Chapter 1269 Kunayu


    Due to the attack on the road, everyone became more cautious during the rest of the journey.


    The original 40-minute journey took a full hour and a half. Especially after Luke’s death, there was still a thorny problem that no one could take over his previous job of driving the sleigh. Fortunately, Zhang Heng stepped in at this time, he had been observing how Ole managed the sleigh with the dogs the whole time. Until now, there were no problems with the basic steering, eleration, and deceleration.


    Ole and Alicia had some doubts about this, but after Zhang Heng got the hang of it and practiced for five minutes, they were relieved. Therefore, Zhang Heng took Sachus and Ole took Luke’s body, alethea, on the other hand, had already brought Songjia with her.


    They didn’t encounter any more danger on the way. As they got closer to the tribe, Alethea’s worried heart gradually rxed. When she saw a short building on the Snowy ins.., her spirits werepletely rxed.


    “We’re home.”


    The tribe Alethea belonged to had more than 200 people. It was one of thergest tribes in the area. Although there had been people moving out to live in Nuuk or other towns on the ind over the years.., almost half of the people still stayed. However, most of them were old people. There were not many young people like Alethea.


    This was something that couldn’t be helped. Young people were always looking forward to the outside world. In fact, even Alicia spent most of her time in Nuuk. She studied there and worked there after graduation, however, she woulde back regrly to learn about shamans from kuna.


    Unlike what was recorded in the videos and books, the houses that Alicia’s tribe lived in were not made of ice. Instead, they were wooden houses that were simr to the ones in the town. They looked very sturdy, however, the colors were not as bright as the ones in the town. Some of the houses had snowmobiles beside them. Zhang Heng also saw grocery stores and even gas stations.


    It could be seen that modern civilization had a huge impact on the Inuit tribe on the ind. Even the people who stayed on the ind had already left the rough-and-ready lifestyle of the past. Their lifestyle had changed a lot.


    ording to Alessia and i, the current Inuit tribe was still very close to each other, but they would no longer raise their children together, regardless of their parents, as in the past, moreover, children would be sent to school to learn cultural knowledge, even if the result was that the young people who hade into contact with the colorful life outside chose to leave thisnd.


    However, Kuna had said that nothing could be forced. If the tribe really did not exist one day, it meant that everyone had lived the life they had chosen. There was nothing wrong with that. In fact, over the years, many small tribes had disbanded on their own, or they hadbined to form arge settlement, developing towards the town.


    Alethea’s tribe might also have such a day in the near future. However, for now, there were still many people who chose to stay here. After seeing Alethea return to the tribe.., the tribesmen all greeted her and i, who was also a frequent visitor here. Basically, everyone in the tribe knew who he was.


    In addition, they were also looking at Zhang Heng and Songjia with curiosity but no malice. Alicia’s tribe was not far from Nuke, and there were usually a few visitors, however, it was rare to see foreigners with yellow skin. As for Songjia, no matter where she went, she would receive a lot of attention from the opposite sex.


    However, they soon realized that there was one person missing. Luke, who had gone out to receive them earlier, was not in the group. When they saw the thing covered by the nket behind the sleigh, many of them realized something, their expressions also became sad.


    “Kuna is still waiting for you at her ce,”an elderly man walked over and said to Alicia.


    “Okay, we’ll be there right away.”


    Alicia brought Zhang Heng and the others to a small wooden house. This house was no different from the other houses in the tribe, but everyone who passed by would unconsciously lower their footsteps, a look of respect would appear on their faces.


    Alessia knocked on the door, and soon, a gentle voice came from inside. “Pleasee in.”


    Hearing that, Alessia pushed the door open and walked in. The others stayed outside for the time being, leaving room for the master and disciple to exchange greetings. Five minutester, the door of the wooden house opened again, and Alessia poked her head out, “That’s enough. Teacher has invited you in.”


    i had always been ridiculed as a boorish man by his twopanions, but he still had to follow the proper etiquette. Zhang Heng and Songjia walked in front, and he was thest to enter the room. He even closed the door behind him.


    When Zhang Heng entered the room, he saw an old man in his 60s and 70s sitting at a table. However, unlike what he had imagined, the old man was not wearing any strange traditional clothes, she was wearing some strange-looking jewelry. She was wearing a thick gray sweater on top and a pair of cotton pants on the bottom. She looked no different from an ordinary old woman.


    If it were not for Alicia standing beside her with a respectful expression, no one would believe that this old man was the most powerful shaman among the Inuit people.


    Zhang Heng and Songjia saluted the old man as soon as they entered the house. Thetter waved his hand and told them to take a seat at the table. Then, he stood up and took out a pot of freshly brewed coffee from the kitchen.


    “You guys came at the right time. The Brazilian coffee that I asked someone to buy for me from the Inte has finally arrived. Yves, who went to nuke to handle some business, brought it back for me. We can have a taste together, “Kuna said with a smile.


    Aliesia took out five teacups from the cab and took the pot of coffee from kuna. She poured it into the cup, and i took one. He looked very ttered and did not care about the heat, he drank it all in one gulp. Song Jia also picked up the cup and sipped. Zhang Heng was the only one at the table who did not move.


    Seeing this, song Jia put down the cup and whispered in a certain person’s ear, “This is Kuna’s coffee. Even if you don’t like it... you should at least drink some to show your respect.”


    In the end, before she could finish her words, Kuna Yu opened her mouth, “It’s okay. I can feel that he doesn’t have any malice toward me. He’s just a little more vignt. This ispletely different from his parents. I remember that his mother loves to smile, as if she’s not at all wary of this world. Even in the isted Inuit tribe, I rarely see such a pure smile.”
