Meet old people in a foreign land. The reaction of Hu Yi'er and the others was that there was finally a translator.

The old man cried out loudly after seeing the tiger head tattoos of Hu Yier and others.

He said that he was born in the Tiger Barbarians, and he was a member of the Hemu family, and he had also participated in hunting. When he was young, he encountered a flood and was washed into the Yangtze River, and he was lucky to hug a dead tree, and floated to the shore after a few days, and then went to this spotted tribe several times, and finally settled down, and now I don't know how many springs and autumns.

He thought that he would never be able to hear the local voice again in his life, but he didn't expect that he would be able to meet Hu Yi'er and these people when he was old.

The old man pulled Hu Yi'er and couldn't wait to ask about Hu Man's situation, asking how Ah Man is now, how he can hunt, how he is fishing and hunting, and so on. I heard that Hu Yi'er was the daughter of Qingmu, and asked the people of the Youban tribe to call Hu Yi'er loudly.

Hearing that the hunt had failed, he cried again. Hearing that Hu Man and Ji Lu were at odds, Hu Yi'er and others wanted to go to sea to find salt, and scolded Ji Lu again.

After chatting for a while, Hu Yi'er asked about the conflict with another tribe here, and the old man said: "That tribe is called the flower snake, and it is very sinister, they will train snakes, often drive snakes or kill and injure people from surrounding tribes with poisonous arrows, and eat the dead for fun." In the spring and autumn season, no less than two of our people have died at their hands. But they are sinister, and it is difficult for us to take revenge. ”

If the forest is there, they will tell them that the prey that is poisoned by snakes is said to be particularly delicious. In later generations, there was a dish made from a chicken bitten by a poisonous snake, which was said to be particularly delicious and highly sought after by the locals.

"Why is it so hard to take revenge?" Hu Yi'er looked at the old man, a little displeased.

The people of the tiger barbarian have their own respect, and they cannot be killed or injured by outsiders. Although the old man has been gone for decades, and the people here are not descendants of the tiger barbarian, she is still a little dissatisfied.

The old man shrunk his head and bent down to explain: "The snake of the flower snake is difficult to understand, and it covers the ground with poisonous stingers, so that outsiders cannot attack it, and it will be difficult for us to defeat them even if we unite with several surrounding tribes. The most treacherous thing is that they will flee to the south bank of the river in winter, so that we have no choice but to ......"

"Stinger?" Hu Yi'er quickly grasped the point.

The old man took a two- or three-centimeter-long wooden thorn and stuck it upside down on the ground, "That's it, there is snake venom on it." The road is known only to them, and it is extremely treacherous. ”

Hu Yi'er looked at it, raised her foot and stepped on the stinger.

The old man was frightened and hurried to stop Hu Yi'er. This thorn has no snake venom, but if it pierces the soles of the feet, it may not be good for ten days and half a month, why are young people so stupid now?

It's just that he is old and weak, so as soon as he stretched out his hand, Hu Yi'er had already stepped on it.

He couldn't stop it, so he continued to stretch out his hand to lift Hu Yi'er's feet and pull out the thorns, but he saw that Hu Yi'er's feet were very different, and there was something strange wrapped in them, and they looked like they were not skin or wood.

Hu Yi'er raised her foot, glanced at the soles of her shoes and said, "It's not broken." ”

Looking at the ground again, the ground was wet in spring and summer, and the wooden thorns were trampled into the mud. There was also a neat shoe print on the ground.

The old man looked over and found that the four of them were wearing the same shoes on their feet, and he couldn't help but get excited, and almost knelt down to look at the shoes of several people: "This is my pretty new animal skin?" I'm mighty! ”

Hu Yi'er said: "Where is this flower snake tribe?" Kill and wound my tiger barbarian, and bury it in the glacier. The four of us will destroy them. ”

The old man stopped, "It's getting late now, so it's better to go again tomorrow." And they have poisonous arrows, poisonous snakes, and there are only four of you, and it's too dangerous. ”

The young man of the Arimada tribe stood up and brandished his weapon, and the old man translated: "They said that they would like to go with you, and they are not afraid of death." ”

Hu Yi'er calmed down instead. If the four of them go, they will almost come and go like the wind, and they can quickly leave if they can't beat it, and I'm afraid that no one will stop them here. But with these young people, there are more problems to consider.

