Chapter 8: Suspicion

In this way, another month has passed in the blink of an eye, and in this month, Ning Yuan can be said to have fought hard in order to improve his strength.

Every time he hunts, he rushes to the front, and no matter what beast he faces, he adopts a brutal and hard-hitting style.

As the saying goes, how can you walk by the river without getting your shoes wet. Ning Yuan was no exception, in the face of the fierce attacks of the beasts again and again, he was not able to completely dodge them every time, and the large and small scars on his body were the best proof of this.

Although he often missed, with his dexterity, he was never hit by a wild beast, and the scars on his body were nothing more than skin wounds to him, as long as he applied herbs in time, he would scar in two or three days.

As long as people are willing to work hard, they will be rewarded, and under Ning Yuan's crazy cultivation that is close to self-harm, his own strength has also been significantly improved.

Now, his strength, agility and endurance have grown to six stars, his intelligence and spirit have grown to five stars, his commander has grown to three stars, and his politics has grown to two stars.

With the continuous improvement of his strength, Ning Yuan's status in the tribe has also improved significantly, because of his savage and violent fighting style, many young warriors in the tribe worship him, and unconsciously, he also has his own small circle.

In the course of a month, the Grizzly Bear Tribe managed to annex three more small tribes, not only increasing the population by a large amount, but also gaining two very important crop resources.

These two crops are potatoes and carrots, and after obtaining the resources of these two crops, not only the food crisis of the grizzly tribe has been alleviated, but the tribal warriors also have two more delicious foods on the table.

After all, in the era when there was no salt, meat was really not very delicious, and eating meat was even more easy to get tired of.

Ning Yuan has gained a lot in this month's time, but there are always gains and losses in everything, and after he gained status and fans, he gradually aroused the suspicion of the patriarch Xiong Shan.

When attacking the first two tribes, Ning Yuan rushed forward first, and then knocked down the leader of the other party with three strikes and five divisions, leading the warriors of the grizzly tribe to an overwhelming victory.

In this era of advocating the strong, due to the growing strength shown by Ning Yuan, some young warriors in the tribe were completely impressed by his strength and began to look to him.

At this time, Ning Yuan's strong rise finally attracted the attention of the patriarch Xiong Shan.

If he was allowed to develop like this, Ning Yuan's prestige in the tribe would sooner or later surpass Xiong Shan, and as the head of the clan, this was something Xiong Shan could not tolerate, so he began to gradually isolate Ning Yuan and prevent him from participating in some important actions in the tribe.

During the first two annexation wars, Ning Yuan was out of the limelight, so in the third annexation war, Xiong Shan sent him and his henchmen elsewhere, and he himself led people to capture that tribe.

And this was just the beginning, in the subsequent hunting operations, Ning Yuan and his followers were also excluded.

Because of the potatoes and carrots, there is no longer a shortage of food in the tribe, so Xiong Shan no longer needs Ning Yuan to hunt wild beasts, and he is not given a chance to show off at all.

Ning Yuan is not a fool, he senses Xiong Shan's hostility towards him, but Xiong Shan is the head of the clan after all, so he can only act according to Xiong Shan's orders now, and take the group of warriors who are only his horse to explore every day.

In fact, Xiong Shan thought about killing Ning Yuan when he threatened his position.

But Ning Yuan, as a warrior of the tribe, has made a great contribution to the tribe, as long as he doesn't make a mistake, even if Xiong Shan is the head of the clan, he can't kill him casually.

Therefore, Xiong Shan could only retreat to the next best thing, making Ning Yuan and his gang of followers more and more marginalized in the tribe, so as to reduce Ning Yuan's prestige in the tribe.

Xiong Shan wanted Ning Yuan to die, and Ning Yuan now even wanted to kill Xiong Shan in his dreams.

However, Xiong Shan has the grace to promote him, and he is also the head of the clan, Ning Yuan must not do it himself if he wants to get the entire grizzly tribe, and he must not even make people suspect him, otherwise he will get a bad reputation for killing the lord, which is not conducive to his future development.

So the two of them got along with each other without incident, as long as it was an order issued by Xiong Shan, Ning Yuan would not hesitate to execute it directly, and would not give the other party a chance to seize the handle at all.

Of course, with Ning Yuan's character, he would not be so easily restrained, he was waiting for an opportunity, an opportunity that could kill Xiong Shan, and it would not make people suspect him.

The tribes of the Stone Age often fought with each other for food and territory, and it can be said that tribal warfare was the main theme of this era.

There is naked competition between tribes, and the end result is either one side withdraws on its own initiative, or one side is completely annexed by the other.

Conflicts between tribes can be said to be commonplace, so Ning Yuan didn't wait long, and this time came.

After annexing the three tribes, the Grizzly Bear tribe began to border the Silver Fox tribe, and the direct consequence of the two tribes bordering on each other was that some conflicts often broke out from time to time.

Since neither side was absolutely sure that they would annex each other at the beginning, they only sent some warriors to each other to test it.

And as the conflict continues to escalate, both sides have almost figured out the strength of the other side, and a full-scale war may break out at this time.

After Xiong Shan figured out the strength of the Silver Fox Tribe, he began to mobilize before the war, and this time he was absolutely sure of taking the Silver Fox Tribe, and this was on the premise of excluding those people in Ning Yuan.

After the pre-war mobilization, Xiongshan made an exception to give the soldiers who were going to participate in the war a half-day off, so that they could recharge their energy in the tribe for tomorrow's big battle.

After learning that his group was excluded from the list of participants, Ning Yuan took the initiative to find Xiong Shan, he knelt down on one knee in front of Xiong Shan, and pleaded eagerly:

"Patriarch, the Silver Fox Tribe is no smaller than the previous ones, and we should concentrate all our efforts to defeat it in one fell swoop, so please allow us to participate in tomorrow's battle."

"Why, without you, I wouldn't be able to take a small silver fox tribe? Except for you, are the other warriors of the tribe useless waste? ”

Ning Yuan's words made Xiong Shan very unhappy, so he didn't give Ning Yuan a good look.

"The subordinate doesn't mean that, the subordinate means."

"Okay, you don't need to say any more, I've already decided, you take your team to monitor the movements of the White Tiger Tribe tomorrow to prevent them from taking advantage of the situation, your task tomorrow will not be easy, go back and rest early."

Xiong Shan interrupted Ning Yuan's explanation and sent him back directly.

Ning Yuan returned to the tent with a depressed face, and after entering the tent and lowering the curtain, a mysterious smile appeared on his face.
