A Clash of Gods Chapter 1211: Ancient Elephant
The ugly man might be able to practice the Vajra dharma, which surprised Qi Ning, but he had long guessed the origin of the ugly man, so he knew that the ugly man had extraordinary powers and he was instantly relieved.
Is the ugly man actually a Buddhist disciple?
How could the disciples of Buddhism have that precious black big cloak in them?
The ugly man itself is a huge mystery, but it is difficult to solve at one and a half moments.
"This man was supposed to be a master, but he was unconscious and could not remember his martial arts." Ximen Wuhen slowly said: "The thin and dead camel is bigger than the horse, although he has problems with his mind, but he The martial arts are well-founded, and his talents are very different. Other people’s martial arts moves can be seen in an instant and even learned now. Looking at the rivers and lakes, there are only a handful of people who can have such patience."
Qining cautiously tried to ask: "Will the waiter know who he is?"
Ximen Wujian glanced at him and snorted, but then he was silent for a moment before he said: "The old man can't think of where he is really sacred." After that, he didn't say anything more.
The ugly man no longer uttered a voice this night. Qi Ning speculated that the ugly man’s previous howling might have been a demonstration to Simon without a trace.
In the early morning of the next day, Hongmen Road put away the tent, and the three went on their horses.
After walking like this for three days, the ugly man never showed up, but the air became thinner and thinner, it was difficult to breathe, and the terrain was getting higher and higher, and finally heard Hongmen Road to Ximen Road without trace : "Waiting, we have entered the boundaries of the ancient elephant kingdom. Walk like this. It takes at least half a month to reach Daxue Mountain. You need to find a few horses."
In fact, the land I have traveled in these days can be said to be deserted. I don’t see people at all, let alone horses.
There is a golden mountain and a silver mountain in the wild land, and it is difficult to change to a horse at this time.
The speed of the horse that came to transport things has also slowed down. Even if this horse is not a good horse, it has been exhausted for more than ten days. It is already a tired northwest horse, but it has enough endurance. It persisted to the present, but now that it has entered the plateau area, even Qining feels a little uncomfortable, not to mention this horse, obviously feeling uncomfortable.
Hong Mendao knows that even if people can persevere, but at the current speed, the horse will not fall for two days.
In addition, food and water have already been stretched. Although they have been supplemented before, they are consumed every day. The remaining food and water will last up to two or three days. If you can’t find a place to replenish your supplies, things will get more troublesome.
"You can see people in two more days of walking." Ximen looked up to the distance without a trace. The sky was high and far away, and there were towering peaks in the distant horizon. He raised his hand to know: "After that mountain, just Someone lives."
Although no figure was seen, a wolf pack attacked at night that night. Although the wolf pack was easily resolved, the wolf pack first attacked the already exhausted horse at the beginning. After being destroyed, the horse was already lying in the pool of blood.
As a result, even the camel's foot strength is not enough, and you can only discard other objects, leaving only water and dry food.
The mountain seems to be very close, but it’s really some way to go over it. It took a whole day before I reached the foot of the mountain. After a night of rest, I turned over the mountain early the next morning. This mountain is actually not high. But it was very steep. At dusk, after some time, I crossed the mountain and looked at it. I saw an endless wilderness. There were a lot of cattle and sheep on the wilderness. There were more than a dozen scattered tents.
Hongmen Road took a breath and said: "It should be no problem to buy a few horses from here."
After the three of them went down the mountain, they walked towards the tent and passed a group of sheep. They saw the two shepherds wearing thick robes. The robes had a completely different style from the Central Plains. The two shepherds were dark-skinned. The skin is rough, and there are many braids in the hair bun. When I saw the passing of Qi Ning, they all looked at the three with strange eyes.
"This is the border area of the ancient elephant kingdom." Ximen Wuhen finally said: "This is the Naqu sect, the ancient elephant kingdom set the sect, their sect is like our county, but each sect is better than ours. There are a lot of counties in the county. As far as the old man knows, there are a total of 98 ancient elephant kingdoms, and the territory is very vast, but the population is sparse and far from the liveliness of the Central Plains."
Qining thought Ximen Wuhen knew so well about the ancient elephant kingdom. It seems that this old guy might have been here.
The three of them walked towards a larger tent. The whistle heard suddenly sounded. Above the wilderness, the whistle was very loud. Qi Ning looked at it and saw an ancient elephant appear not far away Whistling, but a pair of eyes looked at this very alertly.
The whistle sounded, and soon I saw several tents nearby.
Qining and Hongmendao glanced at each other, and saw that the group of people were quickly gathering together. Soon, a few people came over here. Qining saw that the group of people was very old, the youngest. He also looks in his fifties, and he didn't even see a young man in the four quarters.
