Arriving at the treehouse with the bucket of salt, Bai Yang noticed that the sun was only slowly rising on this side.

“This time difference…. It"s already noon back there….”

Though the sun was barely up, the village was already very lively, the windows were all opened, at the field under the tree houses, the young men were all in a formation and started training under the leaders.h.i.+p of the muscular men in front.

Training while bathing under the sun, refining their body and strengthening themselves, just how encouraging was this scene?

But after taking a few looks, Bai Yang lost interest right away as he realized that their training was not even as attractive as the military training they had to go through during high school.

With the bucket of salt in his hand, Bai Yang opened the door and he almost let out a scream; the girl who woke up sometime before this was standing right in front of his door and stared right into his eyes with her big eyes.

As if she did not cry yesterday night at all!

But because he did not understand the local culture here, he couldn"t understand the girl at all, hmmm, Bai Yang was strictly following the saying of “you"d better not try to guess a girl"s mind.”.

He greeted the girl right away, as for if she understood him or not, it was not in his area of responsibility.

The girl silently pouted and shown little interest at the bucket Bai Yang brought out from the supposedly empty room, she did not even feel something was not right!

Any ordinary person would be able to tell just how odd it was that Bai Yang took out a bucket from an empty room where there was no bucket previously!

With the bucket of salt, Bai Yang went to the kitchen and to the girl"s heartache that almost had her fainted, he threw that bowl-sized brown salt cube out of the window without hesitation….

“#￥…%%&&”

The girl rushed towards Bai Yang trying to stop him, but it was too late, and she began saying something that Bai Yang couldn"t understand.

But he did know what the girl was trying to do, so he grabbed onto her arms and stopped her from running out to pick the salt cube back.

After stopping her, Bai Yang washed the wooden bowl, dried it up and filled the bowl with the salt he brought.

“From now on, we will be using this,” said Bai Yang while pointing at the bowl of salt.

Hmmm, something felt odd, the “we” Bai Yang used seems more than just natural…..

The girl, however, did not understand. Under Bai Yang"s gestures, she reached out her hand and put a little bit of the salt into her mouth and her eyes popped out right away. Even though the saltiness was so strong that it was turning bitter, she still forced herself to hold back from spitting it out, so she had her index finger in her mouth while looking at Bai Yang in surprise.

Instantly, Bai Yang"s nose felt a little hot and he quickly turned his vision away before something awkward happened and went straight to the elder old man with the bucket of salt.

Perhaps old people often had sleep problems, the elder old man was sitting on a rattan rock chair, looking at the young men in training gently when Bai Yang found him.

The old man waved and smiled at Bai Yang"s arrival and said something to Bai Yang…..

And after another gesture, the old man finally understood that the white crystal powder in the bucket was salt, something Bai Yang brought to them as a token of appreciation for the villagers for helping him build his treehouse.

The old man"s reaction, on the other hand, was even more excited than the girl"x, he grabbed a pinch of salt and put it into his mouth. It was so salty that his eyes, nose, and mouth curled into one, his bones felt like they were a few pounds lighter right away and he charged out hurriedly….

Bai Yang, who had grown up in the city, knew little of just how important salt was to people who engaged in hard labor. Without salt, these men would gradually lose their strength, their mind would be clouded, their bones would deteriorate and their hair would turn white….

“Just how is their living standard? They"re so excited at just a little bit of salt!”

Bai Yang almost died of being too worried. If he really started reselling daily essentials here, he felt like he would be able to sc.r.a.pe the entire village empty!

The sun newly rose, its momentum large and huge, the mist like thin smoke in the air, the leaves in the forest waved along with the wind, the fresh air like mint, the children playing games with each other, the suns.h.i.+ne, forest, breezing wind, laughter, all formed a picture of serenity.

For Bai Yang who had no artistic talents, everything happening right here was just too comfortable. Right now, the bored young man was sitting on a ma.s.sive rock, wathing the young men showing off their muscles while training. He showed no sign of joining; with that tiny body of his that was even smaller than a child"s around here, he thought that he should save himself the embarra.s.sment.

And that was when Bai Yang noticed number three barbarian sneaking towards his side and sneakily “stealing” the stun baton away from him….

What is he trying to do?

The next thing he saw had him burst out laughing so hard that he almost fell from the rock.

Number three actually found an armor suit made from metal, wore it and started pus.h.i.+ng the stun baton to the armour….

Metal was an electrical conductor so number three s.h.i.+vered vigorously before falling down and the stun baton rolled far away….

Just how persistent are you trying to win against a stun baton? But your sense of adventure is admirable.

While sighing, Bai Yang walked towards the stun baton and retrieved it before returning back to the rock to watch the muscular men flexing.

Strangely, perhaps it was because of the acceptability of the villagers or their slow reaction, they showed little curiosity towards the missing wood materials, the salt he brought with him and other things like the stun baton; they acted like it was all natural and that was something Bai Yang couldn"t comprehend.

It"s such a nice time and I am sitting right here, wasting precious time, how despicable!

While eating the roasted meat fed to him by the gentle girl, Bai Yang thought and this thought intensified when the men scattered after the training.

Boredom was a type of sickness, it must be treated!

He must get himself something to do or he would die of boredom, which led to him trying to join the hunters as he saw them started preparing themselves to enter the forest.

He went to find for the trio, the three barbarians who brought him to the village. After all, he was much more familiar with them compared to the others.

After some gesture makings, he finally managed to convey that he wanted to tag along.

And the trio did not refuse.

Bai Yang turned around and his eyes widened in shock. The girl who was following him was now donned in hunting gear and followed behind him.

Leather armor, leather pants, leather boots, and leather wrist guards, all shown just how perfect her body was. Her attire looked a little roughly made but she effused a kind of wild aura while wearing it.

A dagger was sheathed on her boots, a whip hung around her waist and bow and quiver of arrows was on her back. There was also a broad sword in her hand; she was armed to the teeth!

Looking at the girl"s outfit, Bai Yang knew that even 10 of him was no match against this girl alone.

But he did not feel ashamed, instead, he felt proud as no matter how strong they were, it wouldn"t change the fact that they were very primitive and he felt superior to them….

And… let"s go? Bai Yang knew the forest was dangerous, but with these guys with extraordinary strength, he felt more than just secure!
