Chapter 16: The Way of the Clan Wall
The confrontation between the two clans suddenly attracted a lot of attention.
The Chen clan headed by him is about thirty years old, and the blood qi on his body is compelling, and he has obviously awakened a long time ago.
Moreover, he gave Ouyang Ting the feeling that he was several levels more dangerous than facing that Chen Lin.
Just as Ouyang Ting looked at him without moving, the man also cast his gaze on him. After all, the aura released by the awakened bloodline is different, and it is easy to find.
"I'm Chen Feng, a member of the Chen family's second room. I don't know if it's an illusion, Ouyang Ting felt that there was no malice in his gaze when he looked at him.
"Ouyang, Ting. Ouyang Ting slowly took a step past Ouyang Ping and stood in front.
Ouyang Ping was stunned for a moment, and then his face couldn't help but show ecstasy, looking at Ouyang Ting's slowly released blood vein power, he said excitedly: "Xiao Ting, Xiao Ting, you!"
"Uncle Ping, Xiao Ting has awakened the bloodline, and we are now a clan. The young man who came with Ouyang Ting whispered.
"Okay, good! hahaha!" Ouyang Ping and the other veterans of the Ouyang clan shouted in ecstasy when they heard this.
Ouyang Ting stood still, he was afraid that this Chen clan would storm and hurt people.
After a long time, Chen Feng actually smiled.
"So young, congratulations to the Ouyang family. ”
Ouyang Ting was a little puzzled, the smile on Chen Feng's face didn't seem to be fake, could it be that they really didn't plan to retaliate?
"Thank you. Ouyang Ting smiled politely.
"Although the Ouyang clan is a clan, all of them are bloody men, and they are particularly brave in battle. Chen Feng glanced at those Ouyang clan veterans and said, "You have come to the Awakening Layer Clan, I will report to the commander, from today onwards, you no longer belong to my subordinates." ”
"General Xie Chen has taken care of us for so long. Hearing this, Ouyang Ping stepped forward and bowed in thanks.
"General Xie!" said the veteran clansmen behind him with the same sincerity.
Chen Feng smiled and nodded, turned around and led the newcomer who was also a little puzzled to leave.
Ouyang Ting's mind was a little confused, he didn't talk nonsense, but he just followed it.
There are many strange things on the border of this clan wall, as if I have just learned from the Chen family, but in the blink of an eye, it still faces the people of the Chen family, and it doesn't work... Let's ask Uncle Ping later.
The Ouyang clan's residence was located on top of the three-story residences, and because there were not many people in the clan, there were only four rooms.
Of course, there is a newly cleared room for the new people.
Everyone sat down in a room, Ouyang Ting counted them slightly, plus their new ten people, there were a total of forty-two people in the Ouyang clan here.
"I said that our qi and blood bodies, which had not moved for several years, suddenly loosened, so it is, so it is!" Ouyang Ping laughed heartily.
They are all clansmen, and they naturally have homesickness in this border battlefield all year round, and a group of people chatted together affectionately.
During the chat, Ouyang Ting had a deeper understanding of this clan wall.
They all talk about the frontier battlefield, but only now do he know that this so-called frontier battlefield does not refer to just one place. Rather, every part of the land that surrounds the Terran with the clan wall as the boundary is called the frontier battlefield.
With the Zhang clan as the center, the clan walls of the east, west, north and south all have a walled city similar to Longkou Pass.
Of course, those walled cities are densely packed, some are in the mountains, some are on the riverbed, and the scale is not as large as Longkou Pass.
But the pattern is the same, they all stand tightly against the clan wall!
The human race can thrive within the clan walls safely, relying on the blood of these generations of ethnic groups.
On the clan wall, there are too many bloody legends born, and similarly, countless ethnic bones have been buried.
This can be seen from the only thirty or so people in the Ouyang clan.
In the past, they would ask people from other ethnic groups who had the opportunity to leave to bring back the armor of the deceased to the tribe so that they could leave a memory for their families.
But in recent years, they haven't done that anymore.
Because, they are all walking here, and staying here to accompany the old brother is their request before they die.
Looking at the old leather armor hanging on the wall, Ouyang Ting was silent for a long time.
Not everyone can have the same good luck as Uncle Kun, and it is too difficult for the clansmen of the Qi and Blood Body to kill the brute beasts. And it's three...
Therefore, over time, this border battlefield has formed a strange phenomenon.
The existence with low cultivation wants to leave, but has no chance. And the existence above those awakened people, although it is obvious that many of them have killed enough, it is very rare to see anyone take the initiative to apply for the Hui clan.
"It turns out that you came here because of the Chen family. I said something was wrong. Ouyang Ping sighed and said.
Indeed, no matter how old Ouyang Ting is, or the conditions under which this clan has just been promoted, it stands to reason that he should not appear under the clan wall at this time.
For it was because of the scheming among the tribes.
"Uncle Ping, what about the Chen family..."Ouyang Ting asked with some concern. He wasn't worried about what he had, he was just afraid of causing trouble to the people.
"Haha, you don't have to worry about this. Ouyang Ping smiled: "This is the clan wall, when you come here, there are not so many twists and turns, you don't have to worry about their revenge at all." ”
"Why is this?" Ouyang Ting asked with some confusion, this was the second time he had heard something like this.
