The few of them originally had some plans in mind, and they were reluctant to get together, intending to rush forward when the time came, to subdue Sa Shi first and then make other plans. However, as soon as they showed their heads, they were turned into quails one by one.
There was no way out. A dozen strong and tall hunters, holding sharp knives in their hands, stood in a row and stared at them unfriendlyly. Two big dogs half a person's height sat next to them.
It is indeed a scene that scares everyone.
Sa Shi kicked one of them who was not very honest and was looking around in annoyance. He looked young, about the same age as Feng, but his body was much smaller than Feng.
"Put the others aside first. I want to ask you if you were the one who put the poison in the lake."
Several people looked at each other awkwardly and nodded.
I don't know when Sa Shi got a straw rope in his hand and started swinging it on people's backs, causing them to scream in pain.
"Stop hitting me, stop hitting me!"
"Spare my life!"
"Stop hitting me, it's not poison! We're not trying to poison you to death!!"
Sa Shi walked up to the person who shouted this, "Isn't it poison?"
The man quickly shook his head and explained that they did spread burnt medicinal powder into the lake, but that powder would only make people's hands and feet numb and have difficulty moving for a day or two after taking it, and after the effect of the powder wore off, all would be fine.
It is used by their tribe to relieve pain for injured hunters.
"Then what are you trying to do?" Sa Shi didn't understand. After going through so much trouble just to let them taste the medicine?
A few of them looked at each other and stopped talking.
Sa Shi: Looks like we have to fight.
She began to pace back and forth again, swinging the straw rope in her hand.
"We...we just want to take advantage of your inability to move and get some salt." Someone said quickly, afraid that the thing in her hand would be thrown at them again.
The man felt more and more guilty as he spoke, "We don't have anything to exchange with you, so we just wanted to try this..."
Hearing this, Sa Shi felt like hitting someone again.
She took two deep breaths and turned to look at Xishi, "What should I do?"
If these people were the kind of ferocious and relentless "enemies", Sa Shi would not show mercy and would directly send them to eternal sleep. But these people, after causing such a trouble, just wanted some salt, which made her not know what to do.
Xishi handed her the water bottle hanging on his waist and asked her to drink some water and take a rest while he asked.
His questioning was quite detailed, but the squatting "quails" saw that the ferocious "female devil" just now listened to him so much, so they didn't dare to fool him at all. They answered whatever he asked and were extremely obedient.
They were just like the small tribe that came to exchange salt at the beginning. They had been exchanging salt in the salt mountains before. However, their tribe was small in number, and due to their poor physical conditions, most of them were relatively thin. But also because of this, they could walk on the cliffs like mountain goats, and with this skill, they could barely hunt some wild animals that ordinary tribes could not.
But it was only enough to keep ourselves fed and clothed, and there was really no more left to exchange for other things.
Before, after the animal trainers occupied the salt mountain, they also came to exchange salt, but not only did they fail to exchange any, they also suffered heavy losses. The few people who survived only escaped by relying on their rock climbing skills.
It was because they heard that the animal trainers had been killed that they wanted to try their luck again.
The tribe was already short of supplies, and several people died after being attacked by the beast trainer and the beasts, which made the already struggling tribe even worse.
There was not a bit of extra food or fur, so this was the only bad idea I could come up with.
Xi Shi was a little speechless. "The powder you guys sprinkled in the lake can't even move the fish. It would be much better if you could catch some fish and exchange them with us than what you have now."
The man who had just spoken to Xi Shi shrank his neck and said, "We didn't expect there were so many fish in the lake."
And... they did catch quite a bit, roasted it and had a big meal, and planned to dry the rest.
After eating the fish, they were worried that they would be caught by the people of the Taoli tribe because of their limited mobility, so they went down a cliff farther away, found a cave on the cliff to hide in, and hid there.
"This is not right? Aren't you planning to steal the salt?" Sa Shi was puzzled. Why did they hide after being drugged?
"There are too many of you, and you have dogs too. We can't get the salt." So after they caught the fish, they changed their original plan. They hid first, waited for a few days, and then took the dried fish and pretended that they knew nothing before exchanging them for salt.

Sa Ten:......
Other hunters: ...
Are these people stupid themselves or do they think others are stupid?
