Chapter 56: Tribal Crisis
With Wu Rui's consent, Ah Niu quickly ran out and when he came back in again, there was an extra person by his side.
This man was over two meters tall, with thick eyebrows and big lips, his limbs were like a pillar, his appearance was fierce and intimidating, the kind that could scare children just by looking at him. His body also had a strong aura of violence, clearly a brutal person. What made Wu Rui frown even more was that this man's body also had a strong bloody smell, holding a sharp wooden stick in his hand, the tip stained with blood-red color, it was unknown whether it was animal blood or human blood, or maybe both.
Seeing Wu Rui, who was wearing a beautiful but unknown long gown, with skin as white as snow and an air of elegance, the newcomer's eyes widened in surprise, but after a moment of hesitation, he knelt down and bowed loudly, saying: "The giant snake pays respects to the immortal!"
The giant snake's voice was so loud that it shook the grass and the children couldn't help but cover their ears with their hands.
"Great Snake?" Wu Rui's mouth twitched, these primitive people were really interesting when it came to naming, all sorts of cows, snakes, flowers and the like, without even a surname. He smiled faintly and asked: "Please get up, what brings you to me?"
The giant snake suddenly stood up, and after a glance, said: "Today I came to pay homage, one is to see the true face of the immortal, and also to ask the immortal to move to our wetland plain, the humble people will definitely treat the immortal with higher courtesy and worship."
When the giant snake said this, Ah Niu's face finally turned black, and he felt that this bastard was here to steal his wall corner. He was both angry and furious, but in front of Wu Rui, he didn't dare say anything, and could only glare at the giant snake with a pair of angry cow eyes.
"Oh?" Wu Rui's smile was ambiguous, the ambition of this giant snake in front of him was enormous, compared to Ah Niu it was far beyond reach. He must have come this time not just because of his reputation, but probably because he felt that his own appearance threatened his dominance, so he hastily brought people to investigate.
"I don't have time to go to your tribe, go back!" Wu Rui directly refused.
Actually, Wu Rui really had the idea of going out, after all, now Rhinoceros Forest has been walked through by him, and treasures have been collected to the point where there is almost nothing left. However, he really didn't have time, the task has already proceeded to the seventh day, now only three days are left, he simply can't go anywhere else.
In addition, although this task did not mention any requirements, Wu Rui wanted to complete it better and avoid being cheated by the clinic again.
Wu Rui's refusal made the giant snake's face somewhat unaffable, but this person who was rumored to be a god was somewhat intimidating to him. For a moment, his face was somewhat gloomy and uncertain, and he hesitated without responding, nor did he leave.
On the contrary, Ah Niu was overjoyed and secretly thought that Wu Dafu had always stood on his side. However, seeing the giant snake still stunned in place, he coldly shouted: "Giant Snake Leader, Wu Dafu has already let you go, how dare you not leave?"
Who would have thought that the giant snake was somewhat afraid of Wu Rui, but not putting Ah Niu in his eyes. Now seeing a small tribal leader dare to sue himself, the anger in his heart burst out instantly. He didn't make a sound, but the wooden stick in his hand directly hit Ah Niu's head, the wind whistling loudly, and the force was very great.
"Hmph!" Wu Rui let out a cold snort, and a sharp blade suddenly appeared in the air, shooting straight towards the wooden stick that the giant snake was about to strike down.
"Crack!"
This wooden stick can be used as a weapon by the giant snake, it looks very solid, but under this faint edge, it was actually cut in half, the section on Ah Niu's side fell to the ground, and the giant snake only held half an inch.
The giant snake was startled, could it be that this young man was really a god? Originally, he still had doubts about Wu Rui's identity, after all, the legend of the gods and immortals had been widely spread, but no one had ever seen them before, so it was normal for the giant snake to have doubts.
However, even if he knew that Wu Rui was a fairy, the giant snake still felt unwilling in his heart. He had been born with divine power since childhood and had unparalleled wisdom. At a very young age, he became the tribal chief of the wetland plain with absolute martial arts, and as the years went by, his influence grew bigger and bigger, from the original hundreds of people to the current tens of thousands of people, and even formed a battle team, which was simply invincible!
It was just that at the time when he was ambitious to conquer the world, there were rumors that the leader of the Rhinoceros Forest tribe had encountered a god, and it was said to be some kind of Earth Emperor. This moved his heart to exterminate, because he did not want to see any figures threatening his own dominance exist, so he immediately led his troops to conquer.