"Actually, it's nothing, just because there is an iron law here, but if it is found that there is infighting among the clans, or oppression and revenge. Ouyang Ping said in a deep voice: "The whole border clan, cut it!"
"Hiss!!" Ouyang Ting gasped, what a terrifying Tiantiao!
"So I said don't worry, besides, our border battlefield is full of hot-blooded men, and they are all comrades-in-arms on the wall, and they are all very harmonious. Ouyang Ping said with a smile: "As for General Chen, he is very kind on weekdays and takes good care of us." ”
Ouyang Ting nodded, and a trace of fear rose in his heart, if he didn't ask clearly and do something, it would really be a miserable person.
Saying that this Longkou Pass is really frightening, Ouyang Ting learned from the chat afterwards.
In this walled city, a hundred people set up a chief, a thousand people set up a general, five will be a unification, and five will be a great unification, that is, the position of that martial spirit.
In this way, there are more than 20,000 ethnic soldiers in this Zuo battalion alone!
Only half of the people in the camp are now, and the other half is now on duty at the top of the clan wall hundreds of feet above.
Although this place is special and is the first pass in the Southern Regions, it can still be roughly imagined how many people it will take to defend this Wanli clan wall!
Thinking of this, Ouyang Ting couldn't help but deeply sigh at how long the clan had to go, their Ouyang clan was too small, not to mention the clan, even if it was the last in the clan.
With such a terrifying number of clan soldiers, how many people did they have from the Ouyang clan...
Moreover, this conscription order is not issued once every five years, but is staggered by various ethnic groups, and new people come every year.
It seems that I still have to write a letter to Uncle Kun to tell him that there are so many bachelors in the clan, and this problem must be solved quickly!
Only when there are more people can there be great power.
For dinner, everyone ate on another open field behind the martial arts arena, and the way the team lined up to get food made Ouyang Ting feel novel.
The meal was very rich, and Uncle Ping said that it was to welcome Xinding, but he didn't eat so well on weekdays.
Each ethnic group surrounded the city in a big circle, talking and laughing and eating, and with these clansmen in this foreign land, the nostalgia that was entwined in Xinding's heart gradually faded.
"Knock, knock, knock... Woo~~~" was eating, and a heavy drum and trumpet suddenly sounded in the air above the clan wall.
Everyone stopped their movements and listened intently for a moment, and of course, the newcomer's heart was even more apprehensive.
When the two breaths after this drum sound passed, after confirming that no more drum sound came out, Ouyang Ping and the old men began to eat again.
"A drum, it's okay, eat and eat. Seeing that Ouyang Ting was a little distracted with the bowl, a big brother in the clan next to him touched him and smiled.
"No, it's okay?" Ouyang Ting's body was much stronger in all aspects after awakening his bloodline, and he could vaguely hear the shouting of killing coming from the clan wall.
"I guess those beasts outside are attacking again. Ouyang Ping puffed out his cheeks and chewed: "But the drum shows that it is not very serious, and we don't need to go up to help." In the future, if you get used to it, you should eat quickly! ”
Glancing around at the other ethnic groups in this square, it seemed that they were all eating quite well, and there was nothing unusual on their faces and still talking and laughing, it seemed that they were really making a fuss.
After eating, Ouyang Ting found that many people would look up from time to time.
"It seems to be quite intense. Ouyang Ping looked at the fire above, which was somewhat eye-catching in the night.
The top of the clan wall hundreds of zhang above, although it is high, the red light can still be seen clearly.
"Well, it seems that the shouting is louder than before. "Ouyang Ting's ear and eyesight are better to a higher level, so he naturally hears more realistically.
"I wish there were fewer deaths. Ouyang Ping sighed, turned around and walked to the steps.
When it's dark, it's time to rest, and when you've nourished enough spirits, it's their turn to go up the wall.
Dead, dead man? Ouyang Ting's heart was shocked.
It turns out that in Uncle Ping's eyes, it is not very serious, it will die! No, perhaps, listening to this tone, it will definitely die, but I hope it can be less.
Even though his mind is more mature than his peers, he can't help but feel a little apprehensive when he hears this.
Human life, under this clan wall, is it so light and light?
Looking at the expressions on the faces of Uncle Ping and the other clansmen, the truth that had no waves in his heart was not pretending, but he really didn't take it seriously.
Before he arrived, Uncle Ping and the others were only the lowest soldiers in this walled city.
Being able to make them take death so lightly can only show that the passage of life here has become the norm like drinking water and eating.
The night was getting darker, and the clan wall was too high, blocking Ouyang Ting's favorite oblique moon.
Lying on the bed, he couldn't sleep for a long time, it was too dark outside, only the torches above the walled city flickered from time to time.
The quieter the night, the clearer the shouting and killing sound that would still reach Ouyang Ting's ears.
Turning around, he noticed by the light of the fire coming from outside that there were ten people in the whole room, and everyone was looking at the roof in a daze.
"Sleep, recuperate, and go to the wall tomorrow morning. Ouyang Ting knew that they were all thinking about the drum beat just like himself.
"Xiao Ting, you say, are we going to die?" asked Ouyang Lin, who was next to his bed, softly.
Ouyang Ting was stunned for a moment, and responded in a low voice: "No." ”
He told himself in his heart that he would kill all these people, and he would bring back all that was left.
