Migration.
It became the greatest challenge facing the Moon Clan.
After all, the Moon Clan was a medium-sized tribe with as many as forty-three people, more numerous than the Yang Clan.
Even after five had died, they still had thirty-seven people.
Moreover, there were several elderly people in the Moon Clan.
If they were made to migrate,
it would also be quite a troublesome matter for the entire Hunting Team.
"Chief, the Moon Clan still has six elderly people. If we make them migrate with us, I'm afraid..." Yang Feng quickly learned of the Moon Clan's situation and hurried to Chief Yang Yu, an embarrassed look on his face.
If they abandoned those elderly people, the Moon Clan would probably cause considerable trouble for the entire group during the migration.
Perhaps...
His idea was very simple.
Either they abandoned the elderly,
or they executed them.
Those elderly people would affect the progress of the entire group.
"Bring them along." Yang Yu's expression was solemn as he said in a deep voice, "If they can't walk, then carry them."
Yang Feng's eyes widened at once, utterly horrified. "Chief, please think this through."
"Feng, let me ask you something."
"Are they members of our Yang Clan?"
Yang Yu looked at Yang Feng and asked softly.
Yang Feng fell silent. After thinking for a moment, he said, "The Moon Clan has chosen to submit to the Yang Clan, so naturally they are members of the Yang Clan."
"Good."
Yang Yu nodded. "If our clan migrated to the plains, would you abandon our elders?"
"That would be inappropriate."
Yang Feng immediately shook his head.
The elders had contributed to the tribe.
As their juniors, they naturally could not abandon them.
The chief had once said,
"A family with one old person is like a family with a treasure."
Although he still did not understand the reasoning behind it, he believed the chief's words.
"Then they are also elders of the tribe. Would you abandon them?"
Yang Yu pressed him.
"But they have never contributed to the tribe," Yang Feng said in a low voice.
"What you said is wrong."
Yang Yu shook his head in disappointment. "If Yan were here, he could certainly answer my question."
"After giving birth to their descendants and having them join our tribe, they have already contributed to our Yang Clan. Without their struggles, would those strong young people exist?"
"You! From now on, you need to use your head more and strive to become an elder and wise man of the clan."
"I understand now."
Hearing the chief explain everything so thoroughly, Yang Feng felt as if the clouds had parted and he could finally see the sky. The path before him suddenly seemed bright.
"Go. Pass on my words to the warriors of the Hunting Team."
"If we want the Moon Clan to quickly integrate into our Yang Clan, this migration may be the opportunity."
Yang Yu patted Yang Feng's shoulder in satisfaction.
"Yes!"
"I won't disappoint you, Chief."
Next,
after making some adjustments,
the members of the Moon Clan, led by the warriors of the Yang Clan's Hunting Team, hurried toward the Yang Clan's camp.
They did not abandon anyone from the Moon Clan. From the extremely old to the infants still needing to be fed, everyone was protected by the warriors of the Yang Clan's Hunting Team as they moved forward.
Whenever an elderly person could no longer walk along the mountain paths, a warrior of the Moon Clan carried them.
"Lie, let me do it!"
Yang Feng looked at the young man before him, who was carrying an old woman with sweat covering his forehead and seemed about to collapse. This was the same young man Yang Yu had subdued with a single move. Yang Feng stepped forward and spoke to him in the Moon Clan's language.
Hearing this, Lie raised his head and stared in surprise at the strong man whose arm he had once cut with a Stone Knife.
"Let me carry her. You rest for a while."
Yang Feng smiled and nodded.
Now that the other man was a member of his clan, he should treat him as one.
Seeing this,
Lie nodded slightly and lowered the old woman from his back.
Yang Feng hurriedly helped support the old woman. Once she was down, he immediately carried her on his back and continued toward the tribe.
Along the way,
Lie and Yang Feng conversed.
Why was the other man doing this?
Yang Feng did not hide anything. He told Lie whatever he could explain.
The other members of the tribe listened closely as well, and they began to have great hope and anticipation for their new tribe.
Men and women could form families with those they were attracted to, without the need for promiscuous breeding to produce offspring.
Yang Yu watched as the Hunting Team gradually got along with the people of the Moon Clan, satisfaction filling his eyes. This atmosphere was excellent, and it would also allow the newcomers to integrate into the tribe quickly.
Quite impressive.
Yang Feng was becoming more and more satisfactory in the way he handled things.
Three days later,
after a long journey,
they finally crossed the arduous, rugged mountain paths through the dense forest and arrived at the Yang Clan.
It was only a hundred li, yet it had taken them three full days.
This was enough to show that in this era, transportation truly depended on walking, while communication depended on shouting.
Of course, this was also because of the elderly and children, as well as the winding, rugged mountain roads.
That was why it had taken three days to travel a mere hundred li.
When the Moon Clan arrived at the Yang Clan with their entire families in tow, everyone in the tribe was stunned.
The difference between the Yang Clan and the Moon Clan had been revealed in an instant.
Their arrival also alarmed the members of the Yang Clan.
They rushed into the storehouse and brought out their weapons, standing ready for battle.
Even the children picked up their Bows and Arrows.
"Yu."
At that moment,
Lin Er saw Yang Yu walking among the crowd with an old man on his back. Her eyes lit up as she shouted, "Stop, stop! It's the chief! They're the warriors of the Hunting Team! Everyone, stand down."
After speaking, she hurriedly ran toward him.
A Da and A Er quickly followed behind Sister Lin Er, responsible for protecting her.
"Yu, y-you're all right, aren't you?"
Lin Er looked at the Hunting Team and Yang Yu, who had returned safely. Concern filled her eyes as her gaze constantly swept over him.
After Yang Yu lowered the old man from his back, he spun around in place and said, "Do I look injured to you?"
"As long as you're fine. As long as you're fine."
Hearing this, joy filled Lin Er's eyes as she looked at the elderly, women, children, and young adults who had crossed the mountains and traveled all the way to the tribe.
This group seemed even larger than their own tribe.
Had Yu and the others really won?
The families of the other Hunting Team warriors hurried out of the tribe as well.
For a moment,
the warriors of the Hunting Team seemed to have been injected with stimulants. One by one, they held their heads high, enjoying the gazes of their wives and children.
At that moment, they seemed to understand what family meant.
"From now on, I may be causing you some trouble."
Yang Yu also turned to look at the people of the Moon Clan behind him, solemnity in his eyes.
There were too many people in the Moon Clan.
Their numbers had far exceeded his expectations.
Originally, he had thought this would be a bloody battle, but no one had expected them to take the tribe so easily.
Now that he had brought them back, they had placed considerable pressure on the tribe.
"It's fine, it's fine."
