to go to the forest outside to seek help from other tribes, he met Nia who broke in accidentally.
The urgent problem was solved in this way.
Wakni knew in his heart that his request was somewhat rude.
But the Yanyuan tribe's urgent need for salt gave him some confidence.
The most urgent need of the Wasa tribe at present is to find someone to teach the witch as he grows up, and someone who can cure diseases.
What the Yanyuan tribe desires most is exactly what their tribe can provide.
Of course, as the young patriarch, Wakni would not easily trust an outsider.
There is another important reason why they are willing to do this - that is the Wuwaya of their tribe.
Waya is a very talented child. He has awakened to the heritage of witchcraft at a young age and can always point the way for the future of the tribe.
Thinking of this, Wakni couldn't help but feel a little proud!
Ever since he could remember, his father had always warned the tribe members not to let outsiders know about this place and not to leave the cave easily.
"Father, why is this?"
"Wakni, father can't directly answer you why. When father was young, there was a very powerful witch in my tribe." Father touched Vanik's head and said slowly.
"After dozens of winters, the tribe will have a new opportunity. Before that, do not have any contact with any foreign tribes, otherwise you will suffer a catastrophic disaster!"
"These are the last words left by the powerful witch before he returned to nature."
My father is a long-lived man. Even after many winters, the tribe has always lived in this difficult-to-find valley and has never left.
Even though the number of people in the tribe was decreasing, my father never doubted the witch's prophecy.
The only exception was a woman who had come in many winters ago, but she stayed.
In this way, the rules set by my father were not broken.
Now, who knows how many winters have passed, and the Wasa tribe is still waiting for that turning point, but it never comes.
The previous witch did not live as long as the old witch and passed away early.
My father also fell ill, and the tribe seemed to be gradually declining.
Yannick began to doubt the prophecy. After all, he had never seen the legendary witch.
Until Nia arrived.
When Nia first stepped into the tribe alone, Wakni wanted to keep him in the tribe forever.
"Let him go. His departure will bring new hope to our tribe."
