Gasp! She's a Time Traveler Using Modern Tech to Improve Ancient Life-Chapter 679 - 675: Foreign Youth
Putting away the broken military electric baton, she held the nail gun in her hand and then Lin Wanwan observed the surroundings. Instead of heading directly to the camp, she went to the pastoral area nearby.
Because she saw the flock of sheep and the shepherd child, compared to the cunning and fierce adult Hu people, naturally, the young and innocent shepherd child was easier to approach.
Baya Naba was six years old this year, a Huihe girl with cat-like green eyes.
Most Huihe people have high noses, deep-set eyes, and brown pupils, rarely having green eyes.
The witch said that women with green eyes would bring conflict to the tribe, which was a bad omen. So in their tribe, if a girl like this appeared, she would be offered as a sacrifice to heaven.
Naba was not deemed as trouble and sacrificed because her brother was the bravest youth in the Red Sun Tribe of the nine-surname Huihe.
Her brother could fight against twenty, and when the witch led a group of Huihe youths to take her from her mother to sacrifice her, her brother, only eight years old, stood at the tent door, waving the Tang Blade in his hand, vowing to kill everyone who stepped forward.
He meant what he said, never speaking idly.
After injuring five people and even shaving off a bit of the witch’s hair, everyone understood his determination.
Anyway, it was just a green-eyed girl, and there was no need to lose the bravest group of youths in the tribe.
So, Naba survived.
Thanks to having a brother who could always procure food and milk, she lived longer and better than most of the children in the Red Sun Tribe.
In the Red Sun Tribe, the mortality rate of women and infants was very high.
For every ten infants, one or two mothers and three or four infants would die.
Growing from an infant to the age Naba was now was difficult, with less than half of the children born in spring living to that age.
At this moment, Naba saw a noblewoman dressed in expensive clothes walking toward her grazing land.
The woman’s face was covered with smooth silk, and she held a strange iron object in her hand.
Naba felt very strange because this woman seemed to have appeared here out of thin air.
Her body showed no signs of long travel, yet she seemed so unfamiliar, unlike anyone nearby.
"Little girl, are you herding alone here?" The woman reached out her hand, offering her a milk-white sphere.
She spoke in Great Tang official language.
Is she a Tang person?
Naba had heard her brother and mother talk about how the noblewomen from the city liked to wear Hu clothing and play polo.
Lin Wanwan squatted down a meter away from the girl, finding the green-eyed pretty girl exceptionally clean.
For Lin Wanwan, who had researched and knew that the Hu people on this land only bathed three times in their lives, the first girl she encountered through time travel challenged her understanding.
Judging by the cleanliness and the color of the fur robe on this girl, she was definitely not someone who only bathed once upon birth; she must bathe every two or three days.
Strange, was the information she read incorrect?
"Want some candy? It’s sweet and delicious."
She continued to offer the candy to the girl; this kind of thing is irresistible to children, as little Qingyu frequently sneaks to eat candy.
But the green-eyed girl in front of her cautiously stepped back a bit, not taking the candy nor responding. 𝕗𝚛𝚎𝚎𝐰𝗲𝗯𝗻𝚘𝚟𝚎𝗹.𝕔𝐨𝕞
"This is candy, very sweet and fragrant candy," Lin Wanwan repeated.
The little girl remained unmoved, merely watching Lin Wanwan with cautious eyes.
Could it be the little girl doesn’t understand her Great Tang official language?
This was highly possible, as it was clear this was a Hu tribe, and not understanding Great Tang official language was quite normal.
At this moment, the sheep suddenly parted, and a strikingly handsome foreign youth, at least 190 cm tall, with a red headscarf tied on his head, pants only reaching halfway up his legs, high nose, deep eyes, distinct features, narrow waist and broad shoulders, walked over.
His appearance was very appealing, like a statue, but his sharp gaze made him appear particularly fierce, clearly not someone easily dealt with, not soft or tender.
Lin Wanwan was startled; upon arrival, she met these two beautiful people, a handsome youth and a girl, was the average beauty level of Hu people so high?
"Jilib guwla..." The youth spoke a string of words Lin Wanwan could not understand.
Then, the green-eyed girl sitting on the hillside excitedly jumped up, hanging on the youth’s waist, her feet entwining his waist, and started speaking in a string of "jee-gee goo-gee" words.
As she spoke, she pointed at Lin Wanwan.
Though she could not understand, their eyes and body language clearly showed they were discussing her.
Lin Wanwan secretly raised her hand; if the formidable youth made any moves, she would not hesitate to strike first.
In the grassland tribe, there was no reason, only fists, and fists were the hard truth.
This was what the historical information told her, and Lu Shouyue explained it to her as well.
In this unfamiliar land, she wasn’t afraid of making the worst assumptions about others.
"Are you a Tang person? How did you appear within our tribe’s range?" The burly handsome youth suddenly spoke Great Tang official language.
Eh? Does he actually know how to speak Great Tang official language?
Lin Wanwan was somewhat surprised but promptly responded, "Hum, I am a Tang person. I went horseback riding and due to an accident frightened the horse, it ran away, and I had to walk. What tribe is this? What’s your name?"
"I am Baye Feng, this is the Red Sun Tribe, may I ask your esteemed name?" The handsome foreign youth’s expression remained unchanged, showing no sign whether he believed Lin Wanwan’s explanation.
This youth was very shrewd; this was Lin Wanwan’s judgment of him.
Comparing him to the group of privileged Tang children she had seen, this one was in no way inferior.
"I am Zhen Shiyin. You are the most valiant of the tribal youths I’ve seen. Shouldn’t be herding sheep here, do you want to see Chang’an? It’s filled with gold." Lin Wanwan blurted out her enticing words.
Baye Feng suddenly raised the corners of his mouth, his eyes flashing with intelligence while calmly appraising Lin Wanwan, "Shi Panduo said the most dangerous women in the world, the ones who travel the river and lake, are the prettiest liars with honeyed words. He wasn’t lying; you unexpectedly say the same thing as that smelly, tough old stone."
Lin Wanwan, caught lying, remained unfazed, smiling lightly, "I can sponsor you to bring your family to Chang’an, are you interested?"
Baye Feng did not speak, yet the little girl hanging on to him like an octopus, Baya Naba, whispered something into his ear.
"Brother, she said she can take us to see Chang’an! It’s Mother’s hometown!"
The little girl spoke lively Hu language, her warm breath in Baye Feng’s ears, causing him to frown and lean his head back, "Who taught you to speak to people like that?"
Naba laughed triumphantly, showing her gapped teeth, "It was Aunt Narisha! She said men love when women speak like this."
"Don’t learn this! Next time you talk like that, I’ll break your leg!"
The siblings’ father had passed away, and their mother had died two years ago; now they relied on each other.
Whenever Baye Feng traveled, he would entrust their neighbor Aunt Narisha to look after Naba. Every time he returned, he remembered to give her a fragrant roast marmot.
Baye Feng was not only the tallest and strongest in the tribe but also the best cook; all of this stemmed from his Han mother and the monk master Shi Panduo.
