Two days later, the farm was calm.Zhang Dingbian led several team members to explore deep into the jungle.No trace of outsider activity was found.They were convinced that those mercenaries who slipped through the net had already evacuated the farm.

Thanks to the efforts of the farm management, the mood of the workers is also relaxed, and they are no longer tense.

Tia's younger brother couldn't sleep well at night because of the fright.Li Sheng planned to send him and Tia back to the tribe first.If they stay here, maybe they will be harmed.

So Li Sheng and Thomas took Tia and the baby into the jungle from the edge of the hilly area one morning.

The baby was carried by Li Sheng on his chest in a large canvas bag.

Thomas opened the way ahead, and Li Sheng let Tia walk in the middle.

It may be the first time that the baby has been awake and walking a long distance. Along the way, the little hands outside the bag kept waving, babbling and babbling syllables that only he could understand.

Tia's long hair was tied into a ponytail today, with bangs on her forehead.She was wearing a denim outfit that Anthony bought yesterday, and a pair of calfskin boots under her feet. In addition, her face was different from that of ordinary aborigines. If she did not speak, she would not look like a girl from an aboriginal tribe at all.

These days, Tia and Chashi are having a good time.Chaxi satisfied her desire to be a good teacher. She taught Tia to speak Latin for a few days.

Speaking of which, Chaxi's memory is really good. Although she is only five years old, she has learned a lot from what Anthony taught her.Tia has been able to speak a few more words these days.Such as "yes, no, eat, sleep, bath..." Such everyday words.

Li Sheng felt pretty good about her initiative.Although indigenous people have their own way of life, every nation should preserve its own culture.But they can't close themselves off.A tribe with such a small population, closed itself off, will be eliminated one day.

Assimilating into this society may spoil their culture, but it may make them stronger and more capable of developing their own culture.

As for some people who said that the lives of the indigenous people should not be disturbed, Li Sheng wanted to spit on him when he heard that.That's typical sitting and talking without back pain.

No one is born to be poor.

Li Sheng would not take the initiative to seek to change the living habits of that tribe.If they still live like that, he won't bother them too much.The remaining forests can be preserved and allowed to live freely in them.

If they have plans to change, he is also willing to help.

Tia's performance these days, at least she personally intends to integrate into modern society.As long as she is willing, Li Sheng is willing to help her.

Because they had a specific destination, Li Sheng and Thomas didn't bring too many supplies, but only enough food for round-trip and necessary supplies for living in the jungle.What they brought was more sugar and salt, and some snacks.

Tia is also carrying a backpack, which contains the newly bought clothes for her and the snacks Li Sheng gave her during this time - she basically kept them.

They kept on going, and there was no danger on the way.When she got near the indigenous tribe, Tia started to walk faster, but she still looked back.This is leading the way.In fact, she just didn't know that Li Sheng and Thomas knew the exact location of her tribe long ago.

Li Sheng has been spreading energy field monitoring for more than 200 meters around him.

Their arrival has already attracted the attention of the tribe.Maybe Tia's change made the tribe's guards too unfamiliar to recognize her. They saw that Tia didn't come out.If they didn't see a dancing baby in the bag in Li Sheng's arms, maybe they would attack directly.

But since they didn't show obvious hostility, Li Sheng didn't say that there was an ambush nearby, but just smiled and said to Thomas, "Maybe there are sentries around them."

Thomas also nodded and said, "There should be. It's too quiet."

Yes, it was too quiet.In such a river valley, it should have been a place where birds concentrated, but they didn't hear any bird calls this time.

When they walked to a distance of more than 500 meters from Tia's tribe, the child in Li Sheng's arms suddenly fell silent, and then stretched out his little hands, yelling loudly.

It turned out that a man and a woman came out of the grass by the side of the path.The man is completely naked, and the woman is only wearing a short skirt made of unknown material that only blocks key parts.

Tia also shouted, and then rushed towards the two indigenous men and women.

Tia hugged the native woman and said something that Li Sheng and Thomas couldn't understand, and pointed at Li Sheng and said something.Seeing that her face flushed with excitement, she thought it was not a bad thing to say.

