Chapter 78 Those years
In the northern suburbs of Huadu, next to a swamp that used to be a captive bison, a small field was fenced off by slaves for days.
Hundreds of Yan residents gathered around the fence early in the morning, and everyone stood on tiptoe and stretched their necks to watch the activities being held in the fence.
"Is that really the Zhu Dan patriarch?"
"No, I heard that it is......"
"She's really righteous, and she still comes to see that dead man?"
"Get out of the way, it's called love, go and go!"
Several primitive people chattered, in the middle of the crowd, inside the fence, Lin Yuan was under the escort of a group of Chinese elites, calmly watching the patriarch Zhu Dan, and the other party was slowly walking towards a small hill in the swamp.
"As a traitor, he has been treated very well...... We built him a grave. ”
Lin Yuan said slowly to Patriarch Zhu Dan.
Patriarch Zhu Dan didn't react, still staggering, walking towards the small dirt bag, Lin Yuan found that the patriarch Zhu Dan at this time compared with when he first came to Huadu 4 years ago, his face and body shape have changed greatly, and the original strong and agile body is like an old man in his twilight years at this time, and he can't help but be weak.
I really don't know what happened to the Zhu Dan clan in the past 4 years......
"Mother, is that the patriarch of Zhu Dan? I'm going blind......" The pot-bellied Tu Chieftain stood behind Lin Yuan and couldn't help but comment in a low voice.
The chief of the Bai clan beside him pushed him with his elbow and whispered:
"Don't talk nonsense...... Don't get in trouble......"
"Mess with a hammer...... I didn't expect Zhu Danjiang to be a tyrant, and there will be today, I'm really curious about who can make the Zhu Dan clan fall to today's cowardice? ”
The chief of the Bai clan looked at Patriarch Zhu Dan thoughtfully, sighed softly unconsciously, and said:
"Alas...... That's right, think about how majestic the Zhu Dan clan was back then, even we were forced to pay tribute to them......"
"Hammer Hammer...... Didn't we send wild boars too...... Alas, this is really ...... It seems that we are right to come to the Yan family......"
Lin Yuan's neck moved.
"Shh......h Stop it! ”
The Bai chieftain glared at the Turkish chief fiercely, and then the two of them stood up behind their backs and stopped talking.
With the support of the shirtless white fat man, the patriarch of Zhu Dan slowly walked to the grave of the chief of the Chao clan, slowly bent down, grabbed a handful of soil with his hand, put it under his nose, closed his eyes, took a deep breath, and moved very slowly, at that moment, everyone's eyes were all focused on her, and time seemed to slow down.
"Ah......h
Patriarch Zhu Dan suddenly shouted bitterly, and the piercing cry broke through the sky, obviously out of proportion to her thin figure.
The Yan guards held their spears in their hands.
"You bastard! I'm so miserable to lie...... In the end, you won't even give me a chance to kill you with my own hands!! ”
Patriarch Zhu Dan roared with all her might, and then she threw the dirt in her hand to the ground, trampled the dirt bag under her feet with her feet, and said a few strange tribal words in her mouth.
As soon as the big fat man standing on the side heard the order of the patriarch Zhu Dan, he immediately rushed up and divided five by two, and trampled the small dirt bag into the ground.
Everything came so suddenly, everyone was stunned.
Until the Zhu Dan patriarch finished venting, she seemed to have exhausted the last strength of her body and fell to the ground, and several remnants of the Zhu Dan clan immediately pounced on her and surrounded her own patriarch.
"Karma, let's arrange for everyone to disperse, let's give the Zhu Dan clan some time to calm down."
Lin Yuan said coldly, Ye quickly led the hunters to disperse the crowd watching the excitement, and then took the Zhu Dan clan and his party to a temporary tent.
After everyone calmed down the Zhu Dan clan, the group all retreated, Lin Yuan and a group of Yan tribe leaders walked to the tent together, a thin Zhu Dan girl lowered her head and whispered to Lin Yuan:
"The patriarch wants to meet Lord Yanwang...... See ...... alone"
"Hammer Hammer ......" The Turkish chief was about to scold, Lin Yuan waved his hand, turned his head and said, "Everyone wait for me here for a while, I'll go in alone." ”
With that, he lifted the curtain and walked in.
About half a torch had passed, Lin Yuan opened the curtain and walked out, and several people from the Zhu Dan clan hurriedly rushed in.
"It's okay, your patriarch is asleep...... Take care of it, she's also suffered a lot of crimes......"
Lin Yuan turned his head and said to a few remnants of the Zhu Dan clan.
The Turkish chieftain grabbed Lin Yuan's arm and asked curiously:
"Flame King! What's that, what did she say? ”
Lin Yuan smiled slightly, didn't say anything, just walked forward slowly, and the chiefs of the various clans looked at each other for a moment, so they had to follow closely behind, following Lin Yuan closely.
Lin Yuan took a large group of chiefs of various tribes and left the Huadu camp like this, and walked to a corn field, the golden corn field fluttered gently in the breeze, a prosperous scene.
There was no one around, except for the leaders of the five major tribes, and then there were the Yan hunters who were in charge of guarding in the distance, and there were no other people around, Lin Yuan cleared his throat, looked at the burning mountains in the sky, and the bloody sunset, and then he sighed, and said in a voice that only the people around him could hear:
"Alas...... The mountain rain is coming, the wind is full of buildings......"