He was strange in his heart, but he saw an elder ancient elephant approaching head-on, with his arms across his chest, bowing slightly to this side, and then he said something to him, but he was talking about ancient elephants. Language, but Qi Ning couldn't understand what was being said, and he saw Hong Mendao's blank face. Obviously Hong Mendao also couldn't understand.
There is very little contact between the ancient elephant kingdom and the Central Plains region. Although there is trade between the two sides, mainly the traders in the northwest region have trade with the ancient elephant kingdom. Dachu is located in the south, but it has almost nothing to do with the ancient elephant kingdom. Contact, so there are very few people in Chu Kingdom who are proficient in the language of ancient elephants, and there are not many people in the ancient elephant kingdom who are proficient in the language of Central Plains.
Qining was thinking whether the two sides would use gestures to communicate, but when Ximen Wuqian stepped forward, he actually communicated with the elder of the ancient elephant in ancient elephant language.
Ximen Wuxiang’s ancient elephant language is not fluent, but from the old man’s expression, it can be seen that there is not much obstacle for the two parties to communicate in language.
Qining was terrified. Although he had guessed that Ximen Wuhen had been to the ancient elephant kingdom before, he did not expect that he could actually communicate with people in ancient elephant language. This is not just an ancient elephant. Country, but an extremely deep study of the ancient elephant country.
He didn’t believe that Ximen Wujian said he came to Daxueshan to ask for sins from the Sun King. At this time, he was more certain that Ximen Wuhen would bring himself to the ancient elephant country this time with a great purpose.
Ximen Wujian chatted with the old man for a moment, and then when he saw Ximen Wujian turned around and asked, "Lao Wu, did you have any silver on your body?"
Hong Mendao immediately took the silver bag and handed it over, but Ximen Wuzhen was very generous. He handed the silver bag to the old man. The old man immediately waved his hand and shook his head. The two sides said a few words. I took a few pieces of silver and sent them to the old man, and returned the rest to Hongmen Road.
Qining can see that Ximen Wuhen should have dealt with the old man, but the old man is very kind, and he did not accept all the money because of Ximen Wuhen’s generosity, but took away what he deserved.
"They can provide us with three horses, and then give us some food and water." Simon Wujian said: "It's getting late, we don't have to hurry to rush off here, he will rest for one night, he will give We prepare a certain tent for us to rest, and we can start our journey tomorrow morning."
Qining and Hongmen Road both gave a salute to the old man in the same manner as the old man saluted.
The tent provided by the old man is very spacious, not to mention three people, even if it accommodates seven or eight people, it’s easy, not only that, they also specially brought dinner, although it is not how rich, but the food is different from the Central Plains Features.
When the wine was full, I heard a voice from outside the account. All three came out of the tent. When I saw the ancient elephant old man waiting outside, when I saw three people out, the ancient elephant old man said something to Ximen Wuhen, Then he pointed not far away, but saw that there were three horses prepared there. This is a plateau horse, which is different from the northwest horse.
The first time Qi Ning saw a plateau horse, he couldn’t help but walk around and admire a horse. This led the three horses to an elder who was nearly sixty years old. He was interested to see Qi Ning Rao. Looking at the horses, I used the jerky Central Plains saying: "This is the best horse here. It is very fast and able to climb mountains!"
Qining said in surprise: "Will you speak the original language?"
"When I was young, I've been to your side." The man said: "I learned a little, but I'm not very familiar."
Qing Ning heard him speak the Central Plains and gave him a sense of intimacy, but at this time he saw that Ximen Wuhen and the elder elephant were not far away and were talking, so they asked the man, "You are doing Business went to Central Plains?"
The man nodded and said, "I went to the caravan when I was young, I've been to Ayutthaya, it's called...Yes, Xianyang, I've been to Xianyang, very big, many people!" Actions.
"Not bad, Xianyang." Qi Ning said with a laugh: "Xianyang is very big, you can go and see it again."
The man shook his head and said, "I'm old, I can't go, no team is gone...!" A very regretful expression appeared.
Qing Ning asked: "How do the elderly call it?"
"Samba!" The person said: "My name is Samba~IndoMTL.com~ Komori has become an old Samba, hahaha..."
Qining was extremely depressed these days. At this time, he heard the cheerful old man talking, and he felt a lot better. He smiled and said, "Samba has a good name. By the way, why can't you see the young people here? Older?"
Senba had a smile on his face, and when he heard Qi Ning's question, his expression suddenly dimmed, and even a trace of anger appeared in the eyebrows, but he didn't speak.
"Shouldn’t this be the case?" Qi Ning thought that he offended the other party and hurriedly said: "If I said something wrong, don't be surprised, don't be angry, I won't ask again."
"Palace!" Samba lowered his voice and pointed in the direction of the southwest: "There is a palace over there, young people go to repair the palace, it requires a lot of people, but also cattle and horses. Many cattle and horses are gone. To..." Close to Qi Ning's ear, whispered: "Women, young women, have to go to the palace, all gone!"
