I am a Primitive Man
Chapter 486 – raising a hawk
After hesitating for a long time, the former leader of the Donkey Tribe, now known as Miao, came to find Han Cheng.
The blood on his face had been cleaned up, and compared to his previous frenzy, he seemed much more sober now. However, his anxiety had not lessened much.
The unexpected reunion of the Pig Tribe leader, Shang, with his people had touched him deeply. The fact that people from the Pig Tribe survived the long attack from that evil tribe gave him hope. His tribe had been attacked by the evil tribe for a shorter time, and judging from the bodies left in the cave, some people had been taken away.
This meant that there might still be survivors in his tribe. If they could defeat that evil tribe, they could quickly rescue their people.
Now that they have captured a few members of the evil tribe, with their guidance, they should be able to find their real cave and not miss it as they did last time.
With so many people in the tribe, they could attack the evil tribe. Moreover, the Divine Child said he would not stand by and do nothing.
After hearing Miao’s intention, Han Cheng thought momentarily before shaking his head and rejecting Miao’s suggestion.
If it were a matter of dealing with a tribe with a small number of people, then taking the initiative would be fine. But now, according to the information from Tu Mao, the evil tribe had more adults than the current Green Sparrow Tribe. And there was a fierce, unknown large monster involved. In this situation, how could he abandon the huge advantage of the walls and his territory to confront the evil tribe head-on?
Even if the Green Sparrow Tribe managed to win with their weapons and trained soldiers, it would still be a victory.
This was not something he wanted to see.
Han Cheng explained the pros and cons to him.
The former Donkey Tribe leader was highly disappointed. He was desperate for revenge against the evil tribe and to rescue the captured people, but the Divine Child was not ready to fight.
“￥……”
After Han Cheng’s explanation, the reluctant Donkey Tribe leader said one more thing.
Before he could finish speaking, the Eldest Senior Brother, standing aside, landed a heavy punch on the Donkey Tribe leader’s face, knocking him to the ground. He then kicked the fallen leader several times in frustration.
Han Cheng watched this scene with a slight frown but did not intervene.
Without needing the Eldest Senior Brother to translate, Miao’s expression and the Eldest Senior Brother’s reaction clearly indicated that Miao had essentially questioned Han Cheng’s decision.
That was going too far. Some discipline was necessary.
It wasn’t that Han Cheng wanted to impose a dictatorship or suppress dissent, but Miao’s behavior was simply unacceptable.
From his reaction, it seemed he did not regard the Green Sparrow Tribe as his own. He did not seem to care about the safety of the Green Sparrow Tribe’s people.
Even after Han Cheng had explained the situation, Miao still recklessly endangered the entire tribe for a few people from his former tribe.
The sudden violence from the Eldest Senior Brother shocked everyone. They didn’t understand why the leader had acted this way.
After gathering and learning the reasons from the Eldest Senior Brother, the Green Sparrow Tribe members were enraged.
They had always been respectful to the Divine Child, and this outsider, who had joined their tribe in trouble, dared to treat the Divine Child in such a manner which was unforgivable.
Even the gray-haired shaman could not resist giving a kick to the crouched Donkey Tribe leader.
The other six members of the Donkey Tribe were also dragged over by the angry Green Sparrow Tribe members, including two who were still injured and had been recovering in the house.
“We don’t welcome you!”
“Daring to question the Divine Child…”
“You did not care about our lives, and we will not care about yours…”
“Expel them…”
The furious members of the Green Sparrow Tribe roared. If Han Cheng had not intervened, the Donkey Tribe leader and the other six members would likely have been beaten to death by the enraged crowd.
The Donkey Tribe leader, helpless and terrified, sat on the ground, looking at these once-friendly people in confusion. He had not expected these kinds of people to suddenly turn against him.
“He was just momentarily confused, thinking of his former tribe. Give him one more chance, but if it happens again, there will be no forgiveness.”
Han Cheng waited quietly until the situation calmed down and then spoke to end the sudden upheaval.
Han Cheng was reluctant to kill the members of the Donkey Tribe. He planned to keep them and, after this situation ended, use them to form a trade team centered around them.
However, they still needed to be taught a lesson.
Unlike Shang and Gu, the former Donkey Tribe leader had not properly adjusted to his new position after joining the Green Sparrow Tribe. Therefore, it was necessary to use force to make him understand.
Although the incident appeared sudden, given the Donkey Tribe leader’s current behavior, similar issues would likely arise sooner or later.
The crowd dispersed as instructed, but their looks toward the Donkey Tribe leader remained hostile.
The Donkey Tribe members, who had a basic understanding of the situation, were also dissatisfied with their former leader’s actions. In their view, the affluent and influential tribe had already done enough for them. They not only took in these homeless people, provided them with food and shelter, and treated their injuries, but also risked their lives twice to fight the evil tribe.
Now that the situation had drastically changed, and the evil tribe was too powerful, the esteemed Divine Child wanted to wait and see. Yet, the former leader was still disappointed.
They could hardly imagine what their situation would be like without this wealthy and powerful tribe.
The life in this tribe was so comforting that they didn’t want to be driven out.
After the rest of the Green Sparrow Tribe members left, the former Donkey Tribe members also departed, and none of them spoke to the Donkey Tribe leader.
When the remaining Donkey Tribe members left, the leader was in complete shock.
He hadn’t expected that things would change so drastically in an instant.
Sitting there exhaustedly, he looked at the suddenly unfamiliar people and tribe, feeling his mind go blank.
During this time, no one came to check on him.
The terrified and confused former Donkey Tribe leader suddenly realized something: this was no longer his former tribe.
He was no longer a leader; his original tribe had been destroyed.
He, along with the surviving members of his tribe, had joined this new tribe and become part of it.
Everyone in this tribe was now his fellow tribesmen…
