Chapter 218: End of the Recording, the Inuit’s Hospitality
Hearing the children’s shout, an adult man quickly walked out.
The man was not tall, but he was very muscular.
After seeing Bell’s group, the man immediately smiled happily and waved at them.
“Hi, friend!”
Seeing that the other party was so enthusiastic, the three of them quickly walked to the Inuit.
He had not seen it from afar, but now that they were closer, the man realized that Bell was so young.
“Oh? Little guy, why are you here?
This place is very dangerous. ”
The man thought that Bell had gone missing or something.
Bell smiled.
Just as he was about to explain, he saw the bear skin on Bell’s back.
...
“Oh my god, you guys killed a black bear?”
The man was shocked.
Seeing the other party like this, Bell smiled and patted the dagger at his waist.
“Yeah, it’s all thanks to it.”
Bell’s actions surprised the man even more.
He thought that the few of them had killed the black bear with guns and did not expect them to use daggers.
This was unbelievable.
The man looked at Bell and asked tentatively.
“Did you hunt this black bear together?”
Ped and the man looked at each other and quickly waved their hands.
“No, no, no. Bell completed the hunt alone.”
Ped and the man were adults after all. If the two of them ambushed a black bear, it was not impossible to hunt it.
The man thought that Ped and the thin man were Bell’s elders teaching him how to hunt.
Seeing that the other party seemed to have misunderstood, the other two quickly explained.
After knowing that Bell and the two were wilderness survivalists and that Bell had completed the hunt alone and was their mentor, the man’s worldview seemed to be affected.
“China is really a magical place.” In the end, the man sighed.
At the same time, he no longer treated Bell as a child.
The Inuit admired warriors, especially youths like Bell.
The man immediately gave a thumbs up.
“It is my honor to have you here, young warrior.
We will host you well tonight.”
The other party seemed extremely enthusiastic.
Bell scratched his head in embarrassment.
As for Ped and the thin man, they were looking forward to it.
They had not eaten anything decent for so many days. They could finally have a full meal today.
But the next second, the two of them suddenly remembered Bell’s words and couldn’t help but shiver.
Would the Inuit make them eat those dead sea birds?
The two of them were in a dilemma.
Bell seemed to see through their difficulties.
He smiled and said to the man.
“Uncle, thank you, but we have something urgent to do. I wonder if you can send us to Fairbanks? We will pay for it.”
Reaching the periphery of the Arctic Circle was not a success. They had to return to the reporting point.
With a car, the rest was much simpler.
But this uncle was too enthusiastic.
Although Bell wanted to refuse to stay here, the other party still forced them to stay the night.
They even threatened to serve them with their traditional food.
Hearing the words traditional food, the three of them turned green.
Although they had eaten insects and raw meat, it was a last resort. No one was willing to look for this thing for no reason.
Moreover, this Kiviak was much more lethal than live insects.
“Little friend, please stay here today. I will personally drive you to Fairbanks tomorrow.”
The man patted his chest.
Seeing the other party like this, Bell and the other two looked at each other and knew that they could not continue to refuse.
Although they were a little nervous, they still stayed.
After chatting for a while, Bell learned that the man’s name was Croutte. He lived with his wife and two children.
Croutte was very curious about Bell.
He kept asking Bell, wanting to know how he survived.
Bell also knew about the situation of the Inuit through chatting. They had been integrated into civilized society for a long time.
According to Croutte, he had not seen an igloo since he was born.
The main source of income for the family was to sell some traditional handicrafts or various fur products.
More and more people came to Fairbanks to travel in recent years.
Most people who came to travel would choose to bring some handicrafts back as a souvenir.
This also made their income much higher.
According to Croutte’s description, their annual income could reach 120,000 USD.
This was definitely not a low income.
Many of the audience in the live-stream were envious.
Even Bell did not expect Croutte to have such a high income.
The main reason was that these huts were too thrifty. Bell had thought that they would be very poor.
In the United States, a family with an annual income of more than 100,000 USD was definitely in the upper middle class.
While chatting, Bell asked Croutte why he chose to live here with such a high income?
Croutte said that although they had left the original living environment of the Inuit, they were still not used to life in the big city.
Therefore, most of the time, they followed the ancient tradition.
For example, they would also take a small kayak to hunt seals every winter.
Time passed quickly, and the sky gradually darkened. Croutte’s wife also brought the food to the dining table.
The three of them walked into the house again and looked at the decorations, making them a little dazed.
From the outside, this small hut looked ordinary, but when they entered it, it was not as dilapidated as they had imagined, but it was not particularly luxurious either.
But at night, when the lights lit up, Bell suddenly realized that this small room had a rich 1970s style that made him feel a little dazed.
Other than placing some home appliances that were different from the previous era, it could completely make people dream of the 1970s.
At the same time, Bell noticed the food on the table.
Looking at the food on the table, the three of them heaved a sigh of relief.
He did not serve a plate of kiviak like he had imagined.
There was more reindeer meat, snow rabbit meat, seal meat, and bear meat.
Most of the edible food was brought to the dining table.
It looked very appetizing.
