The next day, Dongfang was white, Gu Muhan was already standing in front of her, he hadn't slept all night, he didn't feel sleepy, his spirit was better than ever, and his thoughts were clearer than ever.

"The army sent by King Ira should be here today, I'll go out and arrange things outside, and wait to meet with their people, you can sleep for a while!" He sat on the edge of the bed, holding her wrist with his big hand, his mood was still surging, and to be honest, he was really reluctant to leave.

"I'll go with you!" Lan Wanyu pursed her red lips and stroking her fingers over the pocket on his chest.

"No way!" Gu Muhan resolutely disagreed, he had a lot to do today, and he was afraid that he would not be able to take care of her safety.

"Reason!" She asked, staring at him.

He pursed his lips, "The people in this place are still very conservative, you appear in front of the army, how they do things well, it's enough to see you!" ”

Lan Wanyu burst out laughing, "You still eat this kind of vinegar, but I know that it is Islam who are conservative, and the African people are not so particular!" ”

"Why not, first of all, don't say that you are the only woman we have here, and you are so beautiful, you don't think they are men?"

Gu Muhan became more and more evil the more he talked, but Lan Wanyu just didn't follow him, and rubbed with him for a long time, until a voice came from outside, "Sir, the king's army has arrived." ”

He is a member of the parabi rescue team and speaks broken English.

"Good!"

Gu Muhan responded, turned around and comforted Lan Wanyu a few words, she just didn't cooperate.

"Baby, are you obedient, didn't you say that it's hot outside, there are many mosquitoes, isn't it very comfortable for you to stay in the tent?" Gu Muhan's mouth was about to wear out, and she couldn't make her obedient after all the reasons were found, and she had a headache to death, and even the nicks between her eyebrows were wrung out.

"Besides, the army came to hand over to us the prisoners of the roof tile tribe, they are all outlaws, I am afraid that something will make you hurt in this matter, if you follow me, I will be distracted, if I am distracted, I will not be able to do good, then do you want me to ......"

Before he finished speaking, Lan Wanyu raised her hand and covered his mouth, "Don't say unlucky things, I'll just stay in the tent, but you have to promise me that if you encounter any emergencies, you must think about yourself and take care of our mother!" ”

In fact, he said this just to find some comfort for himself, he is the kind of person who takes the overall situation into account, if there is a case, how he will choose seems to have the answer in his previous actions.

"Okay, I promise you, baby, wait until I get back!" He hooked his lips and smiled, and after a loving kiss on her forehead, he lifted the curtain and hurried away.

The operation to hand over the roof tiles went smoothly, and the men who had been starving for three or four days, even if they were savage and aggressive on weekdays, were now physically exhausted due to lack of water and food, and when they were captured by the army, they had little ability to resist at all.

According to the custom of the Palabbis, the army pierced the captive tribal men through the shoulder blades with chains, and strung them like meat skewers, and when they wanted to walk on their feet, they tied a knot with chains that were sufficiently moving, and a steel needle was put between the two lips to stretch the lips to prevent them from talking to each other, but some liquid food could still flow through the cracks of the steel needles into the stomach, so as to ensure that these people would not be starved to death because of the torture.

Suddenly the valley was full of wailing, in addition to the screams of pain, there were also the cries of women and children.

That kind of picture is really bloody for people who are accustomed to seeing the beauty of the world, and many men or soldiers avoid this so-called "removing the evil demon for God" and carry out abusive acts under the slogan of salvation.

Lan Wanyu was also attracted out of the camp by these hoarse shouts, and just happened to see Edward shaking his head with thick eyebrows and deep eyebrows as he walked back, she stopped him and walked towards him.

"What's going on over there, there's a fight?" At this time, Lan Wanyu's questioning also showed her innocence.

Edward naturally understood that he would not let her know the truth, and nodded indifferently.

This action frightened Lan Wanyu, a flash of panic flashed in her big black and white eyes, and she said nervously, "What about Mu Han, why didn't he come back with you?" Did he go in a fight? ”

She said that, and without waiting for Edward's reply, she pulled her legs and rushed in the direction of the cave.

Edward hurriedly turned around and chased after her two steps, grabbed her wrist, and intercepted her. A smile appeared on his handsome face, "You are too imaginative, how can so many troops be there to fight when Gu is on the field, besides, this fight can't be fought, what is that gun for?" These are mobs, in a country where birds don't, it's a waste of food to keep them, they beg to die to fight with our people! ”

Lan Wanyu thought about it and felt that it was so reasonable, and she was so nervous that she was also frightened by Gu Muhan's temperament.

The two of them returned to the big tree at the door of the tent to take a dip, discussing the pristine scenery of this small island of Pomei, while waiting for them to solve the big problem.

Two hours later, a soldier from Parabi came running to clear the way, apparently preparing to move the prisoners and their families out, and Edward found an excuse to put Lan Wanyu back into the camp, so she didn't see the men who had been abused.

