Chronicles of Primordial Wars Chapter 356: Strange old man
After leaving Maka Tribe, Shao Xuan also saw people from other tribes who just went out, but they did not go with them together. Those people were very guarded against Shao Xuan, probably because they were carrying some goods and worried that Shao Xuan would snatch.
Shao Xuan also has a long journey experience, knowing that the team will repel when encountering strangers halfway, so I didn't make it up, just asked about the distance of twenty.
The other party didn't mean to see Shao Xuan. After reluctantly answering two questions of Shao Xuan, they hurried away.
Shao Xuan only asked about the geographical form of the surrounding area, but the answer was too brief, and Shao Xuan could only combine the information heard from Maka Tribe to figure out where to go.
Here, there are tribes and Slave Master jurisdictions, but the tribe and Slave Master do not have too many contradictions relationship, and will not always conflict as the sea side. Many tribe people often even go to the cities under the jurisdiction of Slave Master for trading, which is very common for them. For example, Maka Tribe, there will often be long-distance teams to the nearest city, in exchange for cloth, copper weapons and other things.
However, Shao Xuan doesn't plan to go to Slave Master's territory. What he wants to know now is, is the other half of Flaming Horn Tribe here?
If the preferences of Flaming Horn people have not changed, they will probably be more biased towards mountainous forests, especially where there are many Ominous Beast. When there are more people, wild beast and Ominous Beast will naturally decrease. Therefore, Shao Xuan intends to go to a place with few people to try their luck.
After inquiring about the surrounding geomorphology, Shao Xuan tied the rope once more, determined an orientation, and passed over there. He just showed the general direction, and didn't figure out the distance, so he could only go straight there.
In the beginning, I could see some people who traveled every two days, but gradually, I saw fewer people, the land became desolate, and the surrounding forests were wide although, but I do n’t know if it was due to qualitative. , The growing plants are not lush, and there are not many thick trees.
Shao Xuan looked up, and there were slightly desolate mountains cascading around. He didn't change the course, he planned to pass from the valley, listened carefully to the surrounding movement, except for some birds and small wild beast calls. No other dangerous sounds were heard. The calls of the birds and beasts were relatively peaceful and there was no fear. It should be relatively safe here.
Sometimes a stream flows through the valley. Shao Xuan has been walking along the route and direction. When he was walking to a stream, he saw someone lying on the water's edge, and his head was resting beside the water. At that time, he rushed to the other person's face, his gray hair was scattered in the water, and swayed along the stream.
If the other person is out of gas, Shao Xuan will not take more control, but the person still has life Aura, but it is only a little weak.
In the past, Shao Xuan found that this is a very old man with a lot of wrinkles on his face, which is older than it looks from the back. There is no serious trauma. Except for the fracture of the right arm, the rest of the body is fine.
This man is in grey cloth, I do n’t know how much he has experienced. The clothes are tattered, only a little better than when Shao Xuan first arrived. There are several small copper qualitative knives with different weapons, but the shapes of the knives are different, but they are all very small. The shape does not seem to be used as a hidden weapon. I don't know what it does. There is still a bag wrapped around his waist. The bag is made of animal skin. Looking at the leather, there are also Ominous Beast grades. The leather of ordinary wild beast will not be so strong.
Looking carefully, Shao Xuan carefully turned the person over and moved away from the stream.
You ca n’t wake up, you ca n’t wake up, and you do n’t move. You ca n’t wake up. Shao Xuan looks down at beast skin bag on the waist of the other person, reaches out and pokes. When the other party was lying on the edge of the stream, his uninjured left arm was always there, and even when he turned it over, his arm did not leave. This is a subconscious behavior, which shows that for this person, beast skin bag, It is very important.
When Shao Xuan reached out and poked at beast skin bag, the other party did not wake up, but the muscles on his face moved.
Poke again, the other person opens his eyes sharply, with bloodshot eyes with defense and murderous aura, his elbow propped to the ground, and rolled quickly away from Shao Xuan. Then, he bumped into a large On the stone, the sound of Shao Xuan sounded painful for him. Why be so excited.
Fortunately, the person did n’t feel dizzy, and after a few "hums" of pain, the person wanted to reach out and touch the injured forehead, but the right arm was injured, the left arm was protected by beast skin bag, and the left arm was moved. After thinking about it, I put it back in place and continued to protect the beast skin bag, letting the blood on my forehead shed my eyes on Shao Xuan, for fear that Shao Xuan came to grab something.
"Relax, I won't grab it." Shao Xuan said when he saw him like this.
I'm so old, I don't know why I fainted beside the stream, just woke up and hit the stone again, it's strange that I can feel good.
The other person's spirit is slightly relaxed, but the defense is still intact.
"You want to rob me early, wait till now? Besides, even if I want to rob now, can you stop me?" Shao Xuan said.
Oh, too. The gray-haired old man's eyes had taken off the defense. When he woke up, murderous aura also receded, and his head was still a little dizzy. He slowly moved his nose and looked at Shao Xuan: "Are you carrying meat?"
Interrogative sentences, but very positive.
Shao Xuan reached out and took a piece of jerky from the bag and tossed it over, asking, "How did you faint here?"
The old man hurriedly caught the jerky thrown by Shao Xuan, smelled it, and looked a little bit disgusted, but his movement was not slow. He took a quick bite to eat, and replied Shao Xuan inarticulately: "Hungry."
I thought it was poisoning or some other reason, but did not expect that the answer turned out to be hungry.
After eating the jerky that Shao Xuan gave quickly, the old man looked at Shao Xuan again: "Are there any?"
Shao Xuan took out a piece again, but did not pass it immediately, but said: "You answer me a few questions first, and I will give you the meat in my hand."
The old man frowned, not speaking, and seemed unhappy.
Shao Xuan didn't care, raising his hand pointed and asked, "Walking there, how long can I see the dense forest?"
After hearing the question from Shao Xuan, the old man frowned and thought it was the problem.
"I don't know. I haven't been there before. I'm here for the first time. However, as far as I know, you won't be able to see the dense woods for at least two days. They are all the same here." The old man replied, "This is a famous wasteland, there is no tribe, and you will not see anyone else even if you walk in it for another two days."
Pass the meat to the old man. Shao Xuan washed his face by the stream and continued on his way. This old man is so energetic after eating meat that he can go without Shao Xuan.
Only, Shao Xuan didn't take a few steps, and the old man's voice came from behind.
"Ah, wait a minute! That little brother!"
It was just like a thief-like defense, but now the "little brother" is calling affectionately. Generally speaking, when such an intimacy is near, there must be other intentions.
Shao Xuan turned around and asked what was happening to the other person.
The old man got up from the ground, looked around, his eyes stayed in one place, and he pointed happily over there: "There, just the grass with white lines, you pick me down."
Listen to this tone, a commanding posture. Look at the place where the old man pointed. On the mountain wall almost 90 degrees vertically above the ground, at least 30 meters above the ground, there are several half-armed grasses with white stripes growing there.
Shao Xuan originally wanted to turn around and leave, but he did n’t seem to realize that his tone was wrong. Shao Xuan thought about it and waved his head. Forget it, do n’t care about the elderly, and he also wanted to know What does the white-grained grass do?
It's always good to know more in such a strange place.
