Translator: Atlas Studios Editor: Atlas Studios
“Free and unfettered, Carefree City. This name is good!”
Cui Shize was very satisfied with the name of the city and hurriedly went to inform everyone.
As soon as he left, Chu Tianbao immediately looked at Bai Wutong with concern. “Are you tired? Do you want to rest for a while more?”
Bai Wutong was a little tired, but her body was still strong. She shook her head. “I’m not tired. I still have to see the children and teach them how to make delicious cocoa fruits.”
Chu Tianbao followed her out of the tent.
The children’s motivation to eat delicious food was not to be underestimated. Almost all the ripe cocoa fruits around them had been picked by them. There were eight baskets of them. The little children lined up like soldiers waiting for Bai Wutong and Chu Tianbao to inspect them.
As usual, Bai Wutong praised everyone. Then, she officially taught everyone how to make chocolate. The first step was to take out the flesh from the cocoa fruit.
It was too dangerous to let the children use a knife. But it was still possible for them to dig out the flesh.
With the help of Auntie Yang and the others, the eight baskets of cocoa fruits were quickly cut open.
The children surrounded the eight wooden basins and imitated Bai Wutong to take out all the flesh in the cocoa fruits and place them in the wooden basins.
Between them, they were competing to see who could cut off the flesh faster.
Little Cat meticulously dug out the flesh of the cocoa fruit. Compared to other carefree children, he looked especially mature and sensible. His obedience made one’s heart ache.
Bai Wutong sighed. She wanted him to be as happy as an ordinary child. Instead, it was as if she had given him a difficult task and it became his pressure.
With everyone’s concerted efforts, the cocoa fruits were quickly processed.
The fermentation container that Bai Wutong had someone prepare quickly came in handy.
When the children picked the cocoa fruits, some of them were picked the leaves as well. When the leaves were spread at the bottom of the wooden bucket to ferment, there would be a more fragrant smell.
Bai Wutong got someone to wash it and place the leaves in the wooden bucket. The older children did as they were told. Instead, Stinky sat on Chu Tianbao’s head and watched closely how Bai Wutong did it.
After the leaves were laid down, she placed all the flesh of the cocoa fruit in and sealed it tightly. Bai Wutong said to everyone, “Because water will come out when the cocoa fruit is fermented, you must choose a container that can seep water at the bottom. Then, place it at the temperature of early summer and ferment it for seven days before we proceed to the next step.”
The children had no concept of 25 degree celsius, but everyone had experienced the temperature of early summer.
In an instant, they looked enlightened.
Little Cat asked curiously, “How can it always be at the temperature of early summer?”
Even if the temperature was higher in the day, the temperature would drop at night.
Bai Wutong smiled and led the children to a greenhouse that allowed fermentation. The greenhouse was temporarily built and was very small. It was just enough to put down these wooden buckets.
Bai Wutong smiled and said, “Just keep the temperature in the room at early summer.”
With that, she showed everyone the structure of the greenhouse.
Some of the little children were not interested, but some found the greenhouse magical. In any case, it was a precious practical experience for the children.
Suddenly, Huang Thong rushed out of the forest with a banana hanging from his head and a banana in his hand. He even shouted, “Madam, help!!!”
The dark guard suddenly pulled out his sword and stood in front of Bai Wutong and Chu Tianbao.
After Huang Thong appeared, there was a commotion in the forest. A bronze-skinned girl in a turf dress and bare limbs appeared in everyone’s line of sight.
She held a bow and arrow. The tip of the arrow was smeared with poison and she aimed at Huang Thong’s back.
‘Whoosh
The poisonous arrow shot out without hesitation. Lin Yue cut off the arrow with his sword. In the next second, the girl shot another arrow.
This arrow was aimed at Lin Yue’s glabella.
The moment she drew her bow, many more men and women in turf skirts appeared in the forest behind her. Some stood in the trees, some behind the girl, some with spears in their hands, some with torches.
It was... quite primitive.
The dark guard shot out a stone and hit the girl in the chest. The girl let go of the bow weakly, and the poisonous arrow fell to the ground.
She covered her chest, wanting to see who had ambushed her. Her clansmen also raised their weapons and locked onto the intruders who had invaded their territory.
Lu Ye said to Chu Tianbao, “This should be a primitive tribe in the area.” He took another look at Huang Zhong, who was trembling with a banana in his hand. “It’s probably that brother who picked what they were guarding.”
The girl said in broken Chinese, “You guys, crawl!!!”
The clansmen behind her also raised their weapons with the girl and shouted, “Crawl!!!”
Chu Tianbao frowned. “Is there anyone who understands their language?”
There were many tribes in the southern frontier, and the language of each tribe was different. No one understood the language of this tribe.
The girl, who had recovered, raised her weapon again and shot them without hesitation.
‘Whoosh
A poisonous arrow was shot out, followed by countless poisonous arrows behind her.
Not only did they shoot arrows, but they also threw torches at the team, trying to make Bai Wutong and the others retreat.
Everyone was forced back by the poisonous arrow. The girl shouted again, “Crawl!!!”
With a look from Chu Tianbao, the dark guards quickly stepped forward and restrained the girl like a gust of wind. In an instant, the girl’s clansmen said clearly, “Duo!!!”
That was probably the girl’s name.
Duo wanted to shout at her clansmen to ignore her and continue attacking. In the next second, she was about to be gagged by the dark guards who had expected this.
Duo could not speak and her limbs were tied up. Her clansmen shouted angrily, but they did not dare to act rashly anymore.
She was brought to Chu Tianbao. Duo glared at Chu Tianbao angrily and kept rubbing her hands to break free from the rope.
Chu Tianbao said, “The fittest survives. It’s natural selection. You can either put down your weapons or die.”
It was unknown how much Mandarin she knew, but she kept glaring at Chu Tianbao, wishing she could kill him with her eyes.
Chu Tianbao gestured for the dark guard to take out the linen cloth from her mouth. Duo opened her mouth and said, “Crawl, crawl, crawl!!!”
It looked like they didn’t understand. Or maybe they did, but they didn’t want to.
Tribes would also compete for territories.
If they could not win, they could only be expelled, submit, or merge into a tribe.
In the end, they were the ones who had invaded the place where this tribe relied on to survive. Bai Wutong did not want Chu Tianbao to kill them. It would be best if everyone could coexist peacefully. If not, she could only expel them from here.
However, being unable to communicate was really a huge problem.
Just as the two sides were in a deadlock, the native tribe suddenly dispersed and a man in a long robe walked out with bare arms.
Compared to the other savages, he was indeed very dignified.
Cui Shize found him especially familiar and shouted in confusion, “Song Benhua?’
