Chapter 75 [The Fountain of Life]
Sure enough, instead of attacking, the tree people stepped back step by step with heavy and slow steps, but ... terribly, behind them, more trees were in the buzzing sound, putting the huge body Pulled out of the snow and turned into a living creature ...
Du Wei only felt creepy. Looking at the large forest in front of him, all the trees were pulling out their roots, shaking off the snow, and they seemed to be dull one by one. The puppet people surrounded them like ...
"God ... how much is this!" Dardanelle sighed.
"Genius knows! This is a forest! How big is the frozen forest? How many trees are there? One hundred thousand? Two hundred thousand? Damn ..." Du Wei cursed, "But why didn't they attack? Instead, they were surrounded. There, it seems like what are you waiting for ... "
Yes, these Treants are indeed waiting.
Soon, heavy footsteps like the stuffy thunder from far to near, Du Wei can feel the heavy vibration on the ground!
Herdly, among the large group of tree people, a road is separated, a behemoth, and slowly out of the tree people!
Du Wei ’s first impression is: This guy is so **** big!
If the other tree people are like giants ... the biggest guy is the giant among the giants!
From the perspective of Dewey, this thing is at least seven or eight floors tall! The torso of the whole body is black and hard, and the old bark is mottled, as if rusted! The branches and leaves on the body are extremely lush. When walking, the branches and leaves of the whole body make a rustling sound ...
Du Wei noticed that the largest tree-man ... in appearance, it is the closest to the shape of a "human"!
Because its root has been clearly divided into two branches, as if the two legs of a person, and the trunk on the body is clearly divided into a shape like the letter "Y" in English, the branches on both sides are as if Two big hands! The branch branching out above seems to be a finger.
Du Wei saw that in the "hand" of this big tree man, there was a huge round thing wrapped around dense vines on his fingers. From the shape ... it looks like one ...
Horn! ?
What surprises Du Wei even more is that there is a "face" on the trunk of this big tree!
The sharp bulge seems to be the nose, and there is a mouth opening horizontally under the nose. The bark on both sides of the mouth is extra thick, just like lips ...
All the other Shuren, as if afraid of this big guy, retreated behind it ... It seems that it may be the leader of the Shuren, Du Wei thought so.
"You ... we ..." The Shuren's leader made a sound that sounded thick and low, although it was jerky, but Du Wei could barely recognize that it was human language ...
Hell! Does it actually speak the common language of Roland?
"You ... why ... why ... why ... slaughter ... kill ... my ... companion ..." Every word of it echoed in the forest. With a long ending, the thick and deep voice had the smell of anger.
Du Wei bravely popped out of the rock, looked at the big guy, and shouted, "You first attacked us!"
"You ... were ... no ... have ... obeyed ... keep ... promise ... OK!" The leader of the Shuren was angry, and its crown was shaking: "evil ... eyes ... The violent ... jun, promise ... promise ... every, every ten years ... will ... allow ... we ... send someone ... into ... the canyon ... once! "
It's voice seems to be questioning: "Today! It is ... ten years ... of ... agreement day! Why ... you ... at the canyon ... slaughter ... my ... tribes! Is it ... evil-eyed tyrant, want to ... again ... provoke ... and ... we ... tree people ... war ...?
Ten years? Appointment day? Evil Eye Tyrant? war?
Du Wei immediately understood ... I'm afraid this is a misunderstanding.
Seeing that the leader of the largest treeman was about to be furious, Du Wei immediately stood upright and shouted vigorously: "Wait a minute! May I ask a question first?"
The leader of the Shuren looked at Du Wei.
Du Wei took a deep breath, and then tried to smile in the most kind voice: "Excuse me, the‘ evil eye tyrant 'you said is something? I do n’t know that thing. ”
When the remarks came out, the Shuren and the three humans were silent. Fortunately, those tree people have no eyes, otherwise it must be a wonderful "big eyes and small eyes" scene.
"You ... aren't ... the evil eye tyrant ...?"
"No. I have never heard of this name."
"Then ... you ... are ... what?"
Du Wei jumped out from behind the rock, opened his arms, looked up and down, raised a smile and said, "Are you still asking? We are human! Have you never seen humans?"
The leader of the Shuren was silent for a while. His thick legs took a few steps forward, then his huge body bent slightly, and the crown of the tree was pressed down. It seemed that he carefully looked at Du Wei for a while, then The leader of the Shuren straightened up again, and his tone took on a little joy:
"Oh! You ... are ... human! I ... remember ... human ... a long time ... a long time ago ... a ... human ... friend ... church ... me ... talk ..."
Du Wei breathed a sigh of relief, but although the Shuren leader was slow, he was not stupid. The joy in his voice turned into anger: "But ... you ... hurt ... mine ... ... comrades !!! "
"It was your companion who attacked us first." Dewey seemed to provoke these tree people to bully: "We stood here well, your companion appeared, and then we attacked us with stones."
"Hmm ..." The leader of the Shuren groaned for a while, as if thinking, then he exclaimed: "Well ... it's ... my ... companion ... first ..."
Due to his slow talk, Du Wei could not bear it, so he took the lead: "So, can we go now?"
