Chapter 105: Dedicate My Body To You

Xu Xiang looked at A Lu Zhe and said with a smile: "I don’t know why you are so sure."

A Lu Zhi pointed to his head and said, "Because of this. You have a lot of knowledge that we don’t have, and this knowledge is more powerful than anything else."

Seeing that Xu Xiang just smiled and said nothing, he hesitated for a while and said, "Then... how about I dedicate my body to you as a payment for our partnership?"

As soon as Xu Xiang heard his words, she gave him a strange look. He noticed the way she looked at him, and laughed.

"What is on your mind? I mean, I’m willing to work for you. Besides, I don’t like older women." He said with a teasing smile.

She gave him a blank look, and seriously said, "If you say it like that, it will make people misunderstood. You have to be more careful in the future. I also don’t like younger men."

He shrugged and asked, "So, do you think my offer is good enough for you?"

Crossing her arms, Xu Xiang thought about his proposal seriously. When she looked at him again, there was no expression on her face.

"Do you have the authority to make this decision?" She asked calmly.

A Lu Zhi raised his eyebrows, and said helplessly: "I think you underestimate me too much. In this Xiuluo tribe, my status is actually higher than my elder brothers. I am the official advisor for my father and the elders. Before they make any decisions, they need to ask me first, you know."

"Is that so?" Xu Xiang asked without interest.

Seeing her indifferent expression, A Lu Zhi frowned and asked, "Are you not interested in my offer?"

Shaking her head, she said, "No. I don’t want to live here all my life. This world is so vast, and I want to see it. Besides, people here don’t like outsiders, right? Then why should I stay here and be despised by them? It’s not like I’m a masochist or my brain is broken. I don’t owe you anything either."

After listening to Xu Xiang’s answer, A Lu Zhi seriously said, "Actually, I also want to take my people out of here. It’s just without food and water, they are reluctant to leave this place. But with your help, I’m sure we can get out of this place and find a better place for our new home."

She looked at him curiously and asked, "How are you so sure I have food and water? Why do you want to leave this place? As far as I know, people who live here, except for the Jia tribe, don’t want to have anything to do with the outside world at all."

He sighed sadly and said, "I believe you are the person who knows our soil and water conditions best. Only the Zhiwu tribe can get the Shennong’s blessing and grow crops in such land and waters. As for my Xiuluo tribe, apart from having stronger combat power and a profound knowledge in war strategy, we have nothing else. To be honest, my Xiuluo tribe is the poorest of the six ancient tribes. It’s harder than going to heaven to be able to eat enough for once."

"As for why I’m so sure you have food and water..." He smiled and pointed to the small thigh bag.

Xu Xiang pondered and listened silently to his words, and then remembered what A Lu Ge murmured when they returned from dinner on the nearest hill before. She lowered her eyes, as memories of the past flashed through her mind.

Those days when she was always starving and barely surviving now feel like a distant past. She was lucky, because when she was about to starve to death, she met her companions. They live and survive in the apocalyptic world together. But in the end, because of the betrayal of one of their best friends, they all died in the explosion, leaving nothing behind.

She came back from the memory and looked up at A Lu Zhi. Although this tall and thin young man is still young, the responsibilities on his shoulders are so heavy. He reminded her of herself in her previous two lives. Both of them carry countless lives on their backs.

Sensing her gaze, A Lu Zhi raised his head and met her gaze. It was as if he could see the real her for a second, but those sad and vulnerable eyes disappeared in the next second, and turned into a pair of calm and indifferent eyes. Looking at her expressionless face in front of him, he couldn’t help doubting his eyes.

After a long silence, Xu Xiang asked, "If I agree with your offer, are you really willing to be my subordinate?"

Hearing what she said, A Lu Zhi showed a bright smile on his face, nodded and said, "Of course. As long as you promise to lead my people to live a better life, I will be your slave for the rest of my life."

Xu Xiang raised her hand to stop his nonsense, and said, "Stop right there. I don’t want slaves, and I don’t want to be cursed for exploiting children."

Hearing her words, A Lu Zhi looked at his tall and strong body, frowned and said, "I am no longer a child. I am already fourteen years old, and I have reached the age of marriage."

Xu Xiang looked at his serious face, rubbed the center of her eyebrows, and thought: ’I really can’t adapt to the way of thinking of people in this world. How did you reach the marriageable age when you were only fourteen? Aren’t they too hasty? Then what about me? Am I an old woman now?’

A Lu Zhi didn’t know what she was thinking, and asked tentatively: "Then... Do you agree to help me?"

Xu Xiang looked at him, nodded, and said, "Mhm. But before that, I have to get rid of those elders first. I don’t want to live with people who always want to kill me and steal from me."

"No problem. As long as we follow my plan, I assure you, we can get rid of those elders as soon as possible. You can just sit down and watch the show later." He said confidently, while patting his chest.
