Chapter 2288: Chapter 2279 solving the problem
Translator: 549690339
After entering the small city, Jiang Fei realized that the humans of this era were indeed very backward. They lived in houses made of adobe. Most of them were still in the state of farming. Only a few people could practice, moreover, the conditions for practicing were very poor. After all, the spiritual energy in the raging flame plains was thin. It was really difficult to develop in such an environment.
“Sigh! Humans are really a race with many disasters…”Jiang Fei sighed.
“Yes…”second uncle nodded in agreement. Then, he seemed to have suddenly thought of something and asked Jiang Fei, “Are you guys also humans?”
“TSK! We are not humans!”Wu Rui’s words clearly revealed her disdain for humans.
“Neither am I!”Bi Wei shrugged. She had grown up in the mountains, so she did not know much about humans. Naturally, she did not discriminate against them.
“I see…”second uncle was shocked. If these three were not humans, what was their purpose in coming here? Why would these transformed beasts be so polite to the weak humans? What were they planning?
A series of questions flashed across second uncle’s mind. However, he did not dare to show it on his face. It could not be helped. Humans were too weak to fight against any of the beast races. Therefore, even if a child of the beast race came.., they had to receive them carefully. They were afraid that they would bring trouble to their own tribe.
“Since you are not humans, it is understandable that you are not afraid of the tidal turtle prawn tribe’s revenge. I was too talkative just now,”second uncle said to Jiang Fei and the others.
“Second uncle! The tide shrimps have been wiped out!”Qi Gan could not stand it anymore.
“What? ! Who Did It? !”Sure enough, second uncle was shocked by the news. However, after a moment, he came back to his senses and looked at Jiang Fei and the others with a shocked expression.
The weakest ones around were humans. However, the other ferocious beast races were not that strong. Although they could oppress humans as they pleased, they did not have the power to destroy each other. Now that the tide shrimps had been wiped out.., then, it must have been an external force that had intervened. The most obvious external force was Jiang Fei and the other two.
“That’s right! Those guys were all killed by me!”Bi Wei stood out with her little chest puffed out.
“Uh…”second uncle was speechless. With his Mahayana stage strength, he could not see through Jiang Fei and the other two. However, from her appearance, Bi Wei was undoubtedly the youngest one.
Jiang Fei looked like a young man in his twenties. Wu Rui also looked like she was in her late teens. Only Bi Wei looked like she was in her late teens. Therefore, second uncle naturally thought that Bi Wei was the weakest among the three.
If this weakest girl could destroy the tidal crawfish clan by herself, then how powerful were these three?
Second uncle was the strongest person in the human clan. He was only at the Mahayana stage. Therefore, he could not imagine how powerful Jiang Fei and the other two were.
“Don’t be afraid. We are not against humans. We are here to help you.”Jiang Fei knew what second uncle was thinking through mind reading.
“Yes! Yes! Yes!”Second uncle nodded. He did not know what else to do.
“By the way, is there only one small city nearby?”Jiang Fei asked.
“Our clear sky stronghold is a relatively small tribe. There are three other human tribes nearby. However, they are not large in scale. The large human cities are all deep in the blazing plains,”second uncle said.
“Sigh! They are already so weak, yet they are still so divided… it’s only right to be bullied!”Wu Rui sighed and said.
“Master, you’re wrong about us…”second uncle continued with a sad look on his face. “Why wouldn’t we want to live together? “However, we’re so weak that we can’t withstand the attacks of any of the ferocious beasts. Even if we were to gather together, it would still be the same. If we were to split up, if a tribe were to be attacked, it would only be the destruction of one tribe. The rest of the humans could still survive. However, if we were to gather together, we might be wiped out one day.”
“Sigh!”Jiang Fei shook his head. The humans of this era were too weak. The ferocious beasts did not attack them to snatch resources or hunt for food. They often attacked the humans because they were frustrated and came here to vent their anger, the humans had no choice but to live in different places.
“Other than that, there is another reason. We are too weak. We can not survive by hunting. Therefore, we can only plant some crops. Unfortunately, the weather is unpredictable. The crops that grow in the fields are often few and far between. We can only farm as much as possible to ensure a full stomach. If we live together, the land would not be enough to be distributed.” However, Jiang Fei could understand.
In this era, humans were not only backward in cultivation related things, but they were also backward in farming techniques. They relied almost entirely on the heavens to survive. The yield of grain per unit was very low. In order to fill their stomachs, the per capita land had to be large enough, therefore, they could only be divided into a few tribes and spread across the vast land.
“HMM… I might be able to help with this…”Jiang Fei said after thinking for a moment. Although his purpose for coming here was to help the humans, he did not want to change too much of the course of history, jiang Fei definitely could not pass on his alchemy skills to the current humans, nor could he pass on the perfect cultivation method to them.
That was because if that happened, the humans would quickly rise up and attract the attention of the murderers and the dragon race. When that happened, they might even be wiped out by them.
The humans were able to rise up in the end because of luck. The Dragon Race retired, and the ferocious beasts fought until their vitality was greatly damaged. Only then did the humans have the chance to rise up. If they rose up ahead of time, the dragon race would be victorious, the ferocious beasts had not lost any of their strength, so the humans had no chance at all.
Therefore, after weighing the pros and cons, Jiang Fei decided to teach the humans of this era some simple wood-type spells so that they could catalyze the growth of food. This way, although the humans were still not very strong.., at least, no one would freeze and starve to death because of the food problem.
“Sir! Are you willing to help us?”Second Uncle asked excitedly. If there were powerful beast races supporting the humans, their lives would be much better in the future.
“I can’t help you too much. If you want to get rid of the shackles of fate, you’ll have to rely more on yourself!”Jiang Fei said.
“Yes! I understand, sir!”Second uncle nodded.
“Go and gather as many human tribe leaders as you can. I’ll teach you some wood-type spells first. With these spells, you’ll at least have enough food,”Jiang Fei said his thoughts.
“Really? Sir! If that’s the case, I’m really grateful!”Second uncle immediately knelt down in front of Jiang Fei, nowadays, humans still relied on the weather to survive. If there was a drought or a flood, there would be a large number of crops that would not be harvested. As a result, countless humans would die of hunger. If what Jiang Fei said was true.., that would solve the greatest problem of humanity.