The Turkish chieftain frowned slightly, Fu Xi repeatedly recited what Lin Yuan said, and suddenly, he seemed to understand the meaning of the words, and immediately showed an expression of sudden realization, and couldn't help but add a little respect to Lin Yuan.
Lin Yuan paused for a moment before continuing: "Just now, Patriarch Zhu Dan told me what happened in the mountains in the past three years......
The surrounding people didn't dare to come out, quietly waiting for Lin Yuan's next words.
“…… The Zhu Dan clan had actually encountered the raiding forces of the Jiuli tribe a long time ago, of course, the Jiuli tribe was not the opponent of the Zhu Dan clan at that time, and soon, they wiped out the raiding team, but the Zhu Dan clan also realized that the other party was a powerful tribal alliance, and in order to deal with the strong enemy, they urgently needed more resources...... As they prepared to defend themselves against the enemy, they passed through the Tu ...... I learned about the Yan pottery......"
The Bai chief glared at the Turkish chieftain, who stuck out his tongue.
“…… Later, as you all know, out of curiosity about pottery, Patriarch Zhu Dan came to the Yan tribe with you as a guest, in fact...... In the beginning, she was going to trade with us normally, but she entrusted the matter to an incompetent person, and that was the Nest Clan...... The chief of the Youchao clan has great ambitions, and he is bent on annexing the Zhu Dan clan by marrying the Zhu Dan patriarch, and this matter has become his best opportunity to invite merit......"
“…… So, the chief of the Chao clan and his hunters wanted to sneak up on the Yan clan through false transactions, and forcibly plundered the technology of making pottery, but fortunately, we saw through it and killed it in Huadu......"
“…… Later, although the Zhu Dan tribe did not look forward to the return of the Chao clan, they realized that something was wrong, but they had no time to take care of it, because the Jiuli tribe soon began a huge invasion operation, they first sent a large number of raiding teams, smuggled across the Zhu Dan River from the upstream, and plundered around in the hinterland of the Zhu Dan tribe, creating chaos and severely affecting the logistics and food sources of the Zhu Dan tribe...... The Zhu Dan clan did not sit still, they sent a large number of hunters to track these raiding teams around, but they always failed to catch the main force of the other party, and in order to catch these wandering enemies, the Zhu Dan clan spent a lot of hunter resources, and the prey hunted was greatly reduced......"
"In the process of more than two years of looting and counter-looting, the vitality of the Zhu Dan tribe was exhausted, they began to lack food, the tribal alliance was disheartened, and soon, in the sudden river crossing attack launched by the Jiuli tribe last year, the Zhu Dan tribe was unfortunately wiped ......out."
Hearing this, the Turkish chiefs and the Bai chiefs couldn't help but "Ah! With a sigh, the Turkish chief said in surprise:
"This ...... The Zhu Dan clan was exterminated last year?? Nai's hammer! This can't be?! The Zhu Dan clan has tens of thousands of strong stone axe warriors, and they also have sharpshooters who are good at throwing stones, and they rely on the Zhu Danjiang moat, it is impossible to be destroyed! ”
Lin Yuan slowly turned around, stared at the Tu chieftain, and said:
"But they were exterminated! This is what the patriarch Zhu Dan told me personally, if you don't believe it, you can go to those homeless people and ask around, I think, there should be people who have witnessed that battle......"
“…… I'm hammering ......," the Turkish chief frowned, but didn't ask any further.
Lin Yuan shrugged his shoulders and continued:
"After being wiped out, the patriarch of Zhu Dan successfully escaped under the protection of the subordinates of the loyal ministers, and began to wander around the mountains, they suffered a lot, and the patriarch of Zhu Dan also became ill because of depression, and became what he is today......
The Bai chieftain rolled his eyes and said:
"That'...... Lord Yanwang...... What about wildfires......? ”
Lin Yuan nodded and said:
"The mountain fire was indeed set by the Jiuli tribe, but the purpose of the fire was not to destroy the mountains and forests and burn human beings...... Although, the consequences they have caused in the past few days are about ......"
"And what did they set the fire for?" Fu Xi asked tentatively.
Lin Yuan's eyes closed slightly, turned to face the distance, and said softly:
"They're looking for someone...... A man who once threatened them......"
Everyone looked at each other, and after a while, Patriarch Huaxu said in a low voice:
"Well, it seems that yes, that year, when we crossed the river and wandered to the plains, we were also chased and persecuted by the Gaoshan clan of the Jiuli Alliance, and at that time, we heard that their king of the god of war was desperately looking for a person with a special mark on his body in the entire mountain...... It looks like there's obsidian on your wrist or something......"
Lin Yuan turned around and pulled the animal skin on his wrist tightly.
The chief of the Suiren clan broke the silence, he took out the bone blade at his waist, slashed at the dead wood beside him, and said:
"I know who they're looking for! Hum! I didn't expect them to hold a grudge like this...... Haha, for so many years, I think that those who have been able to threaten the Jiuli clan in the whole world, except for our Yan King, no one can do it! ”
"Huh?! The Flame King? ”
The crowd was amazed.
