Chapter 9: TreatingTranslator: Exodus Tales
Editor: Exodus Tales
But that did not happen. The ‘barbarians" surrounding him made way, and an old man walked out. His snowy white beard almost reached his waist and the wrinkles on his face could squeeze a mosquito to death. With a cane as support, he walked towards Bai Yang.
He seemed to have quite a high position among them, after all, the noise silenced right when he appeared.
Though he looked like he was about to pa.s.s away anytime soon, his eyes emitted a sense of energy and power, when he walked, he gave off quite a presence that had Bai Yang thinking that the old man would have no problem continue living for a decade or two.
Like his people, the old man started saying something to Bai Yang, but his words fell on deaf ears. Bai Yang"s mind went empty once again, and he thought, This is awkward, there is not even a single translator.
Seeing this, the old man turned towards the three men that brought Bai Yang here, who replied once or twice, or nodding and shaking with their head….
No matter what, Bai Yang could only stand there, there was nothing he could do apart from secretly looking around. To his disappointment and fear, if they were to get into a fight, Bai Yang wouldn"t even be able to defeat the children around. Even the meter tall child had more muscles than him….
Be it men or women, they were all tall and muscular, and that made him look just like a weak chicken among them.
But Bai Yang too, noticed something else, which was that the attire worn by these guys was very simple. Although simple was the nice way of putting it, in actuality, they barely had anything on them….
The children were basically naked, boy or girl. As for the adults, the men had naked torsos, with either an animal hide or ragged pants on their lower half body, and the women were also the same, but they had a poor quality cloth or a piece of animal hide, on top and bottom….
No wonder the kids here are all like calves, these women here have really huge “b.r.e.a.s.t.s”, that amount of milk will undoubtedly build a firm foundation for these kids!
Bai Yang blushed when he looked around secretly, especially when the ladies purposely stood up straight and showed him even more of their b.r.e.a.s.t.s….
A huge hand then landed on Bai Yang, he turned around and realized that it belonged to the second barbarian. Though there was no communication, through the expression he made, he managed to give Bai Yang a look that all men understood, s.e.xually….
“%&…¥%…¥*(&”
The bushy beard elder said something towards Bai Yang, his words still incomprehensible, but his actions told Bai Yang that he wanted Bai Yang to follow him.
After deciding that he would run whenever he deemed things were going out of hand, Bai Yang followed behind this old man.
The others surrounding them, however, started mumbling and pointed towards Bai Yang, only to have the old man slam his stick into the ground. He shouted at the others and they quickly dispersed from the scene.
Being the center of attention was really awful, especially to these guys who are all barbarians that can turn into carnivores anytime.
This village was built right in the jungle, surrounded by natural walls made with huge tree stumps. The village was at least 500 meters long in diameter, there were hundreds of large trees, so huge that more than ten men would be required to fully hug the tree.
At this point, Bai Yang had to acknowledge the intelligence displayed by these people, the houses were built on these trees. Not only did this help them avoid attacks from animals, but they were also protected from floods; with a river flowing right through the center of the village, it was definitely a lie if they said there was no flash flood at all.
Following behind the old man, Bai Yang arrived at the largest tree in the village and ascended the stairs built on the tree. The trio that brought Bai Yang back also followed behind.
Upon arriving at the top, Bai Yang surprisingly discovered that though the house was built at least 30 meters tall away from the ground, its size was considerably large. Unlike the tiny treehouse he expected, this house was really a house, spanning about a hundred square meters, consisting of three stories. From the balcony, Bai Yang noticed that the rooftop was made with some kind of gra.s.s unknown to earth.
After entering the house, what entered Bai Yang"s vision first was a living room similar to the main hall of a mountain stronghold; at the center of the room was a chair paved with tiger fur, and about 20 chairs at both left and right side of the hall.
Just when Bai Yang was wondering if this place was really a mountain stronghold, a few women efficiently removed the chairs at the sides and brought up some simple tables with some sort of futon made from another unknown material.
The old man signaled Bai Yang to take his seat, and the women showed up again, serving them some fruits that Bai Yang couldn"t recognize. They then served meat in wooden plates and there was a jar about the size of a pregnant lady"s stomach….
With an uncertain expression, Bai Yang looked at the food, Are they trying to treat me?