The people in the grass also seemed to recognize the changed Tia, and stood up one after another.They didn't surround Li Sheng and Thomas, but came to surround Tia, especially the children, and they talked with Tia with a smile.

Li Sheng didn't go over either, but first carefully carried the child out of the canvas bag.The native man who had been to the farm before walked over quickly to pick up the child, carefully looked at the grinning child for a while, and then kissed the child's face with ecstasy on his face.

The child cried because of his kiss, and looked back at Li Sheng, as if hoping that he could save him.

The woman also came over, looking at the child with concern.

The man reluctantly handed over the child to the woman.Then he took Li Sheng's hand with both hands, and his mouth was like a machine gun, not knowing what to say.In short, he talked a lot, and after he finished speaking, he came to give Li Sheng a hug.And then Thomas got the same treatment.

The aboriginal man expressed his thanks to the two, and then took the baby carefully from the woman's hand, raised his hands, and said a few words loudly to the fellows with a smile on his face.

The indigenous people cheered loudly "Jilolo" in response.

After a while, the native man held the baby in one hand, pointed at Li Sheng and Thomas with the other, and said something to his fellow tribe.After he finished speaking, the indigenous men took turns to hug the two of them.

Not to mention, being hugged by twenty or so naked men gave me goosebumps all over the floor.

But Thomas reminded him with a smile: "I think it's their friendship."

Whether it was or not, just in case, he couldn't refuse this kind of friendship.Any race or tribe has its own unique way of thinking. Maybe if you keep a straight face when the other party smiles, it will make the other party think that you are hostile to him.So he kept the same enthusiastic smile on his face as the other party.

Li Sheng and Thomas came to the tribe surrounded by crowds.

Both Li Sheng and Thomas knew about this place before.But this is the first time I've been there.

Instead of building thatched huts, the tribe built tree houses.No wonder there are still so many trees on their land.

A small river with turbulent water flowed by, which was different from what Li Sheng had seen last time.But now it is the rainy season, and the last time he saw the shallow flowing river was in the dry season.

The wooden houses are all concentrated on the river bank. The small skylights in the cut-out tree canopy are less than 20 meters long, and the length is only about 50 meters. Somewhere upstream, there is a bridge made of three large tree trunks.Perhaps this is for crossing the creek during the rainy season.

Li Sheng and Thomas discovered that the population of this tribe was larger than they thought.Including the elderly and children, there should be between 150 and 170 people.Li Sheng even saw two elderly aboriginal women who had completely lost their teeth.Looking at the age, I am afraid that he is in his eighties.And there are quite a few older aboriginal men, not necessarily in their [-]s or [-]s.

This should be considered a long life among the indigenous tribes.

The arrival of Li Sheng and Thomas was welcomed by everyone.Two elderly Aboriginal men served two bowls of cloudy white liquid in polished, smooth wooden bowls.

Li Sheng didn't know what it was, and felt a little nervous. He heard that some tribes would allow guests to eat food or drinks made of creepy things, but seeing Thomas chug it dry, he didn't hesitate any longer.

The natives saw both drink the liquid and cheered 'jilolo' a few times, then some older men directed and the women started to light a bonfire.Two men carried a large stone pot on the campfire, and poured water into it to boil.

Li Sheng looked at the big black stone pot - I don't know how long it has been used.He secretly compared the volume of the pot with the size of himself and Thomas, and breathed a sigh of relief.The pot couldn't hold either of them.

Then Li Sheng saw someone take out a dried beef hind leg.

Thomas saw it, and smiled at him in a low voice, "This should be the beef we airdropped last time."

Li Sheng saw some children squatting on the ground with their buttocks naked to watch the adults chop the beef, while others stood from a distance and watched them two strange strangers.He showed the most kind smile possible and waved to them, but these children ran away laughing.

At this time, Tia loosened her hair again, and changed back to their tribe's attire—topless, with a garland on her head, a garland around her neck that just covered her chest, and a pair of unknown fabrics on her lower body. In a short skirt, she twisted her fingers and walked to Li Sheng and sat down.

She was very close, which made Li Sheng feel uncomfortable.What's more, she reached out and hugged Li Sheng's arm.