"No ..." The Shuren leader was not good at words, but he soon found the most appropriate expression to express his meaning: "Compensation !!!"
Compensation?
Du Wei stunned ... compensation for the seventy or eighty Shuren who were broken up by Hussein? How to compensate? With gold coins? God, what's the use of Shuren for gold?
Are you going to die?
Fuck! How many trees are cut to death? How can there be such a truth in the world!
And, no matter what, Du Wei thinks he has his own reason. After all, the three of them stood here in good condition, it was these tree people who first threw stones themselves-those stones that were enough to smash people into flesh. Then, our own side just fought back ... Did we three humans just stand and let a group of trees die?
But obviously, it doesn't work to talk to this dull and stubborn treeman.
Du Wei thought for a moment, remembering this guy's words, he immediately had an idea.
"Dear Mr. Shuren, what is the evil-eyed tyrant you said just now? And ... I heard you mentioned ... war?"
...
Shuren is not a qualified narrator. Its slow and low voice is like the old-fashioned and disc-jumping player that Du Wei has seen in his previous life. A brief thing, it is enough. When it was said that the sun was going down, he barely made things clear.
Similar to Dewey's guess:
In this land, as the leader of the Shuren, the entire frozen forest is the domain of the Shuren ... This statement makes Dewey think it is bragging. Because Du Wei had been in this forest for many days, he had never seen a tree that could survive before.
Shuren boss-oh, by the way, this big, big guy introduced himself, it has a name that fits its identity: Wood. (Du Wei: WOOD ???)
In Wood ’s words, it was born and lived in this land, it is a standard, pure-blooded Shuren-as for the Shuren, is there any so-called "blood", Du Wei Never mind. But Wood ’s words revealed two messages that made Dewey interesting:
First of all, in fact, the large tree man ... The real Treant is just Wood. And Wood claimed that it was also the last tree-hulk on this land. As for the companions around him, they are all "companions" awakened by the horns that are full of tree vines.
Du Wei guessed that the so-called companion probably means "man".
That horn has a magical name, "Nature Horn", which Dewey thinks. This is the treasure passed down from generation to generation by the tree people. By blowing the horn, you can wake up the surrounding trees, making these trees "companions" waiting for their own command.
The inheritance of the Shuren people also surprised Du Wei. They have no gender distinction, and their heritage is also through the "horn of nature."
The general way is: "Companions" awakened by the natural horns, at the beginning, have no intelligence and self-awareness. They will simply act according to the real command line of the tree.
"But why did they attack us?" Du Wei questioned.
Old Wood ’s answer made Dewey feel sorry: because the evil evil eye tyrant has been mutilating this forest, all the trees hate that guy, and everyone thinks that the three humans standing at the mouth of the canyon are evil evil The tyrant's men ... Forgive these "tree companions" who have no IQ, they don't know how to distinguish between human beings.
The awakened "companions" didn't have much self-consciousness at the beginning, but they will slowly develop self-awareness with the growth of the years-and there is only a small chance, very few Only a small part of them can become self-aware, and at that time, they can become real "tree people" instead of "companions" in Wood's mouth.
In the forest originally, according to Wood, there are several real tree people. The number is not large, about three or five. The Shuren have always been a sparsely populated race-er, this statement makes Dewey feel helpless. There are trees everywhere, but they can be the real Shuren, but there are too few and too few. The vast majority can only stay in the unconscious "companion" class.
Wood is the oldest of the original three or five treemen. According to Old Wood, they live happily in this forest, and they have no natural enemies ... because whether it is Warcraft or something else, they will not pose a threat to them.
Until that day ...
This "beautiful and harmonious" (old Wood's original words) place has an evil and powerful existence. That guy is called "evil eye tyrant", and it arrogantly plunders the most of the tree people. Valuable wealth: this canyon!
Although this forest is infinitely vast, this small canyon is the most indispensable thing for the tree people!
Because ... in this valley, there is a treasure that is related to the tree people's ability to be passed down from generation to generation! It is a pity that the treasure was taken up by the evil evil eye tyrant!
Hatefully, when the angry tree people took the "comrades" to find this evil guy theory, the strength of this guy caused the tree people to lose a lot. The evil-eyed tyrant has powerful magical powers, and it even cruelly killed Wood's people! There were three or five real tree people, but now there is only one Wood. The other ones were killed by evil eye tyrants, and the evil evil eye tyrants also used their bodies to make their own palaces, which are in this canyon.
Angry Wood blew the horn of nature, and gathered a large number of companions to attack this canyon, but the power of a powerful evil eye tyrant cannot be defeated by the Shuren. That evil powerful existence can be driven by magic Warcraft around the canyon! There are even dead bodies and undead who crawled out of the ground! In the face of these monsters, Wood lost many, many "companions."
But fortunately, this is a forest. Wood can summon endless "companions", and evil-eyed tyrants are also wary. In the end, the two sides reluctantly reached an agreement: a truce.
Wood demanded the return of the canyon, but the evil eye tyrant did not agree. In the end, the agreement between the two parties was to allow the treeman to enter the canyon every ten years.
"What's in the canyon?" After hearing this story, Du Wei was most interested in this.
"The fountain of life ..." Old Wood replied.