Bai Yang once heard that in some places, some minority ethnic groups were enthusiastic about hosting guests, perhaps this world was the same?
The fact was that Bai Yang was not far away from the truth. Barely any outsiders found their way into this village located in this jungle, besides, apart from trading their goods for some necessities, the villagers barely left the village. Thus, even though Bai Yang looked a little weird in their eyes, he was still the only guest this village had in a very long time.
Sitting in the hall, Bai Yang noticed that apart from himself, the trio and the elder, there were a few couple of others, all filled with ruthless auras, muscular and tall. Just like him, they too had a table placed before them, served with the same food and the same type of jar.
At the front, the leader-like old man smiled at Bai Yang and said some things that Bai Yang couldn"t understand. He then made a hand sign, expressing towards Bai Yang that he could start the feast.
Then Bai Yang saw some others already diving into their food, stuffing a huge chunk of meat into their mouths, intermittently taking in slices of fruits. They also opened the jar, which was filled with wine. With the jar in their hand, these men started drinking right from the jar and filled the hall with the aroma of freshly roasted meat and wine….
With a blurred mind, Bai Yang watched these guys as they feasted, he shouted in his heart about how straightforward and swift these guys were in eating, and he was also stunned. If they were going to eat, where was the bowl? The cutlery? And rice?
The other reason Bai Yang couldn"t bring himself to enjoy the food was that the serving size of the food was definitely not a problem to these guys but to him, or any earthling, there was a risk of getting food poisoning from food made from unknown sources.
While Bai Yang was observing these guys, he was also being observed, especially by the old man, he saw Bai Yang"s reactions and nodded with some kind of thought in his mind.
He said something towards the back of the hall, and a lady walked out, holding a wooden tray while walking towards Bai Yang.
When this lady appeared, Bai Yang lost control of his expression and unconsciously gulped.
Standing 170 cm tall, a curvaceous and sensuous body, even from the perspective of Earth, this lady was more than just a beauty. The slightly tanned skin tone surged with wildness, big eyes, tall nose, a well-shaped face, and a simple ponytail.
With that kind of perfect face, the attire of this lady gave off an even stronger impact, the well-developed chest was only covered by a cloth and it looked like the chest would tear right through the cloth anytime. The slim yet snowy white waist was filled with visual impact, a hide wrapped around the lower body, revealing her long fine legs… the image almost choked Bai Yang.
What"s going on…
Bai Yang"s thoughts were clouded even more.
To his further surprise, this lady walked straight up towards him, before kneeling before him, placed the tray with two wooden bowls, two pairs of chopsticks and a knife on it on the table.
No matter how he looked at it, the bowl and chopsticks were seemingly newly made….
First, with a stunning knife work that shocked Bai Yang, the lady sliced the roast meat into pieces, placing some of them into the bowl with a pair of chopsticks, opened up the jar and pouring some jade green wine into another bowl before staring right into Bai Yang"s eyes with her big eyes.
The clueless Bai Yang looked around and noticed that everyone was looking at him.
“What?” he was just way too clueless.
The old man signaled Bai Yang again, and this time, he finally understood that the old man wanted him to eat.
From the surrounding, to the bowls in front of him and this lady that smelled lightly sweet, Bai Yang was still clueless.
And his shock intensified as the lady grabbed onto the other pair of chopsticks, picked up a piece of meat and fed Bai Yang with a slightly unnatural move.
Bai Yang"s mind was already close to shutting down at this point and out of basic instinct, he ate the meat. However, it tasted like he did not know, and he also forgot about the problem regarding the safety of consuming these food with the body of an earthling.
He was being fed, and the one feeding him was a beauty, since when could Bai Yang experience such a thing?
Upon seeing Bai Yang swallowing the meat, the others started feasting again but for some reason, their actions were no longer as ruthlessly natural as they were, it felt like something had gotten into their mind.
“He really is someone from a huge background, he needs such unnecessary things just for a meal, and he can"t even eat by himself without being serviced by a lady!”
“It"s our village"s luck that someone like him is here, we must treat him nicely!”
“If he is attracted by Xiao Mao, it would be her luck!”
Mumbled the guys with the language Bai Yang couldn"t understand while they binged on the food.
