CHAPTER 584: CHAPTER 561: GRAND LEADER 79

Of course, at this moment Shuangshuang had no interest in enjoying the song. Although she couldn’t understand the lyrics and didn’t know what the meaning of the song was, Shuangshuang at least understood one thing: at the Red Flower Festival, regardless of gender, anyone singing is expressing pursuit of another person. Moreover, the person opposite was singing directly to her, making the meaning unmistakable.

Shuangshuang felt no joy in being pursued. To be honest, she hadn’t planned to find a partner or accept a pursuit at the Red Flower Festival. Now, suddenly being pursued by a man, Shuangshuang reacted timidly and fled in panic.

After barely escaping from the man who confessed, Shuangshuang leaned against a big tree full of red flowers, holding her chest with her hand, still feeling a little scared.

Just then, a large, bronze-colored hand grasping a bunch of extremely bright red flowers was presented to Shuangshuang.

When Shuangshuang looked up, she saw a handsome guy with bronze skin, wearing only a short beast skin skirt barely covering his butt. Ninety percent of his body was shamelessly exposed, standing in front of her.

Shuangshuang suddenly had a bad premonition. Sure enough, the handsome guy with ninety percent of his bronze skin exposed, offered the flowers to Shuangshuang and even winked at her.

Shuangshuang was suddenly covered in goosebumps. She felt that if she had fur, it would all be standing upright from her tail to the back of her head.

Though he was handsome and his wink was charming, this couldn’t stop the creepy feeling brought on by a tall man, nearly two meters high, winking at her.

Shuangshuang once again fled without courage, and along the way, she encountered countless people singing love songs to her, numerous others presenting flowers and winking, and even some recommending to bed with her for a fleeting romance.

Frightened, Shuangshuang dodged here and there, like a startled cat, unable to find peace even in her own tent.

Finally, driven by desperation, Shuangshuang ran out of the Red Flower Festival area in fright and hid on a large tree with lush branches, finally escaping the passionate men.

Lying on the wide tree branch that could serve as a bed, Shuangshuang couldn’t understand why the men who previously ignored her suddenly became so enthusiastic.

After pondering for a long time, Shuangshuang realized that the change in these men began after she brought back the Golden Python. Back then, Hagen had mentioned to others that the Golden Python was hunted entirely thanks to Shuangshuang.

Even though Shuangshuang repeatedly denied it, saying that without Hagen’s stone axe, she wouldn’t have easily found the opportunity to kill the Golden Python, and offering a portion of the python meat and skin to Hagen, he resolutely refused.

With Hagen as a witness, everyone naturally believed that Shuangshuang single-handedly accomplished the killing of the Golden Python, rendering her own denials useless.

Shuangshuang thought about it from different angles and felt that the reason the men went crazy pursuing her was absolutely because they were attracted by her martial power.

Thinking of this made Shuangshuang a bit upset. She hadn’t intended to find a partner at the Red Flower Festival. Shuangshuang just wanted the Yanhuang Tribe members to come and date, while she leisurely enjoyed the nearby scenery as if on a relaxing vacation.

Who would’ve thought that just one hunt would ruin her leisure time! The thought of facing countless men pursuing her after returning made Shuangshuang feel irritated.

To put it simply, what these men pursuing Shuangshuang valued was merely her combat power; they might not even truly like her. If that weren’t the case, why didn’t these men pursue her before she showcased her martial power?

Not to mention that Shuangshuang didn’t intend to find a man, even if she wanted to, she wouldn’t choose such men to spend her life with.

Feeling troubled, Shuangshuang unconsciously plucked a small cluster of newly grown leaves from the tree trunk under her, rolling them in her hand.

The leaf sap was abundant, and with a gentle rub by Shuangshuang, her hand was smeared with sticky juice. Her palm felt sticky and slippery, which instinctively made Shuangshuang feel a bit disgusted.

Although disgusted, Shuangshuang had nothing to wipe her hand with, so she instinctively thought of smearing the sticky juice onto the tree trunk. However, as soon as she lifted her hand, a refreshing fragrance wafted into her nostrils.

Shuangshuang sniffed, indeed a fragrant scent, very pleasant. She couldn’t resist rubbing her fingers, recalling the familiar slippery sensation.

Unable to resist, Shuangshuang untied a water-filled shell from her waist, poured a little on her hand, and rubbed her hands together.

Watching the rich foam in her palms and the dirt embedded deep in her hand creases, which couldn’t be washed away no matter how hard she scrubbed, Shuangshuang’s eyes grew brighter.

No mistake, the scent was indeed that of the soap tree. Coincidentally, the tree she climbed up to avoid people was a soap tree!

Speaking of dissatisfaction in this world, what bothers Shuangshuang first is the lack of toilet paper, making restroom use inconvenient. However, some softer leaves could replace toilet paper, making it less uncomfortable.

What truly makes Sister Shuangshuang uncomfortable is the absence of cleaning products. Simply washing one’s face with water really doesn’t solve certain dirt problems.

Despite daily bathing whenever the weather allowed, for many years Shuangshuang always felt as if she hadn’t bathed, because without cleaning products, it’s impossible to feel completely clean no matter how thoroughly she washed.

Now, with soap tree sap, everything is resolved! The soap tree is a natural cleaning and decontaminating plant, with no chemical additives, allowing safe use without causing any pollution.

Shuangshuang couldn’t resist excitedly climbing up and down the precious soap tree several times, inspecting it closely, and realizing that it looked nothing like the soap trees she knew, which explained why she hadn’t found a soap tree for so many years.

This soap tree bore many green fruits, each the size of a fist, densely packed because they were non-edible, receiving no attention despite the abundance of fruit.

If Shuangshuang hadn’t accidentally discovered this tree was a soap tree, with primitive people’s rough attitude towards hygiene issues, it could take hundreds of years without realizing it’s a soap tree.

The juice inside the soap tree fruits was evidently more abundant and thicker, yet its cleaning power was similarly effective as the juice from the tree leaves.