"Then we'll go overnight and tomorrow." Hu Yi'er said.

Then, she divided the work among her companions and began to get busy.

She asked Pi Jiaoer to go out with a few people with torches to look for herbs to repel snakes. Soon after, Pi Jiao'er brought in seven-leaf flowers, impatiens and other plants, and smashed some flint pieces into juice and mixed them with sap. These things are applied to the feet to have a better snake repellent effect.

She asked the two barbarians to take out bronze axes and machetes, and led men to chop wood and nail shields. The Jilin tribe had already begun to train on shield mounting, and they learned this quickly after going to see it. And they only need to make shields against stingers, and they don't have to be too elaborate.

When the people of the Youban tribe heard that these people were from the powerful Tiger Barbarians, they were originally extremely respectful, and when they saw the bronze sword and axe appear, they immediately admired the Tiger Barbarian tribe in the distance. The four people in front of him are also looking forward.

Hu Yi'er herself took the women to start rolling straw ropes and weaving straw shoes.

Barefoot is not enough to protect against an inverted stinger, and a thin layer or two of animal skin may not be effective. However, if you have a pair of straw sandals one centimeter thick, and then sew a layer of animal skin into the straw sandals, the resistance is much stronger.

Straw sandals are not difficult to weave, Hu Yi'er will do it in the morning. And now Tiger Man is also very popular this way of wearing animal skins sewn on the soles of straw shoes. The anti-slip effect is good, and it is also relatively soft.

After preparing for most of the night, everyone slept for a while, and when it was dawn, they were ready to go.

Almost all the men on the expedition had straw sandal shields and anti-snake herbs, and everyone was ready to set off with weapons in hand.

At this time, everyone found that four of the five people who were poisoned yesterday were still alive, and their confidence was greatly increased. Because eight out of ten who have been injured in the past will die. Now this survival rate is really amazing.

You don't have to die if you get snake venom, what are you afraid of? Kill.

After a small half-day attack, when Hu Yi'er took the spotted young man into the Flower Snake Tribe, the people of the Flower Snake Tribe, together with many snakes, basked in the warm sun, and they were unaware of these people who invaded the tribe. They were caught off guard.

They drove the snakes to resist, and found that the snakes, who were usually too fierce, were more timid when they saw the enemy than they were when they saw them, and they took a detour.

When they got a few weapons or blow arrows, they noticed that the people were all carrying shields. The shield was shoddy, but it couldn't shoot anything with a blow-gun, and even a spear and stone axe could withstand it for a while.

In addition, the four people led by him are extremely powerful, and the weapons in their hands are either thick and abnormally large, or extremely sharp, and no one is their enemy.

The people of the Flower Snake tribe were quickly defeated and fled.

The people of the Youban tribe hated them so much that they slashed and killed them all, young and old. After that, he pursued all the way to the edge of the Yangtze River.

Only one man from the Flower Snake tribe was left rowing a small canoe into the Yangtze River.

The man drew a section, and when he was out of range of the spear, he stopped, and said something demonstratively. If nothing else, it should be words like "I'll be back, you wait for death". Enraged, the people of the Banban tribe continued to throw weapons into the river, but they couldn't reach him. As for bows and arrows, the bows and arrows of the Banban tribe can only shoot small birds and beasts, and they can't shoot so far.

Hu Yi'er chased to the river, without saying a word, took down his horn bow, raised the angle a little, and shot an arrow.

The arrow feathers across the river, and an arrow nailed him to the center of his eyebrows.