Edward stood at the door of the tent, staring at the men who had been "treated", all smeared with a white mucus that was abundant in the area to stop bleeding, leaving only a pair of eyes to see the way. The blood quickly stopped, and the previous bloody images seemed to have never happened, but they all looked weak and walked slowly, and it took hundreds of people almost an hour to walk through the tribal activity area.

Later, it was the women and children who were to be sent away, and their situation was to be reassigned to the men of other tribes as wives, regardless of age, and as for the boys, their fate could only be to become slaves bought by the patriarch of some rich tribe, and to work as sand diggers for them, and they would die of exhaustion.

The more civilized and backward the place, the more barbaric the attitude towards people, especially women and children, many times they have no autonomy at all, and can only be enslaved from birth to death.

Hearing the cry of the woman and child, Lan Wanyu finally couldn't help but run out.

This was also the first time she had seen such a primitive African tribal woman's dress, and she was a little embarrassed to see it.

Those women, with dark skin but strong figures, except for a pair of resentful eyes and two rows of white teeth to attract attention, were wearing only a skirt that covered the body, and said that it was a skirt, but it was only sewn from some powerful leaves to cover the body, and the upper body was naked, because the breasts were never maintained, and the most beautiful physical features of women hung down like papaya, and some old women, hunched backs, those two things fell to the stomach, shriveled and black, and dangled with the width of walking, There is no beauty at all.

Lan Wanyu is really embarrassed to keep staring at others, and glance at Edward beside him, he seems to be quite shy about such a picture, people always say that the countryside follows the customs, but this kind of "vulgarity" is really not something that everyone can handle calmly.

She had to look elsewhere, and stared at people's hair, and found that the women of this tribe could hardly see the little braids that were densely braided, and some of them were coiled up with small handfuls of metal, and the whole head was covered with those metal pieces, and even the earrings were those things; Some are

Seeing her curiosity, Edward asked her, "Do you think those things on their heads are pretty good?" ”

Lan Wanyu nodded, "But it looks strange, what is it?" ”

"It's all industrial waste that their men fished out of the sea!"

As soon as these words came out, Lan Wanyu's eyes widened in shock, why, the industrial garbage under modern civilization has actually become a treasure in their eyes?

"The outfits of these women made me think the same as you from the first time I saw them, to tell you the truth, I also quietly went to see the ornaments on the heads of several women, you see the woman wearing the yellow necklace, the things on her head are made of the iron lid of our soda, and I strung a few agate beads in front of me is a bit similar to the round ornaments on the heads of Tibetan women, and the one over there is made of coral salvaged from the bottom of the sea and grinded into small pieces of braided hair. Some old women didn't have so much energy to stir their hair into strips with mud, and from a distance, they thought it was red snakes crawling on their heads! ”

She nodded, stared at the women who seemed to look the same for a while, and suddenly frowned, "I think it's strange, the ornaments on their hands and feet and on their heads look very simple, but the necklace worn around the neck is very beautiful, you see those beads, the color is very bright, and a string is more than a dozen circles, and there are a lot of materials, but they all look flawless, how can there be so many beads on them, this place is rich in gemstones?" ”

"That's supposed to be coral!" Edward glanced casually and replied casually.

Before Lan Wanyu could take a closer look, she was attracted by a bunch of people walking in the distance, and the man who seemed to be elegant and noble among them was her husband.

Her eyes suddenly turned red, and she excitedly greeted him.

"Mu Han!"

When Gu Muhan heard her voice, he quickened his pace and walked up from the crowd, stood in front of her, looked at her smiling face, and turned his gaze to the roof women walking on the road, and asked with some concern, "Didn't you let you stay in the tent, why did you run out?" ”

He thought that she was seeing the men who were being tortured, and that kind of picture was too stimulating for women, so don't have nightmares at night.

Lan Wanyu scanned him up and down to make sure that he was not injured anywhere before quietly calming down, stretching out her hand to put her arm around him, and walking side by side to the camp with his footsteps.

"I came out when I heard crying, but I didn't expect to see so many women and children being taken away, how can I ...... Are they so rude to their captives' wives and children? They are all unarmed women and children, can't the king let them live? ”

He lowered his eyes, glanced at the faint sadness on her face, and knew that she couldn't hide things in her heart, and the first thing he asked was not what happened to the male captive, so he knew that she was not lying, and his thin lips hooked, and he smiled very innocently.

"It's a Palabi custom and we can't interfere. These men are gone, leaving these orphans and widows here, they can't survive for long, for the reproduction of the race, they still have their own missions! ”

Seeing her smile and nodded, his dark eyes deepened.

I don't know what kind of ideological realm Lan Wanyu heard from his words, but in order to protect the simple innocence in her heart, he is still willing to play these word games with her.