But who would have thought that just as they were halfway there, a new message came from the scouts ahead: There is an immortal in Rhinoceros Forest.
With a probing thought, the giant snake was initially skeptical, but unexpectedly, the other party actually knew magic, and with just one thought, it broke its own weapon! In front of such a divine being, a feeling of powerlessness rose up in the giant snake's heart.
Seeing the giant snake daring to lay hands on itself, Ah Niu was both shocked and angry, but for a moment he didn't dare to act rashly. Because the giant snake's thousand-strong army was outside, and they were all elite soldiers. Plus his own tribesmen had no preparation whatsoever, once a fight broke out, it was unclear who would suffer greatly.
"Rhino Forest is a place I protect, no one is allowed to destroy it, you can leave!" Wu Rui said with an expressionless face, but his tone was not to be trifled with.
"You're a deity, aren't you? It's not good for you to interfere in the affairs of us mortals!" The giant snake asked in a low tone.
Ah Niu's face turned blue with rage, his eyes already flashing with fury.
"Goodness gracious?" Wu Rui was taken aback for a moment, then sneered and laughed: "Why can't gods intervene in mortal affairs?"
"Divine power is boundless, but once you intervene in mortal affairs, isn't it fair to us?" The giant snake, Hao Ran, began to reason with Wu Rui.
"Fair? Who told you that gods have to be fair?" Wu Rui's smile was ambiguous, his gaze seemed to be looking at ants.
"You..." The giant snake suddenly became speechless.
"Ah Niu, send the guest away!" Wu Rui didn't even give him a glance, directly giving the order to expel the guest. He wasn't some kind of god, who cares about being fair or not? This giant snake was indeed a tyrannical talent, but if he provoked Wu Rui, he would be killed without hesitation.
"Ah Niu had been holding back his temper, but upon hearing Wu Rui's words, he immediately stepped forward and shouted: 'Giant snake, don't you know when to stop? Do I need to call someone to throw you out?'"
"Hmph!" The giant snake let out a cold hum, its face gloomy as it turned and left, its eyes constantly revolving as if brewing something.
"I didn't expect there to be such a formidable figure on the planet of Ausen, could it be that Ausen is destined to take this path of cultivation?" Wu Rui muttered to himself, his face also somewhat gloomy and uncertain. If things were indeed as he thought, the future of the Rhinoceros Mountain Tribe was worrisome, and whether the knowledge he had imparted would be passed on was also a question.
For a moment, Wu Rui felt some worry in his heart. As half a teacher, seeing the things he taught heading towards extinction was an unacceptable thing. In addition, Wu Rui also worried about the assessment conditions for this task. If they couldn't pass the clinic's upgrade review, what punishment would there be?
The young grass beside Wu Rui saw him like this and couldn't help but ask, "Teacher, what are you thinking about? Are you afraid that the giant snake will harm the tribe?"
"Heh, alright then!" Wu Rui smiled and skipped over the question, then became serious and said: "Cao Tong, we are doctors, we should have a benevolent heart. Remember to try not to get involved in racial conflicts. You are now the doctor of the tribe, not a warrior. Even if one day the Rhinoceros Tribe goes to war with other tribes, you must protect yourself and pass on the medical knowledge that your teacher taught you. It's best to spread it far and wide, do you understand?"
The teacher's words were strange today, but Cao Tong still nodded heavily. He is still young now, although clever, this cleverness only lies in the aspect of herbs, and he is more naive than Wu Rui Xiaobai.
However, Wu Rui was still not at ease and thought for a moment before taking out a small jade bottle from the Minya Ring and handing it to Cao Tong, saying: "There is a Dan medicine inside, called Zhugji Dan, which can strengthen your strength by washing your tendons and strengthening your bones. However, remember that I do not want to see you use this strength for conquest, only for self-defense."
"Teacher, is this the Dan medicine you were talking about?" Cao Tong was overjoyed and opened the bottle to take a sniff. He was shocked at once. Of course, he didn't become complacent, but instead nodded heavily and said: "Teacher, I will definitely remember your teachings!"
"Hmm." Wu Rui nodded in satisfaction.
But before he could say anything else, Ah Niu returned with a gloomy expression and brought Wu Rui some bad news: "Doctor Wu, the giant snake and his tribe haven't left, they're waiting outside the village, it seems like they're planning to attack us as soon as reinforcements arrive."
