Chapter 20: Knives and Meat
The Mu clansmen, who were in the Moha clan, carried the body of the old patriarch and followed Ruyan Zhenxiong into the Jialan Forest.
The death of the old patriarch was very strange, and when the clansmen left the tent, he was fine, but after talking to Ru Yan Zhenxiong, he was depressed and died with hatred.
The reason for this, the clansmen did not dare to ask, and Ruyan Zhenxiong did not want to say it.
Mu Feng obeyed the old patriarch's last order and personally handed over the bone sword to Hu Niu.
The jungle was full of thorns, and the group walked with difficulty.
Hu Niu was very worried, and occasionally saw that the ruby in the coffin of the cold jade spirit crystal was missing, and asked her father curiously: "Abba, I remember that there is a red gem on my mother's chest, so it is gone?"
Ruyan Zhenxiong smiled awkwardly and explained: "That beast misses his son, I'll give them some time to reunite, and when we settle down, I'll get it back." ”
"Is that really the case?" Tiger Girl asked with both hands holding the bone sword in her arms and tilting her head.
"That's still fake, when did Abba lie to you. ”
Whether it is true or false, Hu Niu didn't ask, her hands were tightly holding the bone sword, as if she was holding Mu Ge.
And Mu Ge was also in a jungle at this time.
Compared to the Jialan Forest, the place where he is much stranger.
All the surrounding trees and vegetation are dark red, as if they have grown by absorbing blood.
The trees are leafy and difficult for sunlight to shine into, giving it an eerie feel.
At the moment when the old patriarch died, Mu Ge suddenly felt a sharp cramping pain in his chest.
The heart seemed to be pinched by an invisible big hand, almost pinching it.
An inexplicable sense of panic swept through my body, but I didn't know why.
The sudden cramping pain in his chest, the pain was out of breath, and the sloppy old man sat quietly next to him, watching quietly, without the slightest sympathy and comfort.
Untie the wine gourd on your waist, take a small sip very cherished, and sip your mouth to taste the aroma of wine.
The place where Mu Ge is located is the Hydroxy Mountains north of the Far North Wasteland, and there is also a nickname here, called the Gate of Hell.
Legend has it that there is a huge mountain stream in the mountains, like the bloody mouth of a fierce beast, which is the entrance to hell.
It is also rumored that in ancient times, the gods of heaven fought here, staining the mountains with blood, and all the trees and vegetation were stained red with the blood of the gods.
There are many other rumors, which are even more unrealistic.
And Mu Ge came here to follow the footsteps of his clansmen.
The sloppy old man told him that some of the Mu clan members had left the tribe and entered the Hydro Wu Mountains, but where they had gone still had to be carefully searched.
After a long time, the cramping pain in his chest gradually receded, and Mu Ge lay flat on the ground, his mind blank.
"Little cub, get up, don't lie down and pretend to be dead. The sloppy old man squinted at Mu Ge, as if he couldn't hide anything from him.
"Senior, what kind of world is the wilderness, what kind of world is it?" Mu Ge didn't get up, but asked strange questions inexplicably.
The sloppy old man thought for a moment and asked, "Do you like to eat meat?"
Although he didn't know what the relationship between the two had before, Mu Ge still replied truthfully: "I like it." ”
"Do you have meat to eat?"
"Yes, the Shepherd clan has a hunting area, and if you hunt wild beasts, you will have meat to eat. ”
"Do you still have it now?"
"Now?" Mu Ge closed his eyes, pondering the scruffy old man's question.
The Mu clan was divided, and the clansmen were almost completely killed and wounded, even if they barely held the territory, they couldn't stop the oppression of the Moha clan.
Moreover, now, the cattle and sheep used for tribute have fallen into the hands of horse thieves, and without cattle and sheep, there is no way to exchange the right to use the territory hunting area from the Zuoqiu clan.
The Mu clan has nothing at this time.
"Now, no. As the tears of the two men slipped from the corners of their eyes, Mu Ge replied truthfully.
The sloppy old man pulled out the stopper of the wine gourd, endured and endured, he couldn't help it, took a sip of wine, and said: "There is no meat, but you have a knife in your hand, and if you want to eat meat, you pull out a knife to grab it, this is the wild world." ”
"The Zuoqiu clan has rules, and the clans must not easily provoke trouble between them, unless they swear to declare war on the sky, and the strength of my Mu clan, how can we..."
"Childish, let me ask you, who set the rules?" the sloppy old man interrupted directly without waiting for Mu Ge to finish speaking.
"Of course, the rules are set by the Zuoqiu clan..."
"Won't you make a rule to tell them to listen?"
"I, how can I do it..."
Speaking of the rise, the old man picked up the wine gourd again, took a big sip carelessly, his distressed facial features were twisted together, and he said to Mu Ge after a long time: "There are no rules in the wilderness, whoever has a big fist will listen to whomever he wants, if one day, you beat them all to the ground, then your words are the rules." ”
"This," said Mugo.
The words of the sloppy old man, as long as it is a man, he will be aroused by the pride and ambition in his heart, who does not want to stand on the top of the highest mountain in the wild continent and look down on the earth.
The rules of heaven and earth are determined in a word, and good and evil are right and wrong in a word.
"But who can do that?" Mu Ge opened his eyes, looked at the dark red branches above his head, and sighed helplessly.
"The former Aragami can do it, she is really strong...", sloppy and emotional, infinitely melancholy.
"Aragami?" I remember that the old patriarch said that Aragami does not come out, the battle flag does not stand, and the battle flag is the Mu totem, but I didn't expect to hear this name again from the sloppy old man's mouth, and hurriedly asked: "Senior, do you know Aragami?"
"You've heard of little dolls?" was beyond the scruffy old man's expectations.
Mu Ge didn't rush to tell the truth, and explained perfunctorily: "It has been recorded in the classics of the clan that he is the strongest man in the wilderness. ”
"The strongest man in the wilderness?" The old man choked on his own saliva, coughed constantly, stared at Mu Ge with his eyes, and said after a long time: "The absurdity is a woman, the strongest woman in the wilderness." ”
"Female... Woman..."Mu Ge awkwardly repeated the sloppy old man's words, not knowing what to say.
He could never have imagined that in the Wild Continent, a world where men are respected, the legendary Aragami turned out to be a woman.
"Little cub, if you haven't heard of it, you haven't heard of it, pretend to be something, hurry up and hurry. The old man urged impatiently.
Mu Ge didn't explain, he got up in two by three, and followed the sloppy old man to the depths of the Hydroxy Mountains.
I have been thinking about what the old man said before.
He has long understood the law of survival in the wilderness, and everything is respected by strength.
The Moha clan is strong, so he can bully the Mu clan again and again, invade the hunting area, and snatch the prey.
The Zuoqiu clan is strong, so it can set rules for other tribes, no need to hunt and hunt, and the tribute of other tribes alone is enough to worry about food and clothing.
Everything is based on great strength, but what the sloppy old man said is even clearer and more thorough.
At this moment, he made up his mind and vowed to be a strong man, and strive to become the most powerful man in the Savage Continent, a man who sets the rules.
He wants to lead the real patriarch of the Mu clan to live a life of abundant food and clothing.
